Prince Consort

Chapter 19
Bai Zhi lost her anger, Qing He lost her vigor, and became a cute little girl again. She kowtowed three times to Bai Zhi, and then burst into tears: "Miss, I don't know, I just know that I have him." I will be inexplicably happy even if...even if he never knows, even if...he doesn't love me at all."

The love of moths to the flame, even wishful thinking.The tragic past in the dream flowed in Bai Zhi's mind, she closed her eyes heavily, and smiled lightly: "Qing He, I admire your courage." She has lost this courage, and even lost the ability to love.

Bai Zhi said: "I won't interfere with your matter. It's just... I can't keep you."

Qing He cried even harder and kowtowed three times: "Miss, thank you."

Bai Zhi thinks that this matter can be stopped at this point, and that master and servant have a share, but after all, she grew up with Qing He, and she was somewhat reluctant to leave Qing He.However, there is an enduring custom in Suzhou City. Unmarried women who are pregnant must be immersed in a pig cage or burnt to the public.

If Qing He stays in the White Mansion, her stomach will get bigger and bigger, and she won't be able to hide it when the time comes, and her life will be in danger.

It's just that she didn't expect that this matter would develop so fast, even before she had time to send Qing He away, the conservatives in Sioux City came to the White Mansion with sticks to arrest people, but it wasn't Qing He who was arrested, but Bai Zhi.

No way, she's notorious.

The servants of the Bai Mansion had been dismissed long ago. There was no manpower to resist. The conservatives came to Bai Zhi's other courtyard almost unimpeded. Due to etiquette, they yelled outside Bai Zhi's boudoir, wave after wave: "Whore, whore!"

Qing He in the room cried anxiously: "Then why didn't the pharmacy owner keep the secret for me?! I gave three taels of silver to silence him!"

Bai Zhi at the side was obviously much calmer.She actually likes being a "whore", but only in front of Pei Jiu.She didn't like the clamor of these conservatives.But she still had the mind to tease the impatient Qing He: "Qiu Chan also gagged him with silver, presumably he is a Pixiu who only eats gold, silver and jewelry."

Qing He's tears flowed out patter: "What should I do? What should I do?"

"It's not easy, you rush out and call yourself that whore, don't you get it?" Bai Zhi felt that this suggestion was very good, and smiled wickedly at Qing He.

Qing He's eyes were red, she gritted her teeth, pondered for a while, and wanted to rush out as if she was going all out.Bai Zhi grabbed her in time, and said with a smile: "Are you stupid? Are you going to call yourself off?"

"But if Qing He doesn't go out, Miss will be arrested and burned." Qing He was obviously frightened.

Bai Zhi laughed helplessly: "The clearer cleans itself. I have no goods in my stomach, what can they do to me? It's you, you are the real deal." Bai Zhi poked Qing He's stomach with no good intentions.

Qinghe was enlightened, and immediately wiped away her tears, no longer nervous.

Bai Zhi said: "Obviously the pharmacy owner didn't disclose this matter. Otherwise, why didn't the pharmacy owner expose it in time, but opened the golden mouth after ten days? The talkative person is still brewing? Either the pharmacy owner was drunk and leaked it." , or someone found out through other channels. In short, everything..." Bai Zhi pointed to Qing He, "It's all because of you!"

Qing He bowed her head and remained silent.

Bai Zhi sighed: "Either you were discovered when you bought the medicine, or you were discovered when you were decocting the medicine. If someone asks why you bought the anti-fetal medicine, you say you bought it for Qiu Chan. I think she will help us. If someone When asked why you decocted medicine at home, you said it was for the birth of rabbits, and said that I have been weak recently and need tonic. Remember!"

Qing He shuddered, and listened attentively to Bai Zhi's "Admonition of the Most Reasonable".

"There are three ways to success. First, persevere. Second, be shameless. Third, insist on being shameless. Even if you lie shamelessly, don't feel wrong." Qing He will not lie. see.So, she was still a little worried.

Qing He nodded solemnly.

For the sake of the lady and the child, she decided to follow the path of success: persevere, be shameless, persist in being shameless!

Bai Yuan scolded angrily from outside the door: "Nonsense, do you still take my Zhizhou seriously?"

"Can a daughter who knows the state disobey women's morals?" The conservatives retorted very quickly.

"Don't talk about my daughter like that." Liu's voice was always soft, but now that she was angry, her voice became louder.

