Chapter 108: Keeping the Cloud Open

"Regrets?"

The prince's eyes turned slightly, and his words were full of disdain. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info he followed Zhao Xinzhi's gaze and looked up at the misty sky, and a dazzling sunlight suddenly shone down from the gap in the clouds, making him gradually squint his eyes.

"Thick clouds cover the sun, I don't see the green sun, my uncle said this, is he warning the palace?"

"I, a withered person who doesn't care about the world and is dying, how can I be qualified to warn His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? Since His Royal Highness insists on refusing to withdraw his troops, there is nothing the old man can do......

Zhao Xinzhi said that his eyes were loose, his calm face was still unfazed, and then he looked sideways at Gao Heng and the others who were standing on the side and watching coldly.

"His Royal Highness King Yan. He bowed his hand unhurriedly, "If you don't dislike it, please go to the house and sit for a while, how about a cup of tea?"

Gao Heng was slightly stunned, looked at Zhao Xinzhi's deep eyes, pondered for a moment, and then said happily: "Then there is Marquis Lao Zhao." ”

Zhao Xinzhi invited Gao Heng into the mansion in person, obviously to oppose his nephew, but no matter how bold the prince was, he did not dare to rush into the mansion with the city defense battalion.

After all, this threshold was close at hand, but once he led his troops to cross it, the nature of the matter would be very different.

Moreover, he still didn't believe that Gu Hanqing was willing to give up the vast family business accumulated by his ancestors for the sake of Gao Heng, and there must be something hidden in it that he didn't know.

can be seen from Gu Hanqing's deep watery eyes, but he can't see anything.

He originally wanted to use the Gu family to threaten and force Gu Hanqing to deal with Gao Heng. But at this moment, he no longer has enough patience to put a long line to catch a big fish, and continues to waste time on Gu Hanqing.

What he wants to do is to give up Gu Hanqing, a disobedient chess piece, and let Gao Heng become a chess saver.

Save a precarious game of dead chess.

"Uncle, you'd better figure out what you're doing. The crown prince raised his hand and straightened his clothes, and threatened emphatically, "Since you have withdrawn from the court, you should not take care of those things that should not be taken care of, so as not to accidentally get into trouble and not be able to spend your old age well." ”

But Zhao Xinzhi was not deterred by the prince's coercion at all, but turned over slightly and replied with a non-answer.

"Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is unwilling to go to the palace and sit down, and is unwilling to withdraw his troops and leave, then I can only forgive the old man for missing him. ”

As soon as the words fell, he slowly raised his hand and signaled to invite Gao Heng and the others to enter the mansion.

Gao Heng's attitude towards Zhao Xinzhi was not clear, and there was a faint sense of unspeakable strangeness in his heart, but he didn't have time to think about it because of the urgency of the situation, and he just wanted to avoid the limelight of the prince's pressing step by step, so he exchanged a look with Gu Hanqing and took the lead in taking a step.

And Cheng Jinzhi didn't want to stay here for a long time, but now that he saw that there was a place to take refuge, he couldn't ask for it in his heart, so he hurriedly followed quickly, lest a few sharp knives and a few sharp arrows fly behind him, chopping himself into garlic paste and slicing into potatoes.

But she was still worried that the prince would not give up, and after walking a few steps, she didn't forget to turn her head to see what kind of hideous and terrifying expression the prince had on his face at the moment.

It was such an action that made her inadvertently catch a glimpse of Zhao Xinzhi's right hand hidden in the long sleeve with half of his wrist exposed, as if he was making a gesture to the prince.

She looked at it intently, and this gesture of five fingers was clearly to tell the prince not to act rashly and retreat as soon as possible.

And the prince who was standing diagonally opposite him obviously saw Zhao Xinzhi's deliberate action, his eyes flashed, and although he had a very reluctant look on his face, he seemed to have understood it in his eyes.

"This Marquis Zhao was still fighting against the prince just now, what does it mean to be like this now? It doesn't necessarily mean to say goodbye, right?"

Cheng Jinzhi pursed his lips, thinking of the relationship between Zhao Xinzhi and the crown prince, and a sense of unease suddenly surged in his heart. Looking at the gate of the Hou Mansion in front of him, he suddenly felt that he had a feeling of being in the mouth of a tiger, and his steps, which were originally unhesitating, suddenly froze, and he blurted out before he had time to think.

"Wait. ”

As soon as she shouted like this, everyone, including Zhao Xinzhi, stopped, turned their heads and looked at her in surprise.

"What's wrong?"

"Your Highness, I... I don't think we'd better bother Marquis Zhao. After all... We are now carrying the suspect in the prince's mouth, and his identity is sensitive, so it will not be good if he involves the Hou Ye. ”

Cheng Jinzhi said intermittently, seeing that Zhao Xinzhi's deep eyes were staring at him motionlessly, his heart tightened, and all the thoughts in his head were suddenly intertwined, and he suddenly stopped talking.

"The princess doesn't mind. A kind smile appeared on Zhao Xinzhi's lips, "Zhao just invited a few people to sit in the house, drink a cup of tea and calm their minds, not involved in personal matters, and not talk about anything else, how can it be involved?"

"The ......"

Cheng Jinzhi blinked his eyes in confusion, but he couldn't think of any reason to refuse.

But in front of Zhao Xinzhi, she couldn't say anything about her doubts, and finally could only cast a look at Gao Heng for help, hoping that he would understand herself and make a correct judgment.

And Gao Heng stared at her in surprise, and every inch of his gaze penetrated into her eyes with doubt. After three seconds, he suddenly nodded with a restrained expression and said, "The princess is right." Hou Ye is a quiet place that is not contaminated with the court, we just disturb it rashly, if Hou Ye gets into trouble, it is indeed inappropriate. ”

Hearing Gao Heng's face-to-face help, Cheng Jinzhi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, looked up and caught a glimpse of Gu Hanqing looking at him quietly, and raised the corners of his mouth unnaturally, with a slight ripple floating in his eyes.

"Then Your Highness is willing to hand over this Young Master Gu to the crown prince?"

Zhao Xinzhi glanced at the prince who was watching coldly under the stone steps and the city defense camp waiting for orders around, and his tone was slightly heavier than before.

However, before Gao Heng could open his mouth to answer this sharp question, a slight commotion suddenly came from the alley that was surrounded by the city defense army, which made Zhao Xinzhi immediately frown with concern.

"Is the help coming?"

Cheng Jinzhi's eyes lit up, and he looked in the direction where the voice came from, and when his brows stretched out, he suddenly brightened.

"What's going on?"

The prince turned his head impatiently and glanced back, his face full of displeasure. At the same time, a soldier of the city defense battalion had already hurried to him.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, it was Cen Changsi who broke in with the people of the Tu Ling Division. ”

"Tu Ling Division, what kind of excitement is Tu Ling Si coming to join in at this time?

The prince raised his hand suddenly, but saw that the soldier had a sad face and lowered his head.

"Your Highness, Cen Changsi said that he holds His Majesty's holy decree, and whoever dares to stop it is a disobedience to the decree and disobeys ......"
