Hibiscus Tent: The Prime Minister’s palm is reborn

Zhao Ruxin raised her pointed white face, shook her head and explained: "I didn't do it on purpose, it was a mistake, yes, a mistake!"

Tearing eyelashes, red tip of nose, aggrieved expression...

Diving high to take a closer look at each place.

Actually, it's not similar, not at all.

Why did it feel like it before?

He pulled out his arm and his dark eyes darkened a little.

-

In the dormitory, Liang Huan held his chin and sat beside the desk, his fingers unconsciously playing with the white jade in the box.

Just now, I held the lamp and looked through the gifts sent by Northern Zhou, but I didn't see anything special.

Liang Huan simply picked up the white jade jue from the box. The texture was shiny and smooth to the touch.

After seeing the bundle of hair and the sachet in the imperial prison, doubts gradually arose in her mind. Was it the Northern Zhou people who forged the tombs and abandoned the bundle of hair for the sake of authenticity, or—

Something unexpected happened, and like everyone else, she thought it was the sword that killed him. In her grief, she only focused on treating the wound, but forgot many important details.

Taking the drug three times will put a person into a state of suspended animation. Apart from taking the antidote, all I can do is wait for the effects to wear off.

During this period, whether he was given medicine, bandages, or acupuncture treatment, his body would not react in any way.

It is expected that the effects of the drug will take at least three hours to wear off, so will he...

Liang Huan clenched the Bai Yujue in his hand.

I don't know if it's because I miss him too much, or I still don't want to accept the fact that he is dead. The longer time goes by, the stronger this idea becomes.

Liang Huan sighed softly, lowered his eyes slowly, and glanced at the empty box unintentionally.

She put down the jade jewel and picked up the box. It was exquisitely made, with patterns...

"Concubine Shu has not been placed yet?"

Just as he was about to take a closer look, a person suddenly walked in. Liang Huan's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly closed the box and pushed it aside.

There was no time to investigate why he came quietly every time.

"Your Majesty, isn't there something wrong? Why are you here again?"

As she spoke, she pulled off her clothes and looked for her shoes with her peripheral vision.

There was only a moment of surprise in his tone, and the rest was indifferent. If you listened carefully, there seemed to be a hint of resentment.

It was dissatisfaction with the unexpected visit.

Gao Qian glanced at her, then looked at the desk, "He acted like he was playing chess, but he was staring at Yu Jue in a daze."

Liang Huan put on wooden clogs at his feet and reluctantly saluted: "I'm just killing time before going to bed. I feel sleepy and ready to go to bed."

After speaking, he covered his mouth and yawned, which was perfunctory and also to drive people away.

Gao Qian picked up the white jade jue on the table and lowered his eyes to take a look.

Liang Huan stared at him, her heart raised, and she softened her tone, trying to divert his attention.

"Your Majesty, why are you here so late?"

She regretted it as soon as the words came out of her mouth.

If the emperor comes to the concubine's residence at night, what else can he do?

Sure enough, Gao Qian put down the jade in his hand, raised his eyes and looked over, staring at her silently, with deep eyes.

Liang Huan glanced at Yujue without missing a trace. As long as he didn't leave, her heart would still be hanging.

Just as he was hesitating whether to call Xianglan, Gao Qian sat down and his eyes fell on the chessboard: "Do you like to play chess before going to bed?"

Playing chess before bed seems to have been suggested by Lu Xiu, but she is the only one who actually practices it.

Either he had not finished his work, so she could only play a game by herself, thinking about everything while waiting for him; or he had finished handling the matters at hand, but he would not really play chess with her.

Now that I think about it, playing chess is not a hobby, it can only be said to be a habit.

But tonight, it's not a like or a habit, but a need.

Liang Huan lowered his eyes, packed up the cases and said calmly: "It's okay."

Gao Qian picked up a black stone, kept silent for a moment, and played chess, usually between two people.

So before going to bed, she likes to play chess. She must have developed it in the Taishi Mansion.

Gao Qian looked at the black chess piece that was mostly surrounded, with no expression on his face and a calm voice: "This black chess piece seems to be destined to fail."

Liang Huan stopped what he was doing, stared at the chessboard with his dark eyes, and frowned, hoping that he wouldn't see anything.

"I'm just amusing myself."

Gao Qian nodded slightly: "How about Concubine Shu accompany me to finish the game of chess and then sleep again?"

Liang Huan knew about Gao Qian, was good at music, and was good at calligraphy and painting, but he had never seen him play chess before.

Never played chess with him.

Privately, she refused.

Liang Huan nodded, took advantage of the opportunity to put Bai Yujue away, and gently pursed her lips: "Okay, I will allow you to clean up this place."

After that, he took the jade box and put the two books on the case into a small drawer that was easily accessible.

Then he ordered Xianglan to prepare longan lily tea.

Liang Huan sat down again, Gao Qian had already made a move, and his eyes were only looking at her, not knowing whether he was observing her or waiting for her to make a move.

Her eyebrows moved, and her hand that placed the chess piece paused slightly. Just from the situation on the chessboard, one might not be able to see her ingenuity, and deliberately pretending to be stupid and obedient would be too deliberate and arouse his suspicion.

Without knowing his true skills, it would be better to show off his edge in the next game and make it more believable.

Xianglan not only brought tea, but also prepared some cakes.

Gao Qian glanced casually and focused on the chessboard.

Liang Huan's mind wasn't on the cakes either. Instead of hiding his head and hiding his face, it would be better to have something refreshing and refreshing.

It turned out that she was overly worried.

High potentials are not good at this.

Of course, maybe he was just pretending.

After the game was over, Black was defeated.

Gao Qian smiled coldly and glanced at Liang Huan: "I don't know that Concubine Shu is so good at chess."

Liang Huan lowered his head to pick up the chess pieces. Even though he had won, he didn't show any joy at all and looked cold and indifferent.

After all, they were old acquaintances, and they knew what each other was good at. He might not be able to guess how she improved, not to mention, who knew whether he asked that on purpose...

Just as he was about to confess that it was Lu Xiu who taught him, Gao Qian didn't dwell too much on the issue, as if he just asked casually.

He picked up the tea cup and looked at her: "Concubine Shu likes to play chess, but playing alone will inevitably lose the fun. How about in the future, whenever you have some free time, come to Hanguang Hall and play a few games with Concubine Shu?"

Even though Liang Huan was mentally prepared, she didn't expect him to say this.

When Gao Qian is not crazy, he is actually not easy to deal with.

After thinking about it, she was glad that he was restricted in many ways, otherwise she might not have a chance to win against him.

"it is good."

Liang Huan's mind was spinning again and again, he kept picking up the chess pieces in his hands, and he answered casually, very casually.

All the chess pieces were taken back, and Gao Qian was still sitting calmly, with no intention of moving.

You can't really stay here, can you?

Liang Huan gritted his teeth and raised his eyebrows to look at him: "Your Majesty, do you want to do it again? If not -"

Gao Qian put down the cup in his hand and turned to look at the bed with interest.

"Oh, remember, Concubine Shu just said she was sleepy, do you want to be resettled now?"

As he spoke, a cool smile appeared in his eyes.

Liang Huan shook his head and said against his will: "No, what I mean is that if Your Majesty is not sleepy, we can continue. I am not sleepy anymore."

Gao Qian frowned, a little worried: "I wanted to tell Concubine Shu to rest early. In this case, I will stay with Concubine Shu for a while..."
