He killed someone, she finished him off, even the crazy Marquis was shocked

"I feel that the sacrifice cannot be delayed no matter what. If there is a place that can temporarily replace the sacrifice site, that would be the best."

"A place that can replace the sacrifice site..."

Everyone was at a loss as to what to do, when suddenly someone spoke up.

"I have heard that there was a sacrificial site on the east side of the imperial mausoleum. Later, due to the change of feng shui, it was moved to the Imperial Sacrifice Village. Now the situation is urgent, maybe we can reopen the old sacrificial site."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.

"No, since it is an old sacrificial site, it must have been abandoned due to bad feng shui. Offering sacrifices in such a place is disrespectful to the royal ancestors."

"That's right. The old sacrificial site has not been used for more than ten years and has become deserted. I'm afraid it's too late to tidy it up now!"

Seeing everyone's objection, Xiahou Su thought for a moment and said, "The cause of the dynasty is most important to the emperor, and ancestor worship is important in the heart. According to Feng Shui, the emperor's ancestors have spirits, so there is nothing to be afraid of. As for the desolation, the people in the imperial mausoleum now have enough time to clean it up in one night. Otherwise, if the ancestor worship is delayed, it will be a big deal."

"Young Marquis Su is absolutely right."

Many people agreed, and the emperor thought about it and made a decision immediately.

"Come here, tell someone to do as Young Marquis Su said."

"Yes."

The important matter has been decided. The emperor looked at everyone and said, "Everyone else please leave first. Those who are at Jihuangzhuang will stay."

"Wei Chen resigns!"

The rest of the people all withdrew, leaving only Li Siwan, Xiahou Su, and Song Qiyu in the hall.

His Majesty said in a serious tone, "What happened? I heard from them that after the fireball fell, Young Marquis Su was the first to arrive at the Imperial Manor, but then he rushed into the fire to save you and Li Siwan?"

The three words "Li Siwan" were emphasized.

Indeed, late at night, Song Qiyu and Li Siwan were alone in Jihuangzhuang, and Li Siwan was Xiahou Su's fiancée, which was abnormal no matter how you looked at it.

So when the emperor heard that Xiahou Su beat Song Qiyu violently, he was not surprised.

"Replying to Father, it was also a coincidence today. I happened to see Miss Li being assassinated. After rescuing her, I was worried, so I took her to Jihuang Manor first, and then notified Young Marquis Su to come and pick her up. But I didn't expect that there would be a fire."

After hearing this, Li Siwan couldn't help but admire Song Qiyu's reaction ability.

While using her assassination to divert attention, the reasons why she was in Jihuangzhuang and why Xiahou Su came to Jihuangzhuang so quickly were also made reasonable.

They simply cannot help but admit it.

"Is what he said true?"

Now, His Majesty's gaze fell on Li Siwan.

"Reporting to the emperor, it is indeed as the Fourth Prince said. Today, someone summoned me in the name of the Queen and took me to a remote place to kill me. Fortunately, the Fourth Prince rescued me and I was saved."

Xiahou Su was shocked, but he could not show it. He could only continue, "I did go to Jihuang Manor after receiving the notice from His Highness the Fourth Prince. I saw a fireball falling on the way. When I went in, I saw Wanwan almost died. I lost my mind and attacked His Highness. It was wrong. I hope Your Highness will forgive me."

"I understand that you are worried and confused, but this fireball incident is indeed strange. We didn't see any clues inside. I wonder if Young Marquis Su, who is outside, has seen what is going on?"

This was pushed to Xiahou Su.

"It was too dark at the time and I couldn't see anything."

"Father, Young Marquis Su has always been a meticulous person, and he is personally involved in this matter. Why don't we let Young Marquis Su investigate this matter? I believe that he will be able to get to the bottom of it."

insidious.

Li Siwan was secretly shocked.

His Majesty naturally does not believe in the theory of divine punishment.

If the investigation was handed over to Xiahou Su, he would become a thorn in the side of the mastermind behind the fireball incident. If he found out anything, he would offend people; if he found nothing, he would also offend the emperor.

It's a dilemma.

Just as His Majesty was looking at Xiahou Su, Li Siwan pretended to cough, and Xiahou Su quickly looked over with concern.

