Concubine Chongxi: Binding the Medicine Jar to the Master

Chapter 76: Charming Soul (16)
She came back to her senses and gave a big smile: "I just didn't expect that it turned out to be a phoenix flower."

"……Phoenix Flower?"

"That's right, it's the phoenix flower on my head." It's a pity that no matter how beautiful and gorgeous this flower is, it loses its beauty and ease when it grows in the palace garden. It's a pity that it is so beautiful.

The moon-like eyes were slightly darkened, and the halo was half-curved. Mo Li was silent for a moment, and whispered in Baili Jiuge's ear: "It's better not to be brave."

Baili Jiuge was stunned, then stood on tiptoe, raised his head and whispered in Moli's ear, "I didn't try to be brave, they forced me to participate, so I'll just play around and let them humiliate themselves." No, who told them to humiliate you like that!"

"Jiu Ge, I'm fine, but I'm worried that you will bring disaster if you show your sharpness."

Baili Jiuge's heart warmed up, and his voice was a little sweeter. He whispered back: "Anyway, I've been the target of public criticism for a long time. Since I've been threatened and threatened everywhere, at least I can't lose my integrity!" Into Mo Li's ears: "I can't control that much anymore, now I just want to care about you, I can't be as tolerant as you, so, if they bully you, just get it back from me .”

In the depths of the moon-like eyes, at this moment, the storm passed by, and in an instant, the sea was calm, and the gently tumbling ripples brought boundless tenderness, like flower petals falling in Baili Jiuge's heart. The tenderness of this instant made her reveal A brighter smile than ever before.

"Mo Li, don't worry."

She squeezed his hand tightly.

"I will always stand by your side, and I will not let them get what they want!"

The sparkle in Mo Li's eyes rolled, and he just looked at her like this, without saying a word for a long time.It wasn't until she saw that Baili Ziru and the others were ready that she lowered her head slightly and whispered in Baili Jiuge's ear: "Be careful of yourself."

"Yeah." She smiled and walked towards Baili Ziru.

Because it is a public place, Baili Ziru showed a very knowledgeable appearance, and said with a smile: "Sister Jiuge, shall we come first? The finale task is left to you, you must let me Feast your eyes, everyone."

Humph, let everyone see a joke.Baili Jiuge smiled: "No problem, please!"

With the sound of ducks announced by the manager Ouchi, the game began.

The first one to appear was Yin Ruyi, who found four young and strong eunuchs to lift up the vermilion soft sedan chair. Sitting on the sedan chair, she desperately yelled at the eunuchs to run away, until finally the four of them were out of breath.

She handed over the three phoenix flowers, and the maid in charge of recording the time hurriedly wrote.

Then came the two official daughters, one borrowed Zhang Baizhang's long silk and was tied to a tree, she stepped on the silk and ran to pick flowers; Borrowed stilts, walked on stilts.In the end, although it took longer than Yin Ruyi, everyone was amused.

Then it was Baili Ziru's turn.

She smiled happily, holding the skirt with one hand like a bird, and greeted a young general not far away with the other.The young general seemed to be the one she had found just now, and went to lead her a good horse.

Everyone couldn't help but drink low.Compared with sitting in a sedan chair, running on silk, or walking on stilts, riding a horse is obviously much faster.

Baili Ziru got on her horse and looked at Yin Haochen specially. When she received Yin Haochen's gaze, her heart beat fast.He raised his whip and galloped out, arriving under the phoenix flower like lightning.

Relying on her good riding skills, she raised her hand and picked three phoenix flowers with ease, then turned the horse's head and galloped back.

When they returned to the starting point, everyone couldn't help applauding and cheering, and the maid in charge of recording the time was even more amazed and wrote down the short time.

Finally, it was Baili Jiuge's turn.

The expressions of everyone also changed from the admiration just now to the playfulness at the moment.

