Chapter 158: Helping the Grace of the Aftermath (1)

There is actually a family letter, and Cui Jishu doesn't have the courage to casually talk nonsense to deceive Gao Cheng. But no one knew that this letter was not sent by Mrs. Lou, the princess, nor by Yuan Zhonghua, the princess and princess Feng Yi, but by Gao Cheng's second brother Gao Yang, the prince of Taiyuan.

In the letter, in the tone of the princess Lou, she first said that the princess Yuan Zhonghua had passed the childbirth period but there was no movement, and even the emperor Yuan Shanjian in the palace was alarmed, and assigned the imperial doctor to go to the general's mansion every day to diagnose the pulse of the princess, and sent Lin Xingren, a regular attendant in the palace, to the general's mansion every day to reward various things. Later, he said that the childbirth process of the princess was hard, and for several days and nights, she was almost worried about her life, and finally gave birth to a daughter. The latter words were vague and unclear, neither saying how Yuan Zhonghua was, nor how his daughter was.

Gao Cheng read this letter, and he was skeptical, a little unable to believe that such a thing would happen.

And Cui Jishu has also read this letter. Cui Jishu had a skeptical attitude, but he couldn't do anything about it. Such a letter that can mess with the main heart of the man is not like the usual style of the princess Lou from the point of view.

What made Cui Jishu even more surprised and frightened was that Lord Lang was silent when he read the letter. He understands Gao Cheng's thoughts better than anyone else, this is because he misses the princess. originally thought that this clan girl was named a princess because she was selected as the princess of the Bohai King, and she was named because of Gao Cheng, and the marriage between the two was just a political marriage. Shizi is a person who is used to being held by the stars since he was a child, and no matter how willing a woman is, she will not take it very seriously, because there are too many such people. He has also seen too many things that Gao Cheng holds in front of others in his heart and then leaves behind him. It's just that I don't understand why I care so much about a princess who is not my choice.

Gao Cheng and Cui Jishu didn't know about it, and in fact, it was not what was written in the family letter at all.

A few days before Princess Feng Yi's birth date Yuan Zhonghua, someone from the Bohai Royal Mansion suddenly came to pick up the princess, saying that Concubine Lou sent her. Yuan Zhonghua naturally went to the Bohai Royal Mansion without suspicion. Of course, Ah Jiao also took the slave and maid to the Bohai Palace.

When she arrived at the palace, Concubine Lou ordered someone to spread the news that the general was out on an expedition, and she was afraid that there would be no one to take care of her in the general's mansion, so she wanted to keep the princess here for a few days, so she asked Ah Jiao and others to go to clean up the dormitory quickly, and asked the princess to go to the courtyard where Concubine Lou lived to rest for the time being.

The Bohai Royal Mansion is a place that Yuan Zhonghua is very familiar with, so he followed Concubine Lou's instructions and let Ah Jiao and the others go first. Yuan Zhonghua thought that he would greet Concubine Lou in the future, but he didn't see Gao Yuanjun, so he only took two slaves and maids to the courtyard where Concubine Lou lived behind.

Along the way, Yuan Zhonghua didn't notice that there seemed to be a lot less people in the Bohai Palace, and it was a little abnormally quiet. Until the back of the house, I couldn't even see the shadow of the slave. There is a bamboo forest in front of the courtyard where Mrs. Lou lives, which originally seemed to have a winding path, but seeing this bamboo forest today only made Yuan Zhonghua feel an indescribable weirdness.

Two unknown slaves opened the door and welcomed Yuan Zhonghua in. And the two slaves who followed Yuan Zhonghua were separated. When the gate of the courtyard was closed behind Yuan Zhonghua, the two slaves and maids who welcomed her in respectfully helped the princess into Concubine Lou's usual place, but neither of the two slaves said a word.

When the door closed behind her, the princess Yuan Zhonghua saw Taiyuan Gong Gao Yang in front of her at a glance.

Without Concubine Lou, the slaves and maids also retreated, and there were only two people in this room, her and Gao Yang. Gao Yang, who was originally seated, had already got up and left his seat the moment he saw her come in, and walked over to her. She suddenly realized that he had been born so tall and strong. It's because she hasn't paid attention to him for too long, too long, and he's no longer the Zijin brother she met when she was a child.

Gao Yang is dressed in black, he doesn't like to be gorgeous, he doesn't like to decorate, he always seems to be dressed like this, and it is too difficult for him to attract the attention of others by the side of his overly radiant brother Gao Cheng. When he walked in front of Yuan Zhonghua, he formed a gloomy hint in her heart. Originally, the sun outside was so good, and this room would be bright and warm without this person, but at this moment, this claustrophobic space was full of gloomy smell because of this person's existence.

