Only after being reborn did I realize that I was the white moonlight of a powerful minister.

Chapter 107 "Good"

As dawn approached, the Ye family would arrive, and Qingshan did not want to see his master clash with them.

He had never fallen in love and didn't understand why his master was so persistent, but Si Yan said that they would follow whatever their master did. After all, their lives were given to them by their master, and whether they died sooner or later was the same, so there was no need to worry about the length of the journey.

When Miss Ye's body was recovered, the master was still investigating the matter of the deposed crown prince. It wasn't until Miss Ye was buried that he learned about this.

Qingshan witnessed the opening of the coffin that day; Miss Ye's body was completely disfigured, unrecognizable from her original appearance. The corpse, having been soaked in the river, emitted a foul odor, but only the master remained, watching and refusing to leave.

"Sir, we should go now," Qingshan reminded him again.

Xie Bohuai then turned to leave, but just as he was about to mount his horse, a group of assassins suddenly appeared from all around.

"Xie Bohuai, you control the government and plot a rebellion; you deserve to die!" the assassins said, and they rushed towards Xie Bohuai.

There were forty or fifty people who came. Even though Xie Bohuai and Qingshan were skilled in martial arts, they were quickly at a disadvantage.

But Xie Bohuai did not back down. Looking at the destroyed offerings, all he could see were corpses. "You're all asking for death!"

Xie Bohuai wielded his sword like lightning, swiftly dispatching three men before facing his enemies back-to-back with Qingshan.

"Sir, you go first!" Qingshan said.

"Why would they run away? They're the ones who came here to die!" Xie Bohuai said, then charged forward again, heading straight for the assassin who had spoken earlier. In just a few moves, Xie Bohuai slit the assassin's throat.

A ragtag bunch.

Xie Bohuai realized that the opponents had no formation and did not seem to be well-trained assassins. He defeated them one by one and quickly killed half of them.

Of course, he also had wounds of various sizes on his body.

"Who encouraged you to come? Don't be someone else's pawns and think you're doing the right thing!" Xie Bohuai squinted at the remaining people. "With just a few of you, you think you can take my life? You're all here to die!"

The assassins looked at their fallen comrades, some of whom carried heavy responsibilities, and their eyes were filled with fear as they looked at Xie Bohuai.

Is that human being?

Everyone says Xie Bohuai is capricious and a madman, and now it seems that's really true. Because Xie Bohuai isn't afraid of death at all; on the contrary, he even laughed.

"No one's going to speak?" Xie Bohuai's thin lips curled up slightly. "Then all of you, die!"

He took the initiative to enter the palace, catching everyone off guard.

Just then, the servants from the Ye family who had left earlier arrived. When the assassin saw the approaching figures, he realized he had to retreat.

Xie Bohuai and Qingshan each captured one of the prisoners. Xie Bohuai pointed his sword at one of their eyes and demanded, "Tell me, who sent you?"

"I...I don't know."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Xie Bohuai thrust his sword down, and a scream echoed through the sky, terrifying the other man so much that he wet himself.

“I…I said, it was Prince Jing who sent us.”

"Oh, is that so?" Xie Bohuai lifted the man onto his horse, looked at the mess on the ground, and when he met the eyes of the Ye family steward, he felt a little apologetic. "Qingshan, you stay and clean up."

The steward dared not let Xie Bohuai's men stay. Even though he had a lot of complaints in his heart, he didn't dare to trouble Xie Bohuai's men. "No need, no need, we can do it ourselves. Lord Xie, you can see that so many people are watching you. Please let us go."

As soon as he finished speaking, the steward felt a chill run down his spine. This was Xie Bohuai, second only to the emperor, and no one dared to offend him.

After a long while, Xie Bohuai turned his gaze away from Ye Wanning's tombstone and uttered a desolate sentence, "Okay."
