The atmosphere was instantly silent and chilling, and a sudden and terrifying attack reminded Gu Sheng——

This person in front of him is also a bloody and aggressive prince who can speak with force, not a saint who can deal with any insulting words gently.

Therefore, Gu Sheng became timid and watched Jiang Han take a small step back.

The thought that flashed through his mind was to hide behind the little scumbag.

She subconsciously raised her hand and waved in the surrounding air, only to realize that she was alone at the moment.

Jiang Han, who was furious in front of him, suddenly smiled, not a wry smile, nor a sneer, that smile seemed to be a kind of self-deprecation that has gone through vicissitudes——

"Look down on me? Did Ah Jiu say something to you? Said that I was greedy for ink and took bribes?"

Gu Sheng replied in a low voice: "I know everything you have done, His Highness the Ninth Prince did not hide it from me, nor did he plan to expose you to the emperor, he was thinking of his sisterhood with you, but you can't make the same mistakes again and again. "

Jiang Han sneered, and looked down at her, "Do you think I need such 'kind' pity from you?"

Gu Sheng turned his head away, not wanting to see the vicissitudes of despair in those phoenix eyes.

Jiang Han swallowed, suppressed his emotions, and said softly with red eyes: "I understood all the truths you said when I was young.

But in fact?Those people who kept saying that I don't need me to fight for power and position, after all, sooner or later they abandoned me for power and position!

I am the prince who has maintained the top spot in the Imperial Academy for hundreds of years, but my father, because I am upright for the people and don't know how to adapt, has become more and more indifferent to me and abandoned me.

I also once firmly believed that as long as I keep myself clean and keep moving forward, even if I don't know how to adapt, there are people with the same high quality who are willing to join me.

But what shattered all my ideals and persistence were precisely these "friends in need" that I tried my best to keep.

Year after year, all the exploits and betrayals made me understand: I am not living in those loyal, filial and righteous Analects and poems, but actually living in this dirty struggle!

I have no power or influence. If I want to accomplish something and open up a network of contacts, I have to go through so many humiliation, cold words and violations. Do you understand?

All the rules in this world are set by those filthy smart people who have no power. Do you want me to use ridiculous integrity and self-discipline to influence those beasts! "

Gu Sheng frowned and looked up at her: "So you choose to go with them?"

Jiang Han slowly closed his eyes, frowned, and said, "Treat me with my own way, I must abide by their rules in order to obtain the supreme right, so as to finally defeat them and create my own new rules It's a pity that you don't want to wait for me."

Gu Sheng's eyes dimmed, and a strong sense of powerlessness filled his chest. The person in front of him couldn't be persuaded to turn back.

Jiang Han is not a child, it’s not that he is ignorant, or it’s because he gradually understands too many things and wants to do something so much that he chooses to use self-destructive methods to fight his way out in a difficult and stormy political situation. .

From the moment she decided to degenerate into a demon, she knew that she could not turn back, and only by breaking out of the darkness could she see the light again.

This mentality, in essence, is exactly the same as Gu Sheng's hysterical desire to wake her up.

If you pierce this layer of window paper and wake people up in one go, then everyone will be happy.The friendship has been preserved, but the scars have to be left forever, like a strong medicine that kills one thousand enemies and injures eight hundred.

If it's unlucky and the hurtful words are all finished, but people can't persuade them to turn around, then it's over.

Gu Sheng could see from those stubborn and desperate phoenix eyes that it was a pity that most likely this time he would tear his face and get the second result.

Neither of them could convince the other.

One thing about Jiang Han is good—even if things don't work out, his demeanor is still there, and he doesn't show his emotions or anger.

Even though she was scolded bloody by Gu Sheng, she still told her to "don't take it to heart" before leaving.

If it was placed on Jiang Chenyue, it is estimated that all the flowers, plants and trees in this forest could be uprooted, and then he said "I don't want to see you again!", before leaving, I had to pinch the wheels of Gu Sheng's carriage Chengfang, even if this matter is exposed.

But Jiang Han is different, she hides whatever thoughts she has in her heart.

Gu Sheng didn't know what the consequences would be if he opened up and talked about the matter this time. Anyway, he couldn't tell by looking at his face, and he didn't know whether Jiang Han would hold her grudges, so he could only take one step at a time.

In the evening, Gu Sheng returned to the mansion anxiously, not even in the mood to invite the eighth princess to play with the birds.

Back in the small courtyard, seeing the little scumbag and Xiao Hua waiting for her to go home in the gazebo, she felt a little more at ease.

Gu Sheng went out for a day, the little scum definitely didn't feed the parrot.

While waiting hungry and hungry, Xiaohua realized the goodness of the Ninth Princess, and when she saw Gu Sheng came back, she shouted at the top of her voice, "Mother! Mother! Mother!"

"Quxiang Xiangtiange!" The little scumbag happily continued.

Gu Sheng rolled his eyes, walked into the bedroom with "white hairs floating in green water", and took out a pack of sunflower seeds, and came back with "red palms and green waves" to teach His Highness Ninth Prince to feed his daughter Xiaohua.

At night, I dreamed of the scene of Jiang Han's confrontation with His Highness the Ninth Highness. Ruxue's sleeves were gradually blurred by the rain of blood, that warm smile turned pale and green, and Yin Hong's blood tears flowed from his eyes.

Gu Sheng sat up abruptly, panting heavily in the darkness.

His Highness Ninth Prince who was awakened dazedly followed her up, and asked her blankly, "A Sheng?"

