Chapter 171: Promise by example
There are always some places in the palace that are not visible, such as the secret pavilion where the convicted eunuchs and court ladies are punished, or some spacious and bright residences that hide filth and filth.
The little palace maid in the remote hall was startled when she brought tea into the house, and almost dropped the tray in her hand on the ground, she had seen the twin sisters in the side room of Ji Chenxuan, one plump and graceful, the other delicate and lovely, especially the younger sister Su Rao, lively and smart is very likable, who can connect the treasure in the heart of the concubine with the thin and trance woman in front of her.
Being too thin made Su Rao's cheekbones very prominent, and the clothes on her body were fluttering and difficult to fit, especially the frightened and hidden eyes, even the little palace maid felt pitiful and unbearable when she saw it.
"Cuiyue, let everyone outside go down." Qi took the tea and commanded in a low voice.
At present, people can't ask more, who dares to talk more, it will be a pain of flesh and skin, and if it is heavy, it will be a matter of life. The little palace maid glanced at Su Rao sympathetically and then bowed her head and exited the room, closing the door tightly according to the custom of the five princes.
"Prime Minister Zuo personally told you that he already knew the whereabouts of Concubine Jing, right?" Picking up the teacup, Xu is tea is too hot to eat, Yi Chenxuan frowned.
Su Rao nodded solemnly: "It was the Prime Minister himself, and he also said that the person is in a certain mountain, and the people accompanying him can say it clearly." ”
The teacup was heavily placed on the table and made a loud noise, and Su Rao and Qi Shi couldn't help but tremble and subconsciously bowed their heads.
"Old fox, the tail is well hidden. Okay, it's inconvenient for you to stay here for too long, so as not to be suspicious of outsiders, if there is any news that comes to the dust Xuan in time, it will not hurt you. Yi Chenxuan retreated, holding his forehead in contemplation.
He originally thought that Yi Chenjing and Bai Qige had both died on the river in Xichu, and the pursuing subordinates returned to the intelligence and swore that the bodies of those two people had been sunk, otherwise how could he sit back and relax for so many days. But he also heard that Xiao Baishan did not return to the imperial capital but took a horse from Lingyun City to start searching all the way south, Xiao Baishan is not a brainless person, and he will not make a reckless search after many days, there must be a reason. What is hateful is the cunning old fox of Prime Minister Zuo, who knew where Concubine Jing was hiding but didn't tell him, if Concubine Jing was in hand, it would not be difficult to clean up Yi Chenjing, arrogance is false, but Yi Chenjing's filial piety is true.
Seeing that Yi Chenxuan's face was not good, Qi didn't know what to say to make him happy, so he had to find some gossip to break the silence: "The Seventh Prince has only been on the expedition for more than three months, how can the sister of the Su family lose weight like that." A girl who used to be eye-catching, now looks like she is in a trance. ”
"She brought the wolf into the house, she did it herself." Yi Chenxuan sneered, his eyes full of disdain, "There are a few women that Prime Minister Zuo has used are not like this. If you look at her, you will inevitably be scarred, old and new, and that's not all, those pictures in your mind that are worse than death will definitely be remembered for a lifetime. Prime Minister Zuo is not like me, at least I will hurt you when I am in a good mood, and you should be grateful to me in comparison. ”
"Qi'er's life belongs to His Royal Highness, and His Highness should treat the concubine no matter how he treats it." Qi stood behind Yi Chenxuan with low eyebrows, and when his shoulders were soft and broad, the bruises and bruises on his wrists loomed.
Who knows her suffering?
After serving for many years, he is not as high as a male pet, he is glamorous in front of people, and in the room that no one sees, he is just a tool to vent his desires while taking medicine and letting Yi Chenxuan play with and destroy.
But she can't hate it, she just loves, the distortion of love, the madness of love, and even the revenge design of Bai Qige at the expense of grace.
