Chapter 18 I only want the throne, not favor (18)
[Depends on the situation, sometimes one, but no more than three]
888 gave Cheng Shuhan a thoughtful answer.
"Then...if I do one more task, will I be given one more spiritual energy?" Nothing is more important than spiritual energy.
【certainly】
888 answered in the affirmative.
"Okay, I agree then."
Doing one more task would also benefit her, so she reluctantly did it.
After Cheng Shuhan agreed, 888 breathed a sigh of relief and, as he had said, provided Cheng Shuhan with memory confusion pills for free.
That night, Cheng Shuhan entered Gao Yansheng's dream.
As soon as she entered Gao Yansheng's dream, she found herself in a foggy place, unable to see her hand in front of her face, and unable to see the surrounding scenery clearly.
Cheng Shuhan frowned. He was not dreaming.
Just as Cheng Shuhan was thinking about how to make Gao Yansheng dream, the sound of swords clashing came from not far away, as if a fight was going on.
Cheng Shuhan ran quickly towards the source of the sound, but she was too small and her legs were too short, so she couldn't run fast.
It took a long time to reach the destination.
"Gao Yansheng, today is the day you die!"
When he was less than five meters away from the fight, Cheng Shuhan saw two blurry figures in the fog. One of them was a black figure standing there, and judging by his attire, he looked like an assassin.
The person who fell to the ground had black hair and dark clothes, and looked like he was seriously injured.
Seeing that the assassin's sword was about to seal Gao Yansheng's throat, Cheng Shuhan hurriedly squatted down, picked up a stone and threw it at the opponent's sword.
The sword tip was deflected and the assassin looked at Cheng Shuhan.
She was small, and the other person took a quick glance before realizing her tiny figure: "Where did this child come from? Since you've already seen it, I can't let you stay today!"
Let him kill Gao Yansheng first, and then kill the child.
"Gao Yansheng!" When the assassin was about to attack again, a woman's voice came from not far away.
Hearing the call, Cheng Shuhan's face froze slightly. It was actually Chu Wanqing.
The assassin's concentration was interrupted again, giving Gao Yansheng an opportunity. He picked up the sword at his side, quickly deflected the sword from the assassin's hand, and struck the assassin in the throat with one sword.
"I'm here." As Gao Yansheng spoke, he coughed up blood from his throat again.
Cheng Shuhan took a step forward.
Noticing Cheng Shuhan's actions, Gao Yansheng frowned: "Whose child are you?"
When Chu Wanqing ran to Gao Yansheng, she saw that he was seriously injured. She supported him and said, "I'll take you away."
"Miss Chu, do you know that if today's events were to be spread, your reputation would be damaged?"
Gao Yansheng wanted to reject Chu Wanqing.
It is impossible for His Majesty to allow the Chu and Gao families to marry, as this will only make them restrain each other and become rivals.
"Reputation is not as important as life." Chu Wanqing felt that Gao Yansheng, a man, was not as insightful as she was.
Gao Yansheng said nothing more.
Just as the two were about to leave, Cheng Shuhan spoke up, "He's been poisoned by Hehuan Powder. If you don't detoxify him, he'll explode and die."
Gao Yansheng: “?” When did he take the Hehuan Powder?
Chu Wanqing: “!” How could such a young child know about Hehuan Powder?!
Cheng Shuhan twisted her fingers twice, and the picture suddenly froze. She used her spiritual energy to lift Gao Yansheng's clothes, put Chu Wanqing in his arms, and fed Gao Yansheng the memory confusion pill.
Fill the blank memory for Gao Yansheng.
"Ah!" Chu Wanqing screamed when the picture returned.
Her eyes were red and she pointed at Gao Yansheng, speechless.
Gao Yansheng hadn't expected that he would actually be poisoned by Hehuan Powder. The most important thing was that in the wilderness...
"Miss Chu, I will be responsible for you." Gao Yansheng said to Chu Wanqing solemnly, "I will go to the Chu family to discuss marriage."
