The pure, almost transparent color, which did not contain any impurities, had impressed Bai Qige, although it was only a glimpse of the school's military field at the time, which was enough to make sure that he would not be mistaken.

"Offended, girl first, please." The man's voice behind the mask was elegant and pure, similar to those blue eyes, but with just this Bai Qige, he found out that he was not the one who saved her in the school military field that day.

Upon closer inspection, many discrepancies popped up immediately - this man was obviously taller and stronger, unlike the mysterious man, who was slender and slender, and the few strands of hair hanging down outside the mask were also of a very different color, a very natural and dazzling light gold, obviously from a different race.

"Girl?" Seeing that Bai Qige was a little distracted, the man kindly reminded again, "Doesn't the girl want to see this dagger?" ”

Bai Qige came back to his senses, retracted his stunned gaze embarrassedly, and the hand stretched out to the dagger also retracted: "I'm just looking at it, and I don't plan to buy it, so don't mind the child." ”

Since he was sure that the person in front of him was not a mysterious person, Bai Qige didn't plan to make more contact, just a dagger that caught his eye a little, and there was no need to fight with others. Picking up a bunch of groceries and about to turn around, the man suddenly walked around to stop her, and the curvature of the corners of his thin lips was gentle and elegant: "Ordinary women love rouge embroidery thread, but it is the first time that those who like swords and soldiers have seen it, if the girl does not dislike it, can she go to the teahouse to talk about it?" Even if it's a gift of reciprocation. ”

"Childe is polite, I don't know what weapons are, I just stretched out my hand when I thought it looked good." Yi Chenjing went shopping and would be back soon, Bai Qige didn't want him to see himself entangled with people, especially a man with eyes of the same color as Su Jinyan. Walking around without a trace, Bai Qige smiled and refused: "I still have to wait for someone here, son, take care of yourself." ”

"So...... Then this can be regarded as a meeting gift for the girl. The man still didn't give up, and after the invitation was rejected, he untied a short sword from his waist and put it on a large pile of things that Bai Qige was holding, "In the downstream, I traveled all over Zhongzhou to do business, and I was most willing to make friends from all walks of life. ”

This man is really interesting, but he has the same thing as him, as for the importance of this? Bai Qige doesn't like men who talk a lot of nonsense and clingy, but the person in front of him is an exception, he has a very attractive temperament, humble and polite, and gentle as water.

Bai Qige glanced at the short sword given by the man, the total length was less than a foot, small and exquisite, the scabbard should be made of pure copper, the dragon and a lotus were carefully carved on it, the hilt of the sword was also carefully carved, and the top was inlaid with a gorgeous red jade like blood. Such a delicate short sword must be worth a lot of money, compared to the dagger he fancied was simply a cloud of mud, Bai Qige couldn't understand how a businessman could do such a loss-making business.

"If you don't have merit, let alone something so valuable? I received Childe's wishes, please take back this short sword. Bai Qige shook his head, turned sideways slightly, and looked at the direction of Yi Chenjing's departure.

"With the girl's demeanor, it is far more than a daughter, and today Sansheng is fortunate to see each other, and the mere courtesy is not a tribute. I also hope that he will meet again in the future, and talk about wine. ”

An ethereal and clear chuckle came into his ears, and his clean voice carried an indescribable gentleness and elegance, and he turned his head in surprise when he heard the sound, and the man who claimed to be a merchant behind the mask had gone more than anywhere, but the short sword was still placed on a pile of miscellaneous goods.

Bai Qige took a deep breath and looked around, but the person's trace was no longer to be found—how difficult was it to find a stranger in the bustling crowd? It's hard to see five steps apart.

In a trance, Yi Chenjing had already rushed through the crowd and rushed back, still with that expressionless face, and raised his hand to tie a fur cloak to Bai Qige's body.

"Is it warmer?"

"What kind of cloak is this? Wear it like an animal, and it won't be pierced by an arrow from a hunter? Bai Qige looked down at the furry cloak and sighed.

Yi Chenjing squinted: "The people who work outside in winter have to wear this kind of cloak, it looks ugly, but the warmth is much better than the one woven in the palace - where did the short sword come from?" Sweeping his eyes over the groceries, Yi Chenjing keenly noticed that there was one more thing on it, and looked at Bai Qige in wonder: "You didn't have any silver on you, could it be that you robbed it?" ”

"I can't move with so many things, and if I want to rob it, someone else will rob me, so you can't think about my good?" Bai Qige was angry and laughed, and stuffed everything into Yi Chenjing's arms, "It was sent by a merchant, the reason is that I haven't seen a woman who likes daggers and feels fresh and curious." Don't ask me anything else, I don't know what to do, and it's useless for you to ask. ”

"It must be a very ugly-looking man."

"Huh?" Bai Qige was puzzled, and looked at Yi Chenjing's handsome face suspiciously. What does it have to do with the other party's appearance when she gave her something for no reason? After walking a few steps side by side with questions, Bai Qige suddenly woke up, and slapped Yi Chenjing's broad and sturdy back: "Is a man who is attentive to me necessarily ugly?!" ”

Yi Chenjing shrugged his shoulders and didn't answer, laughing at it, but he had to care about the identity of that person in his heart.

