Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 619 The Truth
The room was so quiet that even breathing could be clearly heard.

Zhao Xiwei was stunned for a moment.

Since when did Miss Gu become so affectionate?

If things continue like this, once she leaves the East Palace, maybe Miss Gu will be able to become the Crown Princess naturally?
"Yeah, I'm not as deep-rooted as Ah Ci!" She smiled slightly, her tone indifferent: "Since Ah Ci has so much affection for His Highness, then stay in the East Palace!"

She tilted her head halfway, her smiling eyes were bent, and there was a bit of teasing: "Maybe this bowl of cherry cheese is hit on the wrong side, which has promoted the relationship between you and His Highness the Crown Prince!"

To be ridiculed by her love rival like this, for the proud Gu Yuci, it hurt her more than killing her.

"You, you..." Gu Yuci was so angry that he finally couldn't help vomiting out a mouthful of sour water. Fortunately, the palace lady caught it in time with her sharp eyes and quick hands.

It was the first time she knew that vomiting could be so uncomfortable, her internal organs seemed to be tightly grasped together, as if being grabbed by a powerful claw, shaken away, grasped again, shaken away fiercely, every time It made her eyes stare, and even the tears flowed out uncontrollably.

Cold sweat broke out one after another, making strands of hair on her forehead stick together.

But even in such a state of embarrassment, she did not forget to question Zhao Xiwei: "So, your vomiting and nausea are all intentional? Are you taking medicinal herbs privately and pretending to be a fake pregnancy in order to deceive His Royal Highness?"

Her eyes lit up suddenly, and her voice raised, "I know! You deliberately played such a trick in order to keep the position of the princess! So the two great doctors jointly couldn't diagnose your disease. illness!"

Zhao Xi frowned slightly.

She tricked him with a fake pregnancy?Just to stay in the East Palace?

She subconsciously wanted to refute this kind of questioning like splashing dirty water.

She wished Li Xuanye would let her go...

But as soon as she thought about it, she felt that there was nothing wrong with just continuing to misunderstand like this.

If Gu Yuci let him know that the fact that she was "pregnant" was completely false, maybe, just maybe, he would let go of his surveillance on her...

The corner of her lips curled up, and her smile grew stronger: "Congratulations, you guessed right."

Gu Yuci was lying on the side throwing up, when she heard this, she suddenly raised her head: "What did you say?" She stared at Zhao Xiwei, her eyes seemed to be dancing with flames, and asked again and again, "Are you sure?" Is it a fake pregnancy?"

"Yes!"

After the two words fell, a light flashed in Gu Yuci's eyes.

Of course, Zhao Xiwei did not ignore this subtle change.

She just felt pitiful and pathetic.

Even a proud and conceited woman like Gu Yuci will become so blind and frantic once she falls into the trap of love.

She propped up her elbows, resting her cheeks on her palms, and looked at Gu Yuci, who was dying of vomiting, very seriously, and smiled: "Miss Gu is very good at predicting things, but she only guessed half of them right. And the rest The other half, might as well tell you too..."

Gu Yuci stared at her blankly, lost for a moment.

Her smiling eyebrows, raised mouth corners, everything is so mysterious and cold.

But there is a deadly allure, luring all the prey, approaching and chasing uncontrollably.

Gu Yuci forgot the discomfort in his stomach for a moment, and subconsciously leaned over halfway, and subconsciously asked: "The other half...what is it?"

The way she stared with her chin in her hands, there was an inexplicable innocence of ignorance of the world, and the words she said were so beautiful——

"I have no interest in staying in the Eastern Palace!"

"What?" As if she was too shocked, Gu Yuci's body trembled suddenly, she fell to the ground, her voice was a little hoarse, "You, what are you talking about?"

Zhao Xi looked at Gu Yuci slightly, silent for a moment.

If there hadn't been the imperial decree to accept the side concubine, and the decree to abolish the crown princess, she might still have the possibility to stay.

Even in the end, if he patiently explained to her and told her all the reasons and difficulties, she might still have a reason to struggle.

But unfortunately, he accepted the former without saying a word, and he rejected the latter without saying a word.

This is tantamount to blocking all her paths.

Nothing more...

Husband and wife, let's get together and break up!
She also didn't want to become a paranoid and willful resentful woman for the sake of a man...

She breathed a sigh of relief silently, her eyes were as soft as water, and said frankly: "Actually, the vomiting is to deceive him and make him let go of his guard against me—you know, he keeps a close eye on me and sends two guards day and night It makes me feel very uncomfortable to keep taking turns guarding my small courtyard."

"He took everything from me and left me in this limbo, but I can only live according to his wishes. My words, deeds, and actions are all under his control. This is not what I want I don’t want to spend the rest of my life like a trapped animal, waking up every day in a cage waiting for the owner to feed me food..."

"Zhao Xiwei." Gu Yuci suddenly called out, frowning tightly, as if trying to stop her from continuing, "You—"

But Zhao Xiwei just shook his head.

She doesn't trust Gu Yuci too much...

I just feel that since she is leaving, being able to make a couple is also doing good deeds?
At least Gu Yong is the Prince's uncle, whether it is out of interest or affection, it is most appropriate for Gu Yuci to be by his side...

She thought of all the things she had with him. When they first met, he flew out of the forest with an arrow and shot down the knife that Wang Fan had put on her neck.

When they met again, he took her to Hucao to read the information and helped her solve the crisis in the Zhao residence.

Later, he gave her a shop in the name of borrowing food.

Later, he braved the heavy rain to bring her back to the East Palace who had fainted on the street.

In all the things between them, he has always been helping her and taking care of her. Even if he can't give her forever, she has nothing to complain about...

She smiled lightly, with a relaxed but firm tone, and continued: "I pretended to vomit, making it look like I was pregnant and not pregnant, so that he had to withdraw the guards, and I would be free for a moment before I could leave -"

Her eyes fell on Gu Yuci's face again, and she no longer had the slightest hostility, and even said calmly: "When I leave the East Palace, he will accept you as his side concubine, and maybe in the near future, you will be his concubine." The Crown Princess. And I..."

Her tone suddenly paused, and the wind around her also stopped.

Gu Yuci was inexplicably confused, and there was a hint of urgency in his eyes, and he suddenly whispered: "Zhao Xiwei!"

Zhao Xiwei half-closed his eyes, and spoke in a deep and clear voice: "And I don't want to stay in the East Palace anymore, and I don't want to have any more entanglements with him..."

The gentlest tone, the coldest decision.

Gu Yuci quickly pushed away the maids on the left and right, and hurriedly stood up: "No!"

Zhao Xiwei heard the abnormality in her tone, opened his eyes in surprise, touched her expression, and froze for a moment.

Fear, resentment, worry, and even... a bit of fear?
The first few are easy to understand, but what is the fear?
