Hibiscus Tent: The Prime Minister’s palm is reborn

Wang Tingyue looked anxious and hesitated to speak.

General Pei bowed to Liang Huan and said: "My queen is a righteous lady, please rest assured. I will do our best to save you from danger."

"Thank you, General Pei."

Liang Huan smiled calmly. They had always called her a witch who seduced the king's heart. It was hard to say how sincere her promise to rescue her was. If she could not save her, she would really die, so they could still breathe a sigh of relief.

Besides, she never placed her hopes on anyone.

Everyone present quietly waited for the emperor to make a decision.

After she finished speaking, Gao Qian stared at her with deep eyes. The undercurrent surging in his eyes contained a thousand words, but his thin lips were pressed tightly and he remained silent without saying a word.

Seeing this, Liang Huan did not look at Gao Qian, but raised his eyebrows and looked at Wang Tingyue: "I also ask General Wang to prepare a horse for me -"

"Where is the queen left alone?" Gao Qian interrupted coldly with a squinted smile.

Gao Qian was stunned and didn't answer with a calm expression.

Liang Huan said: "Your Majesty, take your medicine on time."

After a brief pause, he asked again: "Why do you think the assassin brought my concubine to the border?"

Gao Qian smiled: "Pei Yao, she is not only the queen of Daqi, but also Gu's wife. If Gu lets the assassin take her away today, where is Daqi's national prestige, and where is Gu's face..."

Gao Qingyi ignored him, walked around him, took two steps forward and said to Wei Yue: "Let go of the queen, I will be your hostage."

Gao Qian turned his face slightly and smiled: "The foolish king who misled the country with his beauty? But if he can't protect even one person, what's the taste of what the emperor did?"

Gao Qian didn't give her a chance to speak at all: "Don't the queen know? If you die, how can I live?"

The dim eyes suddenly lit up with a strange light, and Gao Qian stared at her in disbelief.

Liang Huan's heart skipped a beat. This lunatic said this in front of everyone. Others didn't know the truth about how they were bewitched and would only misinterpret the meaning. He was definitely going to label her as someone who misled the master and the country.

Wei Yue looked at the people with different expressions and felt amused. She chuckled in her ear: "Witch, I underestimated you."

General Pei clasped his fists and knelt down, heartbroken: "Your Majesty, how could you be so careless for one person? This has chilled the hearts of all the soldiers. If the world knew about it, wouldn't you have done it, done it..."

If you don't explore the tiger's den, you will catch the tiger's cubs. Instead of being passively vigilant, it's better to take the wrong approach and meet the mastermind behind the scenes. Anyway, they now know her whereabouts, so it's best to cooperate inside and outside.

Liang Huan lowered his eyes and sighed, then looked at Gao Qian: "Your Majesty, have Jiang Hujun and others returned their orders to you?"

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, there was a gasp.

Gao Qian frowned, his face gloomy and ugly, and he remained silent.

Liang Huan glanced behind him a few times, but did not see Qian Ming's shadow, so she had to ask him: "Has your Majesty taken your medicine on time?"

General Pei's expression changed greatly: "Your Majesty!"

Liang Huan frowned: "Your Majesty, concubine..."

General Pei sighed and touched his forehead to the ground: "I kindly ask your Majesty to return to Tu Yang's army as soon as possible. I will leave this place to you and General Wang."

Their eyes met for a moment, and although they didn't express it clearly, they understood something in their hearts.

Liang Huan's heart ached, and he nodded slightly: "They are all dead indeed."

"Why...why?"

"This is the grudge between you and me, so why hurt innocent people?"

If Gao Qian dies now, all forces in the court will definitely take the opportunity to fight for the throne, and the chaos within the Qi Dynasty will only become more chaotic. Who cares about the war on the front line? Once Tu Yang falls, the soldiers and civilians in the city will be massacred by Yu Wenke's army.

"Has Your Majesty forgotten what I said to Your Majesty that day in Hanguang Palace?"

Gao Qian was silent for a while, why didn't he understand what she meant?

Liang Huan said no more and said firmly, "Your Majesty."

Their eyes met, and there was silence again.

Gao Qian looked at her and smiled sadly, feeling both happy and sad.

There is always nothing he can do.

He had learned a long time ago that there really was nothing he could do.

Between them, she would never be the one to bow her head and give in.

He also did it knowingly that he couldn't do anything, and put his life in her hands with his own hands...

Gao Qian shook his head: "Forget it, prepare the horse and let us go."

After saying that, the surrounding soldiers consciously moved out of the way, and Wang Tingyue personally led the horse over and stopped not far away.

Wei Yue held Liang Huan hostage and stepped back closer to the horse. His muscles were tense, his eyes were sharp, and he jumped onto the horse's back with a tap of his toes.

Horse hooves flew up, bringing up dust and forming mist.

"Your Majesty, please order me to pursue you." Wang Tingyue hurriedly approached, anxious.

Pei Yao said: "Your Majesty, please rest assured that I will rescue the Queen."

Gao Qian stared at the galloping horses without looking at them: "No need, just send someone to follow them secretly."

At most, if she dies, he will die with her.

What's more, he couldn't live for more than a few days, so why bother letting her go?

After all, she promised on the day she became the queen that as long as she accepted the gift, she would be left to her own devices from now on.

Gao Qian looked away, took out a weird-colored embroidery bag from his arms, turned around silently, and walked back.

At this moment, he suddenly understood why he was so obsessed with making her surrender from the beginning.

Wang Tingyue glanced at Juechen's disappearing shadow, then looked at the man who pursed his lips in silence, and took a few steps to catch up: "Your Majesty——"

Gao Qian turned to look at him and smiled inexplicably: "Wang Tingyue, this time, I am you."

Wang Tingyue didn't know why and stood in a daze.

*

The horse ran very fast.

Liang Huan was beaten so badly that the wound on his back was about to burst.

She gasped and yelled, "Can you take a break?"

Wei Yue looked back and saw that there were indeed no pursuers. She couldn't help but be a little surprised. Then she saw that the person in front of her was restless and jumped off the horse with her in hand.

He raised his eyebrows and said, "Witch, your emperor really obeys your words."

The wound on Liang Huan's back hurt and itched. She wanted to scratch it but didn't dare to scratch it. She was not in the mood to pay attention to his sarcasm, so she sucked in air and gritted her teeth.

"What? You regretted not taking the opportunity to ask for some gold and silver treasures or an official position just now? That's easy, just send me back."

Wei Yue snorted coldly and looked at her wildly: "Tell me, what are you capable of?"

Liang Huan endured the unbearable pain and squatted on the ground, saying in a sullen voice: "Maybe you have some ability, but I just don't know if it will work for you?"

Wei Yue was stunned for a moment, her ears and neck suddenly felt hot. What she wanted to say was inexplicably blocked, and she cursed bitterly: "Witch!"

Looking over again, she lowered her head and was taking off her shoes. Her face burned even more, and she said angrily: "What are you doing?! I've never seen you so, so shameless!"

Weiyue stood with her back turned, her heart pounding, and the palm of her hand holding the sword was sweaty.

Liang Huan gasped and glared at him. The blisters on his feet were all broken and he had to buy a pair of shoes to replace them.

"My life is about to be gone, why do I care about shame?"

She put on her shoes and socks, stood up, climbed onto the horse, and looked down at him from atop the horse: "Let's go."

Wei Yue looked back at her: "It was clear just now that they could save you, why did you insist on coming with me?"

Liang Huan was a little surprised, then fell silent and said calmly: "Because I want to kill your master."
