Hibiscus Tent: The Prime Minister’s palm is reborn

Liang Qian opened her mouth, and what surprised her was not that the person who spoke was Xiao Qianyi, but the little old man standing next to Xiao Qianyi, stroking his white beard.

It was Chen Dechun who was supposed to be trapped in the rebel camp.

"……teacher?"

Liang Qian lowered her eyes, feeling indescribable emotions in her heart.

No matter how slow she was, she finally realized what was going on.

It was obvious that they had teamed up to deceive her.

When she looked up again, she clearly saw that the pair of eyes that had been staring at her without blinking had become dim.

Obviously, Yuwen Jue also understood that she was deceived.

There were many people present, and they all held their breath and stared at her curiously.

Feng Ting knelt straight, his eyes firm, "It was this subordinate who deceived Madam without permission. Madam, please do not blame the Lord. This subordinate is willing to die to apologize for his sin!"

Seeing this, Qingzhu and Yuchiyuan, who were following behind Yuwen Jue, hurried forward and knelt down.

"I am equally guilty and am willing to die!"

Chen Dechun sighed and leaned forward: "To be honest, Madam, if you really want to investigate, it should be me."

Liang Qian sighed inwardly and was about to reach out her hand when Xiao Qianyi unexpectedly rushed towards her.

"If you want to get mad, just vent it on me! But before you get mad, I have something to say!"

"Xiao Qianyi!" someone scolded in a deep voice.

Although it was a very low sound, even Chen Dechun, who was originally standing, knelt down.

Liang Qian looked past Xiao Qianyi and towards Yu Wenjue's face.

His face looked terribly gloomy.

Xiao Qianyi was completely unaware and just looked at herself, fearless and ready to give it her all.

"That day in Lincheng Villa, you were so logical in trying to comfort me. Why are you so timid now that it's your turn? Or do you really want to torture him to death before you're satisfied?"

"Xiao Qianyi."

The calm voice chilled me to the bone.

Yuwen Jue's eyes were deep and reserved: "Someone come."

"and many more."

Seeing someone coming forward to take orders, Liang Qian hurriedly stopped him.

She didn't look at Yuwen Jue, but looked at Xiao Qianyi helplessly. "You should give me a chance to speak. Is this how you, General Xiao, treat guests?"

Xiao Qianyi was slightly surprised: "You——"

Liang Qian stopped looking at her and took the lead in helping up Feng Ting, Yuchi Yuan, Qing Zhu who were kneeling in front of her, and then Chen Dechun.

"On the way here, I was worried about how to rescue the teacher. Now that I see you are safe, I am so happy that I can't blame anyone. Besides, the teacher must have had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure. I understand."

Chen Dechun said nothing, just bowed.

Liang Qian walked around a few people and finally walked towards the person who was looking at her intently.

Eye contact.

Liang Qian's eyes felt sore and bitter. She lowered her head and swallowed her tears. Thousands of words came to her mind, but she couldn't say a single word. In the end, all she could do was sigh.

"You...just be fine."

Yuwen Jue narrowed his eyes, his voice hoarse, and after a long time he managed to utter a few words with difficulty: "You don't have to... force yourself for them... If you want to leave..."

Liang Qian held back her tears and forced an ugly smile: "Who said I did it for them? I did it for myself."

Whether it was what Wang Tingyue said before leaving, or Feng Ting's abnormal hesitation on the way, she could vaguely feel that something was wrong. It's not that she hadn't thought about it, but she didn't dare to bet on the one in ten thousand possibility.

Besides, she had thought a lot in the past year.

Liang Qian sighed: "No compulsion, I volunteered."

Yuwen Jue was startled, and the extinguished fire was rekindled. There was unconcealable joy in his eyes, but he was afraid that there might be a misunderstanding in his words.

That day, she clearly said that she didn't want to see him again...

Yuwen Jue's throat was hoarse, and he moved his lips uncertainly: "You——"

Liang Qian sighed: "You don't believe it?"

"No."

Hearing this, Yuwen Jue suddenly felt a little sad.

