Bai Haocheng stared at Yi Chenjing in surprise. His eyes were filled with disbelief: "What does the prince mean by this?"
"I know you are here to save her." Yi Chenjing bent down and picked up Bai Haocheng's sword from the ground. He handed it over with a calm expression. "When you arrived in the imperial capital, you didn't look for me first but looked for Yu Che first. At that time I I guess you didn't come here to say goodbye to Qi Ge."
Of course, if you want to save people, you can't die alone. Baihaocheng is indeed well prepared. With Yu Che's help, more than ten generals who have followed him for many years sneaked into the palace last night. They are now not far outside the heavenly prison. As long as he sends a signal, those people will not hesitate to kill and fight to save Bai Qige.
"If you don't stop me, you will be implicated if I kidnap Qi Ge." Bai Haocheng took the sword, still a little doubtful.
"If you were afraid that you would kidnap her, why would I bring you in?" Yi Chenjing forced a smile on her lips. She still couldn't bear to let go of Bai Qige's hand. If Bai Haocheng hadn't come to Yaoguo, then Bai Qige would have escaped if she was kidnapped. No relationship; here, he has another way to choose... The person was kidnapped by Bai Haocheng. When Yaohuang pursues him, he can show his ignorance with his hands spread out. It doesn't matter even if someone testifies that he was present. There are so many other parties. As for humans, two fists are hard to beat with four hands. It’s no wonder he lost.
When Bai Haocheng took the initiative to contact him to meet Bai Qige, Yi Chenjing had already thought of this plan.
He hugged Bai Qige tightly with one hand and unsheathed his sword with the other. Bai Haocheng no longer had any doubts. He nodded heavily towards Yi Chenjing: "The prince's trust, Bai Haocheng will never let him down. Even if I die, I must let Qige leave safely."
"You're dead. What should she do?" Yi Chenjing did not express gratitude for Bai Haocheng's oath. Instead, she asked a question that was neither salty nor indifferent. The meaningful tone made Bai Haocheng speechless for a moment. After a short pause, Yi Chenjing gently pushed it away. Bai Qige's face was messy with messy hair. Her eyes were focused and calm: "General Bai, maybe Qi Ge and I will never meet again. The only person in this world who can protect her is you. If you are not here, who else can? Guard her for me and stay with her forever."
Bai Haocheng lowered his head and looked at Bai Qige's sleepy face. He savored what Yi Chenjing said over and over again. His heart suddenly trembled: "You heard it all."
People always ignore their surroundings when they are excited. This is a death row. It is usually so quiet that you can hear your breathing clearly. How could Yi Chenjing, who was standing not far away, not hear it? Yi Chenjing took a long breath: "Actually, even if Even though I didn't hear it, I roughly guessed it. Your love for Qi Ge has gone beyond that of brother and sister. I can tell by the look in your eyes."
Falling in love with one's biological sister is an unethical love. Bai Haocheng knew how shameful this was. His mouth was half open. He hesitated for a long time but could not give any explanation. In contrast, Yi Chenjing, who should be the most surprised and angry, was unusually calm. . He had been alert as early as the last time Bai Haocheng came to the palace to visit Bai Qige. Now his speculation has been confirmed. What's more, running away is now Bai Qige's only way to survive. The deeper Bai Haocheng's feelings for her, the safer Bai Qige will be.
In the final analysis, Bai Qige's life is the most important.
There were three knocks at the door of the prison. It was the jailer reporting the news. There were only three hours left before Bai Qige's execution. Yi Chenjing took a deep breath to get rid of distracting thoughts. She took out the Cuihuang Sword from under her clothes and pinned it on Bai Qige's waist. The instructions were clear and coherent: "When she wakes up, you must tell her that I am fine. I will not be punished in any way because of your accusation of being in Jie Tian Prison. Tell her not to think about coming back. I have long thought about the military power of the three armies of Zhao Kingdom." The solution is left to you, right? If King Min wants to remove your military power, you should resist appropriately. I have always been taking care of the affairs of Zhao State. My father wanted to find someone to replace him temporarily, but there was no suitable candidate. Rebellion or independence is up to you. Also, let Yu Che go with you. She knows the prescription for cold syndrome. She usually drinks one bowl every day and one bowl every three hours when she is sick. It must be drunk hot. Qi Ge doesn’t like to drink medicine. She always pours it out secretly. She keeps an eye on the bedside and bedside. She fools her if she is not careful..."
Yi Chenjing forced King Zhaomin to hand over the military power of the three armies of Zhao Kingdom to Bai Haocheng earlier. It is not known whether he had already prepared for a rainy day at that time. Bai Haocheng is just a military general. He is not good at these strategies. Listen to Yi Chenjing There is only one feeling...
"I didn't expect you to be such a meticulous person."
Yi Chenjing was suddenly stunned. He was surprised when he realized that he had talked a lot. Unknowingly, he had changed from an indifferent person to such a considerate person. Probably because Bai Qige had integrated into his life. . He never wanted her to do anything wrong in the slightest. Every move she made, he would remember it deeply in his heart.
These days have finally come to an end.
"The carriage is just outside the palace gate. This is enough incense for ten days. Before arriving in Zhao Kingdom, we must prevent her from cheating and running back."
Bai Haocheng nodded. He raised his breath and clenched his sword. He turned around and was about to join an escape.
"Wait..." Seeing Bai Haocheng step out of the cell door, Yi Chenjing couldn't help but call her out no matter how much she suppressed herself. There was a trace of sadness in her eyes. "Let me... take another look at her."
