Xiao Chengyi watched her go away, and then arranged for everyone to clean up the body and carry the poisoned soldiers in.
After noon, it suddenly started to rain, but it washed away all the blood stains in front of the palace gate.
In front of the clean city gate, there are only traces left by arrows on the ground, telling the story of today's fight.
Fanghua Palace.
Yan Jingxuan sat in front of the stone pillar under the corridor, looking at the heavy rain in front of him. The clothes on his body were splashed by the rain, but he seemed not to notice it.
Xiao Yunchu walked over quickly, and her heart clenched when she saw him like this.
She knelt down and held Yan Jingxuan's hand and asked, "Didn't you say you were going to change clothes? What are you doing here?"
Yan Jingxuan said in a tired voice: "I'm tired. I can't walk anymore. Let's take a rest here."
Xiao Yunchu sat down next to him and said, "If you feel uncomfortable, just cry. There are no other people here and no one will know."
Yan Jingxuan said, "What's the use of crying? What happened has already happened and no one can change it. I just feel sad. Why is she so stupid?"
He knew that in fact, his sister had no intention of living today. She had been prepared to die from the moment she stood on the tower to negotiate with Han Qiancheng.
However, what killed her in the end was a cold arrow flying from nowhere.
It was obvious that Han Qiancheng had already compromised and agreed to her, and it was obvious that his sister was waiting for hope.
Yan Jingxuan closed his eyes and said, "If it weren't for me, Yongninghou Mansion would not have collapsed, Ling'er would not have gone to Qinghe, and she would not have met Han Qiancheng. I was the one who harmed her."
Xiao Yunchu was heartbroken. She hugged Yan Jing and said, "Ling'er won't blame you, so don't blame yourself, okay?"
Yan Jingxuan said nothing, he buried his head on Xiao Yunchu's shoulder, his body trembling.
The rain outside is getting heavier and heavier.
Xiao Chengyi changed his clothes and came to the flower hall. Ye Xiuchen, Shen Zhixu and others were already waiting for him, but Yan Jingxuan and Feng Changling were missing.
He found a chair and sat down, and asked, "Have you seen who fired the cold arrow?"
Shen Zhixu said: "That person is hiding in the dark. It must be Han Qianyu. There can be no one else except her."
Xiao Chengyi frowned: "If it is her, she must still be in the city, and we must find a way to catch her."
Shen Zhixu said: "Han Qianyu cares about Han Qiancheng the most. If you ask me, I will use Han Qiancheng as bait to force Han Qianyu to show up."
Xiao Chengyi said: "What if she is greedy for life and afraid of death and doesn't care about Han Qiancheng's life?"
Shen Zhixu frowned: "Then let me lure her out. In short, keeping her here will be a disaster."
All these things were caused by that woman, she deserved to die.
Xiao Chengyi didn't say anything. Although it was easy for the capital to arrest a large number of people, Han Qianyu was different. She had the evil doctor's poison in her hands, and she couldn't guard against it.
He tapped his fingers on the chair and said: "This matter is not urgent. If a city-wide search will only make her jump over the wall, it is better to let her relax her vigilance."
Shen Zhixu had no objection. He took a deep breath and asked, "What are you going to do with Han Qiancheng? Do you really want to save his life? You have also seen that he can't be kept alive like that."
Xiao Chengyi said: "Death is too cheap for him, he must live."
Shen Zhixu asked: "What should we do if he insists on seeking death?"
Xiao Chengyi thought for a moment and said, "I have a way to keep him alive, don't worry."
After saying that, he looked at Ye Xiuchen and asked, "Aren't you going to seek revenge from him?"
Ye Xiuchen sighed: "He is quite pitiful."
When Shen Zhixu heard this, he jumped up and down angrily: "How pitiful is he? Didn't he bring it upon himself? If I were you, I would beat him up to vent my anger."
He had not forgotten the dozens of whips Ye Xiuchen received when he was tied up by Han Qiancheng.
