daughter in power

Chapter 238
Xia Xi shook her head and said regretfully, "She escaped."

Jiang Qiqi is just a small and weak woman, how could she escape from under his nose?
She refused to believe it, and asked again and again, and finally found out about the situation from the young monk.

It turned out that Jiang Qiqi saw Xia Xi's indifferent demeanor and ignored her.

I don't know why he went crazy, but he rushed up and hugged Xia Xi, wanting to do something indecent.

If she really kissed her, I'm afraid that Xia Xi will die at the end of the day.

Therefore, he immediately avoided Jiang Qiqi.

It was also her luck that she had a familiar face on her face, which prevented him from hitting her hard.

In such a short time, the man jumped over the wall and escaped.

Originally, she didn't bring any guards with her, and because she was almost kissed by Jiang Qiqi, Xia Xi really didn't want to chase her.

Just in time, it was Qiqi who fell to the ground when she heard a "dong" sound outside.

After listening calmly, Qi Qi always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't explain it. After thinking for a while, she said, "How does she know we've arrived at Jiaohua Temple?"

The itinerary of the two of them today is only known to people in the palace.

The Royal Forest Army also knows.

The Imperial Forest Army who came with them knew that there was no one in the temple.

The husband and wife looked at each other, and said in unison, "Check."

Of course it is necessary to check.

But nothing was found.

None of the Yulin soldiers knew Jiang Qiqi, nor did they admit that they leaked the news last night.

In fact, Xia Xi didn't mention the news of coming to Jiaohua Temple until today when he left the palace.

Jiang Qiqi was not caught, nor was the person who leaked the information to her.

On the contrary, Qiqi fainted for a while, and felt that her body was not as good as before.

Xia Xi did not continue to stay in Jiaohua Temple, but led Qi Qi back to the palace.

Back to the palace, the carriage arrived at the gate of the palace, but something happened.

Jiang Maoyou and Mrs. Jiang are kneeling at the gate of the palace.

The current status of the husband and wife is really not light, they are the most famous people in Liuhuo City.

Kneeling here suddenly, but why?
Because Qiqi was ill, he was afraid that the Jiang family would make her angry, so he just pretended to be nonchalant and stood in front of the Jiang couple.

Qiqi fell into a light sleep in the carriage without knowing it.

Jiang Maoyou said: "Your Majesty, I really have some unavoidable difficulties kneeling here. Please forgive me."

What are your reasons?
Xia Xi's eyebrows were cold: "Speak."

Mrs. Jiang spoke intermittently: "Qiqi is back, Your Majesty... She is your main concubine, who in the world doesn't know? She is back, why don't you bring her into the palace?"

Madam Jiang's voice was old, with some unspeakable distress.

Xia Xi sneered: "Master Jiang almost got into a fight with me because of this matter. Why... have you forgotten that Qi'er married me as Lingmei at the beginning. Now, her identity has been clarified. Qiqi really doesn’t matter.”

What should be clarified has already been clarified, and what should be shattered has already been shattered.

Today, is it interesting to kneel here again?

He felt very boring.

From the corner of his eye, he glanced at the carriage that Qiqi was riding in, and saw that the curtains were lowered and the carriage was quiet.

It must have not been able to see the situation at the gate of the palace.

His complexion changed slightly, and he scolded: "Let's all step back. I don't want to entangle these trivial things anymore."

After finishing speaking, he didn't even get on the carriage.

Go straight to the palace.

The carriage escorted her, blocking everything outside.

She fell asleep in a daze, and slowly returned to Yangxi Palace.

However, earth-shaking changes have taken place in the court.

Everyone knows the person who pretended to fall off the cliff in order to escape Xiu Nu.

It's like going home.

Moreover, the Jiang family also pointed out that Xia Xi personally wrote Jiang Qiqi's name in the Taimiao.

Moreover, everyone knows what it was like when he married Jiang Qiqi when he was the king of Xiaoyang.

Qiqi didn't know about such a thing, even though there were already rumors outside.

But she is still hiding in the greenhouse of Yangxi Palace.

Binger wrote again.

Only then did she know that the child had gone to Xiaoyang City.

