Qin Yu swallowed, and a bold statement was about to escape his lips. But when he met Ming Li's gaze, he swallowed it back down.
The system in the space: ... Host, she's cheating again and again and again and again!
Over there, after all the silver needles on Lan Shi Yi flew out, her eyes rolled back, and she fainted completely into Ming Li's arms.
Ming Li glanced at Qin Yu, who was still standing in place, and said, "Prepare a bathtub and soak her in cold water all night, and she'll be fine."
Qin Yu: ... He glanced at the dense silver needles on the pillar behind him, turned, and walked away quickly.
Soon, a tub of cold water was ready. Ming Li, with no regard for tenderness, lifted Lan Shi Yi from the bed and threw her into the bathtub. Then he clapped his hands and went back to sleep.
The next morning, in the imperial palace.
The palace maids were about to help Qin Zhan Han get dressed and washed, but when they opened the door, they were stunned.
The next second, piercing screams echoed through the emperor's sleeping quarters. The commotion was so great that the Imperial Guards, thinking someone was assassinating His Majesty, rushed over.
But as soon as they entered, they regretted it, wishing they could gouge out their own eyes.
The spacious dragon bed was in disarray. Two naked men lay there, seemingly exhausted and asleep.
Imperial Guards: ...
At this moment, the man on the bed's eyelashes fluttered, and he opened his eyes.
When Qin Zhan Han saw the naked An Xun lying beside him, he felt completely awful.
Feeling the familiar pain somewhere and seeing his own bruised arms, Qin Zhan Han: ...
Killing intent instantly surged in Qin Zhan Han's eyes. Enduring the pain, he got out of bed, drew his sword from its sheath, and thrust it at the oblivious An Xun on the bed. Instantly, blood gushed out, staining a large area of the bedsheets.
An Xun, deceased.
Qin Zhan Han dropped the sword in his hand, turned around, and faced a profoundly awkward scene.
Looking at the Imperial Guards and palace maids filling the room, Qin Zhan Han's killing intent intensified. He didn't even spare a thought for his "brother" and coldly commanded the air, "Leave no one alive."
Before the words were even finished, more than a dozen assassins wearing dark red masks suddenly appeared from nowhere and drew their swords against the palace maids and Imperial Guards. Truly, not a single one was spared, and they all met their end.
The blood of the palace maids and Imperial Guards stained Qin Zhan Han's sleeping quarters.
This scene was clearly witnessed by the blue-clothed woman who had come looking for Qin Zhan Han outside. The woman covered her mouth tightly with her hand, her eyes wide with terror, and then fled as if escaping. wΑp.kanshu伍.net
Yes, that's right!
This woman was Shangguan Ling Xue, who had replaced the original host in entering the palace.
After the assassins finished dealing with everyone, Qin Zhan Han coldly ordered, "Clean it up."
An hour later.
Qin Zhan Han's sleeping quarters were restored to their original state, as if nothing had happened.
After a while, a new batch of palace maids came to help him get dressed and washed.
Qin Zhan Han maintained a cold expression throughout. After putting on his dragon robe, he was helped by the chief eunuch, Liu Gonggong, to attend the morning court.
With every step he took, Qin Zhan Han's face grew paler. By the time he reached the administrative hall, his face was as pale as paper, comparable to Liu Gonggong's heavily powdered face.
...
On the other side, on Mount Junlin.
Xing Zhi Lin looked at the place where he had tied his horse yesterday and felt completely dreadful.
Where was his horse? Where had his beloved horse gone?
Xing Zhi Lin looked at the empty grassland and roared at the top of his lungs, "Where's my Xing Feng! Where did Xing Feng go? Who took my Xing Feng?"
After Xing Zhi Lin had roared for a long time, a young soldier stepped forward and said, "Great General, your horse seemed to have been taken by the Consort Yu yesterday..."
Xing Zhi Lin: ...
ps: Thank you to all the little darlings for the gifts!
