Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

As Qin Canglan fell into a pool of blood in a daze, the shock was still lingering in his eyes.

Guo Huan looked at him coldly, took out a handkerchief, wiped the blood off his hand, and left expressionlessly.

Lightning suddenly flashed across the sky. Thunder rumbled. The dark clouds were torn apart, and a rainstorm slanted down.

Qin Canglan looked at the bean-sized raindrops, his eyes unfocused.

“Hua Yin… I’m coming for you…”

“Look! There’s someone over there!”

“Who is it?”

“Let’s go take a look!”

A few passing commoners rushed over in the rain.

“A man was killed!”

“He’s wearing armor. Is he a general of the Imperial Court?”

“There’s so much blood… Can he be saved? Hurry up and send him to the medical center!”

“It’s too late. He’s out of breath…”

In the darkness, a man in blue wearing a bamboo hat walked over.

The young man said, “Someone was killed over there! It seems to be a general of the Imperial Court! Sigh, these days, even the capital has become a place for crime… ”

At the Imperial Astronomers.

Sikong Yun stood on the observatory in the attic and looked at the stormy capital.

“Master.”

A disciple came over with an umbrella and raised it above his head. “It’s raining heavily. Why don’t you go in?”

Sikong Yun placed his hands behind his back and looked at the pitch-black rain. He muttered, “The light of the General Star… is completely gone.”

The disciple did not understand. “Master, are you observing the stars? It’s raining. Of course I saw the stars.”

Sikong Yun said in a daze, “It’s not raining. It’s the death of a General Star that makes the world cry.”

“Sir! Sir! Something big has happened!”

The registrar of the Imperial Astronomers ascended the seven-story tower in one go and panted. “The old Duke… was assassinated!”

Sikong Yun closed his eyes in pain.

After Wei Ting and Su Xiaoxiao learned that Guo Huan had escaped, they immediately mounted their horses and rushed towards the Prime Minister’s Estate.

They sped through the rain.

“Watch the road!” Wei Ting said.

Su Xiaoxiao nodded!

Wei Ting tightened the reins and turned around, killing his way into the alley on the right.

Su Xiaoxiao followed closely.

If not for her harsh training these days, ordinary people would really not be able to control the speed in the rain.

Wei Ting brought Su Xiaoxiao through the storm with his shocking five senses.

Finally, they arrived at the alley a hundred steps east of the Prime Minister’s Estate.

This place had long been surrounded by officials and commoners from the Imperial Capital.

The two of them dismounted and squeezed into the crowd with cold expressions.

“What are you doing? Don’t push! Retreat!” An official shouted. Su Xiaoxiao pushed him away and walked towards Qin Canglan.

“What are you doing!”

The official was about to grab Su Xiaoxiao when Wei Ting showed the token of the Wu An Estate. “Wei Ting.”

The official’s expression changed and he hurriedly bowed. “Lord Wei!” Wei Ting also walked over.

Qin Canglan’s injuries were too serious, so no one dared to move him. A physician who passed by knelt in the rain to check on Qin Canglan’s injuries. He shook his head regretfully. “I can’t save him. Prepare for his funeral.” “Move aside, ” Su Xiaoxiao said.

The physician turned around and saw that it was a little girl in the rain. He said earnestly, “Miss, don’t cause trouble. Hurry up and go home.”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “I said, move aside!”

The physician and the official at the side were about to scold her when they were shocked by the sudden killing intent in her eyes. It was a pair of eyes that did not seem to belong to a living person. Just looking at them made one shudder.

The physician and officials moved aside in a daze.

Su Xiaoxiao squatted down.

Wei Ting took the umbrella from the official and placed it above her and Qin Canglan.

At the same time, his gaze landed on the dagger on Qin Canglan’s chest.

“It was Guo Huan…”

This was Guo Huan’s dagger.

It was the one his sixth brother had given Guo Huan on his seventeenth birthday!

Guo Huan was openly provoking him. He was telling Wei Ting and Su Xiaoxiao, “Look, I killed Qin Canglan!” At this point, everything was clear.

