After almost an hour of performing, Ni Chang finally pulled Xing'er's hand away and personally went up on stage.

Ever since General Dou Jing was saved, Xiao Yuxuan had understood why Duan Mu Yan had asked him and Duan Zitong to go see Dou Jing. Duan Mu Yan's plan was indeed foolproof, but what Xiao Yu Xuan was worried about was how Duan Mu Yan could hide from the heavens. What exactly was she doing now? Why did she have the ability to save Dou Jing? What was she doing in the dark? Or did he think too much?

"Yu Xuan, what are you thinking about?" Every time she saw Xiao Yuxuan, her eyes would be filled with boundless love. Today, she would no longer try to hide her feelings, especially since Xiao Jingfeng had already died. She would never give Duan Mu Yan the chance to get close to Xiao Yuxuan again.

"Ugh …" This humble official kowtows to the Seventh Princess. I do not know that the Princess has not gone far enough to welcome me, and would like to ask for her forgiveness. " Xiao Yuxuan cupped his hands in greeting. Ever since that night, he had purposely avoided thinking about his relationship with Duan Zitong. However, she had appeared in front of him several times a day, so he had to think about it.

"Do you and I still need to be so courteous? "When there's no one else around, you can dispense with these formalities …" Duan Zitong said softly as she looked at the jade flute in Xiao Yuxuan's hand.

"Yuxuan wanted to thank the princess for sending Imperial Physician Zheng to see General Dou. Although it didn't help him live for two more days, at the very least it made him feel the emperor's kindness, so he didn't leave in too miserable a state." Xiao Yuxuan said indifferently, feeling mixed emotions in his heart.

"This is what I should do. Although Dou Jing doesn't like the crown prince, he was once an important official of the imperial court. Even if he committed a heinous crime, I should still take care of him due to the efforts he made." royal father already knows about this matter, and is praising me for doing well. "Therefore, it should be the catalpa that should thank you …" Duan Zitong smiled.

"No matter what, Yuxuan will remember the princess' favor. If there's anything you need, just tell Yuxuan. As long as he can accomplish it, he'll definitely go through fire and water." Xiao Yu Xuan said respectfully.

"If that's the case, then I only wish that Yuxuan can play a song for my 'Butterfly's Love Flower'. It should be a long time since I've heard Yuxuan play the flute. "I wonder if Yuxuan would like to play a song for me?" Duan Zitong's voice gradually grew softer as he looked expectantly at Xiao Yuxuan.

"Understood, Yuxuan." The beautiful flute melody reverberated through the entire Supreme Tutor Hall. Xiao Yuxuan stood there silently, his white clothes like snow, his black hair like a waterfall, casually standing there shaking all the living beings. Duan Zitong couldn't help but be immersed in the melodious flute melody, unable to extricate himself, and also unwilling to extricate himself.

When the news of Dou Jing's death reached Xiao Yin and Zhu Xu's ears, they were making their last efforts in the Imperial Study, but at that moment, both of them fainted. This time, Xiao Yin had been unconscious for two whole days before he finally regained consciousness, and after he regained his senses, he locked himself in his room. Even if he was eating, Housekeeper Zhou was already outside, so Xiao Yin brought it in.

"Esteemed wangfei, only you can persuade the old prince now. If this goes on, how can the old prince hold on?" Zhou Jing could not stop crying. Seeing this, Duan Mu Yan was extremely anxious. She had once tried to look for Xiao Yin, but Xiao Yin had closed the door and gone, leaving her with nothing to do.

"Housekeeper Zhou, don't worry, I'll try again!" Leaving behind Zi Min and Yao'er, Duan Muyan walked straight to Xiao Yin's room. Before she even knocked on the door, she heard the sounds coming from inside.

"Come in …" There was a time when Xiao Yin was in high spirits and full of vigor. Even though he was in the first place, his voice was sonorous and forceful. It was unexpected that he was already this old.

Duan Moyan walked into the room with two light steps, but the moment she opened the door, she stood there in shock, her eyes filled with astonishment.

"Father …" She did not expect that Xiao Yin would actually mourn until here. Within three days, his hair had turned completely white, and his originally upright body had now become abnormally hunched.

"Close the door." Xiao Yin turned around to look at Duan Mu Yan, his empty gaze devoid of the essence of the past. The Xiao Yin before him was not just a general that could shake the battlefield; he was clearly an old man in his prime. Hearing her voice, Duan Mu Yan shut the door behind her and walked over to Xiao Yin. She wanted to help him sit down, but was stopped by Xiao Yin.

"Mu Yan... There is one thing that this old man has been hiding in his heart for a long time, and he never wanted to tell you for his entire life. But this old man is old, and there are some things that he really can't take. Xiao Yin sat dispiritedly by the table, his eyes dim.

"Father, we have heard about the matter of General Dou. We can only blame Father for this matter. However, it is very difficult for Mu Yan to say that you were unable to do anything for General Dou because it is Mu Yan's greatest regret. Father, don't be too sad." In her eyes, Xiao Yin was much heavier than Duan Chen.