Gu Sheng's hands and feet were cold, he clasped his hands together in front of his chest, and prayed silently in his heart: Buddha blesses him, I only hope that Jiang Han's life will be safe.

Looking back, Gu Sheng gradually got used to the light and darkness of the sky, Jiang Chenyue at the side was watching her, the skin on her face seemed to be shrouded in a faint brilliance, still eye-catching in the dark, just a pair of pale golden eyes Abnormally sluggish, apparently still awake.

"Your Highness." Gu Sheng held His Highness Ninth Prince's hand, and said with a sad face, "I'm having a nightmare and want to go to the small Buddhist hall to burn incense sticks. Can you accompany me?"

Jiang Chenyue nodded dully, saying yes.

Gu Sheng immediately reached out to reach for the clothes, Jiang Chenyue woke up suddenly, stopped her hand, and said in surprise: "You mean now?"

Gu Sheng said impatiently: "Yes!"

His Highness the Ninth Prince was shocked by Aifei's temper when she said that the wind was the rain, and she couldn't go back on what she said. She rubbed her eye sockets in pain, and persuaded in a low voice, "Burning incense at this time? Maybe the Buddha hasn't woken up yet."

Gu Sheng didn't believe it, he tidied up as if he was playing chicken blood, and dragged the little scum in a semi-conscious state to the small courtyard of the Buddhist hall in the West Garden.

Kneeling on the futon in front of the Buddhist altar, Gu Sheng closed his eyes and expressed his wishes piously, such as "I hope the country will live in peace and the people will be safe and prosperous", and then carefully added: "I hope that the brothers and brothers of the princes of Daxia will respect you." , sisters are of the same mind."

She just wanted to signal His Highness the Ninth Highness to "speak well" with the second sister in front of the Buddha, and don't do anything.

After finishing speaking, he used his peripheral vision to look at the people beside him——

The little scum was almost so sleepy that he could stand up and take a nap, waiting for her to make a wish with a paralyzed face, not sure if he could hear her intentions.

Gu Sheng was worried, so he had to repeat those few wishes one after another. Seeing that His Highness Jiu still looked dull, he turned his head and asked with a smile on his face: "Your Highness, do you think the Buddha will manifest?"

His Highness Ninth Prince was full of grief. If the Buddha could appear, he would definitely pick up the candlestick and point at the stupid companion and shout: "Are you finished? It's midnight, and we haven't opened yet!"

But the stupid companion's almond eyes were full of anticipation, and she couldn't say the words that poured cold water on her. Jiang Chenyue bowed her head in compromise, and nodded: "Yes."

Gu Sheng went back to the house and slept soundly.

The next day, she didn't get up until the sun was high, and when she was eating, she found that Jiang Chenyue was looking at her sideways, with an unclear expression.

Gu Sheng felt a little guilty after being stared at, and immediately apologized for his nonsense last night, but heard His Highness Jiu seriously say: "What are you worried about?"

Gu Sheng's heart skipped a beat. If she said that she was worried about Jiang Han's future, why would Jiang Chenyue drink a pot of vinegar on the spot?

So she didn't dare to speak out the words she was full of, like a dull gourd.

Seeing this, Jiang Chenyue didn't ask any more questions, she lowered her long eyelashes, "Eat, I will take you to meet an acquaintance later."

Gu Sheng opened his eyes wide and asked anxiously, "Who?"

That pair of shallow pupils slanted over, and a smirk floated on the corner of his mouth, "You'll know it when you see it."

Gu Sheng became even more disturbed, finished his meal hastily, changed into regular clothes, and left the mansion with His Highness Ninth Prince.

The carriage left the west city gate all the way, bypassed the mountain road, and came to a desolate canyon.

After getting out of the car, he followed a plainclothes bodyguard to an iron cage.

That is the entrance leading to the underground. When the iron cage is lifted, the inside is deep and cramped, and it is impossible to see to the bottom.

The personal guard carried the lantern and went down first, and greeted inside, and the distant echo suddenly echoed from the entrance, and came out faintly.

scary...

Gu Sheng looked up at Jiang Chenyue, and asked timidly: "Where is this place? I dare not go down."

Jiang Chenyue still smiled mysteriously, went into the entrance first, then turned around and handed Gu Sheng her hand: "Come on, Gu will be with you, seeing her, you won't have nightmares anymore."

The sunlight from the east slanted into the entrance, and the shallow pupils were shrouded in shadow, deep and charming, but the outstretched thin palm seemed to gather all the warm light, with slender knuckles.

Gu Sheng seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, and put himself completely into the hands of that person, feeling extremely at ease.

Walking through the endless dark tunnel, Gu Sheng saw that on both sides illuminated by lanterns, there were damp and dark prisons, but they were all empty.

All the way to a dimly lit cell door, the group stopped.

Probably because she was afraid that Gu Sheng would be shocked, Jiang Chenyue asked her to wait at the door for a while, and followed the guards to "pacify" the prisoner's emotions.

Sure enough, as soon as she saw the guards holding the lantern and pushing the door in, the woman in the prison who was heavily chained began to scream in horror!

Gu Sheng was startled by that voice for a moment, and took a few steps back in a panic.

Seeing the woman going crazy and trying to avoid the guard, Jiang Chenyue walked quickly to her side, raised her index finger to her lips, and coaxed: "Shh, you don't have to be afraid of him."

The woman turned her head in panic, and looked at the figure who quietly walked beside her——

A delicate face jumped into her eyes unexpectedly, and there was a charming smile in the pale golden eyes, which really made her think for a moment that she was safe.

"Long time no see, Second Miss of the Gu family, the person you should be afraid of is Gu."
