Bai Qige returned to the dust Xuan very early, thinking that Yi Chenjing should still be at the Yaohuang and did not come back, but as soon as he entered the door, he saw a familiar figure standing in the courtyard, and two other men holding brocade boxes standing opposite.

"Didn't the emperor say yesterday that the marriage matter would be discussed later, and the things sent by Ji Escort are considered dowries or meeting gifts," Bai Qige recognized that one of the two men was Ji Sanqian, the guard of Princess Ruan Yanluo, and the other was Sonam, a small person pretending to be an envoy, and then looking at Yi Chenjing's cold face and unkind expression, he couldn't help but joke.

"The princess said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was too thin, and Xu was busy with political affairs and neglected to recuperate, so she specially ordered to send two desert wild ginseng, a specialty of Rouhu, and a box of age-rejuvenating grass that replenishes both qi and blood, supplemented by this fairy deer whip to drink wine to strengthen the body and strengthen the kidneys." Ji Sanqian said plainly, without the slightest hint of evasion.

Bai Qige glanced at Yi Chenjing, and as expected, his face became more and more black and smelly.

Women give men aphrodisiac supplements with such fanfare, so Princess Yanluo herself is not ashamed, how can Yi Chenjing accept it calmly, and the meaning of sending these things......

"I'm in good health, I don't need tonics, please take things back." Being looked at by Bai Qige's strange eyes, Yi Chenjing was even more awkward and depressed, and his tone couldn't help but be cold and ruthless.

Ji Sanqian had no intention of persuading, put away the large and small boxes and piled them in Sonam's arms, took out a letter and presented it with both hands: "Five days later, the princess will borrow your national treasure to hold a banquet and invite back, the time and place are specified in detail on the letter, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is invited to come at that time, and I also hope that Princess Qi'an can go with him." ”

It is not uncommon for foreign envoys to visit and set up a banquet to invite back, but Yi Chenjing really doesn't want to go to this meal. As soon as he thought of Ruan Yanluo's charming and bewitching eyes, he had a chill down his spine and his hairs stood up, wishing that he would never see each other again in this life, how could he be happy to find guilt, and just wanted to open his mouth to find a reason to refuse, Bai Qige beside him had already responded first.

"Princess Yanluo has a banquet, we naturally want to go, as for these things, please ask the Ji guards to bring them back, His Royal Highness has always been healthy and can't use it, so let Princess Yanluo leave it to those who need it."

It's good to make up for kidney deficiency.

After completing the task of delivering the letter, Ji Sanqian left with Sonam, Yi Chenjing snorted coldly, and without looking at it, he threw the letter in his hand into a ball and threw it into the corner of the courtyard. Bai Qige stared at Yi Chenjing for a long time without saying a word, under the "gentle" gaze, Yi Chenjing insisted for a moment and lost his confidence, helplessly picked up the letter, hastily unfolded it and handed it to Bai Qige.

"It's not a good idea to go back to the banquet that you invite back and forth, just refuse it just now, and no one will say anything."

"Why don't you go, I'm afraid she won't be able to eat you," Bai Qige raised her eyebrows and asked, took the letter and skimmed it roughly, and then handed it back to Yi Chenjing, "Five days later, at two o'clock in the morning, at the Ruxiang Restaurant on Changle Street." I should go to the banquet just because she 'cares' about you, and I want to thank her in person, and by the way, I will test how much the arrogant and profligate princess is for you. ”

Looking at the raging battle flames under Bai Qige's eyes, Yi Chenjing didn't know whether to cry or laugh, surprised by the little woman side she accidentally showed at the same time, but at the same time, her heart was pounding, and her love overflowed without restraint, and she really wanted to take someone in her arms and tease her. Considering that the result of this was likely to be a kick and cold words and sarcasm, I resisted the urge to stand honestly and read the letter that I didn't want to read at all.

After a few glances, I tore the letter into pieces, full of affection, and the last sentence "I don't see you every day" is even more numb and disgusting.

"Go to the queen and ask something," shaking his head to drive away the disgust for Ruan Yanluo, Yi Chenjing returned to his usual peace and gentleness when facing Bai Qige.

"You definitely don't want to hear it, it's all some intrigues." Bai Qige smiled and sighed, "But I roughly understand the reason why the emperor rejects me so much, and I can be regarded as gained." ”

After all, the courtyard is not a good place to talk, especially in the palace, the partition wall has ears, so you have to be careful. Yi Chenjing made a boo gesture and pulled Bai Qige into the room, closed the doors and windows carefully, and then sat down quietly and listened attentively.

"The queen didn't say the reason why the emperor tried his best to suppress me, but she proposed that I rely on her power to compete with the emperor, and I guessed that she wanted to put me on the throne and then do behind-the-scenes manipulation, make a comeback, and re-interfere in politics. The queen knows very well what has happened recently, whether it is Miss Even, or the five envoys of Mo Nan, a person who is really pure-hearted and does not ask about the world will never know so much, according to me, it is the emperor who has been ill for a long time and cannot personally take care of the government to make the queen feel moved again, and those factional forces belonging to the queen are also very likely to resurrect again. ”

Yi Chenjing did not doubt Bai Qige's insight and judgment at all, her eyes were better than anyone else's, and she would definitely not be mistaken. Holding the teacup and pondering for a while, Yi Chenjing looked up at Bai Qige: "My father has been coerced by the queen for many years to concentrate power, maybe it is because of this relationship that he will be extremely careful in the future, both the political power and the military power must be partially delegated after careful consideration, a queen has made him sad for a long time, and he probably has unconsciously resisted a smart woman." ”

