(21) Impulsive punishment
(21) Impulse punishment
After all, Bai Yunqi has been emphasizing his identity, and his purpose is to hope that the women will discover this essential difference and make a request to improve Linglong's identity. Bai Yunqi followed another step and everything would come naturally.
It’s a pity that the five women were slow to react and still couldn’t understand it. Bai Yunqi looked at Shui Ruoyun who was still kneeling on the ground and continued, “Ruoyun, get up! I have already said that I won’t blame you!”
Shui Ruoyun hesitated for a moment before saying, "Thank you for your kindness, but since Linglong is guilty, then the lowly position is guilty, and the merits and demerits cannot be offset. The emperor should clearly distinguish between rewards and punishments so that he can block the long-lasting mouths of all people and convince all officials!"
Bai Yunqi cursed Shui Ruoyun in his heart: "Why are you just forcing me like this? You are really mean to be a fool. You have to defend Linglong with your own crime. I am doing a show! I really don't know if you should say you are smart or stupid, or bet that I will not blame you for this matter!"
After thinking about it, Bai Yunqi still said seriously: "Shui Ruoyun, are you threatening me and forcing me to punish you? Do you dare to disobey the imperial edict?"
The tone was already extremely bad. The four girls of Xue Feihong did not dare to speak at this time. In the past few years, they had never seen Bai Yunqi treat her and others so severely. Shui Ruoyun lowered her head and did not speak, thinking in her heart how to speak. Shui Ruoyun is a woman with all-round talent in civil and military affairs. Of course, this move is not to be willing to punish herself in a daze and loyal manner. She is the first among the girls to suspect Bai Yunqi's punishment of Linglong's intention. So she had this trick to test it, but at this time she felt a little uncertain.
"You speak! Do you want to disobey the imperial edict?" Bai Yunqi suddenly glared and stood up. He slapped the armrest of the chair with a palm. Suddenly, a force bounced away the four women's snow-fruit-red who were leaning against the chair, causing the surprise of the four women. Then the sound of bricks breaking. When he looked down, he found that a square brick under the chair slowly cracked, and the crack gradually became larger. Finally, the whole square brick turned into a grainy shape. This situation immediately scared everyone. No one could understand why Bai Yunqi was so angry.
Shui Ruoyun was naturally shocked. Bai Yunqi, who was not very arrogant in front of the girls, was so angry today. Shui Ruoyun would not be so stupid as to persevere. Anyway, Linglong would not be in danger of life. Just as she thought of this, Shui Ruoyun saw Bai Yunqi's glaring eyes, but her heart was a little confused: "I dare not be humble! Thank you Lord for your kindness!"
Maybe Bai Yunqi would really take Linglong's life. Bai Yunqi was relieved at this moment, thinking that Shui Ruoyun was really difficult to deal with, and he had to really take out his anger to surrender. He was really a woman with a strong mind.
At this moment, the five women didn't know what to say to plead for Linglong. Bai Yunqi put away his anger, looked back at the four women, took a deep breath, and barely pretended to be smiling and said, "Several wives, let's not talk about Linglong's affairs. Today, for your husband, you are not in a good mood. How about you accompany your husband to the imperial garden to sit?"
The four women were influenced by Bai Yunqi's momentum just now and no longer wanted to plead for Linglong. They thought that it would be no longer too late to accompany Bai Yunqi to let Bai Yunqi calm down. They had to agree and take Shui Ruoyun, and the six of them walked out of Bai Yunqi's bedroom and walked towards the Imperial Garden.
Along the way, he talked about some romance and no point. After finally Bai Yunqi looked nothing, Qingqing dared to ask: "Brother Qi, what are you...what are you going to deal with Linglong?"
Bai Yunqi would never forget this matter. He pretended to think for a while before saying, "They forced to break into the palace as civilians. This is a great crime of disrespect. In addition, he was watching the secret military articles. It is not an exaggeration to say that those who were nine tribes and ten tribes were killed. However, after all, they wanted to go out of the same school as Feihong. I would like to consider whether they should not destroy their Meishan faction and kill them alone."
"But... they just found out that something was urgent, so they had to do that!" Qingqing defended.
