first concubine

Chapter 948 The prodigal son.

He didn't doubt Wanqing, but he was afraid that Wanqing might remember something wrong.

When Wanqing heard Zhao Hanqi talk about her life experience, she didn't know why, a gleam flashed in her cloudy eyes, and it was fleeting. Zhao Hanqi, who was distracted, didn't even notice the different expression of the woman in front of her.

Just immersed in his own thoughts, he muttered to himself: "But I can't remember anything."

Wanqing stroked Zhao Hanqi's hand, and was still gentle and soft to persuade him: "Don't think too much, how can you believe what others say, Han Qi, in this world, we are relatives who depend on each other, you only have me, I only have you, too."

Zhao Hanqi looked at Wanqing, the worry and concern in the woman's eyes made him a little embarrassed.

But she said with some melancholy: "Of course I know that we are relatives who depend on each other for life, but Wanqing, you know, I really want to know my past, the past, who I am, and what I have experienced. It's an interesting thing."

In this world, who is willing to lose their ten years?
Zhao Hanqi didn't want to live in a muddle. He knew what others told him. It felt like his own life was in the hands of others. Not to mention how uncomfortable this feeling was.

However, he didn't want to make things difficult for Wanqing.

Wanqing calmed down, looked at Zhao Hanqi with those big dull eyes, and suddenly asked softly, "Who told you these words?"

These words actually contained some tentative emotions, more or less.

Zhao Hanqi didn't want Wanqing to know too much. Knowing too much might make her feel more uncomfortable. If she knew what kind of relationship he had with King Shura now, then she would definitely feel restless.

Will be very worried about him! !

Thinking of this, Zhao Hanqi lied: "I heard someone say it by accident. I don't know who those people are. They left after discussing. I just felt confused, so I came back to ask you."

He tried his best to behave calmly and spoke very smoothly.

However, Wanqing just looked at him steadfastly, obviously her eyes were invisible, but he just felt that there was a piercing brightness behind this woman's cloudy eyes, which could make his heart, see It is extremely transparent.

Let him feel ashamed of this little lie.

After a long time, Wanqing finally sighed softly: "Before, you never lied to me. During the cold period, what made you change?"

Zhao Hanqi's heart skipped a beat, Wanqing in front of him still looked dull, his eyes were dull and he couldn't see anything, but he seemed to be able to see everything, every little movement and emotion hidden behind his eyes.

He could only bite the bullet and say, "How did Wanqing know that I was lying?"

"When you talk to me in front of you, you never think about anything. If you have something to say directly, I can't feel your hesitation, but now, every word you say is hesitant." Wanqing was very Shaking his head in disappointment.

A woman's intuition is very sensitive, and Wanqing is very clear about Zhao Hanqi's changes.

A word or a look from him can betray him.

Zhao Hanqi didn't know whether he should tell her or continue to hide his thoughts after being exposed by Wanqing in such a way. In fact, he himself didn't know why he started to hesitate when speaking in front of Wanqing.

Before, he really never lied to her.

Perhaps, it started when he knew that there were some hidden secrets about his identity that he couldn't figure out, when he discovered that what Wanqing said to him was not true, or when Yun Xi said that she wanted him to Be careful of the people around you at that moment.

In short, subconsciously, he couldn't trust the people around him.

Zhan Yu's behavior is getting more and more weird, and his guard against him makes him feel a little discouraged, just like this trip to Xiliang, although Zhan Yu sent him and Bai Yuan to carry out this task.

However, the only one who can touch the core of this mission is Baiyuan.

And he must stay ten feet away from that carriage and not get closer.

The emperor made it clear that he didn't trust him, so he was always on guard against him, but he trusted Bai Yuan 100%, and he could let Bai Yuan do anything.

Under such a comparison, Zhao Hanqi also felt disheartened.

Hearing that Zhao Hanqi kept silent, Wanqing seemed to feel that what she said was too straightforward and unpleasant. The atmosphere was a little awkward, and she quickly opened her mouth to smooth things over: "I know you don't want to worry me, but Han Qi, if something happens to you I don't know anything, do you think I will feel guilty and sad?"

Speaking of this, the woman's eyes were already a little wet, she raised her hand and put it on the side of her cheek, rubbing it gently against her own face, and said softly: "Did the emperor make things difficult for you? "

She also knew the emperor's wariness towards Zhao Hanqi.

Although a certain amount of military power was handed over to him, some military power that could not touch the power of the government was also closed at the border.

It was only recently that he was called back. Although he was called back to the capital, he might not be of much use.

Can't bear to let Wanqing keep guessing, Zhao Hanqi finally told the truth: "It's not that the emperor made things difficult for me. I met a killer when I was on a mission today, and I found out later that it was the killer of Shura Palace. He came to the capital to clean up Gate, kill the traitors from Shura Palace."

When Zhao Hanqi said this, Wanqing was obviously more nervous than Zhao Hanqi, she held his hand and urged him: "What happened afterwards?"

She seemed to be very sensitive to the name Shura Palace. When Zhao Hanqi mentioned Shura Palace, the woman's hand that was gently stroking him suddenly stopped, and she listened attentively to Zhao Hanqi's continuation.

Zhao Hanqi only thought she was impatient, so he continued: "The killer led me to a stronghold in Shura Palace. I met King Shura, and he was the one who told me that I used to be in Zhao Palace, and then the imperial city was in chaos. , and I'm in exile."

After a pause,
Only then did Zhao Hanqi look at Wanqing, and asked her melancholy: "Wanqing, did you forget something important and didn't tell me?"

"impossible."

Wanqing's tone suddenly became agitated, and she said resolutely: "We grew up together and went into exile all the way to the capital, how could you be a member of Zhao Wang's palace? Then King Shura must be a prodigal son, talking nonsense !!"

Speaking of this, Wanqing got a little angry, grabbed Zhao Hanqi's hand and asked him: "Hanqi, you met King Shura, tell me quickly, what does he look like? Where is the stronghold of Shura Palace?"
