Chapter 401: Inevitability
In the front hall, the second prince and Zhao Qifang were eating tea silently.
Zhao Qifang was dressed in a royal blue brocade skirt with a placket collar, with a crescent white tassel on her shoulders, a peony bun combed on her head, and a peony spike in the middle of the bun. The makeup on her face is very exquisite, bringing out her originally slightly delicate facial features.
Zhao Qifang didn't want to lose to Qi Miao.
She peeked at the second prince and found that the second prince was sitting with his eyes down, sitting very upright, with the light green Suzhou embroidered robe on his body, the whole person was like a green bamboo, and there was a bit of chic in the straight.
Zhao Qifang's heart jumped wildly inexplicably.
The second prince noticed Zhao Qifang's advance and inquired.
Zhao Qifang hurriedly put out a smile and said, "Later, the concubine will go to see Mrs. Bai." ”
The second prince bowed lightly.
He lowered his eyes, not wanting to look at Zhao Qifang's obsessed eyes, at this time his mind was chaotic like a ball of cotton wool, indistinguishable, he couldn't be sure what his life experience was, this uncertainty made him afraid.
Sometimes he doesn't want to pursue it, so let's go on like this. But he couldn't be sure if Bai Xiyun was really the prince, and he didn't know if Bai Xiyun felt that he was the prince, whether he would come to compete with him for his identity.
Now at this juncture, he has no intention of harming others, but he is also worried that he will be killed!
Zhao Qifang found that the second prince looked unhappy, and lowered his head and pouted. Seeing Qi's birth, is it that the prince of her family is a taste? She still thinks that their prince is a saint-like character, knowing that the other party is a married woman, knowing that the other party is pregnant, and can still love her with all his heart, and now knowing that she gave birth to a son to someone else, he can't stand it, is this sad?
Zhao Qifang's heart was very sour, if it weren't for the little reason she still retained, she would almost be able to hold back the evil words she spoke.
Fortunately, Bai Xiyun arrived at this time.
"Your Highness. Princess. Bai Xiyun entered the door and saluted the two.
On weekdays, Bai Xiyun is cold, although he is well-mannered, he is also calm and sophisticated, but today he didn't want him to become angry, and he rushed in like a gust of wind, and even the wind he brought in seemed to be cheerful.
The second prince smiled and arched his hand: "Congratulations, now that I am a father, the whole person is different." ”
"Your Highness, don't laugh at me," Bai Xiyun smiled heartily and said, "In the future, you will also be a father one day, so you are not afraid that I will laugh at you when the time comes?"
"You have this heart, and the king of this book will take the opportunity to make fun of you!"
The second prince and Bai Xiyun glanced at each other, and they both laughed again.
Finding that Bai Xiyun was no different from him, the second prince relaxed a little.
However, Bai Xiyun keenly discovered that the second prince treated him with some alienation and stiff closeness that could be hidden.
He sighed sadly.
In the end, it's still a raw point!
Although Bai Xiyun's sober mind had long analyzed the current situation, when the matter came, he saw with his own eyes that Bai Xiyun's heart was still like a stone, and he was depressed and painful. If it's just a raw point, it's okay, the most heart-wrenching thing is that such a vain and wrongful trick is also used to deal with your own people.
He was more and more sure that the second prince must have heard something in the Bai family and believed it.
The temperament of the second prince, Bai Xiyun grew up with him since he was a child, and he can't understand it best. Now like this, it is impossible to eliminate the mustard in each other's hearts, and in the future, they just want to be able to live in peace with each other.
Bai Xiyun felt sad and thought a lot, but in reality, he only breathed.
After taking a seat, Zhao Qifang said with a smile: "I don't know how Mrs. Bai is now." I'm going to take a look on behalf of the prince. ”
Bai Xiyun knew that Zhao Qifang was hostile to Qi Miao, but it was not good to refuse directly in front of the second prince, so he only smiled and said: "Neiko is weak after giving birth, and I am afraid that she is ......asleep at this time."
"It just so happens that I'm going to see her. I also met the little boy by the way. Zhao Qifang was afraid that Bai Xiyun would continue to refuse, so he grabbed Bai quickly.
Bai Xiyun groaned slightly, and nodded.
Anyway, there are a lot of people around, and Zhao Qifang can't do anything.
Zhao Qifang secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, turned to salute the second prince, and went to the inner house surrounded by maidservants.
The second prince picked up the tea bowl and ate a few bites, and then said: "I didn't expect the Qi family to produce so quickly." Didn't you just start having a seizure when you got the news? How can it be safely produced in such a while. ”
Bai Xiyun said with a smile: "She is a doctor herself, and she also knows her own body, and she specially prepared a decoction of inducing labor that is suitable for her physique, plus she should be fully prepared, and she will take the medicine immediately if she finds something abnormal, and she will give birth smoothly in just a stick of incense." ”
"That's a blessing. The second prince smiled: "When the princess of this king is going to give birth in the future, I will also ask for the help of the Qi family." As soon as this incident came out, many women from the city's families were waiting to beg her. ”
"But the treatment of the prince is naturally different. Bai Xiyun smiled, but felt a little lost in his heart, the name of his brother and sister in the past, but now the title has changed, it seems that he is really angry.
