Chapter 143 Xiuran''s Death I
"Thank you, your Highness." Qingyan kowtowed to Qilian Yuran to thank for the great honor.
To be able to be Qilian Yuran''s adopted daughter and use this kind of identity to care for her was
also eptable. After all, Qilian Yuran was once her most beloved aunty.
"Since you''ve already be my adopted daughter, then just directly call me consort-mother." Qilian
Yuran said as she still looked to Qingyan with a faint smile.
Qingyan looked into Qilian Yuran''s eyes and smilingly spoke, "Consort-mother."
When Hongjia Emperor saw this scene, there was happiness all over his face too, especially under this
kind of circumstance. He''d already forgotten how long it''s been since hest seen the smile on Qilian
Yuran''s face.
One year, two year, or even longer?
Today, if she''s happy, then just let her be. After all, she''d never walked out from the pain of losing Qilian
Qingyan all this time. And now, if this girl can make her happy again, then naturally he would also be
happy too.
Qingyan''s performance can already be considered as the pinnacle, so it goes without saying that Ning
Yun''s performance afterwards, no one paid any attention to even more so. Not to mention in the
end, Ning Yun had even attracted a bunch of bees over, stinging her to beyond recognition.
Naturally Jing Marquis loved his granddaughter dearly, but unfortunately under these circumstances, it
was already for the best if no one else got hurt.
Xiuran was carefully observing Su Qingyan''s performance in the dark the whole time. He was also
once fortunate enough to have seen ''Qing Cheng Dance'' and [Thousand Beasts and Phoenix] before.
But now, seeing it again, it was as if he was in a dream. Right now, he could no longer tell if standing
before him was Su Qingyan or that gentle and kind Qilian Qingyan.
He still remembered meeting Qilian Qingyan for the first time that year. At that time, she was still just
the Crown Princess. Although she carried on her face a tranquil smile, there was no trace of happiness
in her.
At that time, he finally understood. What Crown Princess. What Empress. She simply didn''t care at all.
But then why did that girl care about the Empress seat that much?
Xiuran closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, coldness reflected in his eyes this time.
Unexpectedly, there was even more determination and ruthlessness carried in his eyes.
He looked towards the people in the surrounding. Then he drew out his sword from his waist, and after
seeing the silver light reflect from the sword, a huge wave of arrows all densely rained down upon
everyone present.
Sensing this cold chilliness, Xuanyuan Yuzhen raised his voice, "There''s assassins, quickly protect his
Majesty and the consorts." With that said, he pulled out his sword and began dealing with the iing
arrows.
Hongjia Emperor never imagined that something like this would happen during the Dragon Gate
Banquet. He quickly ran over to Qilian Yuran''s side and pulled her into his embrace at once, "Ranran
this Emperor will protect you."
Afterwards, the site was in chaos. The various princes all took part in it. Su Yun and Luo Bing were also
protecting the children by their side.
The banquet can be said to be inplete disorder. Just then, a lofty voice sounded, "We''vee to
avenge General Su Yun. We''re going to kill that darn Emperor to avenge General Su Yun."
When Su Yun heard this, he just knew that these people weren''t his subordinates, but were people
someone meticulously arranged to appear here to frame his people.
That''s why it''s only natural they would assume that Su Yun was already dead, but Su Yun was
obviously still well and alive.
"Take down the rebels. To actually dare nder our Ding General Su in such a way." Xuanyuan Yuzhen
ordered at once, and a separate group of people immediately charged in. Afterwards, all the men in
ck were ughtered. The entire Dragon Gate Banquet seemingly was tainted with the bloody odor,
the smell not dispersing for a long while.
When Lin Yan quickly rushed over, he directly knelt before Hongjia Emperor. "This humble subject has
Xiuran never thought that his wless n would actually be seen through. And just when he wanted to
turn around and escape, he instead heard a voiceing from behind.
"Xiuran, this Shizi has already been waiting here for quite some time." Murong Jingxuan appeared

before Xiuran along with Fengqing and Fengshuang.
"It''s you, Murong Jingxuan." Xiuran looked to Murong Jingxuan in front of him and tightly clenched his
fist. He then asked in a heavy tone, "How did you know it would be me?"
"This you don''t need to know. However, it''ll be very difficult for you to walk out the pce gates today."
Murong Jingxuan looked to Xiuran and calmly spoke, "Are you going toe with me, or do I have to
bring you back?"
Xiuran knew he wasn''t Murong Jingxuan''s opponent, but if he goes back with him just like this, then
perhaps it might even involve the entire Jing Marquis manor.
"Don''t worry, since it''s this Shizi taking you back, then naturally the Jing Marquis manor won''t get
involved." Murong Jingxuan immediately knocked away the dagger in Xiuran''s hand that he was going
to use tomit suicide.
Xiuran listened to Murong Jingxuan''s words, and his eyes widened at once. "Murong Jingxuan, what
else do you know? I don''t have any rtions with the Jing Marquis manor."
"Xiuran, you don''t need to be that anxious. After all, the information I have on hand is still very little."
Murong Jingxuan said as the corner of his lips perked up. "Since that''s the case, just go back together
with me."
Xiuran knew he wasn''t Murong Jingxuan''s opponent. When he looked to Murong Jingxuan, he had a
smile on his face, "Jingxuan, we''ve known each other for more than five years. Can''t you, for my sake,
let go of the entire Jing Marquis manor?"
Murong Jingxuan stared at Xiuran for quite awhile, before finally nodding. "I won''t implicate the Jing
Marquis manor because of you." He said as he signaled for Fengqing to take Xiuran away.
"Jingxuan, I feel Miss Su isn''t a simple person. You best don''t get too close with her." When Xiuran was
being taken away, he softly whispered by Murong Jingxuan''s ear.
When Murong Jingxuan heard his words, a smile bloomed on his lips. His little Yan''er naturally wasn''t a
simple person.
She was a woman, who possessed great wisdom and knowledge, that can make the entire world
tremble.
After Hongjia Emperor listened to Murong Jingxuan give a report on the matter, he ordered someone to
end the Dragon Gate Banquet. He''d never imagined that the mastermind behind the matter was
actually Xiuran.
Thus the Dragon Gate Banquet ended in a panicked state amidst an assassination attempt. Qilian
Yuran was sent back to her Guan Ju pce by Hongjia Emperor''s people, and the other families were
all sent out of the pce. Only Su Yun and Luo Bing, as well as the various high officials were left
behind.
Qingyan sat in the horse carriage watching the pce gates gradually getting further away. A smile
outlined on her lips.
Xiuran, don''t worry. Soon, I''ll have Qilian Qingyi be reunited with you, let the two of you be a pair of
lovebirds in hell.
"Big sister, did the wound on your body split open again?" Hearing Su Qingxue''s voice, Qingyan
lowered her head to look at the previously bandaged area. Her chest had indeed been dyed with bits of
scarlet.
Her hand slowly rested on the wound. It didn''t hurt at all here, because right now, she only had a rotting
heart left.
For the sake of revenge, for the sake of returning to Nanchen once again, she can pay any price. Even
if this price will send her to hell, she will endure it dly.
