After rebirth, I kidnapped the sickly Dugong
Chapter 389 The Starting Point of the Climax
When Wen Baizhi came back, she also brought some food for Si Jiu.
He had a bad stomach and had vomited severely yesterday, so Wen Baizhi only dared to give him some plain porridge or something like that.
But she asked Cuizhi to make some meat floss and mix it into the porridge, which would taste better than ordinary white porridge.
When she came back, she just felt that the atmosphere in the air was a little strange.
Rong Heng did not give Si Jiu acupuncture either. The two of them just sat there facing each other in silence.
Although Wen Baizhi felt a little curious, she still put the bowl of porridge aside and walked forward to take Si Jiu's hand.
This is the action she has been doing since Si Jiu lost his sight.
People who cannot see actually feel very insecure about the outside world.
Si Jiu is even worse.
Once Wen Baizhi left his reach, Si Jiu would become extremely nervous.
Although he didn't say it, Wen Baizhi knew it.
So she would tell him every time she went out, and would be by his side the first time she came back.
He just wanted to use his actual actions to slowly calm the uneasy beast in Si Jiu's heart.
It's the same this time.
"Zijin, I'm back. I brought you some porridge mixed with meat floss. I'll feed you some later. After you finish eating, you can take the medicine, otherwise your stomach will hurt again."
She always considers things so carefully.
Si Jiu's thumb slowly rubbed the back of Wen Baizhi's hand: "Okay, but I have to trouble you again."
He was indeed not expecting that he could not see for a moment.
Wen Baizhi smiled and said, "No, why are you being polite to me?"
Seeing this, Rong Heng wisely left the seat beside the bed for Wen Baizhi.
Wen Baizhi held the bowl of porridge in her hand, scooped up a small spoonful of porridge, and first put it to her lips to feel whether it was hot.
After she felt that it was not hot enough to put into her mouth, she let out a cry and signaled Si Jiu to open his mouth.
Si Jiu naturally did as he was told.
After feeding Si Jiu a small mouthful of porridge, Wen Baizhi was not in a hurry to feed him the next mouthful.
Because Si Jiu had a bad stomach, he didn't eat as fast as most people.
It takes a long time for each bite to enter the mouth and be swallowed.
And if the food is not to his liking and he is not careful after it enters his stomach, it will irritate his fragile stomach and intestines, and he may vomit it out after taking the first bite.
This kind of thing happened to Si Jiu often before.
But at that time he could still see, and he would handle any emergencies himself.
But at this moment, the only one he could rely on was Wen Baizhi.
Wen Baizhi knew that the task was huge, so she fed the baby carefully with every bite and observed Si Jiu's every expression carefully.
She also knew that Si Jiu was afraid of causing trouble for her, and most of the time he felt very uncomfortable, but he would grit his teeth and refuse to say anything.
She won't give him the chance this time.
Sure enough, when Si Jiu's micro-expression changed a little when he was fed the fourth mouthful of porridge.
Wen Baizhi also saw that his brows frowned slightly.
This was a sign of his discomfort.
She immediately put down the bowl of porridge, leaned forward, and covered Si Jiu's abdomen with her warm hands.
"Are you feeling stomach upset?" she asked softly.
Si Jiu didn't expect that even though he had hidden himself so well, he would still be discovered by her.
She was also afraid that if he didn't admit it, Wen Baizhi would be as angry as last time.
He quickly nodded and admitted, "I am feeling a little uncomfortable, and I can't eat anymore."
Even though he only ate a little, Rong Heng could probably drink that much in one gulp.
But he did feel a little uncomfortable.
Wen Baizhi moved her butt and got closer to him.
"It's okay, just tell me and I'll help you press it."
Rong Heng was standing nearby and saw how obedient Si Jiu was.
He even thought of the word "terribly well-behaved" to describe Si Jiu now.
There was no trace of the cold and indifferent look he had when he called the secret guards in just now.
Yes, just now when Wen Baizhi went out to wash and eat, Si Jiu had already called the secret guards to his side and instructed them to do a lot of things.
One is to find out who ordered the assassination of their team that day.
In the past, Si Jiu wouldn’t care who wanted to kill him.
But it's different now.
Now that Wen Baizhi is here, it is time for them to return to Chidu.
Everything had to be done to the last detail.
The second thing is to continue to get in touch with Shang Yao.
He had already inquired about it before.
Three days later, the remains of the old King Chidu will be sent to the imperial mausoleum in the eastern suburbs.
I believe King Chidu and Shang Yao will go there at that time.
