Chapter 045: Turbulent Relationship
I was used to Yi Chenjing's indifference, and the sudden concern made Bai Qige unable to deal with it, and the sable cloak covered her body to cover the wind and snow, and also covered her eyes that recognized herself to see everything clearly. (Download_Floor.)
Does he hate her or not?
"Why are you stunned, hurry back while it's still dark." Yi Chenjing pushed Bai Qige, but the force was very small, just urging.
Bai Qige didn't move, but took off his cloak and handed it to Yi Chenjing, his serious expression could not be ignored: "Yi Chenjing, do we have to be suspicious of each other like this?" Regardless of the final conclusion, why can't we be honest with each other until the answer is revealed? ”
Because she had been watching silently, seeing him struggling in the whirlpool of power and intrigue, and seeing him exhausted in the intrigues, she was even more moved by Yi Chenjing's occasional gentleness and kindness, which was the real him, the man she couldn't hate at all.
"As long as you don't embarrass the Bai family, I can help you unconditionally to the end, provided that you trust me, just as you trust Zhan Ting." Bai Qige didn't know if his words would be ridiculed by him, maybe he would accept it, maybe he would be sarcastic, who knows? She just wants to say what is in her heart, the endless suspicions are too tiring, she is tired, and so is he.
With a soft sigh in the cold, Bai Qige stuffed the cloak into Yi Chenjing's hand: "I don't know what others say about you, I only believe what I saw with my own eyes." Your filial piety to Concubine Jing, your care for Sister Su Yan and Su Rao, and your righteousness to the war court...... There's no reason, Yi Chenjing, there's no reason why you can't let go of your past grievances and start over? Just think that Xiao Yingge is dead, and the person standing in front of you is a stranger, a person who can give you advice, this is not okay? ”
The moon hung high in the clear night sky, and the silver moonlight sprinkled down, reflecting Bai Qige's thin cheeks extremely clearly.
At that moment, Yi Chenjing was confused, or rather, shaken.
If she wasn't the culprit who killed Hongxuan, if she was just an ordinary celebrity, trusting her, getting close to her, and plotting with the woman who knew him best in the world, how good would it be.
"I ......" hesitated for a long time, her thin lips that were as pale as water opened slightly, and Bai Qige's heart drifted with Yi Chenjing's deep voice.
However, he failed to answer, and when he finally made up his mind to take a deep breath and answer, an unexpected turn of events suddenly appeared.
With a sharp roar, the sky-breaking arrow was close to Yi Chenjing's arm, piercing through the cloak and nailed to the ground. There was a cracking sound from the treetops a hundred zhang away, and Bai Qige heard the sound, only to see a corner of the clothes quickly disappear behind the courtyard wall, and a longbow lying quietly on the ground where the snow was piled up.
It's not uncommon to be followed, but this is the first time they've been attacked by the two of them. Bai Qige's body was about to chase after him as soon as he moved, but Yi Chenjing hurriedly stretched out his hand and pulled the weak woman back to him, with a face full of anger: "Looking for death?!" ”
"Why not chase? I got away with it this time, but what about next time? What about next time? Bai Qige shook off Yi Chenjing's hand and took a big step back, her frowning brows were full of impatience, "Concubine Jing was almost killed before because you were too careless, how many people in this palace and outside the palace want your life, do you know?" None of the people who follow you are safe, and it will be in vain not to find the culprit hiding behind the scenes and ready to give you a fatal blow! ”
Yi Chenjing, who was loudly refuted, was even more angry, but the temperature in his eyes gradually turned cold: "Yes, the people who follow me are not safe, that's why you are in such a hurry to leave, right?" Keep telling me to believe you, have you ever believed me? How many times have I given you a chance, and how many times have you let me down? Let me tell you plainly, the person who shot the arrow just now was Su Jinyan, your most trusted subordinate, you are amazing, you are not afraid of anything, so why don't you go to him? Find your so-called culprit theory or settle any disputes! ”
"Why do you only suspect him? Just because he is stronger than you everywhere and stands in your way to usurp power? The sneer was cool, Bai Qige lowered his voice, and the rare warmth dissipated a moment ago, "What can the person he sent say?" If Su Jinyan wants to kill you, can she miss so close? It's not just you who can't help yourself, compare your heart to your heart, just because you think about harming him all the time, you will think that he will also harm you. I hate people who think they know everything, they're stupid. ”
The facts are in front of him, Su Jinyan, who can track the two of them without being discovered, is by no means an idle person, and it is not too far away to shoot an arrow but fails to hit the target, but passes between the two more accurately, it is obvious that the other party's purpose is not to hurt or kill anyone, but just to prevent Bai Qige and Yi Chenjing from getting closer.
After a heated argument, both of them became silent, trying to suppress their anger in the silence, while also quickly sorting out their thoughts.
Bai Qige bit her lower lip and didn't say a word, the unknown emotions that had sprung up since Yi Chenjing said that the person who attacked her was Su Jinyan made her very unhappy. Su Jinyan is Yi Chenxuan's subordinate, but Yi Chenxuan clearly promised her that she would never do anything to hurt her siblings, is even this sentence false?
It is impossible to tell who is real and who is fake, or Yi Chenxuan and Yi Chenjing, the two men she has the most contact with, are lying to her.
