Chapter 39 Farewell
The dinner ended quickly, and Li Lingyue and He Lanminzhi followed Empress Wu out of Linde Hall.

He Lan Minzhi, who wanted to continue fighting, said softly to Empress Wu:
"Auntie, the prince's side..."

Unexpectedly, just halfway through speaking, Empress Wu who was walking in front suddenly turned around and slapped He Lan Minzhi on the face.

He Lan Minzhi didn't dodge, and received a slap, five finger prints soon appeared on her fair cheeks, which showed how hard the slap was.

"Go back to Dongdu tonight, don't set foot in Chang'an without my order!" Empress Wu sternly ordered.

Witnessing this scene, Li Lingyue felt turbulent in her heart: "Sure enough!My old lady is not so easy to fool! '

Li Lingyue guessed that A Niang had already seen through everything in her radical actions, but what puzzled her was that since A Niang knew that her nephew was digging a hole for her, why would she let him go? This is really a bit abnormal.

He Lanmin, who was slapped, was not angry at all, and bowed respectfully to Empress Wu:

"Auntie, calm down, my nephew will go back to Dongdu right away!"

After all, he took a few steps back, then turned and left.

Li Lingyue walked with Empress Wu for a while, found an excuse on the way, and chased after the palace gate alone.She had something to say to He Lanminzhi, and she was worried that if she didn't say it, she would have no chance in the future.

She ran all the way, and when she came to Chengtian Gate, she saw He Lanmin leaning against the stone fence, looking at the bright night sky by herself, wondering what she was thinking.

"cousin!"

Li Lingyue strolled up to her and called out.

He Lanminzhi recovered from his thoughts, straightened his sleeves, and was about to salute Li Lingyue, Li Lingyue waved quickly.

"It's just you and me here, so the etiquette will be waived!" Li Lingyue said while lying on the stone railing, looking at the night sky.

He Lanmin smiled and leaned against the stone railing. A handsome young man and a clever girl looked at the stars tacitly for a while.

"Cousin, listen to my little sister, don't provoke her anymore!"

After a long time, Li Lingyue broke the silence and looked at He Lanminzhi.

Of course He Lan Minzhi knew who Li Lingyue was referring to by 'she', and he couldn't hate this enemy's daughter, on the contrary, the longer they got along, the more he loved her.

He smiled faintly, and stretched out his hand subconsciously, imagining how to pinch Li Lingyue's little face like before, but he stretched his hand halfway, and retracted it again.

"Thank you cousin for caring, brother knows what to do!"

He Lanminzhi was just perfunctory, and didn't mean to let it go, so Li Lingyue had no choice but to remind him fruitfully:

"Cousin, you know that that slap just now may be her last kindness, and there will be no next time!"

After Li Lingyue finished speaking, seeing He Lanminzhi staring at her unblinkingly, she realized that at her current age and temperament, she didn't have the thinking of an adult at all. But it's unbelievable to say it from a ten-year-old girl.

"Don't look at me like that, I've been by A Niang's side all the time, so I can more or less figure out what she's thinking!"

Li Lingyue straightened her hair by her ear, and found a reason to prevaricate, but heard He Lanmin asked:

"Then how did you know what you think about being a brother? You must have seen through everything that happened in the palace just now! Otherwise, you wouldn't have rescued her at a critical moment."

Li Lingyue didn't know how to answer, she couldn't say that she was a time traveler, so after thinking about it, she simply changed the subject and said:

"I just came here to remind my cousin, don't provoke A Niang any more, otherwise, you may get killed. Having said that, I hope my cousin will think about it more, my little sister is going back!"

After finishing speaking, Li Lingyue bowed slightly, took her leave and left.

There is no way, Li Lingyue has known He Lanminzhi for many years, and she has already developed a family affection for this cousin. Even if she came from time travel, she is still a mortal with flesh and blood. To be a human being, one must have feelings. The elder brother who was [-] years old died tragically at the hands of her mother. She didn't want to see similar tragedies.

"cousin!"

Li Lingyue, who had walked more than a dozen steps, was stopped by He Lanminzhi. She turned to look at the other party, and saw He Lanminzhi smiled gently at her, clasped her hands together, and bowed to thank her.

"This farewell, I don't know when I will see you again, take care!"

……

After one night, I thought everything would be calm, but as soon as Empress Wu and Li Zhi went to the court, the ministers came forward one after another to convict He Lanmin and put him in prison.

I don't know if someone spread the word on purpose or accidentally, but the incident of He Lanmin's rape and murder of the Crown Princess caused a commotion all over the city, and everyone knew about it.

This time, it wasn't just that Empress Wu couldn't step down, Prince Li Hong was ashamed when he learned about it.

Fortunately, Empress Wu saved her hand. On the night when she returned to Hanliang Hall, she asked Cui Daizhao to bury the bodies of Yang Sijian's father and daughter secretly. Outsiders did not know whether the two were dead or alive.

In order to prevent the royal family scandal from continuing to escalate, Empress Wu took strong measures. The court denied the rape and murder. At the same time, several major crimes against Yang Sijian were presented in the Dali Temple. It is reasonable for the concubine to register separately.

……

At dusk, on the official road from Chang'an to Luoyang, the eastern capital, an exquisite horse-drawn carriage moved slowly.

Inside the carriage, sandalwood scented, and at the primary and secondary ends, sat a man and a woman respectively.

He Lanminzhi picked up the teapot on the small table, refilled two cups of fragrant tea, pushed one of the cups towards the woman in white, picked up the other cup, and drank leisurely.

The woman in white was none other than Xue Shao's personal maid—Yan'er.

He Lanmin took a sip of the tea, seeing that Yan'er was not moving at all, she didn't care, leaned back on the soft couch, and asked jokingly:
"I don't know what's wrong with Miss Yan'er catching up to me so far away?"

Yan'er looked at He Lan Minzhi, and replied coldly: "My son is very angry with the stupid things you did!"

He Lanmin laughed: "I'm just helping the prince to see the viciousness of the demon queen early, so that he can make up his mind to fight against the demon queen together with you. With the help of the prince, your chances of winning will be even greater. How can this be called stupid?"

Speaking of this, He Lanmin paused, and said with disdain: "Furthermore, whether your young master is angry or not, has nothing to do with me?"

Yan'er frowned, and pulled out the sword with a swish, and put the blade on He Lanminzhi's neck:

"If you dare to disrespect the young master again, I will kill you!"

He Lanminzhi didn't hesitate at all, instead stretched his neck, making the sword stick tighter:
"Come, come, just kill me. If I were afraid of death, I wouldn't openly rape and kill the Crown Princess, and I wouldn't release the news overnight for everyone to know!"

Yan'er withdrew her sharp sword and gave him a contemptuous look.

"You think that plotting a 'mother-son killing' scene is considered revenge. It's ridiculous. My son said that the demon queen's real rebel is not her son!"

"Who is it!" He Lanmin's expression changed, and he asked immediately.

"Fool, of course it's that princess. The young master said, if you really want revenge, you can find a way to kill her daughter. This will be the most fatal blow to the Demon Queen! Just imagine, if you kill Does the person the Demon Empress cares about the most have a greater sense of revenge than killing herself!"

After Yan'er finished speaking, He Lanmin's breathing became short, and that exquisite and intelligent figure appeared in her mind...

Years of getting along has made him ignore the relationship between the princess and Empress Wu, and now that someone mentions it, he is a little emotional...

 Yesterday, I forgot to post, alas
