Thirty years ago, the remote country was poor and weak, it can be said that it is one of the last countries in Zhongzhou, when Kyushu was in turmoil, the beacon smoke was everywhere, and the Yi royal family, which was also glorious for a while, did not appear wise and strong kings, and was defeated again and again in the hustle and bustle of the wolf smoke, and finally ceded the city repeatedly, and became a subject of Sangyi.

The current Emperor Dayao rose in this predicament, using the good ministers and wise men to vigorously change, secretly raising troops and hoarding funds for ten years, Taoguang raising obscurity and accumulating for ten years, and then breaking the former enemy countries one by one in the next ten years, not only getting rid of the humiliating status of the subject country, but also through internal disturbances to make the first power Sangyi defeated without a fight and quickly collapsed. The distant country that annexed the vast land of Xiasanyi rose again overnight, and looked at Liuhe with the posture of a hegemon, shocking all directions.

After learning about the history of the coexistence of glory and decay in the Yao Kingdom, Bai Qige finally understood why the Yao Emperor was so eager to expand his territory and conquer other countries, and that the Yao Emperor wanted to complete the great achievements of unifying the rivers and mountains in his lifetime, and become the first emperor of the ages who had no one before or since.

"The expedition to the Khoro River Khanate was originally a plan for the year after tomorrow, but recently my father's health has been declining, and I am always worried that my time is running out, so I am in a hurry to send troops north." Yi Chenjing bent his fingers and tapped the corners of his forehead, and there was no lack of tiredness in his shrewd eyes, "I will lead the troops to set off in three months at the latest, and you can decide for yourself whether to stay in the palace or return to Zhaoguo temporarily, but with your identity, I am afraid that you will not stay in the palace alone for a long time, and those harem battles are more terrible than the battlefield." ”

Bai Qige didn't expect Yi Chenjing to offer to let her return to Zhaoguo, and she couldn't help but worry while being overjoyed: "If you are not in the northern expedition, who will govern Zhaoguo?" ”

"I knew you were worried about that. The father has the heart to give way, and the affairs of the court will naturally be taken over by the prince, and the princess will participate in it, and there will be no one else except the right prime minister who has jurisdiction. ”

The right prime minister is the main battle faction, after the Zhao Kingdom was broken, he once proposed to Emperor Yao to cut the grass and eradicate the roots and directly destroy the country, if it weren't for Yi Chenjing blocking it to explain the pros and cons, there would be no Bai Qige to marry as a concubine now. Frowning and taking a deep breath, Bai Qige understood that the current situation was not optimistic, if it was really the right prime minister to take over Zhaoguo, he would inevitably change the previous scene and wanton destruction and killing, and the Bai family, who was known for generations of famous generals, would bear the brunt.

The emperor's order is difficult to do, Yi Chenjing has to send troops to the north, and the prince's auxiliary government cannot be reversed.

"Which is easier to let the emperor change his decision to go on the expedition or to overthrow the prince's faction within three months?" Bai Qige said in a low voice.

The flat tone seemed to be talking about the shortcomings of the parents, Yi Chenjing's appreciative gaze flickered, and a smile appeared on Qingjun's face: "If my father can change his mind, I will try to persuade him if I go early, and the answer is self-evident." It is not impossible for you to delay or simply prevent the disaster from happening with your ingenuity, if the prince's faction loses power, you can protect your Bai family from the danger of annihilation, and I can also eliminate a major opponent, which is why I allow you to return to Zhaoguo - provided that you find a way to deal with the prince's faction for me. ”

"What a profiteer." Bai Qige smiled lightly, but his heart sank like a thousand catties of boulders.

Yi Chenjing, who squeezes her value and seeks the world for herself, she doesn't want to see.

No one likes the feeling of being used as a tool, but in troubled times, on the cusp of power disputes, who can stand alone in the mud without being stained? Bai Qige can't, and he Yi Chenjing has been burdened with the shame of being a prince for ten years, and even more can't.

"On the prince's side, I will find a way to start from other aspects, before this our agreement is still the same, as long as the power is still in your hands, you must protect the Bai family to the end, otherwise you may have no chance to retaliate." Putting on the cloak and looking back, the determined color in Bai Qige's eyes was eye-catching, "I will live and die with the Bai family, maybe I will remember the truth one day, I don't want me to die, I don't want the mystery of Princess Hongxuan to be buried, then please do your best to protect my family." ”

"Where are you going?" Yi Chenjing lowered his voice, and his tone was a little cold.

"Now I'm not even in the mood to die, where else can I go? Go out for a walk. ”

The indifferent words disappeared outside the door with the thin figure, Yi Chenjing stared at the door for a while, sat on the chair and closed his eyes tiredly.

Since being punished and freezing overnight two days ago, Bai Qige suddenly became detached, and there was always a deep meaning in his eyes that he couldn't read. On the surface, he seems to be more active in contacting him, but every time he talks, he always feels that the distance between the two people who have finally narrowed is estranged again, so far away that he can no longer see the only remaining truth.

This feeling made Yi Chenjing very unhappy, and now Bai Qige had become the most powerful subordinate after the war court - if she could be called that, her evasion and concealment would make the trust he had tried so hard to persuade him to deliver disappear again, and it would be an immeasurable loss.

Smart, smart, and strong are better than men, and what those clear eyes see is not that he is forbearant and silent, but that the mountains and rivers under his feet are infinite, looking at all directions.