In a place where no one could see, Li Siwan placed his hand on the back of Xiahou Su's neck and inserted a silver needle straight into his neck.

Xiahou Su's expression paused slightly, but he immediately understood what Li Siwan meant.

"puff..."

Suddenly a mouthful of blood spurted out, and everyone was stunned for a moment.

Li Siwan immediately panicked.

"Young Marquis, what's wrong with you?"

Xiahou Su closed his eyes and pretended to faint in Li Siwan's arms.

"Your Majesty, the young marquis is already weak. Today he was in a fire scene and had an emotional turmoil. He can no longer hold on. Please save him, Your Majesty."

"Quick, send someone to take Young Marquis Su back home and send the imperial physician to treat him."

The scene was in a hectic state, and just like that, Xiahou Su was sent out, and Li Siwan followed him out in a panic.

Only Song Qiyu and the emperor were left in the hall.

The game is broken!

The emperor looked at Song Qiyu and sighed, "Are you satisfied with the situation today?"

"What do you mean, Father?"

"Don't you really understand what I mean? You are so reckless. It's fine that you do whatever you want on weekdays, but you dare to use such a big thing as ancestor worship as a bargaining chip?"

"Father..."

"Forget it. If it happens again, I will never let you off easily. Go back to your house and think carefully."

"It's Father!"

No one in the royal family is stupid.

But after all, he is of royal blood, so even if he is raised high, he will only put it down gently.

At this moment, Li Siwan and Xiahou Su had already returned to their own courtyard.

The emperor ordered the imperial physician to be summoned. Xiahou Su was already weak and was indeed emotionally disturbed, so there was nothing wrong with the diagnosis. He then prescribed some medicine and left.

After Wu Shang and others left, Xiahou Su suddenly stood up and looked at Li Siwan worriedly.

"Is what Song Qiyu said true? Did someone really attack you?"

"Well, I think it should be someone from Concubine Xin or the ceremonial officer."

"It's all my fault. I was negligent."

"You can't be blamed for this. It's me who delayed your plan. Now Song Qiyu will have to take care of himself."

The fact that Xiahou Su's men did not take any action meant that he knew that they had given up their plan after offering sacrifices to Huangzhuang.

The fact that he arrived so quickly after the fire meant that he had already rushed over when he knew she was at Jihuangzhuang.

Coupled with the fact that he rushed into the fire scene regardless of the consequences, Xiahou Su had become a different person to Li Siwan.

Looking at Li Siwan's self-blame, Xiahou Su subconsciously reached out and touched her head.

"Dealing with Song Qiyu is not that easy, and there is still a long way to go. There will be better opportunities, and now, I have achieved half of my goal."

"Could it be that you are here to play more than just a game of chess?"

"That's right, my other chess game is at the old sacrifice ground!"

Li Siwan was puzzled and didn't have time to think about it anymore, because her eyes were all on the scars all over Xiahou Su's body.

Those are what's left from the fire.

There were burns, scratches, and bruises from being hit.

Looking at these scars, Li Siwan knew how dangerous he was in the fire.

He quickly stood up and brought the medicine box, "Take off your clothes first, I will treat your wound."

Xiahou Su was stunned, but Li Siwan was not shy at this moment. Instead, he reached out and helped Xiahou Su take off his clothes.

I had expected that he would have many scars, but when I actually saw them, my eyes instantly turned red.

She picked up the handkerchief and wiped him clean carefully, then applied medicine and bandaged him.

Li Siwan himself was already in a very miserable state, but he didn't care at all.

My heart is entirely on Xiahou Su.

The candlelight flickered, enveloping her body.

Under the gentle tenderness, there is tranquility and compassion.

Xiahou Su just looked at her, "Wanwan."

"Ok?"

The moment Li Siwan raised his eyes, the tears in his eyes unexpectedly fell.

At this moment, Li Siwan was stunned, and so was Xiahou Su.

The persistence somewhere deep in my heart collapsed.

There was an endless stream of light in Xiahou Su's eyes, his brows were slightly wrinkled, and the heartache in his eyes gradually turned into impulse.

This tear was breaking his restraint.

He reached out to touch her cheek, and as his fingertips brushed away the tears, he leaned over.
