The king was wrong

"Your majesty... this old servant is bold, I don't know if the letter from the family sent back by the prince...is it going to be sent to the princess?"

Ji Hong hesitated again and again, thinking of Princess Yong who is suffering in the sky prison and Prince Yong who is fighting thousands of miles away but doesn't even know what happened in the capital, he couldn't bear to ignore this family letter .

"Um……"

Sure enough, Wei Chengtian's face turned cold when he heard this.

He casually took the thin letter paper with "Yao Qing's letter" on it from the side of the desk, weighed it, opened it and glanced twice, finally put the letter paper back, handed it to Ji Hong, and said: "That's fine." , It’s just a letter, nothing left or right, how about it, you go to the prison and take this letter to him.”

After a pause, he suddenly laughed at himself again, and said, "Oh, I didn't expect my younger brother to be such an infatuated one. If Qi Yaoqing is really thinking about him, he must know what to do."

"The old slave thanked the emperor on behalf of the princess."

Ji Hong bowed respectfully, and took the envelope, which was originally sealed, but it was destroyed when Wei Chengtian opened it for inspection.Wei Chengtian naturally didn't care about these little details, but after thinking about it for a while, Ji Hong went to find some glue to glue the envelope back together, and then put it in his arms like a baby, and hurried to the prison.

"Cough, why is my father-in-law here again on this snowy day? It's cold in the prison, and my father-in-law is getting older. I... cough, I shouldn't run like this again."

The dungeon was as damp and cold as ever, and because of the snow, it added a bit of bitter chill.Qi Yaoqing sat cross-legged on the cushion, seeing Ji Honglai with a hint of surprise on his face.

Although he was wearing a thick snow fox fur cloak, he still couldn't stand the cold air surrounding him for a long time. He had a slight cough these days and his complexion was not very good.

He already knew that his body was not strong, so he really caught the wind and cold, and he coughed twice and didn't think it was a big deal.But this made Ying Si very anxious. Not only did he deliver medicine every day, but he also invited the doctors to the sky prison, which made his prison still smell of bitter medicine to this day.

"It's really cold, and it's going to be nine soon. The princess is suffering here."

Ji Hong asked the guard to open the cell door and walked in. When he saw Qi Yaoqing's pale and thinner face, he rubbed his hands together in embarrassment, and said apologetically to Qi Yaoqing.

"Father-in-law is polite." Qi Yaoqing smiled and shook his head, as if he didn't care about what he suffered here.

"What's the father-in-law here today?" When Ji Hong sat down on the soft cushion of his case, Qi Yaoqing reached out to pour him a glass of water and asked.

Ji Hong took the cup with both hands, nodded his thanks, and then said: "To tell you the truth, my concubine, I really have two things to tell you about my visit this time."

"One is that a few days ago, the abolished Empress Qi hanged herself in the cold palace."

Knowing that Qi Yaoqing has never had any relationship with his nominal sister, Ji Hong didn't avoid anything when he said this, and said truthfully: "Because the Qi family has been abolished, and he died by hanging himself in fear of crime, it is reasonable not to enter the imperial tomb. You can only enter the imperial concubine's mausoleum. Originally, the concubine did not need to know all these things, but the old slave wanted to say that the queen was your sister, so I came to inform you, concubine...sorry."

Qi Yao sat quietly, staring at the teacup on the table in front of him, and didn't speak for a while.

What can he mourn?This elder sister Qi Songjin has never really recognized his younger brother. If she died first this time, I'm afraid she will be sad on the face, and I don't know how to be relieved in her heart.But now the other way around, she was defeated first, and then hanged herself, what he heard was numb.

It doesn't matter if the rabbit dies or the fox is sad, or it doesn't matter if you are really sad, if your life is gone, what else can you not let go of?

"My father and the others...do you know about this?" After a long silence, Qi Yaoqing raised his head and asked Ji Hongdao.

"Well, I have already sent someone to tell you. I heard that Madam fainted when she heard the news, and she woke up crying bitterly. Grand Duke... Although he didn't show it too obviously, he was still sad when he thought about it. As for the son, Since being imprisoned, the whole person has been a little sluggish, and this time I just cried, nothing else."

Their reactions were all within Qi Yaoqing's expectations, so they didn't show any expression after listening, and just nodded slightly.

"The empress... the abolished empress has always been their greatest hope, and they are close relatives of flesh and blood. Sadness is for sure." Is it almost the day?"

"Well, what the Holy Majesty means is to wait until this winter is over, and then leave Beijing after the year." Ji Hong replied.

"That's it." Qi Yaoqing pursed his lips, "The father-in-law knows... as for me, should I leave Beijing with them or..."

Qi Yaoqing stopped abruptly before finishing his sentence.His status is embarrassing, and Wei Yanxi is tied behind his back, which is definitely not as easy to solve as Qi Xiaosu and the others.

If the march went smoothly, it is estimated that Wei Yanxi would have returned from a big victory a few years ago. If he had stayed in the sky prison in the middle of the capital at that time, it would be no wonder that Prince Yiyong's temper would not have trampled down the entire sky prison.

And if he is sent to the frontier before the rest of the Qi family...

Qi Yaoqing shook his head, as long as he was still alive in this world, Wei Yanxi would never give up looking for him, and would even look for him at the risk of completely turning against the emperor.I'm afraid that before the others reach the border, Prince Yong, who returned triumphantly, will follow him to the border.

Ji Hong was stunned when he heard the words, then smiled awkwardly, touched his nose, but didn't make a sound.

