Gao Heng's words were shocking, and suddenly everyone around couldn't help but let out an exclamation from their mouths, looking at each other, and the atmosphere became extremely grim in an instant.

Even if they haven't understood the ins and outs of the whole thing, Gao Heng's statement alone is enough to make these soldiers who were originally with the joy of returning triumphantly fall into a burst of shock and panic at a loss.

Even Chen Fu, who had always been calm and calm, couldn't help but tremble between his eyebrows, and a thick mist rose from the depths of his eyes.

And these words fell into the ears of Princess Yuanxi, which was tantamount to a thunderbolt from the sky.

Defenseless, but so heavy and sharp slashed straight down, a bloody gap was cut in her heart, full of heartache that penetrated deep into the bone marrow.

"Impossible... No way... My father wouldn't do that, and my brother wouldn't!"

Facing Gao Heng's cold questioning voice, Princess Yuanxi was stunned in a daze, not choosing to defend herself, her mind was full of disbelief about what she said at the moment.

If what Gao Heng said is true, then he is already an abandoned son in the hands of the King of Chu who is ready to be sacrificed, just as he said at the beginning.

But even so, she didn't believe that her brother, who had grown up with her since she was a child and had been with her for many years, would deceive her so ruthlessly, and even give up her ruthlessly!

"No, there must be something wrong with this, Your Highness, this must be a conspiracy! Someone must be trying to sow discord between you and my home country!

Princess Yuanxi said excitedly, not caring about Gao Heng's long sword around her neck, her eyes were already overflowing with tears of grief and indignation, and with the vigorous undulating breathing in her chest, the whole person was trembling uncontrollably.

And looking at the woman in front of him who was more fragile and helpless than ever, Gao Heng's eyes loosened, the originally tight sword stretched, and the hand holding the sword began to relax, and finally let go.

After a person is shocked, a momentary outpouring of emotion is always the most real.

From the eyes of Princess Yuanxi, he did not see a trace of concealment, nor did he have the pleasure of succeeding in the conspiracy.

Yes, it is just the endless and deep sorrow and sorrow after the great shock.

"Before you enter Beijing, you can go, don't come back. ”

Gao Heng indifferently spit out a few words from his mouth, the reason why he was so ruthless was that in addition to the sympathy for her being betrayed by her mother country and brother, he also didn't want to affect her.

"I'm not leaving, since I have married into the Yanwang Mansion, life and death are yours, even if I die, I will die with you!"

As if all the hopes of being born as a human being disappeared and disillusioned at this moment, Princess Yuanxi cried loudly while shedding tears, thinking that she was like a lost dog with no one to take her in at this moment, and the corners of her mouth suddenly pulled out a sad sneer.

Thinking back to the bits and pieces of getting along with Yuan Peng, and every word he said to himself after coming to Zhou Kingdom, his face became even more miserable and pale because of hatred and pain.

"Now that I have no country, no home, no relatives, where else can I go?"

Looking at the steaming despair in Princess Yuanxi's tearful eyes, Gao Heng pursed the corners of his lips lightly, and finally came back to his senses after his heart was soft, and he couldn't bear to persecute her anymore, but he didn't say anything more.

"Is what His Highness said true?"

Seeing that Gao Heng was no longer aggressive towards Princess Yuanxi, but withdrew the long sword with cold eyes, Chen Fu, who was already anxious on the side, finally couldn't help but ask.

"General Chen believes that this king will do such a great rebellion?"

Gao Heng glanced at him lightly, and then looked ahead with a confused expression, a little out of place.

"Naturally, I don't believe it. ”

Chen Fu didn't think much about it when he heard this, but blurted out almost categorically.

"Although I don't have such a deep friendship with His Royal Highness as life and death, but since I became attached to His Highness in the Western Jin Dynasty, I know that since His Highness dares to fight against a thousand armies with the strength of one person, even if he risks his life, he will save his friends. Naturally, today we will not use such rebellious means that will be deceitful by thousands of people in the world to fight for power. ”

"It is really an honor for me to receive such praise and trust from General Chen. ”

Gao Heng looked indifferent with a look of relief, but saw Chen Fu tighten the corners of his eyebrows, and said in a nervous tone: "But I believe that this matter is useless, since Your Majesty has listened to what the traitor said, he must have already laid a net in the capital to invite you into the urn, Your Highness really shouldn't go back at this time, and it is in the arms of those people." ”

"Jin Zhi and his mother are still in the capital, and they have long guessed that I will definitely go back. In this game of chess, they marched and arranged their formations just right, and I am afraid that they will not be able to avoid the catastrophe this time. ”

Gao Heng closed his eyes slightly and took a heavy breath, and his other hand clenched the long sword at his waist, but he did not slack off in his heart.

He was racing in his mind for a feasible response, but just as he had a flash of inspiration, he heard a sudden but rapid sound of horses' hooves in front of him.

"Report! General Lin is leading the forbidden army from the capital to rush from the capital, saying that he is on the order of His Majesty to come to arrest ......."

At this moment, I saw a general who went to explore the way galloping on his horse, tightening the reins in front of Gao Heng, but he was a little hesitant and did not dare to speak.

"They're here to capture the king, right?"

Gao Heng snorted coldly, as if he had expected it, and did not feel any surprise or fear at all.

"It seems that he, like the royal brother, is desperate to kill me, otherwise he wouldn't have come so quickly. ”

He understood the prince's impulsive and impatient personality, and instead of waiting for his prey in the capital to fall into the net, in order to prevent himself from hearing the wind and fleeing, it was better to preemptively go forward to surround and intercept him.

In this way, if you resist and refuse, you will be even more guilty of treason, and you can even kill yourself for such a reason.

But Gao Heng knew that even if he wanted to return to Beijing, he would never go back with his hands tied up like this, and let others slaughter him as a knife and fish.

"Your Highness, you should leave quickly! Stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of running out of firewood, the person Your Majesty wants to arrest is you, and you shouldn't punish the princess and Concubine Hui too harshly. This Lin Kang and the prince are the same raccoon dog, if you are taken away by him, you will definitely die for life!"

Not far away, the rumbling sound of horses' hooves came and went, sonorous and powerful, indicating that danger was approaching step by step.

Chen Fu urged eagerly, but when he saw Gao Heng's eyes like torches, he was still unmoved, and he had no intention of escaping.

"I can't abandon Jin Zhi and my mother, and I don't want to bear this trumped-up sin and live for a long time. Besides, Lin Kang has long been eyeing the position of the general of the Left Guard, and if I leave, the general and the entire Red Feather Army will inevitably be affected by me. ”

He said heavily, and the sharp and cold light in his eyes gradually converged on one point, making people dare not look directly for a while.

"I must go back, but not as a rebel. ”
