"What does Your Highness mean by asking?"

Seeing that Yuan Peng's face and tone changed suddenly, the eyes of the jade pot, which had originally returned to peace, trembled. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It was like someone suddenly saw through the conspiracy in her heart, even if she tried her best to hide it, there was still a trace of nervousness and helplessness in the corners of her eyes.

And all of this was naturally seen by Yuan Peng, who was close at hand.

"I remember you told me that when you were a child, you went to the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty with your parents to make a living by doing business and doing some small business, but you encountered a natural disaster on the way and both parents died, so you were left alone in the capital. Later, you were sold into slavery to a large family by mistake, and it wasn't until a few months ago that you were kicked out for doing something wrong. And you are homeless and homesick, so you used your life savings to buy off the general guarding the customs, so that she could let you out of the customs and return to your home country, but later you met me at the foot of the bamboo cliff and sacrificed your life to save me. ”

Yuan Peng paced around the jade pot while thinking about telling her about her life experience before, and then stopped and walked in front of the jade pot, his eyes narrowed with a grim expression.

"That's what you told me, right?"

"What the jade pot said is true, and there is no intention of deceiving His Highness. ”

The jade pot deliberately avoided Yuan Peng's fierce gaze, and after pursing the corners of his lips, he knelt down again.

"The reason why I didn't tell His Royal Highness that he had been used by the prince was because the jade pot was just an insignificant slave in front of the prince, and he hadn't even seen the face of this master a few times, and he was later instructed by him to frame Princess Yan, so he felt guilty, so he didn't want to mention it. Second, he was naturally afraid that after saying this, His Royal Highness would have a grudge against the jade pot, and it was inevitable that he would be suspicious. That's all. ”

The tone of the jade pot is very sincere and sincere, and it really doesn't feel like there is any concealment and deception.

However, Yuan Peng was not relieved by her explanation, and his eyes were still full of doubts and glowing with a deep glow.

"Really?"

I saw him nod thoughtfully, retract his gaze from the jade pot, and instead land on the point of nothingness in front of him.

"But when you and I met, I hadn't decided to accompany Xi'er into the week at all, so naturally I wouldn't have thought that I would cooperate with the prince in the future. How did you expect that I would be suspicious of you because of the crown prince?"

"I ......"

Hearing this, the jade pot tightened his eyebrows, and for a while he was speechless for Yuan Peng's questioning, and as soon as he moved his lips, he heard Yuan Peng continue.

"Also, now that I think about it, it was too much of a coincidence that you saved me from Wuzhu Cliff. We're not close to each other, we've never met before, so why would you go out of your way to save a stranger?"

"Because my parents died in Wuzhu Cliff. ”

Hearing Yuan Peng's words, the jade pot's crystal eyes suddenly dimmed, and his eyes drooped in a low voice.

"That's how I watched them die in front of my eyes. They crushed me under me to save me, but I was hit by a falling stone and never got back up. ”

Although her tone was calm, Yuan Peng could feel that even though she continued to pretend to be tenacious, she was actually trying her best to suppress it.

I don't want this indelible scar to be exposed to others after years of washing.

The scar is clearly visible, so clear that the people around you can empathize with it, and it doesn't look like it's faked at all.

"I know that Wuzhu Cliff is the only way back to Dachu, but the reason why I was there that day was also to mourn my deceased parents in my hometown. But I never thought that it would be so coincidental and repeat the accident again. And when I saw His Highness in distress, it was like seeing my parents who died here back then, maybe I was so desperate, just to get myself a psychological comfort that I couldn't do anything about it when I was a child, right?"

The jade pot said word by word, as if reminiscing, and as if blaming himself, and there was a heavy haze floating between his eyebrows.

"I'm sorry, I lost my words. ”

Looking at the hidden sadness and tears in the depths of the jade pot's eyes, Yuan Peng put away the stern look in his eyes and apologized softly.

"It doesn't matter, it's been a long time, I was so young that I can't even remember what they looked like. ”

The jade pot tucked the pain that overflowed into his eyes under his slender eyebrows, raised his head and evoked a bitter smile as if he were comforting himself.

"I know that you must have suffered a lot all these years of being single and displaced, although I shouldn't continue to expose your scars at this time......"

But having said that, Yuan Peng is still a person who will pity the fragrance and cherish the jade.

Seeing him say this, he leaned down and took out a handkerchief and handed it to the jade pot, hesitated for a moment, although he regained his previous solemnity, but his tone was a little calmer.

"However, since you left your homeland and came to Da Zhou when you were very young, who taught you this martial arts? And I remember very well that when the prince saw you, he didn't know that you had martial arts at all. ”

He let out a sigh of helplessness as he spoke, and when he raised his eyes again, his eyes overflowed with a complicated look.

"Jade Pot, you saved me, I am indeed grateful to you, and I did not mean to target you. It's that there are so many doubts about you that I have to be on guard. As the so-called suspicious person does not need, you should understand this truth. ”

"Jade pot understands. ”

In the face of Yuan Peng's unrelenting step-by-step pressing, the jade pot slowly raised his eyes to meet Yuan Peng's deep eyes, stared for a moment, and suddenly relaxed the tightness and heaviness on his face.

As if he had finally made up his mind, a relieved smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

"It seems that what the king said is right, His Royal Highness King Heng is thoughtful and witty, and he is definitely not the kind of person who can be easily fooled. It's just that I didn't expect to have to be honest about everything so soon. ”

"What?

Yuan Peng's eyes widened in surprise when he heard this, and he didn't expect that the jade pot in front of him would have anything to do with King Chu.

In his heart, although there are many doubts on the jade pot, at most it may be the eyeliner sent by his enemies to lurk around him.

No matter how you think about it, you shouldn't have any connection with the king of Chu, who is the king of a country.

At this moment, he suddenly felt as if he had fallen into a huge conspiracy and mystery that had been designed by someone else a long time ago.

After being stunned for a long time, he approached the jade pot with some emotion, and after taking a heavy breath, his voice was full of emotion.

"What the hell is going on? What is the relationship between you and your father?"
