Baili Ming was a little surprised, but he still patted her back patiently and lowered his head to whisper in her ear.

"Hongyu, let's talk about the past later. Let's deal with the things here first. Be good and listen to me."

Hearing the familiar tone and manner, Xiao Hongyu burst into tears, but still obediently came out of the man's arms.

"Okay, Brother, you take care of things here first. I'll wait for you. Don't disappear without me this time, okay?"

Baili Ming was slightly stunned, then he smiled and said, "Okay!"

He patted Xiao Hongyu's shoulder, looked at the people on the stage and the man lying on the ground, looking at him fiercely like a snake.

"Are you Red Lady's senior brother?"

Qi Yi gritted his teeth, endured the severe pain all over his body, climbed up, and knelt on one knee on the ground.

Only he himself knew that no pain in his body was as sharp and intense as the pain in his heart at this moment.

"Qi Yi, do you recognize me?"

"Ha! Ha! Ha! I recognize you. Of course I recognize you! You are the senior brother that Hong Niangzi has studied with for twelve years, and you are also the man I have been looking for for twelve years."

"Why are you looking for me?"

Baili Ming quickly went through it in his mind.

If he had not accidentally saved Qi Luobai this time, he and the Regent of Nanqi should have had no intersection.

"Why? Good why?

Twelve years ago, Lady Hong saved me, and I fell hopelessly in love with her. However, in her eyes and heart, there was only one Senior Brother Bai, a Senior Brother Bai who had left Qianliu Mountain and had no news from him since.

It's you, you are like a shadow, preventing Hong Niangzi from falling in love with me, preventing Hong Niangzi from marrying me.

I have arranged people to look for you everywhere, hoping to kill you before Lady Hong finds you and put an end to her thoughts of you.

But who are you?

Who is it?

Why can't anyone find you?"

Hearing this, Baili Ming was a little stunned. He looked at Hong Niangzi with some confusion in his eyes. For a moment, he couldn't figure out what these words meant.

Xiao Hongyu and Qian You teleported in front of Qi Yi at the same time.

"What did you say? You sent someone to kill my senior brother?"

"You've been sending people to track down my second uncle, and you want to kill him?"

The two spoke at the same time. Xiao Hongyu was stunned again when she heard Qian You's question and looked at Qian You cautiously.

"Sister Hongyu, that man is my second uncle, Baili Ming. He is now the Duke of Dongbo of Dongcang Country. He did not leave without saying goodbye more than ten years ago. Instead, on his way home to attend my eldest brother's wedding, he learned that the entire family of Duke of Dongbo had been slaughtered for treason. He hid in the mountains under an assumed name and spent more than ten years accumulating strength to establish Qianmai Palace."

Qian You gave a brief explanation to avoid Hong Niangzi misunderstanding his second uncle.

"The Emperor Dong Cang's edict of guilt a few days ago was about the incident at the Dongbo Marquis's mansion, and was meant to vindicate the Dongbo Marquis and his son. Was it you, uncle and nephew, who did it?"

Xiao Hongyu traveled to various countries and of course knew about the sensational overturn of a verdict some time ago.

Rumor has it that a bloody murder took place in the Dongcang Marquis's mansion, which was uncovered by a posthumous child. It is also said that there is a second son of the Dongcang Marquis's mansion who survived and was re-ennobled as the Marquis of Dongcang by the new emperor.

"Yes, my second uncle and I just found out about each other and have known each other for a short time."

Qian You answered Xiao Hongyu's questions patiently. She didn't want Sister Hongyu and Second Uncle to have any misunderstandings.

"Ha! So he is from Dongcang. No wonder I couldn't find anyone who looked like him after searching all over Nanqi, and I even mistakenly killed several people who looked like him and had studied martial arts at Qianliu Mountain."

Qi Yi was holding on, but when he heard the conversation between Qian You and Hong Niangzi, he suddenly collapsed.

"You, it's actually you? In the past ten years, there have been disciples from Qianliu Mountain who have disappeared inexplicably in Nanqi. The elders have been investigating this matter, but I didn't expect it was you who did it. You are really crazy."

Xiao Hongyu looked at the dying person on the ground with uncertainty, somewhat unable to believe it.

"It's me. I killed someone for you. Why are you thinking about your Senior Brother Bai so much and not even looking at me?"

Qi Yi's spirit had collapsed, and he looked at the woman who had once saved him from despair.

After all, it is the fate that I have chosen, so why should it come and go like this?

“You really disgust me.

Just now I still felt a little guilty towards you. During the fight between you and Qianyou, I couldn't convince myself to help anyone, so I stood there without moving.

However, your behavior is not gentlemanly, and it also involves the affairs of Qianliu Mountain. I will personally send you to hell to avenge my innocent brothers and sisters who died."

Xiao Hongyu poured her internal energy into the soft sword and stabbed it towards Qi Yi's heart.

Qi Yi knelt on the ground, holding the sword with both hands, blood flowing from the corners of his mouth. His pair of blood-red eyes looked at her blankly like a snake spitting out its tongue. Xiao Hongyu was frightened so much that she drew her sword suddenly, staggered back a few steps, and when she was about to fall, a pair of strong arms supported her.

"Qi Yi, you are a violent murderer, and you are doomed not to survive. Go down and confess to your brother."

Baili Ming supported Xiao Hongyu's staggering body and looked coldly at Qi Yi who was lying on the ground and dying.

A pair of cuddling figures gradually blurred his eyes.

Qi Yi stared unwillingly, trying to see the person in front of him clearly again.

The fluttering red dress that year, the rainy night that year, and his pounding heart that year, kept replaying before his eyes, and he died with his eyes open.

The palace guards were put under centralized custody by the army brought by Cangyu. Except for the Minister of War Gao Luming who was tied up and detained, other ministers were still able to move freely.

Qian You instructed Cang Yu to detain dozens of secret guards who had been poisoned and lost their internal strength and had not participated in the battle, in order to prevent any extremely evil criminals from counterattacking again.

Qian You asked Qiao Mu to take people to count the casualties of the Qianmai Palace participants.

Half of the more than one hundred people who sneaked into the hall fell down, and the others were also injured.

These were the elite killers of Qianmai Palace. They had lived and eaten together for several months. Before leaving, they were still handsome young men. Now they were lying in a pool of blood, which made them feel heartbroken.

Qiao Mu arranged for people to gather them together, with a compassionate look on his face.

Qian You's face was also very pale.

She was afraid.

If Cangyu had not arrived with his troops, even if she had managed to kill Qi Yi, she would not have been able to escape from the hall which was surrounded by nearly ten thousand guards.

Even if he managed to escape, he would not be able to escape from Lidu, which is deep in the center of Nanqi.

She and her people will inevitably perish in Nanqi.

She looked at Cangyu who was busy with Qi Luobai, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

When did he make such a plan behind her?

If he leaves Dongcang like this, will the domestic situation be stabilized?

When Qiao Nan heard about the chaos in the hall, she was about to organize the outer forces to attack. But when she saw the black mass of troops rushing towards her in the distance, her heart sank to the bottom of the icy lake.

She had to order the people around her to disperse and hide, temporarily preserving their strength and waiting for rescue later.

When she saw the generals in black armor quickly taking control of the scene, she was terrified and worried about Qianyou and her brother inside.

But when she saw two familiar figures among the black-armored army, she was so happy that she burst into tears.

She excitedly led the Qianmai Palace's support personnel to rush towards the three layers of encirclement inside and outside.

The outer security team, led by Xiuzhu, was clearing out the defense. They were very excited to see Qiao Nan and readily let her into the hall.