How could he answer? Could it be that the emperor said bluntly that the emperor separated you from the rest of the Qi family to guard them. They were imprisoned in ordinary prisons, but you were imprisoned in a heaven where only serious criminals and death row criminals would be? In the prison, it is clear that they want to separate you from them so that they can take your life anytime and anywhere?

There are some things that I know very well, but I still can't say them in the end.

Seeing his embarrassment, Qi Yaoqing didn't force him to answer, and stretched out the portable jug to help him add a glass of water, and asked, "By the way, my father-in-law just said there is one more thing, what is it?"

He kindly changed the subject, Ji Hong naturally accepted the situation, and hurriedly took out Wei Yanxi's letter from his sleeve with a smile, and handed it to Qi Yaoqing.

"Princess, my lord sent you a letter two days ago while delivering the battle report. The old slave brought it to you. Would you like to see it?"

When Qi Yaoqing heard that it was Wei Yanxi's letter, Qi Yaoqing was stunned for a moment, his originally expressionless face was a little loose, and he took it suspiciously, and sure enough, he saw four familiar words written on it: "Yaoqing kisses you."

The pen is like a dragon and snake, but it is scribbled but still imposing, which faintly shows the master's courage, and it really is Wei Yanxi's handwriting.

Just seeing these four words, Qi Yaoqing felt his nose sore, and his eye sockets became hot as well, as if something wanted to come out of it, but he pressed it back.

He couldn't wait to open the envelope, not paying attention to the glue stains on the envelope seal that hadn't dried in time. He pulled out the two thin sheets of letter paper inside, unfolded them, and read them by the dim candle light on the desk.

I saw that it said:

It's been more than a few months since I left in a hurry, my love.It's bitter cold in the north, and I heard that there is also snow and rain in Kyoto, can you be safe?

When Beidi came to attack, the drums could not be stopped, the armor could not be removed, and the day and night were indistinguishable.However, Qing disturbs my thinking every day, sleeps in my dreams every night, the belt gradually widens, and I don’t regret it at the end. I am haggard because of Yixiao. Now I think about it, but that’s all.

The battle is victorious, and it will return soon. You can remember that you once swore under the stone of the city gate, waiting for me to come back from the Thousand Crane Tower?

I only hope that when I return to Japan next spring, I can see Qingqing smiling.

I hope you will be safe.

It was just a few words, but Qi Yaoqing could no longer hold back the tears, and crawled down her pale cheeks.His thin lips were bitten tightly by his teeth, and there was no blood in the first place, but now they are as pale as his face.

Wei Yanxi misses him!

With this cognition firmly established, Qi Yaoqing didn't know whether it was sadness or joy in his heart.The happy thing is that he did not make a mistake with his sincerity, and Wei Yanxi is indeed worthy of his love, but the sad thing is that he knows that in his current situation, it is impossible to wait until the day when he comes back, not to mention meeting again on the Thousand Crane Tower, but I'm afraid that seeing the previous side from afar is an extravagant wish.

Qi Yaoqing buried his head extremely low, trying hard not to let Ji Hong notice his strangeness, but the wet and trembling eyelashes and the small water spots blurred by tears on the letter paper betrayed him.

Even though Ji Hong had been in the palace for many years, he was used to seeing the intriguing harem and the tears shed by concubines who had not been favored for a long time when they met the emperor.

Obviously they are thinking about each other, but because of this life background, they have to be separated abruptly. I don't know what kind of mood Prince Yong was in when he wrote this letter. He hopes to come back from the battle as soon as possible and embrace the princess again. Are you pregnant?

Sitting alone, Ji Hong lamented the impermanence of the world, opposite, Qi Yaoqing had already settled his mood, raised his eyes again, his face was still gentle and harmless, but his eyes were slightly red and swollen.

"Thank you, father-in-law... ahem, bring the letter for me."

Qi Yaoqing put down the letter paper in his hand, and with this posture, he bowed his head to Ji Hong in a dignified way.

"Ouch, the princess can't do this!"

Ji Hong was overwhelmed by the flattery, and hurriedly leaned over and reached out to support Qi Yaoqing to prevent him from bowing any longer.

"It was originally a letter sent to you by the lord, and this old slave just helped to bring it. It's nothing. The princess's politeness really offends this old slave."

Qi Yaoqing knew that Eunuch Ji was not a person who cared about vain etiquette, so he didn't hold back any more, and he helped him up, so he followed suit.

"Although I said so, I am currently in jail and I am a criminal minister. I really dare not expect to see the letter from the prince. My father-in-law took the trouble to persuade the emperor to bring it for me. I am naturally grateful in my heart. "

Ji Hong originally didn't plan to tell Qi Yaoqing about Wei Chengtian, but Qi Yao's heart is as clear as a mirror, so how can he not understand the twists and turns?So his gratitude is indeed sincere.

Ji Hong smiled, "Wangfei can understand that the old slave's troubles are worth it. Wangfei, do you want to write a reply letter to the prince and let the old slave take it back?"

Hearing that he could write a reply, Qi Yaoqing was stunned for a while, and then nodded clearly.In Wei Yanxi's heart, he should still be waiting for him to return in triumph in the palace right now, since he is in the palace, how could he not reply?

If they want to continue to keep Wei Yanxi at ease, they must write a reply letter by themselves.

Qi Yaoqing sighed softly, but there was a slight smile on the corner of his lips. It's okay, this was also his plan.

He pulled the oil lamp closer, took out a flat piece of letter paper, picked up the pen, and dropped it.

"Don't you see, Baixue and Binghe connects the Northland, for whom do you want to express love. Yanxi, the years are rushing, and the winter snow is the proof, the palace is still the same, and the people are the same..."
