Chapter 335

As night fell, she and ah Chen got into a carriage and quietly left the yard.

"Where do you want to go?" Ah Chen took her hand and held it tightly.

"Yes, by the river." Gong Yue smiled.

"By the river?"

When the carriage drove to the river and stopped, Gong Yueyue immediately jumped out of the carriage and shouted, just like a bird locked in a cage for a long time. Ah Chen stood behind him with a smile on his face and his eyes full of doting.

"Ah Chen." Gong Yueyue ran to him cheerfully and took his hand: "is there a boat near here?"

"Boat?" Ah Chen looked left and right strangely: "this --"

"Isn't there?"

"Of course." Ah Chen nodded immediately: "you just want to go to the water, don't you?"

"Yes." Gong Yue nodded.

"It's not easy." He put his hand around her waist and flew lightly.

"Ah!" Gong Yueyue couldn't help shouting. He felt his whole body hanging in the air. Looking down from this angle, he only saw the sparkling water.

"How nice." Gong Yueyue nodded and smiled, "can you let me down?"

"What are you talking about, you?" Ah Chen's eyes floated a few Annoyances: "if I put it, don't you fall into the water?"

"Will you?" Gong Yueyue blinked: "why don't you try?"

"Try it?" Ah Chen smiled: "are you sure?"

"I haven't found a chance, and."

"And what?"

"One thing, I'm very uncertain."

"Not sure what?"

"I'm not sure if I can survive."

"What are you talking about?"

Ah Chen was surprised.

"You know, in this troubled world, it's not easy for a woman to survive alone. I'm not sure what will happen in the future, so..."

"Stop talking." Ah Chen hurriedly interrupted her: "remember, in the future, as long as I live, I will never let you face any crisis alone. What should I do?"

"The notes left by the Marquis say that there is a huge secret in this river. If anyone has mastered this secret, he can control the whole Hedu city."

"What are you talking about?" Ah Chen was surprised.

"After listening to me, the note also said that the closer you get to this secret, the more dangerous it will be. Maybe..."

"Knowing the danger, are you going?"

"I..."

"You don't have to say. Whatever the secret is, you are the most important to me."

"All right." Gong Yueyue nodded and glanced at the deep river - since she decided to be with ah Chen from the bottom of her heart, she tried every means to solve all the difficulties for him. She knew that ah Chen was most concerned about the safety of Hedu city. Then she suddenly remembered a paragraph she had inadvertently seen in the days of Guangwei Hou house.

"Let's go back." On that day, they were so close to the secret that they missed it after all.

When I got back to the yard, it was nearly one watch. Ah Chen personally called hot water to wash me.

After going to bed, ah Chen held her tightly and refused to let go.

About half an hour later, he fell asleep and snored evenly. Gong Yueyue stared at him with wide eyes, but his heart became more and more painful.

Once upon a time, Gong Yueyue was also a gentle and considerate girl. She always thought that her kindness could get the same feedback from the world, but what she got was hurt again and again. Gradually, she became discouraged and felt that no one in the world was worth her love.

Until he met ah Chen, he was so sure that he was unwilling to give up and stop. Even at the most critical moment, he was still thinking of her.

Ah Chen, ah Chen, fell in his arms. Gong Yueyue closed his eyes and provoked a few faint smiles on his lips.

I am only willing to love you, keep you, and share peace and happiness forever.

"Joan, what do you think of this hairpin?"

At noon the next day, Gong Yueyue was sitting at the table, peeling lotus seeds carefully. Ah Chen suddenly came in with a happy face.

"What?" Gong Yue looked up at him.

"This." He went to the table and put a box in front of Gong Yueyue.

"What is it?"

Gong Yueyue took the box and opened it to see that there was a jade hairpin inside.

"This hairpin is very expensive, isn't it?"

"Come on." Ah Chen picked up the hairpin, obliquely inserted it into her hair, and looked at Gong Yueyue with a smile: "sure enough, my qiong'er is the most beautiful. No matter how she dresses up, she is so beautiful."

"You..."

"You come with me." Ah Chen took her hand, went out of the room, went to the side room in the front yard, stood in front of the door, and his face showed a few mysterious smiles.

Gong Yueyue's eyes couldn't help being more curious. He stretched out his hand and pushed the door. Suddenly, a piece of brilliance came into his eyes.

That——

Fengguan, Xiayu, royal clothes.

The things on the table dazzled her, but it was his good intentions that shocked her.

Gong Yueyue went to the table and looked at it in amazement.

