The soldiers carried out all the bodies, one, two... and placed them neatly in the atrium. Soon, the huge atrium was filled with corpses.

All 500 people in the palace, from the prince and princess to the servants, were killed, without any escape.

Looking at the corpses all over the yard, Zhong Suhan, who had seen mountains of corpses and seas of blood, also gasped.

This matter was of great importance, and Zhong Suhan did not dare to delay. After confirming that no one was alive, he immediately went to the palace to meet Wen Yubai.

Wen Yubai was also afraid that something unexpected might happen tonight, so he hadn't gone to bed. He paced back and forth in the study room with the heater in his arms. When he heard the news that Zhong Suhan had arrived, he immediately asked Huang Zhong to bring him over.

"Your Majesty, the prince's mansion was wiped out." Zhong Suhan briefly explained what happened, "When the bid was made, all 500 people died without a single survivor."

Wen Yubai was stunned and confirmed: "Are they all dead?"

"Yes, they are all dead. I checked their wounds. Some were murdered, and some committed suicide. It's very strange."

The first thing that came to Zhong Suhan's mind was evil thoughts. She couldn't think of anyone else except him who could manipulate such a large-scale mass death incident.

But there is no evidence.

Gao Ya Ge went to return the body to Zhong Su Han in the morning, but the body was dead in the evening. It seemed that Zhong Su Han was the culprit. Then she pretended to be an arrester and found out that all 500 people in the palace were dead.

So, who wants to frame Zhong Suhan?

When Wen Yubai thought about it carefully, Zhong Su Nuan's name immediately came to his mind. Before he could think further, the itching deep in his throat made him cough violently, and the sound was heart-wrenching.

"Your Majesty?" Zhong Suhan saw that he was coughing so hard that he had to hold on to the corner of the table to avoid squatting on the ground. The panic in his heart showed on his face. He reached out and wanted to help the man into his arms, but Huang Ying was quicker and helped him sit in a chair wrapped in warm cotton.

Huang Ying patted the man's back skillfully and took the hot tea handed to him by other palace servants skillfully. When the man's cough had improved, she immediately fed him the tea and changed the blood-stained handkerchief on his hand.

There were many palace servants serving Wen Yubai, some bringing hot tea, some bringing basins, some bringing hot water bottles...

Zhong Suhan was squeezed to the periphery. He watched him cough until tears came out and his handkerchief was soaked with blood. He could do nothing but stand there numbly.

The hands holding the little rabbit were shaking, and the body was stiff with fear of losing him.

Wen Yubai, who had recovered, saw Zhong Suhan's expression through the crowd and couldn't help but laugh at himself.

This guy is really a born liar. Judging from his expression, he almost became self-indulgent and thought that the other person cared about him and that he was very important.

"Captain Zhong, there is no need for that expression. I will not die anytime soon. It is an old illness."

Ever since he was abducted by a group of southern barbarians in the Great Black Mountain more than ten years ago, he has been coughing every year at this time of year. In recent years, his health has been getting worse and worse, and coughing up blood has become commonplace.

Wen Yubai knew clearly that he was at the end of his strength and would not survive this winter.

Therefore, Zhong Suran and all his minions must be eliminated before the end of this winter to provide Captain Zhong with a safe environment.

Witnessing him coughing so severely, Zhong Suhan couldn't say any words to comfort or reassure him, let alone ask him to take care of himself.

"Well, Captain Zhong has worked hard tonight, go back and rest early, the morning court will be a tough battle."

Wen Yubai smiled and waved, asking Huang Zhong to send the man out.

He ordered everyone to leave, so Zhong Suhan had no choice but to follow Huang Zhong out. When he stepped out of the palace gate, he couldn't help but look back.

The young man was skinny as a bone, with bulging clothes on his body, making his head look small and his body fat. When the blush on his face faded, he looked even paler.

Obviously... he was not like this ten years ago.

Zhong Suhan still remembered how high-spirited he was when they first met. Even though he was sitting in a shabby military tent, he was so noble and calm, making the tent look like a king's palace.

This was the first time that Wen Yubai saw such obvious sadness in her eyes. He smiled and waved to her, allowing her to leave with peace of mind.

"Captain Zhong, let's go. His Majesty will rest only if you leave."

Zhong Suhan turned and left. Looking at the silver frost on the ground, he couldn't help but redden his eyes. His heart ached so much, it felt like the pain was not his own.

"Your Majesty's affairs are not something that people like us can interfere with." Huang Zhong suddenly said, "But I really feel sorry for your Majesty. If my next words offend Captain Zhong, please forgive me."

He said, "Captain Zhong, if you don't have the emperor in your heart, I beg you to stop showing that you have the emperor in your heart. He has offered his true heart to you time and time again, and you have repeatedly thrown it to the ground, not only that, but you also stepped on it. That's fine, but he doesn't want to offer it anymore, but you still tempt him to offer it. I feel sad when I see this, please don't torture him anymore."

It turns out that I have gone too far and even Huang Zhong can’t stand it anymore?

Zhong Suhan smiled self-deprecatingly, responded in a low voice and walked out of the imperial city. Didn't she also want to take his heart and protect it well?

She couldn't afford the gamble, nor could she forget her sister's tragic death or her original purpose.

The tears dried up and could not flow out. The depression in my heart turned into snow-white and fell on my hair, and even turned into unmeltable ice and condensed in my eyes.

Love has always hurt people. Ming Qiu watched her suffer, but he was powerless and could only remain silent.

It was really useless, it thought.

……

At the suggestion of Zhong Suhan, the morning court of Yan State was changed to noon time a few years ago. As Wen Yubai works at home, he can still sleep for a few hours.

Perhaps he was very satisfied with Zhong Suhan's performance, so he had a rare and comfortable sleep, even if it was only for a few hours.

Sitting on the high dragon throne, he carefully looked at the expressions on everyone's faces. Gao Ya Ge's father had red eyes, and it seemed that he had already known the news that Gao Ya Ge had been killed. The other ministers had different expressions.

His eyes scanned the entire room and finally fell on Zhong Suhan. His pupils constricted and he clenched his fingers on the faucet armrests tightly, using all his strength to suppress the urge to move forward.

In just one night, her hair turned from jet black to snow-white.

Wen Yubai adjusted his breathing several times, and finally started coughing again. Fortunately, the hall was warm, so he didn't cough for a long time. He gritted his teeth and made himself not look in the direction of the man. He just asked, "Why didn't the Prime Minister come today?"

"The Prime Minister just sent someone to say that he suddenly felt unwell during the morning court session. He was so weak that he collapsed on the bed and could not attend the court session. He has asked for leave."

As Huang Zhong spoke, he quietly looked at Zhong Suhan's expression, only to see that the other party did not move, and his expression was as cold as if he was another person. He secretly felt lucky that the other party had listened to his words, and his eyes inadvertently fell on Gao Ya Ge's father - Gao Fenglan.

Without waiting for Wen Yunqing to say anything, Gao Fenglan left the team without any restraint, then knelt down in front of the dragon throne, crying out in tears: "Your Majesty, please help my Gao family!"
