As soon as these words came out, Jing Heng was completely stunned, "What did you say? He is not from the Qianzhou Bei clan, so who is he?"
"You don't need to know who he is. You just need to know that there are many people who yearn for peace in this world."
"Hmph, it sounds grand, but who are you to judge me? I just fell into your trap this time. The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. If you want to fight or kill, just listen to me."
It is extremely difficult to communicate with Jing Heng at this time.
Jingchen simply looked at Jing Shi, who nodded.
"First take King Heng into custody so that he can be supervised, and then he will be released later."
"yes."
A palace incident ended like this in the night.
At this moment, in the house outside the imperial city, Shi Qinghuan and the three of them were sitting side by side in the yard, looking at the quiet streets and sighing.
"Do you think things went well?"
"It will definitely go smoothly. Everything has been arranged. With Jing Heng's temperament, he will definitely attack the Holy Emperor in the palace. As long as he does it, he will be finished."
"What about the little sage?"
Bailiheng chuckled and said, "Since he is an emperor, even if he is young, he will not be an ordinary person."
Yes, if you are an ordinary person, when the regent is poisoned, the court will be in chaos.
But everything was in order, and he was able to set up a trap against Jing Heng later, which shows that the regent was never a puppet, but a real emperor.
Shi Qinghuan was filled with admiration.
As morning approached, there was finally movement outside.
When there was a knock on the door of the mansion, Cheng Qianyue rushed over impatiently.
Especially when she saw Jingchen's haggard face, Cheng Qianyue's eyes were full of worry and she reached out to help him in.
"Are you okay?"
"Nothing, everything goes well."
After saying that, Shi Qinghuan stepped forward and took his pulse.
"Don't worry, eldest princess, it's just tiredness, and the toxins haven't been completely removed, so you'll be a little weaker. It's nothing serious."
Cheng Qianyue breathed a sigh of relief.
But Jingchen stood up, looked at Bailiheng, took a step back, and bowed respectfully.
Bailiheng saw this and quickly returned the gift.
The powerful people in the two countries' courts all admire each other in their eyes at this moment.
"This time the civil strife has been calmed down, and I have to thank you, Mr. Zuo."
"Your Majesty, you're welcome. I just did what I should do. Your Majesty and I are the same person and do the same thing."
Just for peace.
The two looked at each other and smiled, then sat down again.
"I've long heard that Mr. Zuo Xiang is a master of chess, but I didn't expect that he was so precise that even Jing Heng couldn't detect the slightest bit. I'm a little curious about the details."
"It's just a coincidence. When I have the opportunity, I will discuss it with the prince in detail. Now that the civil strife has subsided, it's time for us to rush to the border."
When it came to leaving, Cheng Qianyue couldn't help but look at Jingchen.
The expression in his eyes was complicated, and he hesitated to speak.
But Jingchen reached out and held Cheng Qianyue's hand tightly.
"My people are ready. We can set off after dawn. I will go with you."
"What?"
Everyone was shocked, and Jingchen continued, "The order to withdraw the troops was indeed sent out secretly on the night Yue'er met me. We rushed it eight hundred miles away. We should have reached the border town by now, but I am still a little worried."
Bailiheng guessed the inside story, "Are you afraid that someone will violate military orders abroad?"
"Yes, this war is a good opportunity for Jing Fan to make a name for himself, and he didn't know about going to Beijing, so he will be even more obsessed with capturing Tiansheng and ascending to the throne of God, even if the imperial edict sends him If so, he might not only turn a blind eye, but also hide it from other soldiers."
Upon hearing this, Shi Qinghuan and Cheng Qianyue's expressions changed, while Bailiheng remained calm.
"I believe that since the regent has thought of this, he won't have any other preparations, right?"
"Yes, a total of three copies of the imperial edict were issued, one to the mortal king, and one to the generals protecting the city. However, these two copies may not be effective, so the third copy was given to the generals guarding the city."
Jingchen coughed twice and continued, "Jecheng is not too far from the Western Region, and there are many soldiers and horses under his command. The guard general is a person who is loyal to the Holy One and has peace of mind. If he goes to read out the truth of the imperial edict, then If we block it, even if we can't persuade the mortal king to return, we can at least prevent him from starting another war. In this way, we can also have time to rush to the border city in the west."