Division Leader Chen and Guo Huan had different missions. Division Leader Chen was to assassinate Emperor Jing Xuan, and Guo Huan was to assassinate Qin Canglan.

Guo Huan had been imprisoned in the courtyard for the past few days. During this period, it was impossible for him to interact with the White Lotus Society. From this, it could be inferred that he had already received the mission to assassinate Qin Canglan before he was captured.

Division Leader Chen did not know about Guo Huan’s mission, but Guo Huan definitely knew about his.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have calculated the timing so accurately.

If the White Lotus Society could find Guo Huan, it meant that Su Li had exposed himself.

Wei Ting had a bold guess as to how Su Li had exposed himself.

In addition, Wei Ting had an even bigger question in his heart—how did the people from the White Lotus Society find that courtyard?

In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Wei Ting’s mind.

Su Xiaoxiao touched Qin Canglan’s pulse and lay on his chest to listen to his heartbeat.

His pulse was gone, and she couldn’t hear his heartbeat…

“I’m going to do a surgery. I need a clean room.”

The nearest residence was the Prime Minister’s residence. Moreover, because Madam Guo was sick all year round, the Prime Minister’s residence was occupied by a physician, and the herbs were convenient.

However, it was impossible for them to bring Qin Canglan to the Prime Minister’s Estate.

Wei Ting frowned. “I know a place, the Imperial Astronomy Center!”

“Lord Sikong! They’re outside the door. Should we let them in?”

The registrar asked.

Sikong Yun said, “Yes.”

The registrar hesitated and said, “Sir… I understand that you have a good relationship with the Old Protector Duke of the country, but your identity is special. His Majesty is very wary of you interacting with important ministers in the court. Moreover, I heard that the Old Protector Duke of the country is no longer breathing..

Sikong Yun looked at the pouring rain and said seriously, “Open the door. I’ll send the Protector Duke off for the last time.”

The thick black iron door was opened by eight experts. Wei Ting carried Qin Canglan in.

He said solemnly, “Prepare a clean room!” Everyone turned to look at Sikong Yun.

Sikong Yun nodded. “Do as Lord Wei says. ”

“Let me lead the way!” the disciple said. “Lord Wei, please follow me!”

Behind Wei Ting was a unfamiliar little fat girl. No one paid much attention to her.

Just because she was with Wei Ting, he let her in.

The door slowly closed.

The capital magistrate was shocked. “Hey! Hey! I haven’t come in yet! I want to investigate a case!”

The disciple brought the three of them to the room at the east end of the first floor.

Wei Ting slowly placed Qin Canglan on the bed.

Su Xiaoxiao said to her disciple, “Please prepare a set of dry clothes, a bucket of hot water, scissors, golden sore medicine… If there’s no golden sore medicine… Bai Ji, Immortal Crane Grass, and purple pearl leaves are fine! I need a little cinnabar! If there’s none of that, Hundred Herbs crCeam is fine!” The disciple was stunned. “Hundred… Hundred Herbs Cream?”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Ash!” “Er… yes.”

The disciple left at a loss.

“I’ll help!” Wei Ting went to look for clothes.

Sikong Yun came to the room.

He looked at Su Xiaoxiao deeply. “Are you planning to save him?”

Su Xiaoxiao didn’t know Sikong Yun, but from his temperament, it wasn’t difficult to guess that he was the rumored Grand Astronomer.

He had once approved of Princess Jingning’s fate. He said that Princess

Jingning carried the luck of the Great Zhou royal family. This was also why Princess Jingning had become the most valued heir of Emperor Jing Xuan even though she was not good at pleasing her elders.

After the assassination today, the first thing Emperor Jing Xuan asked was— “How is Jingning?

Su Xiaoxiao unbuttoned Qin Canglan’s clothes. “Yes, I want to save him.”

The Grand Astronomer said with a complicated expression, “You can’t save him. It’s fate for a general to die.”

“Fate?”

A trace of mockery and unruliness flashed across Su Xiaoxiao’s eyes.

“Then I’ll go against the heavens!”
