In the grand hall.
Gu Xingchuan still knelt on the ground, motionless.
His heart set on death.
Xiao Jinxing, with a cold voice, said, "This prince has had a tiring journey and feels sleepy, Xiao Wu, attend to me as I rest."
"Yes."
Xiao Wu had no choice but to comply with reverence.
Xiao Jinxing left the grand hall first.
The few that remained.
Xiao Hezhen wanted to come forward and help Gu Xingchuan up.
Thankfully her brother hadn't actually ordered Gu Xingchuan's death.
Otherwise, she would have fought against her brother to the bitter end.
Wu Xufan tightened his grip on Xiao Hezhen's hand, shaking his head at her.
Xiao Hezhen's eyes turned red as she looked at Wu Xufan.
Wu Xufan didn't offer much explanation and pulled Xiao Hezhen directly out of the grand hall.
Song Yanqing also watched Gu Xingchuan kneeling on the ground.
Suppressing his body, which seemed to tremble incessantly.
He deeply understood the pain of losing a loved one.
Truly understood.
