Concubine Chongxi: Binding the Medicine Jar to the Master

Chapter 21
Leaving quickly, ignoring servants and maidservants along the way, Baili Jiuge returned to his courtyard, raised his hand, and pushed open the door of his room.

As soon as the door was opened, for some reason, there was a musty smell, and the dust in the room was like flies flying in the air, scurrying in front of her.

She squeezed her eyes to see everything in the room clearly.

——Her room was turned into a warehouse!

Baili Jiuge was extremely speechless, thinking that if she hadn't had a marriage contract with Prince Chen, how could she have been taken to the mansion, but now that she has been divorced, and she disappeared for a few days, the Fengguo General's mansion will no longer be Reserve her place.I'm afraid that now father is full of thoughts to marry her off, and even let her marry Rong Hui as a concubine so that he doesn't even have to wait for the auspicious day.Oh, this Fengguo General's Mansion really despises her to such a state.

"Third sister?" Someone called her at this moment.

Looking at Baili Jiuge, I saw Baili Hongxiao wearing a water-green embroidered makeup dress, walking elegantly with lotus steps, graceful and graceful, like a tree of crabapples under the hazy sunset.

Baili Hongxiao said sympathetically, "Third sister, don't be sad, just sleep in my room tonight."

There was a warm current in Baili Jiuge's heart, at least there is an elder sister in this house who can think about her.She smiled sincerely: "I'm going to sleep with Eldest Sister, where will Eldest Sister sleep?"

"I'll just squeeze with my mother, it's fine." Baili Hongxiao comforted.

Baili Jiuge nodded, a hard-to-find intimacy made her feel closer to Baili Hongxiao, took Baili Hongxiao's hand, and said with a smile: "Then I will wrong the elder sister and the second mother." , let me have dinner with you tonight."

"Okay, then I'll make some home-cooked dishes." Baili Hongxiao also smiled happily, and the two sisters couldn't help but tighten each other's hands.

That night, according to the two sisters' discussion, Baili Jiuge went to the room of the second wife Banqin to have dinner.

The room is not big, and the decoration is not as gorgeous as Zhao Qian and Baili Ziru, but it has an unspeakable sense of warmth.

During the banquet, Banqin took good care of Baili Jiuge, pouring water and serving vegetables, all done just right.Baili Jiuge also followed Xiao Jing to play the banqin, and the two had a good chat.

However, she said that this banqin was not from a high family background, but she was Lan Xinhui's character. She had always been a part-timer and treated Zhao Qian with respect, so her position could be regarded as stable in the long run.If it is a pity, it is only the fact that Baili Hongxiao gave birth to a daughter.Fortunately, Baili Hongxiao is very filial, and Banqin thinks that her daughter is more knowledgeable than Baili Ziru.

Later, after Baili Jiuge had dinner and took a bath, Baili Hongxiao took her to her boudoir, settled down and then left.

Baili Jiuge stood in the middle of the room, looked around at the boudoir surrounded by water-red curtains, and couldn't help smiling meaningfully.

Baili Hongxiao likes water red, Baili Jiuge knows this, but Baili Hongxiao is cowardly by nature and likes to make peace with others, so she dare not use bright red and purple colors for fear of offending Baili Ziru's prostitute daughter .

Baili Jiuge couldn't help shrugging and humming softly.In comparison, this concubine herself is too much publicity.

Walking to the bed, yawned and stretched, and was about to lie down, but at this moment, he heard a "meow" from the window.

Baili Jiuge looked over, and saw a chubby cat slipping in between the two unclosed windows, with a pair of round green eyes.

This cat, which she had seen when she first came to Fengguo General's Mansion, was Baili Hongxiao's pet.

Baili Jiuge asked with a smile: "Little cat, your master went to share a bed with her mother today, are you planning to sleep with me?"

"Meow——" Huamao let out a light whining sound, which seemed to mean it.

Baili Jiuge beckoned to it, and the cat ran over happily, but instead of jumping into Baili Jiuge's arms, it lazily jumped onto the bed, wanting to sleep with it every night. Love's soft mattress, but—

"Meow!" With this cry, the sound was heart-piercing!The shock made Baili Jiuge's whole body tremble.

