Chapter 186: Trapped in the Lonely Village
When Yi Chenjing woke up from the nightmare, it was already dark outside, and he wiped off the sweat on his forehead and sat quietly for a long time, and his ups and downs slowly calmed down.
The dream was very unclear, very chaotic, vaguely able to recall fragments and fragments, sometimes Concubine Jing looked at him in despair covered in blood, sometimes Bai Qige held the dead baby and sneered at him, her eyes were full of hatred and resentment.
He is also a human being, he will be afraid, he will be afraid, and the most difficult thing in the world for him to face is the scene in his dream - his mother was killed in a row, and Bai Qige hated him.
Now it's love to the point of lingering, but what if she knows that she won't have children again? Can she forget the pain that goes deep into her bone marrow, can she continue to love him like this, and can she be strong in the face of the cruel truth? The child was lost because of him, and all the faults were caused by him, whether it was the humiliation and abuse of her when he first entered the palace, and then Yi Chenxuan approached with ulterior motives, and then she reluctantly gave up the child and chose to help him in his great cause, Bai Qige paid too much and got too little, and he got too much, and what he could repay was too little and too little.
Kissing Anning's sleeping face lightly, his lips pressed against his fair skin and he was reluctant to leave for a long time. Yi Chenjing never denied that he coveted everything about Bai Qige, her cleverness, her strength, her bravery, and the countless benefits she could bring him, just as he agreed to use each other at the beginning, he always remembered what a rare and good chess piece this woman was, and the change now was just to change her identity.
From a pawn to a wife.
He loved her, and he swore an oath to Hongxuan for this, but so far he still couldn't answer the question that Shen Yuqiu asked him.
Sheji Jiangshan, the status of the Dragon Emperor, and Bai Qige, if he could only choose one or the other, how would he choose?
I don't want to think about it, and every time I think about it, I feel a headache.
"Why do you wake up so early?" Bai Qige, who was woken up by his soft lips, was sleepy-eyed, and when she saw that his expression was in a trance, she immediately dissipated her sleepiness and turned over and sat up, clenching her wet palms worriedly, "Did you have a nightmare?" ”
Yi Chenjing nodded and barely squeezed out a smile, hugged his soft body in his arms, and said in a low and deep voice: "Qige, will you hate me one day?" ”
"Maybe, it depends on whether you do something that I hate."
The love story of the capital is the most good, but Bai Qige is a woman who is stingy with some sweet words, and even at this time, she has to say her true thoughts bluntly without embellishment. Yi Chenjing smiled so hard that he didn't know whether he was helpless or bitter, his heart always seemed to be missing something, chaotic, and worried.
Putting on his coat and pulling up his long hair, Bai Qige jumped out of bed past Yi Chenjing, turned around and landed a shallow kiss on the thin lip flap: "It's just a nightmare, don't think too much." The biggest problem with you is that you are too careful, suffering from gains and losses, didn't you say in the letter from the previous war court, Concubine Jing Niangniang is protected by the general of the couple, and it will be fine. ”
"I hope so." After a deep sigh, Qingjun's face was finally no longer depressed. Yi Chenjing rubbed the corners of his forehead to drive away the low mood, and his eyes regained sharpness: "The battle court should be there in a few days, the plan is as usual, the delayed time must be made up, in other ways." ”
Bai Qige understood what he meant, but he couldn't help but be a little worried when he thought of the person who left yesterday, and subconsciously touched the short sword on his waist.
"I don't know what happened to Ning Gongzi, he doesn't know kung fu, and if he is attacked, he will easily get injured."