"Well, it's about the same as I guessed." Bai Qige nodded, "But I think the emperor may not be unconsciously resistant, but to eat a trench and grow wise, to prevent trouble before it happens, and he refuses to make me a concubine because he is afraid that you will encounter the same fate one day." In the final analysis, the emperor is still thinking about you, but the way is a little excessive. ”

Xu was troubled by Emperor Yao's prejudice, and Yi Chenjing was disapproving Bai Qige's words to excuse Emperor Yao: "When did he think about me, when he sent me to Zhaoguo to be a proton, when he saw that I was being chased and killed by Yi Chenxuan but pretended not to be seen, or when he knew that I was alone but forced me to appoint someone else as a concubine, what he had in his eyes was only Jiangshan Sheji, and he would never care about such a thing as family affection." ”

The estrangement between Emperor Yao and Yi Chenjing's father and son is deep-rooted, and it is not an overnight thing to untie it, Bai Qige knows that he can't get a result from arguing, so he simply doesn't bother with him, bypassing this matter and going straight to the topic: "Assuming that the inference is correct, then the key to solving the problem is how to make the emperor believe that I will not interfere in political affairs like the queen, but the emperor's stubbornness is on par with yours, and I really can't think of any way to dispel his concerns." ”

"Not necessarily, not necessarily." Bai Qige was contemplating his eyebrows, Yi Chenjing suddenly said in a low voice, "Qige, I am not my father, I don't want you to be imprisoned in the harem all day long, when I stand at the peak with the throne in my hand, I hope you can accompany me and watch the prosperous world we have created." ”

Bai Qige didn't say anything for a while, just quietly looked at the depth and endless tenderness in his eyes, whether it was moved or unexpected, his heart was quiet and peaceful.

There is no doubt that what Yi Chenjing wants to give her will be all he has.

Although Yi Chenjing said that Bai Qige was his wife at the reception banquet held for the five envoys of Monan, before the official canonization, Bai Qige still couldn't live in the East Palace, and Yi Chenjing didn't care, since Bai Qige couldn't live in the East Palace, then he would live in the Dust Xuan. So in recent days, such a scene has always been staged in the Dayao Palace, the prince who has been busy for a day hurriedly rushed to the dust Xuan, followed by the daughter of the puppet family who trotted all the way to catch up, and then behind the miserable little eunuchs, most of the circle of the palace ran down, and everyone knew the heart of the daughter of the puppet family to the prince.

"How many times do you want me to tell you, I won't marry you,"

"No matter what, the emperor promised that he would let me be the wife of the prince's brother,"

"Don't think about the impossible, haven't you already said it, except for Qige,"

"Then I'll be bigger, and she'll be small."

"Light Rain ......"

"The two of them make it big together,"

Every time she talks about this, the occasional shower will flatten her mouth and her eyes will turn red, and then she will cover her face and cry, Yi Chenjing can't beat or scold her, she is so angry that she stares dryly, but there is nothing she can do. Rao is like this, the rumors between the harem concubines are still sympathetic to the occasional shower, and Bai Qige, who was removed from the concubine position for no reason, has become the object of disgust and accusation by many people, if nothing else, for the occasional shower several times and was almost killed.

Walking by the lake, someone pushed her into the water; nausea and vomiting after eating, and it was found that the dish was poisonous; slept on the bed and turned out the witch from under the pillow; Even iron nails were secretly placed in the dress, and a scar was scratched on the delicate skin of an accident.

Who can a little girl who has just entered the palace have a deep hatred with, everyone thinks about it, and their suspicions are invariably placed on Bai Qige's head. If you want to say disgust and hatred, only Bai Qige and the occasional shower in the palace have had a holiday, five times and three times assassination, it's not that she has it, Bai Qige heard these rumors and didn't pay attention to them, the rumors are like this, the more you want to wash the white, the more convinced people are, it's better not to explain, and with Yi Chenjing here, she doesn't have to come forward to clarify in person.

"Qige is stupid and can't even find the dining room, how to poison it, the witch Gu thing is also placed in a hidden place, only brainless people will put it under the pillow, it is obviously a frame-up; The iron nail is even more nonsense, if Qige really wants to put it, it is definitely not an iron nail, it will probably be a poisoned knife. In the face of doubts from a cadre of people, Yi Chenjing made the above explanation lightly.

In short, some people are trying every means to make Bai Qige the target of public criticism, but Yi Chenjing is the opposite, he is doing his best to protect Bai Qige, standing firmly in front of her to shield her from open guns and arrows, gossip. It's not that Yi Chenjing doesn't know that doing so will put him in a dilemma, and more and more people will be offended, but he deeply understands one thing, and it is this matter that prompts him to stick to it and never give up.

The palace is cold and dark, and when all the spearheads point to Bai Qige's intention to be against her, he is the only one who can protect her.

"Because I'm her husband." In the face of countless puzzles, Yi Chenjing replied calmly.

The chaotic but not thrilling days did not last long, and the night before the banquet in the state of Yanhu, a cold sword light and a terrible scream broke the quiet night, and at the same time pushed Bai Qige to the forefront, indicating that another storm was coming.
