Chapter 314: Belated Help
Bai Qige was woken up by crying, the kind of crying that was very small and light, but it was not real.
When she opened her eyes, she couldn't see clearly, only that there was someone in front of her, who called her name in a very familiar tone and voice, and it seemed that a gentle finger wiped away the wetness on her cheeks that she couldn't tell if it was tears or sweat.
"Did you have a nightmare, White Girl,"
"Ning Gongzi ......," After a few long breaths, Bai Qige could finally see who the person in front of her was, but she didn't expect to see Ning Xidrunk at such a time and in this kind of place, and the two people behind him who should not have appeared.
Ning Xidrunk carefully helped Bai Qige sit up, took the white silk and gently wiped the sweat beads from her forehead: "Wu Siying Military Division and General Lu, they heard that General Bai had an accident and brought people to come overnight, I also met on the road to pick up a cheap one to come to see you, at this time, with the help of the Anling Army, the Yao Army has retreated outside the moat, and the white girl doesn't have to worry too much." ”
When I wanted to contact for help, I couldn't get in touch, but now that people are in front of me, it's ...... It's too late.
Bai Qige closed his eyes and took a nap for a while, and only opened his eyes when he had the strength in his body, and a silent and bitter smile appeared on his pale face: "It's not so easy to break through the blockade of the remote army, haven't I slept for a long time?"
Ning Xi was drunk and groaned slightly, and nodded slightly: "It's been almost three days, and at that time, you have been asleep since you fainted in the city, and Brother Fu used some awakening medicine to wake you up just now." General Bai and his wife are very worried about you, so let's freshen up and take a look at them. ”
Has it been three days, Bai Qige was in a daze, and suddenly remembered that according to the customs of Zhaoguo, today should be the day of Bai Haocheng's burial.
"Third Miss, Third Miss, don't move, your body is weak like this......" Wu Siying hurriedly stopped Bai Qige who suddenly got up, and with a little force, Bai Qige was pushed back to his original place. Shaking his head and sighing, Wu Siying looked guilty: "General Bai committed suicide, according to custom, he will be buried in seven days, don't be too anxious about the third lady." I only hate that I hesitated and didn't dare to make a decision, otherwise I could have stopped General Bai from doing stupid things earlier......"
"It's not that I don't dare to make a decision, if the second brother hadn't died, you would never have come to help." Bai Qige pushed away Wu Siying and said coldly.
The situation of Zhaoguo An Ling must have known for a long time, after being besieged for so long, why did they not come early or late to appear at this time, just because the news of the previous request for help was not sent, if so, they should not know anything this time, not that Bai Haocheng had just died They led their troops to arrive, and heroically broke through the blockade of the remote army and entered the capital.
Wu Siying's head hung lower when she asked this, her face was blushing, and it took a while for a while to squeeze out a few words from her throat: "It's me, it's me who I'm sorry for General Bai, I'm sorry for General Bai...... I'm sorry for my mentor and his old man......"
Even if he couldn't see his expression, the remorse and guilt in his tone couldn't be faked, Bai Qige wanted to scold his face and angrily reprimand him for his coy attitude, but seeing that Wu Siying really regretted it, he couldn't say what he wanted to say. After sitting for a while, Bai Qige finally had some spirit: "What is the situation now, does An Ling plan to take over Liang Shicheng in the name of reinforcements, the battle has been fought for so long, and the Yao army has already suffered a small half of the casualties, if An Ling jumps out at this time and puts all the eight thousand elite soldiers on board, it is not impossible to fight against the remaining forces of the Yao army, and the profits of the fishermen are very good." ”
"What do you mean by that," Without waiting for Wu Siying to answer, Lu Feidu, who had been holding his arms and watching coldly, was annoyed, turned sideways and strode to Bai Qige's bed, his two thick eyebrows almost upside down, "Our lord didn't plan to wade into this troubled water, if it weren't for the fact that he respected General Bai as a hero, he wouldn't have wasted food and grass to help from all afar, but it turned out to be a danger to you to take advantage of, I really don't know what to do,"
"Is General Lu too much, the white girl just woke up and doesn't know the situation, can't she explain it well," Ning Xi, who had always been pleasant-looking, looked at Lu Feidu coldly, Lu Feidu seemed to be shocked by his abnormal expression, and snorted coldly and stopped talking.
When people are sad, they will inevitably say some angry words, Wu Siying understands that Bai Qige is too sad and does not care about her, and still stands aside in a low voice: "It is reasonable for the third young lady to have suspicions, our army should have sent troops to help as soon as possible, but it has dragged on until now...... In the end, it is our fault, and the lord blames himself very much for this. ”
"It's really troublesome, you're wrong, he's wrong, it's better to think about how to solve the problem if you have this time." Ning Xi was drunk and waved his hand indiscriminately, but he still looked gentle in the face of Bai Qige, "Bai girl is a smart person, and she will not understand the truth of sadness and moderation." The deceased is gone, and General Bai Quanxia definitely doesn't want to see the white girl too sad and grieved. Wait a minute, I will ask Brother Fu to prescribe a few tonics for the white girl, how to fight against the Yao army, how to protect the people of Zhao Kingdom The matter of how to leave it to these rude and reckless people, the white girl just takes care of her body and takes care of the old general and his wife. ”
Lu Feidu, who was classified into the ranks of "rude and reckless men" by Ning Xidrunk's casual finger, was naturally unconvinced, but wanted to defend but was glared back by Wu Siying, moved his lips, and reluctantly nestled back to the corner with a muffled snort.