Such a heart-wrenching speculation.
"Forget it, I just said." picked up the cloak and returned it to Yi Chenjing, Bai Qige suddenly lost interest and didn't want to try to communicate with him anymore. With Yi Chenxuan between the two, what else can you say clearly?
The two people who were still very kind when they left the dust Xuan returned one after the other, their faces were not very good-looking, and Concubine Jing and Su Yan Surao looked at each other and didn't know whether to persuade or not. Seeing that Bai Qige wanted to rest early under the pretext that he was tired, Yi Chenjing followed behind silently like a subordinate, and stopped being depressed after talking a few times, until Huixi stopped outside Bai Qige's room - not only did he stop but not stop, Bai Qige stopped in front of the door, and refused to even let him step in the threshold.
"I'm going to rest, please come back."
"Oh."
Yi Chenjing answered but didn't move, blocking the door to cover the moonlight.
"Yi Chenjing," Bai Qige was so angry that she wanted to laugh, and in desperation, she raised her voice by three points, "I said, I'm going to rest." ”
This time he finally made a move, Yi Chenjing's hand holding the door frame changed from left to right, and Yu Che couldn't help but snicker when he saw it with a dull face, so he simply rushed to Bai Qige's side and quipped: "Your Highness, but you want to whisper?" I think I'd better go out first, so as not to be scolded in my heart. ”
"Stay inside." Bai Qige raised his foot and kicked back the side of Yu Che's leg, Yu Che deliberately entered the bedroom with a sigh, covering his mouth and laughing in a low voice. The maid who originally had a huge opinion on Yi Chenjing didn't know what kind of demon she was in, but recently she has become more and more unruly, Bai Qige can only stare at her eyes and pretend to be pretending to be pretending to be convulsive: "If you have anything to say, either say it or leave quickly, otherwise you will stand at the door until tomorrow morning." ”
After finishing speaking, he was about to close the door, Yi Chenjing hurriedly stretched out his hand to resist it, and pulled Bai Qige back to the door with the other hand, and it took another half a day before he made up his mind to speak.
"I said it too much, don't forget it. During this time, I was so busy with the expedition that I didn't have time to tell you many things, and I wanted to have a good talk with you when I was free, instead of arguing when we met. ”
He hesitated when he wanted to be open and frank, and when she gave up and was too lazy to care about him anymore, Bai Qige didn't understand whether Yi Chenjing was overly cautious or slow to react to others, and talking to him was more tiring than playing the piano to a cow. However, his intention to ease the relationship has been a great progress, compared to his ruthless destruction and boundless torture when he first came to Yaoguo, and now the situation is not too much for her to burn incense and worship the Buddha.
"I'll talk about it when you're done." Bai Qige also said softly, and threw it to the side, and Yi Chenjing took her hand and slammed it on the door frame.
No matter how good the kung fu is, it will hurt Yi Chenjing retracted his hand in pain, and when he looked at the woman with a flat expression, his face added a little helplessness: "I don't want to argue with you about Yi Chenxuan, whether the person who shoots the arrow is Su Jinyan You can just ask Zhan Ting, it is not a matter of a day or two that he is hiding around Chenxuan, and the reason why Xiao Yu was placed in Huixi Ju by Zhan Ting is to protect your safety when we are away." ”
"I'm safe without you."
Automatically omitting Bai Qige's sneering, Yi Chenjing lowered his voice, and his expression suddenly became solemn: "Whether you can listen to it or not, I still have to remind you once again that stay away from Yi Chenxuan, he is not someone you can trust for life - it has nothing to do with the contradiction between me and him, many things are not as simple as you see." ”
It's not simple, no one can say clearly, whether it's the seven princes who are obscure in Taoguang, or the five princes who are wise and self-protecting, in short, no one in this palace is clean and transparent, and she can only be blamed for her bad luck, and she was accidentally involved in this imperial power dispute that has nothing to do with her.
"I'm tired, I'll talk about it tomorrow. By the way, you haven't told me about Zhan Ting and Li'er yet, come back early if you have time, Concubine Jing Niangniang and Sister Su Yan won't be able to eat well and sleep well when you're away. ”
"If I don't come back, you can go to the imperial study to find me, didn't you give you a pass?" Seeing Bai Qige patting his waist, Yi Chenjing nodded, "My father is open-minded and informal, and there has never been a ban on restricting the movement of female dependents, so be careful on the road." ”
Bai Qige suddenly found that the earlier dispute seemed to be in vain, and the two of them returned to the original point after going around, intentionally or unintentionally saying words of concern but each was suspicious and alienated, and the feeling of being separated continued unabated.
Frustration caused a slight sigh, and finally took the initiative to break the deadlock, but it turned out that the two of them were not enough to trust each other and abandon their previous suspicions, and she was still alone on the road to go, guarding against him and using her brains for him.
Standing in the wind for a long time, his body was almost cold, Yi Chenjing looked at the hole on the cloak that was pierced by a sharp arrow, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, and said in a low voice, but turned his back away. Bai Qige thought he was leaving, so he stepped forward and was about to push the door, but Yi Chenjing suddenly turned around, and the two were bumping into each other.
There was no cold wind whistling in his ears, and only the whispering was almost inaudible.
"Qige, can I really trust you?"
