After Gao Lishi left, the room fell silent again.
The three of them had been full of confidence, but after Gao Lishi's analysis, things didn't seem to be as simple as they had imagined.
However, no matter how difficult this matter was, he had to continue.
" Imperial Concubine, why don't I call the three of them over now and discuss who can take on the great responsibility…" Dong Mei asked Yang Yuhuan.
"Dongmei, are they reliable?”Wu Tianlang asked. He was worried that if he told Chun Tao and the others about this, they would be afraid.
If any of them were to leak the news out of fear, it would ruin the whole plan!
Seeing Wu Tianlang's doubt, Dong Mei smiled and looked at Yang Yuhuan." What do you think, Imperial Concubine?”
Yang Yuhuan nodded at Wu Tianlang." The four of them have been with me for many years and know me very well. They definitely won't stand by and do nothing at a time like this.”
" That's good, Imperial Concubine. I'll call them over now." With that, Dong Mei hurried out.
The atmosphere became even more tense.
Wu Tianlang was still in the mood to secretly take a look at the beautiful Yang Yuhuan, but now that he was anxious, he had no time to care about this matter.
"Tianlang, I don't know why, but I suddenly have a bad feeling. I feel like my life is coming to an end!”Yang Yuhuan said sadly.
When Wu Tianlang heard this, he quickly said," Imperial Concubine, you're thinking too much. As the saying goes, good people have their own blessings. The heavens gave you such a beautiful appearance. How could they bear to let you leave this world?!"”
Hearing Wu Tianlang praise her like that, Yang Yuhuan felt very pleased and smiled like a flower.""I didn't expect you to be so frivolous when you speak.”
"It's always been like this!" Wu Tianlang said.
"But, Tianlang, haven't you heard of the saying that a beautiful woman has a bad life?”Yang Yuhuan said," Think about the three great beauties of the past, Xi Shi, Diao Chan, and Wang Zhaojun. Who had a better ending?”
Wu Tianlang thought for a while. It was true. Among the three beauties, only Xi Shi had a better ending. Although she served many people, it was said that she had quietly retired with Fan Li. As for Diao Chan and Wang Zhaojun, they had both become political sacrifices!
And the Yang Noble Consort in front of him was also a victim of politics!
At the thought of this, Wu Tianlang sighed. I can't let history repeat itself!
"Imperial Concubine, we don't need to think too much now. As long as we can escape, I believe that there will be a place for Imperial Concubine in this vast world. I don't believe that the Emperor of the Great Tang will want to dig three feet into the ground to find you! "Wu Tianlang said.
Speaking of digging three feet into the ground, Wu Tianlang felt that it was a little unlucky. He remembered that after Yang Guifei was strangled to death, she was buried under Mawei Hill. It was very miserable.
Later, it was said that after Li Longji gave up the throne, he could not bear it and wanted to transport Yang Yuhuan's bones back to Chang 'an for a proper burial. However, when he opened the burial place at Mawei Slope, he found that the tomb was empty and there were no bones.
Of course, these were all legends, and there was no conclusive evidence.
……
Wu Tianlang and Yang Yuhuan were chatting when Dong Mei brought the three ladies into the room.
Xia He and Qiu Ju were stunned when they saw an unfamiliar eunuch standing there. Chun Tao had seen Wu Tianlang before and was not too surprised. She just did not know what had happened.
Dong Mei locked the door of the outer room and came to the inner room, explaining the whole thing clearly.
When Chun Tao, Xia He, and Qiu Ju heard this, their faces revealed a nervous expression.
Yang Yuhuan looked at the three of them and said,"Chun Tao, Xia He, Qiu Ju, this matter is no small matter. It's very likely that your lives will be in danger, so I can't force you. If any of you are unwilling, you can choose not to participate in this matter. When the time comes, you can just take some valuables and escape..."
These words made the three girls cry bitterly. Chun Tao cried and said,"Imperial Concubine, what are you saying? This is precisely the time when the Imperial Concubine needs us, how can we leave her in the lurch!”
"Yes, Imperial Concubine!" Xia Xue also said," In the past few years, the Imperial Concubine has treated us like family. This is the time for us to repay you!"”
Xia Xue went out to pick flowers in the afternoon and was humiliated by the rogue soldiers. At this time, her face was still a bit bad.
Qiu Ju also said,"Imperial Concubine, don't worry. No matter what happens, we'll bear it together!" Since we have a plan now, let's act according to it. No matter who gets assigned, Qiu Ju will definitely not take a step back!”
This was really a test of a person's heart!
When Yang Yuhuan heard their words, she was very touched. She even regretted not treating them better before!
Wu Tianlang was also moved by this, even though he knew that Yang Yuhuan lived a luxurious life. It was said that she had to rely on fast horses to deliver lychees from the south.
However, after seeing how loyal these palace maids were to her today, Wu Tianlang knew that Yang Yuhuan was a good person.
Otherwise, who would be willing to risk their lives for her at this time?
"Alright, my three sisters!" Dong Mei was the oldest among the four of them. She said,"Since everyone is willing to contribute to the Imperial Concubine, let's wait for Ah Weng's letter. When we have discussed the countermeasures, the four of us will each have our own division of labor. When the time comes, we will act according to the division of labor.”
When Yang Yuhuan saw this, she was extremely emotional.
She took out a handkerchief and said,"Today, you are willing to risk your lives for me. Yuhuan, I am extremely grateful. No matter what the outcome is in the future, I, Yang Yuhuan, will treat you all as my biological sisters! Here is a handkerchief that I personally embroidered. You can split it into four pieces and keep it for when you meet each other."
"What about me, Imperial Consort? Although I'm not a woman and can't be your sister, can you give me a share too?”Wu Tianlang said with a smile.
The originally heavy atmosphere was suddenly disrupted by Wu Tianlang.
Dong Mei smiled and said," Why don't you divide this handkerchief into six pieces? We'll each take one as a souvenir. If we meet in the future, we can use this as proof!"”
In fact, Dong Mei was smiling, but she was a little sad. She knew the risks of this plan, especially her, who would be exposed sooner or later if she stayed in the Horse Posthouse and pretended to be Noble Consort Yang.
However, things had come to this. Dong Mei only hoped that she would not die too horribly.
Yang Yuhuan took a pair of scissors and cut the pink handkerchief embroidered with mandarin ducks and butterflies into six pieces. Everyone held one piece each.
Ladies first, Wu Tianlang got the last piece.
Unfortunately, this handkerchief was mostly pink, and there was only half a butterfly embroidered on the cut edge.
It was a little regretful, but there were still some gains!
This was a half-butterfly embroidered by the peerless beauty, Imperial Concubine Yang!
Everyone was enveloped in a solemn and generous atmosphere, like soldiers waiting to rush to the front line.
At this moment, the sound of the door being pushed open came from outside the door!
"Who is it?" Dong Mei shouted calmly!
