Yang Yuhuan did not answer immediately, but walked slowly towards the door, then stood leaning against the door, looking at the moonlight in a daze.

It was not until a long time later that he spoke again.

But she still did not answer the question, but asked Gao Lishi again, saying: "If you were Zhang Jiuling in the court, and your biggest dream in your life was the revival of the Tang Dynasty, then one day you suddenly saw a young man among the Han people. Although this young man had not yet shown his courage on the battlefield, he pulled the Xuanyuan Bow, the best in the ages, what would you do?"

Gao Lishi thoughtfully and said, "The old prime minister Zhang Jiuling has been worried about the rebellion of the feudal states. He writes letters almost every year to advise His Majesty not to value the Hu people."

As he said that, he said, "So if the old slave is Zhang Jiuling, when I see young heroes appear among the Han people, then the old slave will inevitably ignite a huge hope in his heart. Even if he sacrifices his life, he will protect this young man to grow up."

Yang Yuhuan nodded and said, "This is Guo Ziyi's first backstage."

Gao Lishi hesitated and frowned and said, "But there is not only one prime minister Zhang Jiuling in the court, but another prime minister also holds great power. Moreover, the prime minister's political views are contrary to Zhang Jiuling. He has always advocated that the court should vigorously use the Hu people.

The old eunuch suddenly stopped when he said this, looked at Yang Yuhuan carefully, and then for some reason, suddenly his voice was lowered and he whispered: "In addition, the old slave also learned something privately. Li Linfu seemed to have always wanted Guo Ziyi to die. He had previously ordered Guo Ziyi to be a death row prisoner..."

Yang Yuhuan was still standing against the door, as if he was looking at the moon again.

Gao Lishi coughed lightly and tentatively said carefully: "It is said... it is said... it is said... it is said... it is said that the Empress asked the old slave to offend him. It is said that Guo Ziyi was beaten to death because of you."

Yang Yuhuan seemed to have not heard of it, just looked up at the bright moon in the sky.

Gao Lishi coughed lightly again and continued to test, saying, "That day, Empress, you agreed to enter the palace. Before the palace gate, you looked back and looked at the long street. It was at that time that Guo Ziyi said the wrong thing, but was directly ordered by Li Linfu to be sent to the death row."

"Empress, you should understand that you are the person Li Linfu recommended to Your Majesty. This person does almost everything to please Your Majesty. The reason why he wanted Guo Ziyi to die was nothing more than worrying about what the boy said...is true."

Yang Yuhuan finally withdrew his gaze looking up at the moonlight and turned to look at Gao Lishi with a tentative look on his face.

After a moment, he smiled with his face, as if the moonlit night was blooming, and the brilliance was dazzling in an instant.

Gao Lishi quickly lowered his head, not daring to look at this beauty directly.

Yang Yuhuan continued to smile, but suddenly asked, "Are you testing me for the emperor? Or are you curious?"

Gao Lishi touched the ground with his head and said, "The Empress is the one who atones for her sins. No one dares to report to His Majesty the words Guo Ziyi said on the long street."

"Is that true?" Yang Yuhuan smiled again.

Suddenly he asked again: "Then can you tell me what Guo Ziyi said?"

Gao Lishi only felt his body shaking, as if thunder sounded in his ears, and huge waves emerged in his heart. He subconsciously looked up at Yang Yuhuan.

He finally confirmed that Yang Yuhuan actually had something to do with Guo Ziyi.

But the old eunuch was so smart that he calmed down his horror in just one moment. He lowered his head again and said cautiously: "Report to Empress, you shouldn't ask about this."

"What if I have to ask?"

"Then, because I am too old, I have already started to be a little confused. I often talk to myself and say something I will forget as soon as I finished saying it... Immortal, please listen, and I will start to be confused and nonsense again: That day, when Guo Ziyi saw you before the palace gate, he smiled very despicable and said that you had been slept by him."

"Oh, what happened to me just now? As expected, people are prone to being confused when they are old. I forgot what I have said."

"Empress, you probably didn't hear what Lao Nu said just now."

He is truly an old eunuch who can stand in the palace.

Yang Yuhuan was obviously an extremely intelligent woman, so how could he not hear Gao Lishi's hint, and nodded and said, "I owe you a favor for this matter."

Gao Lishi hurriedly saluted and said with a respectful look: "The old slave is just a eunuch, but he can get the favor of the empress. This is the blessing that his ancestors have burned Gao Xiang and only cultivated in life."

After saying the compliment, he revealed his true intention and whispered: "Empress, listen to my advice. In this life, the most important thing is the future. Maybe a girl once had a long spring, but that was a distant past. When it should be forgotten, you have to forget it in time."

