Chapter 18 Bane

Hanliang Hall finally arrived, and more than a dozen prison guards were guarding the hall. When Yang Hao came over, a lieutenant stepped forward and said, "Guo Qin has been taken down by the last general. Please let the general fall." Yang Hao said "yes", and put on his robe and took the lieutenant into the hall. A cool breeze blew over his face, and Hanliang Hall was well-known.

A eunuch sat cross-legged in front of the dantian, holding his hands in front of his dantian, closing his eyes to rest.

"You are Guo Qin?" Yang Hao asked.

The eunuch nodded, without saying a word or opening his eyes.

The eunuch Wang Chun, who was sent to the imperial eunuch, circled Guo Qin and gave Yang Hao an affirmative look. In addition to promulgating the imperial edict, he actually also took the responsibility of distinguishing his true body.

"Follow me." Yang Hao shouted.

"Wait, general." The captain of the prison gate stopped him, "The Empress has something to ask the general."

"Mom, Empress, who Empress?" Yang Hao was suspicious, but he didn't ask. Now he felt that he was the one Liu Laolao who had never seen the world. He didn't know anything anyway, so he simply didn't ask anything to avoid being annoyed.

"It's Concubine Yang, His Majesty's favorite empress." Wang Chun reminded in a low voice. This made Yang Hao feel a little more favorable to him.

In Hanliang Hall, there is a white jade bathhouse built by Emperor Ming of Tang specially for his beloved Yang Guifei. The bathhouse is dozens of feet long and wide, made of white jade, and is decorated with gold foil and jade. The entire bathhouse looks rich and not luxurious. The water used in the bathhouse is transported from the Lishan Hot Spring. When the concubines took the bath, the palace maids sprinkled fresh and fragrant petals in the bathhouse. At this time, the sun shines in from the bright tiles on the roof of the hall, illuminating the entire bathhouse, bright, romantic and comfortable.

"I was given a bath in Huaqing Pool in the spring cold, and the hot spring water washed the grease smoothly." Yang Hao remembered these two lines of poetry in Bai Juyi's "Song of Everlasting Sorrow". Unfortunately, the beauty has passed away, leaving only future generations to sigh.

At this time, there was no drop of water in the white jade pond. A young woman in the palace dress stood on the shore. Her back was facing Yang Hao, and her figure was slim and soft. Yang Hao's heart couldn't help but pound: Such a beautiful woman is rare in the world.

"My minister Yang Hao will meet the concubine Yang."

"General Yang is flat."

"Xie Niangniang."

When Yang Hao got up, he secretly looked at Concubine Yang. But coincidentally she was looking at herself. She looked at her two eyes. Concubine Yang smiled, but Yang Hao hurriedly lowered her head, but he was thinking in his heart that she looked like she had just put on makeup. What does it mean? A woman dressed up for those who pleased herself. Could she dressed up for me?

Yang Hao couldn't help but feel complacent when he thought of this. Concubine Yang had really just dressed up. Of course, she didn't do it for Yang Hao. Her original makeup was ruined by King An Li Rong. Thinking of King An Li Rong, Concubine Yang felt a pain in her heart again. She tried her best to hide the pain in her heart and forced a smile.

"Where is General Yang's ancestral home?"

"I'm the queen, my ancestral home is Fufeng County, Jingzhao."

"Is that true?" Concubine Yang seemed very surprised, "The Ai family is also from Fufeng! We are fellow villagers."

"I have heard of it a long time ago. The old stories about the Empress are circulated in my hometown." Yang Hao flattered him. In fact, he had not even figured out the direction of Fufeng in Chang'an.

"Oh, is that?" Yang Fei smiled, then sighed slightly, "The Ai family has been wandering with her father since childhood, and has never returned to their hometown. It is rare that they still remember me."

Yang Hao was shocked and sweated in a cold sweat: Concubine Yang quietly exposes her lies, but stops at the right time and saves her face.

"What is Your Majesty's will to Guo Qin?" Concubine Yang suddenly asked, her tone seemed a little anxious.

"Your Majesty ordered me to arrest Guo Qin, but there was no other decree."

"So, Your Majesty still wants to let him go." Concubine Yang seemed a little disappointed, and she sighed slightly, "Please take him there."

"Yes." Yang Hao replied. He couldn't help but look at Yang Fei again, and suddenly said, "The Empress seems to be a little depressed." "Ah," Yang Fei was startled and hurriedly touched her face, "Oh, maybe she was a little scared when she took Guo Qin just now. Thank you for your concern."

Yang Hao nodded and said, "It's cold, so the empress in Hanliang Palace should not come." After that, he turned around and went out. Concubine Yang silently looked at Yang Hao's departure back, her eyes filled with tears.

When Yang Hao walked out of the inner hall, he saw Wang Chun squatting on the ground and talking to Guo Qin, and his voice was extremely low. Yang Hao coughed lightly. When Wang Chun saw Yang Hao coming out, he hurriedly stood up to greet him and said, "I have something to say to the general."

"My father-in-law just says something."

"I have a few words to say to Guo Qin alone."

"Didn't my father-in-law finish it just now?" Yang Hao sneered, "Then please continue talking."

Yang Hao strode out of Hanliang Hall. Somehow, his eyes were full of the shadow of Concubine Yang. Her every frown and smile was lifelike as if in front of him.

The Dragon Cavalry Guard and the Golden Sword Guard also retreated outside the hall. The gate of the hall closed gently, leaving only a narrow gap. It was convenient for the guards to stare at Guo Qin and Wang Chun, and no one dared to make any mistakes about life and death.

When Yang Hao looked up, a rippling lake suddenly appeared in front of him. There were three small islands in the lake, and there were pavilions on the island. Around the lake, weeping willows are like smoke, and pavilions are like picturesque, which are so beautiful.

Yang Hao felt that he was suddenly hung in the air, not reaching the world or the earth, what is this? Is it the legendary Yaochi Fairyland? He closed his eyes intoxicatedly. It was enough. This scene should only be found in the sky. It would be enough for mortals to take a look at it, so as not to get trapped in it and unable to extricate themselves.

"General Yang, it's time to go to Zichen Palace to submit the order." Wang Chun reminded softly.

"Oh, Zichen Palace, why has it been changed to Zichen Palace?" Yang Hao was a little puzzled, but he didn't think much about it. Anyway, in this Daming Palace, he couldn't tell the difference between the east, west, south, and north, so he followed Wang Chun. Wang Chun was kind and capable. Yang Hao thought that if he was not a eunuch, he might be able to make friends with him.
