Quick Transmigration System: Host, Please Calm Down

“I am not hiding from Your Majesty.” Zhou Yang’s voice was somewhat distant, which annoyed Pan Yang.

"Because I killed someone today?" Pan Yang pondered for a long time before slowly speaking, his voice tinged with displeasure: "Or because I left the palace?"

Zhou Yang paused for two seconds upon hearing Pan Yang's tone. This seemed to be the first time he remembered Pan Yang being unhappy. He opened his mouth and said, "Your Majesty, we are ultimately just enemies."

Putting aside the present, if the court really falls into chaos in the future, only one person can survive and only one person can become emperor. The current situation is only temporary. Huan Yang's behavior today made him realize that Huan Yang is not simple.

He was conflicted; it would be impossible for him not to be tempted, especially since it was because of him that Fan Yang killed the assassin today.

However, he couldn't guarantee that this person, knowing... wouldn't dislike him.

Hearing his words, Pan Yang was speechless, but said firmly, "Zhou Yang, we will never be enemies. As long as you trust me, you don't need to worry about anything."

"..." Zhou Yang looked at him, but ultimately said nothing.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Pan Yang frowned, stood up from the chair, walked to the soft couch not far away and lay down. The space beside Zhou Yang became larger, but he felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

The two barely communicated for the next few days. Although they were in the same space, neither spoke to the other when they saw each other.

It made Peach Heart feel uncomfortable; it would be better if the two of them were together every day.

Gao Shen was on tenterhooks for several days after the sudden fire, but nothing else happened, so he treated it as an accident.

He had seen the stalemate between Pan Yang and Zhou Yang, and was just waiting for the right opportunity to overthrow the Emperor, then naturally assist Pan Yang, and continue to devour the entire dynasty step by step!

Of course, this opportunity came very quickly.

At the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.

Pan Yang sat in the highest position, Zhou Yang sat to his left, and the other adults were arranged below him in order.

After a few simple pleasantries, they began to invite dancers to entertain them.

Elegant music filled the air, and several young women in dance dresses danced gracefully, but Pan Yang had no interest in appreciating their dances.

Instead, he kept looking at Zhou Yang, his gaze undisguised. Zhou Yang naturally noticed this and looked up to meet Pan Yang's eyes. Suddenly, he felt his heart skip a beat.

Pan Yang's gaze seemed to devour him, making him somewhat flustered, even afraid to look at the man. Zhou Yang awkwardly picked up the wine glass on the table and drank it down in one gulp.

Tao Xin stood beside Fan Yang, serving him. Seeing the interaction between the two, she felt a real headache and whispered, "Why doesn't Your Majesty take back the power? Then, even if you want to keep His Highness by your side, no one will dare to question it."

Pan Yang looked at Tao Xin with some surprise. You're a true confidant! But getting back the power is such a hassle. You'll have to attend court every morning to handle state affairs.

Thinking of this, Pan Yang shook his head, and Tao Xin had no choice but to shut up and stop talking.

However, the next second, the dancer who was still dancing gracefully suddenly revealed a dagger in her hand and stabbed straight at Fan Yang.

Upon seeing this, Zhou Yang suddenly stood up, but Tao Xin was closer to Pan Yang and took the lead in blocking Pan Yang's path. Just as Tao Xin closed her eyes and waited for the knife to stab her,

The dancer suddenly flew out. Pan Yang shook the Xiaoyao sword in his hand and rolled his eyes as if looking down on the dancer. Don't assassins have any originality these days?

Seeing this, the dancer took advantage of the guards coming over, picked up a dagger, and slit her throat without hesitation.

Upon seeing this, the soldier quickly examined the body and then found a token. He was startled when he saw the token and was about to secretly hide it when Gao Shen shouted.

"What are you hiding?" His voice was loud, immediately attracting everyone's attention.

The guard tremblingly took out the token, glanced at Zhou Yang, and gritted his teeth, saying, "I found it on the assassin." He then showed the token.

Gao Shen picked up the token, examined it carefully, and then glared angrily at Zhou Yang: "Lord Zhou, you're truly capable! You actually dared to send someone to assassinate His Majesty! Guards! Seize Lord Zhou!"

"Who dares!" Pan Yang spoke first. He walked to Zhou Yang's side and patted him on the shoulder reassuringly. Then he slowly walked down and took the token from Gao Shen's hand.

"How do you know it was Zhou Yang who did it?"

Gao Shen found this amusing, as if he looked down on Pan Yang, but he still maintained a respectful demeanor: "Your Majesty will know upon closer inspection that the token clearly says 'Boat,' and the pattern on it suggests that Lord Zhou should also have a similar token."

“Then according to your wishes…” Pan Yang rolled his eyes, crossed out the character “舟” on it with the Xiaoyao sword, engraved a “高” instead, and continued, “This token is now yours.”

"Guards! Prime Minister Gao has committed an unforgivable crime of assassinating the Emperor!" Pan Yang shouted before Gao Shen could react.

Everyone was dumbfounded. His Majesty was clearly protecting Zhou Yang. How foolish of him!

Gao Shen gritted his teeth at Ban Yang's reaction: "Your Majesty is quite the joker. This token is clearly Zhou Yang's. All the ministers present have seen it. Your Majesty, please don't be confused."

Upon hearing this, Pan Yang nodded, seemingly finding it to be true.

Zhou Yang's gaze fell on Pan Yang. He had never expected Gao Shen to go so far as to throw caution to the wind. He had thought this man could remain calm, but he hadn't expected him to seize the opportunity and bite back immediately.

Just when Gao Shen thought that Pan Yang had finally stopped protecting Zhou Yang, Pan Yang threw the token on the ground and secretly used his magic to crush it with one stomp.

Then, looking at Gao Shen with a blank expression, he asked, "What token? I can't see it. This is strange. Could it be that Lord Gao is trying to frame Zhou Yang?"

Seeing this, the other ministers were speechless. How could they play like this? Are you His Majesty, so you can do whatever you want?

Seeing this, Gao Shen stopped pretending and sneered, "It seems His Majesty's intelligence hasn't recovered much. He should rest and recuperate. Guards! Seize the traitor Zhou Yang immediately! Please ask His Majesty to go back and rest!"

As soon as Gao Shen finished speaking, the soldiers hidden in the shadows swarmed over, and just as he was feeling smug, they surrounded him.

He was completely stunned, looking incredulously at the minister who was also a member of his party.

But the minister noticed his gaze, instantly looked away, and pretended to look at the roof.

It was obvious without even thinking that I had been betrayed.

Zhou Yang was bewildered by what he saw. He had also kept a backup plan for himself, but he hadn't expected Gao Shen to lose in such a way.
