Chapter 71
"You... killed him?"
Both sides were shocked; in the end, the first to speak and break the silence was Princess Princess Honglian.
She gathered her courage, walked to Su Xuan’s side, first glanced at the corpse of the Blood-Clad Marquis on the ground, and then asked Su Xuan softly.
"Isn’t the result already very obvious?"
Su Xuan’s expression was calm; killing a big figure like the Blood-Clad Marquis Bai Bai Yifei gave him no sense of self-satisfaction; it looked as if he had just casually crushed an ant on the side of the road.
"The Blood-Clad Marquis is an important official in the military..." Princess Princess Honglian was not unable to accept that Bai Bai Yifei was dead, but rather that Bai Bai Yifei’s status was unusual, and Su Xuan killing him would bring about extremely serious consequences.
"Is the Princess worried about me?" Su Xuan’s gaze landed on Princess Honglian’s face, with a half-smile.
Princess Honglian’s cheeks flushed slightly.
Although it was Bai "783" Bai Yifei who rescued her from the death row, she was very happy that Su Xuan could come here.
As for the matter of Su Xuan murdering her father, which Bai Bai Yifei had mentioned.
In the end, she chose to believe Su Xuan’s words, which were that he did not murder her father.
After all, when it came to the relationship between Bai Bai Yifei and Su Xuan, it was clearly the latter with whom she had a better relationship.
Princess Honglian absolutely did not believe that Su Xuan would murder her father.
"Princess, do not worry; if you are trying to say what kind of influence killing the Blood-Clad Marquis will bring, then there is no need; anyway, I have already become a wanted criminal, so it doesn’t matter if I have a few more charges on me."
"Even, the Blood-Clad Marquis is dead, the Princess should be happy."
"Happy?" Princess Honglian was puzzled; her father was seriously ill and dying, how could she be happy?
"If my guess is not wrong, the King of Han’s illness probably has a great deal to do with the Blood-Clad Marquis! A person who murdered his own father dying in front of one, how is this not a happy thing?"
Nearby, Yan Yan Lingji listened to the conversation between Su Xuan and Princess Honglian and found it interesting.
Su Xuan and Bai Bai Yifei were indeed interesting people.
Bai Bai Yifei said in front of Princess Princess Honglian that Su Xuan murdered the King of Han, while Su Xuan directly said that the one who murdered the King of Han was Bai Bai Yifei.
At this moment, even if the one who murdered the King of Han was not Bai Bai Yifei, I am afraid no one on the scene could refute it.
After all, Bai Bai Yifei was already dead.
Dead at the hands of Su Xuan.
But Yan Yan Lingji ultimately underestimated the contrarian nature of some people.
"Whether you murdered my father, I will find out the truth myself, rather than having you tell me!" Han Fei’s voice was cold and suddenly rang out.
For some reason, seeing his sister Princess Honglian trust Su Xuan so much, he felt very uncomfortable in his heart, sour, as if the Chinese cabbage he had worked so hard to raise at home had been stolen by someone.
Even though Su Xuan had just killed Bai Bai Yifei in front of him, displaying powerful and shocking strength.
"Princess Honglian, since you are out of danger, then return to the palace with me immediately to see Father!"
Han Fei looked at his sister again, his voice grave.
Thinking of the situation of her father that Bai Bai Yifei had mentioned earlier, Princess Honglian’s expression was also grave.
Su Xuan once again used the Pot-Heaven Technique to temporarily collect Bai Bai Yifei’s corpse.
Then everyone took Princess Princess Honglian and left the death row together.
Master Tian Ze and the others were seriously injured; Yan Yan Lingji originally intended to stay here to take care of Master Tian Ze, but thinking of the humiliation she had suffered from Su Xuan earlier, in the end, Master Tian Ze used a cold attitude to make Yan Yan Lingji leave.
This made Yan Yan Lingji feel a bit aggrieved.
Finally, she came to Su Xuan and said something to him softly.
Su Xuan took a bottle of elixir from his bosom and handed it to Yan Yan Lingji.
Before coming, just in case, Su Xuan had brought some healing medicine, and this matter had been learned by Yan Yan Lingji.
Yan Yan Lingji placed this bottle of healing medicine in front of Master Tian Ze, then followed behind Su Xuan and left here.
Continuing through the secret passage back into Xinzheng City.
The time had already reached midnight.
Princess Honglian followed Han Fei toward the direction of the Wang Gong; although in the evening, all the Young Masters except the Crown Prince had been driven out of the Wang Gong, after the Crown Prince, who was guarding the King of Han, learned that Princess Princess Honglian, who had been kidnapped, had returned, the Crown Prince still immediately let them pass, allowing Han Fei and Princess Honglian to return to the palace.
Seeing that Princess Honglian had returned with Han Fei, Ji Ji Wuye, who was also guarding the palace, had a grave expression.
Princess Princess Honglian had returned with Han Fei, not Bai Bai Yifei, which was beyond his expectations.
Because according to his expectations, at this moment, it should have been Bai Bai Yifei capturing all the Regarding Baiyue rebels like Master Tian Ze and rescuing Princess Princess Honglian.
However, he did not think Bai Bai Yifei had failed.
From the fact that Princess Princess Honglian had returned, it was clear that Bai Bai Yifei had succeeded.
Princess Princess Honglian and Han Fei returning together was very likely because Bai Bai Yifei happened to meet Han Fei, who was looking for Princess Princess Honglian, so he let Han Fei bring Princess Princess Honglian back.
Then, Bai Bai Yifei, who was not even willing to do something like escorting the Princess back.
What urgent matter did he have?
Or rather, what was he busy with?
Ji Ji Wuye secretly guessed.
Although Bai Bai Yifei was the sharpest weapon under his command and also the subordinate he relied on the most, sometimes, even he did not know what Bai Bai Yifei was thinking.
The return of Princess Princess Honglian did not alleviate the King of Han’s illness; the King of Han did not even wake up, still in a fainting state of breathing more than he was inhaling.
Finally, in the middle of the night, the King of Han’s condition continued to deteriorate; even though the Imperial Physician worked hard, he ultimately failed to save the King of Han’s life.
The King of Han had passed away!
Princess Princess Honglian immediately cried her heart out, and the Crown Prince also ignored his status as the heir and cried loudly.
Zhang Kaidi and Ji Ji Wuye, these two ministers, one civil and one military, had different expressions.
Because Han Fei brought back Princess Princess Honglian, he was able to stay in the Wang Gong temporarily; he was also very sad about his father’s passing, but besides his sadness, he had one more thing to do, which was to investigate the true cause of his father’s death.
Ji Ji Wuye and Bai Bai Yifei’s statement was that Su Xuan colluded with Master Tian Ze to murder his father.
Su Xuan’s statement was that this matter had to do with Bai Bai Yifei.
Princess Honglian chose to believe Su Xuan.
Then what about him?
He believed no one; he only believed himself.
The matter of his father happened suddenly, completely without giving Su Xuan any preparation time; this Immortal Master favored by his father immediately became a wanted criminal.
But precisely because it was sudden, the preparations made by the planner might not have been so detailed, and there would eventually be traces left behind.
