Chapter 124: Distress
Time passed, winter went to spring, and I thought that the matter in Ningzhou would end soon, but until the beginning of spring in March, Gao Zhen did not return to the court.
For a time, the folds of the impeachment of Gao Zhen by the Yushitai were piled up on Luo Qingzhi's bookcase.
Today, Luo Qingzhi summoned Baili Xi and Baili Han to the study.
Baili Han took the lead and said, "Your Highness, the excerpt of the Imperial Historical Observatory must not be returned."
Luo Qingzhi nodded, "I know, take it slowly."
Bai Lihan wanted to continue to elaborate, but Bai Li Xi stopped him and said, "Your Highness also has her difficulties, don't force her like this."
"Knock-knock!"
There was a knock on the door, and Luo Qingzhi raised her hand, "Xuan."
Yuan Ying, who was dressed in armor, walked in quickly and saluted, "Subordinates, see Your Highness."
Luo Qingzhi raised her hand, "Get up."
"Done?" Luo Qingzhi asked.
Yuan Ying nodded, "Yes."
Luo Qingzhi saw Yuan Ying's servants and said, "Let's go down first, and I'll talk back later."
"Yes, my subordinates are retiring."
Yuan Ying left, and Bai Li Xi said, "No wonder I haven't seen the Great Commander in the past few months, it turned out that you sent it out."
Luo Qingzhi didn't want to hide it, so she said directly, "I'll let him settle Concubine Shu."
Baili Han frowned, "You, hey, forget it, you're not a ruthless person."
"But," Bailihan continued, "you have left yourself a curse."
「......」
Luo Qingzhi said, "When I was a child, I heard my father talk about the chaos of war, and at that time, I felt that everything in this world is not just a way of fighting."
Baili Xi sighed, "I trust your judgment, but when it comes to Gao Zhen's matter, three months have passed, and Gao Zhen has not returned to the dynasty for a long time, which is not appropriate."
Luo Qingzhi nodded, "I have already passed the book to Qin Shu, and it is estimated that in just a few days, he will arrive in the capital, and then we will discuss it again."
Bai Lihan compromised, and then asked, "Your Majesty's Taifu candidate, is there a conclusion?"
"I belong to my uncle." As soon as Luo Qingzhi finished speaking, Baili Han immediately saluted, "No."
"I know." Luo Qingzhi sighed.
"You are my uncle, I am already the regent, if you are Your Majesty's concubine again, then it will be really difficult for my Luo family and Baili family to gain a foothold." Luo Qingzhi said.
Baili Xi said, "Why don't I recommend someone to you."
"Who?" Luo Qingzhi hurriedly asked.
"Summer." Baili Xi said.
Luo Qingzhi asked, "But, isn't he missing?"
Baili Xi shook his head, "He's always been in touch with me."
「......」
Baili Xi explained, "I still trust Xia Ji's personality, maybe, you can give him a chance to explain."
"Actually, I can't remember many things in those two years, but I know that he has no ill will towards me." Luo Qingzhi looked at Baili Xi, "Then, I'll bother the wai weng to send a message to him, I want to meet him."
"Yes."
Baili Xi and Baili Han retreated.
The palace people came with Gao Ji to ask for peace.
"Ji'er has seen her aunt, aunt Wan'an."
Gao Ji could already fully express his meaning, Luo Qingzhi smiled, bent down and hugged him.
"What did Ji'er do today?"
Gao Ji thought for a while and replied, "I ate lotus cake and drank osmanthus wine."
"Wine?"
The palace people who served immediately knelt down, "No, Your Highness, it's not wine, it's osmanthus soaked water, soaked water."
Luo Qingzhi said, "Get up."
"Your Highness."
Luo Qingzhi looked at Gao Ji again, "Ji'er, my aunt is going to find you a master, and in the future, Ji'er will start studying."
When Gao Ji heard the word reading, he was obviously depressed.
Luo Qingzhi smiled, "Only by reading can you understand reason, understand
White, Ji'er."
Gao Ji nodded a little confusedly, "Auntie likes it, Ji'er does it."
Luo Qingzhi stared at Gao Ji, always feeling a sense of pity involuntarily.
"Take good care of Your Majesty." Luo Qingzhi instructed the palace people.
"Yes, Your Highness."
Gao Ji was taken away, and Luo Qingzhi was left alone in the entire study.
She didn't like to be surrounded by people, so there were hardly any guards where she was.
That night, Baili Xi sent a message from Xia Ji.
The two met on the second day at the Lingyin Temple on the outskirts of Beijing.
Early in the morning of the second day, Luo Qingzhi took Baili Han out of the capital and went to Lingyin Temple.
Lingyin Temple is the most prosperous place of incense in Jinling, among them, seeking marriage is the most effective.
Luo Qingzhi reined in his horse and went down, and after waiting for a while, Bailihan's carriage also arrived.
Baili Han got out of the car, his pace was a little unsteady, and his tone was a little complaining, "You ride so fast, people can't run."
Out of the imperial city, Luo Qingzhi didn't have to pay attention to her words and deeds at all times, and she also joked between her words, "It's uncle, your carriage is too slow."
Baili Han shook his head and stretched out his hand to make a "please" gesture, "Then, let's go."
Luo Qingzhi smiled, "Uncle please."
Bai Lihan walked a few steps, and suddenly said, "I remembered that when you were just born, Father also went to the Lingyin Temple to give you a divination."
"This is the first time I've heard about this, what is the result?" Luo Qingzhi asked.
While speaking, the two walked to the mountain gate, and Baili Han stepped into the threshold first, turned his head and said, "The master said, you have a robbery today."
Luo Qingzhi was stunned, still thinking about the meaning of Baili Han, but a woman who looked exactly like herself appeared in front of her.
Baili Han turned around, and in an instant, he waved his fan, fascinating Luo Qingzhi.
Luo Qingzhi forced her eyes open, but before she was completely unconscious, she saw Xia Ji.
At night, Baili Xi waited anxiously in the study of the imperial city.
The subordinates reported that Luo Qingzhi and Baili Han were not found in Lingyin Temple.
Baili Xi's heart tightened, and he was suddenly a little worried.
"Father, we're back."
Suddenly, a familiar voice came, and Baili Xi turned around.
Bai Lihan and Luo Qingzhi entered the study one after the other.
"Why is it so late?" Baili Xi asked.
Bai Lihan replied, "The carriage broke down on the road, so it was delayed for a while."
Baili Xi didn't doubt it, looked at Luo Qingzhi, and asked, "Have you negotiated?"
"Huh? Hmm." Luo Qingzhi replied, "Let's talk, let's talk."
"What's wrong with you?" Baili Xi asked.
Bai Lihan explained, "It's okay, Qingqing is just thinking about things."
Luo Qingzhi nodded, "Yes, I'm thinking about what I just talked to Xia Ji."
"He made unreasonable conditions?" Baili Xi asked.
Bai Lihan shook his head, "No, it's just that he hopes to stay in the palace."
"Then how can I do it," Baili Xi said, "how can he live in the palace as a foreign man."
"Qingqing thinks the same way, so she hasn't agreed yet." Baili Han explained.
Baili Xi glared at Baili Han, "Why do you have so many words today."
Baili Han smiled, "Haven't I always been like this?"
Baili Xi frowned, "What happened in the Lingyin Temple?"