The place where Ning Xi is drunk is always full of lightness, but this time Bai Qige really couldn't laugh, and insisted on going to see Bai Jingfu and Old Madam Bai after sitting for a while. walked out of the door with the help of Ning Xidrunk, and as soon as he looked up, he saw Qiao Erhe standing at the door, shrinking his hands and feet, and his eyes were red.
"Erhe, I'm sorry for the crown princess...... I'm sorry General White......"
Poof, the seven-foot man knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Bai Qige with a bang.
Ning Xi was drunk and gasped, and hurriedly helped Qiao Erhe up: "If you kneel down again, the white girl will faint again, she doesn't blame you, and she doesn't need you to apologize for anyone." ”
Bai Qige glanced at Ning Xidrunk and nodded silently.
Qiao Erhe blamed Bai Haocheng's death on Yaoguo, and he was a member of the Yaoguo army, so he recklessly kowtowed and apologized; Ning Xidrunk understands Bai Qige, he understands that Bai Qige will not implicate innocent others even if he resents the murderer who forced Bai Haocheng to death by trickery, whether it is Qiao Erhe, or the unsuspecting soldiers of the Yao Army, she blames the Yao Emperor, and blames the culprit who set the trap, Yi Chenxuan.
The so-called confidant, she is on her mind, and he knows best.
Qiao Erhe, who was not blamed, was overjoyed, completely ignoring the large bruises on his forehead and jumped to Bai Qige's side, and carefully supported Ning Xidrunk left and right. Qiao Dahe died to save Bai Qige during the Northern Expedition, and he has always had a little debt to these two brothers Bai Qige, and Bai Haocheng's death has nothing to do with it, yes, and Qiao Erhe's attitude is still the same as in the past, but Qiao Erhe is not satisfied with this, there are many things he hopes and wants to see.
"Crown Princess, there has been chaos outside the city in the past two days, and people from all three sides have been in and out, are you going?"
"Erhe, the current Yaoguo is the biggest enemy of Zhaoguo." Bai Qige seemed to guess what Qiao Erhe wanted to say, and interrupted lightly without waiting for him to finish.
Qiao Erhe didn't give up, and still surrounded Bai Qige: "Isn't the crown princess worried, His Royal Highness is injured and sick, his forehead is terrifyingly hot, it's rare to have a chance to meet, why doesn't the princess go and take a look, just a glance, just a glance, His Royal Highness really wants the princess to think about it......"
The slow footsteps suddenly stopped, and Bai Qige sighed almost silently, his eyes full of gloom.
"Yaoguo is the enemy of Zhaoguo."
Qiao Erhe waited for a long time, and what he waited for was that this sentence was repeated over and over again.
"Brother Qiao, don't you have to rush back to the Yao Army to take care of the prince, let's go early, see that it may rain at night." Ning Xi was drunk and quietly took Bai Qige from Qiao Erhe's hand, and a pair of blue eyes quietly made a look. Qiao Erhe trusted Ning Xidrunk a lot, and when he saw his eyes, he understood that he had said the wrong thing, hesitated for a while, and turned around to leave after Bai Qige arrived.
Seeing that Ning Xi's drunken eyes drifted in his direction again, Wu Siying dragged away the stunned Lu Feidu, leaving only Ning Xidrunk and Bai Qige in the courtyard.
"Did the white girl decide not to see the prince again?"
"Maybe we shouldn't have seen each other in the first place."
Bai Qige's rare low mood made Ning Xidrunk and sad for a long time, and stood in the courtyard with her for a long time, and only then sighed again when there was a rumbling thunder in the distance: "If he is not the prince of Yaoguo, and the white girl is not a descendant of the Bai family, there probably won't be so many turmoil." ”
Bai Qige smiled stiffly, bitter and silent: "It's the most difficult word in the world to find." ”
"In fact, the white girl may not need to be so ruthless, yes, General Bai was forced to die by the deception of the country, and the innocent people of the country of Zhao are also widely implicated, and the fact that the country is the biggest enemy of the country of Zhao cannot be changed. But state affairs are state affairs, private feelings are private affairs, and the feelings between the prince and the white girl who are not afraid of life and death are precious, and it would be a pity to give up lightly for these reasons. ”
casually took the folding fan in Ning Xidrunk's hand and unfolded it, Bai Qige's fingertips pressed against the jade fan bone, but his eyes looked at the fan with wild grass flying: "The people of Zhaoguo became prisoners because of me, and hundreds of people died because of the Bai family's stubborn defense of the capital, and this burden has inevitably been pressed on my shoulders since I stole the defense map." Ning Gongzi is a free and easy person, never bound by fame and fortune and the world's comments, although I envy it, I will never be able to do it. ”
The folding fan was stuffed back into Ning Xi's drunken hand, and Bai Qige finally showed a melancholy expression, which looked sad, but after all, he no longer endured it alone.
Ning Xi's drunken eyes moved slightly, and there was a hint of questioning in his tone: "Because Yaoguo is the enemy of Zhaoguo, the Bai family who bears the grievances of a country must be consistent with the love and hate of the people of Zhaoguo, even if the white girl and the prince have an unswerving infatuation, they can only be enemies of each other, right, in order not to disappoint the people of Zhaoguo, in order not to let the Bai family be blamed against the will of the people, so the white girl has to sacrifice herself like General Bai, right?"
In a word, the already scarred heart is completely exposed, cruel and straightforward.
All Bai Qige could do was nod slightly.
Ning Xidrunk took a deep breath, and the questioning stopped abruptly, Bai Qige looked up at him, his eyes as clean and clear as jade were dyed with heartache.
"So, after leaving the crown prince, can I take care of the white girl for him?"
