Chapter 330: Thin Moon Clear Frost
The moonlight was hazy, the night breeze was slightly cool, and a few faintly shone stars loomed in the thin clouds, like a person's sleepy eyes. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoCompared with the bright lights, Yanwang Mansion, which is still immersed in the hustle and bustle, is much quieter and quieter outside.
Even the air that rushes into the tip of the nose is full of the unique freshness and comfort of the night, which makes people relax and calm down at the same time.
Thanks to Gao Xun and Cheng Xiuning, the banquet that was originally about to end became more lively for a while.
Taking advantage of the fact that people were focused on the farce of Gao Xun and Cheng Xiuning, Cheng Jinzhi quietly withdrew from the crowd, turned around, and slipped out of the back door of the palace alone after bypassing the lonely back garden.
The reason why she dared to leave with peace of mind and did not go to calm the turmoil in person was because she expected that this incident would be just a farce in the eyes of outsiders, and it would not affect the Yanwang Mansion or cause any trouble to Gao Xun.
Besides, Gao Xun is not the kind of person who holds grudges, even if he was slapped by Cheng Xiuning inexplicably, he would not really care about it in the end, and it would be too difficult for her.
And with Cheng Sujin here, even though Cheng Xiuning is arrogant, she doesn't dare to act too recklessly, and in the end, she will calm things down and go home obediently with a stomach.
At this time, if he is caught in the middle, he will be considered by the Cheng sisters as having ulterior motives, deliberately favoritism, and being regarded as a bad person in vain.
But speaking of which, although he was a little troubled by Gao Xun and Cheng Xiuning just now, but now that he calms down and thinks about it, Cheng Jinzhi inexplicably feels that these two people are indeed a bit of a match from some perspectives.
She has always hoped that Gao Xun can find a woman who she truly loves and can grow old with her, and live this life happily and smoothly.
Fighting for power and power, such dark words as deceit are incommensurate with him.
However, even so, she couldn't associate the image of this woman with her "terrible" second sister.
Cheng Jinzhi smiled helplessly when he thought about it, stepped out of the mansion and stretched his waist against the night breeze, and suddenly felt that his tense body and spirit were much soothed and relaxed at this moment.
She could faintly hear the sound of joy coming from the main courtyard, and looking at the reflection of a single figure on the ground, she suddenly felt a sense of loneliness inexplicably.
In fact, before this, she deliberately went back to the backyard and went to her door to sneak a glance.
As a result, of course, Gao Heng still stayed with Princess Yuanxi and did not appear in front of her as she expected.
Otherwise, she wouldn't be standing here alone at this moment.
"I don't want to think about it, anyway, this beautiful night in front of me belongs to me alone. ”
Cheng Jinzhi shook his head vigorously as he spoke, wanting to empty the complicated thoughts in his mind, but as soon as the words fell, he was surprised to hear an extremely familiar voice suddenly sound behind him.
"But no matter how beautiful this night is, it will eventually pass. What about you after dawn. ”
There was silence in all directions, and there was no half of a figure in sight, but this voice came suddenly, which startled Cheng Jinzhi, and in a panic, he hurriedly turned around in a panic.
But the moment she caught a glimpse of the voice owner, the look of surprise in her eyes gradually faded, and it was covered with a complex and deep haze.
"Cold... Hanqing, it's so late, why are you here, it scared me. ”
Looking at Gu Hanqing, who looked calm in front of him, Cheng Jinzhi pursed the corners of his lips a little unnaturally, not expecting him to appear at this time.
But soon she realized that today Gao Heng and Princess Yuanxi got married, and he, as Gao Heng's best friend, should come to watch the ceremony.
It's just that Cheng Jinzhi is very sure that he has never seen him in the palace just now.
"His Royal Highness King Yan is married, since I am invited, according to the rules, I should naturally go to the mansion for a banquet. ”
The corners of Gu Hanqing's mouth hooked a faint arc, but his eyes when he looked at Cheng Jinzhi were full of distress and pity.
"That's right. ”
Cheng Jinzhi nodded, deliberately avoiding his gaze, but the smile on his face was very stiff.
"But, I didn't see you just now, and I thought you had something to do, so I couldn't come. ”
"I didn't take half a step into the door, of course you can't see me. ”
Gu Hanqing's gaze was still tightly locked on Cheng Jinzhi's body, and although his tone sounded light and light, it fell on Cheng Jinzhi's ears, but there was an inexplicable sense of sadness and sourness.
"Eh, it's all here, why don't you come in?"
Looking at Cheng Jinzhi's deliberately evasive eyes, Gu Hanqing took a step closer, stared at him, and then said a sentence extremely seriously.
"Jin Zhi, why didn't I come in, don't you know?"
Listening to Gu Hanqing's simple and straightforward question, Cheng Jinzhi's heart trembled, and his eyes flashed slightly, but he didn't know how to answer.
Of course, she knew that the reason why Gu Hanqing didn't go to the banquet was all because of herself.
This state of mind is just like a few days ago in the peach forest in the backyard of the palace, he pointed his sword at Gao Heng and questioned loudly.
But in front of Gu Hanqing, she would rather pretend to be stupid than throw this answer in front of the two.
"Hanqing, some things have passed......"
"I know what you're trying to say. ”
Before Cheng Jinzhi could finish speaking, Gu Hanqing interrupted him, and a hidden sadness appeared in his deep eyes.
"It's just that for me, it never passed. ”
He spoke softly, raising his eyes, his gaze slightly condensed, and his gaze fell on the high wall that stood in front of him.
"Jin Zhi, do you know? Tonight's situation and this scene, just like when you and His Royal Highness King Yan got married, I stood in front of the door, listening to the festive and lively sound of silk and bamboo, knowing that the bride was you, knowing that you were about to become someone else's wife, but I never had the courage to walk in, I didn't have the courage to look at you, and ask you more. ”
Gu Hanqing said this, he pondered for a moment, as if he was adjusting his emotions, and after a while, he continued: "I originally thought that this was a kind of fulfillment. Even if the pain and sorrow increase for a long time to come, as long as you are happy, I feel satisfied. But now, I realize that I did it wrong at all. ”
"Cold ......"
Cheng Jinzhi stared at his cold side face in a daze, and suddenly felt that his whole heart was tangled together.
"Because the moment you stepped out of the gate just now, I saw the shadow of my day in you. I understand how painful this feeling is. ”
