Chapter 18

There were many more guards in the arena, surrounding Su Su and the second prince. Su Se, who had lost his sword, was as pale as paper, like a butterfly in the rain, unable to move its wings, and could only flap about by itself, she was pale The corner of her mouth pulled upwards, and in the end, her eyes still looked at Xiao Yiran.

She stretched out her hand to him, and the third prince had already rushed forward, while the second prince took the sword out of his hand, covered the wound and retreated.Xiao Zhongheng hugged the fallen Su Se, but wept uncontrollably.

Su Se's hand was stretched out, as if trying to grab something, trembling.Xiao Yiran watched quietly, but had no intention of stepping forward to hold it.

In the end, Su Se's hand hangs down, eyes are not closed, just staring at Xiao Yiran in a daze.

"No—" Xiao Zhongheng roared.

"My lord, the assassin must be arrested and brought to justice, please..." A guard stepped forward.

"Get out! Get out of here!" Xiao Zhongheng picked up Su Se and staggered out, "Aren't you willing to look at me again? You hate me so much..." Xiao Zhongheng murmured What.

Bingyu suddenly burst into tears.

Xiao Yiran saw it, sighed softly, and raised his hand to wipe away her tears.

"Fifth brother, my little beauty was frightened, this king lost interest, so I left first." Xiao Yiran walked out without raising his head, hugged Bingyu.

"Sixth Brother!" Xiao Ren exclaimed.

Xiao Yiran stopped and turned around, "What's the matter? Fifth brother? Is there anything else I need to ask? I still need this king to be a witness? There are too many people present, so it doesn't matter if I'm one less."

Xiao Ren stared at Xiao Yiran for a while.

"It's okay, sixth brother, let's go." He raised the corners of his mouth and smiled unnaturally.

"Then I will take my leave too. I will convey His Highness's kindness to Father." Xiao Su also stood up.

Xiao Min's face was full of displeasure, but seeing the second prince shook his head at him, he had no choice but to give up.

"The little lord, today is really a disappointment, and I will definitely make up for it another day." Xiao Ren made a bow, got up and sent him off respectfully.

As a result, all the people at the table asked to go home, so Xiao Min had no choice but to say goodbye one by one with an apologetic smile.

The second prince was helped down to recuperate.

Finally back to Chu Palace, Bingyu breathed a sigh of relief.For some reason, she now feels at ease.It seems that every time I go home, I feel stable and safe.Although it was not the first time I saw blood today, I still felt uncomfortable in my heart, as if I was going to spit it out.

"How do you feel, why don't I ask Xiao He to make some ginger soup for you." Xiao Yiran saw her discomfort.

"En," Bingyu nodded, "Today, Su Se actually..." She was always surprised, such a stunning woman is willing to die, how much is she for love, how much is it for a task?
"She is a woman with a hard life." Xiao Yiran was very calm, as if talking about someone who had nothing to do with him, "She was my killer."

"She is Huaying." Bingyu continued.

"You know?" Xiao Yiran was a little surprised.

"I saw the petals on her forehead." Bingyu recalled that when she died, the hair covering her forehead was parted, and the peony petals between her foreheads were faintly visible.According to legend, this is the mark of the killer Huaying. Six years ago, Huaying, a killer who killed people without blood, appeared in the rivers and lakes.There is no reason for her to kill people, neither ordinary people nor high-ranking officials were spared.Unfortunately, it disappeared for unknown reasons.

"The people she killed were all ordered by you?"

"Yes," Xiao Yiran did not intend to hide it from her, "She was originally a little girl I redeemed from a brothel, and then she worked hard for me. As a result, during a mission, I was hit by the other party's ecstasy overnight, and it happened that my third brother and I were Drinking in other courtyards. One of them takes traditional Chinese medicine and the other is drunk, so..."

"You mean..." Bingyu was taken aback, she didn't expect that there would be such a sex scene, and she thought, "No, shouldn't poison be poisoned? How come there is an aphrodisiac."

"Hehe, if it's poison, why can't she recognize it? Besides, if that night of ecstasy is not shared with someone... within an hour, your life will be lost. How is this different from poison?"

My dear, someone is so insidious.

"Then there is no other way?"

"Yes, bloodletting. But when the bloodletting is done, someone has to tap acupuncture points to stop the bleeding, so luck can dredge the meridians. But when I know, they have already..."

"But I think your third brother seems to like her very much." Bingyu recalled the scene just now.

"Yes, he has always liked her."

"What about his princess?"

"Oh, Miss Yue Ling, you must know." Xiao Yiran sneered.

It's really miserable for him to find such a bad eighth wife.Bingyu shrunk her neck, besides the prominent family background of the Yue family, Bingyu couldn't think of anything she could show off.But just because of this, Yue Lingshan became so proud that she immediately became the number one shrew in the capital.

"It's a good thing that Huaying died, otherwise she would be tortured to death by that woman." Bingyu commented.It seems that death is sometimes not necessarily a bad thing.

"Hehe, I didn't expect you to think so." Xiao Yiran smiled.

"By the way, doesn't he still have a concubine's room?"

"Well, I'm dying, I heard."

No wonder no wonder.Bingyu nodded.

"They don't seem to be married, right?" Bingyu suddenly remembered.

Xiao Yiran nodded.

"That plain color..." Bingyu hesitated for a moment.

"Her real name is neither Suse nor Huaying, her name is Qiutong, and she was originally a girl in my house." Xiao Yiran said indifferently, "Later, she became my subordinate again. In fact, she snatched the letter and gave it to Xingchen. At that time, Fifth Brother probably expected that she would snatch it, but he didn't expect to lose it when he followed him, and now he wants to find out, but unexpectedly today Su Se died and didn't open his mouth." Xiao Yiran sneered.

"Pity her life..." Bingyu murmured alone, "I'm afraid that until she dies..."

"Bingyu, there are too many poor people in this world, you can't sympathize with them, don't be too sad."

Bingyu turned to look at him, his face was calm, she suddenly felt extremely distressed.

"What is your heart made of? She could be a little girl for the rest of her life, but she has become a killer, and she will pay her back until she dies..." Bingyu stopped talking, not knowing whether she should say the following words.

"Even so, it can't all be blamed on me! At the beginning, I promised her to the third brother, but she ran away by herself. Today I know that she is Su Se!"

Bingyu stared at him blankly, perhaps this kind of evil fate was destined to be a tragedy from the very beginning.

Looking at each other for a long time, Xiao Yiran sighed softly.

"Unfortunately, she doesn't understand... People from outside the cloud tell about things outside the cloud, talk and listen in dreams. No matter how beautiful the dream is, it will end up as an illusion, and cherishing the present is the truth."

After speaking, his figure gradually disappeared into the night.

Bingyu turned around suddenly, he knew it!He knows it all!Qiutong, after all, he still knows about your deep affection.
