  The scene of two people covered in blood in the room shocked everyone outside. For a moment, their expressions froze.

  Chu Fengxuan thought about the last time he saw Xiao Bai. He seemed so alive, his voice, his appearance and his smile were still vivid in his mind. But in the blink of an eye, he was lying there with his eyes closed. The blood gushing out of his mouth blurred half of his face.

  Chu Fengxuan couldn't believe it. He refused to believe what he saw. His heart ached and his throat felt sour. An inexplicable fear gripped his heart. He even felt like his feet were filled with lead. He didn't dare to go in or touch Xiaobai's body.

  Xu Ling'an and Xie Hongyuan, who were standing at the back, looked at each other and were extremely shocked. They probably never expected this would be the outcome.

  None of them had ever thought that the Second Prince Chu Yan would choose to commit suicide by taking poison and drag Xiao Bai to die with him.

  Xu Ling'an's body swayed slightly. Chu Fengjuan was standing in the middle of the door. At this time, Xu Ling'an's mind and eyes were only on someone in the room. He moved forward and bumped into Chu Fengjuan's shoulder. Chu Fengjuan glanced at Xu Ling'an in surprise, but Xu Ling'an didn't even look at him. He crossed the threshold in front of him with his long legs. From his figure and steps, it was obvious that he was walking towards the bed in a very solemn manner.

  There was a faint smell of sandalwood floating in the room, and it was self-evident what it indicated.

  The two people on the couch had messy clothes. The one who was held in Chu Yan's arms had two slender legs exposed. Xu Ling'an walked to the outside of the bed and slowly bent down. There was silence all around, and everyone almost held their breath. The palace guards surrounded Chu Yan's bedroom. The soldiers outside the room saw Chu Fengjuan's tall figure standing in the middle of the door, but there was no sign of him moving to enter the room for a long time. Although some people became more and more curious, they just lowered their eyes, not looking at what they shouldn't look at, and not listening to what they shouldn't listen to.

  Xu Ling'an stretched out his arm and pried open Chu Yan's hands that were around Xiaobai's back. He picked up Xiaobai's body and walked towards the door.

  The person at the door looked straight at the person in his arms. Xu Ling'an felt the body in his arms getting a little cold. He put Xiaobai down, took off his outer clothes, and wrapped it around Xiaobai.

  When he reached the threshold, Xu Ling'an raised his head and met Chu Fengxuan's cold gaze, and there was a coldness and hardness in his voice that he had never heard before.

  "Your Highness, please make way." There was cold hostility in the depths of Xu Ling'an's eyes. Chu Fengxuan's eyes trembled for a moment, and his gaze moved down little by little, falling on Xiao Bai's face stained with scarlet blood. He felt that the blood was too glaring, so he reached out and wanted to wipe it off.

  Xu Ling'an's eyes flashed, and he took a half step back with the person in his arms, so Chu Fengxuan's hand touched nothing and remained suspended in mid-air.

  "...The Emperor must still be waiting for Your Highness in the palace. Your Highness should not confuse the urgency of the matter. Or do you hope to let His Majesty know about Fu Yue's existence so that Fu Yue can't die in peace?" These words sounded threatening, but Xu Ling'an no longer cared about the etiquette between the monarch and his subjects. In his eyes, although it was Chu Yan who directly poisoned Xiao Bai to death, it was Chu Fengjian who forced Xiao Bai to this point step by step.

  Chu Fengxuan's arms fell down weakly. His heart was aching and he felt like he could hardly breathe.

  He never thought that Xiao Bai would die. He had deceived himself for a while, but it turned out that the other party had entered his heart without knowing when. He was the one who indirectly killed Xiao Bai. Chu Fengxuan lifted his heavy feet, turned around, and made way for the door.
