Just as Bai Chi had thought, after breakfast, he was discussing with Xie Yunxiao whether they should draw lots or let Dabai and Erbai choose for themselves when the prince arrived.
As expected, after hearing that Bai Chi was injured, he went to see Bai Chi on behalf of his father, mother, and grandmother as soon as the court was over.
When I heard it was just a misunderstanding, I was both amused and confused, but I did keep all the gifts I brought.
When he left, he just reminded the palace's steward to keep a close eye on the servants' mouths.
During the last morning court session, the news that Prince Xian was injured and that he and the general stayed overnight in Prince Xian's mansion had almost spread throughout the capital.
Prince Xian is tolerant and never beats or scolds his servants, but that doesn't mean the emperor and the crown prince allow their servants to be so unruly!
If anyone leaks this news from outside the mansion again, everyone will be replaced!
The housekeeper was so frightened that his face turned pale, but Bai Chi was already drawing lots.
He asked Xie Yunxiao to cover his eyes with a black cloth, and then, when Xie Yunxiao couldn't see anything, he asked Xie Yunxiao to shuffle the order of the drawings and pick them up one by one.
Every time you take a card, you ask Baichi if he wants it, and Baichi randomly chooses whether to take it or not.
Today, Bai Chi was wearing a white fox fur coat with a furry collar, which made her already fair skin look even more like jade.
A black cloth was tied behind her head, and there was a smile on the corners of her lips. Even though her eyes were covered, one could imagine that the smiling fox's eyes must be full of life.
Xie Yunxiao fiddled with the drawings in his hand randomly according to Bai Chi's instructions, but he couldn't take his eyes off Bai Chi's face.
Especially since he took advantage of the fact that the other party couldn't see, he stared at him blatantly. Even when he was selecting the drawings, he didn't even look at them.
He picked up a drawing and knocked it over without Xie Yunxiao noticing.
"Do you want this?"
He shook his head slightly: "No."
Okay, no, just throw it away and change it.
"Do you want this?"
Prince Xian has a really beautiful mouth, especially when he speaks, it opens and closes, making it impossible to look away.
"don't want."
Throw it away and replace it.
"Do you want this?"
The King of Idleness also has a pleasant voice, clear and bright, with a hint of nonchalant laziness.
"don't want."
Throw it away and replace it.
"Do you want this?"
Prince Xian has a good figure. Although he was drunk last night, he still remembers clearly the scene of holding Prince Xian in his arms. When he leaned in his arms, the charming fragrance hit him before the person.
"don't want."
Keep throwing, keep changing.
"Do you want this?"
It turns out that Your Majesty and the Crown Prince were right not to let Prince Xian attend court. Such a handsome and charming Prince Xian should be kept in pampered condition. How could he do such laborious and tiring work that requires getting up at the hour of Yin?
"No……"
It wasn't until the eighth picture that Bai Chi finally nodded and said that this was it. Xie Yunxiao instantly regained his senses and forced himself to put away his increasingly obsessed gaze and quickly put away the drawings that he had not wanted before.
Bai Chi seemed to have noticed nothing. He casually untied the cloth in front of him and walked briskly to Xie Yunxiao.
"That's it? Great, I don't have to worry about which one to choose."
She casually handed it to the waiting maid and said, "Have someone build a nest in the tree in the backyard that can accommodate two adult Saker Falcons."
The maid hurried down to give instructions, but Bai Chi looked at Xie Yunxiao again.
"To thank you, General, I have ordered some wine and food at Cui Yu Xuan. General, please don't refuse."
How could Xie Yunxiao be reluctant to refuse? It took him less than a day to figure out Bai Chi's thoughts, and now he was eager to be closer to Bai Chi for a while longer.
He immediately nodded and agreed: "Then I'd better obey your command. It just so happens that I just drank with the prince last night and haven't had enough."
Bai Chi laughed heartily and said happily, "Well, it's still early. I will accompany the general back to the palace to change clothes. After all, these are guard clothes. It's not appropriate for the general to go out wearing them."
Xie Yunxiao thought to himself, there was nothing inappropriate about it. He had worn all kinds of tattered clothes during the war.
But when she heard Bai Chi say that he wanted to accompany her back, she nodded immediately, as if she was not going to accompany him home to change clothes, but to go back with him to meet his parents-in-law.
Bai Chi saw it and laughed in his heart. He looked like a piece of wood, but he was actually quite quick in understanding.
When I was choosing the blueprints just now, I was staring at him with eyes that almost made me see sparks.
Fortunately, he had his back to the maid, so she didn't see him.
Of course, even if they saw it, it wouldn't matter. At most, they would just tell their brother the emperor and the queen mother as soon as possible.
The two of them first went to feed the two Saker Falcons, and then went out together chatting and laughing. Bai Chi was still leaning on his walking stick, but Xie Yunxiao's eyes kept looking at his feet while he was talking.
The look was too obvious, and Bai Chi couldn't pretend not to see it, so he could only ask him actively.
"General, why are you always looking at my foot? This injury hasn't happened for a day or two. Didn't the general know about it before?"
Xie Yunxiao quickly shook his head: "I know."
He was already thirteen years old at that time, so of course he knew.
He paused for a moment and then continued, "My father lost his arm at that time. Every winter is very difficult to endure. If it rains on other days, the wound will also be very uncomfortable."
Then he looked back at Bai Chi's leg: "Does your injury hurt, my Lord?"
So that's how it is. Bai Chi's eyes became even gentler. "It's okay for me. After all, it's just a broken tendon. The Marquis has lost half of his arm. It must be much more painful."
Xie Yunxiao nodded. "When I was fighting, I seized a batch of specially made medicinal wine. It's said to be rare in the Central Plains and has miraculous effects on old injuries like this. I'll bring some back for His Majesty when I return."
Not all spoils of war had to be turned over. Generals and soldiers could keep some for themselves, and as long as they were not excessive, no one would pursue the matter.
After all, they risked their lives for this.
Naturally, Xie Yunxiao kept those jars of specially made medicinal wine.
Bai Chi did not refuse Xie Yunxiao's kindness.
"Thank you very much, General. However, you don't need too much. My wound is not big. Leave some for the Marquis. I will ask the imperial physician to take a look and maybe he can make a better one."
After saying that, he couldn't help but laugh again, also to comfort Xie Yunxiao.
"If it's really useful, even if the imperial physician can't find it, we can send someone to the border to look for it, and I'm sure they can find it."
After hearing what Bai Chi said, Xie Yunxiao nodded with relief.
However, this also reminded him of another thing.
He is now the great general of the country, and his duty is to guard the border and garrison one side.
How long can you stay in Beijing this time?