"Jinyan." With a cold whisper, the blue-eyed man outside the room pushed the door in response. Yi Chenxuan threw a pill with a calm face, and seemed to be extremely reluctant: "I'll give you a task, if you can do it well, I won't pursue the previous matter." ”
Even if Yi Chenxuan didn't say that Su Jinyan knew what the mission was, if Yi Chenjing didn't die, Concubine Jing would be the trump card, and his task was to kidnap Concubine Jing unknowingly to blackmail Yi Chenjing, who might still be alive. After putting away the antidote and silently exiting the room, Su Jinyan looked up at the sky and saw a goshawk flying towards the west in the distance.
As soon as he raised his hand, the cooing and whining pigeon on the courtyard wall flew into his palm, and the note in the copper ring was only four simple words: It has arrived in Xichu.
The corners of his lips were hooked with a light smile, and the face of a woman who was more delicate than a woman was rarely bright and peaceful, and it was the only time in his life that he smiled purely and cleanly.
In the cage, he also has secrets that Yi Chenxuan doesn't know, where Concubine Jing is, who is the person who guides Xiao Baishan, and the fact that Yi Chenjing did not die quietly as in the report.
Yi Chenjing is still alive, and that is the best medicine to offset the pain of his poisonous hair every night.
The gray-haired goshawk soars in the sky, its wings stretched freely. God-given spiritual creatures are always more intelligent than ordinary birds, Xiao Yu knows very well that its destination is a high mountain on the land of Xichu, a few days ago it met the master's master there and returned to the master with a dense handwritten note, today, its task is to take a few words and go to Xichu again, where to wait for the long-lost reunion.
Xiao Zhen is still on the way, but someone arrived in Xichu one step ahead of it, and it was the arrival of this eagle that made the great political change in the country of Yaoguo not long after, and another wind and rain brewed silently.
After Bai Qige was able to walk, she was driven back to Yiye Villa by the poison doctor, fortunately, her injury was not serious, the wound was quickly and completely healed under the nourishment of the miracle medicine, Yi Chenjing's injury was almost better, the two of them and Fu Chu and Ye Huawan roughly set the route back to the imperial capital and waited for the war court to come, but one evening when everything was arranged, the unexpected guest suddenly appeared in Yiye Villa.
"Ning Gongzi." When he saw the unruly figure in the hall of Yiye Villa, Bai Qige couldn't believe his eyes.
"White girl. How are you here. I heard that you and the general are both ......" Ning Xi's drunkenness also showed a considerable degree of surprise, but Feng Wujiang behind him snorted coldly, turned his back and refused to greet Bai Qige.
At the end of the Northern Expedition, Bai Qige handed over Bai Haoyu to Ning Xidrunk, and asked him to send his injured younger brother back to Zhaoguo Baifu, and later found that Lingyun City had been bloodied and worried about whether they had escaped the catastrophe, but at that time, she and Yi Chenjing themselves were unable to protect themselves and had no time to take care of him, and these things were left behind.
Ye Huawan looked at the two of them and was quite surprised: "Huh." Boss Ning and Sister Bai know each other. I thought Boss Ning only knew people who were doing business,"
"Business is business, friends are friends, and besides, the white girl and the general are also trading partners, and I have made a lot of money on this expedition to the north." Ning Xi laughed drunkly.
"On the way to the north, thanks to Ning Gongzi, a merchant who accompanied the army, otherwise the soldiers could only eat dry food and drink water, and kill the enemy on the battlefield with a sad face." Bai Qige didn't know why, he felt comfortable when he saw Ning Xi drunk, and unconsciously smiled and joked, "But I don't know if Ning Gongzi makes more or loses more, those jars of frost flower wine are said to be worth a lot of money, and now if you ask me for wine money, I will definitely not be able to pay it." ”
Ning Xi shook his head drunk: "The white girl likes it, even if Ning is willing to give away ten altars and one hundred altars, she can still get a few thousand taels of silver." After pondering for a while, Ning Xidrunk finally turned the topic to the point: "By the way, on the way back from Zhaoguo, I heard from the people that the white girl and the general were ambushed by the remnants of the Huoluo River in Lingyun City, and it seemed that they had found the bones, and even the emperor ordered to ask the master of the Faneng Temple to chant the scriptures, but I didn't expect to see the white girl here, I don't know how to describe this feeling." ”
Bai Qige's heart was hot, and his smile was even warmer: "It's a long story, I'll talk about it slowly and listen to you when I have time." Xiao Yu is still thanks to Ning Gongzi for his help, and I have nothing to repay, so why don't we eat together at night. In my spare time, I learned a few meals from Miss Ye......"