Standing in front of the hall, she looked at the phoenix flower blooming like fire in the distance, the light in her eyes was as clear as the flowing water of the three rivers, and her brilliance was as bright as a sword unsheathed in the dark night.But a cold light flashed by, and the corners of his lips twitched faintly.

"It's a pity that this flower has fallen to the point of entertaining people..." muttered softly, raised one hand, and plucked off the three phoenix flowers on her head in front of everyone.

With a flick of the long hair, it was like a splashing waterfall, and it was loosely scattered behind the head. Now that there is no bun on the head, it looks even more unrestrained and free and easy.

But seeing Baili Jiuge standing alone, her red dress as bright as a burning fire, and the three phoenix flowers in her hands reflecting the colorful sunlight, she opened her lips and said sonorously, "Let's begin!"

The moment the voice fell, exclamations of all the officials resounded in front of the palace.

Everyone never imagined that she... actually directly...

Light as a swallow, soar into the sky!

Baili Jiuge used his lightness skills to the extreme, concentrated all his attention, eliminated all external interference, and just galloped on the wind, as fast as a flaming meteor.

Everyone was shocked. Although many people had heard of Baili Jiuge's martial arts before, and had seen her perform lightness kung fu more or less, they had never seen it so vividly and shockingly like today.

She seemed to be chasing the sun, speeding towards the bright and dazzling place, the fiery red figure almost blending with the skylight.

But then, someone broke into a sweat for her.The phoenix flower is thirty feet away, so relying on lightness kung fu without any leverage, can it really make it under the tree?
"Oh my god!" Suddenly there was an exclamation.

The incredible scene made everyone dumbfounded.

I saw that when the nine songs of a hundred miles were approaching ten feet away, he suddenly raised his sleeves and waved a phoenix flower in his hand, stepping on the flower to take advantage of it, and accelerated to go further, leaving only the stepped phoenix flower broken into a piece. Petal after petal, dancing in the sun.

Then she walked another ten feet, stepping on the flowers again to borrow strength.

In this way, the connection was seamless, until the three flowers all flew into bright red Qingxue, and the phoenix tree was close at hand.

Raising the sleeves and pulling them lightly, he put the nine phoenix flowers into the sleeves in a flash, kicked the tree trunk hard, turned around and returned in the air, as fast as a shooting star chasing the moon, without any gap.

On the way back, it is still every ten feet, stepping on flowers to borrow strength, and the scattered red is like flying snow.

Dazzling, the figure of Baili Jiuge Yanhong had already returned to the front of Minser Hall.

The moment it landed lightly, the red clothes were like fire, the blue silk was like paint, and three phoenix flowers flew out from their sleeves, and landed precisely on the golden plate containing the phoenix flowers.

Everyone saw that there were three more phoenix flowers on the plate, and when they took a closer look, Baili Jiuge suddenly appeared in front of the maid who recorded the time. Heart bun, put the last three phoenix flower hairpins back into the bun, all in one go.

Let go of the hairpin, let go, and asked with a wanton smile in the silence: "Tell me, how long have I used it?"

The maidservant in front of her was almost dumbfounded, the pen holder in her hand fell suddenly, and a stroke of ink stained the silk.

She trembled in fright, quickly picked up the pen, and asked the servant in charge of checking the leak to tell her the time.

The servant was also shocked, and it took him a long time to find his own voice: "Qi, Qi, Your Majesty, the result of this competition is, yes... Shizifei won."

No one was in an uproar, that speed was simply an obvious result.

Baili Ziru bit her lower lip until it turned pale, her clenched fist was almost pierced by her nails.She stared at Baili Jiuge bitterly, took out a dart from under her sleeve, and was about to shoot it, when suddenly, someone bumped her body, and the dart fell into the water tank next to her.

Baili Ziru was startled, and looked angrily at the person who bumped into her, it turned out to be Rong Hui.But it seemed that Rong Hui was unintentional, he was staring at Baili Jiuge firmly at this moment, two clusters of unwilling flames burned in his pupils, as if they were going to burn to the top.

