Jiang Heng quickly recovered his expressionless face, walked to Shen Zhi's side, and stretched out his hand to him.

It's really faster to turn faces than to turn books.

Shen Zhi murmured in his heart, handed over his hand with a natural attitude, and said with a smile: "Why are you here? You won't be waiting all the time, right?"

Jiang Heng let out a "hmm".

Shen Zhi couldn't help scratching his palm, his gentle eyes crookedly smiled: "My Highness, why do I feel like you are..."

a puppy?

Shen Zhi thought about it for a while, and felt that his courage was enough, and he didn't need to be bolder, so he didn't dare to continue.

Jiang Heng looked at him suspiciously. Seeing that he was silent, according to his usual temperament, he guessed that there must be nothing good to say, so he didn't ask: "Are you sleepy?"

Having only slept in Shen's residence all afternoon, Shen Zhi was naturally not sleepy.

Jiang Heng was in a good mood, and even his voice softened a lot: "Did you see your younger siblings?"

"En." Shen Zhi made a comparison, and said seriously, "Jiang Heng, I found that you are more clingy to me than the two of them."

Jiang Heng said lightly: "I only have you after all."

Shen Zhi's footsteps paused, as if something had crashed into his heart, disturbing his senses, his lips opened and closed a few times, and he couldn't speak.

He looked sideways at Jiang Heng, and the moonlight sneaked in from outside the corridor, covering his profile, making him look cold and lonely.

Shen Zhi's heart was heavy, and he was a little more inexplicably sad, silently holding Jiang Heng's hand tightly.

Jiang Heng didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said, Shen Zhi was willing to get close to him, he was so happy, his eyes gradually softened: "I'm also very happy that you can come back."

Why is it so uncomfortable?

Why is this man so sad.

Shen Zhi took a deep breath, smiled and nodded.

Jiang Heng saw that his mood was wrong, so he changed the subject and said, "In two days, it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it will also be His Majesty's birthday."

Shen Zhi paused, recalling what he had heard in that mansion a few days ago, pondered for a while, and said: "The two highnesses who were sealed are coming back soon."

Jiang Heng slightly raised his eyebrows, without replying, he led Shen Zhi into the study.Liu Yu, who had been absent for a few days, was waiting quietly. When he saw them coming, he bent down and handed a secret letter, and then withdrew.

Ever since Shen Zhi entered the study, there was an extra chair beside the desk, next to Jiang Heng's.

Ah Jiu graciously brought this chair over, Shen Zhi didn't know what to say, but Jiang Heng admired Ah Jiu very much, and happily doubled his salary.

Shen Zhi suddenly realized that Ah Jiu was not as honest as he seemed, and was very clever.

The two sat in front of the desk, and Shen Zhi lay down on the desk as if he had no bones, squinting his eyes lazily. After a while, he turned his head to look at Jiang Heng, only to realize that Jiang Heng had been staring at him, and the letter hadn't even appeared yet. open.

A sentence popped up in my mind for no reason, "From now on, the king will not go to court early".

Shen Zhi was made goosebumps by his own thoughts, he raised his eyebrows and teased: "His Highness has been staring at the officials like this, if they get tired of watching, the officials will not cry."

Jiang Heng still stared straight at him, and said in a flat tone, "Well, I can't get tired of watching it."

"..." Unexpectedly, a "love talk" was said, Shen Zhi felt numb all over his back, he quickly grew bones and straightened his waist, seeing that Jiang Heng still had a cold face, he couldn't help but think to himself: Jiang Heng's face is so thick?

Saying something like this...you don't even blush.

Because Jiang Heng's face was too upright and cold, Shen Zhi slandered for a while, and Qi Si, who was still a little restless just now, disappeared.

But sitting like this was not very comfortable. He dawdled on the chair, leaned his elbows on the back of the chair to support his head, tilted his head and looked at Jiang Heng: "Why don't you open the letter?"

Jiang Heng glanced at the letter, opened it while lowering his head, and said, "My grandfather is an imperial merchant, and the Du family is as rich as an enemy. When my mother was named queen, the treasury was empty, and Beidi invaded. Many people said that this queen was bought. here."

This was the first time Jiang Heng took the initiative to talk about his mother's affairs, Shen Zhi's face became serious, and he was about to adjust his unruly sitting posture when Jiang Heng pushed him back.

Jiang Heng continued to use that unwavering tone: "Shen Zhi, my mother is not a dick."

Shen Zhi had already guessed a bit, hesitated, and reached out to pat Jiang Heng's back.

Jiang Heng said: "She does have a violent temper, but she loves beauty. After the fire in the cold palace was extinguished, there was only a charred bone left in the palace. Even if she wanted to kill herself, she would not use this method .”

His tone was very calm, but Shen Zhi couldn't stop worrying. After thinking for a while, he asked softly, "Jiang Heng, why did you come back?"

If he had continued to go to Qiongzhou as King Zhao back then, the sky was high and the emperor was far away, and no one would hinder him.On the contrary, after returning to Beijing, one has to take every step of the way. If one wrong step is taken to expose one's identity, it is a crime of deceiving the emperor.

He can hide his strength and bide his time in Qiongzhou.

Jiang Heng stared at Shen Zhi quietly, and said in a deep voice: "I can't let go."

The continuous fire in the cold palace and the raging fire in the inn seemed to be burning in his heart every day, with burning pain.