"Do you want to thank him, or do you want to poison him?" The mocking tone interrupted the conversation suddenly, Bai Qige's expression froze, and his eyes were full of resentment. Yi Chenjing, who came in with Fu Chu, wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, and when he saw that Ning Xi and Feng Wujiang were drunk, he didn't say hello, and walked straight to Bai Qige's side, and deliberately hugged Bai Qige's waist to make an intimate gesture: "Boss Ning is still used to eating those two fish during the Northern Expedition." If you like it, I'll bake it for you myself next time. ”
Or just roast him, Yi Chenjing thought very seriously.
The pale golden long eyebrows furrowed slightly, Ning Xi sniffed drunk, and looked at Ye Huawan with curiosity on his face: "Master Ye Zhuang, don't you do the business of north-south licensed goods now?" ”
"Do it, of course you do it, who says you can't do it." Ye Huawan was also inexplicable.
"Oh," Ning Xidrunk nodded thoughtfully, "I thought I had changed my career to vinegar." ”
Rao is Bai Qige laughed out loud no matter how bad she was, seeing that Yi Chenjing's face was blue and not good, she couldn't help but sigh that someone could finally make this arrogant and stinky prince deflated.
Ning Xi came drunk with a relaxed atmosphere, although Yi Chenjing didn't want to see him, but seeing that Bai Qige was in a much better mood and spirit, he was also a lot more relieved, so he simply couldn't hide out of sight and didn't bother to hide to the side to tidy up things, which became the same scenery as Feng Wujiang who didn't say a word but was full of resentment.
In order to prevent everyone from being poisoned, dinner was still made by Ye Hua late, the little girl had a spicy personality but had amazing cooking skills, plus some local special ingredients brought by Ning Xi drunk, several people had a satisfying dinner. After the meal, Yi Chenjing was taken back to the room by Bai Qige to rest, Ye Huawan followed Fu Chu with a red face and sunflower seeds as she did every day, taking the opportunity to discuss things with Yi Chenjing, Feng Wujiang fell asleep early in line with the principle of not seeing is pure, and Bai Qige and Ning Xidrunk sat in front of the round table in the quiet hall, a plate of side dishes, a jar of sake, and a pot of hot tea, fulfilling the details of the previous appointment.
"Xichu is located in a remote area, cold all year round, there are a lot of rare and rare medicinal materials and cold-resistant animal skins on the mountain, and I made an appointment with Yiye Villa to collect it regularly a few years ago. This year, I caught up with the turmoil in various parts of the Northern Expedition, and I thought that this place should not be affected too much, so I came over first, but I happened to meet the old man, and it was indeed the will of God. Ning Xi was drunk and smiled, poured a cup of tea and pushed it to the side of Bai Qi singer, "Don't drink, it's not good for the wound." ”
Bai Qige shook his head and pushed away the teacup, stubbornly pouring wine: "I was chased all the way and had nowhere to go, I heard that the poison doctor could cure the poison on my body, so I came here." I don't even know what to do with you, Gongzi Xie Ning, if you were also affected by the remnants of the Huoluo River slaughter that day, I would not be able to feel at ease in my life. ”
"It's easy to thank me." The bright eyes narrowed slightly, the smile on the lips was lazy and light, and Ning Xi stared at Bai Qige with half a wine glass in his eyes, and his tone was indifferent, "It's better for the white girl to make a promise,"