As he said, his tone became softer and he said in a whisper, "You are now a man in the palace and are destined to be unable to get out of this life. Although Your Majesty is old and cannot do sexual intercourse since two years ago. However, Your Majesty is Your Majesty after all, and you are Your Majesty's nominal concubine."

Unfortunately, Yang Yuhuan seemed to have not cared about this language, but instead smiled and asked lightly: "Is there any more? Keep persuading."

Gao Lishi sighed helplessly, and indeed continued to persuade him, saying, "There are countless women in this world, but how many people can enter the palace? Especially if you are not just entering the palace, you are the only one who can make His Majesty bow down."

"For example, you said yesterday that you were in a bad mood, so Your Majesty stood at the door and waited for two hours. In the end, you couldn't hear the sound of you letting him in. Your Majesty not only wasn't angry, but left with a smile!"

"Empress, Your Majesty really treats you like a fairy. Please don't act willfully and recklessly. Just forget what happened before."

This time Yang Yuhuan seemed to have listened to the persuasion.

However, it seemed that I didn't listen to even a word.

She just slowly put down the flowers in her hand, then leaned against the door for the second time and looked at the moonlight. She suddenly smiled and said softly: "You just asked me who are the three backers of Guo Ziyi. The first one I have told you, is Zhang Jiuling, the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty. What about the second one? Why don't you guess..."

Gao Lishi sighed helplessly and said, "If I guess, it should be the Empress."

Yang Yuhuan giggled, as naughty as a little girl, and said, "I guessed it right, but unfortunately I didn't give it to you."

Halfway through laughter, he suddenly turned around, and the smile on his face disappeared instantly, turning into a cold color. He looked at Gao Lishi and said, "If this matter is leaked, you Gao Lishi will be my mortal enemy of Yang Yuhuan. Since you are mortal enemy, it must be a life-and-death struggle. Gao Lishi, you have to think about it. If you don't have the confidence to kill me, then you have to worry that I will kill you."

Gao Lishi knelt on the ground from beginning to end. Hearing this, he stretched out his finger and pointed at his knees, saying, "As the first eunuch of the palace, I chose to kneel down and talk to a girl. However, when I face other concubines, I often don't even need a decent etiquette."

As he spoke, he looked at Yang Yuhuan sincerely and said in a very respectful tone: "Grandma, tell me, is this old slave stupid? No, I am very smart. I know you will definitely rise up in the harem and become the hostess of this deep palace courtyard. If you want to kill the old slave, then the old slave will definitely be killed. But if I want to punish you, I am afraid there will never be a chance of success."

The dialogue between smart people is so straightforward.

Gao Lishi's words were not only showing weakness, but also suppressing his wealth.

Yang Yuhuan nodded, and the coldness on her face slowly faded. Suddenly she smiled again, leaned over and looked at Gao Lishi kneeling on the ground, and asked in a low voice: "Since you have chosen to vote, then you should have a letter of vote. It just so happens that I have something to do, so why don't you let you do it?"

Gao Lishi lowered his head, but his tone was even more respectful, saying, "Does the Empress want the old slave to meet that young master Guo? I just don't know if he wants the old slave to hand over the words or save him?"

Yang Yuhuan slowly walked out of the door, looked up at a bright moon in the sky, and said, "Save him? You don't need to save him. He is destined not to die, so he doesn't need to save him. As for the words he has, there is nothing to say between me and him."

Gao Lishi was surprised for the first time and couldn't help but raise his head and said curiously: "So what does the Empress want?"

Yang Yuhuan turned around, her pretty face looked like a fairy under the moonlight. She suddenly smiled deeply and said, "I just asked you to ask him something."

"Ask him something?"

"No, ask questions!"

"You go and ask him, the debt, the ninth level of ice and fire, one hundred yuan per level. Total total of nine hundred, when will he be able to pay this debt?"

Almost no one in the world can understand this passage.

Although Gao Lishi is skillful, he is also confused.

But the old eunuch did not ask questions, but nodded solemnly and said, "Don't worry, I'll leave the palace now. The question you asked just now, I promise to ask Guo Ziyi word for it."

Yang Yuhuan looked up at the moonlight again and said meaningfully: "After asking, you don't need to reply to me. No matter what answer he gives, it has achieved my goal."

Gao Lishi nodded again and got up from the ground and said, "It's not too late, I'll leave the palace now. As you said, I won't come to reply to you after I ask."

Yang Yuhuan didn't comment, but just looked up at the bright moon.

Gao Lishi respectfully bowed and said he was not asking Guo Ziyi's third backstage until the end.

This shrewd old eunuch who has lived in the deep palace all his life, actually guessed Guo Ziyi's third backstage.
