He took out a dagger and wiped it clean with a handkerchief before feeding the scabbard to Qin Yanran. “Bite it.” Qin Yanran bit the scabbard.
Xu Qing looked at her thin gauze shirt and reached out to cut it open layer by layer with scissors.
When her snow-white shoulders were completely exposed to him, he turned his face away.
Qin Yanran grabbed his wrist tightly.
Xu Qing’s eyes flickered. He grabbed the arrow, closed his eyes, and pulled it out!
Qin Yanran fainted from the pain and fell into his arms. Blood stained his clothes and burned his chest.
“Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!”
Xiaohu beat the gong all the way in the carriage.
He had taken the official’s gong again.
Dahu and Erhu swayed with the rhythm. Wei Xiyue was in charge of clapping for the three little packrats.
After cultivating Dao techniques for so many years, this was the first time Sikong Yun felt that he was so close to ascending.
Wasn’t it close? After being tortured two more times, he would directly ascend to immortality.
His bitter days were short-term parole the moment Ling Yun appeared.
Ling Yun had not seen his disciples for two days and was extremely smug, so he went out to look at zithers.
On the way, he was wondering whose ghost was so noisy, so he pushed open the carriage window to take a look. Then, the three little ones saw him.
“Master!”
“Master!”
“Master!”
The three little ones’ eyes lit up.
Ling Yun was horrified. No, no, no, no—
“Goodbye, Mother. Goodbye, Grandpa Sikong! Goodbye, Uncle Coachman!”
The three little ones stood on the street and waved goodbye to Su Xiaoxiao and the others obediently before pulling Wei Xiyue into Ling Yun’s carriage. Ling Yun, who really wanted to die wondered why he had to come out to show
off.
In the carriage,Sikong Yun asked about what happened in the alley. “What happened just now? Were you fighting someone?”
The carriage was gone. There were broken knives on the ground and footprints on the wall… It was obvious that there had been a fight.
“Yes, that’s true,” she said casually.
Seeing that she seemed to be too lazy to mention it, Sikong Yun did not get to the bottom of it.
She looked fine, so the other party should be the one suffering.
“Well…” He hesitated for a moment and asked about the palace in a normal tone.” I heard that the Empress fell ill. ”
“Someone poisoned her,” Su Xiaoxiao said.
Sikong Yun frowned slightly. “Who did it?”
“White Lotus Society,” Su Xiaoxiao said. “They’re here for Princess Jingning.”
The White Lotus Society wanted to shake the fate of the royal family, so they attacked Princess Jingning.
This fate that had protected her and the Empress for many years also welcomed its price at this moment.
Everything was a double-edged sword, and so was this fate.
If one wanted to wear a crown, one had to bear its weight.
Princess Jingning’s fate was that no matter who became the emperor in the future, he would always protect her.
From this point, Sikonz Yun’s plan was verv thorouzh.
However, if there was a rebellion, no matter who wanted to be the emperor, the first person to be killed would be Jingning.
After returning to the Imperial Astronomy Center, Su Xiaoxiao went to Qin Canglan’s room. Su Qi, Su Yu, and Su Li were all there.
They were here to visit Qin Canglan.
Su Xiaoxiao greeted them.
“Why are you back so late? Is the Empress’ poison very serious?” Qin Canglan asked worriedly.
“No, the Empress is fine.” Thinking of what happened on the way, Su Xiaoxiao took out the rusty iron bell. “Grandpa, do you know this?”
Qin Canglan took it with his right arm and looked at it. “I don’t know it.’
“What is it?” Su Li leaned over. ‘What’s so good about a rusty iron bell? Do you like this? You should have said so earlier and asked Big Brother to buy you a few new ones!”
Second Cousin Su Qi said, “This is an iron bell from many years ago. I wore it when I was young. It’s a little smaller than this. I probably threw it away later.”
Third Cousin Su Yu took the iron bell and shook it. “Yours is so rusty that it can’t ring anymore. These iron bells are no longer used. They’re all made of copper now. They’re beautiful and fragile!”
“Why are you suddenly asking about this?” Qin Canglan asked.
The three little fellows’ focus was on the bell itself, but Qin Canglan felt that things were not so simple.
Su Xiaoxiao told him about meeting that mysterious expert.
Qin Canglan asked, “Are you saying that someone tried to assassinate you? You’re not injured, right?”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “I’m not injured. I’ll tell you in detail about the assassination later. I suspect that this expert who secretly helped me twice is the one who applied the blood-staunching elixir for you last time. Do you really not know him? I keep feeling that he knows us.”
Su Xiaoxiao felt that that person seemed to know them.
Qin Canglan pondered and said, “From what you said, his face was ruined… I indeed don’t have such an expert by my side. Don’t look at the three of them, or the Marquis of Zhenbei. Didn’t you say last time that you wanted to ask Wei Ting if he recognized that swallowtail dart? What did Wei Ting say?”
Su Xiaoxiao shook her head. “He said he didn’t know him either.”
Qin Canglan frowned strangely. “Could it be that that person isn’t from the Wei family?”
Su Yu suddenly grabbed the iron bell and said, “Grandaunt, Cousin, look, there’s… a word here!”
At night, it rained heavily in the capital again.
The pedestrians were in a hurry and found a place to hide from the rain.
A man in a thick blue cloak walked against the direction of the crowd. He covered his right arm and walked on the long rain-soaked street.
Every day when it rained, his wound would hurt violently.
This time, it was especially intense.
A carriage came walking through the rain.
“Move aside, move aside, move aside! Aiya!”
The carriage hit and knocked the man down into the rain.
Yuchi Xiu hurriedly tightened the reins and stopped the carriage. “I already told you to move aside! Why are you still bumping up!”
He would never admit that his driving skills were not as good as Fu Su’s.
He jumped out of the carriage and walked over to help the other party up. “Hey, are you alright? Do you want me to send you to the medical center? Your body is so hot! You’re sick!”
Wei Ting lifted the curtain slightly and asked, “What happened?”
The man’s body stiffened. He pushed Yuchi Xiu away and left without looking back!
“Hey! Why are you leaving? Don’t leave! I hit you. I’ll compensate you! What’s going on? Hiss—this person is so strong. He’s so lively even when he’s sick.” Yuchi Xiu rubbed his aching shoulder. “Lord, you scared him away!”
Wei Ting said, “Did I scare him away?”
Yuchi Xiu said, “That’s right. He ran away as soon as you spoke!”
Wei Ting looked ahead suspiciously, but the rain was too heavy and he quickly couldn’t see.
“Forget it. Let’s go.”
Wei Ting lowered the curtain.
How strange. He suddenly got in a bad mood..
