Chapter 065: Unknown Ending
Bai Qige is easy to get tired when she is pregnant, and she is even more tired after a night of turmoil, listening to Yi Chenjing speak, she fell asleep unconsciously, and in a daze, she only felt that she was being put down and lying somewhere, and the warmth in front of her suddenly disappeared.
There won't be much discomfort from cold to warming, but it's not the same when the only warmth of midwinter is taken away, and the feeling is extremely uncomfortable.
Reluctantly, he opened his sleepy eyes, and the dim candlelight was blocked by a figure, and only the faint outline and his hand holding the corner of his light-colored clothes could be seen.
"How did you get here?" Letting go of his hand and rubbing his dry eyes, Bai Qige was slightly confused. The quaint and elegant room is obviously not Huixiju's bedroom, although she has only been in twice, the style that is incompatible with the appearance of the owner of the room is impressive-here, it is Yi Chenjing's bedroom.
"Huixiju hasn't painted the pepper wall yet, you and Yuche have been gone all night and no one has taken care of it, the stove in the house has been extinguished, and it is as cold as an ice cellar when you go back at this time, isn't it going to be cold?" Yi Chenjing pressed Bai Qige, who wanted to get up, pulled the quilt and covered the person tightly, "Sleep here before dawn." In the past two days, I have asked people to paint the pepper wall of Huixi Ju as soon as possible, anyway, Yu Che will not be able to come back for a while in the Taiyi Mansion, and you will live here before that. ”
Bai Qige glanced at him: "What about you?" Standing outside the door for the night? ”
"Am I looking for death?" Yi Chenjing smiled dumbly, "I haven't finished writing the expedition that my father wants, so I naturally spent it in the study tonight." From tomorrow, I will go to the palace of the queen and several second-rank concubines to greet the New Year, and I will have to stay overnight with other princes to drink, and you will probably not see me for a few days. ”
"Out of sight, out of mind, out of mind, rare for a few days of quiet."
Yi Chenjing shook his head lightly and didn't answer again, picked up a small pair of scissors and removed some of the candle and lamp oil, and the room was much brighter. Turned out the medicine bottle and walked to the bedside, the bloodstained and dried wound fell into his eyes, and his heart was slightly cold: "Don't sleep first, the wound must be dealt with quickly, I am afraid that it will be infected and inflammatory." ”
On weekdays, you either have a cold face and a bitter hatred, or you can't see your expression like a piece of wood, and you can't tell whether it's true or false when you are gentle a few times. Bai Qige stared at Yi Chenjing for a long time before sitting up, and the quilt was tightly wrapped around her body: "I can't see it, you also have a gentle side." ”
"Who is born complaining? If it weren't for the persecution of the environment, I wouldn't want to count the intrigues all day long, like the prince who admires flowers and birds every day and laughs at beautiful women. ”
Everyone will say that they have a last resort, or harm others or evil parties, and if they believe it as an excuse, there will be no bad people in this world. Bai Qige took the medicine and put it on the futon, gently untied the upper part of his shirt with his cold fingers and smeared it gently, lowering his eyebrows and eyes to see it very clearly: "You have suffered a lot in Zhaoguo, and I can understand it for taking revenge on Zhaoguo, but the people in this palace have not offended you, and after returning to Dayao, the emperor favors and appreciates you in every way, what do you have to usurp the throne for?" ”
"For your own selfish interests, for the sake of seeing the lives of the world, are you satisfied with this?" seemed to be very disgusted by Bai Qige's question, and Yi Chenjing's attitude instantly turned cold. Probably because he felt that his answer was a bit excessive, after a short silence, Yi Chenjing's voice returned to calm: "You grew up in a Jiangmen family, and what you see is bloody and heroic, you will never think of how terrible the darkness of the court's harem is, and it is precisely because of this that as a princess of a country, Hong Xuan will be more mature than you." The fact that I was sent to Zhaoguo as a proton should not have happened, in fact, the person who should be sent away was the Five Emperor Brothers, not me who was imprisoned in the cold palace with my mother. ”
"That's why you hate Yi Chenxuan so much?"
Yi Chenjing shook his head: "It's not that simple. At that time, my mother and I were implicated in my uncle's rebellion and were in an embarrassing situation, and it was reasonable for the five emperor brothers, who were loved by my father, to use me as a substitute to protect their own safety, and I didn't hate him when I left Yaoguo. It's just that I didn't expect that when he was only twelve years old, he was already so vicious, and he bought the ministers of Zhaoguo to bully me in every way, and actually ambushed the killer on the way to Zhaoguo to see me a few years later. ”
Assassinate...... Bai Qige took a deep breath.
Yi Chenxuan is five years older than Yi Chenjing, because of his elegant appearance and talent, he has been loved by the emperor since he was a child, it can be said that he wants to be windy and rainy, although he does not have the life of the Son of Heaven, but it is enough to stand under the prince only by virtue of the emperor's grace, why should such a young prince who stands in glory and grace ruthlessly mutilate his brothers and sisters? At that time, Concubine Jing fell out of favor, Yi Chenjing became a proton, such a down-and-out mother and son were miserable enough, what reason was there for Yi Chenxuan to fall cruelly into the well and have to put them to death?
