Chapter 089: The hosta returns

"Don't be cranky, now you need to be quiet." Yi Chenjing helped Bai Qige sit up and lean on the head of the bed, avoiding talking about children.

Bai Qige turned his head to hide his gloomy expression. Su Jinyan said that once she gave birth to this child, she would be involved in Yi Chenjing's king out of the palace and the separation of mother and son, in order to protect his great cause and protect his filial piety, she took medicine without hesitation to cause a miscarriage, so she killed the flesh and blood who didn't have time to look at the world of flowers with her own hands, but he ......

Sure enough, he didn't want the child.

However, Yi Chenjing's mind was by no means what Bai Qige guessed, he just didn't want this matter to add more trouble and pain to her, so he never mentioned it, not to mention that he cared about more important things - as expected, she took the medicine to kill the child by herself, and it was reluctantly, Yi Chenjing understood that talking about the child at this time might make her collapse, no matter how strong a person is, there is always a bottom line, and Bai Qige is obviously close to that bottom line.

"Hungry? Wait a minute, let Yu Che go and cook some porridge for you, the doctor said that you can't eat greasy, dry and hard things just after waking up, so bear with it for the past two days. ”

"Yu Che ......" Bai Qige vaguely remembered hearing Yu Che's voice in a daze, shouldn't she go back to Zhaoguo? A trace of warmth suddenly surged into the bottom of his cold heart, and the corners of his almost colorless lips hooked up a shallow smile: "That girl...... Or stayed. ”

"If it weren't for Yu Che braving the wind and cold to report to me, you would have been killed by Concubine Jin in Yingyue Lake. That girl hadn't eaten or drunk for a few days, and she didn't even have the strength to speak loudly, and when she saw that you were cheated away, she crawled to my study in a single coat and gritted her teeth, and her hands and feet were full of frostbite. Yi Chenjing took a few sips of herbal tea and fed Bai Qige, but he only drank less than half of a full cup of tea.

No wonder Yi Chenjing suddenly appeared by the lake that day to save her, but unfortunately, no one could save the child who was no longer there. With a dry smile, Bai Qige suppressed the bitterness in his heart, and his tone was much calmer: "The matter has been clarified? Does the emperor know that Yi Chenxuan and Prime Minister Zuo were maliciously framed? ”

"I haven't found out yet." Yi Chenjing shook his head, his eyes were a little tired, "I let you come back because of Jin Zhaoyi." Jin Zhaoyi went to the crown prince, and the two of them confessed to their father in front of the emperor, and the father was naturally furious, but your innocence was finally confirmed. The queen imposed the charge on the two palace maids who searched the dust Xuan and the East Palace, and they had been killed with a cane the day before yesterday, on the grounds that they had created false testimony for the reuse of Concubine Jin and framed you and the prince. At present, this matter can be regarded as temporarily settled, and the matter of Jin Zhaoyi and the crown prince is only known to the father and the queen, after all, it is the crown prince, and the father cannot abolish the position of the crown prince for something that no one else knows, as for what happens in the future, it depends on the creation of the two of them. ”

Bai Qige was silent for a moment, slightly distracted.

Jin Zhaoyi loves the prince sincerely, the prince seems to like to attract bees and butterflies to be uninhibited, and what he loves in his bones is Jin Zhaoyi after all, otherwise he would not have admitted the private relationship between the two under the pressure of being blamed by Prime Minister Zuo. They will walk very hard in the future, but at least they have each other, and those who are happy with each other are the happiest, even if they lose everything, having each other is the whole world, and the world that only exists for one person.

Quietly looking at Yi Chenjing's handsome face, Bai Qige hopes that he can be like Jin Zhaoyi, and he will always win the heart of one person, and Bai Shou will not be separated.

"You've lost a lot of weight." Yi Chenjing shook Bai Qige's hand, and his palm was so painful that it was craggy and skinny.

"Speaking of me, your face is not much better." Bai Qige smiled lightly and stretched out his hand to Yi Chenjing's cheekbones, "No matter how thin you are, only bones remain, Concubine Jing and Sister Su Yan are desperate to find me." ”

In the scattered and fragmented memory, he has been guarding the bedside, sometimes calling her name in a low voice, sometimes holding her hand silently, every time he opens his eyes dimly, he must be him, whether she is awake or not, Yi Chenjing is always close at hand.

Suddenly I remembered what he said that day.

She is my wife, who else can protect me if I don't protect her?

If there had been a day when he had truly become his wife in this life, the suffering would have been worth it, even if his tenderness had always been so clumsy and silent.

The fingers that were rubbing the side of his face were suddenly caught by Yi Chenjing, the heat of his palm was like a fire, Bai Qige raised his eyes in a daze, and met his bright eyes. Yi Chenjing took a deep breath, his expression extremely serious: "Qige, I think-"

"Miss is awake?" Hearing the sound of talking in the room, Yu Che didn't want to rush into the house directly with the teapot, and his loud voice interrupted Yi Chenjing's words before he mustered up the courage to speak after thinking for a long time.

Yi Chenjing looked helpless, glared at Yu Che obliquely, but was completely ignored by the ecstatic little maid, and her delicate figure threw herself to the side of the bed and cried and laughed. Seeing that the master and servant seemed to have countless things to say, Yi Chenjing had to shake his head and sigh, and walked to the inner hall alone to find a moment of silence.

There was a vermilion porcelain vase with a narrow mouth and a wide belly on the table in the inner hall, and as soon as he saw it, Yi Chenjing's face immediately became gloomy.

