Concubine Chongxi: Binding the Medicine Jar to the Master

Chapter 201

This sonorous shout seemed to freeze the air, pressing heavily on everyone's heart.

Baili Jiuge was panting violently because of his emotional agitation, and looked directly into Yin Liehuo's eyes with bright eyes, as if he wanted to let his firm eyes penetrate Yin Liehuo's heart and change her mind.

Yes, I can't let those innocent people be implicated, not only for those lives, but also I don't want my friend to become a tyrant who brutally kills and has blood on his hands.

She doesn't want to!
The hem of the skirt was raised like a tongue of bright red flames in the wind.

"Agni, I beg you to take back such a cruel order!" Without the slightest hesitation, Baili Jiuge knelt on the ground.

Seeing her actions like this, Yin Lie's expression changed, and Mo Li rushed to help Baili Jiuge up, but she firmly pushed him away.

She has always knelt down and knelt down to her master, and no one else would kneel, but today, why not kneel?I am determined to persuade Lie Huo to take it back, even if I force it!

"Jiu Ge..." Yin Liehuo frowned, as rounds of sadness rose and fell in his chest.

She lowered her body, but under Baili Jiuge's firm gaze, she became more and more sad and helpless. She looked up to the sky and smiled wryly, and the frustration in her eyes was still so clear under the curled eyelashes. .

"Prime Minister Jin..."

Jin Zhi regained consciousness and quickly saluted, "Your Majesty, I'm here."

"Prime Minister Jin... the servants of the three imperial sisters' house, give some money and dismiss them... Their children and relatives, spare their lives and drive them out of Heluo."

"Fire!" Baili Jiuge's face finally dissipated.

Jin Zhi also breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Obey."

The stone hanging in Baili Jiuge's heart fell to the ground, and without waiting for anyone to help her, she quickly got up from the ground, clapped her hands, and laughed loudly: "Agni, you finally didn't let me down!" Habitual Those who want to hold Yin Liehuo's hands.

But Yin Liehuo backed away, and Baili Jiuge was a little puzzled by such avoidance.

She was stunned, looking at the deep sadness in Yin Liehuo's eyes, her heart throbbed involuntarily, it was like a needle prick.

"Agni..." Did he hurt her?
Why does Agni look so tired, so sad, even the heavy makeup can't hide the emptiness on his face...

At this moment, Yin Liehuo is like a piece of thin paper, which can be broken by blowing a bullet.

She suddenly grabbed Guan Cheng's sleeve, and said almost beggingly, "Send me back to the palace, Guan Cheng, take me back to the palace, and rest with me for a while... I'm so tired, I don't want to stand on this high platform to be accepted by others again." Worship and admiration..."

This voice was full of pleading, like a lonely person who was panting after passing through a storm, and the sorrows of three lives and three generations were piled up in her eyes, who could bear to look straight at her earnest gaze?
Guan Cheng responded heavily, and said: "Your hard work, Prime Minister Jin, please deal with the aftermath of the matter here." After leaving a message, he supported Yin Liehuo, followed by several maids, walked down the high platform, and walked towards the palace garden. The direction is gone.

Yin Liehuo walked very slowly, and her gorgeously dressed back caught the attention of Wan Min who was eagerly searching for her, but she was trembling and staggering, trying to escape this lonely road from which she could never escape...

"Fire..."

Looking at the distant figure, Baili Jiuge's heartstrings beat dryly.What happened to Agni, did you hurt Agni?

She didn't know, she just felt as if she could empathize with her, and couldn't help covering her sore heart.

Baili Jiuge laughed: "Mo Li, did I say something wrong?"

He frowned slightly, and hugged Baili Jiuge's thin body distressedly, how could he not know her mood in his heart.Consolation: "For a new emperor, it's perfectly normal to kill dissidents and cut grass and roots. Keep those people, they will not be grateful to the fire girl, they will only hold hatred, and it is very likely that they will cause trouble again in the future."

Baili Jiuge's nose was sour, and he murmured: "Mo Li, do you also think I shouldn't stop the fire?"

"No..." He shook his head, stroked her little hand, and sighed slowly: "If I were Liehuo girl, I would choose to be lenient just like you. I would rather kill thousands of people by mistake for my own safety. .”

Such words undoubtedly gave Baili Jiuge a sore heart to rely on. She pressed against Mo Li's chest, feeling the gentleness like water wrapping her around her, and slowly closed her eyes, letting everything around her turn into a cloudless breeze. Clear, ignore it.