In the silence, suddenly, there was the sound of something falling to the ground.

Then, what broke the silence was the sudden killing intent!
With just a flick of a finger, countless masked assassins dressed in black appeared around Minser Hall, dancing and wielding sticks, and came to kill them!
"There are assassins!"

"Protect Your Majesty!"

The exclamation sounded, and the crowd suddenly became chaotic.

But seeing those assassins actually killed the female relatives, Yin Ruyi, Baili Ziru and Baili Hongxiao were among them.

She had never been assassinated in her life, and Baili Ziru collapsed on the ground, her eyes staring straight in fright.

Yin Ruyi was frightened, and pushed Baili Hongxiao out to block the knife, only to hear Baili Hongxiao scream, with a wound on her shoulder, and staggered backwards.

"Big sister!" Baili Jiuge rushed over.

Unexpectedly, someone jumped behind Baili Hongxiao one step ahead of her, caught her body, and at the same time went out with a sword to kill the two nearby assassins.He hugged the hundred-mile red silk tightly, and shouted eagerly: "How are you, are you all right?!"

"I... I'm fine..." Baili Hong whispered, her beautiful eyes were full of gratitude.

Such lingering eyes were captured by Baili Jiuge, and he recognized that the person who rescued Hongxiao was the young general who had brought the horse over for Baili Ziru just now.Forget it, it's good that Hongxiao is saved, the scene just now was too scary, but who sent these assassins, it's too risky to appear in broad daylight to assassinate the female relatives!

As the imperial guards came to escort them, the assassins were outnumbered and finally wiped out.The rest of them immediately committed suicide by taking poison and fell to the ground.

The female relatives still have lingering fears at this moment, and they gathered together crying, and they couldn't figure out why these assassins would pick them to attack.

Even Baili Qingping lied in the arms of Emperor Zhaoyi, stroking her belly, with a tear hanging from the corner of her eye, and whispered brokenly: "Your Majesty, you see, the sisters are all terrified, and Sister Hongxiao is even more affected." Injury, why don't you hurry up and send the imperial doctor to sister Hongxiao?"

"Yeah, how are you, Hung Hom?"

Emperor Zhaoyi walked over with Baili Qingping in his arms, leaned out and stared at Baili Hongxiao caringly, there seemed to be a burning feeling in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, my daughter...it's okay, just now General Meng has tapped my acupoints to stop the bleeding." Baili Hongxiao looked away, shivering and shrinking into the arms of General Meng, as if she was full of extreme fear.

The man hugged her tightly, as if guarding something important, with a serious and distressed expression.

The more Baili Jiuge looked at it, the more he felt that it was not the right way. Just at this moment, the old doctor came trotting out of breath and shouted: "The old minister is late, please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

Emperor Zhaoyi waved his hand, "Aiqing hurry up and show Hongxiao."

"Yes, yes." The old imperial doctor obediently, seeing that Baili Hongxiao's wound had stopped bleeding, he went to feel her pulse.

Bailihong's complexion suddenly changed, and she refused: "My daughter... My daughter is fine, so I don't bother the doctor."

"Huh?" The old doctor blinked in confusion.

Emperor Zhaoyi seemed to be concerned and said: "This is not allowed. Everyone saw that you blocked the knife regardless of your body. How can you not let the imperial physician look at it for you." He told the old imperial physician: "Go quickly."

"Uh...yes." The military order is like a mountain, and no matter what you say, you have to diagnose it.

Seeing that the old doctor was about to catch Baili Hongxiao's pulse, she dodged her arms in a panic, shaking her head, she refused to let him cut the pulse, and even looked at the young general who was holding her in her arms in horror, Desperately said: "Meng Fu, I can't do it, don't..."

"Hey, Miss Baili, don't shirk it. Aren't you embarrassing the old minister?" The old doctor sighed helplessly, and finally became cruel. her pulse.