What they have to do is to take this opportunity to negotiate with King Chidu and then find a way to get Shang Yao out.
Everything needs to be prepared in advance.
Si Jiu is the kind of person who only fights a prepared battle.
This time is no exception.
After arranging all these things, it was almost time for Wen Baizhi to come back.
Rong Heng discovered that Si Jiu seemed to intentionally or unintentionally avoid discussing business in front of Wen Baizhi.
Just when Wen Baizhi was about to reach the room, Si Jiu heard her footsteps getting closer and closer, and he couldn't hide the anxiety on his face.
He wished he could get out of bed and drive the secret guard out.
Fortunately, the secret guard acted quickly and escaped with a nimble somersault.
This is why Wen Baizhi didn't touch it.
My thoughts return to the present.
Si Jiu had leaned on Wen Baizhi's shoulder without knowing when.
The distance between the two was shortened infinitely.
Rong Heng simply couldn't bear to watch it.
In order to leave here quickly, he had to speak out and break the warm scene between the two of them.
"Well, the medicine should be ready to drink now. Why not drink it while it's hot?"
This reminded Wen Baizhi.
She patted Si Jiu's back and said, "Don't eat the porridge, but you still have to take the medicine. After you finish taking the medicine, you'll have to let Rong Heng give you a few injections. You may have some problems with your head from the fall, but if you take good care of yourself, it shouldn't be a big deal."
Si Jiu was reluctant to let her support him and lean against the head of the bed again.
Then she brought the medicine over.
The reason why Si Jiu's medicine always smelled bitter and tasted even more bitter was that Rong Heng knew Si Jiu's appetite, so he would always make the amount of medicine boiled for Si Jiu less and less.
Therefore, when the medicine becomes thick, it will taste more bitter when you drink it.
It wasn't really that Rong Heng was targeting him on purpose.
No matter how uncomfortable you feel, you have to finish the medicine.
After drinking the medicine, the good boy Si Jiu received a candied fruit as a reward from Wen Baizhi.
"Your sense of taste has been restored now. No matter how bitter the medicine is, I have to reward you with something sweet. Otherwise, you won't like taking medicine anymore."
She always seemed to like treating him like a child.
Si Jiu's heart was also filled with sweetness from the candied fruit.
"Three days from now is the day we plan to rescue the princess and find an opportunity to negotiate with the King of Chidu."
Si Jiu doesn't want to and won't hide such a thing from Wen Baizhi.
"If everything goes well, the princess will be taken away from Chidu by us in three days, and we can leave with complete peace of mind."
He added this, as if he had already been full of longing for this future in his heart.
"Okay." Wen Baizhi said.
Although no one can predict what the future will be like, at least there is a good hope, which is good.
Thinking of another thing that the secret guard had reported to him when he came in just now, Si Jiu hesitated for a while, and decided to tell Wen Baizhi after all.
"Bai Bai." He said nervously, "There is something I want to tell you."
Wen Baizhi saw that he seemed to be very serious: "What's wrong? What's the matter? I see your expression has changed."
Si Jiu said: "Just now the secret guard told me that His Majesty seems to be coming to Chidu in person."
When the secret guard told him about this, Si Jiu's first reaction was to worry that Wen Baizhi would be taken away again.
But he soon discovered that this was probably just his narrow-mindedness.
A big reason why Qi Yan'an wanted to come to Chidu at this time was that he wanted to go to the battlefield in person to boost the morale of the troops.
Even though there are still many aristocratic families in the court who oppose the war, this is also a good opportunity for Qi Yan'an to slowly take back the power of the aristocratic families.
"Your Majesty seems to always be that Your Majesty, always planning and strategizing, with goals and means."
Si Jiu spoke to Wen Baizhi very sincerely.
But Wen Baizhi's perspective is different from Si Jiu's: "So he finally decided that he would ignore Shang Yao no matter what, he must fight this battle, even if Shang Yao will become the target of public criticism, he doesn't care."
Shang Yao did so much for him and sacrificed so much, but in the end, she couldn't get the ending she really wanted?
Si Jiu was silent: "Your Majesty has suffered from the fact that the aristocratic families have held power for a long time. Now is the best time for him to take back the power. He will not give up this good opportunity no matter what."
Wen Baizhi understood all these principles, but she just felt sorry for Shang Yao.
"It's okay for anyone to have ambitions and desires, but they should not override the tragedy of others."
So this is why she would never get together with Qi Yanan no matter what.
At this time, Qi Yanan, whom they mentioned, was indeed on his way to the Dacheng border.
