Chapter 22: The Flat Turmoil
"Jin Zhi, Jin Zhi, what's wrong with you?"
Gao Xun was surprised by Cheng Jinzhi's sudden change, and just wanted to turn around to find out, but she suddenly grabbed her wrist in a panic. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Let's go!"
"Cheng Jinzhi, it's really you, don't think that I don't recognize you if you pretend to be a man!"
However, before she could take a step, the sharp voice behind her had already stumbled her steps.
There is no doubt that this voice is coming from one of the people Cheng Jinzhi is most afraid of seeing, that is, her second sister, Cheng Xiuning.
"Who are you, what do you want to do?"
Gao Xun saw Cheng Jinzhi's uneasy look, and without thinking, he withdrew in front of him.
He looked at Cheng Xiuning strangely, only to feel that although the woman in front of him looked dignified, there was always a sense of pretentiousness between her words and deeds, and she looked arrogant, and she was a character who was not easy to provoke.
"You don't even know who I am?" Cheng Xiuning snorted coldly, and also looked at Gao Xun with strange eyes, "Then who are you?"
"If you tell me, I'll tell you. β
"You tell me first, and I'll tell you. β
"If you don't tell me, I won't tell you. β
"Why did you want me to tell you first if you didn't tell me?"
ββ¦β¦β
"It's really a narrow road, I didn't expect it to be difficult to meet acquaintances in a trip.
Cheng Xiuning, I really owe you in my last life!"
Cheng Jinzhi hid behind Gao Xun and listened to the conversation between the two of them, angrily picked up his fist and knocked on Gao Xun, who was still unrelenting, and whispered in his ear: "Can you stop playing, she is my second sister, let's go!"
"What? She's your second sister?"
Gao Xun shouted out in shock, it was too late to close his mouth, and Cheng Jinzhi on the side was so angry that he almost turned his back on him, and he couldn't wait to smash Gao Heng out of the clouds with one punch.
"Yo Cheng Jinzhi, did you finally admit it?" Cheng Xiu walked forward with a sly smile, pretending to be puzzled, "But... Aren't you supposed to be in prison? Why did you get out with a man? Why? Now the condemned prisoners can be ransomed?"
"What death row prisoner?, how do you speak?" Cheng Jinzhi had already wanted to leave, but Gao Xun came to the end, "Let me tell you, I don't care which family's daughter you are, there is my third brother on the head of the golden branch....."
Seeing that Gao Xun was about to shake out the truth with confidence, Cheng Jinzhi glanced at it, and hurriedly poured the white fungus snow lotus soup sold at the roadside stall towards Cheng Xiuning.
By the time Cheng Xiuning reacted, Cheng Jinzhi and his party had already entered the crowd and disappeared.
"This Cheng Jinzhi dares to splash me with something!"
Cheng Xiuning stomped her feet with anger on her face, and when her tongue licked the sugar water on the side of her mouth, she suddenly calmed down again: "This is quite sweet, what is it?"
Lan Xin was stunned, and could only reply: "Miss, this should be white fungus snow lotus soup." β
Cheng Xiuning nodded, looking at Lan Xin's surprised expression, only then did she realize that she was in trouble, and scolded again: "What are you answering me for? It's all because you didn't block it for me, now not only can't you even go to the night market, but also let that Cheng Jinzhi run away!"
"Slaves deserve to die, slaves deserve to die. β
Lan Xin took out a handkerchief to wipe her face for Cheng Xiuning with an aggrieved face, and couldn't help but be moved to tears in her heart by having such a "reasonable" master.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
"Don't run away, Jin Zhi, here... It's almost time to reach the palace, and they can't catch up. β
After running for a whole street non-stop, the three of them were already tired and panting, Cheng Jinzhi looked at the empty street behind him, and then let go of Gao Xun angrily.
"Jin Zhi, you splashed my third brother's face with herbal tea last time, and this time you splashed your second sister's face with sweet soup, you are really amazing. β
"Hmph, I'm going to pour a pot of hot chili oil on your face right now. β
Cheng Jinzhi glared at Gao Xun angrily, but he had no heart to deal with him.
The situation was urgent just now, and she didn't have extra time to think and worry, but now that she calmed down, her whole person fell into a panic of revealing her identity.
Because Cheng Jinzhi knows better than anyone else that his second sister is a well-known "troublemaker", I am afraid that there is no need to wait until tomorrow, and the whole Cheng Mansion, including the rats who made holes in the firewood room, will know about her meeting Cheng Jinzhi in the night market.
"It's been an eventful timeβ"
Cheng Jinzhi rubbed his face vigorously, looked up to the sky and sighed, and saw Gao Xun beside him suddenly blaming himself.