"Duke Taiyuan," Yuan Zhonghua raised his face to look at Gao Yang and asked unhappily, "What about the concubine?" Why are you here? ”

"The mother concubine has already returned to Jinyang." Gao Yang was not in a hurry or panic in the face of Yuan Zhonghua's questioning, and he couldn't see that he was a little stupid or stupid. On the contrary, his eyes were sharp, but they were endlessly cold. "His Royal Highness is really estranged from me, and they all call me Duke Taiyuan." He took two more steps up, and the distance between him and Yuan Zhonghua was close enough to smell her breath. He took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, "I only want you to call me my son into my brother." ”

Yuan Zhonghua immediately turned around and wanted to walk towards the door. She had already understood, it turned out that Concubine Lou was no longer in the mansion, and it was Gao Yang who pretended to pass on Concubine Lou's words and designed to coax her. Today, the real lord of the Bohai Royal Mansion in Yecheng is already Gao Yang. Suddenly, I felt a trip under my feet, the hem of my skirt was stepped on, and I was unprepared in advance, and my body fell forward.

Yuan Zhonghua still thought it would be simple.

In fact, it is not only the Bohai Palace. Gao Cheng was so willing to take his younger brother to the throne, helped him get on the horse and gave him a ride, and even arranged the people who assisted him one by one. The father is still in Jinyang, and the brother is in Chang'an, not to mention the Bohai Palace, and even Yecheng is almost about to become the world of Gaoyang.

Of course, Gao Yang would not let her fall to the ground, and he had already stretched out his arms to get her back. Yuan Zhonghua's stomach was strangled by him so hard, and he didn't fall when he came back, but at the same time, his stomach was compressed and very uncomfortable, and he slowly began to have an indescribable feeling of falling pain.

"Where is Your Highness going?" Gao Yang's body was close to her back, and the arm wrapped around Yuan Zhonghua's abdomen did not retract, but he actually gently rubbed Yuan Zhonghua's stomach with his palm, and gradually used force on his arm to take Yuan Zhonghua into his arms more tightly, while whispering, "The mother concubine said, the general is out on the expedition, and the princess is not at ease in the mansion alone, so I took you over to take care of it." ”

Somehow, Gao Yang obviously had an understatement tone, but it just revealed a wisp of coldness.

Yuan Zhonghua wanted to push Gao Yang away, but she had no strength now, so she could only turn her head and breathe, "Since the concubine has returned to Jinyang, I won't stay here." Lao Taiyuan ordered someone to send me back to the General's Mansion. ”

When she turned her head, Gao Yang lowered her head, her lips almost touched her sideburns, and she said regretfully, "Why doesn't Your Highness appreciate it?" What does it matter if the mother is not there? My eldest brother and I are inseparable. On Tenglong Mountain in Jinyang, the eldest brother can take care of the moonlight, and now that the eldest brother is not there, I can also take care of the eldest sister-in-law. That day, in front of the gate of this courtyard, the eldest sister-in-law also saw it, and the eldest brother was not rigid about the younger brother-in-law's behavior. Why didn't the eldest sister-in-law refuse today? Zijin was puzzled. Gao Yang was completely puzzled.

"You're not Zijin!" Yuan Zhonghua was extremely frightened in his heart. Accustomed to seeing her husband Gao Cheng obeying her everywhere, even if she was moody, she never used such scheming with her, and had such revenge, at this moment, she felt that Gao Yang's heart was gloomy enough to make her depressed and die, as if she was shrouded in a boundless net, and even felt hopeless. This is by no means the younger brother who grew up with her, and she doesn't know when he became like this. "When we met in Jinyang, the Li family was not your bride, how can you spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain?"

"You say the eldest brother is a gentleman? Is it a gentleman's act to molest his younger brother-in-law in public? Gao Yang's tone actually brought a hint of a smile to it.

"Since it's in public, where is the flirtation?" Yuan Zhonghua asked rhetorically, she had exhausted her strength, but she still couldn't break free from Gao Yang, and the pain of falling became stronger and stronger.

"The eldest sister-in-law has been married to the eldest brother for so long, and she still doesn't know who the eldest brother is?" Gao Yang suddenly grabbed Yuan Zhonghua's body and turned her around to face him.