Although he didn't pay attention to the quality of weapons, and he had never dabbled in the famous swords in the history of Zhongzhou, he just looked at the jade inlaid on this short sword, and knew that this thing was by no means an ordinary product. Blood jade, that is the dead in the mouth of the soaked for many years and then turned into blood-colored jade, it sounds yin but is a good product to ward off evil spirits, but also a rich and noble people compete for a strange thing, legend in the incorruptible corpse The longer the immersion in the corpse, the more gorgeous the color, the higher the price, and the color in front of the eyes is transparent, red wins blood, obviously a superb.

If it were really an ordinary trader, would he give such a rare treasure generously? Or is someone playing Bai Qige's idea?

Silently clenching his delicate palm, Yi Chenjing leaned closer to Bai Qige's side again.

Compared to the rare blood jade short sword, Bai Qige's value was countless times higher. As the third lady of the Bai family, she is involved in the strength of the three armies of Zhaoguo, and her own intelligence cannot be underestimated, if she uses it properly, she will definitely become a good general who is not inferior to him, such a rare talent is to give him ten cities and refuse to exchange, how can she be coveted by others?

Bai Qige can only belong to him.

With the fur cloak warmed up a lot, Bai Qige followed Yi Chenjing's side and walked the entire street market, full of sundries to make her look quite like a coquettish innocent girl, no one knew that these things were bought by the man next to her on his own initiative.

first glanced at Bai Qige, found an excuse that was not salty or light, then took out the silver with a blank face, and then took something and put it in her arms, all the process is like this. Bai Qige couldn't laugh or cry, whether he liked these little things or thought she would like them before he bought them, anyway, when he returned to the palace, one of her arms was already so sore because of the weight - the other hand held by Yi Chenjing was not much better, that guy was not light or heavy, and his hand was about to be broken by him.

When I returned to the Dust Collector's Pavilion, it was already dark, and unexpectedly the Dust Pavilion was still brightly lit, and a plump figure was pacing anxiously in front of the warm hall that first caught my eye.

"Su Yan? Why don't you sleep so late? Is there anything wrong with my mother? Yi Chenjing frowned, and couldn't help but worry about Concubine Jing, who had always gone to bed early.

Su Yan let out a long breath and shook his head, and finally got the result with an anxious face: "Concubine Jing is fine, but I have to wait for you to come back and refuse to go to bed until now." Looking back at the warm hall with the door closed, Su Yan stood on tiptoe and approached and whispered: "In the afternoon, the emperor sent someone to send a pair of South China Sea angelfish, and Concubine Jing said that this fish is only delicious when it is fresh, so I have been waiting for His Highness." ”

Yi Chenjing's expression was a little unnatural.

The South China Sea Angela has always been two fish swimming together is extremely difficult to catch, preservation is even more difficult, often several years to take advantage of the cold winter to pay tribute to a pair of children into the palace, the mother recalls the past often said that the favorite food when favored in the past is this Angelfish, but unfortunately there is no chance to taste it in the future. What is such a move by my father? After telling them that the mother and son are full of grace and the old love is not over, do you still miss the old favorite concubine in your heart? I'm afraid it's just to make him grateful to Dade for fighting to the death, right?!

The short silence made Bai Qige realize that something was wrong, and after gently bumping into Yi Chenjing, he smiled at Su Yan: "It's cold, why is Sister Su Yan waiting outside?" Since His Royal Highness is back, hurry up to see Concubine Jing, drink the soup and let Concubine Jing rest early. ”

"yes, I should go to see my mother first." Yi Chenjing restrained his low mood and smiled, his face was still much worse than before.

It will take a long time to go back to the room to change clothes, the two of them simply walked into the warm hall with a bunch of things, Concubine Jing was dozing off on the table, and Su Rao, who was waiting, saw the two of them come in and lowered her head and whispered a few words in Concubine Jing's ear.

"It's back, you two children, don't say a word to me when you go out, look, the soup is cold."

"Qige has never been out of Yaoguo, and today is the first day of the new year, there is a market, so I took her around, and I forgot to tell my mother when I was busy." Yi Chenjing sat beside Concubine Jing, all kinds of things were piled up on the table in her arms, and she picked out two exquisite silver hairpins from them and handed them to Su Rao, "I saw that it looked good, so I bought one for you and Su Yan, and there are some pastries and preserved fruits over there, remember to bring them back later." ”

Bai Qige didn't like too much makeup, and the hairpin in her hair was the one given by Concubine Jing and the one she polished as a self-defense weapon, Yi Chenjing wanted to buy it for her to wear, but looking at the pair of eyes that said, "Even if you buy it, I won't wear it", she gave up and only bought two for Sister Su Yan and Su Rao.

Su Rao smiled coquettishly, inserted the hairpin in her hair beautifully, and her expression was extremely happy: "Your Highness is so stingy, this is the first time to give me and my sister something." ”

The words are a joke, but it evokes a little bitterness in Su Yan's ears, as Su Rao said, the two sisters have known Yi Chenjing for so many years, and they have been married into the dust Xuan as a concubine for more than a year, if it weren't for Bai Qige's light today, I'm afraid that I won't get any gifts from him in this life.

Su Yan's loneliness was overshadowed by Bai Qige's eyes, and with the moment he put the thing on the table, he stepped on Yi Chenjing's feet.