"Hmm... skin trauma, it's nothing serious, just apply some herbal medicine and then--" His face turned pale suddenly, and his hand shook, and the veil fell to the ground.

The old doctor stared at Baili Hongxiao in shock, her eyes widened, and she froze.

Such a reaction naturally made everyone puzzled, Baili Qingping hurriedly asked: "What's wrong? Is there any problem with Sister Hongxiao's body?"

The old doctor came back to his senses suddenly, a drop of cold sweat trickled down from his forehead.He wiped his sweat with his cuffs and forced a smile: "Hui, Hui Concubine, it's nothing...it's nothing."

Emperor Zhaoyi's face turned cold: "Speak quickly if you have something to say, don't let me punish you for deceiving the emperor!"

"Ah?" The old doctor was so frightened that he fell to the ground and kowtowed, "Your Majesty, please forgive me, please forgive me! The old minister said, said..."

He looked at Baili Hongxiao's pale face with shame, and now he had no choice but to apologize to her from the bottom of his heart, and announced bravely: "Your Majesty, Miss Baili, she is... gone."

There were gasps one after another, and everyone turned their weird eyes on Baili Hongxiao.She is obviously still a virgin who has not left the court, and the old doctor's diagnosis will never be wrong, so whose child is in her belly?

Baili Jiuge was stunned, and finally understood why she felt that Hongxiao's stature was fatter than before, and what happened yesterday... It turned out that Baili Qingping really knew something.

"Meng Fu..." Baili Hongxiao murmured in despair.

Feeling the eyes gouging out her face, Baili Hongxiao felt extremely helpless, as if her heart was being tortured, and the blood and flesh were gouged out one by one.She buried her head in Meng Fu's arms, the palm of her left hand tightly clenched under her sleeve was covered with sticky cold sweat, the pain was like ice, like a snake's bite.

Meng Fu stared at her in shock, gritted his teeth and grunted, but hugged her even tighter.

For a moment, the air seemed to be stagnant, pressing down on everyone's heart.

But at this moment, Emperor Zhaoyi let out a few laughs.

"Hung Hom is happy? Is it true?"

The laughter was so weird that the old doctor's heart trembled, and he said tremblingly, "Return to Your Majesty, it's true."

"Oh..." Emperor Zhaoyi pondered for a moment, and said, "In that case, I can confer Hongxiao as Concubine Yun, and enter the palace as concubine today."

This time, everyone was as shocked as a thunderstorm on a sunny day, and even those who hadn't gasped just now couldn't stand it now.Unexpectedly, the child in Baili Hongxiao's belly is His Majesty's!
Meng Fu's face was as white as frost and snow, and the sword around his waist was trembling violently along with his body, and the tinkling sound of hitting the scabbard was like a turbulent wave hitting the shore, which was especially obvious in the silence.

Baili Jiuge finally understood.It turned out that Hong Hoo had a sweetheart, General Meng Fu, so what happened to Emperor Zhaoyi, could it be that he forced Hong Hom? !
There was a puff of anger in his stomach, and Baili Jiuge's eyes were filled with cold anger.

Emperor Zhaoyi, scum!

Better than beasts!

His left hand couldn't help but swung into a fist, trembling violently and about to raise it, but was suddenly gently held by someone.The man's icy temperature snaked along her palm lines and covered her whole body, cooling her rage unbelievably.

She looked at Mo Li who came to her side, and felt that he was gently opening her fist little by little, holding her left hand that still had scars, and then slightly shook her head at her without saying a word.

This meant Baili Jiuge understood, and Mo Li wanted her to wait and see what happened, and didn't want her to show such a jealous look.

Taking a deep breath, she suppressed her emotions and held Mo Li's hand instead.

On the other side, Baili Hongxiao trembled and sobbed: "I... I don't want to enter the palace... Your majesty, can you let me go, I really don't want to enter the palace..."