Even if he took off his official robe, he still had to be responsible to Chu Wanqing.
Chu Wanqing covered her face and cried. Gao Yansheng felt overwhelmed. When he turned around, he saw Cheng Shuhan not far away.
Gao Yansheng: “…” Whose naughty kid is this? He won’t leave!
Cheng Shuhan saw Gao Yansheng's body stiffen when he looked at her, and she knew what he was thinking. She said to Gao Yansheng, "When you visited the palace at night three months ago, did you ever think about my presence?"
After saying this, Cheng Shuhan disappeared from Gao Yansheng's dream.
With the memory confusion pill, Gao Yansheng's relationship with Chu Wanqing is very complicated in his memory.
After Cheng Shuhan disappeared, Gao Yansheng opened his eyes.
A sharp glint flashed in his eyes.
He held his forehead, thinking about what happened three months ago and the letters people in Beijing had sent him.
Three months ago, he and Chu Wanqing...
The beautiful scene flashed before his eyes, and a look of unnaturalness flashed across his brows. He had to be poisoned in the beginning, but he didn't expect that he couldn't control himself three months ago.
After arriving in Beijing tomorrow, it is necessary to meet Chu Wanqing.
-
Chu Wanqing, who was thinking about how to persuade Gao Yansheng to work for her in the palace, didn't know that Cheng Shuhan had used a little trick to turn Gao Yansheng into the Gao next door.
"Your Majesty, please go to bed early." Hua Shan blew out the candle for Chu Wanqing.
Chu Wanqing leaned against the headboard and sighed softly: "Yeah."
She also wanted to rest early, but Gao Yansheng was a tough nut to crack, so she had to use some tricks.
Could it be that Qi Yi should prepare the medicine?
Gao Yansheng is not Li Hong. The other party has great skills and there is no guarantee that he will not notice.
Thinking about it, Chu Wanqing also knew that this matter could not be rushed, so she closed her eyes.
When the enemy comes, we will fight them; when the water comes, we will block it with earth.
The next day, the news of General Gao's return to the capital spread from the front court to the harem.
Gao Min is even more glorious.
However, in just a few months, General Gao returned to the capital, which shows how powerful General Gao was.
Gao Min was even specially allowed by Li Hong to go with him to the palace gate to welcome Gao Yansheng.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you." Gao Yansheng saw Gao Min following Li Hong from afar, welcoming him together.
He jumped off his horse, knelt on one knee, and spoke respectfully to Li Hong.
"Congratulations to General Gao on his triumphant return!" As soon as Li Hong's voice came out, all the officials behind him naturally followed.
Li Hong held a banquet to welcome Gao Yan.
Many concubines in the harem were invited, and Chu Wanqing was naturally among them.
Li Hong asked Chu Wanqing to follow him, not for anything else, but just to show off. No matter how many years passed, Gao Yansheng could not compete with him.
Chu Wanqing is still his.
When Gao Yansheng's eyes fell on Chu Wanqing, his brows furrowed tightly. He didn't expect that after just a few months of not seeing her, her face had become so sickly.
Li Hong took in his expression and saw a smug look in his eyes.
No matter how powerful your martial arts skills are, you still can’t marry the woman you love, right?
At the palace banquet, Gao Min was flattered by many concubines and was extremely honored.
Concubine Yun sat below with a smile on her face, sneering at Gao Min's complacency. A concubine's daughter is a concubine's daughter, and she will bloom with a little sunshine.
Chu Wanqing was in the distance, looking as if it had nothing to do with her.
Even though the Chu family members were on the other side, she never looked up.
When Concubine Yun noticed this, a look of contemplation flashed in her eyes.
She always felt that Chu Wanqing was planning something big.
Unfortunately, the people from the Yun family didn’t find out anything.
"Concubine Chu is in a bad mood today. Is it because she doesn't like the hustle and bustle, or does she think General Gao is not worthy of a lively palace banquet?" Chu Wanqing wanted to leave after eating, making an excuse that she was not feeling well, but Gao Min refused to let her go.
