The palace affairs can wait; they can be dealt with tomorrow,\" Xiao Hezhen said considerately, and after a pause, as if suddenly remembering something, she asked, \"Right, where is my sister-in-law? Why didn’t she come back with you?

where Ye Qichi had gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, due to the sovereign-subject relationship, he dared not ask rashly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Yanqing looked sideways at Xiao Jinxing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching his indifferent face, as if there was a touch of emotion, and yet as if it was an illusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Yanqing was pondering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be that the Prince could only live his life in a way that suppressed his emotions, not daring to reveal any feelings, for fear that a slight loss of control might lead to complete breakdown?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, silence fell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Hezhen’s smile on her face retracted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, she felt as

slowly fading.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the grand hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only sound was Xiao Jinxing’s low and slow voice, saying, \"Ye Qichi, has passed away.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All expressions on everyone’s faces froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if thunder had struck on a clear day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The grand hall became so quiet that even breathing seemed to have ceased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long after the statement was made, no one spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was wondering if they had heard wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could Ye Qichi, who seemed to be forever full of vitality, simply die?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It must be a lie, right?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Hezhen gazed at her eldest brother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tears instantly fell like large beads spilling down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She felt this was the saddest and most devastating news she had heard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was no less shocking than the death of her emperor father.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it true?\" Xiao Hezhen’s choked voice asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grief made her want to wail in sorrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had always regarded her sister-in-law as her best friend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could she have fallen in battle?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could she never return?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Jinxing didn’t answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His Adam’s apple seemed to bob up and down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His fist clenched, body taut as a bow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet his face remained unchanged, as if it was dusted in frost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the grand hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Hezhen’s unstoppable sobbing echoed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The agony was too much to bear in silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Xingchuan simply listened, simply watched Xiao Jinxing take the highest seat in Daxuan Kingdom, saw him held in reverence by thousands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Ye Qichi...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet he perished in that stretch of sandy soil.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes already brimmed with a deep red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The word ’death’.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It really could shatter all his sanity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if a piece of his heart was suddenly ripped out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Missing, many, many pieces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shattered into bits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The promise was to protect what’s theirs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could such promises be casually broken?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Xingchuan, step by step, walked toward Xiao Jinxing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Jinxing raised his eyes to look at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at his bloodshot eyes, disregarding status and etiquette, he walked straight up to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Clang!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Xingchuan’s fist, directly struck Xiao Jinxing’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Hezhen cried heartbreakingly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, due to Gu Xingchuan’s action, he was so frightened that he couldn’t even cry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Xufan’s eyes moved slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They too were tinged with red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Knowing full well that Gu Xingchuan’s every act at this moment is an outrageous defiance, yet he just couldn’t bring himself to advise against it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Yanqing also just watched, indifferently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the closest attendant beside Xiao Jinxing, Xiao Wu, chose to turn a blind eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Jinxing’s face was heavily reddened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a refined and gentle person, yet he chose the most violent way to vent his emotions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He said, \"To die for you, huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One could guess it in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Ye Qichi wouldn’t die that easily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wouldn’t.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For someone else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The most likely would be.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Jinxing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mhm.\" Xiao Jinxing responded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His tone was cold and detached, betraying no hint of emotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Clang!\" Another punch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Xingchuan fiercely delivered another blow to Xiao Jinxing’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Jinxing took both punches from Gu Xingchuan, without even attempting to dodge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Xiao Jinxing’s martial arts skills, it was impossible for him not to have anticipated Gu Xingchuan’s actions in advance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone remained silent, their eyes filled with a hint of worry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not for Xiao Jinxing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But for Gu Xingchuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Xingchuan’s actions today, even a death penalty wouldn’t be excessive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the beating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Xingchuan seemed to have regained his calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But his calm face was filled with such sorrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stepped back a few paces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he knelt on the ground and kowtowed, \"This subject committed lèse-majesté; my crimes warrant a thousand deaths. I beg the Prince to execute me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Hezhen looked at Gu Xingchuan’s state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And cried even more uncontrollably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Xufan embraced Xiao Hezhen into his arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Hezhen did not resist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She even longed for something to lean on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was truly suffering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The death of Ye Qichi made her heart hurt so much it felt like she couldn’t breathe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The profound love Gu Xingchuan had for Ye Qichi deepened her sorrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If only.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If only the third sister-in-law had chosen Gu Xingchuan, how nice that would have been.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why did she have to be with him, her third elder brother?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Jinxing looked at Gu Xingchuan, who was kneeling on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From those two punches, he knew all of Gu Xingchuan’s intentions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hating Ye Qichi was one aspect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted more, to accompany Ye Qichi leaving this world together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, Xiao Jinxing’s eyes were also tinged with a hint of red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He averted his gaze, his voice icy and devoid of emotion as he said, \"In consideration of your overwhelming grief and your service in aiding Hezhen, I will not hold this against you this time.