After thinking about it, there were many doubts mixed in it, Bai Qige frowned and looked at Yi Chenjing: "I still can't say it." I heard Concubine Jing mention the assassination, but she didn't point out who was behind it. Judging from the current situation, it is very likely that Yi Chenxuan is very likely, but at that time, he should be in the palace of Yaoguo and does not have any military power, how did he send someone to the distant Zhao Kingdom to attack you? It's been six or seven years, are you sure that what you know is the truth about the assassination? ”
"You're still going to speak for him." Yi Chenjing looked displeased, "There is nothing to doubt about this matter, soon after I returned to Yaoguo, I found the leader in charge of the assassination at that time, that person was a retainer of the Fifth Emperor Brother's mother, Concubine De's family, and he also confessed to all the crimes. The Fifth Emperor Brother didn't expect me to come back alive from Zhaoguo, and he didn't care about hiding the murderer, which gave me a chance to learn everything. ”
"Also the reason why Yi Chenxuan is murderous towards you and Concubine Jing?" Bai Qige's eyes flashed.
Yi Chenjing lost his mind for a moment, and then nodded heavily with a long sigh: "In the ten years since I left Yaoguo, the other princes' powerful cronies have been cut and seized for various reasons. ”
Bai Qige was very clear in his heart, what Yi Chenjing meant was that the purpose of Yi Chenxuan's actions was to eliminate dissident forces, and when the time was ripe, he would overthrow the prince and establish himself in the East Palace, or simply establish himself as the emperor.
"I'm not excusing him, but I really don't understand why Yi Chenxuan chose you and Concubine Jing to attack first, and after more than ten years, they are still chasing after him like this?"
The long figure was reflected on the ground, the end of which was folded over the head of the bed, and it was meeting Bai Qige's shadow. Yi Chenjing looked at Bai Qige, there was an incomprehensible color in his eyes, and the corners of his lips were raised, and he didn't know whether he was smiling or mocking something: "Father likes his mother, just because of this." ”
"What's the reason for that?" Bai Qige blurted out and sneered, "The emperor's harem concubines are not hundreds or dozens, which one doesn't say that he likes affection when he is pampered?" Even if it is a little more favored by Concubine Jing, it is only a momentary love, how can it be involved in the open and secret struggle of all forces? There is no permanent companion on the king's side, how can the emperor love one person in his life? ”
Accustomed to listening to the ruthless things of the ruthless king in the story, Bai Qige said this completely out of subconscious, and when he remembered the identity of the man in front of him, he suddenly found that Yi Chenjing's long eyes were a little less lustrous and a little more gloomy. She forgot that he was one of the infatuated kings who insisted on a lifetime and a couple, although now he has not been Longxiang for nine days, and he is **.
"Sleep before dawn, I'll take care of the rest." After standing for a moment, Yi Chenjing turned around and blew out the candlelight, and his long figure disappeared into the darkness. Bai Qige could only hear the sound of footsteps and the sound of the door opening, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly got up and flipped the medicine bottle to the ground.
"The assassination of you and Concubine Jing may have something to do with me."
It was pitch black and they couldn't see each other's figures, but Bai Qige felt a sudden stagnant aura, as if there was a moment of confusion about the killing intent.
The silence spread, the eyes gradually adjusted to the darkness and slowly became able to see the surroundings clearly, and the thin moonlight that shone in through the window fell to the ground, blending with the light-colored kafranza. For a long time, no one said a word, letting the cold wind outside the window scream, and I don't know whose stunned and depressed people were mourning.
When the temperature that had just warmed up on his body was lost again, Bai Qige, who finally started talking, continued the conversation: "Yi Chenxuan said that I helped him bring out you and Concubine Jing. He was absolutely sure of me when he was in the palace, there was no need to lie, I thought...... Maybe you're right, I've been on the wrong path since a long time ago. ”
Bai Qige felt that the relationship between the two was like a circle that could never open an exit, and when Yi Chenjing doubted her and hated her, she tried her best to gain his trust; After countless twists and turns, when he was finally willing to accept her transformation regardless of his previous suspicions, the unexpected truth ruined the new relationship; Then he broke into the remote hall at night and was honest with each other again, and the new clues between the two of them were enough to show all the new clues that he had worked hard to destroy in front of him, and even Bai Qige himself had to face the cruel truth with hatred for the owner of this body.
"Did Yi Chenxuan say it himself?" A hoarse voice asked in a low voice.
Bai Qige let out a long sigh: "Yes." ”
"No wonder I always feel that I have overlooked something, that day you kept begging Hongxuan to go to the lake to play and we were ambushed, I just thought it was an unexplained coincidence, I didn't expect that you had a different heart many years ago." Yi Chenjing hid the emotions contained in his tone, so Bai Qige couldn't tell whether he was angry or blaming, or if he wanted to kill her.
In addition to Princess Hongxuan's life, how much does she owe Yi Chenjing? Can you repay it clearly in this life?
"If it's really me-" Bai Qige wanted to ask him, if she was the one who killed Princess Hongxuan, and she was the one who almost killed Concubine Jing and him at a young age, would he still be as gentle as he was just now? For the sake of Princess Hongxuan, will he be as cruel and ruthless as he first saw her, and kick her into the abyss?
Calmly interrupting the question, Yi Chenjing stepped out of the door, leaving only Bai Qige with a monotonous back and an ambiguous answer.
"There aren't so many ifs. You promised me that I would find out the truth, and when the truth is revealed, the answer you want will naturally appear. ”
