"Brother Huang, are you really leaving, why can't you stay a little longer?"

In the elegant residence built by the water outside the city, Princess Yuanxi stood in front of the Gan Gan with a gloomy expression, looking into the vast lake in front of her, and her eyebrows reflected deep sadness. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Three days later, Yuan Peng was about to leave for Nanchu, which meant that Princess Yuan Xi was about to leave.

At this point, she had to be left alone in this strange land, facing every sleepless night of being alone in the empty room.

"Xi'er, my father has an order, let me return to China immediately, it seems that there is an urgent matter, and I really can't shirk it. Besides, I have been in the Zhou State for more than a few months, and if I refuse to leave for a long time, it will make the Emperor of the Zhou State suspicious, and it is time to go back first. ”

Looking at Princess Yuan Xi beside him, Yuan Peng sighed helplessly, and a sour taste of guilt spread in his heart.

However, Princess Yuan Xi was unmoved by Yuan Peng's explanation, and still stopped her gaze on the surface of the lake, narrowing her pupils slightly.

"Brother Huang has been going for a long time, you and I, brother and sister, I'm afraid we won't see each other in this life. ”

Her tone was very light, but she felt extremely heavy when she fell into Yuan Peng's second middle school, and every word was full of parting sadness.

However, in just a moment, he retracted the sorrow that was about to overflow his eyes, and the corners of his lips were raised with a smile of indulgence.

"Xi'er, what kind of stupid thing to say, when I go back this time to report to my father, when everything is done, I will definitely ask my father for his life, and I will be stationed in Zhou as an envoy. Anyway, Chu Di has the eldest brother of the emperor, the crown prince, to assist his father, and I, the prince, are of little use, so it makes no difference where I go. Besides, in this way, our brother and sister can also be reunited. ”

Yuan Peng said softly, when he mentioned the prince of Nanchu, there was obviously a trace of displeasure and contempt between his words, just because Princess Yuan Xi couldn't bear to part in her heart, so she didn't notice it.

"Really?"

"Of course it's true, I'm just a sister like you, how can I be willing to leave you here alone?" Yuan Peng nodded affirmatively, and then his eyes turned slightly, "What's more, you are kind to Gao Heng, but he treats you like this, I can't bear to see you snubbed like this." Speaking of which, it's my royal brother who is useless, and you have been wronged. ”

Hearing Yuan Peng mention Gao Heng, Princess Yuan Xi, who was already sentimental in her heart, pursed the corners of her lips, and even her eyelashes trembled slightly.

"Brother Huang, this is what I asked for, and it has nothing to do with you. If I hadn't been determined to marry into the Yan Wangfu, I wouldn't have ended up in such a situation now. ”

"Xi'er, do you regret it?"

Looking at the deep loss and powerlessness in Princess Yuan Xi's eyes, Yuan Peng only felt a tightness in his chest, and his heart was mixed for a while.

If she could do whatever it took to stop this marriage at that time, Princess Yuanxi would not have had to marry far away from another country, and naturally she would not have to suffer as much as she does now.

Not to mention the heart-wrenching pain of being betrayed by his brother and becoming an outcast of the country.

"No, I have no regrets. I just blame myself for being useless, no matter what I do, I can't catch this man's heart. ”

Princess Yuanxi's eyes lit up, and the light in her eyes just shone sporadically, but it quickly dimmed.

"It's not your fault, it's that Cheng Jinzhi. ”

Yuan Peng's eyebrows frowned when he saw this, and he blurted out with remorse in his heart: "It's all because I was too merciful and didn't make a ruthless effort to get rid of her, otherwise you wouldn't be so sad." ”

"Get rid of her, Brother Huang, what did you say?"

When Princess Yuanxi heard this, she stared at her brother with a stunned gaze, and her eyebrows were full of surprise and suspicion.

"Oh, nothing. ”

Yuan Peng realized that he had lost his words, and hurriedly turned his head sideways to deny it, secretly blaming himself for not being so uncomplacent.

"Brother Huang, are you hiding something from me?"

In the face of Yuan Peng's slightly awkward reaction, Princess Yuan Xi frowned slightly, and just wanted to continue to ask, but saw that Yuan Peng had adjusted his face and looked at her seriously.

"No, Xi'er, don't think nonsense. You are a dignified princess of Da Chu, I just can't bear to see you suffer such grievances. Now that I'm still here, Gao Heng dares to snub you like this, I really don't know how he will get worse after I leave. ”

Yuan Peng couldn't help but tighten his cheeks when he said this, and slapped his palm on the trunk with self-blame.

"In the final analysis, it's still useless for me, the royal brother, to watch others bully his sister, and there is nothing I can do. ”

"Gao Heng didn't bully me, he was very polite to me. Princess Yuanxi's eyes were slightly condensed, and she smiled bitterly, "It's so polite that it makes me feel that I am a guest of Yanwang's Mansion, and I have to leave after all." ”

"Xi'er ......"

"I thought that Cheng Jinzhi had no children and lost his memory, and he didn't even recognize his husband, but God took pity on me and wanted to give me a chance to get close to Gao Heng. But I didn't expect that it was just a joke that God played with me. ”

Princess Yuanxi continued to talk to herself, her eyes were already miserable, and even her voice was a little hoarse and wanted to cry.

"Xi'er, don't say it. ”

Listening to Princess Yuan Xi's heart-piercing words, Yuan Peng finally couldn't bear it, and raised his hand to clasp her shoulder.

"You are like this, how can I go back to Dachu with confidence?"

"Whether you are relieved or not, doesn't the imperial brother have to go back?"

Princess Yuan Xi smiled sadly, then turned her eyes, and after a moment, she suddenly looked at Yuan Peng with a slightly strange gaze.

"By the way, Brother Huang, are the rumors that you said that there are doubts about the life of the prince of Zhou Guo that are spread outside?"

Hearing Princess Yuanxi's sudden mention of the crown prince, Yuan Peng's cheeks jumped, and he hurriedly pretended to be calm and said: "I don't know, but the so-called no wind and no waves, this matter may not necessarily be false." But if it is true, it is the biggest joke of the Zhou royal family, and it must be recorded in history. ”

However, Princess Yuan Xi ignored Yuan Peng's ridicule, but continued to say with a serious face: "If it is true, does it mean that Gao Heng will definitely replace the crown prince and sit on the throne of Zhou Kingdom?"

"Quite possibly. Yuan Peng bowed slightly, and then his eyes flashed, "But Xi'er, why did you suddenly say this?"

"Brother Huang, in some things, she may be more capable than me, but there are also things that I have done, but she is beyond her reach. ”

Looking at the confused look in Princess Yuan Xi's eyes, Yuan Peng's eyebrows tightened, and a strong concern unconsciously rose in his heart.

I was vaguely aware that the next problem to be faced may be an unfeasible problem.

"Xi'er, what exactly do you want to say?"

"I think the royal brother will do me one last favor before leaving. ”

"What's the busy?"

"Help me put on a play in front of Gao Heng. ”

Princess Yuanxi's eyes burned, and her lips opened slightly.

"Brother and sister break up. ”
