When the black iron torrent rushed into Ye City, the crowd was first in a state of panic, and after the torrent passed by, the murmurs began to rise to the sky.

  Sitting in a wine house, the elegant and beautiful Guangping King stared blankly at this scene, until the black tide had passed, he suddenly exclaimed: "Has Gao Zhang gone mad?"

  With him was an old minister of the court, who held Zhang Gui in his arms. The King of Lanling, wearing armor, looked at him and said: "He is unyielding because he has no desires!"

  Gao Changgong, for the sake of a woman, did not hesitate to publicly humiliate the Empress and the Emperor, can this be called being uncorrupted by desires?

  The Emperor Guangping was a bit puzzled, and the old minister explained seriously: "Whether the military power is in his hands or not, he doesn't care. Whether Your Majesty remembers hatred or not, he also doesn't care. He only cares about the woman in his arms. For that woman, even if Your Majesty takes back the military power that was just handed over to him, he doesn't mind... Although he is arrogant, this kind of straightforward and uncalculating personality, Your Majesty can actually feel at ease."

  The King of Guangping nodded casually, his eyes lingering on the distant floodwaters. Suddenly, he let out a long sigh and muttered to himself: "This guy is really crazy!" For some reason, thinking about Gao Changgong's temperament and seeing him treasure that beauty like a precious gem, he felt inexplicably annoyed. He raised his wine cup and gulped it down in one swallow.

  The flood rushed into the Langling Wangfu.

  As soon as he returned to the Langling Wangfu, Gao Zhanggong jumped off his horseback and handed Zhang Qi over to Ah Lu who had rushed to welcome him. He then turned around and left - the person has been found, now it's time to deal with the aftermath.

  The King of Lanling was busy all day after he left. When he rode his horse back to the mansion, it was already sunset.

  At first, I didn't feel it, but as time went on, he became more and more homesick.

  He pushed open the courtyard gate with a loud creak!

  In the courtyard, standing is that beautiful as a painting figure!

  The King of Lanling walked towards her with big strides.

  Hearing the footsteps coming from behind, Zhang Qi slowly turned around.

  She had just bathed, her black hair was wet and stuck to the side of her face, which was as smooth as snow. Under the sunset, those sparkling eyes were quietly looking at him.

  But in a few days, her rosy cheeks were all gone, and she had turned deathly pale.

  Looking at Zhang Gui standing alone in the wind, even more frail and weak, the King of Lanling stopped in his tracks.

  He looked at her gently and stretched out his hands, gesturing for her to come closer.

  Zhang Qi did not approach.

  Looking at him, looking at his dusty face, the newly grown stubble on his chin, looking at this face that can confuse all the women in the world, looking at the warmth in his eyes that can drown people.

  On Zhang Yi's face, which was as beautiful as a flower and had no equal, a cold light flickered. She looked at him quietly, her lips curving up slightly before she spoke softly: "Prince... our fate has come to an end, let me go!"

  She didn't even call him by his name!

  After going through so much hardship, she finally returned to his side. Any other woman would be overjoyed, but she was as cold as ice!

  She looked at him with a gaze as if he were a stranger. As if the past tenderness, the past affectionate love, were all just an illusion!

  It was as if he had been drenched with a basin of cold water, from head to toe. The King of Lanling slowly lowered his hands, his face pale as he stared at her, and after a while, he said in a low voice: "Is the fate exhausted? Are these four words decided by you?" He sneered: "Did I say let go?"

  Hearing the anger in his words, Zhang Qi's expression remained calm and collected. She raised her eyes to glance at him, then lowered her head again. Her stunning face showed no joy or anger. "Whatever you say..." She turned around, carelessly plucking a willow branch, swinging it lightly as she spoke: "Remember, you promised me that if your wife ever harmed me once, you would let me return to the Chen Kingdom."

  He did so much for her, yet she still longs to return to her hometown. Doesn't she ever think that with her beauty, where else can she go? What's wrong with staying by his side?

  The King of Lanling's face turned iron-green due to his urgent anger causing him to breathe rapidly.

  Zhang Qi walked forward absent-mindedly, and said quietly as she walked: "Why must the Duke be angry, why must it be like this? It's just a woman with some charm. You don't have to offend the Empress Dowager and the Emperor because of me."

  While speaking, she actually went further away. She clearly knew that he had offended the empress and the emperor for her sake, but she was not moved at all, only feeling coldness!

  Zhang Qi walked to a peach tree by the side of a small stream, where there were over a dozen large and small stones piled up. She sat on her usual stone, staring at the fish swimming back and forth, tilting her head, with the willow branch in her hand swishing back and forth on the water's surface, splashing water droplets everywhere.

  Her expression was very calm, not only calm, but also lazy. As if unaware of his approach, she rubbed her eyes with her hand, and surprisingly, she looked like she wanted to sleep again!

  This heartless and ruthless appearance caused Langling Wang's footsteps to suddenly stop!

  He suddenly turned around and walked away with big strides!

  Seeing Langling Wang leave, Ah Lu rushed over with a bowl of plum blossom soup. She put down the bowl and massaged Zhang Qi's calf while lifting her head to say anxiously: "Ah Qi, why provoke him at this time?" She lowered her voice, "Langling Wang cares about you, these past few days, he hasn't slept..."

  Zhang Qi's eyes drooped wearily as she spoke in a soft voice, "That day, he said in front of the Empress Dowager that he had never thought of marrying me. I knew it was his true intention. In his heart, I am just a concubine who has won his favor with my beauty, not worthy to stand by his side, not worthy of being his legitimate wife, and not worthy of sharing a tomb with him." As she spoke, her voice was desolate and hollow.

