Spring Forest Evening

Shen Fu didn't expect her to say such a sentence, and thought that Zhou Heng was speaking out of anger, so he quickly took her hand and walked up to the room, while apologizing to her in a low voice:

"It's my clumsiness, and I couldn't hold on to it. It's really impossible. On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, I said I was sick and couldn't enter the palace. If I want to come to the emperor, I can't blame it. What's more, even if I did go, what will happen that night? Maybe, it’s just that I can’t watch the moon with you—”

Speaking of this, I somewhat regret the excuse of going to the imperial study in the morning. In fact, it's better not to say it, and I can just call sick again on the fifteenth day, and then I can accompany her to enjoy the moon and celebrate the festival by the Xiayun Pool.

But Zhou Heng interrupted him at this moment: "You don't have to regret it, Ah Fu, this matter is probably out of your hands, and no matter what excuses you make, you won't be able to hide from it."

Shen Fu was stunned for a moment, one foot just took the first step up the steps in front of the door, he couldn't help but stop when he heard her words, and turned his head to ask her with some doubts:

"what do you mean?"

"What I mean is," Zhou Heng said calmly because he had thought about the ins and outs in the morning, his thoughts were very clear at the moment:

"Since the empress dowager, mother and daughter and the second prince have such ambitions, they must have made all-out preparations. Why did the third princess attack me in the first place? Didn't we discuss it a long time ago? Not only is Prince Jing's mansion behind you, but also people from the northwest side. What about the Yasukuni Army, and you are also serving in the Ministry of War, so you think, how can you rest assured to keep you outside the palace at a time like this?"

Shen Fu was stunned for a moment, but he immediately came to his senses, shook his head and smiled wryly:

"That's right, I thought it was too simple!"

Pulling Zhou Heng to continue up the steps, he said:

"Since that's the case, Mid-autumn night can only cause you to live alone in the mansion."

After finishing speaking, he found that Zhou Heng did not follow him up, and turned to look at her in surprise.

"Ah Fu, didn't I just say that?" Zhou Heng stood there and looked up at him, expressing firmly:

"At that time, I will enter the palace with you!"

"What are you doing in the palace?" Shen Fu frowned upon hearing this: "I don't know what will happen in the palace at that time, and even the elder sister will barely avoid it, Ah Heng, I know you are worried about me, don't worry, I Will definitely pay attention to—"

"Ah Fu, listen to me," Zhou Heng interrupted him for the third time:

"What is the situation of the palace change, I have already understood it in my place. I can't say that the blood will flow like a river, and it will definitely be quite tragic. I am not that naive."

"However, according to the current situation, those people must not take the usual path and start their actions in the Taiye Pond. Ah Fu, can you guarantee that you will not board the boat then? Even if you are on the shore, can you guarantee that you will not be harmed? ?”

"Although I heard from you that there is only one painting boat in the Taiye Pond, and in previous years only the emperor took the queen mother and three princesses to board the boat to enjoy the moon, but what if the format is changed this year to have fun with the monarch and his ministers? Didn't you Are you saying that the purpose of the palace is to invite all officials, civil and military, to drink and have fun by the Taiye Pool and celebrate the festive season together?"

"Of course there are military generals among those officials, right? And there are many guards with high martial arts skills in the palace. Don't they think of these people, the second prince? Including you, you are a prince, and the emperor seems to treat you well on weekdays. , the queen mother and daughter don't want to let you go, do they?"

"Aheng!" Shen Fu sweated instantly while holding Zhou Heng's hand, and his tone became serious: "I know you are worried about me, don't worry, I am naturally prepared for these things, and the palace is heavily guarded, except for the imperial guards, The emperor also has the Dragon Fat Guard and the close-knit Tiger Ben Guard. Even if the Second Prince and the others are fully prepared, they will not win easily, so it will definitely be a fierce battle. All I can do is to let myself, my uncle and the others Get out of your body, because of this, Ah Heng, I can't let you put yourself in danger!"

It seems that he knows what he is thinking, not bad. Seeing his serious expression, Zhou Heng couldn't help smiling and leaning towards him, and said softly:

"But I can't let you put yourself in danger!"

"You come into the room with me first!" Shen Fu didn't answer directly, and after pulling her into the room and sitting down, he said with a serious expression:

"Aheng, you also said that since they dared to take such a risk, there might be ambushes in other places besides the Taiye Pond. At that time, swords and guns will have no eyes. Even if I can let you follow me all the time, in case one accidentally protects you Hold you, how do you let me-"

Before finishing speaking, Zhou Heng covered his mouth with his hands: "Don't worry, just listen to me and tell me what I think, okay?"

Shen Fu ignored it, held that hand, with a sincere expression on his face:

"Aheng, this matter is no small matter, it is not a trifling matter, but don't worry, I will come back safely, and one day, I will take you to the high clouds in the northwest. Besides, even... without me, the Zhou family will always be yours Mother's house, let alone... I will make arrangements for you at that time, even if you can't go back to see your grandmother, you still have to work hard to live here, Ah Heng, you are only [-] years old now..."

After talking about it, I couldn't go on anymore, and my face was full of pain.

Zhou Heng was a little dumbfounded when he heard it, there was no way, people in the two worlds would always have some differences in understanding, but fortunately, both of them were thinking about each other, so he quickly pulled out his hand again and covered Shen Fu's mouth, softly and quickly I've told you my thoughts, but if I go on like this, I can't explain clearly:

"Ah Fu, you misunderstood. I don't want to let myself live alone, nor do I want to follow you into the palace and die in vain. I want to live a good life with you."

"But on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, although the second prince, the queen, and maybe even the emperor have made preparations, those preparations have nothing to do with me. I am only worried about your safety. You said that I will be alone at that time. Watching the moon in the house, do you think I can watch the moon with peace of mind? Besides, what's the point of watching the moon alone?"

"As for following you into the palace, I'm not talking casually, and I don't want to be a drag on you. Listen to me, I think so: the small actions of those people in Taiye Pond, so far, not many people I know, and the queen probably doesn't intend to let people know, she just wants to do it in one pot, so when the painting boat is hacked and something happens, even if there are people in the palace who can go to rescue in time, there probably won't be many people , and most of them are going to the emperor and queen mother, don’t you think so?”

As soon as he said this, Shen Fu nodded hesitantly, and while taking her hand off, he didn't interrupt again.

Seeing that he had listened, Zhou Heng smiled and continued to talk about his thoughts:

"I know, to put it bluntly, we just want to watch the fire from the other side, but since the Taiye Pond will become the main battlefield at that time, many things will go in ways that we can't predict in advance, and we can't even control them. Once you are invited to board the boat, the boat should be pretty big, right? The palace must be full of ostentation, and the boat is big and stable."

"So I thought, let's think about it in the next two days, and you also recall the terrain by the Taiye pool. If possible, I will follow you into the palace, just in case."

This time Zhou Heng didn't say anything to death, for fear of driving Shen Fu into a hurry, but this time Shen Fu just asked after listening to it:

"You mean, if I get on the boat, you want to follow me on the boat?"
