Gu Han’s stubborn attitude made Pei Qian even more interested. As if he had discovered a new toy, he began to harass him every day, which enraged Gu Han.

However, his body couldn’t exert any strength at all. Not to mention resisting, he didn’t even have the strength to bite his tongue and commit suicide.

Finally, Pei Qian exhausted the last bit of Gu Han’s arrogance by harassing him every day. When Lin Suisui and Lu Ze came over to see him again, Gu Han’s appearance shocked Lin Suisui.

This haggard man with a drooping beard was actually Gu Han?

What had Pei Qian done to him?

“Actually, it’s nothing. I just got someone to tell him about the stupid things he did every day.” Pei Qian saw the confusion in Lin Suisui’s eyes and explained with a smile.

Gu Han suddenly looked up and glared at Pei Qian. However, Pei Qian didn’t care. Pei Qian sighed and said to him very gently, “Am I wrong?”

The rage in Gu Han’s eyes instantly dissipated because of Pei Qian’s words.

That’s right. If not for the fact that he had always been headstrong and refused to listen to others’ advice, he wouldn’t have come to this point. Actually, someone around him had reminded him long ago that his eldest brother was rebellious, but he was unwilling to believe it.

He felt that he had always had a good relationship with his eldest brother, but… “Gu Han, you didn’t come here just to reflect on your mistakes, right?” Lu Ze held Lin Suisui’s hand and sat down at the side before saying calmly, “What do you want to do?”

“I want you to help me return to the Imperial Court and save my father.” Gu Han fell silent for a long time before saying in a hoarse voice, “I still have some supporters left among the northern barbarians, but with my eldest brother’s strength, we probably won’t be able to last long.

If something really happens to my father, he will unify the entire Imperial Court and join forces with the Siamese in the south to invade the empire.

“Your empire doesn’t want another war at the border, right?”

“But why should we help you?” Lu Ze began to brew tea with the tea set on the table. As he ground the tea powder, he asked Gu Han without looking up, “First of all, in order to save your father, we have to go deep into the northern barbarian territory.

It was definitely impossible for the entire army to go, so only a small number of elites could go.

What if this is your plan to lure us in? Wouldn’t we be sitting ducks?

Do you think I’m stupid enough to take such a risk?”

Gu Han fell silent.

He knew that his request was indeed too much. From another perspective, not to mention helping, it would probably be good enough if they didn’t kick him when he was down.

However, for some reason, when he was attacked by his brother in the Imperial Court, they were the first people he thought of.

Gu Han had always known his limits. He wasn’t a smart person, but perhaps because he had grown up in a wolf pack, he had always had an intuition that others didn’t.

His intuition had saved him from countless dangers. This time, he chose to believe his intuition without hesitation.

“How can I make you guys believe me?” Gu Han looked up at Lu Ze and asked very seriously.

“Take this.” As Lu Ze spoke, he gestured for Pei Qian to take out the porcelain bottle he had prepared long ago and place it on the table beside Gu Han.

Without even asking what was inside, Gu Han reached out and took the porcelain bottle without hesitation. Then, he swallowed the pill inside.

Looking at Gu Han’s straightforward demeanor, Pei Qian, who was sitting at the side, couldn’t help but be surprised. He sized up Gu Han for a long time before saying, “Aren’t you going to ask what’s in this bottle?”

“It doesn’t matter. After all, I only have a chance to cooperate with you guys after eating it, right?” Gu Han’s gaze swept across Lin Suisui calmly before he continued, “Besides, who in the northern region doesn’t know about Your Highness’ medical skills?”

“It’s not poison. It’s Gu,” Lin Suisui said. Although Gu Han didn’t ask directly, she didn’t intend to hide it from him. “If you really want to cooperate, that’s fine. But if you have any evil ideas, what awaits you is even more suffering.” “I know what you want to say. You’re all alone, so if you can lure my husband into a trap, it’ll be a win.” Without waiting for Gu Han to speak, Lin Suisui continued, “But we’re not fools. We all have backup plans.”

“That’s right. I know your abilities too well.” Gu Han snorted. Without Lin Suisui’s reminder, he had almost fallen into the empire’s trap.

He had already captured that woman and was just one step away from taking her across the border!

“How do you want us to cooperate?” Lu Ze looked at Gu Han as he reached out and patted the back of Lin Suisui’s hand gently to comfort her. Then, he said, “There has never been free lunch in this world, not to mention that we’ve been enemies for many years.”

“Although my brother seems to be in control of the Imperial Court now, that’s only on the surface! As long as we can save my father now, all his lies and deception will be exposed!”

Gu Han said to Lu Ze. He had no intention of hiding anything from him.

However, before Gu Han could finish speaking, he heard two chuckles from the other side. One was from Pei Qian, and the other was from Lin Suisui, who was shielded by Lu Ze. He looked at Lu Ze angrily, but realized that Lu Ze couldn’t hide the smile on his face either. He couldn’t help but feel embarrassed and asked, “What are you guys laughing at?”

“I’m laughing at you for being too naive.” Lu Ze coughed softly and suppressed his laughter. Then, he looked at Gu Han as he said word by word, “I thought that after this chaos, you would be able to see things more clearly, but I didn’t expect you to still be so naive.”

“Am I wrong?” Gu Han’s expression was tense. Although he was a little angry, he was also puzzled.

His father wasn’t dead yet, so he was naturally the ruler of the northern barbarians! If he pointed out that his brother was treasonous, could his brother continue to deceive the entire northern barbarian Imperial Court like now?