Liang Qian's heart was sore and soft. She blinked her tearful eyes and looked at him tenderly: "Well... considering that I have come thousands of miles to find you and have not slept well or washed for several days and nights, can you let me wash up first, and then we can--"

She lowered her head and wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes, but out of the corner of her eye she saw a group of people looking at them eagerly.

Liang Qian sighed secretly. She herself didn't care what others thought of her, but Yuwen Jue was now the Lord of Zhou. It was really embarrassing for her to be so reckless in front of a person of unknown origin in public...

Liang Qian raised her eyes slightly: "I have something to tell you."

"Okay." Yuwen Jue tried his best to restrain himself, but his voice still trembled slightly, and it was unclear whether it was joy or sadness.

"You all should stand up."

After a faint sound, he led Liang Qian into the door without leaving another word.

Everyone stood there looking at each other.

Xiao Qianyi looked at the two people who left, her mouth open in confusion, not knowing whether she should go up and persuade them, or if they had reconciled? Also, do they still need to be punished?

She didn't understand.

While hesitating, he turned his head and looked at Chen Dechun.

"Old man, what are they doing——"

Chen Dechun stroked his mustache and sighed: "Heart disease needs heart medicine to cure it. I am just an ordinary doctor who prescribes the right medicine for the right disease."

Xiao Qianyi seemed to understand but not quite.

That day, she first saw Chen Dechun standing in front of the big tent holding an empty bowl and sighing, and then she saw him pulling Yuchi Yuan and talking about something. Later, after her coaxing and indirect questioning, Chen Dechun finally told the truth.

He recalled the familiar figure that appeared in the military camp. It was clearly the Qi general they had captured in Lianzhou before...

Xiao Qianyi shook her head: "Old man, I think we should all go and rest."

As he was speaking, Qingzhu stepped forward and bowed sincerely to Xiao Qianyi: "Thank you very much, General Xiao."

Xiao Qianyi was stunned for a moment, then waved her hands and snorted, "Why thank me? I just didn't take her medicine in vain."

*

By the time I finished washing up, it was already dark.

The flickering candlelight made the quiet room seem even quieter.

There was tea and cakes on the table, but she had no appetite.

After the maid brought her here, she left. She didn't see Yuwen Jue or anyone else.

For no reason, I recalled the night when I first arrived at the Grand Tutor's Mansion.

It's also like this, with mixed feelings.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems wrong.

Liang Qian stood up and walked towards the lattice door.

I didn't expect to be faced with someone as soon as I opened the door.

Surprise flashed across his eyes.

"Are you getting impatient waiting?"

Liang Qian shook her head: "No."

Yuwen Jue stared at her and explained, "I just had some things to deal with."

Liang Qian lowered her eyes and nodded: "I know, if you haven't finished your work--"

"Don't you have something to tell me?"

Yuwen Jue interrupted her and did not give her a chance to regret.

Liang Qian was damp from head to toe after taking a shower, but her anxious and nervous mood made her palms even damper.

It's been almost a year since they last saw each other.

She thought it through clearly, but what about him?

Liang Qian suddenly felt a little uncertain and did not notice a pair of eager eyes staring at her.

After a moment of silence, Liang Qian hesitated and said, "Are they...all okay?"

After waiting for such a long time, Yuwen Jue sighed heavily: "They are all fine."

He paused: "If you hadn't cared about their lives, would you have left without looking back? Is everyone... more important than me?"

Liang Qian raised her head and interrupted: "No."

Yuwen Jue stared at her intently: "What is that?"

Being stared at like this, Liang Qian's heart beat faster and faster, and the words came to her lips, but she couldn't say them.

He took a step forward and she took a step back.

"What is it?"

Liang Qian held him up with her hands, stopping him from going any further: "I——"

She turned her head slightly, not looking at him, and gritted her teeth: "I want to see you myself. I want to tell you that my desire for you to live well has never changed. Whether it was in the past, now, or in the future, I have never regretted it-"

Before she could finish her words, she was suddenly hugged and her arms were grasped with such great force that she was almost crushed.

After a long while, his throat became hoarse and he said with a thick nasal tone: "Why is it so difficult to get you to speak your mind?"
