Xiao Qi looked at the fallen man in black.

He closed his eyes, knowing that he could not escape and that he would only die.

Without any hesitation, he wanted to bite the poisonous bag at the bottom of his tongue.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Tingyan stepped forward, pinched his jaw fiercely, and directly removed his jaw.

Xiao Qi began to struggle violently.

No, he doesn't want to be captured alive.

He had not completed his mission. If the emperor knew about it and he was captured alive, his family would also be dead.

Unfortunately, his efforts were of no avail.

Xiao Tingyan didn't give him a chance to resist.

He immediately tapped his acupuncture points and asked the black feather guards to take Xiao Qi down.

Zong Lin lay on the ground and looked at this scene in great shock.

Xiao Tingyan took out the handkerchief from his arms and wiped his palms.

He raised his eyebrows and looked at Zong Lin: "Zong Lin, you lost the bet, and I hope you will admit defeat. I hope you won't break your promise. Otherwise, if you continue to resist, I will definitely make your life worse than death, and you will never be reincarnated... "

Zong Lin's body trembled, he quickly got up from the ground, and crawled down towards Xiao Tingyan in complete submission.

——

Xiao Guozhang hardly slept a wink that night. He had been waiting for news about Xiao Qi.

However, he waited all night until dawn broke in the sky, but did not wait for Xiao Qi's return.

Xiao Guozhang sat there with a cold body, unconsciously in a trance.

Xiao Qi hasn't come back yet.

It seems that the task he assigned to him has failed?

Not only did Xiao Qi not kill Zong Lin, but he also got involved?

Thinking of this possibility, Xiao Guozhang's expression suddenly changed.

Instead of getting better, things became increasingly difficult.

What should he do next?

He was so angry that he threw down everything on the desk.

"Trash, they are all a bunch of trash."

At this moment, the door was pushed open from outside.

The person who walked through the door was extremely tall and had a very handsome face.

He carried a long knife on his waist and walked over with a fierce momentum.

He looked at the things scattered on the ground and couldn't help but frown slightly.

"Father, what happened?"

Xiao Guozhang suddenly came to his senses.

He raised his head in surprise and looked at the person opposite.

He stood up suddenly, rushed to the man with some surprise, and held his arm: "Yu'er? Are you back?"

Xiao Ziyu pursed his lips and smiled softly: "My son completed the task assigned by His Majesty ahead of schedule, so naturally he came back ahead of schedule."

"Father, what happened to you just now? You look so ugly, and you look like you haven't slept all night, but what happened?"

Xiao Ziyu is the youngest son of Xiao Guozhang, and he can be regarded as a son of old age.

He is also the smartest and most capable of so many sons.

When he was only in his twenties, he was highly valued by Liang Wenkang and promoted to the commander of the Imperial Guards, commanding the entire imperial palace of 50,000 Imperial Guards.

Looking at the entire Liang Kingdom, it is rare to have someone like Xiao Ziyu who holds real power at such a young age.

Naturally, Xiao Guozhang felt proud. He also liked to ask Xiao Ziyu for his opinion on anything in the house.

Assuming there are no accidents in the future.

He will make Xiao Ziyu the next head of the Xiao family.

He directly crossed over, and the other sons unscrupulously favored Xiao Ziyu.

However, Xiao Ziyu is indeed up to date. He has great martial arts skills and is effective in doing things. He has been in the limelight in recent years.

Who among the people of Kyoto city would not sigh with emotion that Xiao Guozhang had such an outstanding son as Xiao Ziyu?

Xiao Guozhang seemed to have found his backbone all of a sudden.

He quickly pulled Xiao Ziyu to sit down and immediately told Xiao Ziyu the cause and effect of the incident.

After hearing this, Xiao Ziyu fell into a long silence.

He didn't say much.

I just want to think of ways to cover up the difficult things in front of me.

So, about half a quarter of an hour later, Xiao Ziyu came close to Xiao Guozhang's ear and whispered in a low voice.

Xiao Guozhang's eyes flashed after hearing this.

He was a little excited and held the back of Xiao Ziyu's hand: "Yer, thanks to you being by my side..."

"This plan of yours is really wonderful."

Xiao Ziyu curled his lips and smiled lightly.

Thinking of Zong Lin and Xiao Qi, his face couldn't help but darken.

"Father, haven't you noticed? Since that Luan Yun came, the Xiao family seems to have been broken for many years of peace. Zong Lin and Xiao Qi, your right and left hand respectively, have had troubles one after another."

Xiao Guozhang's expression was reserved.

He quickly shook his head and denied: "Don't think too much, all this has nothing to do with Mr. Luan."

"It's all because of Zong Lin's evil intentions that made things deteriorate to this point. Mr. Luan almost lost his life trying to save me... I was the one who used a trick to win him over in the beginning."

Xiao Ziyu saw that Xiao Guozhang trusted Luan Yun so much.

He immediately fell silent, and he no longer continued to disagree with Xiao Guozhang.

He must be looking for an opportunity to test Luan Yun.

Next to my father, a person of unknown origin suddenly appeared.

This man also indirectly caused his father to lose his right and left arms one after another.

No matter how he thought about it, he felt that this was not a coincidence.

——

Emperor Liang Yu returned to the Prince's Mansion and fell into a drowsy sleep. He did not sleep peacefully.

He had a nightmare all night.

In his dream, he dreamed of his queen mother.

The queen mother's face was covered with blood, and she complained to him hoarsely: "Your Majesty, I was killed by someone. My death was unjust. You must avenge me."

The screams were so hoarse that Liang Yuhuang was completely stunned.

He was panting and woke up suddenly.

He sat up sweating profusely, looking around the bed in a daze.

Chengfeng heard the noise and ran in from outside.

"Your Highness, what's wrong with you? Why are you sweating so much...Is it a nightmare?"

Liang Yuhuang's hands and feet were extremely cold. He grabbed Chengfeng's hand tightly and looked at Chengfeng hesitantly.

"Gu was dreaming about Gu's mother and queen. She...she said that she died unjustly. She said that everyone killed her."

"Chengfeng, tell me, is this dream hinting at Gu? These years, Gu has been investigating the cause of his mother's death... but Gu has found nothing."

"Why is it that at this time, when Gu wants to give up the throne, the queen mother gives Gu a dream? Are there really ghosts and reincarnation in this world?"

Chengfeng looked at Liang Yuhuang with worry in his eyes.

He wanted to say something to appease the prince, but after thinking for a long time, he couldn't think of what to say.
