From the Emperor Yao to the Empress and then to the palace of the four concubines, Yi Chenjing walked for four days before returning to Chenxuan, during which he did not rest, and hurried to Huixi Ju after asking for peace at Concubine Jing.

"Tell me, what's the big discovery?" Bai Qige was reading a book in the front hall, and when he saw Yi Chenjing pushing the door in, he was quite anxious, and asked first without waiting for him to speak.

"How do you know I've made a discovery?" Yi Chenjing raised his long eyebrows, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his original anxious mood suddenly diluted, "Am I acting too obviously, or are you getting smarter and smarter and know how to read people's faces?" ”

"You have always disliked wearing crown clothes, every time you come back, you are impatient and immediately change back to your regular clothes, today you made an exception and ran here without changing your clothes, isn't there something important to say that you can still talk to me?"

Yi Chenjing thought for a while and said with a smile: "It seems that you have completely figured out my temperament, but you don't understand me as well as you after following me for so many years." ”

"A companion is like a tiger, if you don't know how to read people's faces, sooner or later it will be a disaster." Putting down the scroll in his hand, a trace of gloom flashed in Bai Qige's eyes. If she really understood him, he wouldn't have come to this point, whether Yi Chenjing hated her or not, whether she was sincere or used, she still couldn't guess or see clearly.

Yi Chenjing didn't notice Bai Qige's expression, and sat on the armchair at the other end of the half table: "When I went to Qifeng Palace, I chatted with the prince alone for a long time. The father planned to pass on the throne within three years, although the prince did not say it explicitly, the resistance was very obvious, as Jin Zhaoyi said, he was reluctant to become the emperor of Da Yao and was busy with government affairs all day long, but he couldn't find a reason to shirk it. ”

"I can't find a reason to create it myself, anyway, no one can tell if there are so many things in the palace that are true or false, and the prince is no exception."

"Any ideas?" Seeing that Bai Qige didn't seem to have much energy, Yi Chenjing knocked on the table.

Bai Qige held her cheeks and tilted her head slightly, and said after a moment of silence: "Last time the incident happened, the crown princess was very arrogant when she was in the apse of the East Palace, and the prince seemed to have a lot of criticism about what she did but did not dare to refute it. The crown princess is the only daughter of the right prime minister, if the right prime minister makes any mistakes, it will inevitably affect her, more seriously, and even affect the prince. But I'm not sure how serious it must be to affect the prince, you still know more about this kind of thing. ”

"As I thought, the crown princess offended many harem concubines with arrogance and arrogance, and the right prime minister relied on his daughter to be the future queen, and often embarrassed many ministers with different opinions, and even sometimes confronted his father and emperor in front of the ministers, and it was much easier to start from their father and daughter." Yi Chenjing stared at Bai Qige's thin side face, and suddenly reached out and took the scroll on the table, "What are you looking at?" ”

Bai Qige pointed to a stack of books that were a foot high next to him, and sighed: "I found the art of war book and the chronicles of the nations from your study, I want to see if there are any records of the common art of war and the idea of breaking the formation in the Holo River Khanate, but I didn't find anything for two days, and I had a headache to see the words of the hook and hook." ”

I went to school to learn modern simplified characters, and after crossing over, all I saw were traditional and variant characters and ancient characters that could not be said at all. However, Yu Che is just a maid who doesn't know much, and Bai Qige doesn't want to be known that she is studying the art of war, so she has no choice but to write down the words she doesn't understand on paper and ask others, and she only reads a dozen pages of books for two whole days, and she is very bored.

"I don't know what your head remembers." Yi Chenjing naturally couldn't imagine that Bai Qige was no longer the third lady of the Bai family who had read poetry and books, and thought that she couldn't remember those words because of amnesia. Throwing the scroll aside, Yi Chenjing poured a cup of tea and pushed it in front of Bai Qige: "If you don't understand it, don't read it, it's all useless books." Many of the tactics you mentioned are unheard of, and if they are used on the battlefield, they will definitely have a surprising effect, and there is no need to deliberately think about the experience of predecessors, but it is easy to limit them. ”

Strategy and tactics are most afraid of limited thinking, why don't Bai Qige know? In fact, the reason why I have been immersed in the art of war books in the past few days is not to study anything, the plan to go to the Khoro River Khanate has been decided, from marching to arranging to using troops, Yi Chenjing has already made detailed arrangements in her heart, and she doesn't need to say more at all, the reason why she reads these books is just to pass the time - in order to prevent accidents, Yi Chenjing instructed the war court not to allow her to leave without authorization, and it is inevitably boring to be trapped in the deserted dust Xuan all day long.

"Do you have time tonight?" Seeing Yi Chenjing nodding, Bai Qige smiled, "That's right, a few days ago, I asked Zhanting to buy two jars of good wine, and then let the dining room get a few side dishes in the evening, and I'll have dinner here." ”

Hearing the word wine, Yi Chenjing's scalp was numb: "The wine will be free, and you will drink it for a few days......

"Don't dare?" Without waiting for him to find an excuse to shirk, Bai Qige's eyebrows were raised high, and the provocation was extremely obvious, "Are you afraid of being compared to the amount of alcohol by a woman?" ”

“…… How can two altars be enough? As for the battle court, let him go and buy a few more altars. ”

Competitive and always unwilling to admit defeat, sometimes Yi Chenjing's personality and behavior are like a child, without thinking about the consequences. It's not that he hasn't seen Bai Qige's amount of alcohol, let alone him, even if he is with the battle court, he may not be able to beat her in wine. But for some reason, Yi Chenjing just didn't want to look at her confident appearance, and subconsciously hoped that she could be weaker than him, in any aspect.

