Qin Canglan fell into a pool of blood in a daze, with shock still lingering in his eyes.

Guo Huan glanced at him indifferently, took out a handkerchief to wipe the blood on his hands, and left expressionlessly.

Lightning suddenly flashed across the sky, thunder roared, black clouds were torn apart, and heavy rain poured down.

Qin Canglan looked at the big raindrops, his eyes becoming distracted little by little.

Huayin...

I'm here to find you...

"Look! There's someone over there!"

"Who is it?"

"Go over and take a look!"

Several passing people rushed over in the rain.

"Someone was killed!"

"He is wearing armor. Is he a military commander of the imperial court?"

"With so much blood... can we still save him? Send him to a hospital as soon as possible!"

"It's too late, I'm out of breath..."

In the darkness, a man in blue wearing a bamboo hat walked over.

"What happened?" he asked a young man who passed by him.

The young man said: "Someone was killed over there! It seems to be a military commander of the imperial court! Alas, these days, even the capital has become a lawless place..."

Qin Tianjian.

Sikong Yun stood on the observatory in the attic, looking at the stormy capital.

"Master."

A disciple came over with an umbrella and held it above his head: "It's raining heavily, can you go in?"

Sikong Yun put his hands behind his back, looked at the dark rainstorm, and murmured: "The star's light... is completely gone."

The disciple seemed to understand: "Master, are you stargazing? It's raining, so of course you can't see the stars."

Sikong Yun said in a daze: "It's not the rain that makes the stars fall. It's the stars that fall that makes the heaven and the earth mourn."

"Lord Jianzheng! Lord Jianzheng! Something big has happened!"

The chief secretary of the Qintian Prison climbed up to the seven-story tower in one breath and was out of breath. "The old Lord Protector... has been assassinated!"

Sikong Yun closed his eyes in pain.

After Wei Ting and Su Xiaoxiao learned that Guo Huan had escaped, they immediately got on their horses and rushed towards the Prime Minister's Mansion.

They galloped all the way in the heavy rain.

"Shortcut!" Wei Ting said.

Su Xiaoxiao nodded!

Wei Ting tightened the reins and made a sharp turn, heading into the alley on the right.

Su Xiaoxiao followed closely.

If it weren't for the rigorous training during this period, most people would really not be able to control the speed in the heavy rain.

With his amazing five senses, Wei Ting led Su Xiaoxiao through the violent storm.

Finally, they arrived at the alley a hundred steps east of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

This place has already been surrounded by officials from Jingzhao Prefecture and people who are joining in the fun.

The two dismounted their horses and squeezed into the crowd with cold expressions.

"What are you doing? Stop crowding! Stand back!" an officer shouted.

Su Xiaoxiao pushed him away and walked towards Qin Canglan.

"What are you doing!"

The official was about to arrest Su Xiaoxiao, and Wei Ting showed the Wu'an Mansion's token: "Wei Ting."

The officer's expression changed, and he quickly bowed and saluted: "Master Wei!"

Wei Ting also walked over.

Qin Canglan was seriously injured and no one dared to move him easily. A passing doctor knelt in the rain to check Qin Canglan's injury.

He shook his head regretfully: "It can't be saved. Let's prepare for the aftermath."

"Get out of the way." Su Xiaodao.

The doctor turned his head and saw a little girl who was soaked in the rain. He said earnestly: "Girl, don't cause trouble and go home quickly."

Su Xiaoxiao: "I said, get out of the way!"

The doctor and the official on the side were about to scold her, but they were shocked by the sudden murderous look in her eyes. Those eyes seemed not to belong to a living person, and just looking at them made people shudder.

The doctor and the officials stood aside blankly.

Su Xiaoxiao knelt down.

Wei Ting took the umbrella from the official's hand and held it above her and Qin Canglan's heads.

At the same time, his eyes also fell on the dagger on Qin Canglan's chest.

"It's Guo Huan..."

This is Guo Huan's dagger.

It was the one given to Guo Huan by his sixth brother on his seventeenth birthday!

Guo Huan is a naked provocation.

He was telling Wei Ting and Su Xiaoxiao: Look, I killed Qin Canglan!

At this point, everything is clear.

Chen Duozhu and Guo Huan had different tasks. Chen Duozhu's was to assassinate Emperor Jingxuan, and Guo Huan's was to assassinate Qin Canglan.

Guo Huan has been detained in a separate hospital for the past few days. During this period, it is impossible for him to have contact with the White Lotus Sect. It can be inferred that he had received the task of assassinating Qin Canglan before he was captured.

Master Chen was unaware of Guo Huan's mission, but Guo Huan must have known about Master Chen.

Otherwise, he would not have been able to calculate the timing so accurately.

If the White Lotus Sect can find Guo Huan, it means that Su Li has revealed his secret.

How did Su Li reveal her secret? Wei Ting had a bold guess in his mind.

In addition, Wei Ting still had a bigger doubt in his mind - how did the people from the White Lotus Sect find that other courtyard?

In just a moment, countless thoughts flashed through Wei Ting's mind.

Su Xiaoxiao felt Qin Canglan's pulse, then lay on Qin Canglan's heart to listen to his heartbeat.

The pulse is gone and the heartbeat cannot be heard...

"I want to draw the knife for him. I need a clean room."

The nearest residence is the Prime Minister's Mansion, and because Mrs. Guo has been ill all year round, the Prime Minister's Mansion has a local doctor who lives there, and medicinal materials are also convenient.

However, it is absolutely impossible for them to take Qin Canglan to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Wei Ting frowned: "I know a place, Qin Tian Jian!"

…

"Lord Sikong! They are right outside the door. Do you want to let them in?"

asked the chief clerk.

Sikong Yun said: "Let go."

The chief registrar hesitated and said: "Your Excellency... I understand that you have a good personal relationship with the old Protector. However, because of your special status, His Majesty is very taboo about your dealings with important officials in the court. Furthermore, I heard that the old Protector is not angry.

Already..."

Sikong Yun looked at the pouring rain and said sternly: "Open the door, I will go see the general on his last journey."

The heavy black iron gate was opened by eight masters, and Wei Ting walked in with Qin Canglan in his arms.

He solemnly said: "Go prepare a clean room!"

Everyone turned back to look at Sikong Yun after the rain.

Sikong Yun nodded: "Do as Master Wei said."

"Let me lead the way!" said the disciple, "Master Wei, please follow me!"

Behind Wei Ting was an unfamiliar chubby girl, so no one paid much attention.

Just because he was with Wei Ting, he let her in with him.
