After learning of Xiaoyi's death, the first thing Lu Lan had to do was to kill the sharp spirit of Yan Qinghan and others.

Thinking of Yan Qinghan and the others' reactions when they learned the news that Xiaoyi had died, Lu Lan's heart felt a burst of joy, and a vicious plan also arose in her mind.

"Hang this head at the gate of the city for the mourning family, so that everyone can see the consequences of betraying the mourning family!" Lu Lan ordered.

Qin Ziheng naturally would not disobey, and left Shoukang Palace with Xiaoyi's head on the order.

Secretly ordered by Lu Lan, Qin Ziheng ordered someone to hang Xiaoyi's head at the city gate.

As soon as this Xiaoyi's head was hung out, it caused a lot of commotion.

Both inside and outside the palace are full of discussions.

"This turned out to be the little son of the Xiao family who disappeared back then, oops, what a miserable death!"

"Xiao family, which Xiao family?"

"You don't know the Xiao family, it is the prime minister's family who intended to rebel in the previous dynasty, and nearly 100 members of the family died miserably, and the only Xiao family's little son who ran away seems to have been caught!"

"Rebellion? I don't think so, this is the queen mother's cruel methods, who knows the hidden secrets! ”

"Shut up, if this is for the soldier to listen to and say it in front of the Queen Mother, the head will be moved!"

There was a lot of talk on the long street, some regrets, some speculations.

Yue Yan and Yan Jinyu, who happened to go out to buy medicinal herbs, also noticed the usual bustle on the long street.

Walking towards the city gate, squeezing into the crowd, the moment he saw Xiaoyi's head, the medicine bag in Yueyan's hand fell to the ground instantly.

"How.. How.. How so!? At this moment, Yueyan only felt grief in her heart, and tears were already rolling in her eyes.

And Yan Jinyu, who was standing on the side, was also very surprised when she saw this scene.

"Yueyan, things may not be what we imagined, Xiaoyi will never be killed so easily!" Yan Jinyu didn't seem to believe that Xiaoyi died at the hands of the enemy like this, and still said with a glimmer of hope.

"But... However, Xiao Gongzi's head... head..."What hangs above the city gate is what Yueyan will never admit wrong, that is Xiaoyi, how can there be a fake.

There was also a notice posted next to the city gate, and after the two of them stepped forward to inspect, they knew Xiaoyi's true identity, and this true identity was also the real reason for his killing.

"Brother, how should I inform Chen Yi about this?" What worries Yueyan even more now is that if Chen Yi knows about this, he will definitely not give up, and maybe he will break into the palace directly.

"No, I can't tell Chen Yi about this matter for the time being, if he knows, he doesn't know what impulsive things he will do!"

Yan Jinyu naturally also considered what might happen, so she immediately objected.

"But can this matter be hidden? Mother's purpose for doing this is already obvious, and she is warning us. Yueyan was a little worried.

After all, paper can't hold the fire, and if you wait until Chen Yi finds out for himself, I don't know what will happen.

"Empress Lu must not know about your existence now, otherwise she would never use this kind of release to warn us, as for Chen Yi, you can hide it for as long as you can, and now General Gu's body has just recovered, and she can't be stimulated more, understand?"

What Yan Jinyu said is reasonable, and after thinking about it, Yueyan also agrees.

Then, the two took the medicine and quickly returned to the house.

Fortunately, when they returned to the house, there was nothing unusual in the house, because of their identity, so they did not have any special circumstances, they would not go out of the house, as long as no one walked, Chen Yi would not know about it for the time being.

It's just that Yueyan has been a little distracted since she came back, which makes Chen Yi a little concerned.

"Sister Yueyan, what's wrong with you?" In the face of Chen Yi's concern, Yueyan seemed a little more uncomfortable.

"No... It's nothing. Hurry up and send the medicine to General Gu. Yueyan said, handed the decocted medicine to Chen Yi, and went back to the room.

Chen Yi walked towards Gu Feng's room in a daze with a medicine bowl, and met Yan Jinyu halfway. 020 reading

"Hey, Brother Jinyu, what's wrong with Yueyan? Why is it strange to come back from outside? ”

"Is there one?" Yan Jinyu pretended not to know.

"Yes, absent-minded, when I talk to her, she dodges." Chen Yi was very sure.

"Xu is worried about the situation in the imperial city, so many things have happened recently, she must be tired, don't think about it." Yan Jinyu said lightly.

After hearing this, Chen Yi nodded, and did not have any more doubts.

"By the way, Brother Jinyu, I plan to go back to Qingxiao tomorrow to prepare and protect them in case of emergency." As soon as she heard that Chen Yi was going to leave the house, Yan Jinyu instantly became nervous.

"No, at this moment, the city must be full of Lu Lan's eyeliner, if you show up, it is extremely dangerous, there are Qi Guang and Jiang Gongzi in the imperial city, and they don't need Qing Xiao's help for the time being."

"But..."

"If you gather Xiaoxiao's people in the palace, something really goes wrong, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to even get out, huh?" Yan Jinyu interrupted him and said.

Hearing Yan Jinyu say this, Chen Yi also felt that there was some truth, and he didn't continue to insist.

Then, he went to deliver the medicine, and Yan Jinyu saw that Chen Yi dispelled the idea of leaving the house, so she put her mind at ease.

……

In the palace, Yan Qinghan also knew about Xiaoyi at this time.

Out of shock, he was more angry.

Before he could react, Du Ruosheng had already appeared in Weiyang Palace.

However, Du Ruosheng's reaction to him was not what he expected.

Du Ruosheng was extremely calm and did not move in the slightest.

"You know everything?" Du Ruosheng saw Yan Qinghan's constricted brows and asked.

"Lu Lan is simply too much, Qin Ziheng, this ungrateful guy! Lose Xiaoyi to help him like that! Yan Qinghan reprimanded angrily.

"Maybe we all misunderstood him." Yan Qinghan didn't understand Du Ruosheng's words.

"Misunderstanding? This has already happened, what is the misunderstanding?"

Yan Qinghan looked at Du Ruosheng with a puzzled face.

"Do you really believe that Xiaoyi died like this?"

"But that's all I can believe now."

Yan Qinghan was still puzzled.

"Let's plan the next thing well, as for Qin Ziheng, he is not something we need to consider."

After Du Ruosheng finished speaking, he left.

It's just that Yan Qinghan never understood why she questioned Xiaoyi's life and death so much, revealing that he was now hanging outside the city gate, unless Xiaoyi had nine lives, Yan Qinghan would never believe that he was still alive.

If it was Qin Ziheng who wanted to confuse Empress Lu, then what was his purpose, and there were more and more questions in Yan Qinghan's heart.

After Du Ruosheng left, on the way back to Huaqing Palace, she was thinking about Qin Ziheng's purpose all the way.

The only thing she can be sure of now is that Xiaoyi is safe, Du Ruosheng raised her wrist and gently groped for the dark red lines on her wrist.

After returning to Huaqing Palace, Du Qianzhi and Lan Nian also knew, but although Du Qianzhi didn't know why Du Ruosheng was so indifferent, Lan Nian had some guesses in her heart, she could feel that Du Ruosheng and Xiaoyi seemed to have been hiding something, just like the last time Qingxiao was attacked, Xiaoyi would arrive in such a timely manner, and it was not such a coincidence.

It's just that the reason for this, Lan Nian is still looking for an opportunity to know.
