Lin Gong took a deep breath, and the anger in his chest gradually subsided during the deep breath.

In his heart, compared with his sister's injury, the safety of the prime minister's mansion, although important, seemed insignificant at the moment.

He glanced outside the study, the moonlight was like water, quietly sprinkled in the yard, bringing him a sense of calmness.

"Ye Xuan, you made a really smart move."

Lin Gong murmured to himself, and his suspicion of Ye Xuan surged like waves, but he suppressed it forcibly.

He decided to wait and see what this sudden guest wanted to do.

In the quiet courtyard of the prime minister's mansion, Ye Xuan had already settled Si Lili.

Surrounded by green trees, birds singing and flowers blooming, it seemed like a fairyland isolated from the world.

Si Lili stood in front of the window, gazing at the beautiful scenery outside, and an inexplicable feeling of emotion surged in her heart.

She turned around and looked at Ye Xuan with clear eyes, flashing with excitement.

"Brother Ye, thank you for everything you have done for me."

"I know your intentions. Although I can't change your decision, I also understand that you really want to protect me. During this time, I will temporarily put aside the task of Da Qi and rest here with peace of mind."

Ye Xuan heard this, and a trace of relief flashed in his eyes. He knew that Si Lili was an extremely intelligent woman who could see through his intentions.

563He slowly walked to Si Lili and gently held her slender hand: "Lili, don't worry, I will always be with you until you are fully recovered. It's safe here, you can rest with peace of mind."

Si Lili felt the warmth of Ye Xuan's palm, and her heart was full of gratitude and warmth.

In this strange country, as long as Ye Xuan is there, she will not be lonely and helpless.

At the same time, in Si Nanbo's mansion, the atmosphere is extremely solemn.

Fan Xian and Fan Jian sat opposite each other, both of them with serious faces.

"Father, I was negligent this time."

Fan Xian lowered his head, and his tone revealed deep self-blame.

"I didn't expect Ye Xuan to be so cunning that he actually took the opportunity to sneak into Zuixianju and rescued Si Lili."

Fan Jian frowned, pondered for a moment, and then slowly said: "Xian'er, the incident has already happened, and self-blame is useless."

"Ye Xuan is powerful and meticulous. It is not easy to deal with him. What we need to do now is to learn lessons from this failure and strengthen our defense."

Fan Xian raised his head, with a firm light in his eyes: "Father, I understand. I will work harder to practice and improve my strength (bbai). One day, I will personally catch Si Lili and avenge my previous shame."

As the night deepened, Wu Zhu's figure quietly appeared in Si Nanbo's mansion under the hazy moonlight.

As always, he wore a black cloth strip to cover his eyes, but the light that came through the gap between the cloth strips was like the stars in the night sky, bright and mysterious, revealing a sharp temperament.

Even if you can't see hisFrom his eyes, one can also feel his sharpness and decisiveness.

Fan Xian saw Wu Zhu from afar, and a complex emotion surged in his heart.

Although the relationship between the two was a little subtle due to the previous grudge, Fan Xian still went forward with a smile on his face.

"Uncle Wu Zhu, you are finally back." Fan Xian said enthusiastically, trying to resolve the previous embarrassment.

Wu Zhu nodded slightly as a response.

His voice was cold: "This is the information you want."

As he said, he handed a file to Fan Xian.

Fan Xian took the file and secretly thought about how to use this information.

He knew that although there was a little estrangement between him and Wu Zhu, he still needed the support of this powerful ally in this vortex of power struggle.

Without Wu Zhu's help, his foothold in Kyoto would become precarious.

Thinking of this, Fan Xian couldn't help but think of the Heart-Eating Pill he had given Si Lili before.

The drug was carefully prepared by him. If there was no antidote within seven days, Si Lili would suffer unimaginable pain and eventually die.

This thought gave him an inexplicable pleasure, as if he had foreseen the scene of Si Lili's painful struggle, and also imagined Ye Xuan falling into pain and self-blame for not being able to rescue Si Lili.

This anticipated double torture filled Fan Xian's heart with a twisted sense of satisfaction.

However, Wu Zhu's next words were like a basin of cold water to extinguish the flame in his heart. (To read the exciting novels, go to Flylu Novel Network!)

"The people who murdered you are Wu Bo'an and Lin Gong."

Wu Zhu's tone was still plain, but this sentence set off a shocking wave in Fan Xian's heart.

Wu Bo'an? Lin Gong?

Fan Xian's face suddenly changed, and it seemed as if water could drip out of it.

He never expected that this conspiracy was actually related to the son of the prime minister's mansion.

Lin Gong, the prime minister's son who had always been gentle and elegant, turned out to be one of the masterminds behind the scenes.

At this moment, his hatred for Lin Gong was like a blazing flame, which was difficult to contain.

Fan Xian's heart was filled with a strong anger, but he also knew clearly that he was not strong enough to compete head-on with the prime minister's mansion at this moment.

He needed more power and more allies to support himself.

And Wu Zhu was undoubtedly one of his strongest backers, and he could not have a rift with Wu Zhu at this time.

Thinking of this, Fan Xian took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down his excited emotions.

He looked at Wu Zhu with gratitude in his eyes.

"Uncle Wuzhu, thank you for the information you brought. I will be careful and will not let you down."

The night was dark, and the moonlight shone through the window onto Si Lili's face, reflecting her pale complexion and frowning brows.

Ye Xuan sat quietly by the bed, with endless worries in his heart.

He stared at Si Lili, looking at her painful expression, as if his heart was alsoLike being cut by a knife.

"Li Li, what's wrong with you?"

Ye Xuan's voice was obviously trembling. He held Si Li Li's cold hand tightly, trying to give her some warmth.

Si Li Li slowly opened her eyes and looked at Ye Xuan's anxious and affectionate face, her heart full of guilt.

She concealed something important, and now, this secret finally made Ye Xuan aware of it. []

"Brother Ye, I... I feel a little uncomfortable."

Si Li Li's voice was weak and trembling. She tried to comfort Ye Xuan with a relaxed tone, but the pain made her words seem a little intermittent.

Ye Xuan frowned tightly, and he saw that Si Li Li was different.

He took a deep breath, trying to keep himself calm, and then asked seriously: "Li Li, tell me, did Fan Xian poison you?"

Si Li Li heard this, and a trace of surprise and panic flashed in her eyes.

She didn't expect Ye Xuan to guess the truth so quickly.

She nodded slightly and said in a low voice: "Yes, Fan Xian forced me to take the Heart-Eating Pill."

After hearing this, Ye Xuan's eyes flashed with anger, and he clenched his teeth, feeling angry at Fan Xian's despicable behavior.

But he also knew that now was not the time to be angry. He needed to stay calm and find an antidote to save Si Lili as soon as possible. .
