Chapter 018: His Goal

"I'm sorry to scare you." With a light sigh and letting go of his hand, Yi Chenxuan gave up insistence.

Bai Qige tidied up his clothes, his expression unconsciously became cold, and the distance between him and Yi Chenxuan quietly widened. It's a blessing to be confessed, especially in the face of adversity, and you can't help but want to give up everything and cling to it.

However, Bai Qige was not carried away by the accidental confession, the more affectionate Yi Chenxuan was, the more prominent the little flaw in the words that was unintentionally leaked, which made her feel cold.

"Regarding Princess Hongxuan and I stealing the defense map, it seems that the five princes should not know so clearly."

Yi Chen, who was about to take a step forward and stand side by side, suddenly froze and was speechless.

He certainly had nothing to say.

Bai Qige raised his head and calmly looked at the brightly lit imperial garden in the distance. The gradually falling night greedily encroached on the light, and I don't know if there will be a day of complete darkness, a little spark in the cold night is too rare, always out of reach, she thought it would become the only source of warmth but gave her vigilance and coldness, in this vast and cold palace of the distant country, is there anyone who can bring her strength?

If Yi Chenxuan just sweetly promised her tenderly, maybe she would hesitate and choose to believe it, but he said the last thing he shouldn't have said.

"There are not many people who know that I am a substitute princess, and even fewer people know the third lady of the Bai family, and there are very few people who know the grievances and grievances between me and Princess Hongxuan, and know that I secretly sacrificed my defense to cause Zhaoguo to become a vassal country. Yi Chenjing still needs a lot of trouble to find out a little clue, the fifth prince, you live in the palace and don't interfere in foreign affairs, where did you get this little-known information? ”

"I think you're mistaken, Qige." Yi Chenxuan smiled bitterly, he wanted to hold Bai Qige but was ruthlessly thrown away. Letting go, Yi Chenxuan, who was the prince, stood quietly one step behind Bai Qige: "The seventh brother seems to be peaceful and humble, but in his bones he is a high-minded and arrogant and forbearant person, who has been in obscurity all year round, I have always doubted why he agreed to be married by you but he has to keep torturing him, so I sent someone to try his best to secretly investigate-Qige, I'm just worried about you." ”

Hold back, Yi Chenjing? If Yi Chenjing, who harshly criticizes and violently treats her at every turn, is called forbearance, then why is she?

If she didn't want to be patient, Bai Qige believed that it would not be difficult to kill Yi Chenjing with her ability, although her current body was quite delicate.

Taking a deep breath, Bai Qige's emotional complexion returned to its previous state: "How the Seventh Prince behaves has nothing to do with me, and the intrigue between your brothers does not involve me. In this deep palace, I only want to protect myself and have nothing else, and I hope that the five princes will be fulfilled. ”

Having said that, it would be too much to explain again, Yi Chenxuan is not a person who does not know the depths, and after a little relaxation, he quickly returned to normal, and returned to the gentle and elegant five princes of the distant country.

"It's dark and it's hard to walk, I'll go back with you."

When the Babaogong lantern glowing with soft light appeared with the two figures, Yi Chenjing, who was bored drinking, had a cold look in his eyes, but his tense nerves relaxed.

Emperor Yao was drinking to the fullest, and nodded to signal the two to return to their seats: "Are you back?" Come back and sit down, it just so happens that Jin Zhaoyi is going to sing a song. The Seven Princes have been running around all the year round and are busy with wars, and have made countless contributions to my Dayao country, and today I will take advantage of the Jin Zhaoyi song to toast a cup, hoping that the Seven Princes will create another military feats and become the leading prince general of my Dayao. ”

Jin Zhaoyi's voice was clear and soft, and the audience was intoxicated by the tactful singing, only leaning on the last seat by the door, the atmosphere was heavy, and the wine in the pot was down very quickly.

"It's a coincidence that we left together and came back together." Covered by singing and cheering, Yi Chenjing raised his glass and said in a low voice.

Bai Qige poured himself wine expressionlessly, and drank it all in one cup: "Whatever you think, you won't believe what I say anyway." ”

"I think why did you change your clothes for so long, I think this dress seems to have been worn by the Qi family of the five princes and concubines, I miss the two of you...... What exactly is the collusion in private. ”

Imprisoned in the dust hall like a prisoner all day long, where is the opportunity to collude with others? Knowing that this was deliberately making things difficult, Bai Qige was not annoyed, but showed a flat smile: "Yes, I have long colluded with the Fifth Prince, and I can't wait to meet every day to tell my heart." ”

Even if he admits the impossible, no one will believe it, understanding that Bai Qige is deliberately mocking his words, Yi Chenjing simply shut up and stopped talking.

Although he didn't want to, Yi Chenjing had to admit that Bai Qige's argument was many times stronger than him.

Seeing that the two of them were whispering very often, Su Yan thought that Yi Chenjing had changed after being reprimanded by Emperor Yao, which was a sign of the gradual easing of the relationship between the two, and couldn't help but smile and poured two glasses of wine and handed them to Bai Qige and Yi Chenjing: "Sister Qige has been coming to Dayao for a while, and His Royal Highness has been busy and has no time to talk, I think it is better to have a drink, the right is to pay for the wine in a thousand words, and the family will be harmonious and beautiful in the future?" ”

A sarcastic smile spread to the corners of his mouth, Yi Chenjing took the wine glass and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Okay, of course it's good." With such an ugly girl in her arms, she is not afraid of outsiders' concerns. ”

Su Yan Surao listened to the side, and couldn't help but be surprised, why does His Highness seem to be jealous?

