Heaven Scheme Palace

"Although I do not know your true identity, nor do I know why you want to investigate the case of the Yao Family, my goal is to deal with the Lu Family, to deal with my third brother's Prince Chu." Right now, Gu Qi's eyes were shining with a bright light, hiding a complex expression, but a lot of it was trust.

"You did it for the Crown Prince?"

"Yes, Crown Prince is currently sealed, and owes it all to Lu Family. In order to deal with the Prince Chu, the only way to do so is to start from the extermination of the Yao Family, and there is a high chance that this case is the Lu Family's conspiracy. "

"You want to use this case to thoroughly strike at Prince Chu and save him?"

"Right."

"You're not selfish at all?" She thought that the reason Gu Qi took such a big risk to investigate the case of the Yao Family was because he wanted to compete with his.

"Nope." His eyes were sparkling, and his expression was extremely serious.

"Why are you telling me this, are you not afraid that I will inform the Prince Chu?"

"You won't."

"Why?"

"Because we have a common goal."

"So?"

"Work with me." He paused for a moment, and then said after being silent for a while: "I promise you, in my capacity as Zen King, that if you succeed to the throne, I will ensure your glory for the rest of your life."

When Dan Qing Han heard this, she suddenly thought back to four years ago, when he said to her: Let your father support the Prince Chu, I will definitely ensure his prosperity.

"I don't want anything. I only want the real culprit of the Yao Family's annihilation." She squeezed her nails into her palms and let the pain spread throughout her body.

"What about your real identity?"

"I am Dan Qing Han, the daughter of the Assistant Minister of Revenue."

Upon hearing this, a sharp look appeared in his eyes, "Is that the Dan Qing Han who helped Prince Chu get past a calamity that day?"

She knew that after revealing her identity, he would definitely be suspicious. After all, she had indeed helped Prince Chu a lot that time, not to mention that the relationship between Tantai Clan and him was special.

"Do you believe me?" she asked.

Instead, he asked, "Can I trust you?"

"As you said, we are already friends in times of trouble, what else do you have to say that you don't believe me?"

Hearing this, he smiled, revealing half a row of clean teeth. She suddenly felt that this smile was very clear and clean. She had never seen such a pure and innocent smile on the noble and powerful face.

At that time, Dan Qing Han felt that he could be completely trusted.

"Can you walk? I'll carry you. " Dan Qing Han bent down, gesturing for him to lean on her back, "We need to find a way out quickly."

Gu Qi was startled, seeing that the weak body, was actually going to carry him?

Although he was suspicious in his heart, he didn't reject it at all.

"Is the man you like Ling Xuan Su?" Leaning his head on her shoulder, he felt her relatively steady steps carry him forward.

"Ling Xuan Su?" Dan Qing Han was a little doubtful when she suddenly heard this name.

"People in the capital said that he initially wanted to marry you to become the Crown Princess, but unfortunately, the King Yu interfered and made it impossible for you to be together."

"It's not him. We're just friends."

"Then I am relieved." He was suddenly relieved.

"What are you relieved about?" she wondered.

"Ling Xuan Su has obviously chosen to rely on the Prince Chu, so he is enemies with us. If the person you like is Ling Xuan Su, then how can you turn your heart around and deal with them in the future?"

Hearing that, she let out a laugh, thinking that if he knew that the person she liked was not Ling Xuan Su, but was actually Lv Wen Hao, would he vomit blood?

"What are you laughing at? Is there something wrong with what I said? " Seeing the peculiar smile on her face, Zhang Xuan felt that something was amiss.

"Nothing." She asked with a depressed tone: "Gu Qi, are we considered allies now?"

"Yes." He raised his sleeves and helped her wipe the sweat that was trickling down her forehead. Without even thinking, he said, "Qing Han, my name is Xuan Yuan Jing."

"I know."

"I'm afraid you don't know."

… ….

They walked downstream of the cold pond, and before the sky had even turned dark, the two of them used the sky as their hut and fell into a deep sleep.

Dan Qing Han had just started to recover from her serious illness, so she carried Xuan Yuan Jing on his back before falling into a deep sleep.

Xuan Yuan Jing, on the other hand, was brimming with energy and vitality. He sat beside her and looked at the valley that was filled with smoke and the sky filled with stars. He casually picked up a leaf and the corner of his lips.

The melody was like high mountains and flowing water, suddenly close to and then far away, gentle and intimate, as if playing the most touching movement.

Dan Qing Han slept soundly with the song.

After sleeping for an unknown period of time, she slowly woke up to see that Xuan Yuan Jing was playing a small tune.

"Why aren't you sleeping?" Dan Qing Han slowly crawled back up from her seat and looked at him in the dark. She felt that this was the first time he had seen him with such a sorrowful aura in the past few days.

"Remembering something, I can't sleep. Did I wake you up? " Xuan Yuan Jing played with the green leaf in his hand.

"What song is this? It's very nice to listen to."

"Tsashi."

"Fuxi?"

"Yes, a girl's name."

"The girl you like?"

Xuan Yuan Jing lowered his head, staring at the green leaves, he did not say anything. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly raised his head and stared at her: "The girl he once liked."

Dan Qing Han felt uncomfortable under his gaze, "You can't be liking me now, right?"

Xuan Yuan Jing laughed heartily at her words. "I've seen people who are straightforward, but I've never seen someone as straightforward as you."

Dan Qing Han laughed dryly: I understand.

Xuan Yuan Jing asked again, "What about you?"

Dan Qing Han understood his problem, and only smiled lightly: "Even now, I still like him."