Bai Zhi sighed in her heart.Alas, she was already worthless in Bai Yuan's heart, like an abandoned child, but now the impression is a bit worse, Bai Yuan will not take her and Liu Shi to the capital even more.

Bai Zhi ruthlessly pinched her thigh, the pain made her tears fly and roll down.

Seeing that the naughty young lady suddenly turned into a pitiful look, Qing He was stunned for a while.Bai Zhi rushed out the door, and Li Hua rushed into Liu Shi's arms with rain: "Mother, Zhi'er was wronged."

"Mother believes in you."

"Hmph, keep pretending, Miss Bai."

Bai Zhi looked back, was it the nanny who begged Bai Yuan to stay at the house?At this time, her eyes were full of resentment and anger, as if she couldn't wait to vent.Bai Zhi's eyes sank: "Why should I pretend? I don't believe you asked a doctor to feel my pulse. I'm not pregnant at all. True gold is not afraid of fire."

At this time, Qing He ran out and said loudly, "That's right. I bought an anti-fetal drug, and you all judged that my lady is pregnant? A joke." Qing He waited for others to question her, but unexpectedly...

Mammy sneered: "Of course I know you are sterile."

This matter was not expected, Qing He was terrified, and Bai Zhi was no longer calm.

"Miss Qinghe, have you forgotten the Tibetan safflower? It's a good medicine for abortion." The nanny suddenly took out the medicine residue, "Did you forget the medicine you decocted a few days ago?"

Qing He's face turned pale.

Bai Zhi was speechless, it was due to her negligence, Qing He mentioned that she wanted to have an abortion, but she never expected that Qing He would implement it...

Qing He's psychological endurance was too low, and she panicked all of a sudden: "This medicine is not for Miss, it's for..."

Bai Zhi shouted: "I swear to the death!" She suddenly yelled, and finally blocked Qing He's blurted truth.Qing He was so frightened that she went to look at Bai Zhi, only to see Bai Zhi staring at her with eyes as big as copper bells.

Bai Yuan said angrily: "How long are you going to lose face!" After slapping down the face, blood dripped from the corner of Bai Zhi's mouth, it was obvious that Bai Yuan's attack was serious.

Bai Zhi covered her red and swollen face, stubbornly refusing to cry.Regarding the matter of his daughter's life and death, Bai Yuan didn't want to help her, but became angry out of embarrassment.This is her father.Bai Zhi was chilled for a while, and sneered: "Don't you believe in your daughter?"

"Father doesn't know what kind of virtue you are?" Bai Yuan said, "You can do whatever you like, I have the right not to have this daughter."

He doesn't believe her.

Liu cried loudly: "Master! What are you talking about!"

"What a good daughter you have taught!" Bai Yuan said coldly, and walked away.

The conservatives seemed to be recognized, they rushed forward and tied Bai Zhi.Qing He chased after her, and wanted to speak a few times, but was too frightened by Bai Zhi's vicious eyes to dare to speak.Qinghe had no choice but to look for Qiuchan, and even climbed up the mountain to look for Qiuchan, but was told that Qiuchan had been out for seven or eight days.

Where did Qiu Chan go again?This is critical.

The city was full of turmoil, and the people went to the center of the city to watch the excitement, only to see that Bai Zhi was forcibly put on the firewood and boards that had been prepared by the conservatives to show off to everyone.Bai Zhi scolded and struggled all the way, but no matter how she defended, they were right to ignore it.Apparently, they didn't care if she was really scandalous or not, they just wanted her dead!Before taking the stage, Bai Zhi continued to reprimand angrily: "A bunch of thugs, without evidence, I..." Before Bai Zhi could finish speaking, a ball of cloth was forced into her mouth by her mother.Bai Zhi wanted to complain, but at this moment she could only be a mute, no matter how hard she tried, all she could say was "Woooo".

This time, she was really going to suffer from being dumb and died.

The mother pointed at Bai Zhi, facing the public, she was passionate and indignant, and plausibly said: "Bai Zhi, the daughter of the prefect of Suzhou City, does not abide by women's morals, is extremely promiscuous, unmarried and pregnant, because she is afraid that this matter will be publicized, she thinks she can rest easy by aborting her own child. Fortunately, Skynet restored , Sloppy but not omission, when I left the White House, I ran into this incident by chance and exposed it to the public. Such a chaste and virtuous daughter is against morality and should be burned."