Jealousy, Yi Chenjing felt upset when he heard the name of Ning Xidrunk, but the angry thing was that Bai Qige was still thinking about the cunning and sinister green-eyed fox at this time, how could he not be annoyed? lifted the quilt and threw it away, and showed his dissatisfaction: "The old man surnamed Feng is quite good at kung fu, this is what you have seen with your own eyes, do you still think that Ning Xidrunk is an ordinary businessman?" I really don't know what kind of ** medicine he poured you, and he talks to him in everything. ”
"I believe he is because he has no malicious intentions, how many times has Ning Gongzi helped us from the Northern Expedition to the present, and has he ever asked for any payment? If he and the old man Feng are really the remnants of Xia An, why don't you take advantage of the fact that you and I are the most helpless and killer to take revenge? Feng Laoshang did hide some secrets and never told us, but that was his freedom, why should you not be aggressive? ”
There have been countless similar quarrels, just because they are drunk, there is always a rift between Yi Chenjing and Bai Qige. Even if he tried his best to convince himself that Ning Xidrunk had no dissent, looking at the handsome and gentle figure and Bai Qige's bright smile, he couldn't really feel at ease no matter what.
"Enough, I don't want to argue with you anymore because of him." Irritably shaking his hand, Yi Chenjing frowned and turned his head, and dressed roughly, "Pack up early, it's time to end the matter here and continue to rush to the imperial capital." ”
Bai Qige didn't want to argue, and when he saw him take a step back, he also gave up his differences, opened the small window and took a deep breath of fresh air.
At this time, it stands to reason that most people are still asleep, but Ogihuazhuang is a winery that deals in business, and those subordinates and winemakers start to work before dawn, and bursts of mellow fragrance begin to permeate the entire mountain villa from dawn, and the smell alone is intoxicating. Closed his eyes and greedily inhaled the aroma of wine in the air, and concentrated on one point to make Bai Qige's ears and eyes very clear, so he vaguely heard the chaotic whispers coming from outside the courtyard, a lot, very chaotic, as if something was happening.
The idle mood immediately became vigilant, Bai Qige tied her hair and strode out of the door, Yi Chenjing turned around and only saw her leaving, as fast as the wind.
Outside the courtyard is a small pond, the pond is not far south is the gate of Dihuazhuang, hurriedly walked to the gate of the courtyard and looked forward, Bai Qige saw a bunch of people standing near the main gate and talking in a low voice.
Isn't there someone special coming to the villa?
Dry thought can never get an answer, simply straighten the clothes, Bai Qige pressed the speed and walked towards the crowd without hurrying, looking as if he was just passing by, and only when he got close did he speak lightly, pretending to be surprised: "Why are you all gathered here, what happened?" ”
Most of the people in the village knew Bai Qige, and when they saw her asking, someone stepped forward and replied: "It's a suspension bridge, I don't know who cut the suspension bridge, the other side can't come over, and we can't get out......"
Bai Qige was stunned for a moment, and then nodded thoughtfully.
Hagi Flower Village is built in the middle of the mountainside, down the mountain must pass through a rather deep and dangerous narrow ravine, for the sake of convenience and safety, Di Tianhong in the early days of the establishment of the mountain villa ordered people to set up a suspension bridge, this suspension bridge is the only way to go down the mountain quickly, once the suspension bridge is broken, you must go down the mountain must pass through the steep, dense and insect snake mountain forest ravine, the degree of danger is self-evident.
Glancing at the crowd of discussions, Bai Qige left quietly, and behind him, a pair of smug eyes stared at the thin figure until he turned the courtyard and couldn't see it again.
After Bai Qige told Yi Chenjing about the destruction of the drawbridge, his angular face frowned: "Finally, the owner of Ye Zhuang can walk after his illness is gone, won't the suspension bridge be broken and the time on the road will be delayed?" And it's early and late, but it's ...... at this time."
The eyes in each other's eyes are the same, and the guesses in their hearts are exactly the same.
Before noon, Di Tianhong appeared in the side courtyard without surprise, and his anxious appearance made others anxious.
