Started from listening to music in the brothel and earned billions of bad people

Hearing this, Qing Meng was struck by lightning, and her entire body froze in place. She had never imagined that Guo Jian would apologize to Li Xingyun so directly, and even act so humbly. This was completely different from her previous impression of Guo Jian. She had always thought of him as an upright and loyal man. How could he suddenly become like this?

Qing Meng felt dizzy, unable to accept this cruel reality. She stared at Li Xingyun with eyes wide open, her face filled with disbelief.

Li Xingyun noticed Qing Meng's reaction. He smiled slightly, then looked at Qing Meng in his arms and softly instructed Guo Jian, "Well, in that case, General Guo, please get out of the way."

Upon hearing this, Guo Jian immediately responded, "Yes! Your Highness!" His voice was still low and respectful. He then lowered his head and slowly stepped out of the carriage, his movements appearing a little stiff.

Watching Guo Jian leave, Qing Meng's heart was filled with disappointment and confusion. She couldn't understand why Guo Jian was like this. And at this moment, Li Xingyun's voice suddenly rang in her ears.

"What? Are you disappointed? I didn't expect that the commander of the imperial guards, whom you always thought was loyal, would be my man?" There was a hint of teasing in Li Xingyun's words, and he seemed very satisfied with Qing Meng's reaction.

"No...how could I be disappointed! I am happy! Happy!" Qing Meng's voice trembled slightly. She seemed to be frightened and quickly shook her head to deny it, as if she was afraid that Li Xingyun would not believe her.

However, Li Xingyun only smiled slightly. He seemed to have seen through Qing Meng's thoughts long ago and said softly, "Don't hide it. Everyone knows what happened to you in the carriage, but no one will tell anyone."

Qing Meng's face turned pale instantly, her eyes widened, her face full of disbelief. She never thought that her little tricks in the carriage would be so easily seen through by Li Xingyun.

The slow-witted Qing Meng finally began to recall the events that had occurred. The more she thought about it, the more she felt something was amiss, and a terrifying guess gradually formed in her mind. She couldn't help but open her mouth wide, her face filled with shock and fear, completely unable to believe this fact.

Li Xingyun ignored Qing Meng and turned around, his gaze fixed on the direction of the Shenwu City Palace. His eyes seemed to penetrate the palace walls and met Li Qiankun's gaze in the imperial study.

Meanwhile, Li Qiankun sat in the imperial study, a teacup tightly clutched in his hand. When he heard the news of Guo Jian's betrayal, his fury instantly ignited. His eyes widened, his face filled with rage, and the teacup in his hand instantly crumbled to dust.

Li Qiankun was so angry! He could never have imagined that one of his most trusted men would actually betray him. Even the rebellion of the East Factory and the Jinyiwei had never made him lose his composure like this.

Because the Imperial Guards were of great significance to Li Qiankun. They were the largest of the five major guardian forces of the Imperial City, and Guo Jian was one of Li Qiankun's most trusted men. He had always believed that Guo Jian was loyal to him, but now...

It was truly unexpected! Who could have imagined he would be so wrong? This was simply an insult to his judgment! How could he not be annoyed?

"Your Majesty, do you want to..." The little eunuch raised his head tremblingly and asked cautiously, as if he was afraid that he would say something wrong and anger Li Qiankun.

Li Qiankun glanced at the young eunuch expressionlessly, his eyes filled with complex emotions, a hint of pity and a hint of cruelty. His expression seemed particularly distorted, making it difficult to understand his true thoughts.

The young eunuch was frightened by Li Qiankun's eyes and trembled all over. He quickly lowered his head and dared not say another word.

After a moment's silence, Li Qiankun seemed to have finally made up his mind. He nodded heavily and waved to the young eunuch, indicating that he could go and carry out the order.

The young eunuch accepted the order immediately as if he had been pardoned, and quickly backed away from the imperial study to arrange the relevant matters according to Li Qiankun's instructions.

Meanwhile, in the darkness of Xuanwu Street, Li Xingmin was nervously watching Guo Jian emerge from his carriage. Seeing Guo Jian walk away as if nothing had happened, the weight of worry that had been hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground, but at the same time, he felt a wave of despair.

"Guo Jian! You really deserve to die!" Li Xingmin gritted his teeth and squeezed out these words fiercely from between his teeth, as if he wanted to vent all his anger.

Li Xingfeng, who was standing by, was surprised to see Li Xingmin's excited reaction. He looked at Li Xingmin puzzledly and asked, "Sixth Brother, what's wrong with you? Why are you reacting so strongly?"

Li Xingmin took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and then pretended to be calm and said: "Oh, nothing, maybe I'm too tired recently. You guys continue watching, I'll go back and rest for a while." After that, he turned around and left without looking back, leaving Li Xingfeng standing there with a confused look on his face.

"Haha... Interesting! Interesting!" Li Xingfan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile. His eyes were fixed on Li Xingmin's back as he walked away, as if at that moment, he saw something that interested him extremely.

Li Xingfeng, who was standing by, looked at Li Xingfan suspiciously and asked, "Third Brother? What happened to Sixth Brother? Why does he seem a little strange?"

Upon hearing this, Li Xingfan casually glanced at Li Xingfeng, secretly lamenting that his eighth brother seemed shrewd but was actually extremely foolish. His smile widened, but he didn't answer Li Xingfeng's question. Instead, he turned and walked straight towards Li Xingyun's carriage.

Li Xingfeng was increasingly confused upon seeing this. He hurried to catch up with Li Xingfan, anxiously calling out, "Third brother, wait for me! Where are you going?"

However, Li Xingfan seemed oblivious to him, his steps firm, with no intention of stopping. As Li Xingfan walked further and further away, Li Xingfeng grew increasingly panicked. He couldn't understand why things had become so bizarre in the blink of an eye.

"Third brother, where... where are you going?" There was a hint of confusion in Li Xingfeng's voice. He really didn't understand why Li Xingfan acted like this. This was totally unlike his usual style.

Li Xingfan finally stopped, but he did not look back. He just said lightly: "You have all taken action, so I naturally cannot fall behind." After that, he took another step forward, a little faster than before.

Li Xingfeng stood there, watching Li Xingfan's receding figure, his heart filled with helplessness and confusion. He couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Hey... Third Brother, what on earth are you talking about?"
