Chapter 005: The New Concubine of the Concubine
As a prisoner, he dared to talk about any deal, which was really ridiculous in Yi Chenjing's opinion, her people and her life belonged to him, and he was not qualified to negotiate conditions at all.
"What else do you have besides this skin? Putting aside the identity of the third lady of the Bai family, you are nothing more than an ugly, disgusting and despicable woman. "I can't remember that in the past, this kind of rhetoric could only be used to deceive the child, for him, it was an obvious deception, and Yi Chenjing was not moved at all.
"And how good can you do to beat or scold an unarmed woman?" Bai Qige did not flinch in the slightest, and the tiredness and disgust that was neither anger nor hatred haunted his heart, "Leading troops to fight a war and winning by shameless means, and indiscriminately harming people's lives based on speculation alone, the seven princes of the dignified and distant country are so unbearable, this is the true nature that you can't hide!" β
Although it is not clear what Bai Qige's motive was for stealing the defense map, it is an indisputable fact that he handed over the defense map to his fiancΓ© Jun and then forwarded it to Yi Chenjing.
Keep your eyes open and take a closer look, who is clean in this world? She Bai Qige is a bad person, and he Yi Chenjing may not be a good person.
The straightforward, harsh and merciless accusation ordered Yi Chenjing to be speechless, when did Bai Qige, who was always laughed at by the red silk gourd, have such sharp teeth, and even look at other people's eyes so boldly and fearlessly?
However, a person's disgust will not be forgotten because he is also guilty of sin, and the hatred that has been hidden for countless days and nights cannot be erased. Yi Chenjing remembered it deeply, remembering that day when he desperately made war exploits and was rewarded by his father, he happily sent someone to propose to King Zhao but received bad news.
Raising his palm to strangle his slender neck, Yi Chenjing's eyes were bloodshot, and the words were fierce: "I have never said that I am innocent, even if I kill all the people in the world, I have to avenge Hongxuan, and you ...... I'll find evidence to convince you, and at that point, don't blame me for being ruthless and not remembering the old love! β
Isn't it just as ruthless now that no evidence has been found?
Bai Qige wanted to laugh at his contradictions, but he couldn't say half a word, and the feeling of suffocation spread from his chest to his whole body, intertwined with the dampness and coldness of his body, which was more painful than a simple knife.
The vision gradually blurred, and Bai Qige tried his best to maintain a calm complexion, calm and calm.
Isn't what he wants to see her in pain?
Then, even if the end is death, he will never be taught to get his wish.
"Your Highness, what are you doing here?!" Bursting open, a figure pushed the door open, witnessing the near-end tragedy in the dark room.
The person who came was a young woman, with warm eyebrows and eyes, peach blossoms, and a water-green skirt lined with a graceful and noble figure, and her high cloud temples explained the identity of a woman. It was this person's intrusion that saved Bai Qige's life - although Yi Chenjing was cold, it was only for Bai Qige, and when he saw the woman breaking in, he let go of his hand, and Bai Qige collapsed on the side of the bed.
"Su Yan, who asked you to come here?" With a slight dissatisfaction in his words but not a reproach, Yi Chenjing glanced sideways at Bai Qige, turned around and pushed the woman out, "The lower room is damp and dark, don't come to this kind of place when you're fine." It just so happens that I'm going to say goodbye to my mother, so you'll be okay with me. β
The woman nodded meekly and looked at Bai Qige with some hesitation: "This is Princess Qi'an?" β
"When the time comes, I will introduce you and Su Rao. I don't have to call her a princess when I see her in the future, but she is just a commoner who is married off, and she is only worthy of you as a maid. β
As if he didn't want the woman to come into contact with Bai Qige, Yi Chenjing pushed her out of the house and closed the door.
The girl still has the freedom to move around, and she can only huddle in a corner with an injury, but her range of motion is only a few steps. Worst of all, the plan to make a deal with Yi Chenjing in order to protect himself was shattered, and Bai Qige had to find a new way to seize every opportunity to survive.
After some tossing, the already weak and weak body became more and more tired, Bai Qige simply wiped her body and changed into the old skirt of the maid, and lay down in her clothes and closed her eyes for a rest.
Who knows when that crazy man will appear again, and if you don't want to be tortured to death by him, you have to learn to take care of yourself and do your best.
Fortunately, Yi Chenjing did not come to the room again, until before dark, Bai Qige was lying quietly on the bed alone, listening to the wind outside the house blowing the green branches and the cicadas chirping, no one disturbed or came to take care of it.
Time flies by in silence.
When I opened my eyes again, it was already twilight, and there was a small friction sound outside that woke Bai Qige, and she leaned over and listened carefully, and after a while she realized that it was the sound of someone lightly removing the chain on the door.
It's not Yi Chenjing, he doesn't have a reason to be so careful.
Could it be someone who came to deliver the food? Bai Qige couldn't help but swallow her saliva. One day, when I woke up hungry, I subconsciously hoped that someone would bring some food and water, even if it was just a bowl of clear soup.
After a moment of tinkering, the people outside the door finally succeeded in removing the iron chain and pushing the door open, probably for fear of being discovered, and immediately closed the door when they entered the house and sighed softly: "Don't make a noise, be careful to let people hear." β
The voice was soft and tactful, like a yellow bird, and the concern was overflowing.
"Is that you?" Bai Qige was unexpected.
