Chapter 188: The lord, a major event in the state of Zhao(2/2)
At that time, they discussed sending people to deliberately prevent Hou Qing. The right prime minister was not there, but afterwards he did not agree with the matter. Instead, he frowned, and according to his words—
"If you directly chose to send someone to intercept him, it would be much better than stopping him from returning to Zhao State. Unfortunately, you didn't do this."
And he heard the same words again, but this time, it was from a woman who he thought did not understand the regime.
He stared at her in a daze and asked subconsciously.
"Why do you say that?"
Chen Baiqi shook his head and commented with a pertinent opinion: "As for Houqing, since he has done it, you might as well do it, because in his eyes there is no such word. Qin State missed the best time to kill him, and what he would be to hold a grudge and fight back without mercy."
Ji Ying didn't understand: "You... you have not taken care of Hou Qing's life and death. You protect him in the palace, and he treats you differently. Why can you be so cold and ruthless when you mention his life and death now?"
"It's just a matter of fact."
Looking at her back walking into Shouning Palace, Ji Ying looked a little dazed and didn't know what she was thinking.
——
After Chen Baiqi entered Shouning Palace, there was no one around him, and she showed some real emotions. She walked forward without thinking.
After seeing Si Jiang waiting for her under the eaves, she became solemn, pulled him into the room, and closed the door. She said, "I just got the news from Ji Ying that the King of Zhao was imprisoned by his son, Prince Yu. After returning to Zhao, Houqing forced himself to break into Handan but was shot in an arrow without knowing life and death. You say that if his father was with him, then his father's current situation..."
Si Jiang didn't expect that she would bring back such exciting news at the same time as she came back.
"Can Ji Ying believe what he said? Is there any latest news from the witch clan?"
Chen Baiqi said: "No, Qin State got the news that King Zhao was imprisoned one step earlier than Houqing, so he had arranged for the scout to sneak into Handan, so the news would naturally be sent back faster."
"You don't have to worry. When I heard that Qing forced himself to break into Handan, I felt something was wrong. He has such deep feelings for the King of Zhao? For him, he can break through without regard for life and death?"
"I think so too, but I shouldn't have told my father to let him go if he encounters something. Now if my father gets involved in the matter of Zhao State, how should he get out?" Chen Baiqi said sadly.
"You don't know that all the things that happened next, don't think too much, let alone blame yourself." Si Jiang hurriedly comforted her.
Chen Baiqi pondered for a moment, and she asked him: "Do you still have one or two things that my father had used by you?"
Si Jiang thought for a while: "It's the same. When he disguised himself as a hairpin, he felt it was not suitable, so he took it off and kept it for him for the time being."
"I'm useful if you take it."
Si Jiang nodded and went out to get things. After a while, he came back and handed her a hairpin.
Chen Baiqi took the hairpin and closed his eyes to sense it. A sacred silver emblem seal appeared between her forehead, Wu Bu. Her talented skills could only be relied on passive perception at first, but as she used it skillfully, she gradually gained insights and could occasionally take the initiative to trigger it.
She concentrated on her attention, and circles of water-ripped luster floated on her body. Si Jiang was excited and surprised when she watched.
"What you want is the place where you are trapped will eventually be clear."
She uttered a word from her mouth, and then suddenly opened her eyes. When she thought of Bu Yan just now, she pursed it carefully.
"What you ask for is peace."
"A place where he is trapped, an ignorant person in trouble means his father, and he will eventually become clear. In this way, he is safe and sound at present, and will not suffer any unscathing because of the Queen."
Since Wu Bu's words were auspicious, she could calm down for the time being.
"It's so amazing, this witch clan's divination technique!" Si Jiang surrounded her in surprise.
