After rebirth, I kidnapped the sickly Dugong

Chapter 169 Two People Going to the Temple (Gifts and More)

It turned out that there were many things behind the wedding that night that Wen Baizhi didn't know.

She had always thought that Si Jiu did not take getting married seriously, but the reason turned out to be because Si Jiu wanted to protect Wen Baizhi so that she could get away in the future.

It can even be said that Si Jiu has always had his own in his heart. If Qi Yan'an hadn't interfered, Si Jiu might not have known until now that Wen Baizhi's inner heart had been replaced by Wen Bai.

Thinking of this, Wen Baizhi felt that Qi Yan'an had done so many bad things, but only this one thing could be called a good thing.

But Qi Yan'an was indeed too targeted at Si Jiu.

It was okay when she didn't know before, but now that she knows, and Si Jiu is the person she loves the most, she can't just watch Si Jiu being bullied by him anymore.

After Wen Baizhi was reborn, she actually didn't know much about Qi Yan'an's situation.

I only heard Si Jiu say during the autumn hunt that he already has a queen and a concubine.

That's right, how can a king of a country not fill up his harem as soon as possible?

The young man who once promised her that there would be only her and only one queen in the harem is now drifting further and further away.

"How many concubines does Qi Yan'an have in his harem now?" She suddenly became curious.

Si Jiu was alerted by her question: "Why are you suddenly asking about him?"

Wen Baizhi knew that this person must still be worried that he would be snatched away by Qi Yan'an.

Then he smiled and said, "I'm just a little curious, but I can't ask anyone else, so I have to ask you, who is closest to me."

The word "most" really pleases Si Jiu.

He replied: "Your Majesty has only one queen and one concubine in the harem, and there are no children yet."

This is really strange.

In every dynasty, the emperor's most important task besides government affairs was to enrich the harem and expand the royal family.

But Qi Yan'an has been on the throne for so long, and not only does he have few concubines in his harem, he doesn't even have any offspring.

This is really weird.

Si Jiu naturally knew what she was thinking: "I know what you are thinking. I have told you before that the reason why His Majesty has always punished me to kneel is because His Majesty cannot go to commemorate Wen Bai by himself, so he always makes me kneel in front of Wen Bai's tablet. Even now, His Majesty still has a place for Wen Bai in his heart."

Now it became clear why Si Jiu had refused to let her meet Qi Yanan.

She asked, "So when you stopped Qi Yan'an from seeing me during the autumn hunt, and when you went to sweep the snow and came out of the palace, and when you had a conflict with me in the carriage but refused to explain, it was all because you were afraid that Qi Yan'an would discover my existence and even snatch me away?"

Si Jiu is really a taciturn person. If Wen Baizhi didn't ask about these things, he might never tell them.

Seeing that things had come to this point, Si Jiu had no choice but to admit it.

"It's all because I'm worried that His Majesty will see you. I think that if I can recognize you at once, then His Majesty, who is obsessed with you, will naturally recognize you as well.

He is His Majesty, the supreme being in Dacheng status. If he wants to snatch you away, I will be powerless to resist.

And if I lose you again, I really don’t know how I can live on.”

Wen Baizhi knew that Si Jiu had always lacked a sense of security and self-confidence.

Regardless of the unpopular bastard from the Marquis’s Mansion three years ago.

Or maybe he is now the governor.

He never dared to look up in front of her.

She comforted him, "Don't worry, Zijin, I will protect myself and not let Qi Yan'an find me. Even if he thinks I am Wen Bai, as long as I don't admit it, then he can't do anything to me. After all, this is a very bizarre thing, and most people won't believe it."

So she was still surprised that Si Jiu could accept the fact that she was Wen Bai so easily.

Si Jiu's uneasy mood was slightly relieved by her: "I will protect you, too. Qi Yanan, no matter what, you can't snatch you away from me this time."

Finally, Si Jiu said, "If the weather is good tomorrow, I will take you to see Master Tianfa. By the way, I will also fulfill my wish and thank him for helping me find you."

Wen Baizhi was naturally willing: "Everything is up to you."

The next day the weather was indeed sunny as Si Jiu wished.

With the help of Cuizhi and Ping'an, the two packed some clothes and things to take to the temple, took the soul-returning lamp, and set off for Baoen Temple where Master Tianfa was.

On the way, Wen Baizhi asked Si Jiu: "Are you really planning to stay in the temple for a while this time? Don't you want to deal with the affairs of the court?"

Si Jiu leaned against the wall of the carriage and said, "His Majesty granted me a few days' leave, saying that I had worked hard to clear the snow and rescue the disaster some time ago, and my eyes were injured, so he let me rest at home for a while and come to court when I feel better."

Wen Baizhi said disdainfully: "I don't understand what he did. I always feel that I am not used to him unless he does something bad."

Si Jiu thought about it and said, "In fact, His Majesty is a good emperor. Except for the fact that His Majesty couldn't make up his mind about whether to make peace with the Chidu Kingdom, he was a good emperor who cared about the people all the time. Dacheng is also getting better and better under his governance."

This is true, although Wen Baizhi doesn't want to admit it.

Like Si Jiu, Qi Yan'an was just an unknown prince born to an unfavored concubine in the late queen's palace.

At that time, his mother was ill, and it was Wen Bai who helped him find the imperial physician and temporarily saved his mother's life.

She would also often visit this prince who was bullied by the palace servants.

He also introduced Si Jiu to him.

It can be said that when the three of them first met, they were all the most innocent.

Later, his mother died.

When she died, Wen Bai went to pay tribute to her.

Qi Yanan also cried with red eyes in front of her at that time.

After that, he began to bide his time and slowly build up his power in the court.

Later, he actually seized the throne in one fell swoop.

It was only after he ascended the throne that he expressed his feelings to Wen Bai.

Wen Baichu just thought he was talking nonsense and didn't take his words to heart.

But he told her several times later.

He even promised her that she would be the only queen in the harem.

It can be heard that freedom was paramount at that time.

Nothing can stop her from pursuing freedom.

So she refused.

And he pulled Si Jiu in as an excuse.

This also planted the seeds for Qi Yan'an's hatred towards Si Jiu in the future.

But no matter how good Qi Yanan is, he can't compare to Si Jiu by even a hair.

She held Si Jiu's arm coquettishly and leaned on his shoulder: "I don't like Qi Yanan no matter how good he is. I only like Si Jiu. I think Si Jiu is the most powerful, the best, and the best person in the world."

Si Jiu knew that maybe she said these words deliberately to comfort him, but he still liked to hear them.
