Hibiscus Tent: The Prime Minister’s palm is reborn

"You two, stop!"

"Catch them quickly!"

The soldiers behind him were chasing closely, shouting loudly, causing passers-by to stop and look over here.

Liang Qian wailed in her heart, holding the bag in one hand and pulling Gao Qian in the other, she gritted her teeth and ran wildly without thinking or caring about the direction.

They must shake off their pursuers and must not be recognized!

However, with so many people coming and going on the busy streets, it is not an easy task to both shake off the people behind you and avoid the pedestrians coming towards you.

Pedestrians fell, stalls overturned, items scattered...

In the process of chasing and pursuing, the whole street was unknowingly disrupted.

Liang Qian looked back quickly and continued to run forward angrily: "Why are they still chasing us?"

Gao Qian turned his head, his eyes fell on the hand she was holding, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

Liang Qian stared ahead, panting heavily, gritting her teeth, "We agreed not to... attract attention... now it's gone!"

Gao Qian lowered his eyebrows and glanced at her flushed face. There was a smile in his eyes, but he complained: "That's all your fault. I didn't say anything this time!"

"Blame me?!"

As expected, Liang Qian turned around and glared at him angrily.

Gao Qian met her gaze, blinked and nodded innocently: "Yes, if you just casually mentioned a price, they would have no reason to arrest us."

A rake?

Liang Qian was furious and was about to retort when her body tilted and Gao Qian pulled her over.

She was about to scold him for being crazy, but she saw soldiers blocking their way not far ahead.

Attack from front and back?

Liang Qian bent down, breathing heavily, and looked left and right anxiously.

In a panic, they just tried to escape, turning around and around and finally turned into an unfamiliar alley. Now that they had no way to go, where should they escape to?

Moreover, she was running so hard that her calves were shaking and she could barely stand. She really couldn't run any more...

"Hurry, there they are!"

Liang Qian looked back and saw that the people behind her had caught up with her!

She raised her head and looked at Gao Qian: "How about... we explain it to them?"

"Is it too late?"

Gao Qian looked at the man who couldn't even straighten his back, coughing and holding back laughter, with an embarrassment on his face. He simply gritted his teeth and made up his mind: "Hold it tight."

"Ah?" Liang Qian frowned in confusion.

Before she could ask more questions, his body lightened and his feet left the ground.

Gao Qian picked her up by the waist.

Liang Qian let out a low cry, closed her eyes, and hugged his waist tightly.

Gao Qian took her over the wall.

As soon as Liang Qian's feet touched the ground, he quickly looked at the earth wall behind him, stroked his chest and laughed: "How could I forget that you practiced martial arts!"

Gao Qian looked at her curved eyebrows, pursed his lips, and said seriously: "Yes, she has learned martial arts."

The joy only lasted for a moment as soldiers climbed over the wall.

Liang Qian gritted her teeth and dragged Gao Qian to continue fleeing.

After a moment, they leaned against the wall, holding their breath and hiding behind a pile of debris.

Liang Qian was huddled in the innermost area, holding a torn straw mat.

Gao Qian had just squatted down when someone chased after him.

As the footsteps approached, Liang Qian's heart began to tighten. If she was really caught by the soldiers, could she just bribe them with money?

The man stopped chasing and stared at a pile of debris in the corner. He immediately became alert and was about to go forward to check when he saw half of a face showing behind the wooden board with extremely cold eyes.

He was startled and lowered his head to kneel down, but the man gave him a cold look.

The visitor understood the order and retreated quietly.

The soldiers outside were still looking for someone when they suddenly saw a man of ugly appearance approaching. They were about to shout him off, but they saw that he was holding a token. The leading officer was frightened when he saw it and was about to kneel down, but was stopped by the man.

Liang Qian lifted the straw mat and nudged the person next to her who had been silent with her elbow.

Gao Qian was stunned, turned around and looked over with confusion in his eyes.

Liang Qian peered through the gap for a while, but heard no movement nearby, so she whispered, "They should have left, right?"

Gao Qian looked at her bright eyes and said, "I don't know. How about waiting a little longer?"

Liang Qian thought about it, nodded, and sat down again by putting the mat under her body.

"It's a good time to take a break."

Gao Qian just felt amused, but said calmly: "I didn't expect you to run so fast."

Liang Qian rolled her eyes at him angrily: "Were you forced to do this?"

However, she lowered her head and wanted to laugh.

She ran so desperately just now that for a moment, she almost thought she was back in her childhood.

Gao Qian's gentle gaze fell on Liang Qian's head and he said lightly: "What are you thinking about?"

Liang Qian rested her chin on her knees and turned her head to look at him. "When I was a child, I often sneaked out of the mansion with Wang Tingyue and was chased like this. However, the ones chasing us at that time were not soldiers, but servants. Usually, they would find us and take us back soon."

Gao Qian smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't do that if you follow me. I'm the emperor, who dares to arrest you?"

Liang Qian sneered to show her disdain.

Gao Qian suppressed his smile, his eyes moved slightly, and his voice was soft and low: "...Do you remember everything from your childhood?"

Liang Qian frowned: "How can I remember everything? Now that I think about it, I can only remember some interesting and impressive ones--"

She paused and tilted her head to look at him: "You can't possibly remember every little thing, right?"

Gao Qian's face turned pale, and his eyes darkened: "... a small matter... then of course I can't remember it..."

He stopped talking, smiled, got up and went out.

Liang Qian wanted to call him, but she didn't know whether it was because she was uncomfortable staying here, or because she had run too much just now and felt a tightness in her chest. Now there was no sign of soldiers, so she thought he had already avoided them, so she simply got up and followed him.

Gao Qian was walking slowly in the alley alone. Suddenly, he bent down and started coughing violently.

Liang Qian picked up her small bag, chased him in a few steps, and patted his back gently. He must have run too fast just now.

Seeing the blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, she hurriedly took out a silk handkerchief and stuffed it into his hand.

"I think we should go back. You are..."

Even with the newly formulated medicine, his health is still deteriorating. How long can he last if it continues like this?

I'm afraid that before I get rid of Gao Yi, he will already -

Gao Qian seemed to have heard her thoughts, wiped the blood from his mouth, and slowly smiled: "Don't worry, I will insist on living until he dies. I know that you came back and treated me like this just to let Gao Yu repay Pei Yao and the blood debt of those soldiers.

By the way, you are also afraid that once I die and Gao Yi ascends the throne, Zhou, Wang Tingyue, Song Tan... they may not be able to survive. Don't worry, everything you want will come true..."

He smiled wildly, staring into her black eyes, which were brighter than ever before.

Liang Qian froze for a moment.

After spending so much time with him, she almost forgot what the tyrant who once frightened her looked like.

Life and death are uncertain.