"Your Highness has won the award, and you will be honored first." Bai Qige was not annoyed or angry, he raised his head and drank freely, and there was not a drop of wine left in a large glass.

Will Yi Chenjing eat the vinegar of her and the five princes? Big joke. I'm afraid that he can't wait for who she will fall in love with, and then beat the mandarin duck to make her miserable.

There was no fun at all in the banquet with their own thoughts, and before it was late at night, Yi Chenjing excused Concubine Jing to stay alone in the dust Xuan for an inconvenient time, and took Bai Qige and the three of them to leave the table early. The distance between the Imperial Garden and the Dust Xuan was not close, Yi Chenjing asked Su Yan Surao to take a step back first, leaving Bai Qige alone by his side, saying that he was a little drunk and wanted to walk back to sober up by the way.

Su Yan didn't think much about it, Su Rao was a little reluctant but helpless, so she could only follow her sister and leave first, Bai Qige sent the two sisters away with a smile, and then turned around, her smile disappeared.

"Say something straight ahead, while no one is staring at it now."

"How do you know?" Yi Chenjing raised his eyebrows, looking quite interested, "Does anyone follow you and feel it?" ”

"There were people watching me all the way from the dust pavilion to the imperial garden banquet, but when I went to change clothes, there were none." Bai Qige didn't answer directly, a gleam flashed in his eyes, "I wronged you before, but now that I think about it, it's pointless for you to send someone to spy on me." ”

was silent for a long time, and when he spoke again, Yi Chenjing actually had a trace of melancholy: "You have really changed, if you are given enough strength, maybe I am not your opponent at all." ”

"If you don't mess with me, I won't deal with you."

Is it possible to forget everything after the tragic death of the most important woman in your life, and let the person who could be the murderer go unpunished? No matter how smart she is Bai Qige, she can't escape in the palm of his hand, and when she loses her use value, whether it is a sacrifice or a companion of another world, she will always kill her with her own hands to avenge Hongxuan.

Jiangshan, revenge, he will not give up.

The slow footsteps suddenly stopped, Bai Qige turned sideways, and his face was blurred under the moonlight: "What do you want?" Throne? World? Famous through the ages? Bear it for three years in a low voice, to guard against all your brothers and the emperor, how many more years do you plan to wait before revealing your true colors? ”

"A word of advice to be less clever and know too much will not do you good, especially when you still have sins on you." Yi Chenjing's footsteps did not stop, his tone was as cold as ice, but his heart moved, and he became more and more surprised.

Such a perceptive woman, who is she? Is it really a cowardly and narrow-minded little warbler song?

Bai Qige looked around vigilantly, making sure that no outsider spoke lightly, and every word hit Yi Chenjing's heart.

"Designing Yun Zhongjin to deceive the defense map, effortlessly break through the border defense of Zhaoguo, the seven princes of Yaoguo I know are extraordinarily intelligent, brave and resourceful - don't look at me, I'm not praising you. But after returning to the Yaoguo Palace, you have been silent and low-key, and even pretended to be stupid to show the princes and emperors, including the reprimand that you deliberately let the emperor hear you ordering me to pour wine just now, making everyone think that you are arrogant and do not know how to restrain, all in order to cleverly hide your strength. Are you worried that you will be too popular and become the target of other princes? There is also the ubiquitous stalking and surveillance, including on me, which is the product of the intrigue of power in the royal family. ”

After piecing together the bits and pieces of information, Bai Qige came to the above conclusion, which is the result of her continuous thinking since entering the palace.

By the way, my understanding of Yi Chenjing has deepened.

Silence is like the smell of frost flowers on the side of the road between the two, and on the sparsely populated path, the seventh prince of Yaoguo, who is least favored by the courtiers, stands with his hands in his hands, and the woman in front of him who looks up at each other is thin and weak, but has a more calm and resolute look than a man.

"Yi Chenjing, I can help you."

He wants to accumulate strength in Taoguangyang in secret, wait for the time to strike back in one fell swoop, completely destroy those who once looked down on him and suppressed him, and become the Emperor Dayao who holds half of Zhongzhou. If this was his purpose, then Bai Qige was sure that her existence could greatly shorten this long process of patience, at least by half, depending on whether he believed it or not, and whether he had the courage and endurance to let her interfere.

The most important thing is that will he let go of his grievances and hatred for the sake of the society?

This question is indeed difficult to choose, Yi Chenjing stared at it for a long time, but there was no flaw on that slightly pale face, the ugly scar seemed to be laughing at his futility, and there was no indication that the words that were enough to shock anyone were true or false.

The night breeze gradually rose, blowing the strands of Bai Qige's hair scattered.

The scar on his face was a little itchy, not because it was still in the crusting stage, but because the dry and warm fingertips were gently swept through.

Bai Qige saw Yi Chenjing's expression for the first time, confused, confused, as if immersed in a dream, the thick pain was undisguised, and the two eyes deeper than the night seemed to suck people into the bottomless abyss.

And for the first time, his voice was so soft, with an almost drunken murmur.

"Little Yingge, tell me, does Hongxuan's death have anything to do with you?"