  "A'lu quickly argued: "But he cares about you, he really cares about you. Look, this time for your sake, he offended both the Empress and the Emperor."

  She shook her head and said, "This is different. He's actually a strong-willed person, but to survive in the imperial family of the Gao surname, he must also be loyal and honest. What did his loyalty and honesty get him? He repeatedly declared that he would protect his beloved concubine with his life, but she was taken away from him in an instant. This is a humiliation and mockery of him! If he doesn't strike back fiercely, his dignity will be completely lost. Even if he goes to the battlefield, no soldier will look up to him, let alone let him command the army and conquer the four directions! You should know that those hot-blooded men despise most the kind of man who can't even protect his own wife and children. Therefore, while other things may be tolerable, this step, Gao Zhang Gong absolutely cannot take, absolutely cannot tolerate!"

  She paused for a while, took a deep breath and continued: “... Ah Lu, I'm tired, and now I've lost my body. I won't fight back. Nor do I want to fight back. If he can let me go, we'll return to our hometown. If he refuses to let go, I fear it will drag you down.”

  She bent down, gently stroking Ah Lu's bright eyebrows and eyes, and whispered: "You must not bear a grudge against Ah Mo because of me. If anything happens to me, you go find him immediately, he will take care of you for my sake."

  She pulled the corner of her mouth and continued, "Amo's people can be flexible. When Qi Chen is pleased or displeased, he dares to run to Zhou's place. You follow him. Your life should be safe."

  Ah Lu suddenly realized, it turned out that Ah Gui had lost all hope for her future with Lang Ling Wang from the bottom of her heart. Thinking of this, Ah Lu felt a sharp pain and burst into loud sobs.

  She hugged Zhang Qi's legs and sobbed: "No, don't go, Ah Qi, let's leave together, return to Chen Di together."

  "Alright, let's go together and return to Chen Di." Having only said a few words, Zhang Qi felt that endless fatigue again. It wasn't just fatigue, her lower abdomen was also aching dully.

  Zhang Qi felt uneasy and hurriedly covered her stomach, supporting Ah Lu who was motionless.

  It's only been a day, and this is already the third time. Ah Lu quickly stabilized Zhang Qi, wiping away tears and speaking softly: "Ah Qi don't be afraid, the child is fine, just shaken by the carriage."

  "After a while, Zhang Qi finally replied wearily: 'I know.'"

  After a while, A Lu looked around cautiously and asked, "Does the king suspect anything?"

  Zhang Qi nodded and said, "I guess I won't be able to hide it for a few more days. Now he just thinks I'm crazy." After a moment of silence, she lowered her head and said bitterly, "I want to tell him that I've lost my body, but I don't dare... Ah Lu, at this point, I still have things I don't dare do!" She said in a low voice, "In two days, Ah Lu, you come with me to pray to the Buddha. The Buddha says that all living beings are suffering, and those who believe can be free from the burden of reincarnation. I want to try believing."

  "Alright, Ah Kui, don't talk."

  When Zhang Gui was recuperating, the entire Ye City can be said to have turned upside down.

  Lanling King has gone too far this time, he is near the Imperial Guard Camp, killing the eunuchs and palace maids sent by the Empress Dowager to escort Zhang Qi. A few deaths are nothing, but his actions are a slap in the face of the Empress Dowager! He's using those bloody heads as a warning to the Empress Dowager!

  Moreover, he led the three hundred black armored guards to rush into the city, fearing that people would not know that he had taken back his woman! This kind of arrogance and domineering attitude did not give any face to the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, not only making the two superiors extremely angry, but also making the imperial relatives who used to look down on him with disdain, could not help but scold him as a "madman!" It was not until now that they finally believed that Gao Zhang Gong would risk his life for that woman. For a moment, even those who still had some lingering thoughts, also put their minds at rest.

  When the King of Lanling was busy dealing with the changes inside and outside the palace, a horse-drawn carriage drove into the Wangfu. Under the escort of more than a dozen maids, Zheng You, dressed in finery and exuding an intimidating aura, walked towards Zhang Qi.

  She walked slowly to Zhang Yi's side, who was lying on his side, and looked down at him with a condescending gaze. Perhaps it was this repeated torment that finally made her lose her patience. At this moment, Zheng Yu was no longer the gentle and soft expression she had before.

  She stared at Zhang Qi for a while, seeing that she seemed to be asleep but not really asleep, and was completely ignoring her. Zheng Yu said gently: "Zhang Shi, I heard that on that day, you were rescued from the red building by someone? When that person rescued you, you were naked, and there were several men lying in bed without clothes... Is this true?" The tone was arrogant, almost interrogating.

  Zhang Qi opened her eyes and lifted her head.

  She met Zheng Yu with a stylish and arrogant attitude, with a face full of disgust and disdain.

  Quietly looking at Zheng Yu, Zhang Qi suddenly smiled. She picked up the tea beside her and slowly took a sip. "Who are you? What is your relationship with Gao Changgong? What is your relationship with me, Zhang Shi Qi? Zheng Shi Yu, what is your identity? What qualifications do you have to question me?"

  Zhang Qi's counter-question came one after another, with a calm tone but each sentence was pressing.

  Moreover, Zhang Yi's expression was serene and gentle, her demeanor and bearing were even more ethereal and otherworldly. With such ease and such leisure, had she ever shown the slightest hint of guilt?

  Zheng Yu was both puzzled and embarrassed, and for a moment he was speechless.
