Even though Gao Lishi was mentally prepared, he was still shocked!
No one was willing to be a lamb at the mercy of others, let alone the peerless beauty of Imperial Concubine Yang!
Gao Lishi said," Imperial Concubine, I'll have to think about what you've said. But it's chaotic outside. Even if we manage to escape from the Horse Posthouse, we'll be easily discovered. Wouldn't it be even worse if we were caught?"”
At this moment, Wu Tianlang spoke,"Gao Lishi…"
Before he could finish his sentence, Gao Lishi glared at Wu Tianlang." What did you call me? Gao Lishi? Is this what you call it?"
Wu Tianlang was stunned. If he didn't want to call Gao Lishi, what should he call him? Call you Old Man like Yang Yuhuan? It seems that we don't have that kind of friendship, so it's not easy to call him that.
" Just call me Old Weng. Old Weng is an elder after all. You don't feel that you're at a disadvantage." Yang Yuhuan quickly helped him out.
When Wu Tianlang heard this, he thought to himself, What kind of elder is this Gao Lishi? He wasn't considered young, but should he be called an old man or an old lady?
Wu Tianlang chuckled." I'm sorry, Old Man, I'm new here. I really don't know the rules of the palace."
"I'm discussing matters with the Imperial Concubine, it's not up to you to interrupt! Hurry up and retreat!" Gao Lishi had displayed his authority as the chief steward of the palace, and Wu Tianlang was immediately frightened.
"Imperial Concubine niangniang, just now this old servant mistakenly thought that this person was someone you found to relieve your boredom. Since he isn't, then what does he do? "A man hiding in the Imperial Concubine's room, this is somewhat unreasonable," Gao Lishi said unhappily.
Yang Yuhuan quickly said,"Old Man, he came here specially to help me. He told me that a disaster had happened. At first, I didn't believe it, but now I believe it-"
After hearing Yang Yuhuan's words, Gao Lishi carefully sized up Wu Tianlang.
"Are you here to help the Imperial Concubine? He could even predict some disasters in advance? Can Imperial Concubine believe this?" Gao Lishi was a little suspicious.
"Then tell me, what did you foresee?”Gao Lishi stared at Wu Tianlang gloomily and asked.
Wu Tianlang thought about it and decided to tell Gao Lishi about the things in the history books.
Now, he had to get to the point. If it was possible, he had to let Gao Lishi have a quick talk. Otherwise, he would be dawdling until the second half of the night!
Therefore, Wu Tianlang said," Old Man, I've deduced from the divination that An Lushan won't come after us tomorrow. The Imperial Army is in chaos! You didn't hand over the Imperial Concubine to An Lushan, but the Emperor ordered the Imperial Concubine to be strangled to death. It was you who did it personally, Old Weng."
When Gao Lishi heard this, his body couldn't help but tremble. The Emperor ordered the Imperial Concubine to be strangled to death, and I did it myself? Young man, you really know how to make things up! You didn't even draft it!"
Wu Tianlang knew that Gao Lishi wouldn't believe him for a while, so he didn't insist. He continued,"" Old Weng, I'm sure you know the current situation. Crown Prince Li Heng is not fighting, causing An Lushan's rebel army to pursue them westward. At the same time, most of the Imperial Army has been transferred away by Crown Prince Li Heng. Chen Xuanli, the current commander of the Imperial Army, has been secretly plotting with Crown Prince Li Heng for a long time…"
"How do you know all this?" Gao Lishi's expression changed drastically.
These were all secret reports that only the Emperor knew about, but this brat actually knew so much. Gao Lishi was extremely terrified.
Seeing Gao Lishi's reaction, Wu Tianlang thought that if he told him everything he knew, he would definitely be scared to death.
Gao Lishi seemed to want to know what Wu Tianlang was going to do next, so he asked,"What's next? According to your speculation, what will happen next?”
Wu Tianlang then said,"Next, Chen Xuanli will cooperate with Crown Prince Li Heng's strategy and launch a mutiny at the Horse Posthouse. They will kill Prime Minister Yang Guozhong and force the Emperor to order the Imperial Consort to be executed."
"And then?" Gao Lishi's forehead was covered in sweat.
Gao Lishi had once analyzed the current situation. Judging from the current grim situation, what this kid said was not groundless.
"Old man, I heard that you strangled me to death with a three-foot-long white silk!”Yang Yuhuan said with a smile.
"Ah?" Gao Lishi was instantly shocked." How dare I? How can this old servant bear to do that?"
Yang Yuhuan smiled." I'm sure Old Weng won't be able to bear to part with Yuhuan, but if it's to protect the Emperor, he might do it!"”
Gao Lishi wiped the sweat off his forehead. His mind suddenly turned, thinking that these were all speculations. Even if they were very conjectures, they did not happen!
At this moment, Gao Lishi calmed down and said,"These are all the deductions of this fellow. It's purely his personal guess. If it was under normal circumstances, this would be the crime of deceiving the monarch and killing his entire family!”
Seeing that Gao Lishi was still unwilling to put down his airs, Yang Yuhuan said,"Old man, let's not talk about the possibility of these things for now. Yu Huan wants to escape now. Is old man willing to help me?"
Gao Lishi bit his lips and pinched the wrinkles on his face.
"Imperial Concubine, as I said just now, even if you escape from the Horse Posthouse, you will be captured soon.”Gao Lishi repeated his previous argument.
" Don't worry so much, Old Weng. Just help me buy as much time as you can," Yang Yuhuan said hurriedly." Even if Yuhuan is captured, whether by Crown Prince Li Heng's men or An Lushan's rebels, I won't tell anyone about you!”
Yang Yuhuan's words were somewhat miserable, and Gao Lishi couldn't help but be moved.
Gao Lishi sighed softly." Alright, this old servant promises you that if you need this old servant to do anything, this old servant will definitely cooperate fully to repay the Imperial Consort for saving your life back then.”
