On the way back to the palace, Gu Jingxu kept looking out of the carriage window without looking at Su Yanzhi. He was worried about Lin Junlan's condition, and even more worried that Fu Shiting would kill Su Yanzhi after finding him.

He now regrets dragging Lin Junlan into this fight because he should not underestimate the disputes in the Northern Kingdom's imperial court.

Su Yanzhi was sitting on the other side of the carriage. He stared sideways at Gu Jingxu, as if he couldn't understand him. After looking at him for a long time, he suddenly asked, "When did you know that person?"

Gu Jingxu frowned, turned back and looked at Su Yanzhi, his obviously probing tone made him a little disgusted.

He sat up straight, lowered his gaze, and replied coldly, "Whether you recognize him or not is none of your business."

He didn't want to mention Lin Junlan's past, nor did he want to mention it. But there was no need to cover up his acquaintance with Lin Junlan. Su Yanzhi would definitely be able to see through his obvious defense just now.

Su Yanzhi smiled, his bright eyes darkened, and he moved closer to Gu Jingxu, "Your Highness, we just spent the night together yesterday. Shouldn't we be more honest with each other?"

As soon as he raised his eyes, he found that Su Yanzhi was already in front of him. He frowned, his handsome eyes lowered, "That is my own business, Su Yanzhi, there is no need for us to be honest with each other."

"As for the lovemaking on the bed, it doesn't seem to be something you and I are willing to do. It's just a whim."

If he was conscious, he probably wouldn't have much emotion to linger with Su Yanzhi on the bed, and he had no intention of dedicating himself to Su Yanzhi in this northern country.

Fundamentally speaking, they are still different people. Even if they share a bed, they will not be as affectionate as an ordinary couple.

Su Yanzhi leaned back a little. Although he knew that Gu Jingxu had not opened up to him so quickly, he still felt a little depressed after being rejected like this. "That's right, but I'm not very happy right now."

The sunny smile that Su Yanzhi had always maintained gradually disappeared from his handsome face, and the eyes staring at Gu Jingxu gradually became darker, like a cheetah at night, the light in his eyes was gloomy.

This is completely different from Gu Jingxu's coldness. The aura of Su Yanzhi's body is gloomy.

Gu Jingxu knew that Su Yanzhi was not as sunny as he seemed on the surface, so when Su Yanzhi's eyes became sharp, he was not too surprised. His red lips moved slightly, but his eyes remained cold, "That has nothing to do with me.

.”

Originally, it had nothing to do with him.

"Your Highness, are you angry?"

Su Yanzhi raised his gaze, leaned against Gu Jingxu, and touched Gu Jingxu's chin with his hand, "Why do you have such a cold face and smile? It looks so good."

Gu Jingxu looked calmly and waved Su Yanzhi's hand away, "I don't want to laugh now."

The carriage stopped in the palace, and the two people sitting in the carriage did not get out of the car. Su Yanzhi's eyes were cold, and then he opened the curtain and said, "Get out of the car."

The voice of the order fell, and the people outside immediately left on their knees. The carriage stopped in front of the quiet palace gate. Su Yanzhi did not get out of the car. Gu Jingxu sat in the car, lowered his eyebrows to calm down, and then stood up to leave.

But as soon as he stood up, his wrist was pulled. Su Yanzhi lowered his gaze, took Gu Jingxu's wrist, flicked him hard, and threw him on the seat.

Then he leaned forward and grabbed Gu Jingxu's neck, "Your Highness, have I been too kind to you, making you forget that you are supposed to be a lowly slave?"

The sunlight in front of him was blocked, and his waist was already hurting. Such a fall hit his lower back. Gu Jingxu gasped in pain. He looked into Su Yanzhi's eyes and said coldly, "From now on."

I have not forgotten, Su Yanzhi, I don’t need you to remind me again and again about the current situation in the South."

The gloomy man stared at Gu Jingxu, as if he wanted to tear him apart in his arms. His grip on his hand did not let go, and even tended to tighten, "Gu Jingxu, why did you find such a person and come close to the Fu family?"

"

"Could it be that he wants to disturb the royal family of the Northern Kingdom?"

Su Yanzhi's voice was low, but his firm tone left no room for doubt, and he had obviously determined this fact.

Gu Jingxu smiled. Although he was being pinched by the neck, he was sure that Su Yanzhi would not kill him now.

He didn't think about Lin Junlan's matter. If he knew that Jun Lan looked like the regent's young master, he would definitely not let Jun Lan approach the northern royal family rashly.

He narrowed his eyes and stared at Su Yanzhi. It seemed that the person in front of him had shown such a terrifying expression for the first time. Perhaps, this was Su Yanzhi's original appearance, but he had always looked at her with a sunny smile before.

Cover this terrifying darkness.

Gu Jingxu leaned back a little more. He was too lazy to struggle. His face changed slightly due to the pinch, but he was still aloof and cold. "You already have the answer, so why bother asking me."

When Su Yanzhi asked this question, he had already determined the answer in his heart. From the beginning to the end, Su Yanzhi never trusted him, just like from the beginning, he did not believe that Su Yanzhi's heart was towards the sun.

They were all born in the imperial city. Within the imperial city, the darkness and human hearts under the bright light are the most terrifying. How could they climb to the throne without any means.

Even he has had his hands stained with blood, there have been people who wanted to save but did not dare to save them, and he has sacrificed others in exchange for his own status.

Gu Jingxu was pinched by the neck and looked at Su Yanzhi. His black hair fell in front of him, taking away his original aloofness. Despite his handsome face, he was not afraid at all, "Su Yanzhi, you were not born to face the sun."

Flowers, don’t even think about wearing a mask of sunshine and willfulness.”

The person holding Gu Jingxu was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled, but in that smile, there was no sunshine anymore, but a darkness and gloominess, as if the night was being torn apart, completely tearing away the sunlight of the day,

He couldn't sew it up anymore, "It turns out that you have also discovered that His Highness the Crown Prince is not that stupid after all."

"Thankfully, I practiced in front of the bronze mirror for a long time. I thought this smile could deceive you for a long time, but I didn't expect it to be discovered so soon. It's really boring."

After saying that, he let go of his hand and sat on the seat, but blocked the door to go out. The carriage was dark. Su Yanzhi stared at Gu Jingxu's neck. On that fair neck, there were very purple and red marks.

obvious.

Gu Jingxu raised his hand and touched his neck. He was having difficulty breathing, but he was not used to being let go suddenly. After taking a few breaths, he looked quietly and said, "Actually, there is nothing wrong with your smile.

"

The first time he saw Su Yanzhi smiling at him, he thought that the emperor was really a young man with a pure temperament, at least not that dark.

But many things happened later that made him have doubts.

It wasn't until Su Yanzhi told him about his mother that he was sure that Su Yanzhi was not as simple as it seemed, at least, not as sunny as it seemed.

"If a normal person sees his mother acting like this, he will definitely not give up and obey the words of those who insult his mother."

Su Yanzhi listened to Gu Jingxu's words, his eyes lowered, his eyebrows were frivolous, "Well, not bad, continue."