The city where he was born.

Memories flooded out, making her hand holding the letter tremble slightly.

It took a long time before he raised his head from the unspeakable surprise.

She immediately ordered people to meet Bing'er in Xiaoyang City, for fear that Bing'er might go wrong again.

Not long after, Binger wrote again.

The letter said some miscellaneous things.

He also talked about encountering a snow-white beast in the long yellow sand, but unfortunately he couldn't see the appearance of the beast clearly, so he missed it.

The implication is that he is not afraid of the snow-white beast, only a lot of curiosity.

Dongfang Xiu and others couldn't explain it.

After Qiqi finished reading the letter, a strange feeling suddenly flashed in her heart.

He hurriedly sent someone to ask Xia Xi about Lie Feng's movements.

However, Xia Xi didn't know all about it.

Back then in Qiansha City, we had already parted ways.

After that, in order to coax Xia Ze to believe in ghosts and gods.

Even Ling'er went astray.The hunting wind probably disappeared early.

Bing'er is still young, Qi Qi dare not tell him to catch the white beast.

I only told him to avoid the white beast and not to conflict.

Binger complied.

Because she was worried about her health, she decided to set off and return to Flowing Fire City.

The study tour that lasted for several months is coming to an end.

She had a lot of emotion and told Gong'e to prepare some things to welcome Bing'er well.

In this way, after another few months, Bing'er finally came back from outside.

When we arrived in Liuhuo City, we first went to see Bing'er, and then Xia Xi.

He grew taller, and he grew darker.

In just half a year, it seemed like he had matured by three or four years.

Although he is only 11 years old, he has a somewhat handsome appearance.

Qi Qi was surprised by his change, relieved and warm, but secretly sad.

The child seems to have grown up.

Bing'er didn't have such thoughts as hers, but was only worried about her body, seeing that she was getting thinner than before leaving, she refused to go on a study tour no matter what.

Only willing to stay in Flowing Fire City.

Courtiers dare not criticize him.

Xia Xi doted on him more and more, asked about everything about leaving the palace in detail, and finally rewarded the scholar and Dongfang Xiu, and praised Binger.

I hope he will not be proud and continue to work hard.

Judging from the situation, it is planned to let him go on a study tour again.

He was worried about Qiqi, standing on the gold brick of the imperial study, his face was full of displeasure: "The mother's health is getting worse day by day, if Erchen leaves one day... Erchen..."

He couldn't go on, but the meaning between the words was obvious.

Xia Xi's eyes flickered, and she said sadly: "Your mother's illness is not a serious illness, but she will not be able to take care of her body. Apart from taking good care of her, worrying is useless."

Bing'er didn't say anything more, and stepped back respectfully.

He still accompanied Qi Qi every day, telling her interesting stories and thrilling stories on the study tour.

It made her frown for a while, draw her lips for a while, and was shocked.

The mother and son have a good relationship, and they can't finish talking for a day and a night.

Bing'er said: "The adoptive father is still guarding outside, may I send him in to talk, he is very worried about you all the way."

He looked very serious.

It was the first time Qi Qi saw such an expression on his face.

Confused for a while.

There was no way to say it if I wanted to refuse, so I just nodded in the end.

Dongfang Xiu walked in.

After not seeing him for more than half a year, she realized that he was much older.

When two people stand together, it is really impossible to tell who is older.

Although she is sick, she still maintains a fair and beautiful complexion, delicate and lovely.

But he was different, his handsome face was covered with wind and frost.

The temples are already graying.

Her eyes were sore, she always felt uneasy in her heart, and hurriedly asked: "Let's go, but Bing'er is too much trouble for you?"

He shook his head and smiled gently: "No trouble, Bing'er is obedient and sensible, she has seen a lot, very good, very good."

She opened her mouth, wanting to ask him why he looks older than before since he is sensible and obedient.

But still can't ask.

She was ill and hadn't seen her for more than half a year. He was definitely worried.

Sometimes, she wanted to avoid his emotions, no matter how she refused, he always stood at a distance, helping her and taking care of her children.

His relationship with Bing'er is even better than Xia Xi's.