"I don't know who cut the rope carelessly or someone did it on purpose, in short, this bridge is so broken that it makes people feel that it is a shortcut to the bottom of the mountain, and now everyone is trapped in the village, and it will take at least three or four days to repair it." The annoyed Di Tianhong sighed again and again, and then looked guilty, "I was going to set up a banquet tonight to see off a few people, but now it seems that I have to stay with Brother Chen for a few more days, maybe it's the will of God, maybe give me a chance to do something good." ”
The more you rush to leave, the more trouble there is, what's the good thing? Fu Chu looked at Ye Huawan, who was sick and lively, and sighed: "We have the kindness of the owner of the village, but we can't delay it anymore if we have something to do, in my opinion, the bridge will be broken, isn't there still a mountain road to go?" Although it is more dangerous, it will not take a day to go down the mountain, it is better than sitting here and waiting. Brother Chen, what do you say? ”
Yi Chenjing nodded, and took over the conversation with Fu Chu's inquiry: "My thoughts are the same as Fu Chu's, instead of waiting, it is better to find another way down the mountain." That's good, tonight the owner's hospitality does not have to be postponed, we will bother for another night at night, and tomorrow morning at dawn we have to borrow a person from the owner of the village to lead us on the mountain road. ”
"This ...... It's too much of a rush. Seeing that Bai Qige and the others had firm faces, Di Tianhong knew that it was useless to persuade him, so he hesitated for a moment and slapped the table heavily, "Since you have made up your mind, Di Mou can't stay." I'll tell my servants to prepare food and drinks, and we'll have a good drink in the evening!" ”
Bai Qige thanked him, Di Tianhong called the steward of the village to explain the banquet, and specially told him to take out the best wine in Dihuazhuang, and then chatted with a few people for a long time, until he was tired in the afternoon before he said goodbye and left, Fu Chu also went back to their respective rooms with Ye Huawan.
After a simple tidying up, the restless Bai Qige stood in front of the window and looked, but unfortunately only the narrow courtyard came into view, and the mountains were towering and the clouds were rolling.
The shoulders and back are warm, and the powerful arms hold the light and fluttering body in their arms, which seems to be the strongest protection and reassuring. Relax her whole body and lean back, behind her is the person she trusts the most, it is all her world, it is the destination that Bai Qige has exhausted everything she has gained, she knows that no matter when this warm chest belongs to her, it will never change.
Even if the road ahead is bumpy and bumpy, with him in the scars, how tired and desperate it is only a cloud of smoke.
The farewell banquet is very rich, although it is not as precious as the imperial food materials in the palace, but it is the best diet that a small county like Longhuai can come up with; The self-brewed wine of Ogihuazhuang is also extremely fragrant, so fragrant that even Ye Huawan can't help but touch his tongue, and then it is so spicy that tears flow. The seemingly ordinary banquet always had a sense of incongruity for some reason, Di Tianhong toasted with enthusiasm for many times, but Bai Qige only smiled lightly and drank it all and then returned the salute with a glass of glasses, without saying half a word of superfluous words, and the meaning in his eyes was difficult to discern.
It was this gaze and strange calmness that made Di Tianhong's heart more and more empty.
"Come, Brother Chen, have another drink." Di Tianhong smiled and poured a glass of wine for Yi Chenjing, "This wine can't be drunk again if it leaves Dihuazhuang, and only the mountain spring grains here can make such a mellow, it's a pity not to get drunk." ”
Yi Chenjing's face did not change, and his expression, which was as light as pure water, did not change at all: "It is indeed good wine." At first, the mouth is sweet and refreshing, and when it reaches the throat, it feels hot and hot, and the flesh and bones are painful. Just like those who hide knives in their smiles and swords in their mouths, they stab them in the back when they smile respectfully, turning friends into enemies in an instant, and turning their smiles into knives, which are impossible to prevent. ”
"Brother Chen has something to say, does it mean something? Are you talking about that Boss Ning? Di Tianhong's hand shook and quickly returned to normal, but the smile on his face could no longer remain natural.
"He has a share." Yi Chenjing was noncommittal, raised a glass and drank, and there was nothing left.
The atmosphere froze.
