Chapter 348: Waiting for Good News

"It turned out that the prince captured Princess Yan for this matter. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Yuan Peng put away the worry in the corner of his eyes, nodded pretending to be suddenly realized, and then looked at Princess Yuan Xi with a suspicious expression.

"But Xi'er, how did you know? But King Yan told you?"

Princess Yuanxi's eyes flashed when she heard this, and she hurriedly responded: "Oh, when I passed by the front yard, I happened to bump into the crown prince and His Royal Highness talking. ”

Is this really just a coincidence?"

Yuan Peng smiled at the corner of his mouth, and looked at Princess Yuan Xi meaningfully, but he couldn't help but complain in his heart that the prince was too careless and cautious. It was expected that he must have thought that he was victorious, so he was not on guard, allowing Princess Yuanxi to get a glimpse of his intentions. "Brother Huang, whether it is deliberate or coincidental, now is not the time to discuss these at all. ”

Princess Yuan Xi was eager to save people, and at this moment, she no longer had the heart to understand Yuan Peng's ridicule, but her face tensed, and she glared at him angrily.

"Since the crown prince dares to admit that he sent someone to kidnap Cheng Jinzhi, and now he is running to the palace to threaten His Highness in a grand manner, it is enough to prove that the batch of disaster relief officials who disappeared back then were his hands and feet! It seems that Cheng Jinzhi is right, the gold, silver and jewelry he gave us during the peace talks with you four years ago must have been used by him to steal the beams and exchange the pillars. ”

"Xi'er, what you said is indeed very possible. ”

Yuan Peng nodded earnestly with a restrained expression, pondered for a moment, and suddenly took a solemn breath with his gaze.

"But if this matter is not a last resort, we should not interfere for the time being. ”

"Why?" Princess Yuan Xi's face changed when she heard this, and she approached Yuan Peng with a puzzled face, "Isn't this situation the last resort? Before nightfall tomorrow, if we don't help His Royal Highness to testify against the emperor of Zhou State, His Royal Highness will definitely come forward to confess his guilt for the sake of that Cheng Jinzhi, and ...... then."

Princess Yuanxi suddenly stopped abruptly when she said this, as if she didn't want to think about it anymore, she pursed her lips and paused for a while, and then looked at Yuan Peng with a sinking face.

"Brother Huang, you and I have always been people on the same line, and since I have married into the Yan Palace, I will not care about the safety of His Royal Highness and the Palace. So far, only we can help him. ”

"Xi'er, of course I'm on the same line as you, but you calm down and listen to me first. ”

Yuan Peng comforted Princess Yuanxi to sit down at the desk, and pretended to ask for a while, and then opened his mouth very seriously.

"Do you think, since Cheng Jinzhi knows what the prince has done behind this official money, how can King Yan not know?

really had the heart to ask us for help, Cheng Jinzhi would not swallow his anger at the beginning, and chose to come to you in private. You should know that when we deceived this marriage, he has always been suspicious of you and me, and even on the surface, he spoke coldly to me, and he didn't care about our Da Chu's support at all. Why should we take our hot face and stick it to his cold ass?"

Yuan Peng raised his hand and rubbed his face very pantrantly as he spoke, and when he saw that Princess Yuan Xi was thinking about what he said, he deepened his eyes and continued. "Whether it is the relationship between a man and a woman, or the friendship between people, if it is too attentive, it will make the other party feel cheap. You should take this opportunity to make Gao Heng realize that you are a vital existence for him, and not a marionette who comes and goes, and can hurt you at will just because you love him!"

"Brother Huang, in this world, except for my deceased mother, only you will care about me and love me. ”

Hearing Yuan Peng's words, and thinking of Gao Heng's indifference to herself, Princess Yuan Xi only felt deeply touched in her heart for a while, raised her hand to arm him, and the little bird leaned on his shoulder.

"Xi'er, I don't want to see you so humble for the sake of a man. You are a dignified princess of Da Chu, you have enough capital and self-confidence to make men die for you, instead of living like now......"

Yuan Peng tightened his pupils and patted Princess Yuan Xi's shoulder with a sad expression, but suddenly felt as if a huge stone had been blocked in his chest, and he could only bear a deep sense of guilt and suppress himself.

But these words are indeed from the heart.

It's just that at this moment, I will obviously destroy her happiness with my own hands in the near future, so what qualifications do I have to move her again?

"So, let King Yan figure it out and come to us in person. In this way, let him know what kind of big tree our Great Chu is to his Yan Wangfu? Besides, if he asks you how you know about this, how will you answer? Do you tell him that you eavesdropped, or do you want him to know that Cheng Jinzhi had begged you for him in the first place?"

Yuan Peng's words were clear and reasonable, even if Princess Yuan Xi was anxious, she was much calmer than before at this time.

It's just that out of concern for Gao Heng, she still can't help but imagine: "But what if... What if he doesn't come to us?"

"Xi'er, don't worry, you, a husband who has the world in mind and take into account the overall situation, will not let more innocent people die because of him for personal grievances. There is still some time before nightfall tomorrow, so you can wait patiently. Many times, only a last-minute shot can have a profound resonance in people's hearts. ”

Yuan Peng moved his eyelashes twice with a confused expression, raised his head and landed on the floating clouds outside the window, and had silently thought of a countermeasure in his heart.

As long as Princess Yuanxi can't help Gao Heng prove the prince's crimes to Emperor Zhou in time, after Gao Heng confesses to Emperor Zhou, no matter what she comes forward to say, it will only be regarded as a deliberate far-fetched move to clear her husband's suspicion.

And what Yuan Peng has to do at this moment is to make it impossible for Princess Yuan Xi to relieve this crisis for Gao Heng in this limited time.

Thinking of this, in order to make Princess Yuanxi not act impulsively, he turned his face and changed the topic.

"Xi'er, and I don't want you to meddle in this matter, there's another reason. ”

"What is the reason?"

"Although the crown prince is seriously suspected of this official silver robbery, but it really caused trouble to the emperor of Zhou, do you have real evidence to prove that the gold, silver and jewelry we received back then was the income of that official silver? Besides, now that you have married into the palace, it is hard to guarantee that he will not think that we are deliberately covering up. ”

"No, the Emperor of Zhou is not like a mediocre person, such an obvious coincidence, he can't sit idly by. ”

Princess Yuanxi sat up straight as she spoke, silent for a long time, and a trace of concern flowed from the corners of her eyes.

But in this concern, there seems to be a touch of joy mixed with nothing.

"Brother Huang, I'm thinking now, if we save this game for His Highness, will Cheng Jinzhi and the child in her womb ......?"

"Xi'er, even if we don't help King Yan, Cheng Jinzhi won't come back. ”

Yuan Peng looked at Princess Yuan Xi calmly, his eyes filled with mist.

"Do you think the prince will allow his enemy's child to come to this world safely?"