She shook her head and ordered Gong'e to bring him some fresh fruit.

He declined.

After a long time, he took out a jade pendant from his bosom, handed it to her, and said gently: "Do you still remember this?"

The jade pendant is precious, and the color is bright green and warm. It was the object she ordered the scholar to give to Dongfang Xiu.

She always thought that this jade pendant was with Bing'er, but it turned out that it had been kept by him all along.

Reaching out to take the jade pendant, she hesitated to look at it, puzzled.

Dongfang Xiu's eyes flickered, but she didn't make a sound.

She didn't know why, but she was suddenly blessed, turned her head to Bing'er and said: "Bing'er, go and get the Pu'er tea that was paid a few days ago, and take a pot back for your adoptive father."

Bing'er heard the words, nodded with a smile, and hurried away.

When Bing'er left, the other maids naturally and sensiblely avoided.

In such a huge palace, only Qiqi and Dongfang Xiu were left.

Qiqi looked at the other side, and said solemnly: "Is there anything wrong?"

Dongfang Xiu nodded, sighed, and then raised her eyes: "This time I went to Xiaoyang City, the emperor seems to have ordered Binger to look for his sister Xia Xue, so Binger agreed to leave the palace."

She was surprised, she rarely mentioned Xia Xue's matter in front of Xia Xi.

I always feel that I am incapable of protecting the child, and the child is dead, and if I mention it again, I am afraid it will break Xia Xi's heart.

Unexpectedly, Xia Xi chose this option to persuade Binger who refused to study abroad.

She was speechless.

Dongfang Xiu didn't speak either.

For a long time, the two looked at each other, but neither showed any expression.

Dongfang Xiudao: "However, when I went to Xiaoyang City this time, I really saw the white beast. Bing'er has already mentioned it to you."

Indeed it was mentioned.

The white beast is fierce, and she is afraid that the white beast will hurt Binger, so she refuses to be tracked down by Binger.

Dongfang Xiu shook her head: "This jade pendant was dropped when the white beast came to attack Bing'er."

Qiqi was shocked.

Standing up in surprise, he knocked down the teacup in front of him.

The tea spilled down and smoked, flowing up the hem of her skirt.

After being scalded like this, I am afraid that it will be difficult to recover in the near future.

Dongfang Xiu suddenly reached out and caught all the tea that was poured over.

The results are obvious.

Qiqi was unharmed, but Dongfang Xiu's palms were scalded, peeling and blistering.

He stood up, and there was a flash of pain on his face, and he regained his tranquility in a moment.

She jumped up in shock, hurriedly found the medicine box, and wanted to bandage and apply medicine to him.

He refused.

He took a step back and smiled slightly: "If the emperor finds out, you will be troubled."

He pointed to the jade pendant in her hand: "It was indeed dropped by the white beast. Moreover, the posture and method of the white beast attacking people seem to have been deliberately trained, and it is by no means as simple as a soulless beast."

In other words, the white beast might be someone's pet against enemies.

Rather than a simple beast.

How can you not understand such simple and straightforward words?

She almost cried out.

But he bit his lip and refused to speak.

There is only one pair of jade pendants.

One was given to Binger and the other to Xueer.

now……

Dongfangxiu hung one hand, and took out another piece of jade pendant from her bosom: "Look, this is the one you gave to Bing'er."

The jade pendant had been polished long ago, and the tassels on the jade pendant were already dilapidated, but the owner seemed to cherish it very much and kept it carefully.

The tassels were washed white, and the jade pendant was also an old jade. The only explanation was that Dongfang Xiu kept this jade pendant with her.

As if she had glimpsed something, Qi Qi blushed.

Dongfang Xiu said gently: "I will continue to pay attention to this matter, but don't tell Bing'er. I'm afraid he won't be able to bear it in his heart."

If he knew that his sister was still suffering in the desert, he might not even want to be the crown prince, and would definitely rush to Xiaoyang City immediately, frantically looking for her.

But in fact, this kind of search really shouldn't be rushed.

Qi Qi nodded, feeling very anxious, she didn't know whether to be happy or sad, and hurriedly said: "I know."