She took a big step back almost uncontrollably, looking at the cat that was suddenly covered in blood in astonishment!

It struggled desperately on the bed, screaming like a criminal being mollified.And on its body, countless sharp needle holes were bleeding at the same time, and those thick needles buried in the mattress poked the cat full of holes!Its painful cry tore at Baili Jiuge's ears, and a feeling of numbness and chills ran all over his body.

how so?

The mattress was actually full of needles!

who is it!Who did this again!Want to put her to death again?

Could it be Baili Ziru and Zhao Qian again?
On second thought, no.Baili Ziru and Zhao Qian went to the palace today to visit the second lady Baili Qingping, who was supposed to be a noble concubine. In this case, the two of them probably didn't know that they were back in the mansion.

Who did that?Could it be...is...

A figure was clearly in the back of his mind, but it was the last thing Baili Jiuge wanted to believe.

No, it's not red silk, how could it be red silk?
She didn't believe that Hung Hom would hate her so much that she wanted her to die!

However, this is a bed made of red silk. Who else can bury so many golden needles in the mattress besides red silk or banqin?
Under the red sleeves, the little hands were tightly packed into fists, trembling uncontrollably.

Baili Jiuge looked at the cat that had died in the pool of blood, with a single heart, up and down but couldn't find where it was.

Finally, the cat's last groan/groan disappeared, and it no longer lay motionless on the blood-stained mattress.

Baili Jiuge raised his hands, gently picked up its body and placed it on the table, then went back to the bed and took off the entire mattress, sleeping on the hard bed...

This night, I slept very restlessly, being swallowed up by sudden dreams, like being buried helplessly in the tide.

In that dream, there were many overlapping images, as if they traced back from the beginning of time, and seemed to come from thousands of rivers and mountains.

In her dream, she saw the frosty night stabbing her mother with a knife; she saw the master and senior brothers playing chess and laughing in the Phoenix Valley; she saw the kind faces of Baili Hongxiao and Banqin suddenly collapsed into ugly fragments... ...And in the end, the pictures were all overwhelmed by the epiphyllum swirling from all directions, and submerged into a scene of only gorgeous epiphyllum...

Suddenly, that short-lived flash in the pan, the whole world suddenly withered.

The incomparable loss flooded my heart overwhelmingly, once the gorgeous flowers withered and flourished, all the beauty was beyond recognition.

In the end, the epiphyllum disappeared, and the only thing standing there was the snow-white carriage painted with the epiphyllum, and the blurred figure behind the three-layer gauze curtain, which gradually broke, decayed, and faded with the withered epiphyllum. Disappeared in the depths of darkness...

Baili Jiuge opened his eyes, sat up slowly, looked at Zhongtian Mingyue in a daze, thinking about his chaotic dreams, and gradually, the always bright and open smile condensed bitterness on his lips at this moment.

This world is so deformed that even Hongxiang and Banqin can't believe it anymore, who else can she have hope for?
Epiphyllum, the man on the carriage... Maybe he is the only one who can distinguish between black and white!She remembered that he had seen the face covered with scars two years ago, but he didn't change his face and never judged people by their appearance.But now, looking at the entire court, among all the people she met, he was the only one who would not bully her as a concubine, would not humiliate her, and would not ridicule her for being downcast and divorced!
What about the rest?

But they are all so indiscriminate, superficial and vulgar!
Baili Jiuge couldn't help laughing embarrassingly.

What a pity, what a pity!Such a person who made her feel kind and respectful, but he was a medicine jar that could not live for three years, and was humiliated and imprisoned in Dashang, ridiculed by rumors.

This is really... what a pity!
He sighed involuntarily, regardless of whether he was a little sentimental tonight, Baili Jiuge only felt that he was still exhausted.

Under the moonlight, Huamao's bloody corpse was still glowing with blood, falling into Baili Jiuge's eyes, cool and ironic.

This Fengguo General's Mansion... Is this kind of homeless place her home?

well!That's all, that's all!What's the use of thinking again!Let's continue to sleep, get enough energy, and go back to Fangfei Museum to continue painting!
With a sneer, Baili Jiuge lay back on the couch again, tossed and turned for a while, and finally fell asleep...
