Chapter 95
Concubine Xian got up and wanted to sit up, but the maids and mothers were pushed away by her, and she struggled to raise her body with her arms.

Gao Qiji didn't know how to serve others, seeing her struggling so much, he still helped her up clumsily, and put a pillow behind her.

Concubine Xian looked at Gao Qiji lovingly, at this moment, she had nothing but him in her eyes.

He could even see his shadow clearly in her amber pupils.

Gao Qiji lost his mind for a moment. He was sent to be raised by the empress since he was a child. She has always been indifferent to him.

He always thought that she was as cold and ruthless as her name, but he never thought that she had such a sensual and affectionate side.

Gao Qiji was a little moved, but he still remained silent and did not respond.

A trace of loss and pain flashed in Concubine Xian's eyes.

Continue to narrate, "Concubine Kang gave birth to the eldest prince and the seventh princess, which broke Linghu Zhinian's prophecy, and the emperor ordered someone to beat him up and drive him out of the palace.

But he didn't know how he learned that Ji Hong, who was in charge of recuperating Concubine Kang's body, had a secret method to make people have children, so he framed Ji Hong.

One is revenge, and the other is to get his secret method.

But after the Ji family tragedy, Linghu Zhinian disappeared..."

It turned out to be like this, as for the details, only Linghu Zhinian himself knew the details.

Gao Qiji nodded, "Mother, you may not know that Linghu Zhinian hid in the state of Chu, and used the same trick to gain the trust of the King of Chu.

The difference is that he helped the king of Chu get many sons, making the Chu royal family prosperous. "

Concubine Xian shook her head, "I really don't know about this, I think he obtained the secret method of giving birth as he wished."

Gao Qiji thought for a while, "Concubine Mu, I still don't understand one thing.

Since Linghu Zhinian had already taken revenge on Ji Hong and obtained the secret method of giving birth, why did he still collude with the third prince of Chu to attack Qi State 15 years later? "

Concubine Xian's face was flushed, she sighed, and said embarrassingly: "Speaking of it, it's also a bad relationship. Concubine Mother is really ashamed to say it."

"Alas..." There was another long sigh.

Concubine Xian seemed to have made up her mind, took a deep breath, and said: "Forget it, today, Concubine Mother can only tell you."

Concubine Xian had tears in her eyes, and she looked quietly into the distance, as if opening a box that had been locked for a long time, and the long-lasting memories flowed out slowly like running water.

"Linghu Zhinian developed a romantic relationship with me. He repeatedly offered to take me away, but I refused. I didn't expect him to go crazy because of love, and hate because of love.

He actually wanted to take you away, but after he failed, he dropped his harsh words and decided to live and die 15 years later.

At that time, I thought that he would not let it go, and that he would retaliate soon.

I know that my ability is limited and I can't protect you, so I reluctantly offered to send you to be raised by the empress.

But who would have thought that he was as true to his oath, since then, he has never appeared again.

These 15 years of calm made me mistakenly think that he could not be so persistent, maybe he had already married a wife and had children, and started a new life.

It wasn't until this year that disasters happened again and again that I realized that he really acted..."

After finishing speaking in one breath, Concubine Xian looked a little tired and panted heavily.

But she felt very relaxed, as if the secret of so many years had finally been uttered, and the boulder weighing on her body could be removed.

Gao Qiji remained silent. Although the mother and concubine did not go with him, she must have him in her heart, otherwise why would she have worked so hard to hide this secret until now.

It's just that Ji Hong's use of the secret method is against human nature, but his family members are so innocent, why should they die in vain?
At this moment, Gao Qiji didn't know whether to hate or pity his concubine mother. She had difficulties, and she was helpless...

After hesitating for a while, Gao Qiji slowly stretched out his hand, and patted her pale and thin hand lightly to express his comfort.

"The matter has come to this, what should come will come after all, the soldiers will come to cover up the water and earth, everything will be fine, mother and concubine, just relax.

With your appearance like this, I can't worry about doing things, so let's take care of you! "

Concubine Xian burst into tears instantly, this was the first time Gao Qiji had such an intimate gesture towards her.

Ever since he could remember, he never allowed her to touch him, let alone touch her actively!
It was also the first time that such caring and direct words were spoken, Concubine Xian wept with joy, and the joy drove away all the melancholy in recent days.

She held his hand back and nodded vigorously, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Gao Qixun bid farewell to Concubine Xian, and when he was walking under a sycamore tree in the courtyard of Jinle Palace, a leaf fell leisurely and happened to land on his shoulder.

He picked up the leaf and lifted it up, and looked up at the crown of the tree through the fallen leaves.

The branches are luxuriant and full of vitality.

And this leaf was also very green, but it was blown off for some reason, and it was alone, so lonely.

Holding the fallen leaves in his palm, Gao Qiji quickly walked to the Hall of Qinzheng.

After the palace man reported, Zhou Defu came out to lead him into the palace.

The emperor is drinking tea.

After Gao Qiji saluted him and greeted him, he immediately stated his intention, "Father, Linghu Zhinian is insidious and cunning, and he is proficient in sideways.

My son is afraid that the emperor's brother will be difficult to deal with, so I specially request to go to Liaocheng to help him, I hope you will play! "

The emperor took another sip of tea, and said unhurriedly: "I have other arrangements, you don't have to worry.

Your first task is to protect the capital, as long as the capital is not destroyed, the small border towns are nothing to worry about. "

Gao Qiji clasped his fists and said, "Father, my sons don't agree!

A small border town is the first barrier to guard the country's territory. If the border town is not protected, it will also affect the capital! "

The emperor put down his teacup heavily, and said in a cold voice, "How can I not understand this truth.

I have already arranged everything over there, so you don't need to worry about it.If you have other matters, report it quickly, if you have nothing to do, then step back! "

Gao Qiji was not afraid of the emperor's harsh words, and finally asked the question in his heart, "Father, I would like to know why you sent the old general Ji Hongchang to Liaocheng to support the place?"

"Have you gone to ask about Ji Hong's case?" The emperor gave him a suspicious look and asked in a deep voice.

"Yes." Gao Qiji didn't say much.

The emperor rubbed his temples, and said slowly: "You are so smart, you should have already guessed my intentions.

As you can imagine, I also suspect that Linghu Zhinian was misled by bandits to retaliate against Ji Hong, so he deliberately sent Ji Hongchang to confront him head-on.

While testing him, it can also stimulate Ji Hongchang's fighting spirit, killing two birds with one stone! "

"But father, General Ji Hongchang is approaching his sixtieth birthday, so it's wrong for you to send him there." Gao Qiji said dissatisfied.

The emperor waved his hand and raised his voice, "Hey...Ji Hongchang's sword is still young, so he is worthy of this post. Now that this matter is over, I will allow him to retire early."

Seeing that Gao Qiji was still about to argue, the emperor quickly changed the subject, "By the way, did Xia Guoxiu catch up?"

Gao Qiji secretly hooked the corners of his lips. In fact, he already knew that the emperor had secretly let Shen Boyu go, and the princess' five thousand elite soldiers had also gone to Liaocheng.

The battle between Qi and Chu may be a long battle, but it is not enough to break the city.

What's more, not far from Liao City, there is Yue Yang's father, the General Protector, guarding the country!

The most urgent task right now is to pursue Xia Guoxizuo quickly and rescue Li Siqi.

He was just a drunkard who didn't want to drink, the emperor had already rejected his previous request, this time, he would definitely give in a little bit.
