Could it be that the Emperor was still unable to defeat Xuanyuan?!

Xuanyuan Hongxi, who couldn't speak a word, directly threw the inkstone closest to him out. The inkstone fiercely bounced on the door with a bang.

Immediately, all the imperial guards outside the palace gates were so frightened that their bodies trembled, and they immediately fell to their knees.

At this moment, someone hurried out of the hall. Once the young eunuch had seen who it was, he did not hesitate to return to the imperial study to report the news. The young eunuch then knelt down in front of the hall and spoke in a clear voice.

"Reporting to your majesty, the leader of the imperial guards, Lord Zhou Heng, is here for an audience."

Zhou Heng?

Why is he here?

Xuanyuan Hongxi retracted the anger on his face. "Let him in."

"Cover."

Zhou Heng quickly arrived at the hall. As soon as he stepped through the door, he saw the imperial study's sorry state clearly. His expression darkened as he thought to himself, His Majesty will probably be even more annoyed by what he's about to report …

Zhou Heng bowed respectfully. "Greetings, your majesty."

Xuanyuan Hongxi's expression was cold and his eyes were filled with boredom. It was obvious that his anger had not yet subsided. "Speak, what matter do you have with Zhou Aiqing?"

Zhou Heng nodded slightly and said in a low voice, "Your majesty, according to the people from the house of the Marquis, your grandfather's daughter, Lan Yi, is on the brink of death."

What!

It was already life threatening!

Xuanyuan Hong stood up abruptly. "You Lanyi is about to die?!"

"Yes."

Yes!

Xuanyuan Hongxi suddenly sucked in a deep breath. In truth, he didn't care if Weilan died or not, but he couldn't help but care for this matter. Xuanyuan Guang Yi was just about to die after receiving the imperial edict, so her death was just too timely!

Xuanyuan Hongxi strode out from behind the jade table, "Have you found the cause of death?"

"The messenger said that Miss Wei left with the Regent at noon. An hour later, she was sent back to Hou Mansion and was already in danger of death. It was said that she accidentally fell off the carriage and didn't have the time to investigate."

Xuanyuan Hongxi's eyes suddenly glazed over. "What do you mean, didn't investigate it thoroughly?"

Zhou Heng couldn't help but furrow his brows in embarrassment. "That's because the Regent King had sent people to protect Lady Wei's Warm Fragrance Pavilion. He said that his wangfei would naturally be treated with all her might. No one else is allowed to interfere."

"Bullshit!"

The majestic Emperor Xuanyuan Hongxi unhesitatingly cursed out loud, and Gao Yuan and Zhou Heng immediately dropped to the ground.

Xuanyuan Hong gritted his teeth as he walked towards Zhou Heng, "What do you mean falling off the carriage!?" What full strength treatment! Does he think This Emperor is an idiot!? "

Xuanyuan Hong Xi, who had been roaring, suddenly had a face of realization. He was not a fool, he had been played thoroughly by Xuanyuan Feng!

Today, he was ordered to receive orders. Tomorrow would be the day of his death, and he would be buried under the title of an imperial concubine. What humiliation would a dead woman bring to him as a regent's consort?

The world would say that he could not bear the death of the regent's concubine, and that he, Xuanyuan, would be a righteous man, for such a humble woman, even in death, would receive such a favor from him, and he would have earned enough of her and praised her, and would have removed all obstacles.

Xuan Yuan!

This time, Xuanyuan Hongxi was no longer simply throwing things around, he had directly smashed the entire royal study.

After returning to his mansion, Xuanyuan Yun directly threw the imperial edict into a corner of his study, then rushed in like the wind, "Your Highness."

Xuanyuan Yun looked indifferently at Ru Feng, "Have you sent him back yet?"

Ru Feng nodded his head gloomily, "Yes, we've already returned to the Warm Fragrance Pavilion. I've sent a servant to isolate the Warm Fragrance Pavilion from the outside world, saying that Miss Wei's life is in danger because she accidentally dropped off the carriage."

Xuanyuan Wentian turned around and looked at Ru Feng with a profound gaze. A moment later, he gave a cold smile. "Are you afraid that outsiders will find out that it was this duke who beat Ulan to death?"

"Subordinate …" Ru Feng lowered his head slightly. "Yes."

He thought for a long time on the way back to the manor. He felt that the true cause of death must not be made known to the world, because once the world knew how to criticize the prince, then his reputation would be gone.

"Prince, Rufeng took the initiative to make the decision. Rufeng is willing to accept the punishment." Rufeng abruptly knelt to the ground.

Xuanyuan Yun's eyes were unfocused as he looked at the wind kneeling on the stone ground.

Punishment?

How could he punish a subordinate who only cared for him?

But he didn't care. He wasn't afraid that the world would know that he had killed Ulan Yi, that it was up to them to know. He didn't care about fame.

Xuanyuan Yun shifted his gaze away from Ru Feng and quietly passed the matter. His voice was indifferent as he asked the next question.

"How is she?"

Ru Feng replied truthfully, "Your subordinate has let the doctors of the manor see it. Lady Wei's heart meridian has been shattered, and the blood in her body has started to flow in reverse. It's only been a few hours."

Hearing these words, Xuanyuan Feng already had an answer in his heart, but after hearing Ruofeng's words, his entire body couldn't help but lurch. Several hours had passed …

He really did kill her...

It was unknown why Xiao Lan's gaze that was filled with killing intent suddenly appeared in front of him. Xuanyuan Yun couldn't help but twitch his finger.

At that time, she really wanted to kill him.

A moment later, Xuan Yuan's finger suddenly stopped moving.

That's not right.

Why would she want to kill him if she wanted to marry him or find someone with power? She should be very clear that if she killed him, not only would she not get anything, she would also lose her life.

Xuanyuan, whose mind was bright, was increasingly unable to think of a motive for such a move.

As if seeing Xuanyuan Yun standing there solemnly and not saying a word, Feng walked out of the study room with light footsteps and no one dared to disturb him.

At this moment, Xuanyuan Feng's mind was completely filled with Xiao Lan's every move. Xiao Lan's appearance was a light smile, Xiao Lan's disdainful appearance, Xiao Lan's shocked appearance, Xiao Lan's furious appearance, and finally, Xiao Lan's appearance that was filled with killing intent!

No matter what it was, Xiao Lan's face was becoming clearer and clearer in Xuanyuan Feng's heart. Gradually, Xuanyuan Feng's breathing became heavy and uncontrollable.

"Gu gu gu."

A carrier pigeon steadily landed in front of Xuan Yuan's window. Xuan Yuan turned his head to look, and seeing where the carrier pigeon was, he quickly walked over.

Xuanyuan Yun personally picked up the carrier pigeon and tied it to the carrier pigeon's leg. There were only six words on the paper.

Just these six words were enough to cause the normally calm Xuanyuan Feng to twitch. He casually crushed the slip of paper and quickly walked out of the study room. However, he did not leave as Ru Feng was waiting quietly not far from the study room.

"Your Highness."
