Xian Li lowered her head, unconsciously stroking the back of her right hand under the table with her left hand, which had just been patted by Bingwen. She knew that what Bingwen said was not unreasonable.
But Su Qianle and Chen Rongrong were under her nose after all. Even if Xia Chu and Xiao Mubai didn't believe them, if she could be more alert.
Maybe, Xia Chu doesn't have to be so passive...
"Have you seen the young master? Did he tell Su Qianle how to deal with it?" Xian Li looked up, murderous intent suddenly appearing in his eyes.
"Master... it's not convenient for him to see us now." Bingwen knew that she had murderous intentions and sighed: "Xianli, you can't kill her right now. On the contrary, I hope you can protect her."
Xian Li looked startled, then slapped the table angrily: "What are you talking about? This kind of person won't let me kill her, but still asks me to protect her?"
"I know you are angry at the moment, so why don't I..." Bingwen reached over, thought for a while and tugged on her sleeves: "But think about it, if the young master comes out, he must ask her personally. Bar."
Xian Li turned his head away: "What else is there to ask? She is so pampered now, what else can she do besides love?"
Bingwen saw her biting her lip and called out softly: "Xianli..."
Xian Li remained silent and looked very unwilling.
Bingwen didn't understand. She hated this kind of betrayal person the most in her life.
She once envied Su Qianle for being able to see Xia Chu helping her and taking good care of her when she was in trouble, before falling into the abyss.
But what about her
Su Qianle didn't deserve to see Xia Chu again. She didn't even deserve to die in Xia Chu's hands.
"In addition to the young master, there is Qian'an..." Bingwen pinched her sleeves with two fingers and pulled gently: "I'm afraid that she will be silenced if she loses her use value. When I find out where she is now, …”
"Si Fu!" Xian Li said dullly.
"Eh?" Bingwen was suddenly interrupted by her, and his expression was startled.
"I followed her all the way after the case was closed. If I hadn't seen Si Nan taking her back to the Si Mansion, I wouldn't have concluded that she had colluded with Prince Yu because of Chen Rongrong." Xian Li still spoke with his head tilted.
"It turns out it's in the Si Mansion. That's not appropriate..." Bingwen suddenly realized.
Before he finished speaking, Xian Li had already stood up and left with his sword in hand.
When she reached the door, she paused, turned to look at Bingwen and asked, "If you have such a sister, do you still want to see her?"
Seeing his stunned look, Xian Li was speechless for a moment, looked at the flying white snow and sighed, and walked out of the house without waiting for his answer.
She suddenly felt very sad in her heart. If her brother was still lucky enough to live in this world, he knew that her hands were now stained with blood and she was no longer pure.
Are you still willing to meet her
Bingwen looked at her back. She looked extraordinarily heroic in the raging wind and snow, but she also looked extremely lonely. And the tone of the question she just asked was filled with an unspeakable sadness...
Bingwen pinched his eyebrows, put aside the random thoughts in his mind, called Bian Hao down, and asked him to inform Bian Ding to meet Xian Li at the Sinan Mansion to protect Su Qianle.
Boss Bian Hao reluctantly maintained his saluting posture: "I can't control him."
Bingwen took out a token from his arms. Bian Hao's face became solemn when he saw the order. He said "yes" and stood up and retreated.
Bingwen rubbed the token in his hand. There was a word "Xia" engraved on it, which was the token of the Hou Mansion.
This token was first given to Su Qian'an by Xia Chu so that he could do things in the capital. Later, after Su Qian'an left the capital, it was returned to Xia Chu.
It wasn't until yesterday afternoon that Xia Chu asked Bian Ding to send the token to Wentian Pavilion and give it to him.
He received the token yesterday and listened to Bian Ding's message. He felt very uneasy at that time.
But I never imagined that today's situation would be due to Su Qianle's defection...
He didn't know if Su Qianan still wanted to see this sister, but he had to give Su Qianan a chance to see her.
Bingwen put the token in his arms again and walked towards Xu Wenlan's room. Before he reached the door, he could already hear Zhao Xingwen and Xu Wenlan inside, scolding Su Qianle with passion...
When Bingwen pushed the door open and walked in, Xu Wenlan was pointing with his hands on his hips, while Zhao Xingwen rolled up his sleeves with a face full of indignation.
"Xingwen, you'd better go back to General Zhao's Mansion quickly. At this time, the Hou Mansion and your family's residence are probably surrounded. We have to find a way to appease them." Bingwen said as he walked over and pulled his sleeves off. He put it down and patted his shoulder, looking like he had a long way to go.
"You're not asking me to comfort you, you're asking me to go back and get beaten." Zhao Xingwen frowned with a bitter look on his face, looking very ugly.
"The Zhao family is now full of women. If you don't go back, why don't you ask your mother to come forward..." Xu Wenlan felt that what Bingwen said was very reasonable, and he also advised her.
Unexpectedly, after he finished speaking, Zhao Xingwen's eyes lit up, and he cupped his hands to Xu Wenlan and thanked him: "Thank you for reminding me."
Xu Wenlan looked at his flying back, touched his forehead, and asked Bingwen with a confused look on his face: "What did I remind him just now?"
Bingwen looked at him with one hand on his hips and one on his forehead. He couldn't bear to look at him like this. He pinched his eyebrows and said, "You should go back quickly."
Xu Wenlan pulled his arm: "Why? No one is blocking my mansion. Why are you chasing me away? I have to wait for Mu Bai."
Bingwen rolled his eyes at him: "Do you think His Highness King Mo is idle now? Just stop causing trouble and go back to the house to wait for Mr. Xu to come back. You can also explore his words and see what the situation is like in the palace now. .”
Xu Wenlan's eyebrows narrowed: "Isn't this poison real?"
Bingwen sighed, and Xu Wenlan had already walked to the door: "Oh, I have to go back to the house quickly to see if my father is back..."
Naturally, Xu Wanjun did not return home. At this moment, he was kneeling outside the Qingxin Hall with all the civil and military officials.
When Xiao Zimu returned to the palace, Concubine Lian sent someone to take him back to Yongning Hall. Concubine Lian was very dissatisfied with his attendance at Dali Temple today, and a scolding was inevitable.
And those ministers who had gone to Dali Temple today followed the crowd into the palace.
The courtiers who had not gone to Dali Temple received the news that the emperor was poisoned, and they all hurriedly entered the palace.
At the beginning, the emperor also summoned Jing Qibin, the Minister of Punishment, Kong Changhui, the minister of Dali Temple, and Feng Zhen, the imperial envoy.
After hearing today's conclusion of the case, Kong Changhui asked cautiously: "The Emperor's Holy Judgment, I don't know how to convict him in the end."
The reason why he asked this question was because Xia Chu admitted in person today that there was no way he could be vindicated. Now he had pinned the blame on the corpse burning case and could still save his life.
If the delay continues, the label of collaboration with the enemy and regicide will be further slapped on the head.
Even if it is, I can't even save my life...
