Hibiscus Tent: The Prime Minister’s palm is reborn

Gao Qian looked at her quietly with his eyes drooping, his hands gripping her tightly, squeezing her so hard that it hurt.

Liang Qian moved but was unable to withdraw her hand, so she continued, "At that time, I would rather die than obey, so I suffered a lot. Then, maybe Xue Xiaowan thought I was too stubborn, so when she came again, she brought Tian He with her, hoping that someone of the same age could persuade me.

The first time I met Tian He, she was wearing a bracelet with red beans on her wrist. Many of the things she told me were not made up by me. As for Tian Miao——"

After a pause, he continued, "Do you still remember the dozen women I took to Lianzhou?"

Gao Qian frowned: "One of them is Tian Miao?"

Liang Qian shook her head: "No, she didn't go with us, but insisted on staying in the village."

"Why?"

"Why?" Liang Qian sighed softly: "She was afraid that her husband wouldn't be able to find her when he came back. She said that was their home. If she left again, their home would really be gone..."

Gao Qian narrowed his eyes and looked at her.

Liang Qian pulled her hand back and explained, "The man was born rich, but in order to be with her, he disobeyed his parents and severed ties with his family. But the good times didn't last long, and he encountered natural disasters and man-made disasters. Fortunately, he survived, but this time, he went to the battlefield and there was no news. Now, Lianzhou has been captured by Zhou's army, and that village must have been... If not for this, I would not dare to come to their house rashly."

Gao Qian: "Why are you looking for that Qi? She doesn't believe us."

"Li Yizhu?"

"Ah."

Liang Qian smiled and did not refute: "If she doesn't believe us, we may not believe her either."

Gao Qian raised his eyebrows: "What do you mean?"

Liang Qian glanced at him and said, "Li Yizhu and Tian He are the same age, and they entered Tongleguan at about the same time. Xue Xiaowan chose Tian He instead of Li Yizhu. Do you think they are really friends?"

Gao Qian looked at her silently.

Liang Qian said: "If it was in the past, I would definitely think they were, but now... maybe Tian He would regard Li Yizhu as a sister or a friend, but Li Yizhu might not."

She shook her head and said no more.

"Sang Chan is quite famous in Jinye, and should be able to attract many people. Gao Yi is your brother from the same mother. You should know more about him than I do."

Gao Qian was stunned for a moment, then he lowered his head and laughed.

Liang Qian looked at him and said, "How could a man who wanted to be an emperor be obsessed with a prostitute? If not, why did he always look for her?"

Gao Qian slowly raised his eyes, and there was no trace of smile on his face anymore.

Liang Qian added: "Tongle Pavilion is the favorite place for dignitaries and dignitaries. Let alone deliberately forming cliques for personal gain, even if it's unintentional, they can get a lot of information, right?"

Liang Qian met his gaze and said, "Now that I think about it, you two are indeed quite similar. You are both very good at disguising yourself. Don't forget that you used to -"

Seeing Gao Qian staring at her intently, Liang Qian changed her tone and said, "In short, it is impossible that Sang Chan could have stayed with Gao Yi for so long just by her beauty."

He paused for a moment and said, "Why don't you use the same trick again this time? Hold a banquet, trick Gao Yi into the palace, and then take him away while he's drunk—"

Liang Qian said this while making a gesture of wiping her neck.

Gao Qian laughed softly.

Liang Qian also knew that it was impossible.

Looking back, even if he killed someone under the influence of alcohol, he couldn't really kill anyone he wanted.

The relationships in the court are so complicated that one small move can affect the entire body. Those who can be killed are all insignificant.

If he could really kill court officials at will, why would he be controlled by others everywhere and his power be divided?

Regardless of whether it was in the previous life or the Qianqiu Festival that year, the reason why he killed people so ruthlessly, in addition to fear, venting, and self-protection, it must have been to create momentum and shock people.

tyrant……

"Hey, how much is this hairpin?"