"Jin Zhi, don't be angry, I can't get used to seeing your second sister bullying you so much, and I want to vent my anger for you, I didn't mean to hurt you. β
Although he said a bunch of things that he didn't have, Cheng Jinzhi didn't really blame Gao Xun in his heart. She didn't know that although Gao Xun was straightforward, his original intention was also to protect her.
"It's a blessing or a curse, it's a curse that can't be avoided, I don't blame you. β
Cheng Jinzhi reluctantly squeezed out a smiling face to chat for comfort, looked at the Yanwang Mansion that was silent in the night mist, and suddenly quickened his pace.
"Let's go back quickly. β
At this moment, in Cheng Jinzhi's mind, only this Yanwang Mansion not far away can make her feel at ease.
Because this is the only shelter she can live in now.
It was the owner of this mansion who brought her out of that dark prison.
Because he ran out secretly, Cheng Jinzhi didn't dare to enter through the gate blatantly, so he could only turn into the back door from the alleys on both sides of the palace.
In the dead of night, the group secretly pushed the door in like thieves, and Taxue took the lead in stepping into the backyard to look around, and only after confirming that it was correct beckoned Gao Xun and Cheng Jinzhi in.
"Jin Zhi, I told you a long time ago that my plan is seamless and will not be discovered by the third brother. β
Seeing that the surrounding wind and waves were calm, Gao Xun quickly relaxed his vigilance.
"That's really gratifying. Cheng Jinzhi leaned against the pillars of the cloister and gasped, "He is usually scary enough, and it must be even more terrifying to be angry, in case he knows that I sneaked out and revealed my identity, it must be a nightmare......
"Why do you dare to run out when you know?"
As soon as Cheng Jinzhi's voice fell, between the swaying lights, the voice she least wanted to hear tepidly floated from the other end of the corridor, frightening her and Gao Xun to stumble on the snow, and they were suddenly shocked.
"There is no Amitabha Buddha in the south, there is no Amitabha Buddha in the south....."
The three of them folded their hands and bowed in the direction from which the sound came, and their mouths were chattering, as if they had hit a ghost.
"What are you doing? Am I a demon?"
Cheng Jinzhi raised his head suddenly, and saw Gao Heng standing in front of her with a lantern, the light flickering on his face, frightening the three people who were originally like frightened birds.
Gao Heng looked at Cheng Jinzhi and Gao Xun's exaggerated behavior, hooked the corners of his mouth helplessly, and pretended to cough a few times and said, "Okay, the ghost is crying wolf in the middle of the night, do you want to wake everyone up?"
"Three... Third brother, is it really you?" Gao Xun smiled at Gao Heng with a trembling smile, "It's so late, you are here like this?"
"Of course, I'm here for you to come back. β
Gao Heng smiled coldly and looked at Cheng Jinzhi, who was hiding behind Gao Xun without saying a word, "Don't forget, this is my mansion, and I know exactly who said and did what here." β
As soon as Taxue heard this, he immediately knelt down in fear.
"Your Highness, it's all your fault that the slave maid didn't take a good look at Miss Cheng, it's all the slave's fault, please punish Your Highness. β
"One person does things and one person does things, it's not about Treading Snow and His Royal Highness King Jin, it's... I forced them to take me out. β
Cheng Jinzhi saw the panicked and aggrieved appearance of Taxue, after all, he couldn't bear it, and stood up from behind Gao Xun with a "righteous and awe-inspiring" expression, with a sad and indignant expression of generosity to death.
"It seems that you are still a loving master. β
Gao Heng sent off the snow and slowly approached Cheng Jinzhi. Although there was a few smiles on the corners of his mouth, there was no smile in his eyes, which made people shudder.
"Tell me, in front of whom did you reveal your identity?"
"I... I... It wasn't meant to be..."
Faced with Gao Heng's aggressive questioning, Cheng Jinzhi stumbled for a long time, but couldn't say anything.
"Let me ask you again, in front of whom did you reveal your identity?"
"Third brother, don't be so fierce..... The golden bough has ......"
Gao Heng glanced at Gao Xun coldly, Gao Xun trembled between his eyebrows, and closed his mouth aggrievedly.
Say. β
"It's... It's my second sister!"
Cheng Jinzhi almost cried out.
"Third brother, you should think of a way, although Lord Cheng is still in Nanchu now, he will be back in a few days. β
"That's for the best. Gao Heng was silent for a long time, and then said expressionlessly, "When he comes back, let him take this troublesome daughter away." β
After speaking, he didn't even glance at Cheng Jinzhi, and disappeared into the night with his sleeves.
"It's over, he's really angry this time. β
Cheng Jinzhi looked at Gao Heng's distant back, with a bitter face and a pout, suddenly feeling that he had done a big mistake.