He quickly put a hand into the collar, pulled out a jade pendant held by a five-colored silk thread, and stretched it out to Yuan Zhonghua's eyes, "I'm not Zijin?" Wasn't this jade pendant given to me by His Highness himself? His Highness has said that he has no regrets. Gao Yang's voice suddenly raised a lot, like a demon, "It's Zijin who wants to know Qing, not the eldest brother!" It is also Zijin who tosses and turns for His Royal Highness, and thinks about it, not the eldest brother. The eldest brother plays my bride, and I should repay it. Gao Yang suddenly looked down at Yuan Zhonghua's stomach.

"You're crazy!" Yuan Zhonghua no longer had any ideas, he just wanted to break free from Gao Yang as soon as possible. She could no longer look at this gloomy face, and could only resist with all her might, kicking and punching.

Gao Yang didn't pity it at all, pinched Yuan Zhonghua's shoulders hard, easily fixed her in his arms, and then lowered his head and kissed her wildly. The force he used was so great that Yuan Zhonghua couldn't bear it at all, and coupled with the stronger feeling of falling pain, he soon lost consciousness.

I don't know how long it was, Yuan Zhonghua felt as if he was awake and understood, and as if he was in a dream. She wanted to come to her senses completely, but she couldn't. It was as if something was blocking her heart and lungs, and she couldn't breathe. It seems that there are many pairs of eyes looking at her, calling her, as if they are all anxious for her. What's wrong with her? But only her husband Gao Cheng was missing. Suddenly, in the chaos, she saw a pair of eyes like lightning, slashing at her like sharp blades.

"Husband!" Yuan Zhonghua shouted hard, and felt that this shout was useless at all, and no sound came out.

But her eyes suddenly lit up, and she actually saw Gao Cheng in front of her. Yuan Zhonghua was surprised and delighted, she had experienced so many things just now, and it was like a dream when she thought about it, and she finally saw Gao Cheng, and she was full of relief that she had regained.

"Husband!" Yuan Zhonghua called out loudly, and ran towards Gao Cheng, but he didn't know why, his feet were floating and weak, and he didn't have the kind of steadiness that he usually stepped on, and he felt like he was being blown forward by the wind. At this time, she saw Gao Cheng turn around.

As soon as Gao Cheng turned around, Yuan Zhonghua was even more surprised. The husband seemed to be looking at her, but he didn't seem to be looking at her. His eyes were red and swollen, and his green eyes were full of melancholy, was this still her beautiful husband? She had never seen Gao Cheng like this.

And at this time, if you take a closer look, what surprised Yuan Zhonghua even more was Gao Cheng's clothes, which were neither court clothes nor hakama. Mai, sparse shoes, crown cloth tassels, and the head and waist of the linen belt, which made Yuan Zhonghua feel that he looked very strange. Then I took a closer look, and I was shocked that Gao Cheng was actually wearing Qi Yuan's mourning clothes.

Before Yuan Zhonghua could ask carefully, he suddenly saw a person coming behind Gao Cheng, holding a long sword and going straight to him. It was actually her brother, Emperor Yuan Shanjian. Yuan Shan saw that his face was full of murderous energy, and slashed towards Gao Cheng with a sword. Yuan Zhonghua exclaimed, fortunately, the sword was not slashed. But soon, a large group of people came up from nowhere, clansmen, ministers, officials, generals...... Everyone shouted to Gao Cheng, southerners and northerners, and the crowd was excited. Some sneered, some talked loudly, and some directly swung their blades, some of them were recognized by Yuan Zhonghua, but some of them had never seen it at all.

Yuan Zhonghua didn't understand why so many people suddenly pointed to her husband. Seeing that Gao Cheng couldn't defeat Yuan Shanjian with the paulownia wood cutting staff in his hand, Yuan Shanjian himself was also a brave man who could carry a stone lion over the wall. And what's even more terrifying is that a large group of people slowly gathered around, obviously to help Yuan Shanjian. Yuan Zhonghua rushed over desperately. She was suddenly grabbed.

The person who grabbed her clothes was Gao Yang. Gao Yang looked at her coldly.

"Zijin, go and save him." Yuan Zhonghua had long forgotten everything just now, and turned to Yang and Gao Yang.

Gao Yang watched indifferently, the fingers of his two hands were entangled, obviously very entangled in his heart.

However, it was too late, and at this time, an arrow suddenly broke through the air, and it was high in the chest. Gao Cheng fell to the ground and died, bleeding on the spot.

"Ah Hui!" Yuan Zhonghua shouted. She suddenly felt clearly that she was really crying out.
