A Bao hurriedly grabbed Xuanyuan Fengran's sleeve, but he suddenly took half a step back.

She looked up in astonishment and looked directly into his dark eyes, only to find that the murderous intent in his eyes had not subsided.

A Bao wanted to hold Xuanyuan Fengran's hand to comfort him, but he only got a hand full of blood.

She was shocked and quickly grabbed Xuanyuan Fengran's hand to examine it carefully.

Fortunately, it was the blood of those dead soldiers.

Xuanyuan Fengran was not injured, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

But there was clearly something wrong with Xuanyuan Fengran's mind.

The blood slid down his hand into the sword groove, and along the sharp edge, dripping onto the wooden board under their feet where waves of fire were rolling.

His eyes were red, and he seemed to be losing control.

At this moment, on the other side, in Pei Guichen's arms, Xiao Jingyue, who looked panicked, asked anxiously, "What should I do?!"

Pei Guichen looked at Abao expressionlessly.

The little girl stood in the flames, took off the white veil covering her eyes, and resolutely tied her wrists and Xuanyuan Fengran's wrists together.

Then, she looked at him.

No, she was looking at the corridor on the third floor behind him.

A Bao looked surprised, with slightly red eyes.

Pei Guichen's heart suddenly sank. He turned around and saw that the person walking in the corridor on the third floor was Xie Wuai.

Xie Wuai was covered in blood and looked quite disheveled, but his eyes were surprisingly bright.

He yelled at Po, "Sister! Found it!!"

Seeing that Xie Wuai was full of energy, A Bao felt relieved.

She also made a trumpet shape with her hands, put them to her lips, and yelled at Xie Wuai who was standing in the corridor on the third floor, "Catch them! Take them alive!"

Pei Guichen's heart suddenly turned cold. It was Abao.

It was Abao who led the Western Frontier scouts to locate the location of Suanni.

Just when Pei Guichen was both shocked and angry, Eunuch Su was brought out from the warm room at the end of the third floor.

The next person to be escorted out was a tall man.

The tall man was only wearing a white undershirt and had a calm expression.

He followed Xie Wuai's line of sight and looked at A Bao at the end of the corridor on the fifth floor.

Po also saw the tall man.

She was slightly startled, and suddenly remembered her previous life. She ignored Concubine Wen's strong dissuasion and rode her horse all the way to Liangshan outside the capital, but she only saw a charred corpse that had set itself on fire.

For months afterward, she refused to believe he was dead.

Some even believed that he had just faked his death and escaped, and that as long as the old emperor was no longer angry, he still had a chance to go home.

Later, half a year after she was named Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace, he did show up.

He surrounded the palace with 50,000 elite soldiers and almost forced her to commit suicide.

This was what she thought was a good royal brother, a good fifth brother.

She was sad about his death, but he wanted to force her to death for the throne.

A Bao looked at the tall man from afar and smiled at him with silent sarcasm.

——Fifth brother, long time no see.

The tall man also smiled brightly, but his eyes were cold.

——Imperial sister, long time no see. It’s a pity that you are not dead yet.

These are the royal siblings.

A Bao's eyes turned slightly cold and he clenched his fists.

Suddenly, Qi Niang laughed sarcastically and coldly, "You noble masters, coming and going, never look at us straight in the eye. Only the young master, only the young master is willing to help me."

Qi Niang looked at Pei Guichen, and then at Xiao Jingyue who was being protected in Pei Guichen's arms.

Qi Niang smiled very charmingly, but it was also very difficult.

"Sir, listen to Qi Niang's advice. You can't lie to a girl you truly like."

After saying this, Qi Niang smiled desperately.

Qi Niang has spent her whole life in the wrong relationship.

Now that she saw with her own eyes that her benefactor's plan had been exposed, she still wanted to save him.

So, she deliberately laughed sarcastically and said, "It is said that Her Royal Highness the Princess loves Master Pei very much. Qi Niang was ordered by His Highness the Fifth Prince to come here to sow discord between His Highness and Master Pei. Unexpectedly, His Highness saw through her plan before she succeeded."

Qinnan's words cleared all connection between Pei Guichen and her.

A Bao listened solemnly, but he was just listening casually.

She knew the relationship between Pei Guichen and her fifth brother Xuanyuan Wu very well in her previous life.

But when Qi Niang took off half of her makeup.

A Bao was still shocked and filled with horror.

Qinnan's half-face makeup made her look beautiful on one side, but on the other side, her burn scars looked like ferocious centipedes, extremely terrifying.

A Bao couldn't help but think of the skeleton beauty in the strange stories. If there really was a skeleton beauty, she would probably look like Qiniang in front of him.

After a brief moment of shock, A Bao felt a little sympathy for Qi Niang. If it weren't for the Pei family's assassins, she could have become famous with her dancing skills.

Suddenly, Xie Wuai yelled.

"Sister, be careful! Get out of there quickly!——"