Besides, he couldn't let go of Shen Zhi either.

For a moment, Shen Zhi couldn't figure out why Jiang Heng talked about these painful past events, he had almost no impression of them, he could only comfort him silently, his eyes were clear and gentle.

Jiang Heng leaned his head on his shoulder, and said in a muffled voice, "So I have to do something."

Shen Zhi stroked his back gently, "I know."

Jiang Heng usually armed himself tightly, like a hedgehog, guarding against other people at any time, but today he suddenly showed this weak side, which really made Shen Zhi feel complicated.

After a while, Jiang Heng returned to his icy look, stepped back a little, opened the half-opened letter, opened it, took a look, sneered, and said, "King Jin will be in the capital tonight."

"So fast?" Shen Zhi was a little surprised.

Two days ago, His Majesty ordered the two kings to return to the capital, and they arrived tonight. What kind of horse did King Jin ride?

Knowing that Shen Zhi couldn't remember these clearly, Jiang Heng reminded: "Prince Jin's concubine mother is Concubine Chang Gui."

The holy heart of the Holy Majesty has always been unpredictable. There are many beautiful families in the harem, and only Concubine Chang Gui is constantly favored.It's just that the Holy Majesty dotes on Concubine Chang Gui and the King Jin under her knees, but has never given the Phoenix Seal to Concubine Chang Gui, and then abolished the cowardly and mediocre prince and made King Jin the prince.

It has been widely rumored in the outside world that because King Jin is still young, when he takes the crown, the crown prince who has been insignificant in the East Palace should give way.

Shen Zhi was at a loss for a moment, and said: "Concubine Chang Gui...why do you want His Royal Highness King Jin to come to Beijing early?"

Jiang Heng twitched the corners of his lips, looking like he was going to smile or not: "It shouldn't be Concubine Chang who asked King Jin to go to Beijing early. King Jin is still young, simple-minded, and very close to the Holy One, so he came here in such a hurry. What news did Concubine Chang Gui send to him?"

Apart from the fact that His Majesty's health was not good, Shen Zhi really couldn't think of why King Jin came here in a hurry after hearing something.

Thinking about this kind of thing makes people a little creepy, and Jiang Heng's expression is not good every time he mentions Concubine Chang Gui, Shen Zhi paused, and asked with a frown: "...Is it Concubine Chang Gui?"

Concubine Chang Gui and Empress Du entered the harem almost at the same time. The Chang family had a distinguished family, and Concubine Chang's elder brother is the current commander of the five armies.

Even towards Jiang Heng...maybe there is some hatred.

Shen Zhi gently fiddled with Jiang Heng's drooping black hair one after another, and some vague memories gradually became clear in deep thought, but there was always a layer of something that could not be pierced or penetrated.

Jiang Heng nodded, put down the letter and pulled Shen Zhi into his arms, closed his eyes, as if a little tired.Shen Zhi obediently let him hold him, stretched out his hand to rub his temples, thought for a while, and said with a smile: "You can do whatever you want, I'm not afraid of being dragged into the water by you."

Jiang Heng paused with his fingers caressing his waist, but didn't say anything.

The next day, the news of King Jin's entry into the capital did not come out, this was expected, Shen Zhi and Jiang Heng were not surprised, they played chess and continued to wait for the news.After all, as a "princess", it's not good for a "daughter's family" to go out and show their faces casually.

Besides, Jiang Heng really couldn't show up at will. All kinds of banquets in the past few years have been excused by illness. This year's Mid-Autumn Festival banquet also fell ill early, so he told the emperor in advance.

The Holy Majesty was surprisingly easy to fool in this regard, probably because he felt that his daughter was afraid of crowded places, so he generously rewarded a batch of valuable things to the Princess Mansion.

After being ruthlessly rubbed and abused by Jiang Heng on the chessboard for two days, the news of King An and King Jin coming to Beijing came.

The two nodded in unison, not paying much attention.Ah Jiu stepped back knowingly after passing the news, and looked at Shen Zhi before leaving, which was quite meaningful.

This time the two played chess, and Shen Zhi, who was also killed in chess, felt a little depressed. Knowing that he would lose this game, he threw away the pawns in his hand and sighed: "No I've seen you be so ruthless and uninteresting."

Jiang Heng remained calm: "Oh?"

Shen Zhi clicked on the chessboard, with a lazy smile on his face, but his tone was drawn deliberately, with some resentment: "I've been eaten up, and you still say you miss me."

"..." Jiang Heng stared at Shen Zhi expressionlessly, and after a long while, he lowered his eyes and said inexplicably, "I haven't finished eating yet."

Shen Zhi, who had no idea that Jiang Heng had misunderstood the word "eat", pondered for a while, and said with a shy face: "Playing chess with you is too boring, you lose every time, let me beat you once?"

Jiang Heng looked at him without words.

Shen Zhi thought that his words were so shameless that Jiang Heng couldn't speak, touched his chin, and felt that he was indeed suspected of being "shameless". Just as he was about to take back his words, Jiang Heng suddenly took the chessboard away, stood up and moved Shen Zhi pressed down on the chair, lowered his head and kissed the corner of his lips, and said word by word: "No."

"..."

Shen Zhi narrowed his eyes.

No way, no way, what are you talking about?

The author has something to say:

Shen Zhi: They ate me up completely...

Jiang Heng: ...you wait.

:) Invisible teasing is the deadliest.