He was lifted off the ground by Mo Li, who also obediently leaned against his chest.Mo Li bid farewell to Jin Zhi with his eyes, then glanced at Yin Haochen, and left slowly with Baili Jiuge in his arms.

Walking towards the side palace gate, he looked up at the sky, only to see that the willow trees behind the tall palace building had sprouted, the light green was fragile, but it was full of vitality.There are alternations in the four seasons, and all things grow and prosper.Perhaps, after winter is over, they can steal a little leisure time.

Staring at the person in his arms, Mo Li smiled softly and distressedly.

She is also a tired person...

The fire girl is exhausted by the hatred of the country and the family, but her exhaustion is caused by him.

——His body bones, his yin and yang spells.

In this way, gradually, he walked away.The towering palace walls, the exquisite turrets, and the hustle and bustle of the common people all seem to fade away with the severe winter...

Baili Jiuge still vaguely remembered that after that day, she rested in the post palace for three full days before regaining her previous mental state.Maybe it's because my health has deteriorated, or maybe it's because I've been so tense lately that I haven't had a moment to breathe. Now that I finally regained my energy, I want to visit Yin Liehuo, so I heard from Yuying that the prince went to the palace today. , as an envoy of the Great Zhou to meet Heluo Empress Luo Xiangsi, in order to achieve the alliance between the Great Zhou and Heluo.

Although Baili Jiuge is very clear that Li Huo has the same enemy as Mo Li, Yin Haoyi, the reason Li Huo won He Luo is because the big business is still strong, and the courtiers of He Luo should be against Li Huo and Mo Li Let's form an alliance.

I don't know how Mo Li and Lie Huo are going to convince those courtiers...

Feeling a little worried, in order to relax, Baili Jiuge took Mikage to fish by the lake. It took a long time to catch a thin fish, and she gave Yukage to cook the soup by himself.

I didn't want Mo Li to come back quite early today, but after he came back, he said that he wanted to write a letter to his friend Wen Qiuhang, so he went to the lake center building first.

Baili Jiuge continued to fish, and when he saw Yufeng passing by, he grabbed Yufeng and asked him what was going on in the court today, which surprised Baili Jiuge.

I heard from Yufeng that today in the court hall, the courtiers strongly objected to Miss Lie Huo being an open enemy of the state of Shang. When the dispute was endless, the special envoy sent by Emperor Jingcheng of Liang Guo arrived at the palace and handed the letter of Emperor Jing Cheng to Miss Lie Huo for review. Miss Raging Fire asked Jin Cheng to read to everyone.

"What was written in the letter?" Baili Jiuge asked, but he almost understood in his heart that it was probably because Mo Li had greeted Emperor Jing Cheng in advance, and asked Jing Cheng, a powerful foreign aid, to help him.

Yu Feng replied: "Emperor Jing Cheng and He Luo made it clear that in the past, Empress Yue was greatly favored by His Royal Highness, therefore, Liang Guoding and Zhou Guo shared honor and disgrace."

it is as expected!
Sharing weal and woe is a word that cannot be underestimated!

Baili Jiuge was speechless, I just felt that I could guess with my toes, all the courtiers of Heluo must have changed their faces, and then because Liang Guo was much stronger than the big merchants, they turned to support the alliance between Lie Huo and Mo Li.

He couldn't help but smiled and said: "This guy Mo Li, he has calculated all the first three steps and the last three steps, so it's hard to guard against. But it happens that we are going to Liang Kingdom next, so I must thank Emperor Jing Cheng very much. "

But going to Liang Country also means saying goodbye to Li Huo.Baili Jiuge has always been free and easy, and doesn't care about staying or parting, but because he understands Yin Liehuo's temperament, he feels somewhat sorry for Yin Liehuo in his heart.

Going to say goodbye now, Lie Huo wants to see Mo Li again, but I really don't know when it will be...

The days of parting, after all, can't resist the time flowing like passing water.

That day has finally come.

It was a warm spring day with light mist. Baili Jiuge remembered it clearly. On that day, there happened to be a group of swallows returning to the south. Mud, wet with falling flowers.

It was February 26 of the year of Xin Chou.

Outside the city of Luoyi, there are ten miles of peach blossoms, stretching and shining.

The luxuriant grass covers the deserted yellow sand of the ancient road in winter, and walking east along the post road is Liang Guo.