Suddenly, a sharp voice pulled her thoughts back from their wandering state.

She was a middle-aged woman with slanted eyes and high cheekbones.

Just as Liang Qian raised her eyes to look over, she heard a cold and decisive voice from the side.

"Not for sale."

Liang Qian tilted her head to glance at Gao Qian. This man really changes his attitude faster than turning the pages of a book.

Gao Qian didn't even raise his head or even look at the woman.

Whose business does this?

Liang Qian quietly pushed Gao Qian. They couldn't attract attention.

The woman gasped: "Not selling?"

Without waiting for Liang Qian to say anything to comfort her.

The woman's expression changed instantly, and she started to yell at the top of her voice: "You don't want to sell? If you don't want to sell, why are you setting up a stall here? Are you sick?"

Liang Qian just stood up and was about to apologize when Gao Qian pulled her back.

"Why are you wasting your time talking to her?"

As he spoke, he raised his eyelashes slightly, glanced at the person who came, and uttered a word from between his teeth: "Get lost."

The woman was about to curse, but when she suddenly met those gloomy and cold eyes, she shuddered and took two steps back. She was shocked, frightened, ashamed and annoyed. She opened her mouth, turned around and ran away.

Liang Qian turned around and faced Gao Qian with anger.

"you--"

Gao Qian raised his eyebrows slightly: "She can't afford it at all. It's useless to ask. Why waste her time and our time?"

Liang Qian rubbed his temples and sighed helplessly: "When someone comes later, you are not allowed to speak."

Gao Qian seemed to think about it seriously: "Okay."

Liang Qian glanced at him. What were they talking about just now?

Then he shook his head and said, "Well, let's take a day off today. Anyway, we have found a way to deal with Gao Yi."

Liang Qian's eyes inadvertently swept across the stall, and suddenly stopped on a silver hairpin inlaid with a white jade butterfly.

It is the one the woman asked about the price of just now.

Liang Qian picked it up carefully and traced it with her fingers: "This hairpin was made by Yuanzhi. At that time, I always asked her to embroider a butterfly on the corner of my skirt... When she made this hairpin, she said that if the broken jade was trimmed, it would look like a butterfly."

She squinted her eyes, then looked down at every item on the stall, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

These were what they had done together in Hanguang Palace.

Gao Qian sat there in silence, looking at Liang Qian, his eyes tender and affectionate.

Liang Qian suddenly turned her head away. His heart skipped a beat and he quickly looked away. But when he looked again, everything was back to normal.

"what happened?"

Liang Qian's mind was focused on the jewelry and she didn't notice anything unusual about him.

"How come these things..."

This bag of jewelry was what was left over from the sale on New Year's Eve. She had deceived Gao Qian and left him in a restaurant. She thought she was going to see Feng Ting, but ended up meeting Lu Xiu...

Logically speaking, the jewelry should have been lost in the tavern.

In fact, she had long forgotten about this bag of jewelry.

As a result, unexpectedly, he took it away.

Liang Qian lowered her eyes and looked quietly at the small pile of jewelry.

Gao Qian already understood what was going on. He sighed silently, took the butterfly hairpin from her hand, and inserted it into her hair.

Liang Qian was stunned.

Gao Qian raised his lips and smiled indifferently, as if he was just saying, "You look better with the butterfly on."

After saying that, he no longer looked at her, but only looked at the street scene in the distance.

The surroundings are noisy, but this place is silent for a moment.

"How do you sell this jewelry?"

Liang Qian came to her senses and saw a few more pairs of feet in front of the stall.

"Not for sale."

She raised her head and was about to explain a few more words, but she saw that the person standing in the middle was the middle-aged woman from before, with a few soldiers standing beside her.

The woman put her hands on her hips and said proudly: "See, I was right, these two people are suspicious! Hurry up and arrest them!"

Several people came up and wanted to take the person away.

Gao Qian kicked one of them down.

Liang Qian quickly put away her bag and ran back with Gao Qian.