"Okay, okay!" Half of the people in the audience raised their fists to show their support.Others were whispering, and they didn't know what they were discussing.What made Bai Zhi heartbroken was that no one came forward to suspect this matter, and to apologise for her.It seems her notoriety runs deep.

She is someone who has died once, and she is not afraid to die again.It's just that she didn't think it was worth dying like this.She was tied to a stake, and Mammy approached her with a torch.Bai Zhi saw Nanny's ferocious face, expression of resentment, and almost crazy eyes.

Bai Zhi raised her leg and kicked Mammy hard.Mammy felt the pain, covered her stomach, and glared at her fiercely.Bai Zhi also stared back.The morality of this woman who wanted revenge had already left her body, so she continued to raise a torch and was about to throw it at her.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the audience, and a galloping horse broke into the crowd. On top of the horse, Mu Tusu was wearing a golden armor with flying long hair, and the cloak behind his back fluttered with his long hair.And he was watching her grimly.

Why is he here?Bai Zhi was stunned for a while.

I saw the non-stop steed jumping directly onto the wooden platform, and stopped in front of Bai Zhi.Without saying a word, Mu Tusu dismounted directly, slapped Nanny across the face, pronounced his words very clearly, and said in a sonorous and forceful voice, "You dare to burn my woman!"

Mammy was stunned and stood there motionless, like a sculpture.

Mu Tusu didn't untie Bai Zhi's rope, but directly hugged her who was tied like a rice dumpling.Bai Zhi resisted, yelled "woo woo", and twisted his body, but he was as steady as Mount Tai, looking at her "riot" calmly, his eyes raised, as if saying "Move again! It will be the same if you move again" .

Bai Zhi didn't move.She knew that she struggled to no avail.

Mu Tusu carried Bai Zhi onto the horse, and followed him on the horse.Bai Zhi felt a warm feeling on her back, and moved forward a little uncomfortably.She didn't want to be in his arms.

"Move any further, and you'll be sitting on the horse's neck." Mutusu glanced at her.

Bai Zhi had no choice but to move back...

Then Mutusu took the cloth from her mouth, leaned over and pecked at the corner of her mouth, then gnawed her again as if to relieve his hatred.Bai Zhi stared blankly at Mutusu, only to hear that Mutusu said expressionlessly, "You owe me this."

Bai Zhi gritted her teeth and glared at him, it's not appropriate to get angry in public.She wondered why he could arrive in time at such a critical moment?Did I just pass by by chance or...

It wasn't until she saw Qiu Chan riding on the same horse panting among the crowd in the audience that she suddenly realized that it was Qiu Chan who had summoned her to rescue her.

Mu Tusu drove away from the wooden platform, and took Bai Zhi away in public.The crowd also remained silent.No one in Su City knows Mu Tusu!And Mu Tusu publicly stated that Bai Zhi is his woman, how dare they touch her?

The mammy standing on the wooden platform had weak legs, and knelt on the wooden board, stiff.

Bai Zhi asked Mu Tusu to take her back to the White Mansion, but Mu Tusu did not do so.Bai Zhi shouted: "Let me get off the horse."

Mu Tusu carried her directly to the ten-mile slope in the suburbs of the city, and dropped her on the spot.Qiu Chan, who had caught up with them, got off her horse and helped Bai Zhi untie the rope.

While untying the rope, Qiu Chan muttered: "Zhi'er, you are so prone to tire gas, don't get angry." Then Qiu Chan looked at Mu Tusu, "My son, Zhi'er is pregnant, why did you throw her down so rudely?" !"

Mutusu's eyes never left Bai Zhi, and he said to Qiu Chan: "Qiu Chan, you go back first, I want to chat with Zhi'er."

How dare Qiu Chan refuse to follow the prince's orders, even though she was very curious about what they were talking about... She winked at Bai Zhi, then got on her horse and left in awe.In the fragrance of soil and flowers and plants, the autumn wind blows occasionally, which is cold.

Mu Tusu cut to the chase: "Whose is the child?"

"Don't worry about it." Bai Zhi turned her face away, not wanting to explain to him.

Mutusu approached, pinched her chin with one hand, and forced her to face himself: "I'll ask again, whose child is it?"

Bai Zhi stared at him stubbornly, unable to speak.

"Would you rather be burned than name the man?"