The long stretches of peach groves have come to an end after all, just like the spring will go and the flowers will wither, there is no feast that will never end in this world.

A lonely pavilion stands here, and clumps of weeds have grown on the top of the pavilion.Mo Li and Baili Jiuge stood in front of the pavilion, looking at the escort team that Yin Liehuo dispatched to them, at the dozen or so important officials who came to see them off, at Guan Cheng, and smiled at Yin Liehuo at the same time.

"Fire girl, take care."

Mo Li's smile is still so gentle, and the starry eyes are full of blessings from the heart.In his heart, he has always regarded her as his younger sister whom he has never met, and he wishes her to live in peace forever.

Yin Liehuo also smiled, this smile was full of sadness and touch, reluctance and blessing, sad and beautiful, "You too, cherish it..."

There was a slight choking sound at the end of the voice, Yin Liehuo turned his head, covered half of his face with his sleeve, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and looked at the important officials behind him from the corner of his eye.

She looked back and whispered: "We can meet again..."

Mo Li smiled resolutely: "Yes."

"Yes, it will definitely be possible..." She also knew under what circumstances the two of them would meet next time.

In the past few years, his care, thoughtfulness, and careful teaching for her have penetrated into her bones like a short-lived fragrance, and the lingering fragrance will never be erased in a lifetime.It was enough for her to miss him and know that he was still safe somewhere.

Yin Liehuo smiled beautifully, said a thousand words, full of lovesickness, needless to say anything.

She knew that Mo Li, Jiu Ge, and Guan Cheng... Everyone, it was tacit understanding.

They are gone.

The bumpy carriage slowly recedes and melts in the mist, where the ruts pass, the wind blows, a tree of peach blossoms flutters, and the chaotic red dyes the sky and the earth brightly and spreads a dusty cloud.

Falling flowers all over the ground...

lovesick...

Yin Liehuo didn't turn his head until he could no longer see the person who had gone away. At this moment, all the softness on his face turned into coldness.

"President Jin, Guan Cheng, come here." She smiled coldly, and led the two of them to the pavilion, avoiding the rest of the courtiers.

Slowly seated, she murmured coldly: "After all, I have only returned to Heluo not long ago, and my foundation is not stable. I need the support of important ministers, and I have to restrain them. Therefore, I have to trouble Prime Minister Jin for the next thing." .”

"But at His Majesty's command."

"Hmm..." She smiled coldly: "The matter of setting up the harem is left to Prime Minister Jin. Those men from ministers' families who are suitable, as long as they are conducive to stabilizing my throne, let's take them in together... Prime Minister Jin, I believe you know it well..."

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty." Jin Zhi bowed her eyebrows.

"Okay, go down, I have something to say to Guan Cheng." She waved Jin Zhi back.

Under the pavilion where there were only two people left, some undercurrents were surging.But Yin Liehuo's expression became natural, becoming softer and kinder again.

"I'm not feeling well, hearing the news that I'm going to take the harem..."

Guan Cheng was suffocated, and nodded in admission.

Peach blossoms were flying like rain, brushing Yin Liehuo's soft and beautiful face. She raised her hand to catch a petal of peach blossoms, and murmured deeply: "They are just for display. Touched by the second man, so..." Looking at Guan Cheng, "they will enter the palace in the future, and they will all be handed over to you. If you want to be a widow, you can be a widow. If you don't want to, let them hang out with the palace servants. Just be obedient Keep it if you don't have any disagreements, and kill those who don't listen to me before reporting to me, and you must do it without leaving any traces."

Guan Cheng narrowed his eyes, "Does Your Majesty trust me so much?"

"Well, Xin..." she murmured: "I will never forget that you once said the three words 'falling in love with her' in front of your mother. There is one thing that Jiuge and I are the same, that is, it is good for us People, we will all treat it well...Moreover, your mother's family is single, and it is impossible for you to become the second Mrs. Chen Huang..."

Guan Cheng smiled helplessly: "Her Majesty the Empress is always on guard."

"Just because Chen Huangfu has learned from the past, I have to guard against my relatives...and..." She smiled softly: "From now on, call me Lie Huo."

Guan Cheng was taken aback.

Slowly suppressing his smile, Yin Liehuo stood up, supported the pavilion pillars and looked into the distance.But this time, she didn't look at Liang Guo in the east, but looked to the south, and her eyes suddenly sank into hell, it was as cold as an Asura.

The south, the direction of the Shang Kingdom, the faint king who killed her adoptive father and mother...