Time is running out. A moment's delay will increase the risk. However, Bai Haocheng cannot refuse Yi Chenjing's request. Just look at his lowered eyebrows and his lonely expression. Then think about Bai Qige's deep yearning when she is not around. That heartbreaking feeling. , I feel the pain of cutting out my life.
Bai Haocheng roughly expected the consequences of him escaping with Bai Qige. He also understood deeply that it would be extremely difficult for Yi Chenjing and Bai Qige to reunite again. Perhaps this was really their last moment together in this life.
He let go and handed Bai Qige back to Yi Chenjing's arms. Seeing Yi Chenjing hugging her tightly with a painful and lonely expression, she couldn't bear to let go. The sour feeling in her heart was no less than when she said goodbye to Bai Qige. After waiting for a while, there was another emergency call from outside. There was a sharp knocking sound. Bai Haocheng sighed heavily. He was determined to snatch Bai Qige back: "Prince, take care."
"General Bai." Yi Chenjing stood on the death row. He forced himself to stop and bowed deeply to Bai Haocheng, who was anxious to leave. "Protect her for me. But don't hurt her. You are the person she has always respected the most."
The fast pace paused for a moment, and then resumed running. Bai Haocheng did not make a sound. He nodded heavily and did not know if Yi Chenjing could see it or not. Only a quiet smile appeared in the dim corridor.
How could he not understand the meaning behind those words? Yi Chenjing was telling him that he was just Bai Qige's second brother. That's all. Family love. The latter was something he could never give to Bai Qige. It would only hurt her deeply. .
The guards on duty who had been arranged early in the morning outside the cell saw Bai Haocheng coming out with someone on his back. They drew their swords and gestured twice symbolically. Then, before the people who were waiting in the dark for the opportunity to rob the prisoner showed up, they all pretended to be miserable. He screamed twice and flopped down on the ground. Bai Haocheng nodded slightly to express his gratitude. Then he carried Bai Qige on his back to join his men and Yu Che. A group of men and women from foreign countries rushed to the palace gate. They injured several guards and fled. .
It was late at night. There was sporadic light rain in the sky. The post road to Zhaoguo was dark and long. No one could predict whether what awaited them would be good or bad, good or bad.
Under the eaves of the long street, there is no light.
"In the end, I still can't do anything to help..." Ning Xizui held up a lantern and looked far away at the speeding carriage. A faint smile appeared on her lips.
"What's the use of thinking too much about things beyond your abilities." Behind him, Su Buqi remained expressionless. "My foster father is coming to the imperial capital soon. Don't you want to think about how to bear his old man's anger?"
"...I'm already in a bad mood. You still insist on bringing up terrible things."
"You asked for it."
Ning Xizui rubbed the tip of her nose and turned back slightly surprised: "Why are you in a worse mood than me? Is it because Jinyan is still that delicate and weak lady?"
Su Buqi glanced lightly and said nothing for a long time.
Outsiders thought that Su Yan was a gentle and timid woman. Only he could see her strength and persistence. That kind of light in his eyes was no less than that of Bai Qige, who was held up by many people. He was inevitably fascinated by it. After all, women are Those who need to be protected are just like Bai Qige, Yi Chenjing and Ning Xizui. Su Buqi has no doubt that he should protect Su Yan. It is as if God has already arranged for him to spend a short time with her during the Northern Expedition. Just for him A heart that cannot bear the slightest ripple will learn to be emotional.
"She and a concubine knelt in front of the queen's door for a long time. Even when they fainted and were sent back to the East Palace, the queen didn't respond. It seems that there is really no other way to save your confidante except Tianjie Prison." Maybe it's the language skills. Not enough. Or maybe it was because Ning Xizui's skin was so deep that it couldn't be penetrated. Su Buqi finally managed to hold back a joke, but Ning Xizui accepted it as normal. After waiting for a while, Ning Xizui didn't retort. Su Buqi was helpless. Buqi was a little depressed. He had no choice but to bring up the topic that Ning Xizui wanted to hear: "I have decided to take her out of the palace. Regardless of whether my adoptive father agrees or not, this decision will not change again."
Ning Xizui shrugged. He was not surprised by Su Buqi's decision: "I have long advised you to make it clear with your adoptive father. You have to drag it out until now. If possible, let Jinyan leave. If this continues, he will only have A dead end."
"Jinyan is different from me. He wants revenge now. He will not let it go until Yi Chenxuan is dead. I have always regretted it. I regret that year..."
"I have been doing business all over Zhongzhou for so many years. Have you ever heard of anyone selling regret medicine?" He casually put the lantern into Su Buqi's hand. Darkness shrouded his feet and a faint light appeared. Ning Xizui patted Su Buqi on the shoulder. His expression was rare. Serious: "Don't give up. Jin Yan is not hopeless yet. No matter what the poison he is poisoned or his views on people and things. You are his brother and the person who should understand his temperament best. I I know that both you and your adoptive father are repelled or even disgusted by his ideas. But have you ever thought about how Jinyan survived these years? Without that person, he would not still have that kind of kindness now. So. Ah, let him do what he wants to do. Even if he doesn't escape death, at least he can die in peace."
The rain outside the eaves became heavier and heavier. Su Buqi was absent-minded for a long time. His hand trembled slightly when a sudden thunder sounded. The lantern fell to the ground with a pop. The last bit of light in the darkness was quietly extinguished.
Among them, entangled in the flames of power, who has a bright future?
