Only the three of them were left in the room, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little heavy.
Even the candles in the room didn't dare to move.
"Dongmei, how's the situation?" Wu Tianlang asked.
Dong Mei seemed to be still unhappy that she was almost exposed. She glared at Wu Tianlang and said to Yang Yuhuan,""Imperial Concubine, when I went there, I happened to see that Gao Lishi wasn't with the Emperor. I told him that Imperial Concubine wanted to see him…"
"What did he say? What was his reaction?" Yang Yuhuan quickly asked.
"I felt that his reaction was very strong, as if he was hiding something from us. Looking at his expression, it was as if he had done something to let you down, Imperial Concubine."”
"If that's the case, it seems that the matter they discussed is unfavorable to the Imperial Concubine.”Wu Tianlang said.
Dong Mei rolled her eyes at Wu Tianlang. She realized that this kid was really a friendly person. It had only been a short while, and he didn't even treat her as an outsider!
"Do you mean that they really want to offer the Imperial Concubine to An Lushan? You want to use this to exchange for a retreat?" Dong Mei asked.
Wu Tianlang nodded and turned to Yang Yuhuan.""Imperial Concubine, did you see that? The Emperor's expression just now was very unnatural, including that Gao Lishi. He didn't even dare to meet your gaze.”
Yang Yuhuan listened to Wu Tianlang's words and recalled the scene just now. This further verified the fact that Li Longji had a change of heart.
It was fine if he had a change of heart, but if he used An Lushan to exchange for the throne, it would be too unreasonable!
Besides, would An Lushan really retreat after getting her? Would this fierce Hu not seize the country after obtaining the people?
"Dongmei, did you tell Ah Weng that I want to see him?”Yang Yuhuan asked again.
Dongmei replied," I told you. The Emperor appeared right after I said that. He said that he wanted to see you, so he came together."
Wu Tianlang recalled the situation earlier and said,""Imperial Concubine, I think this Gao Lishi really cares about your relationship. He didn't expose my identity just now, which is enough to prove it. I think we can discuss this matter with him.”
"Why don't we ask Dongmei to come over and invite Old Weng for a discussion?" Yang Yuhuan thought for a moment and said.”
Wu Tianlang nodded in agreement.
Dong Mei was also willing to go.
At this moment, there was the sound of someone pushing the door open!
"Who is it?" Dong Mei shouted.
"You have to rest so early, Imperial Concubine?”A shrill voice came from outside the door.
It was Gao Lishi!
Speak of the devil!
Wu Tianlang, Yang Yuhuan, and Dong Mei exchanged glances.
Then, Dong Mei went to open the door.
Wu Tianlang was really afraid that Gao Lishi was a sinister and cunning person. What if this guy had ulterior motives? He had seen through his identity and deliberately didn't expose him. Now, he had brought his men here to capture him. Wouldn't that be like catching a turtle in a jar?
It was a blessing, not a curse, and a curse could not be avoided!
Right now, Wu Tianlang was like a gambler with red eyes, waiting for the moment the cards were revealed!
Fortunately, Gao Lishi had come alone, and he was still dressed like before.
Gao Lishi was stunned when he saw Wu Tianlang.
He then glanced at Yang Yuhuan and said,"Imperial Concubine, why haven't you taken this person away? Could it be that the Imperial Concubine wanted him to stay the night?”
When Yang Yuhuan heard Gao Lishi's words, she was stunned for a moment before she suddenly understood.
Yang Yuhuan smiled and said,"Old Man, you misunderstood!" You must have taken this eunuch for something! Weng, you misunderstood Yuhuan. How could I do such a thing…"
Gao Lishi glanced at Wu Tianlang.
Wu Tianlang was also extremely nervous. They were now prepared to lay their cards on the table with Gao Lishi. If Gao Lishi did not agree, he, Wu Tianlang, as the only man in the room, would kill Gao Lishi on the spot in order to prevent this matter from being exposed!
Gao Lishi's expression was complicated.
