That night, Haitang made up for her regrets.

Gu Qianbei looked at the sleeping beauty in his arms and smiled faintly.

I was really exhausted last night.

Having just broken through, Haitang was brimming with energy. If Gu Qianbei hadn't had a strong foundation, she probably would have been defeated as well.

Fortunately, they won in the end.

The incident happened very suddenly, but Gu Qianbei did not refuse.

He has always had a good impression of Haitang.

After all, the childhood nostalgia factor is still very strong.

He had also lamented the other person's fate.

But with him around now, it's natural that Haitang won't be allowed to end up like that again.

When the first rays of morning sunlight shone on Haitang's eyebrows and eyes, she frowned slightly, then opened her beautiful big eyes.

Looking at the somewhat unfamiliar room, her mind went blank for a moment, but she quickly recalled everything from last night.

That was a crazy night.

It was so crazy that she still blushes when she thinks about it now.

So this is what relationships between men and women are like.

You'll never understand the intricacies of something without putting it into practice.

Haitang put it into practice very thoroughly.

Gu Qianbei was no longer on the bed, and Haitang felt a little disappointed.

Where did you go?

After a night of passion, did you regret it?

Haitang bit her lip slightly, looking somewhat disappointed.

Is he dissatisfied with what happened last night?

But she has already tried her best.

With a creak, the door opened.

Gu Qianbei, dressed in a green robe, walked in.

"woke up?"

When Haitang saw Gu Qianbei, her eyes lit up.

"Where did you go?"

"I was hungry, so I made some food. I was so busy last night, I need to replenish my energy."

Haitang blushed again.

What kind of outrageous and inhumane words are these?

She was usually a carefree person, but after being told that, she suddenly became a little shy.

"Now that you're awake, let's eat together."

I made some soup, and it tasted pretty good.

Haitang naturally wouldn't refuse Gu Qianbei's warm invitation.

"it is good."

The two of them enjoyed their breakfast very much.

Just as the atmosphere was getting intimate, someone walked in.

"Begonia!"

Guihai Yidao rushed in, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Haitang was safe and sound.

"Yidao, what brings you here?"

Haitang said unexpectedly.

"I ran into Tianya this morning and heard that you were injured, so I rushed over."

"The Karasuma's Fire Cloud Blade is no ordinary weapon; have you healed it?"

Guihai Yidao asked with concern.

"I'm alright now. Thanks to Qianbei, I'm safe and sound."

I'll go back and tell my godfather what happened last night.

The Izumo mission at the embassy needs to be dealt with immediately.

As Haitang spoke, she became serious.

"You don't need to worry about the Izumo mission."

Last night, after Tianya escorted the Empress Dowager back to the palace, His Majesty was furious and dispatched the Eastern Depot to raid the embassy.

Karasuma and Princess Toshihide were frozen in ice; when they were found, they were already dead.

"He's stopped breathing?"

Haitang looked at Gu Qianbei in surprise, and Gu Qianbei also frowned slightly.

"The chill I unleashed yesterday should have only frozen them; given their cultivation level, they shouldn't have died."

Have their bodies been examined? What was the cause of death?

Guihai Yidao shook his head and said, "I'm not too clear on the specifics either."

He rushed over immediately upon hearing the news of Haitang's injury, unaware of the cause of death of the two men.

"It doesn't matter if they die. Kidnapping the Empress Dowager is a capital offense anyway. His Majesty won't blame you for this."

Even if you save the Empress Dowager, he still has to thank you.

Haitang thought Gu Qianbei was worried about the emperor's anger, so she immediately comforted him.

Gu Qianbei shook her head slightly.

"No, that's not what I'm worried about. I have absolute confidence in my ability to control the situation."

This situation indicates that someone is acting behind the scenes again.

Clearly, after we left, someone went to the embassy again and secretly assassinated the two men.

"Let's go see if Princess Rixiu and Karasuma are corpses; perhaps we'll find the answer."

"Okay, let's go take a look. The investigation into this case isn't over yet; it's time to get all the issues sorted out."

If there really is someone behind this, they must be found.

Haitang nodded in agreement.

"Haitang, you've just recovered from your serious injuries, so don't worry about this case. Let me handle it."

Guihai Yidao said earnestly.

His love for Haitang was always hidden in his heart. Although he never said it, his feelings could be seen from his actions.

Unfortunately, Haitang will never have any emotional entanglement with him again in this lifetime.

"No need, I'm fine now. This is a task that my godfather assigned to my older brother and me, how could I ignore it?"

"Let's go, have a thousand cups!"

"it is good."

Haitang took Gu Qianbei's hand and left Qianchousi.

Seeing the two's intimate actions, Guihai Yidao frowned slightly.

"The way they address each other has changed, and their actions have become more intimate. When did their relationship become so close?"

Guihai Yidao didn't understand.

He just felt as if something had drifted away from him.

This feeling made him very unhappy, but there was nothing he could do about it.

Finally, he shook his head and followed.

No matter what, he wanted to stay by Haitang's side, even if he could only watch her from afar.

Inside the morgue.

Gu Qianbei and Haitang are examining the bodies of Princess Lixiu and Wuhuan.

"I never imagined that Princess Lixiu was actually a man. What kind of martial art is this? How can it transform a man into such a beautiful woman?"

Haitang was very curious.

"It is said that there is a martial art in the Western Regions called the Formless Divine Skill. After mastering it, one will lose one's facial features and become unrecognizable."

However, one can shape their facial features with their own internal energy, so that ordinary people cannot see anything wrong with them.

Princess Rixiu must have practiced similar martial arts.

"The Formless Divine Skill? There is such a bizarre martial art in this world."

"That's not right. According to our intelligence from the Dragon Guard Manor, Princess Lixiu should never have practiced martial arts."

"That means he's not Princess Rixiu, but an imposter."

"You mean, the entire Izumo delegation is problematic? They might not even be part of the Izumo delegation?"

"That's right. Otherwise, there would be no reason for Izumo to do this."

They originally sent a princess to marry into a foreign power, but this incident—a man dressed as a woman and the kidnapping of the Empress Dowager—was a great insult to the Ming Dynasty.

They must be crazy to do something so risky and with such low returns.

Haitang nodded slightly.

"You're right. I'll go back and use the intelligence network of the Dragon Guard Manor to investigate thoroughly and see what's going on."

"Did you figure out how Princess Rishou and Karasuma died?"

"They died of the cold."

"So, he died from the force of your punch?"

Gu Qianbei shook his head.

"No. What killed them was the chill, not the chill of my Heavenly Frost Fist."

The chill of the Heavenly Frost Fist was upright and honorable, yet this chill was filled with a sinister feeling.

Someone intervened a second time, which is how they were killed.
