After being recalled by Emperor Zhou, Princess Yuan Xi and Yuan Peng stepped out of the imperial study and left the palace together. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

On the bustling street, Princess Yuanxi changed her previous strong posture and followed her brother silently, like a child who had done something wrong.

Although in the study just now, Yuan Peng still chose to stand on her side and confess to Emperor Zhou what the prince had done.

But now there is no news in the palace about how Emperor Zhou disposes of the crown prince, and she is still worried about the result.

He did not hesitate to put the family and country behind him this time, not only to bring down the prince for Gao Heng, but also to get a little pity from him.

Even if she knew that Gao Heng didn't have any true feelings for her now, even if she was just grateful for Wen Cun, it was much better than the indifference of turning a blind eye.

But Princess Yuanxi didn't know that it was, why wasn't Yuan Peng, who was walking in front of her, full of thoughts?

Although he has accepted the prince's life experience, the storm in Yuan Peng's heart at the moment because of this incident is still unsettled.

In desperation, he blatantly framed the prince in injustice in front of Emperor Zhou.

Even so, he finally won Gao Heng's trust by relying on this righteous and awe-inspiring drama, but it also made the prince resentful of him and left an insoluble knot.

Compared with Princess Yuanxi, he was even more upset in his heart at the moment, for fear that Emperor Zhou would really abolish the crown prince's position as the prince when he was angry.

In this way, it not only violates the original intention of the king of Chu, but also is even more detrimental to his own plan and plan, and the road ahead is difficult.

Only when the crown prince still sits firmly in the storage position, can he continue to add fuel to the fire, and they can continue to use each other and take what they get.

Moreover, now with the support of the King of Chu behind him, everything will be smoother, and what he wants is just around the corner.

Yuan Peng's purpose at this moment is not only the throne of the Chu State, but also the entire flowery Great Zhou River in front of him.

"I don't know... What will the Emperor of Zhou do with the crown prince?"

Just as the ambition in Yuan Peng's chest was constantly expanding, Princess Yuan Xi's slightly worried and tentative voice suddenly came from behind him.

His eyes flashed, and he immediately put away the gloomy color that rolled up in his eyes, and replied in an angry voice.

"Why don't you ask, what will I do with your disobedient sister?"

Seeing that Yuan Peng was still willing to joke, the self-blame on Princess Yuan Xi's face dissipated a lot, and her originally fluctuating mood calmed down a little, and then moved around in front of him.

"Brother Huang, I know it's me who is not good. ”

Princess Yuanxi raised her hand and shook Yuan Peng's arm, lowered her eyes with a flat mouth, and put on a guilty posture of knowing that she was wrong.

"But... But if I don't help him this time, I'm afraid that from now on in his heart, I will always be a foreign enemy with ulterior motives, and I will always be as wary of me as a thief. ”

"But if you help him, he will only be grateful to you. You are well aware that this gratitude is not love. ”

Yuan Peng sighed lightly, put his hand on the back of Princess Yuan Xi's hand and patted it twice, his eyes showing a distressed look of comfort.

It was precisely because he saw that Princess Yuanxi trusted him and wanted her to keep silent about the peace talks, so he deliberately threatened the State of Chu and the King of Chu.

But in fact, although this matter will more or less make Emperor Zhou feel guilty, it is not as serious as he said.

Seeing Princess Yuanxi's sad expression at this moment, Yuan Peng couldn't bear to blame him more, so he stretched his eyebrows and returned to his former cordial and kind color.

"I know. ”

Hearing Yuan Peng's words, Princess Yuan Xi still fell to the ground and fell on her shoulders, and a pair of autumn water became even more dim in an instant.

"But apart from this, I don't know what else to do to make him forget about that Cheng Jinzhi for a while and look at me again. ”

Thinking of Cheng Jinzhi, Princess Yuanxi's eyes flashed slightly, no matter how she persuaded herself not to deal with a dying patient, a persistent hatred still unconsciously surged up in her heart.

Cheng Jinzhi was hit hard by this and lost her child, King Yan regretted it in her heart, and it was inevitable that her heart would be tied to her. Wait until she's back ......."

However, before Yuan Peng finished speaking, he saw Princess Yuan Xi's eyes sank, and the hatred in her heart immediately swirled upward, and her face jumped.

When her body recovered, Gao Heng felt guilty in her heart, and she would only be more considerate to her. As long as this woman is in the Yanwang Mansion for a day, all I will get will always be Gao Heng's charity and mercy. ”

As she said this, she let go of the hand that was holding on Yuan Peng's sleeve, and cast her eyes on the crowd in front of her, her eyes slightly condensed.

"Maybe the royal brother will think that I am selfish and even too ruthless. But I really hope that it would be nice if she couldn't be saved this time. Between us, perhaps, in the end, there is destined to be only one left. ”

"Of course, I hope that the last person left is you. ”

Yuan Peng walked up to Princess Yuanxi, leaving these words in her ears in a deep but powerful voice, but his eyes were full of complicated emotions.

Finally, how long will it take?

He knew very well in his heart that as long as the crown prince was not deposed today, there would be little time left for Princess Yuanxi to get along with Gao Heng.

At that time, he agreed to conspire with the prince to capture Cheng Jinzhi, although he didn't want to kill her, he had already planned not to let her return to Gao Heng's side.

At this moment, looking at Princess Yuanxi's extremely sad and painful expression, he secretly clenched his fist hidden in his sleeves, and suddenly began to resent his kindness to Cheng Jinzhi at the beginning.

"I know that even if everyone in the world blames me and thinks I'm wrong, you will definitely be on my side, brother. Just like in the Imperial Study, you're still willing to help me after all. ”

Princess Yuan Xi stopped and stared at Yuan Peng, a long-lost warm smile appeared on her lips, and even her eyes flashed with shallow tears.

Although she quickly disappeared into the depths of her eyes, there was still a heartfelt look of gratitude on her cheeks.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm just afraid that you will get angry and wave your whip and chase me all over the streets, so I reluctantly indulge your impulsive actions. ”

Hearing this, Yuan Peng raised his hand and grabbed Princess Yuanxi's shoulder, pretending to joke, although there was a gratifying smile on the corner of his mouth, but his heart was as heavy as a thousand pounds, and he had mixed tastes.

In the blink of his eyes, he saw that Princess Yuanxi beside him was slightly sluggish, and after a moment of silence, he glanced at him sideways with a suspicious expression.

"Brother Huang, in fact, I have always wanted to ask you, did you really send someone to report to the palace last night? If this is the case, how did you find the person who couldn't even be found in the Yan Palace?"
