When the eastern sky turns white, the long and tumultuous night finally fades from the dull feathers and ushers in a new day. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

When the first ray of light in the morning shone on Cheng Jinzhi's slightly tired face with a warm and shallow breath, she raised her arms and stretched her waist widely, greedily breathed a breath of fresh air, and listened to the crisp and pleasant birdsong in her ears, and her mood was also a lot more relaxed.

The Cheng family, who dragged their family with them, finally returned home before dawn.

It was the first time she had heard them thank her in person.

Although she could see that Cheng Xiuning was reluctant, and Cheng Yu was a little perfunctory, at least this time the goal was achieved, and the self-righteous Cheng family could still be regarded as a life-saving benefactor, Cheng Jinzhi already felt a little satisfied.

As for what will happen after that, she doesn't want to think about it, and she doesn't bother to think about it.

She didn't know that now this turmoil is only temporarily over.

Although the Cheng family has been temporarily stabilized, Gu Hanqing is still guilty and still in prison, and the prince does not know what means he will use to turn the tide, and Cheng Yan's position has not yet been clear.

If you are not careful, you will be stabbed in the back, and if you are not careful, you will be in danger and even lose your life, which is much more thrilling and exciting than her previous days in Chengfu.

But the reason why Cheng Jinzhi thinks so is not because she is cowardly, greedy for life and afraid of death.

She was just afraid that the few people around her who were valued by her would suddenly encounter an accident one day or leave her.

No matter how much you want to fly on the branches and get rid of the hard life of the working people at the bottom who are exploited and oppressed.

But after experiencing some things, perhaps deep down in her heart, her greatest wish is to hope for a happy life and world peace, right?

"Cheng Jinzhi, I've been tired for a day and a night, why haven't you gone back to your room to rest?"

At that time, Gao Heng had already changed into an awe-inspiring black embroidered gold satin embroidered court dress, and was about to go to Zhaoyang Palace to face the saint, and saw Cheng Jinzhi standing by the stone bridge in the garden in a daze, so he walked towards her.

Cheng Jinzhi was stunned for a moment, I don't know if it was because of the wrong tendons in his brain, or because he hadn't teased Gao Heng for a long time, he had a whim. I saw that she suddenly turned around with an aggrieved face, folded her hands, and winked at Gao Heng in a coquettish tone.

"Your Highness is not here, how can people sleep?"

This look, not to mention how soul-destroying it is.

"Do you have a fever?" Gao Heng frowned slightly, and raised his hand to cover Cheng Jinzhi's forehead, "Do you want me to ask the imperial doctor to take a look at you?"

"Are you serious?

Cheng Jinzhi took Gao Heng's hand away, pretended to be disgusted, his eyes changed, and then he put away the ridicule on his face.

"That old man, will he go to the court in a while, right?"

"It probably would. Gao Heng's eyebrows moved slightly, "Now that his children have been found, he should be relieved at the moment, and his father will definitely ask about what happened outside the Marquis of Li'an yesterday today, and the prince doesn't know how to defend himself, if he wants to come to the court, it will set off a storm, and he can't stay out of it." ”

"Well, I thought I could catch my breath for a while. Cheng Jinzhi lowered his eyes a little disappointed, "I don't know if that old man really regards us as a lifesaver, he and the prince have always been in collusion for so many years, and now that his son has been recovered, will he really break with him because of the prince's abandonment of the car to protect the handsome?"

She tilted her head in frustration, and suddenly seemed to realize something, and slapped her hands unwillingly.

"No, we should have hid that fat boy if we knew that we should have done it, only if this old man really thought that his son was hanging, then there would be no possibility of a comeback between him and the prince. Otherwise, they may rekindle their old feelings at any time. ”

Hearing Cheng Jinzhi use the idiom "rekindling old love", a few black lines flashed slightly on Gao Heng's face, and then straightened his face.

"The soldiers will block, the water will come to cover the earth, and wait and see what happens. However, I have always felt a little strange, when Cheng Yan came to the palace last night, why was he so sure that we arrested someone behind our back?"

"I'm still wondering about this question. ”

Cheng Jinzhi was leaning on the stone bridge to look at the newly-born fish fry in the pond, and when he heard Gao Heng say this, he immediately turned around and took over the conversation.

"He dared to ask where the person was in front of you, he must have some clues. ”

"That's right. Gao Heng closed his eyes slightly, as if he was recalling, "His expression yesterday was as if someone was correcting us, if it weren't for your second sister and your younger brother personally admitting that we were saving people and not harming people, I think our suspicion in his heart would not be able to get rid of it." ”

"Speaking of which, my eldest sister's reaction yesterday was also very strange. Cheng Jinzhi pursed her lips thoughtfully, "Although I know that she is bent on putting the blame on me, don't you think, she is a little... Sort of..."

"I understand what you're trying to say. Gao Heng put his hand on the railing of the stone bridge, his eyes darkened, "I can only say that your eldest sister and that Mrs. Cheng are not fuel-efficient lamps." ”

"They're more than fuel-efficient lamps. The existence of these two people is simply a disaster for the world. ”

Cheng Jinzhi put his elbow against his chin and dropped his shoulders helplessly, and sighed straight.

"But there's one more thing that I find weird. ”

"What?"

"It's my second sister. Cheng Jinzhi settled down and said seriously, "How did you say that those people in Yuyin Villa managed to move them to other places and chase them to the palace without leaking? It has only been more than an hour since we returned to the palace from Shuyu Pavilion, and as a result, they arrived on their hind feet, and that Xu Ruyan is quite a set." ”

"Do you remember the passage behind that secret room?" Gao Heng snorted lightly, but behaved calmly, "I think they may have used this secret passage to transfer hostages and took a shortcut." ”

"Really?" Cheng Jinzhi nodded suddenly, his face full of curiosity, "It seems that there is indeed a cave behind that secret room, I really want to know where that secret passage leads?"

"It's not a big deal for the time being. ”

Gao Heng glanced at the fiery red clouds in the sky, raised his hand and straightened his clothes.

"It's not early, I should enter the palace, eat early, let's go back and rest quickly." ”

Seeing Cheng Jinzhi nodding, he just wanted to take a step and was about to leave, his eyes flashed, and he suddenly stopped.

"By the way, it's almost the end of the year, when I entered the palace a few days ago, my mother mentioned that she wanted me to take you to the palace to celebrate the New Year this year. ”

"Huh? Enter the palace?"

Cheng Jinzhi was stunned for a moment, remembering the dangerous things that happened when he first entered the palace before, he bit his lip with some embarrassment, and squeezed out a smile towards Gao Heng in every way of flattery.

"That's... Can I... Think about it?"

Of course, in fact, her subtext is, no appointment.

Looking at Cheng Jinzhi's pretending to be pitiful, Gao Heng raised the corners of his mouth lightly, smiled helplessly, but resolutely spit out two words in his mouth.

"No, you can't. ”
