Chapter 184 Another Test
Eunuch Gui held the box in his hands, with an awkward but polite smile on his face, and bowed directly to the two of them: "This old servant greets His Royal Highness Prince Yi and General Bai. This thing was personally selected by the Emperor, and he asked this old servant to deliver it personally. This old servant dared not neglect it, so he insisted on coming in. Please forgive me, Your Royal Highness Prince Yi."
Ouyang Yi smiled and said, "Eunuch Gui, there is no need to be so polite. Since my brother asked you to personally deliver it to me, he must have his own reasons. I just don't know... what good things did my brother bring to me this time?"
His tone was gentle, quite like that of a well-educated and sensible younger brother who waited for his brother's love and care. He understood and supported all the rude behavior of the emperor and did not care at all.
But if you think about it carefully, you will know... no matter it is Eunuch Gui who was so frightened that his face changed just now, or the emperor who insisted on meeting Ouyang Yi before giving him a gift, at this moment, they are all "judging others by one's own mean heart"!
See you all.
Eunuch Gui's face turned a little red, and it was not known whether it was due to shame or embarrassment, or because the temperature in this room was much higher than other places.
As he spoke, Bai Wei stepped forward and said, "Eunuch Gui has also seen that His Royal Highness Prince Yi is not very convenient at the moment. Can I do it for you?"
Eunuch Gui quickly handed the item over: "Of course."
Bai Wei opened the brocade box, revealing a pair of white jade Guanyin statues.
Eunuch Gui smiled and said, "The Emperor has already given the marriage decree to you two, hoping that you can live in harmony, have children soon, and expand the royal family. This pair of jade Guanyin is not an ordinary white jade Guanyin. It was obtained from Xiangguo Temple and was blessed by Master Jingyuan. It is very effective. Many people want to ask for it but cannot!"
Bai Wei held the box and smiled politely and gracefully, but she couldn't help but complain in her heart.
Don't believe him.
Not to mention that asking Bodhisattva for a child is itself a feudal superstition and is not encouraged.
The important thing is, does Ouyang Ming really want Ouyang Yi to have children?
The answer must be no.
If Ouyang Yi and she had a child, the child would also have royal blood. He is so afraid of Ouyang Yi now, won't he be afraid of his child in the future?
This white jade Guanyin might be a gift that he was sure they would not send casually in this summer resort. Otherwise, it might very well be another kind of test.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. However, Your Highness Prince Yi and I have not yet been married. This... is so embarrassing."
The voice was filled with the shyness of a young girl.
In her previous life, she was the most honest person, but she didn't expect that after traveling to the ancient times, in addition to her medical skills, she would also have to show off her acting skills at any time.
Eunuch Gui smiled brightly, with wrinkles on the corners of his eyes: "General Bai, there is no need to be so shy. This will happen sooner or later."
Ouyang Yi smiled and said, "My royal brother is very thoughtful. When my health condition improves, I will definitely come to the palace to thank him in person."
Eunuch Gui smiled and said, "Your Highness Prince Yi is too polite. The Emperor has always been thinking about you!"
Ouyang Yi nodded: "Besides the gift, does my royal brother have anything else that you want Eunuch Gui to convey to me?"
When Eunuch Gui heard this, he finally became serious and said, "There is indeed one thing."
Ouyang Yi: "What's the matter?"
Eunuch Gui said, "Yesterday, the Xiao family army was attacked in a mountain stream not far from the city."
Bai Wei stood up almost immediately: "How could this happen? Is my grandpa okay?"
Eunuch Gui said, "Prince Zhennan is fine, but... I heard that the third young general of the Xiao family was seriously injured! There are even rumors that his arm was chopped off by the enemy!"
As he spoke, he stared closely at Bai Wei's expression.
This was also the task assigned to him by Ouyang Ming, to ensure whether the two had secretly trained spies to find out what was happening around the capital.
Bai Wei was stunned for a moment, and then rushed out the next second: "No, I'm going to find them now!"
When Eunuch Gui saw that she was really going to leave, he immediately said, "General Bai, wait a minute..."
Unfortunately, just as he finished speaking, Bai Wei's wrist was grabbed by Ouyang Yi: "Wei'er, don't panic. You don't have any martial arts skills now, so you can't get anywhere fast. I'll ask Jianying to prepare the carriage and go with you."
As he spoke, he tried to get up, but he stumbled and almost fell.
Bai Wei looked at Ouyang Yi like this.
The role of this sickly prince was played quite well.
If she hadn't known his physical condition clearly, if he hadn't held him directly in his arms, using Qinggong to quickly return to the Summer Resort without blushing or feeling nervous, she would have believed that his health was really poor and that he would pass away soon.
She immediately stepped forward with a look of "worry and admiration" and immediately supported Ouyang Yi: "Your Highness, you should rest here. If you are really worried, I will take Jianying with me. I will go and take a look. I won't cause any trouble."
Ouyang Yi naturally placed his hand on the back of Bai Wei's hand, his clear and handsome eyebrows slightly frowned, making him look particularly lovable: "Then Wei'er must be careful on the road."
Eunuch Gui was just standing there watching. The room was already hot, and seeing the two people in front of him being so sweet and affectionate, he felt that the atmosphere in the room was even more suffocating. "General Bai, don't worry. The emperor received news this morning that someone had treated Major General Mingyu. His condition has improved greatly and he will be back in Beijing soon. General Bai doesn't have to go."
Bai Wei stood up and asked seriously, "Really?"
Eunuch Gui: "How dare I, an old servant, lie to you, General?"
Bai Wei smiled: "That's good."
Ouyang Yi also smiled and held Bai Wei's hand tighter: "Since there is no rush now, Wei'er can help me pack up. We will go to Zhennan Palace to meet them later, okay?"
Bai Wei nodded solemnly: "Okay."
To be honest, today's play was really tiring.
Fortunately, her opponent was Ouyang Yi, otherwise she might have laughed out loud while acting out this flustered love-brained look.
"Your Highness Prince Yi and the future princess have such a good relationship."
Eunuch Gui couldn't help but admire and grinned. But this smile made him feel hot in his nose, and when he reached out his hand, he found that his fingers were covered with blood.
He...is bleeding from the nose!
"Ah, this, this, what's going on..."
Seeing this, Bai Wei said calmly, "Eunuch Gui, there is already charcoal burning in this room, and some very spicy and dry things have been added, which is good for His Royal Highness Prince Yi's cold. However, ordinary people will become like you if they stay in there for a long time."
Eunuch Gui asked: "Then you..."
Bai Wei explained truthfully, "Before I came here, I used a lot of cold medicines, so I could just stay here with His Royal Highness Prince Yi. But Eunuch Gui doesn't have to worry too much. As long as you are not a person with a hot constitution, the most you will have is bleeding from your mouth and nose, and you can go out and recuperate. But if you are a person with a hot constitution, you may suffer from brain hemorrhage and die of a stroke if you stay here for a long time."
When Eunuch Gui heard this, he was shocked and didn't even care about his bleeding nose. He bowed quickly and said, "Your Highness Prince Yi, I have to go back to the palace to report. I won't stay here any longer."
Ouyang Yi smiled and said, "Well, Eunuch Gui, take care."
It can’t be slowed down, not at all.