Bai Yunqi's face suddenly became cold and he glanced at Qingqing: "So what? It's a big deal. They are civilians who can walk freely in the palace are a great gift. How can they knock the guards out without notice and break in? If the officials report urgently, or if the royal relatives come to me, they can only break to the door if the situation is urgent. How can they knock the guards out and break into the room?"
Jiang Wendi hurriedly said, "They just broke into the door. It was me, I asked them to come in!"
In order to protect Linglong's life, Jiang Wendi did not hesitate to lie and deceive the emperor. Bai Yunqi sighed secretly, but did not point it out. She just said "Oh" softly, without saying anything.
"Is that...can they be saved from death?" Jiang Wendi asked tentatively.
"That's not OK. Even if you just break into the door of the bedroom, you will be disrespectful. Who are they? A commoner, unless they have the Shangfang sword or the gold medal for death given by me, I can spare their lives. It's a pity that I haven't sent out these things yet. Otherwise, except for the loyal ministers or my relatives, the rest of them will be killed without any hesitation."
Bai Yunqi secretly complained, and the matter was settled, and he had already said it so clearly. These women were obviously like ghosts, but they just couldn't recognize the meaning of the words. It was really annoying. This is the real thing that doesn't matter, but it's a mess!
As he was speaking, a guard suddenly ran over: "Your Majesty, the female hero in Meishan asked for a meeting."
It was really not a good time, and again, Bai Yunqi complained secretly. He hadn't visited Meishan for a while, but he just didn't want to face Meishan's embarrassment that shouldn't have. At this time, Meishan must have been Su Xiangyun's voice. Meishan came for the sake of Lingqing, Bai Yunqi had to say: "Xuan!"
The guard turned around to pass the message. Soon, in the distance between the corridor, Meishan slowly walked up with the help of two palace maids from the Daozun Sect. When he got close, he wanted to bow his body to salute. Bai Yunqi said casually, "Don't give a gift, the Meishan female hero is injured, so there is no need to be polite! Is there anything wrong? Sit down and sit down before talking."
At this time, Meishan's face was a little pale and his body was still very weak. A pity that showed a pity between his eyebrows. The righteous face covered with a layer of peaceful and peaceful beauty in such a pathological state.
"Caomin..." Meishan sat down, looked at the people around Baiyun, and said hesitantly: "Caomin wants to talk to the emperor alone."
Bai Yunqi was stunned. The girls also knew that Meishan should have come for Lingqing. Before Bai Yunqi could speak, they were about to leave. In a moment, the people in the imperial garden left a clear light, leaving only Bai Yunqi and Meishan sitting opposite each other in the pavilion.
Bai Yunqi didn't want this scene to happen. He didn't have to choose such a scene just now, but he also understood that as long as Meishan was not dead, this was something that Bai Yunqi had to face.
Looking at Meishan's haggard face, Bai Yunqi felt a faint remorse in his heart. A considerable part of this pale face may have a responsibility. As he thought in his heart, Bai Yunqi's hand moved slightly and was shocked to realize his movements. Bai Yunqi quickly stopped and stretched out his hand and placed it on the stone table in the pavilion. He wanted to reach out to touch Meishan's slightly messy hair on his forehead.
"Emperor, Caomin has been saved by the emperor and has not been able to thank him. I am here to thank the emperor for his kindness!" Meishan said as he was about to get up and kneel down again. Bai Yunqi hurriedly stood up and held Meishan and said, "Everyone said don't be too polite. If you have anything to say, just say that, haha, when there is no one else, just think I am Bai Qi in the past."
When his body contacted, Meishan couldn't help but trembled, raised his head and stared at Bai Yunqi. With Bai Yunqi's support, Bai Yunqi was also a little nervous. After Meishan sat down, he also returned to his seat. Meishan then said, "The grass-roots dare not!"
After a while, Bai Yunqi held his head with his hands and looked at the teacup on the table. The cup was clear and clean. The floor was wiped clean by the palace maids. Meishan also looked at the table and was silent for a long time. The atmosphere was extremely awkward.
The flowers are everywhere in the imperial garden. In the flowers not far away, insects are passing through in groups of three or three. Meishan finally spoke, but it sounds so far in Baiyunqi's ears, it seems to be from another space: "Do you still remember the riverside seven years ago?"