She said harshly: "Yin Haoyi, I made an oath in front of my father's body, within three years, I will be without you..." She suddenly laughed wildly: "The next time we meet, it will be me and Mo Li who will destroy your Shang Kingdom Time! Faint Lord, wipe my neck clean and wait!"

At this moment, on the long post road, a carriage was driving towards the east under the cover of the guards.

Outside the car there is a fertile field, a group of young children playing in the field, laughing and singing: "The peach blossoms are shining brightly, and the son returns home, suitable for his family..."

A small hand raised the curtains of the carriages and horses, and that small hand spread out gently, a little mischievously took a peach blossom blown by the wind, then pinched another, retracted the hand and returned to the carriage to play with.

Baili Jiuge plucked the peach blossoms in his palm with a smile, saw the winding mountain road in the distance through the gauze curtain, and casually asked Mo Li, "How long will it take us to get to Shengjing?"

"A dozen days, if it doesn't rain."

"It's okay if it rains." He replied casually.Anyway, early spring is also full of drizzle, so the mountain road is not particularly muddy, is it?

If you think about it, you don't take it to heart.

On the day when they first entered the mountain road, what Jiaobaili Jiuge didn't expect was that they ran into Yin Haochen and Wu Niannian.The two of them were just about to return to the Kingdom of Shang. Because the road to the south was impassable due to landslides, they headed east first. Therefore, they had a way with Baili Jiuge and Mo Li.

But what bothered Baili Jiuge was that the people who escorted Yin Haochen and Wu Niannian were actually more than [-] Yulin soldiers from Shang Kingdom.

As soon as she saw the familiar lines on Yu Linjun's waist, Baili Jiuge dropped the peach blossoms in her palm in shock. She hurriedly squeezed Mo Li to the side of the carriage, using her body to block him, for fear that he would Was discovered by those Habayashi soldiers.

But at the side, Yin Haochen's deep voice came from the familiar Flying Eagle carriage: "Jiu Ge, you...don't be nervous. Brother Huang sent them to escort this king back to Dashang, and they won't cause trouble."

Is that right?Baili Jiuge's heartstrings were still tense.

After a while, Yin Haochen's voice sounded again: "Don't worry, I won't let them embarrass Prince Zhou."

This tone sounds too dull, as if being squeezed out of the teeth by a breath of depression, and it also tastes cruel to the ears.Only then did Baili Jiuge soften his posture, and smiled blushingly: "Well, I reacted too violently."

Mo Li didn't say a word, but gently held Baili Jiuge on his chest, his sharp gaze seemed to be able to penetrate layers of gauze curtains, and he could see everything in Yin Haochen's eyes.

After a long time, he said indifferently: "Prince Chen, if Emperor Zhaoyi didn't believe in you, why would he send the Yulin Army to invite you back to the country?"

Yin Haochen's heart was pierced by an arrow, and his body shook.

Baili Jiuge was surprised: "Mo Li, what did you say?"

He sighed: "I'm just telling the truth, and I hope that after King Chen returns to the capital, he will not offend Emperor Zhaoyi again. This can be regarded as advice to King Chen in terms of his feelings for Jiuge. Bar."

"Mo Li..." Baili Jiuge raised his hand to caress his chest, feeling uncomfortable, how could he not know that Yin Haochen and his elder brother had nothing against each other, but because of her relationship, they cared about each other.

With a helpless smile, Baili Jiuge looked into the distance, the sky was getting gray and there were clusters of dark clouds, it seemed that it was really going to rain...

Then, Baili Jiuge soon found that his initial thoughts were too optimistic. He thought that the rain in spring would be thin and continuous, but unexpectedly, as soon as they entered the mountains, it rained non-stop, although it was not pouring. , but it lasted for four or five days without interruption.This made the mountain road extremely muddy, and the speed of the carriages and horses was also hindered.

But on the night of the sixth day, a terrible disaster came without warning.

Originally, at night, the team of two carriages and guards were slowly moving on the muddy mountain road, looking for a place to rest.Because of boredom, Baili Jiuge felt that he was getting more and more lethargic. As soon as he leaned on Mo Li's shoulder and closed his eyes, he felt a shaking from weak to strong.

Before I had time to check the abnormality, the surrounding area seemed to be shaking, and the rumbling noise came from nowhere. It felt as if the entire mountain was about to explode.

Then, someone outside the car shouted in horror.

"Run away, mudslide! It's a mudslide!"