The medicine in the bottle was eaten by Bai Qige, and Doctor Fang could only judge by the residual smell that the medicine contained a few herbs that caused pregnant women to slip the fetus, which was exactly the same as the medicine that Yi Chenxuan forced Mrs. Qi to kill the child. There is no doubt that this medicine comes from the Yaoqi Palace, but why did Yi Chenxuan want to prevent Bai Qige from giving birth to a child? Yi Chenjing couldn't understand the reason, if he had to accept the title of king and stay away from the imperial capital, Yi Chenxuan should be very happy, shouldn't he? The more the water became more and more muddy, and he gradually lost his sight.

Time passed day by day, the former courtiers were very busy with the northern expedition, the harem was also a lot quieter because of the concubine's grounding, Bai Qige's residence was forcibly moved to the courtyard closest to his bedroom by Yi Chenjing, and Yi Chenjing, who was eating and drinking well, and forced her to eat supplements with a calm face at every turn, her body recovered far faster than expected, and she could move around as usual after half a month.

There were still five days left before the Northern Expedition, and after everything was ready, Yi Chenjing was idle, sometimes accompanying Emperor Yao in the imperial study or dormitory, sometimes comforting and comforting the worried Concubine Jing, sometimes discussing some things with the war court, and spending more time in Bai Qige's room. Because he was worried that someone would be unfavorable to Concubine Jing when he was not in Yaoguo, Yi Chenjing decided to let Concubine Jing go to the Meixian Nunnery outside the palace to recuperate.

"What are you packing up for?" As soon as he entered the door, he found that Bai Qige was sorting out his baggage, and Yi Chenjing was surprised.

"Naturally, I walked with Concubine Jing." Bai Qige didn't raise her head, neatly folded her clothes and put them into her baggage, "You said that you would punish Su Rao for letting her stay alone in the palace, then of course Sister Su Yan and I will follow Concubine Jing, what's the problem?" ”

Yi Chenjing walked to the side of the bed and pressed Bai Qige's hands, his eyes were meaningful: "I promised you to let you go back to Zhaoguo, forgot?" ”

How can such an important promise be forgotten, but now is not the time. Bai Qige understood that Yi Chenjing was very worried about Concubine Jing's safety, otherwise she would not have left the war court, but the war court had a good kung fu but lacked the mind to deal with conspiracy and scheming, and the best way was for her to protect Concubine Jing with the war court, so that the matter of returning to Zhao would have to be postponed.

"I don't want to go back just yet. The spring cold is steep, Yuche's hands and feet have not healed from frostbite, and it will be itchy and unbearable if it is slightly cold, so let's talk about it when the weather is warmer. ”

"Really not going back?" Yi Chenjing has long eyebrows and high eyebrows.

"What, think I'm wasting food?" Bai Qige was not to be outdone, and looked up with a serious face.

After a moment of confrontation, Yi Chenjing suddenly laughed, took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Bai Qige: "Mother doesn't need you to guard, my father has allowed Jin Zhaoyi to go with me, plus the ghost and ghost Yuche and the iron-beaten elm head in the war court, it is not so easy to attack my mother." Since you are not going back to Zhaoguo, I have another task for you, and the letter is clearly written. ”

Jin Zhaoyi is careful, Su Yan is steady, and Yu Che is smart, and there is really no need for her to intervene more with the three of them. Bai Qige couldn't help but regret his refusal to return to Zhaoguo, but he couldn't change his words after saying it, so he had to take the letter depressedly and hurriedly open it.

"This time the northern expedition to the Holohe Khanate is a difficult and dangerous road, thinking that the newlywed Yan'er of the Seven Princes will inevitably have distractions, and the princess Bai Qige is specially allowed to accompany the army, and all the food and clothing are distributed with the deputy general, and only the order of the general is received, and others are not allowed to interfere...... Emperor?! Looking at the vermilion seal at the end of the letter, Bai Qige was dumbfounded, "Let me go with the army?!" ”

Yi Chenjing's smile deepened, and his words seemed to loosen his cold and hard attitude towards Emperor Yao: "Father and Emperor are cunning, I have long seen the blood of the Bai family wizard in your bones. I used to blindly help you talk because I didn't want to see you framed and convicted, but now I take the initiative to let you go on the expedition with me, firstly, to avoid another secret murder to the greatest extent, and secondly, I also hope that this northern expedition can let you know more about the battlefield, so as to tap the potential of using troops. ”

After thinking about it, I didn't expect this method, Bai Qige sighed a little after being surprised, it is worthy of being father and son, Yi Chenjing and Emperor Yao's meticulous thoughts are really similar.

Now that Emperor Yao has arranged it, what else is there to say? Throwing away the burden and letting out a long breath, Bai Qige glanced at Yi Chenjing half-jokingly: "It's okay this time, I have multiple identities in front of you." In the future, remember to call me Adjutant General Bai, and dare to violate the military law. ”

"Identity......" The gradually blood-colored face was active in front of him, Yi Chenjing thought for a while, and took advantage of Bai Qige's bowing head to insert something between the curled hair.

Bai Qige was stunned for a moment, and while reaching out to touch the top of his head, he looked sideways at the flat bronze mirror on the makeup.

The slender hairpin body is polished and shiny, the lotus holder is carved delicately and meticulously, and a jade bead at the top is round and smooth, the color is uniform, and the price is not expensive at a glance. Bai Qige didn't know when Yi Chenjing secretly took the hosta she had hidden in the box, when she replaced the broken jade bead, and what it was for now to put it in her hair.

It was given to her by Concubine Jing as a hosta for the identity of the concubine.

Looking at Yi Chenjing with a solemn expression in a daze, Bai Qige was a little confused, it was he who fell the hosta in a fit of anger and said that he would not marry any woman other than Hongxuan, what is this move?

Bai Qige's reaction was expected by Yi Chenjing, but he didn't care, and gently held Bai Qige's hands, with boundless tenderness in his eyes that was enough to make people indulge in an instant.

"Qige, would you like to be my wife?"