Gao Lishi looked at Yang Yuhuan and said," Imperial Concubine, don't hide it from me. Actually, I already knew that he wasn't a eunuch just now. How could there be such a manly eunuch?!" This old servant also understands that it's normal for the Imperial Consort to have needs at her age, and the Emperor is also getting on in age, so naturally he can't satisfy the Imperial Consort…this old servant understands, this old servant understands!”
Seeing that Gao Lishi still thought so, Yang Yuhuan was unable to explain herself.
Wu Tianlang, who was standing at the side, finally understood. Gao Lishi had thought that the Imperial Concubine was too lonely to endure, and that he was a man whom the Imperial Concubine had found to solve her sleeping problem!
Sure! A eunuch like you really knows a lot! What a rich imagination!
Could it be that in your eyes, Noble Consort Yang is such a woman who doesn't want to be lonely?
At this moment, Dong Mei, who was standing at the side, saw Yang Yuhuan giving her a look. She stood up and said," Old Weng, the Imperial Concubine came to ask you for a favor-"
Gao Lishi looked at Dong Mei and then at Yang Yuhuan. He seemed to have sensed something and asked,"Imperial Concubine niangniang, look at you, why are you still so polite! If there's anything you need, just tell me. How can you use the word 'beginner'? This old slave really has a hard time!"
Yang Yuhuan looked at Gao Lishi with a serious expression." Old Man, I heard that the situation outside is very grim. It is said that some people suggested that the Emperor give me to An Lushan in exchange for a retreat…"
Gao Lishi's expression changed drastically when he heard this. How could such a thing happen? This old servant really doesn't know!"
Wu Tianlang had thought that Li Longji was a good actor, but he didn't expect Gao Lishi to be a potential contender for Best Actor!
You were the ones who instigated this, and now you're still pretending to be innocent? Wu Tianlang was furious.
" Weng, you may not know, but this may be the situation now--" Yang Yuhuan said helplessly.
Gao Lishi's eyes turned." Then, why did the Imperial Concubine summon this old servant here tonight?" he asked.“
At this moment, Yang Yuhuan did not know if Gao Lishi would sincerely want to help her. She was also afraid that Gao Lishi would betray her after agreeing to her request on the surface!
Hence, Yang Yuhuan wanted to get close to Gao Lishi.
Yang Yuhuan's big eyes were filled with innocence as she looked at Gao Lishi and said,"Old Man, perhaps Yuhuan won't live past these two days. If the Emperor really wants to hand me over to An Lushan, I will fight with my life! It's just that I can't bear to part with a benefactor like Ah Weng who helped me before."
Gao Lishi was touched and quickly said,"Your Highness, if we're talking about benefactors, you're the one who saved this old servant's life!" This old servant can't forget. If it wasn't for the Imperial Concubine pleading for this old servant at the critical moment, this old servant might have already died several times!”
Gao Lishi was deeply affected by his emotions, and memories of the past flashed through his mind.
It was said that accompanying the emperor was like accompanying a tiger. Although Gao Lishi was cautious, he still couldn't avoid making mistakes. Sometimes, when the emperor was unhappy, even if he did the right thing, it was still wrong.
Moreover, there were a few times when Gao Lishi had indeed made a big mistake. Li Longji was very angry. There was even a time when he wanted to kill himself. Fortunately, Yang Yuhuan had begged for leniency, which calmed Li Longji's anger.
Thinking of this, Gao Lishi suddenly felt that he had let Yang Yuhuan down!
"Imperial consort niangniang, this old servant is also a person who bought half of the yellow soil! Speaking of owing favors, this old servant might owe Imperial Concubine Your Highness a favor in this lifetime. Tell me, what do you need this old servant to do? As long as this old servant can do it, this old servant will definitely do it!”
"Alright then!" Yang Yuhuan tried her best to suppress the joy in her heart and sincerely said to Gao Lishi," Old Weng, Yuhuan wants you to help me escape."
