Chapter 294: Hand in Hand

The moment I walked out of the imperial study, it was already twilight, and it was dusk that would not stop. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Looking at the palace buildings in front of you that are as vast as stars under the layers of sunset, although they are majestic and magnificent, they make people feel cold and daunting.

Gao Heng stared at him, never taking a step, but raised his chin slightly to look in the direction of Guangling Palace, and deeply gathered his eyebrows.

"If you still want Cheng Jinzhi to stay by your side safe and sound, don't disobey me. ”

The cold and impersonal threatening words of Emperor Zhou echoed in his ears, and when he thought about it again, it was still a heart-piercing word.

Over the years, he has gone through thousands of dangers, climbing up step by step, in order to be the emperor of the world.

However, looking at his indifferent and ruthless father, he felt all kinds of chills, and even gave birth to a faint fear.

He should have thought that since Emperor Zhou was willing to let his young son go to the enemy country as a hostage, he would die for life.

A Cheng Jinzhi who has nothing to do with him, how could he be compassionate and not use it to coerce himself?

Thinking of the past and today's events, Gao Heng hooked the corners of his mouth and laughed at himself, and a deep mist evaporated in his eyes.

He thinks that he is invulnerable, invincible, and there are no difficulties and dangers in front of him, which can become a burden to drag him down.

But in the end, he still can't escape the love of his children, and the lingering infatuation and shackles.

Of course, he never felt any regrets about it, he just felt powerless.

This kind of powerlessness finally turned into a debt and guilt to Cheng Jinzhi, which made him not know how to face it for a while.

Gao Heng closed his eyes and sighed heavily, just when the guilt in his heart made it difficult for him to breathe, when he opened his eyes, he saw a familiar figure gradually approaching, stopping not far from him.

"What are you doing standing here stupidly, I'm here to take you back to the palace of the concubine for dinner. ”

Cheng Jinzhi stood there with a calm expression, smiling at Gao Hengyingying, her spirit looked relaxed and happy, and there was no worry on her face, just like she was optimistic and happy on weekdays.

She actually didn't go back to Guangling Palace, but left Gao Xun behind and went back here directly from the Imperial Garden.

She knew Gao Heng's stubborn and resolute character, and she was afraid that he would provoke Emperor Zhou Longyan to do something stupid for herself, so she hurriedly ran back, hoping to stop something with her own meager strength.

And looking at Gao Heng, who looked sad in front of her but was still trying her best to endure it, she already knew the answer in her heart.

It's just that her first reaction at this moment is not to feel sorry for Princess Nanchu anymore, but to feel distressed.

In Cheng Jinzhi's memory, he has never seen Gao Heng's expression.

The impression is invincible, and he is in charge alone, how helpless and unwilling is he to reveal such a look?

"Alright, let's go. ”

Cheng Jinzhi stepped forward to hold Gao Heng's hand, even though his heart was already gloomy, he still pretended to be disapproving on the surface and smiled and groaned.

"Oh, I've thought about it, in fact, it's nothing for you to marry an extra wife, this Yanwang Mansion is so big, when you are not there, I am also bored and panicked, and I can also talk to multiple people. Besides, which prince is not a prince with three wives and four concubines, you are such a princess as me, and it is indeed too ......"

However, before Cheng Jinzhi finished speaking, he was already tightly embraced by Gao Heng with his hand.

And at the moment when he felt the temperature of Gao Heng's body, the softest place in the depths of Cheng Jinzhi's heart suddenly soured, the far-fetched smile on the corner of his mouth gradually dissipated, and tears were already rolling in his eyes.

Cheng Jinzhi is used to getting along with Gao Heng day and night in the Yan Palace, but she never thought that one day, there would be an extra woman in this palace who was also named "Princess Yan".

"I'm sorry. ”

"Why do you say I'm sorry, how can you be sorry for me? What I just said was sincere, and I wasn't joking with you. ”

Cheng Jinzhi grabbed Gao Heng's clothes, raised his head and held back the tears that were about to overflow his eyes, trying his best to make himself look careless, but there were still a few shallow nasal voices in his tone.

"It's all this time, why are you still lying to me?"

Gao Heng put his hand on Cheng Jinzhi's hair, pitying and gently comforting, his tone was full of guilt and self-blame, but he never dared to look at her tearful eyes.

"In fact, from the moment your father called you into the study, I knew that there was no room for maneuver in this matter. ”

Cheng Jinzhi pursed the corners of his lips and took a deep breath, tears in his eyes.

"Since you were a child, you have suffered so much, you have suffered so many grievances, it is not easy to have everything today, the last thing I want to see is that you offend your father for me. As long as I know that you only care about and cherish me alone in your heart from beginning to end, that's enough, and other things, since they can't be avoided, then you can only accept them calmly. ”

Listening to Cheng Jinzhi's pretended relaxed tone and these words that always thought about himself, Gao Heng's heart couldn't help but hurt for a while, and although he resented Emperor Zhou in his heart, he resented himself even more for his powerlessness.

There was even a moment when he suddenly felt that if Cheng Jinzhi stayed by Gu Hanqing's side, he might be happier.

At least you don't have to suffer such ruthless grievances from the imperial family.

It was only soon that he denied this, which in his opinion merely represented cowardice and evasion.

"Okay, it's okay, besides, my husband is so popular with girls, which also shows that I have a lot of vision. ”

Cheng Jinzhi saw that Gao Heng was silent, knowing that he felt guilty and sad in his heart, so he tried his best to endure the sourness and pain in his heart, with a joking tone, comforting him while gently patting his shoulder.

"I will let that woman know that what she demands today will be tears of regret for the rest of her life. Emotional matters can never be forced. ”

Gao Heng's tone was cold and resolute, without the slightest warmth, and then leaned into Cheng Jinzhi's ear and lowered his voice.

"Between Zhou Chu, sooner or later there will inevitably be a battle, and she won't stay here for long. ”

Cheng Jinzhi's eyes flashed when he heard this, and he naturally heard the deep meaning of Gao Heng's words, but he just wanted to speak, but he heard that the door of the study was suddenly opened.

At the same time, I saw Emperor Zhou, accompanied by a eunuch, stepping out of the door unhurriedly.

The two were startled, hurriedly let go of each other, and stood in place with some embarrassment, stunned for a moment, Cheng Jinzhi then remembered and hurriedly saluted Emperor Zhou.

But when he raised his eyes, he found that the way Emperor Zhou looked at him seemed to be a little different from usual.