"It's not your fault, Mu Yan … That day, Wu Bingcheng told me clearly about Feng'er's case from beginning to end. This king had also investigated in private why Su JinXiu was able to confuse Feng'er. I believe that even if this old man didn't say it, you should be clear about it, right? " Xiao Yin's words were like a bolt of thunder that struck Duan Moyan's head. She never expected Xiao Yin to be talking about this. It was obvious that Xiao Yin already knew the whole story.

"Father... Mu Yan will not hide the truth from you. It was indeed Mu Yan who set up Su Jin Xiu, but Mu Yan only wanted Su Jin Xiu to be punished for his wrongdoings. Mu Yan swears to the heavens that if she has even the slightest intention of harming Si Feng, she will make Mu Yan be struck by lightning! " No matter how much she tried to conceal the truth about this matter, there would always be a day where the truth would be revealed. Now that Xiao Yin had revealed it to her face, she suddenly felt that the stone in her heart had become much lighter.

"This old man has said that no matter what you do, this old man will not blame you. This old man knows very well what kind of person Su Jin Xiu is, and Housekeeper Zhou also told me exactly what happened. She actually went so far as to ruthlessly kill Shi Rou, and even tried to kill you. Xiao Yin let out a long sigh, and Duan Muyan could clearly see the sparkling light in his eyes. This was the first time she had seen Xiao Yin so weak.

"Father... Mu Yan, I'm sorry, I'm sorry … " At this moment, she really did not know what to say.

"Hurry and get up, this old man can't take it!" Mu Yan, there is one thing that has been hidden in my heart for many years, perhaps it's karma. With today's result, this old man cannot blame anyone. " Xiao Yin mocked himself as he pulled Duan Mu Yan in front of him and continued.

"Back then, the Emperor had blamed all the crimes of Qin Yu Die not being able to enter the palace on Fei Li, which was why you and the First Prince were treated so coldly." Back then, the Emperor had blamed all the crimes of Qin Yu Die not being able to enter the palace on Fei Li, which was why you and the First Prince were treated so coldly. Available... But it's because of that misunderstanding back then that caused you, the First Prince, and Fei Li to suffer such a rough fate. Although this old man cannot say that I was the one who caused all of this, there is a responsibility that cannot be avoided. " At this moment, Duan Mu Yan's eyes were wide open as she looked at Xiao Yin in disbelief. She had no idea what Xiao Yin was talking about, what was going on in the harem, how could it have anything to do with an outsider?

"Father... Mu Yan didn't understand what you meant? royal father framed the mufei and told the empress dowager that Qin Yu Die was wrong, what does that have to do with you? " Duan Muyan subconsciously retreated a few steps, puzzled.

"Actually... In fact, the person who revealed Qin Yu Die's identity was someone else, not Riko. "It was only when Imperial Concubine Li left that the Emperor mistook it for her slandering words in front of the empress dowager. And the empress dowager, in order to ensure that that person's safety, never spoke of such a thing, so …" A trace of guilt was wiped off Xiao Yin's aged face.

"So you just watched mufei cry out that she was wronged for more than ten years? Watching the First Prince and I be ridiculed by others? Looking at how unfair royal father is to us, looking at how I loved Yuxuan but was betrothed to Yufeng and didn't tell royal father about this matter? "Heh …" At this moment, the benevolence on his face suddenly disappeared, and Duan Mu Yan's tears flowed. Her past memories were still vivid, and she had always believed that mufei was wronged. However, when she heard the truth, she was still unable to accept this reality.

"Sorry …" This old man wanted to inform the emperor of this matter as well, but with the death of the empress dowager, this old man couldn't find Wei Liang. Even if this old man told the emperor the truth, the emperor might not necessarily believe me! " Xiao Yin did indeed think this way, but in this case, it was like he was trying to shirk everything.

"Hehe …" If you didn't say anything, how would you know that the Emperor wouldn't believe you? You don't even have the courage to try. Watching mufei die in injustice, do you know that mufei will be buried and buried without a corpse after death! Why... Why did the heavens do this to me?! Mu Yan originally thought that without royal father's love, at least you, her father, would treat me as though I was nothing! Although I didn't mean to harm Su Feng, but I've always felt guilty, and I don't even dare to face you! But now, how do you want me to face you! Xiao Yin! "Do you know that your words are uncertain and cause mufei to feel wronged? I can forgive you for making your royal brother depressed, but won't mufei and your brother forgive you …" Duan Muyan fell to the ground in pain, tears streaming down her face.

She still remembered how wronged her mufei's eyes were when she was on the verge of death. How much she longed to regain her innocence. How much she longed for her father to enter the Jade pear palace …

"Sorry …" Mu Yan, I know that no matter how sorry I am, it will be useless. Now that Jin Feng has died, I finally understand what retribution is. All of this is retribution. Whatever, this old man will be leaving soon. If you want to be with Yuxuan or leave the Xiao family, this old man has no objections. As long as you are willing … " The sparkling droplet in the corner of his eye only landed on Duan Mu Yan when she left.

If she had known the outcome would be like this, she would have been willing to let out her emotions without knowing anything. After an hour of venting, only then did Duan Muyan stabilize her emotions, and Xiao Yin's words suddenly appeared in her mind: Father is leaving? Where are we going?