Mu Tusu obviously didn't understand the situation. When he arrived, her life was hanging by a thread. He didn't know that those conservatives only wanted her to die, and never listened to her explanation, let alone who her adulterer was.

"Very good." Mutusu gritted his teeth and endured, but the strength of his hand that squeezed her chin increased.Bai Zhi couldn't help but frowned in pain.

"Is that man worthy of your love? He can watch you die, and he is unwilling to save you. You still hide such a man?" Mu Tusu's eyes were burning.Bai Zhi was worried that in the next moment, she might be strangled to death by Mu Tusu.

Seeing Bai Zhi's dull look, Mu Tusu tightly closed his eyes, and loosened his grip on her chin.He suddenly felt powerless.

Bai Zhi untied the rope on her body, stood up and brushed off the dirt and weeds on her body, preparing to leave.She just took a step, Mutusu reached out with his long arm, and firmly held her into his arms.He buried his head in Bai Zhi's neck, deeply...

Bai Zhi struggled, even punched and kicked her, but Mu Tusu still held her motionless.

"Mutusu!" Bai Zhi was slightly sullen.

"Don't let go." Mu Tusu hugged him even tighter, the metal armor he was wearing was hard, making Bai Zhi extremely uncomfortable.

"Mutusu, men and women are different, show some respect." Bai Zhi pushed him hard, and finally pushed him away.With too much force, Bai Zhi was out of breath, and continued to stare at Tu Su unhappily.

Mu Tusu said: "I am willing to be the father of the child."

"..."

Mu Tusu continued: "No matter who you have in mind, that man will let you go regardless of life and death, it is unreliable. In addition, the whole city knows that you are my woman, so it's better to go with the flow and make it happen in one go."

"Your Majesty, do you still want Bai Zhi to die in front of you?" Bai Zhi replied very calmly.

"You do not dare."

"Why?"

"You are pregnant, are you willing to kill two lives?"

"Be willing." Bai Zhi looked at Mutusu seriously, with a firmness in her eyes that cannot be ignored.

Seeing her death-defying expression, Mu Tusu felt as if his heart had been stabbed severely.She detested him so much that she would not want to be with him even if she died, even when she was desperate.

"Why do you hate me so much?" Mutusu asked in despair.

Bai Zhi replied: "The prince is joking, how dare Bai Zhi hate the prince? It's just that the prince is too noble, and Bai Zhi can't afford it."

"Don't use this as an excuse." Mu Tusu frowned.

Bai Zhi curled her lips, this was the excuse she kept giving herself, the excuse she didn't dare to face Mu Tusu.He asked her to make another excuse, but she couldn't find it.She still answered casually: "I have another love, I don't love you, is that enough as an excuse?"

Mu Tusu smiled, raised her chin, and looked at her with burning eyes: "I know you don't love me, but I love you. You just need to accept my love, huh?"

Bai Zhi suddenly opened her eyes wide and looked at him.

He actually... unexpectedly said the exact same words as what she had said in her dream.

A scene from her dream was circling in her mind.

In the dream, she married him for only a few days, and he received the imperial decree that Nanzhao invaded Xishu, a small country allied with the Guanghui Dynasty, and the Holy One sent him to lead troops to support it.He left in a hurry.At that moment, Bai Zhi was only thinking about Mu Tusu, and she was so sick of thinking about the king that she went to Xishu to look for him with her bags on her back.

The journey was full of dangers, but luckily all ended in safety, and she successfully arrived at Mu Tusu's camp stationed in the West Shu Kingdom.She still remembered how surprised Mu Tusu was when he first saw her, and he scolded her in a reproachful tone.But she smiled like a flower: "I know you don't love me, but I love you. You just need to accept my love. I miss you, so I came to see you."

He only said: "Crazy woman."

She is crazy, she is crazy in love with this man, the man she has loved all her life.

After waking up from the dream, Bai Zhi heard this familiar words, panicked, pushed Mu Tusu away, went straight to the horse, sat on it, and galloped away.She wants to run away and never get close to Mu Tusu again, that is a terrible man!

With a whistle, the horse suddenly turned around and ran towards Mutusu.He was looking at her with a smile on his face.Bai Zhi only felt that she was constantly approaching him, getting closer, getting closer...

She obviously wanted to stay away from him.

The steed suddenly stopped in front of Mu Tusu, with his ass raised high, Bai Zhi was forced off the horse's back by the horse, and rushed straight to Mu Tusu in front of him.

that's it……