Emperor Zhaoyi frowned, "Isn't it good to enter the palace? From now on, stay by my side and let me take care of your mother and child." His soft voice, almost hallucinatory, was like poisonous honey, "Hongxiao, I like you, so you will come into the palace and serve me with your little sister Qingping. General Fengguo, what do you think?"

Being named, Baili Yue immediately ran out, unceremoniously pulled Baili Hongxiao out of Meng Fu's arms, and scolded: "Unworthy girl, how can I have such an ignorant person like you in Baili Yue?" Daughter! Why don’t you hurry up and kneel down to thank you?!”

"Father...I...you know that Meng Fu and I are in love, we—"

"Shut up!" With a slap on Baili Hongxiao's face, five fingerprints appeared clearly.

"Unworthy girl! Don't even look at how much I have. It is a great grace for a daughter of a concubine to enter the palace to serve His Majesty. How dare you speak nonsense? Look how you are as good as Jiuge!" Sex, I don’t know how to learn more from Qingping and Ziru!”

"Father...I..." Baili Hongxiao's eyes were full of tears, she was so desperate that she was speechless.

Baili Jiuge was extremely angry, his chest heaved violently, and at this moment he almost wanted to return the slap that Baili Yue slapped on Baili Hongxiao's face with his own hands.He was their father, but why did he mock them like this?Should they be treated like this just because they are concubines?
Bailiyue!They are simply used as tools to consolidate their status!
After all, the people present couldn't see it, but Queen Yuan said calmly: "Baili Hongxiao has been injured, it's better to rest earlier, and today's assassination should also be investigated immediately. Your Majesty, my concubine." I thought the palace banquet was over, let all the adults go back."

Emperor Zhaoyi thought for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said: "What the empress said is very true, come and find out about the assassination, all my loves, let's go." Softly said to Baili Hongxiao: "I will The Moon Palace is given to you, you can live in it to recuperate, and I will visit you when I finish dealing with today's affairs."

Baili Hongxiao remained silent, tears dripped from her empty eyes, and the transparent beads reflected her bloodless face, so rigid and hopeless, like a piece of pottery figurines.

She wanted to cry, but could not utter a word; she wanted to sue, but no one could make a decision for her.

She knew that her life was completely destroyed from this moment on.

Or maybe, in fact, since "that day", she has become a weed, doomed to be destroyed...

Baili Jiuge, who couldn't calm down for a long time, watched the people disperse one after another, only felt that the helplessness and despair emanating from Hongxiao's body were also soaking her, burrowing into her body bit by bit, tearing her internal organs Six internal organs.

He couldn't help holding Mo Li's hand tightly, using a lot of strength, as if to absorb his cold temperature to remind himself to calmly think about the future.

She turned her eyes, but she happened to see Rong Hui and Rong Weijun over there.

At this moment, the sun was shining brightly, and most of the people had dispersed, but the two brothers were still standing under a tree, whispering something.Baili Jiuge mobilized his internal energy but still couldn't hear clearly, but Rong Weijun's expression was very serious.

"Brother, I sincerely advise you not to go too far."

The low and inaudible voice was transmitted to Rong Hui's ears by Rong Weijun's inner strength, and he warned solemnly: "After all, Princess Ruyi is also your bedside person, but you don't hesitate to spend a lot of money to hire someone to assassinate her. If things come to light , the entire Youxiang Mansion will be implicated by you."

Rong Hui looked at Rong Weijun in shock, gritted his teeth and murmured: "I really underestimated you. You are so insightful that you can't hide anything from you. Yes, I wanted to kill Yin Ruyi, and she killed me. Isn't it miserable enough? Especially today, seeing Baili Jiuge's unparalleled beauty, I hate it, and I can't help but hint to the assassins in advance. If it weren't for this, how could Yin Ruyi get back this life and pay back Yin Ruyi? By mistake, I took a hundred-mile red gauze to go in..."