This sentence is like a thunderstorm, causing Bai Yunqi to buzz. The scene from many years ago appeared before her. Bai Yunqi's head finally raised, Meishan in front of her looked at the distance behind Bai Yunqi's feet calmly, and that gaze fell into memories in distant places.
"After that time, I got pregnant!"
Thunders exploded one by one, and the clear sky slowly drifted in the story of Meishan. Thunder roared in the dark clouds and came from afar, which shocked the white clouds and shocked the surprise and shock in their hearts.
"What did you say?" Bai Yunqi stood up, holding the table tightly with his hands, looking at Meishan's calm expression.
Meishan looked at Bai Yunqi and said slowly: "It's a son, he should be six years old now!"
Suddenly, Bai Yunqi clanged the edge of the stone table, and it was crushed by Bai Yunqi for a little bit. Meishan's words made Bai Yunqi too excited. He came to his senses a little and let go of his hand. The gravel slid from his hand. Meishan watched him sit down again with a pressure on his emotions, without any fluctuations in his eyes, and continued her next sentence.
"After I got pregnant, I hid in the mountains. I had thought of aborting him, but I couldn't bear it, so I gave birth to him, but I couldn't raise him. At first I hated him!" When Meishan said this, a slight fluctuation finally appeared in his eyes. It was hatred. Looking at Baiyunqi, his eyes were full of hatred.
Bai Yunqi closed his eyes in pain. This evil fate was impulsive and the debt that Bai Yunqi owed was not spoken. He knew that Meishan must have something to do, and he even guessed that this should have something to do with Linglong. Otherwise, when he thought of his death, Meishan might not have said this.
"Because of hatred, I don't want to raise him. I named him Hentian, Bai Hentian, Bai Qi, does this name sound good?" Meishan's eyes looked at Bai Yunqi and waved another slight fluctuation. The cold wind blew along with the dark clouds, blew into the pavilion, causing Mei Shan's body to tremble. Bai Yunqi quickly stood up and took off his shawl to put on Mei Shan.
"Does it sound good?" Meishan looked up at Baiyunqi. Meishan was completely different from Meishan in the past. Her eyes and expressions showed a kind of sigh and helplessness, and a hint of helplessness. Yes, after so many years, she should have thought a lot about what happened seven years ago. In seven years, she changed from a chaste virgin to a mother. Her relationship has become much more mature, and the woman's emotions are becoming more and more intense.
Bai Yunqi closed his eyes again, put one hand on Meishan's weak shoulders, and followed Bai Yunqi's movements, Mei Shan snuggled his head to Bai Yunqi's chest without resistance.
"I'm sorry! I've been suffering for you! It's all Bai Qi!" Bai Yunqi said softly.
The two of them who were embarrassed and even hated were destroyed because they had a child between them and they had lost all their past. At this time, they were like couples who had met again for a long time. Although there was actually no relationship or understanding between them, because of a child, all this was no longer important.
"Sorry? Humph, no need. After having hatred, my mood changed a lot. Perhaps, this is all God's will. God's will made me so cruel in the past. God's will want you to do that to me. God's will makes you a great hero and a wise king. In the end, I can't find a reason to hate you." Meishan was eight or nine years older than Bai Yunqi, and was younger than Xue Yiran's wife. Seven years ago, she was in her thirties, and Bai Yunqi is still young and strong. Even if Meishan takes good care of her, she is still a middle-aged woman in her thirties. But this age gap seems to have been forgotten at this moment. Meishan's voice was very calm, without any emotional fluctuations. Her head leaned gently on Bai Yunqi's belly, and her eyes were so peacefully looking at the depths of memory.
Bai Yunqi sat down beside Meishan and slowly hugged Meishan into his arms. At some point, Meishan's eyes were filled with tears. Bai Yunqi gently wiped it. He had forgotten everything before. He only knew that in front of him was a miserable woman who had suffered for seven years because of him and had given birth to a son for himself, a poor woman.
In this era, unlike Bai Yunqi's previous life, once a woman is pregnant but has no husband, almost everyone will not pity her. She will consider her as a water-like poplar and a lewd woman, and thus despise her. Bai Yunqi knows this very well.
Bai Yunqi sighed softly: "I was also angry at the time. It was a sin to make you pregnant, but you can come to me? Bai Yunqi will not only care about his reputation and the children in your belly. The facts have been caused, and I will not be afraid of what others say."
