Hibiscus Tent: The Prime Minister’s palm is reborn

In the cellar where ice cubes are piled up, the cool air is filled with refreshing fragrance.

Liang Qian knew that it was the smell of the fragrant soup made from tulip grass and the white wine brewed from black millet.

After not seeing Gao Qian for half a month, he looked the same except that he was paler than when he was alive.

After soaking and wiping, the corpse coated with white wine was spotless and almost transparent.

When an emperor passed away, his coffin would usually be kept for three months.

Liang Qian stopped the naked man and the depressed man who wanted to perform the ceremony.

"Just mind your own business, I'm just here to take a look."

After hearing her say this, the busy people continued to be busy.

They are very busy during the days of the funeral. Just the detailed preparations for the funeral will take almost a month.

All the clothes and accessories worn during the burial were presented to her for inspection.

Perhaps it was because it was cold in the cellar, her troubled heart gradually calmed down.

Liang Qian was a little dazed as she stared at the person lying there motionless.

He changed their plans, brought his death forward, and ended many lives prematurely, but some problems that should have been dealt with when he was alive were left to her.

Is it because you guessed that the road ahead would be difficult, so you gave her a chance to regret?

Liang Qian sighed silently.

It would be nice if she could also kill those who deserved to be killed while drunk.

Thinking of this, he shook his head again.

Why would she need alcohol to kill someone now?

In the past half month since she returned to the palace, she has killed so many people at the command of one person.

In the eyes of the civil and military officials, she is small and weak, vulnerable to bullying; in the hearts of the three palaces and six courtyards, she is a hypocrite with a dagger hidden in her sleeve.

Before he died, he told her that if she did what she wanted, there would never be a separation between Qian Lang and A Miao again...

But it has only been a dozen days, and she has doubted more than once in her heart whether what she is doing is really worthwhile and meaningful?

Can her joining really stabilize the situation and prevent innocent people from being harmed?

Or will it only muddy the waters and lead to more intense struggles?

There were open and covert struggles in the court, and no one was willing to give in. The only thing she could hold tightly in her hands now was the harem.

But this harem is not indestructible——

As long as Gao Yang sits on the throne, she will be on high alert.

She stared blankly at the man who was as white as snow. If this continued, she would become him.

Or, she has become him.

Then she sighed again. What kind of agreement did they reach in Lianzhou City without her knowing?

High potential...

Liang Qian lowered her head. She had never thought that in this huge palace, the only person to whom she could reveal her true feelings without any scruples was this corpse.

Perhaps, it's not just this palace.

Liang Qian closed her eyes and could only sigh.

Is this the Gu Han from the top of the clouds?

Even the heavy banner on his body could not bring the slightest warmth.

……

Knowing that the Queen Mother was coming suddenly, some responsible persons came here in a hurry, fearing that she had some instructions or was checking to see if they were slacking off. But they saw her standing aside, watching silently, fiddling with a few herbs in her hands unconsciously.

Suddenly he remembered something and whispered a few words to the person next to him.

After the man came back, he took the things, walked forward and bowed respectfully.

"See the Queen Mother."

Liang Qian came back to her senses, put away her complicated thoughts, and restored her usual expression: "No need to be polite, you have done a good job these days, after the national mourning, everyone will be rewarded."

The visitor bowed his head to express his gratitude and respectfully presented something.

"I found something on the late emperor a few days ago and I wrote to you to report it, but it has not been reported to you... Maybe the empress dowager is busy with government affairs and has not had time to approve it. Now that you are here, I dare to present it to you."

Liang Qian was slightly stunned, and suddenly remembered that there was such a thing. Unfortunately, there were so many things to deal with during this period that she forgot about it.

Besides, she didn't take Gao Qian's personal belongings seriously.

Liang Qian looked at the embroidered bag in the jade plate that had changed color due to the blood stains and frowned.

Just by looking at the workmanship and stitching, you can tell it was made by her, not to mention there is a butterfly pattern embroidered on it.

Liang Qian picked it up and looked at it carefully. In addition to the blood stains, the edges and corners of the embroidered bag were also a little worn, which must have been caused by being rubbed and fiddled with in her hands often.

If I remember correctly, this embroidered bag was originally used by her to store antidote pills.

It is not uncommon for Gao Qian to carry it with him.

Just this amount...

Why is it not only heavy, but also bulging?

Liang Qian was suspicious, but she didn't raise her eyelashes, and asked casually, "What's in it?"

Upon hearing this, the visitor knelt down in shock and replied tremblingly, "These are the personal belongings of the late emperor. I dare not open them without permission. If I find them, I will immediately order someone to carefully put them away and report to the empress dowager."

Liang Qian then raised her eyes and nodded gently: "You guys can leave first."

After everyone had left, she first glanced at the cold people before carefully opening the embroidery bag.

In addition to a piece of hair, there is also a jade belt hook with a dragon head and chi pattern.

With hook?

Liang Qian lowered her eyes; the belt hook reminded her of something.

In Hanguang Palace, she taught Song Mian how to write, and then mentioned Han Jiangdu King Liu Fei and his concubine Chunyu Yingying...

Liang Qian couldn't help but look up at the lifeless Gao Qian.

In doubt, she tried to split the belt hook in the middle, and with a little force, the belt hook broke into two.

The moment the hook opened, Liang Qian's heart skipped a beat.

She lowered her head and took a closer look. On the inside of the two halves of the fan, there were inscriptions in small seal script engraved in Yin-Yang script. There were only four words: Never forget each other.

Liang Qian held the object in her hand and slowly sat down.

Suddenly, a scene flashed through her mind. That day, they were chased to a dead end. In desperation, they hid behind a pile of debris, and then sat with their backs against the wall and talked.

At this moment, he was lying and she was sitting, and there was only silence.

For a long time.

When she stood up again, she just glanced at him, turned around and walked out.

As no one came out for a long time, Jinlan waited anxiously at the door, feeling worried.

Seeing someone coming out, she let out a long breath and hurried to meet him, not forgetting to observe his expression. Seeing that there was nothing different, she slowly spoke.

"Queen Mother, a palace maid came to report that the master has woken up."

Liang Qian raised her eyebrows slightly and said in a light tone: "Go to my private store tomorrow to pick out a few presentable gifts for -"

Her dark eyes moved and she said, "Give them to the Princess of Yong'an and the Princess of Pingyang."

Jinlan nodded gently: "Yes."

After Liang Qian finished speaking, she walked away in silence.

Jinlan fell behind half a step and couldn't help looking at Liang Qian's face. After hesitating for a moment, she finally spoke: "Queen Mother, have you forgotten that there is another person?"

She frowned slightly and asked bluntly, "Will the Princess of Changguang not see you off?"

Liang Qian turned her head and said simply, "No thanks."

Jinlan was puzzled.

The Queen Mother met all three of them, and among them, Prince Changguang was the most attentive.

The most important thing is that the Queen Mother talked to him the longest.

Liang Qian frowned and said in a cold voice: "If Prince Changguang sends you something again in the future, just accept it. But if he asks for an audience, you will help me to turn him away."

"This..." Jinlan was surprised.

Liang Qian looked at her and smiled without explaining.