The water-green figure I saw earlier today, it was the woman who suddenly broke in and was taken away by Yi Chenjing, and her eyes contained a lot of worries before leaving, which made Bai Qige feel good before she could talk to her.
"Princess Qi'an called me Su Yan. I haven't been in the dust Xuan for a long time, and many things are not very clear, and I don't dare to ask more when I see you and Your Highness in the daytime, so I can only sneak over at this time to take a look. Su Yan took the oil lamp by the window and lit it, and the cold room immediately became a little warmer.
Bai Qige's eyes froze, and the faintly wafting wisps of fragrance made her hungry and screaming, and her expression couldn't help but be a little dazed, Su Yan saw this and hurriedly opened the food box in his hand and put it on the bed, a few dishes and a bowl of rice in it were carefully heated at first glance, and the aroma of the vegetables was even stronger.
"I heard that the people in the yard said that no one has delivered food here, thinking that you are not looking good, I am afraid that you are sick, so I just asked for some leftovers from the backyard kitchen, and the leftovers have been hastily heated, and I don't know if it suits your appetite." Carefully put the chopsticks into Bai Qi's singer, and when his eyes swept over the blood-stained wrist, Su Yan gently inhaled a cool breath, "Why did you hurt like this?" I'm going to get some creative medicine--"
"No need." Bai Qige hurriedly grabbed the corner of Su Yan's clothes and almost knocked over the food box.
Yi Chenjing hated her to the core, but she was afraid that the people who helped her would also suffer, Bai Qige was worried that Su Yan would be embarrassed by Yi Chenjing because of this, so she took action to stop her, more is better than less, it is beneficial and harmless to others and herself.
"There is no need for creative medicine, and the wound must be treated simply." couldn't help but say that he pulled Bai Qige's wrist, Su Yan took out a clean and tidy sweat towel and dipped it in the remaining water in the copper basin and wiped it carefully.
In this situation, I suddenly thought of the seniors who took good care of me when I first entered the military academy. As soon as her heart warmed, Bai Qige wiped the sweat stains on Su Yan's head through her sleeves and smiled softly.
"Thank you."
"I owe you a thank you."
The simple but sincere thank you made Su Yan dissipate his initial restraint, and the two of them exchanged a few words of conversation and became more and more familiar.
"I also have a sister named Su Rao, and now she is also serving His Royal Highness in the Dust Xuan. Dad was originally a high-ranking official in the court, more than 10 years ago, a sudden illness left our mother and daughter forever separated, until the year before last, we have been sending people to live on my uncle's meager income. Speaking of the past, I couldn't help but feel down, but seeing Bai Qige gobbling up, Su Yan couldn't help laughing, "Slow down, be careful to choke - Later, His Royal Highness found us and said that his father had been kind to him, and he had to settle down with our mother and daughter anyway, so Su Rao and I said goodbye to our uncle and entered the palace as maids. β
"In other words, you and your sister are Yi Chenjing's wives?" Bai Qi sang and choked for a while before she could speak smoothly.
In fact, Bai Qige had already guessed in his heart, seeing that Yi Chenjing was extremely gentle to Su Yan during the day, the relationship between the two was obviously extraordinary, but he was only in contact with his usual cold and gloomy owl in his memory, how could he not accept the fact that such a gentle lady was actually his wife.
Listening to Bai Qige's question, Su Yan lowered her head and covered her mouth and chuckled, her cheeks crimson: "Princess Qi'an said that she laughed, how can a person from a humble background like me be the main family of the prince?" Although it was the emperor's marriage, His Royal Highness had already publicly stated that his heart belonged, and Su Rao and I were just serving in the dust room as concubines. β
"It's a pity for your gentleness and kindness."
Bai Qige felt a little sorry in his heart, Yi Chenjing's so-called heart belonged to Princess Hongxuan, a woman who had been dead for three years covered his eyes, and there was obviously a good wife around him who was worthy of his love and spoiling, why did he have to immerse himself in the past love and hate entanglement and couldn't extricate himself? Is the princess really that good, good enough to make the prince of the enemy country crazy?
Xu is that education in different eras has created different personalities, Su Yan doesn't care about this: "It's enough to serve His Highness, and any more is a luxury, if it weren't for His Highness's help, I think that Su Rao and I are still ordinary people, or I don't know who to marry into and suffer." It's Princess Qi'an, you, obviously came by marriage, why do you look so contradictory and antagonistic with Your Highness? We women always have to rely on men to seek a place to live a stable life, the husband is the heaven and the earth is the backer, if there is any entanglement, just say it, he will be the princess one day, what can I do like this. β
"She's never going to be the main room."
Before Bai Qige could speak, someone answered coldly from the side.
Both Su Yan and Bai Qige were very familiar with this voice, but without waiting to turn around and see who the person who suddenly pushed the door in, Su Yan's face was already white, and his fingertips trembled: "Your Royal Highness is angry, Princess Qi'an is injured and sick and has no one to bring water and food, so I just--"
Yi Chenjing interrupted Su Yan's words with a calm face, and paced to the side of the bed with his hands in his hands.
"Pity her? I ask you, do you know her well? Knowing people and knowing faces but not knowing their hearts, Su Yan, the woman in front of you is not worthy of pity, she can't bear to kill people who are like sisters, and if you treat her well, it is equivalent to helping her abuse! β
The wind swept through the side sleeves of his face, and the sound of dishes colliding and shattering pierced his eardrums, and Bai Qige watched as the warm meal that he hadn't eaten a few bites of was spilled on the ground.