He still has to find an opportunity to send a letter to Concubine Wan and ask her to be careful. It is also necessary to carefully investigate and confirm what happened to the second prince and the Bai family to cause the current changes.
Bai Xiyun planned in his heart, but he chatted with the second prince very easily and naturally.
At this time, Zhao Qifang had already arrived at the inner house, but he only entered the delivery room for a moment, and psychologically felt that the smell was unpleasant, so he went back to cover his mouth with a handkerchief. I went to see the little boy again, and when I saw him, the child began to cry, which provoked the nurse to hurriedly hold the child and confess her sin, and take it back to feed.
Zhao Qifang pouted. She probably doesn't agree with anything related to Qi Miao.
In the face of Princess De, the Zhou family and the Liu family were speechless, and there were no respected female elders in the house, fortunately, Qi was here, and now Mei Ruoxin has entered the palace and has become the emperor's guard, which can be said to be a close minister next to the Son of Heaven. Qi Hao is Qi Miao's sister again, and her husband's family or her mother's family are decent, so she can barely talk back to Princess De.
The princess also invited her to sit in the flower hall, and the servants had already prepared good tea. Qi Hao smiled and invited.
Zhao Qifang smiled and nodded, and went to eat tea with Qi Hao, she spoke softly, and her smile was decent, giving people a dignified and virtuous feeling.
Qi Hao chatted with him first, and he had the right to treat guests on behalf of his sister-in-law's family, and he didn't show stealing.
And at this moment, I saw a little girl walking into the yard quickly, and hesitated to probe her brain in front of the door.
Originally, Qi Hao didn't want to pay attention to it.
But Zhao Qifang was bored, so he opened his mouth and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
The little girl didn't hear clearly, thinking that it was Qi Hao's order, so she hurriedly came in and curts: "The lord and wife of the Bai family outside came, saying that he heard that his wife gave birth to a son, and he came to recognize his grandson." His Royal Highness King Toku and your Excellency are talking to them in front of you. ”
"Got it. Qi Hao frowned and waved his hand.
Zhao Qifang observed the words, and then smiled: "This Bai family is also very interesting. ”
Qi Hao's complexion gradually became difficult to look at.
The housework of the Bai family is equivalent to the ugly affairs of the sister's family. Zhao Qifang is the princess of Germany, and they only get along for so long, Qi Hao clearly feels that Zhao Qifang has no good intentions towards Qi Miao. Raising the ugliness of the family in front of outsiders is really not a name move.
Without waiting for Qi Hao to speak, Zhao Qifang had already said: "Let's go, go outside?" looked like he was waiting to see a good show.
Qi Hao forcibly suppressed the urge to grit his teeth, and said with a smile: "The princess is not in a hurry, let's try this tea first." I heard my brother-in-law say that this is a top-level big red robe, and now there is not much left of the mother tree. ”
Zhao Qifang smiled and said, "I don't love these." ”
"I know that the princess really loves calligraphy. Qi Hao said with admiration on his face: "Who doesn't know about your calligraphy in Beijing, who knows the women in our circle? ”
Zhao Qifang was comfortable when she was praised, and said with a smile: "What's so difficult about that, I'll give you a pair another day." ”
Qi Hao's face showed just the right amount of surprise, and he got up and saluted: "Then thank you princess." ”
Zhao Qifang smiled and waved his hand. When Qi Hao sat down, she remembered to go out to see the excitement, but just as she was about to speak, Qi Hao found a new topic, so she could only press it. When a topic is over, when she wants to speak, Qi Hao can always introduce a new topic just right, but it doesn't make her feel bored.
Zhao Qifang knew that this pair of sisters from the Qi family were both goblins!
When Zhao Qifang was forced to stay and chat, Bai Xiyun in the outer courtyard had already returned the gift sent by Bai Xiwan, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your kindness, but my eldest brother and I are now a family, taking care of each other, and living well." The third brother not only wants his parents to be filial piety in the future, but also has the old lady to serve, and there are two sisters who have not yet come out of the cabinet, and the pressure on life is really great. ”
Bai Xidui felt that her face was spicy, as if she had been slapped a few times by someone.
He knew that Bai Xiyun was too rich. No amount of silver he took out was enough for others to see, not to mention that they didn't fight each other for a day or two, even if they brought a gift to congratulate them on their happy success, it couldn't make up for the past grievances between the two families. It's hard to please now.
Thinking of Bai Yongchun, who was waiting at the door and would rather stand than come in with him, Bai Xidui sneered in his heart.
stood up and said, "Since this is the case, I won't bother the second brother to talk to His Royal Highness King De, and there is still something at home, so I will leave." ”
Bai Xiyun naturally didn't stay long, and only smiled and said, "Xilai, send the third master for me." ”
Xilai smiled and stepped forward to send Bai Xiwan out.
And the second prince watched Bai Xiwan go out in silence, and said for a long time: "After all, I can't be a family." ”
Bai Xiyun's heart moved slightly, and he asked quietly, "What did Your Highness say?"