The woman who understands him is the only one in the world, and even the red silk who loves him deeply cannot be compared.

"Miss, it's getting dark, where are you going now?" Yu Che trotted to follow Bai Qige who was hurrying forward, watching the master continue to speed up his pace while vigilantly checking whether he was being followed, of course Yu Che would not be so stupid as to really think that Bai Qige was going for a walk, but the road he took had never been before, and he didn't know where it was connected.

"Go outside the palace." Bai Qige said succinctly, "I asked the war court, and Yun Zhongjin was training in the school military field not far from the palace. ”

If you want to know what happened that day and how Princess Hongxuan died, the only person who knows the truth now is probably Yun Zhongjin. Since in Yu Che's memory, Yun Zhongjin said that Bai Qige himself murdered and threatened him, thinking that he was present at the time, and it was even very likely that he knew the inside story, and now he has no clue and only has this clue to continue to follow.

Yu Che was a maid after all, no matter how worried she was, she couldn't disobey Bai Qige's decision, so she could only follow behind her with fear, and sneak out of the palace while the night was about to fall.

It is easy to go out of the palace and it is difficult to get in, before Yi Chenjing specially handed her a pass token in order to facilitate Bai Qige's actions, yes, and Bai Qige was not worried about the problem of access control when she returned, and all she wanted was to hurry to the school military field to ask the truth. In three months, Yi Chenjing will lead the army to the battle, and Yun Zhongjin, as a subordinate deputy general, must also go together, the battlefield is ruthless, if you don't hurry up to find an answer, who knows that Yun Zhongjin will still have his life after the end of the battle and ask again?

Inquired all the way to the school military field, night fell at the right time, and Bai Qige easily found Yun Zhongjin's residence with the help of the pass token.

As a general of the enemy country who betrayed the country and sought glory, Yun Zhongjin's life was not as good as he imagined, and a few simple courtyards in the corner of the empty school military field were temporary residences.

"What is there to see? You and I are traitors who betrayed Zhaoguo, even if we go to Dayao, we will still be despised, the princess is like a maid, and my general is like a subordinate, which is no better. Yun Zhongjin was very surprised by Bai Qige's appearance, but he didn't forget to say a few sarcastic words while being surprised, and the bitterness and dissatisfaction in his heart could be seen.

"I'm not interested in hearing you complain, I'm here to ask something."

"Ask me? It's about Princess Hongfei again? Yun Zhongjin snorted, "It seems that you really can't remember anything, which is fine, so that you don't have a shame in your heart." Glancing at Yu Che, who was full of vigilance, Yun Zhongjin rudely pulled Bai Qige over: "Inside, I haven't been able to talk so well that even my subordinates can watch the joke on the sidelines!" ”

In his memory, Bai Qige was very afraid of Yun Zhongjin, Yu Che subconsciously blocked between the two but was pushed away by Yun Zhongjin, Bai Qige shook his head lightly and motioned for Yu Che to wait outside, and entered the inner room alone with Yun Zhongjin.

"You were indeed present on the day of the accident, but what you said in front of Yi Chenjing was not all true. Although I was frightened and forgot many things, I still have a vague impression of what happened that day, and if I remember correctly, you are also one of the people who hurt Princess Hongxi, right? Bai Qige responded calmly, and asked tentatively with the few words he got from Yu Che.

Yun Zhongjin's face was blue and white for a while, and the yin owl stared at Bai Qige for a long time, just when Bai Qige thought that he didn't plan to tell the truth, Yun Zhongjin suddenly approached him, and his smile was ambiguous and hideous.

"Anyway, I used to be your fiancé, and watching my woman marry someone else, I always feel a little unhappy." The jaw is raised high, and the rough fingers scrape against the cheek, causing a slight pain. Bai Qige raised his head coldly, the corners of Yun Zhongjin's mouth twitched, and the breath he spit out fell on the scarred face: "The Seventh Prince can still be interested when he looks at your face, is there something else to lose his soul?" In that case, how can I not love it and taste the taste of a woman who belongs to me? ”

With a cold back, Bai Qige, who kept retreating under Yun Zhongjin's approach, hit the wall, and the ill-intentioned man stretched out his arms and circled her in front of him, his breath getting heavier and heavier.

When he was a traitor to the Seven Princes of Da Yao, he spent all day drinking and being surrounded by beauty, Zhao Guo was broken, Yi Chenjing gave Yun Zhongjin a military position but cut off his life of lustful dogs and horses, Vice General Yun, who had not touched a woman for several months, couldn't care about beauty and ugliness at the moment, as long as he could vent his desires, it didn't matter if it was a faceless ugly girl.

What's more, the thin woman in front of her is just a remnant of grace, and no one will take care of her no matter how she ravages her.

The dirty big hand grasped the thin shoulder, the beast-like heat accompanied by foul language lingered on the side of the ear, and through the heavy cotton clothes in winter, Bai Qige clearly felt that something hard hit his lower body intentionally or unintentionally. Inexorably, anger and disgust reigned in the hands of the thin hands clenched into fists, almost crushing as the hot lips pressed against the earlobes.

"Thank you so much, Third Miss, if it weren't for you, how could I have tasted the best in the world like Princess Hongxuan?"

The taunt muttered, and instantly turned into earth-shattering thunder.