Actually, Qi Yan'an didn't have to come.
Even though the aristocratic families were worried about war breaking out, they were also worried that Qi Yan'an would use the issue of food to attack them.
But they were also more concerned about the safety of their monarch.
After all, Qi Yan'an has no children now, and they don't have much time to choose a suitable candidate for emperor.
So when Qi Yan'an said that he wanted to go to the border in person, everyone in the court opposed it.
Even when some ministers were killed on the spot, Qi Yan'an's decision was not changed.
Maybe he doesn't have to come.
But he just wanted to come and see.
Border.
This is the last place Wen Bai stayed.
That year, when he heard the news of Wen Bai's death in battle in Kyoto, he fainted several times and was rescued each time by the imperial physician.
He really loves to smell white.
But it seemed that even Wen Bai himself didn't believe it.
He had clearly made his love so obvious.
He also promised Wen Bai the highest status for women in the world.
But Wen Bai not only thought he was ridiculous, he also disdained his promise.
Until she died at the border.
At that time, he wanted to rush to the border in person to pick up Wen Bai.
A hundred years later, he would bury Wen Bai next to him.
Whatever honors he could not give her before her death, he would definitely prepare for her after her death.
He will now personally reach the border that he could not reach before.
He will definitely get Wen Baizhi now, even though he couldn’t get her before.
Qi Yanan sat in the carriage, his eyes full of determination.
Li Qing was riding a horse outside, following the speed of the carriage closely.
Suddenly Qi Yan'an lifted the curtain and asked, "You said before that there was no trace of them in Yunzhou?"
Li Qing was so frightened by Qi Yan'an's sudden words that he almost fell off his horse.
But he had been in the palace for many years after all, and he was able to handle any emergency situation without changing his expression.
"Yes, Your Majesty," Li Qing replied carefully, "When our people arrived there, they were still a step too late. They left, but according to the descriptions of the people around them, they should have lived there."
Qi Yan'an let down the curtain and thought to himself.
Where will Si Jiu take Wen Baizhi?
If they went to so much trouble just to leave Dacheng, then they should not come back to Kyoto.
Yunzhou didn't stay any longer.
Yunzhou is actually a very remote place in Dacheng.
Where else could they go?
Qi Yanan suddenly had an idea.
Since Wen Baizhi is Wen Bai, she will definitely not sit idly by and watch Shang Yao get into trouble.
If she wanted to take care of this matter, Si Jiu would definitely follow her.
That leaves them with only one place to go.
Qi Yan'an suddenly opened the curtain again.
Li Qing narrowly avoided being frightened and falling off his horse again.
This time, he failed to hide the frightened expression on his face immediately.
He was so scared that sweat broke out on his back.
If Qi Yan'an said that he was disrespectful, he might not be able to save his life.
But fortunately, Qi Yan'an is thinking about something else now.
He had no time to care about Li Qing.
"You, send more people and hurry to Chidu. Make sure you find Sijiu and the others in advance."
Li Qing didn't dare to ask the reason.
No one dared to question the emperor's will without reason.
After he answered yes, he reined in his horse and went to the back of the team.
Qi Yanan now only wants to fully achieve his goal.
He will continue to give Wen Baizhi the position he had promised to Wen Bai.
The daughter of the Su family, after all, her mother's family doesn't have much background, so her position can be abolished at will.
As long as he put this position in front of Wen Baizhi again, he didn't believe that she wouldn't be moved.
Si Jiu? What is he?
He is a rootless guy, how dare he snatch things from me?
Qi Yan'an seemed to have seen the scene of him holding Wen Baizhi's hand and walking in front of all the officials to receive their admiration.
And what about Si Jiu at that time?
If Si Jiu was willing to continue to lie at his feet like a dog and watch him and Wen Baizhi live happily together, he wouldn't mind saving his life.
If he was still the same as before, relying on that damn engagement and occupying the position that did not belong to him regardless of the consequences.
Then it's his fault for being rude.
And in Chidu’s palace, in Shang Yao’s bedroom.
Fifteen, dressed in black, knelt at Shang Yao's feet.
"Princess, three days from now is the time we agreed with Si Jiu. Someone will arrange to take you away then."
Fifteen has lost a lot of weight, but his face is still as cold and handsome as ever.
Shang Yao leaned over and lifted his chin with her hand: "What will you do if I leave?"
Fifteen opened their mouths, but before they could answer, Shang Yao covered their lips with her index finger.
"Think about it before you answer. You know what I want to hear most from you."