It turned out that he had arranged everything so well.
Cheng Qianyue's eyes were full of worry, "Now that the arrangements have been made, we can go on our own. Your toxins are not cleared and your body is weak. How can you travel a long distance?"
Jingchen shook his head, "Only when I go can the war be completely calmed down, and besides, I still have things to do this time."
Jingchen didn't say it clearly, but the hot look in his eyes made Cheng Qianyue understand in his heart.
Just when Cheng Qianyue lowered her eyes, Jingchen looked at Shi Qinghuan.
"It's been a bumpy ride, and I have to work hard for my body."
"Your Majesty, you're welcome. I will definitely keep you safe."
After speaking, he nodded towards Cheng Qianyue to reassure her.
"In that case, it's almost dawn, so we're going to pack our bags."
Bailiheng said, stood up, pulled Shi Qinghuan and went inside.
Cheng Qianyue and Jingchen were left looking at each other.
The luggage in the room had already been packed away, and Shi Qinghuan was lying by the window, looking out the window quietly through the window sill.
Bailiheng was also squatting beside her, with a smile on his face.
"Ahen, what did the regent say just now that he has something to do?"
"Of course it's something I wanted to do but didn't do, and now I don't want to regret anything anymore."
Shi Qinghuan was overjoyed when he heard this, "You mean, the eldest princess?"
Shi Qinghuan turned around a little fiercely and bumped into Bailiheng's jaw.
Frightened, he stumbled and fell down.
Bailiheng ignored the pain, put his arms around Shi Qinghuan's waist, pulled her into his arms, and turned over.
Just like that, Shi Qinghuan's arms were warm and soft, and Baili Gang made a meat pad.
She lay entirely in his arms, her head buried directly into the crook of his neck.
When he raised his head, his lips brushed against the side of his face, and everything he looked at was red.
Bailiheng's eyes were even more intense. The moment Shi Qinghuan stood up in panic, he stretched out his hand to pull her back.
"Qing Huan, if I also want to do what I once wanted to do but never did, what do you think?"
Bailiheng's gaze was full of light, but it also carried an irresistible domineering look.
It seemed as if Shi Qinghuan would be swallowed whole in the next moment.
Shi Qinghuan's heart was beating fast. She understood the desire in his eyes and vaguely guessed the meaning of his words.
There was still some inexplicable expectation in her heart.
As they looked at each other, endless light flowed between the two of them. Bailiheng's eyes were extremely gentle. He stood up slowly and tentatively touched the back of her neck with his hand.
He ran his fingers through his hair, and when he saw that Shi Qinghuan didn't refuse, he cautiously leaned forward.
And Shi Qinghuan looked at Bailiheng who was so close in front of him, clutching the corners of his clothes with both hands, his heart beating so fast that he almost fainted.
Shi Qinghuan's nervousness fell into Bailiheng's eyes and turned into endless smiles.
The original impulse to lean down turned into support between his hands, gently lifting Shi Qinghuan up.
The sunlight from the window shone into the room and fell on the two of them, with endless light.
"It's almost time, we should set off."
Shi Qinghuan, who had all his expectations failed, was very embarrassed at this moment. He could only blush and turned around to pick up the baggage.
Just as she was about to step out, Bailiheng reached out to hold her, and pulled her into his arms again.
The embrace was warm and calm, but Shi Qinghuan was a little confused.
"Qing Huan, everything can be done slowly. You don't have to be nervous. I will wait until...the moment you are willing."
Therefore, it was not her wild imagination just now, but his restraint.
And this restraint is because... you think she doesn't want to?
The tenderness whispered in his ear was irreplaceable. The corners of Shi Qinghuan's lips curled up slightly, and a smile emerged.
Just when she was about to say yes in Bailiheng's ear, Cheng Qianyue's voice suddenly appeared outside the door.
"Are you ready?"
The two hurriedly separated.
After tidying up my clothes, I walked out.
And Shi Qinghuan's willingness was put aside for the time being.
Not urgent.
He will know.
