After the rebirth, the empress took the tragic script of Meiqiang

Chapter 78 Gold Medal

The hesitation in the catcher's eyes flashed, and he kowtowed quickly and said, "Isn't your majesty making things difficult for you? Your majesty took the prisoner privately, and if the news spread, it would damage your majesty's reputation."

There was already a threat in his words.

Ye Qinghuai did not take this trick, and sneered: "If you don't tell me, who will know? If my reputation is damaged, I should be the first to question you!"

She bent down, leaned close to the catcher's ear, and lowered her voice: "I will marry Mr. Gu Ge's daughter next month. Mr. Gu Ge will not want a notorious son-in-law."

After saying that, she straightened up again and smiled meaningfully at the catcher.

The head catcher's expression really relaxed.

It seems that although he is not afraid of the emperor, he is still very afraid of Gu Shihai.

Ye Qinghuai saw his seven inches, and gave him another reassurance, saying: "If Dali Temple and the cabinet ask about it, just say that I personally came to take the people away. If they have any objections, let them

Go to the Hall of Supreme Harmony tomorrow and ask for someone from me."

The emperor's words cleared away all the ties that had been attached to the catcher. The catcher then stood up and ordered his men to unshackle Lu Yanchen.

Ye Qinghuai stared closely at the patrolman's movements to remove the shackles throughout the process, and did not notice that Lu Yanchen never took his eyes off her from the beginning to the end.

His eyes were already a little distracted, and even his breathing was a little labored, but he was still holding on.

"Sir, I will help you get into the car." Ye Qinghuai said after the shackles were removed.

Ye Qinghuai spoke to Lu Yanchen, her tone gentle and respectful, like a good student who was humble and polite.

Lu Yanchen was so injured that he would definitely not be able to ride a horse. If he called for a carriage at this moment, it would be delayed, and it was not wise to stay at the entrance of the criminal department for a long time. Ye Qinghuai simply commandeered the carriage that the criminal department secretly escorted prisoners.

Although this carriage is simple, it is still useful.

"Qin Yang, you drive." After Ye Qinghuai finished speaking, he saw Qin Yang coming over to take the reins of the carriage, and then followed Lu Yanchen and got into the carriage.

The wooden cart swayed away from the entrance of the criminal department and disappeared from everyone's sight.

The catcher cursed in his mind: This Lu Yanchen is really evil, who does he belong to?

——

"Qin Yang, go to Donglinmen and go directly back to Jingshou Palace." After Ye Qinghuai gave the instructions, he saw Qin Yang nodded and said, "Take the main road. The small road is bumpy, and the gentleman can't bear it."

Qin Yang nodded again.

Ye Qinghuai lowered the curtain.

The carriage was not big, it could only seat four people, and it had no windows. Once the curtains were closed, there was a faint smell of rotten wood inside the carriage.

Ye Qinghuai and Lu Yanchen sat face to face. Lu Yanchen straightened his back and leaned on the rigid side board. He closed his eyes and put his hands on his legs, as if he had fallen asleep from exhaustion.

This was how he described it from the moment he got in the car.

It was dark inside the car, and Ye Qinghuai could only observe Lu Yanchen's situation through the faint light coming in from outside the curtain from time to time.

She didn't know where Lu Yanchen was injured or how he was injured, but based on her understanding of Lu Yanchen, she knew that Lu Yanchen's injury must be more serious than what he showed.

Not knowing Lu Yanchen's true situation, Ye Qinghuai felt confused.

She was worried that Lu Yanchen would be like Qin Baozhu.

This car is too stuffy, Ye Qinghuai said to herself. Sweat broke out on her forehead.

She felt as if her heart was being held by an invisible hand, allowing her to clearly feel her rapid heartbeat.

"Sir..." Ye Qinghuai hesitantly called out softly.

She was looking forward to him waking up so that she could feel at ease, but she was also afraid that she would wake him up.

After a while, Lu Yanchen opened his eyes very tiredly. Just as the car turned a corner, the car curtain was opened, and the moonlight shone on Ye Qinghuai's face.

Lu Yanchen had never seen her look like this.

Her eyes were full of worry and fear, and she was as helpless as a child, praying to God to save the life of the person in front of her.

He is completely different from the decisive and murderous young emperor in the daytime. He is as weak as a girl.

In just a moment, the curtain was closed.

Everything is hidden in darkness.

Even Ye Qinghuai's weakness was fleeting in the flash of lightning.

But it completely fell into Lu Yanchen's eyes.

He raised the corner of his mouth, as if he wanted to give Ye Qinghuai a comforting smile, but he remembered that she couldn't see it in the dark.

So he raised his hand and gently touched her head.

"Don't be afraid..."

As soon as he opened his mouth, he realized how weak his voice was.

Lu Yanchen put down his hands, took a few deep breaths, then raised his hands with great effort and started searching around his waist.

There was a hidden inner pocket in his belt. He carefully took out a gold medal from the inner pocket with his slender but blood-stained hands, handed it to Ye Qinghuai, and then held Ye Qinghuai's hand.

Hold on to that gold medal.

This is something he tried his best to hide away from the eyes of his enemies.

"Take it and go find Li Baoquan." He suppressed a cough and said, "If it's me... if something happens to me, Your Majesty... remember to go find him."

After saying that, he leaned against the side wall again, closed his eyes, and dropped his hands.

Ye Qinghuai opened his palm and saw the small but heavy imperial gold medal.

On the back is written the imperial title of Emperor Junping.

This is the second time she has seen this gold medal.

The last time was the night of curfew when I was rescued by Lu Yanchen in the ghost market.

At that time, she once asked Lu Yanchen why the late emperor secretly gave him this gold medal without telling her and the ministers.

Lu Yanchen didn't answer her.

And he told her very bluntly that he could not tell her the reason yet.

He didn't even make up a reason.

Ye Qinghuai even suspected that his father had once given Lu Yanchen an order to kill the faint king and kill the sycophants. But this was quickly denied by Lu Yanchen.

But now that Lu Yanchen was about to die, he so solemnly entrusted her with this gold medal, which shows how important it is.

And what does this have to do with Li Baoquan?

Why did Lu Yanchen say that if something happened to him, he would ask Ye Qinghuai to take the gold medal to Li Baoquan?

Did Li Baoquan also know that the late emperor gave Lu Yanchen the gold medal?

Is Li Baoquan's message to Lu Yanchen related to the gold medal?

For a time, countless thoughts passed through Ye Qinghuai's mind.

She unconsciously squeezed the gold medal in her hand and frowned.

While she was thinking about it, the carriage hit a stone and suddenly jolted.

Lu Yanchen's straight upper body suddenly softened and slowly slid down the side wall.

Ye Qinghuai's heart suddenly rose to her throat again.

Ignoring the injury on her left shoulder, she stretched out her left hand to support his leaning body, then lifted the hem of her clothes, turned around and sat next to Lu Yanchen, letting him fall on her shoulder.

Ye Qinghuai stretched out her hand to feel his breath.

Incomprehensible.

Ye Qinghuai was so anxious that he started to sweat.

She should have known that if his temperament hadn't reached the point where he couldn't hold on any longer, he would never have said such words as "If something happens to me."

"Qin Yang, hurry up!" Ye Qinghuai's anxious voice came from the carriage.