If she is stronger than him, she always feels that she will find a chance to get rid of the shackles and leave him.

Taking advantage of Bai Qige's efforts to tell Yu Che to go to the dining room to prepare food, Yi Chenjing came to the outside of the house and grabbed the battle court who was playing with Xiao Yu, and said in a low voice: "Go to the Imperial Doctor's Mansion, the Imperial Doctor in charge will ask for some thousand cups of medicine that is not drunk, go and come back quickly!" ”

"A thousand cups are not drunk?" Zhan Ting couldn't help but laugh, "Has Your Highness ever heard of such a miracle medicine?" ”

"That's probably what it means, as long as you can suppress your drunkenness and drink a few more drinks, you are the main force at night, whether you can get it is closely related to you." Waving his hand impatiently, Yi Chenjing hurriedly pushed the battle court out of the courtyard.

An hour later, Zhan Ting returned to Huixi Ju with two jars of new wine and a bottle of pills, Yi Chenjing couldn't wait to swallow the pills secretly, and sat down in front of the fragrant cases with peace of mind.

After another hour, the bowls and chopsticks in the front hall of Huixi Ju were staggered, the wine in the cup was full and empty, empty and full, and the four people who did not distinguish between the master and the servant sat in front of the desk.

Another hour later, Yu Che lay on the armchair and fell asleep soundly regardless of his image, Zhan Ting held the wine jar with hazy eyes, and swayed and poured wine for Bai Qige while guarding Yi Chenjing's order, and the seven princes of Yaoguo who gave the order looked as usual, but his eyes were obviously drunk. The only person who didn't move like a mountain was Bai Qige, who spent his time carrying a wine glass and waiting for the battle court to toast, and from time to time poured a glass for Yi Chenjing, who was almost gibberish.

And when the bright moon hung high, except for Bai Qige, who was not the slightest drunk, the other three all lay down.

"What's the use of taking medicine, no matter how much you eat, it's not as good as someone who drinks wine as water." Bai Qige took out the medicine bottle that Yi Chenjing had hidden behind him, sneered and threw it into the corner.

Wine is a very strange thing, some people are not drunk with a thousand glasses, some people pour a glass, men, women and children have no rules, Bai Qige, who never knows what it means to be drunk, obviously belongs to the former. Even if Yi Chenjing has the courage to swallow mountains and rivers, he can only sigh in the face of the small wine glass, wanting to compete with Bai Qige, and to put it mildly, he is still far behind.

Helping the dazed Yu Che back to the room, he wanted to send the battle court away but said that he couldn't move anything. On weekdays, the war court was desperate and clung to the empty wine jar and refused to let go, obviously drunk and confused, and muttered to toast, Bai Qige was angry and laughing, so he had to take the brocade quilt and cover it, and let him sleep in the dark.

Yi Chenjing, who was also drunk, made a lot of noise, lying on the ground and not being honest, holding chopsticks and constantly knocking on the wine glass to make irregular noise. Bai Qige squatted down, snatched the chopsticks and knocked them heavily on Yi Chenjing's forehead: "It's useless, drinking with women and playing tricks, I really should draw your embarrassed appearance and hang it on the wall, see if you dare to be arrogant in the future." ”

He let out a long sigh of revenge, and a light smile suddenly appeared on his pale lips.

After being the third lady of the Bai family for so long, Bai Qige regained the feeling of generosity and cheerfulness in her previous life for the first time. She is not a person who likes to frown and worry about everything, although she is not lively, but no one has ever said that she is introverted and gloomy or how, if she didn't fall into the stormy family and country feud as soon as she opened her eyes, she should be with her father and mother at this moment to enjoy the family.

"I'm unlucky to meet you, I knew it was like this, I should have pushed you into the river to feed the fish when you saved me, and it saved so many people from having a good life." The smile gradually dissipated, thinking of the relatives who were thousands of miles away, Bai Qige's eyes suddenly dimmed.

From sacrificing her life for the country to humiliating her family and betraying the country, she has borne too many grievances and grievances of others, and she has innocently suffered too many curses and hatreds, with a firm determination to protect the Bai family, but she suddenly found that the man who had made her want to take revenge showed her was not the real side, and what was worse was that the more she contacted Yi Chenjing and the more she understood him, the weaker and weaker those hatreds became, and they were almost gone.

He is just a pawn who is insulted as a tool, in order to take revenge, to protect his loved ones, and to survive in troubled times, he can't help himself.

So similar to her.

A man with thin shoulders and a staggering man, Bai Qige was secretly glad that Yi Chenjing did not sleep like a dead pig like the battle court, at least she could get up and walk to her room with the help of others, and she was spared the pain of the noise of beating wine glasses outside the bedroom when she slept in the middle of the night.

The heavy wind covered the backs of the two people, slowly moving in the cold night wind, and it looked intimate from a distance, but no one knew how far apart the hearts of the two people were.

"It's coming, don't go to sleep." Finding that Yi Chenjing's steps were getting slower and slower, and the head hanging on his shoulders was getting heavier and heavier, Bai Qige gritted his teeth and twisted his arm fiercely, "Don't sleep, I still have something to ask you." ”