"What?" He stretched out his hands from behind and put them around her waist: "do you like it? Do you like it very much? "

Gong Yueyue had no words, but her mind flashed into the palace. On the day she entered the palace, she was wearing Chinese makeup, sitting in a soft sedan chair and slowly left for the palace. Her mother's low cry kept ringing in her ear: "qiong'er, my qiong'er, how can you have such a hard life?"

Gong Yue doesn't understand.

In her simple life, she really doesn't understand what the harem means to a woman.

Even though she had no feelings for the man she had never met, there was no one else in her heart. What she inherited was just a kind of obedience to fate, that's all.

The harem.

For all women, it is the most gorgeous place in the world. They enjoy in front of a man, show their charm and tenderness, conquer him, and immerse him in the world they weave.

She has seen how an emperor dotes on his concubine and how he ignores it.

The fate of women is mostly in the hands of a man.

Gong Yue could not help but clench his fist gently.

"What's the matter?" Ah Chen's voice awakened her from her memory.

"Nothing." She quickly calmed herself down and picked up the Phoenix crown on the table.

"Do you like it?"

Gong Yueyue didn't answer, but the figures of those women in the harem flashed in her mind. They were in great youth and accompanied the emperor. She expected to rely on the emperor's love and enjoy the honor of her life, but what did she get in the end?

"What's the matter with you?" Ah Chen was surprised: "I prepared these hard, but I don't want to make you sad."

"No." Gong Yueyue shook his head: "I'm not sad."

"Then why don't you like it?"

"I don't know." Gong Yueyue sighed softly and turned to look at him - "maybe it's you. It's too late."

"What?" Ah Chen was slightly stunned and immediately stared with big eyes: "what do you mean?"

"No."

At such a beautiful time, she really didn't want to destroy his confidence, but another voice in her heart guided her forward.

"Joan." Ah Chen stretched out his hand and took her arm.

But she chose to gently draw out her palm and walked out of the room.

"Gong Yueyue!" Ah Chen chased out: "what do you want?"

Gong Yueyue looked back and looked at him in a trance - maybe she didn't even understand what she wanted.

"Gong Yueyue." Ah Chen caught up with her and grabbed her: "don't test my patience!"

"Ah Chen." Gong Yueyue turned to look at him: "I don't want to deceive you, and I don't want to deceive you. I really have something in my heart, but I can't say it."

"Can't tell?" Ah Chen looked at Gong Yueyue strangely. He really didn't understand what was thinking in her mind.

If she hadn't experienced so many things, maybe she would choose to trust him wholeheartedly and hand over her destiny to him.

But she has experienced too many things, so now, even if she is with him, from time to time, there is a trace of doubt in her heart, growing out like thorns.

She questioned his feelings and her choice.

"Don't look at me like that!" Ah Chen suddenly roared.

"I see." Gong Yueyue lowered her head and looked at the ground - even if that day came, she still didn't regret falling in love with him.

"I like it very much." Gong Yueyue held his neck tightly and looked into his eyes: "I like everything you prepared for me, ah Chen."

"You're lying." His sharp eyes shot into her heart like arrows: "you have something to hide from me."

"Shizi."

Just as some swords were drawn between them, the voice of the waiter suddenly came.

"What's up?" Ah Chen's tone seemed particularly impatient: "don't you see that Ben Shizi is busy?"

"It's Hedu. Hedu had an accident."

"What accident?"

"According to the news from Hedu yesterday, the monarch has made an order to move the capital."

"What?" Ah Chen's voice suddenly increased eight degrees, released Gong Yueyue, turned and looked at the waiter: "what are you talking about? Repeat what you just said! "

"Monarch, make an order to move the capital."

"Move the capital?" Ah Chen roared angrily, "moving the capital at this time is tantamount to subjugating the country. What does he think?"

The waiter shuddered and suddenly fell silent.

Ah Chen's face was as white as paper.

For the first time since she met him, she saw him really angry, like a cold shining sword.

The scene was a moment of silence.

After a long time, he calmed down and said, "prepare a horse, and I will enter the palace immediately!"

Ah Chen brushed his sleeves and left Gong Yue, standing where he was.

When the cold wind blew, Gong Yueyue was cold all over. He felt that the blood all over his body seemed to condense.

"Madam." I don't know when Xiaojin came and wrapped a cloak around her: "it's windy outside. Go back to your room first."

Gong Yueyue didn't speak, but stood there firmly, suddenly stretched out his hand and held Xiaojin's fingertips: "come on, go and find Zhang Yong. I have something to explain."
