When Shen Ge and Shen Qingyue were heartbroken because they were just dragging their feet and were not valued by Qi Xiao at all, Bai Yi had already looked at the knees of Mrs. Shen and Chu.
Among them, Mrs. Shen, a female general, has a good foundation. Although her knees are a little red and swollen, it is not a problem.
Bai Yi didn't say a word when he was applying medicine and massaging her, and he was sitting upright.
Based on this alone, Bai Yi, whose husband is also a general, has a good impression of her after staying in Hanyuguan for more than ten years.
The two also chatted about the battlefield in a few words, analyzing the differences between water warfare and land warfare.
Compared with Mrs. Shen's relaxation, Mrs. Chu San could only be described as miserable.
This lady was delicate and frail and couldn't bear the pain the most, because Bai Yi just touched her red, swollen and worn knees, and she screamed as if Bai Yi wanted to kill her.
Bai Yi had to deal with this briefly for her, and then said goodbye to Tianxi.
What makes people silent is that there was so much movement in the front hall, but the sleep of a certain princess in the back hall was not affected at all, so that Concubine Liu Xian and the two ladies waited for more than an hour.
"Xianfei, why don't you go back to Jingren Palace for dinner first? When our princess wakes up later, the Sa family will send someone to Jingren Palace to invite you over."
Standing in front of Concubine Liu Xian with a smile, Tian Xi felt that there was no problem with her proposal.
After all, he knew their princess very well. It was hard to say when her princess would wake up from this sleep!
If Concubine Fang Guifei and Concubine Chu Shu were here, he might just let them wait, but Concubine Liu Xian had no enmity with their princess...
He, Tianxi, is not stupid. He knows that if this matter spreads, it will bring bad reputation to his princess, so isn't he here to persuade others?
"Thank you, Eunuch Tianxi, for your concern. I had a lot of snacks at Jingren Palace before coming here. It's okay to go back now. It's better to stay here and talk to the two ladies, as if I'm taking care of them for the princess." .”
Concubine Liu Xian fiddled with the rosary on her wrist, with a smile as warm as the spring breeze between her brows and eyes.
It seems that just by sitting here, people can't help but relax and no longer worry about the long road ahead.
Mrs. Shen and Chu wanted to refuse, but Concubine Liu Xian smiled and said:
"You two ladies, there is no need to refuse. Just think that I want to accompany the princess here and just comfort you by the way."
Concubine Liu Xian had already talked about this, and Tian Xi and Mrs. Shen could no longer shirk it.
After all, having Concubine Liu Xian here is good for both of them, especially Shen Chu.
Even Tianxi felt that having Concubine Liu Xian voluntarily accompany her here would help outsiders gossip less about their princess, which would make them slaves happy.
More than an hour passed like this, and the lazy Feng Xi finally made some movement.
Without the need for gorgeous clothes and accessories, Feng Xi only had her hair pulled into a bun and a hosta inserted, and then she came to Liu Xianfei and the others.
The palace lanterns are swaying, but they are not half as beautiful as the beautiful lady.
At this moment, even Mrs. Shen, who had always disliked the feminine style of women in the capital and admired the sassy style, couldn't help feeling that her son was really unworthy.
At least her son would be so overwhelmed that he would lose all his color standing in front of such beauties.
However, Concubine Liu Xian spoke to Feng Xi very naturally:
"A few days ago, the Imperial Palace heard from Yun Xuan that the princess met an assassin. The assassin managed to escape because the prince's lineage and the fourth prince's lineage refused to seal the city. Fortunately, princess, you are okay, otherwise the emperor would have been It’s going to be sad.”
She didn't say anything that would make her sad or worried, because judging from Feng Xi's previous attitude towards her, she didn't intend to get close to her at all.
It was a good time to bring up the emperor, so maybe they could have a few words about it.
However, she heard Feng Xi change her focus and say:
"Who said that the assassin was not caught because they refused to block him? It was obviously me who asked Qi Xiao to escape."
Concubine Liu Xian: "?"
She felt that the princess was probably sleep-deprived and started talking nonsense instead of crazy.
She knew that "assassin". With his character and background, he wanted to escape but still needed to be let go?
Besides, what reason does the dignified Princess Protector have to let go of someone who wants to harm her?
Is there something wrong with your brain?
Although she had a lot of disdain in her heart, Concubine Liu Xian didn't show it at all on her face.
She just looked at Feng Xi tenderly, and said in a tone full of doting towards her junior:
"It's okay if the princess wants to let it go. If you are hindered by others, you will inevitably feel angry. Being angry will hurt your body and even yourself. It's not worth it, it's really not worth it."
"That's right, I always punish others to entertain myself, how can I make myself angry? Oops, not bad, it seems you understand very well."
Concubine Liu Xian: "..."
Although Feng Xi was praising her, why did she feel a little upset?
Concubine Liu Xian was thinking about it here, but Feng Xi over there had already spoken to Mrs. Shen:
"Okay, I will give you one hour, please start your performance."
Although she didn't know what "performance" meant, Mrs. Shen stood up immediately after hearing this.
"Princess Jin An, I am the wife of the mighty general Youjiao, the biological mother of the third prince-in-law Shen Ge and the second young lady Shen Qingyue. I have come here for no other reason than to beg the princess to spare my son's life. For this reason, I am willing to give everything. Let me be at your disposal, princess!"
Having said this, You Jiao knelt down in front of Feng Xi with a plop.
But unlike those who knelt down and kowtowed their heads before, You Jiao knelt very quietly. She just put her head on the ground and waited quietly for Feng Xi to pronounce the sentence.
This kind of treatment may not seem pious, but it makes people feel very comfortable, at least without the feeling of being forced or driven.
Seeing that You Jiao had taken the lead in exerting her strength, Mrs. Chu San who was beside her immediately fell to her knees, imitating You Jiao's example and said:
"I am Wang, the wife of Chu Ming, the imperial censor. I am here to beg the princess to spare my useless husband's life so that my family will not be destroyed..."
Her adaptability is obviously not as good as the battle-hardened You Jiao, so even with the example of You Jiao in front of her, people can't help but frown at what she says.
But Feng Xi is not a person who values rules and formalities, so what You Jiao and Wang heard were her straightforward questions:
"So what can you do for me?"
Hearing this, You Jiao almost didn’t even think about it:
"I am now very weak in the Shen family, so I may not be able to influence the Shen family's decision. But I can guarantee that the You family will follow the princess to the death, and the two naval forces under the You family will also be loyal to you!"
Feng Xi nodded.
She likes simple and direct people like You Jiao.
Doesn't Qi Xiao like the army so much? It doesn't seem impossible to give him a navy to play with.
Feng Xi was closing her eyes and thinking, when she saw You Jiao taking the lead again, Wang suddenly kneeled up to her and said loudly:
"Princess, I am the mistress of the third room of the Chu family. If I can be the mistress of the third room of the Chu family, my third room will swear allegiance to the death..."
Before Wang could finish her words, her hand had already touched the golden hairpin in her hair, and stabbed Feng Xi on the soft couch with the tip of the hairpin.
