These people were the Imperial Army! Was this how they protected their Emperor?
GongYimo sneered, "I'll throw the child out after I go in! Try saying 'no' if you dare! "
She glanced at him with a cold expression. The Imperial Army leader wanted to say something, but he couldn't. He stepped back in fear and watched GongYimo stride in!
It wasn't that Gong Yi Mo couldn't force them to go in and look for Si Wuyan, but she knew that if these people went in, Si Wuyan wouldn't have any way to survive. Once they found Si Wuyan, they would kill him and claim that he was long dead. Dead men tell no tales, so she could only come in and look for him herself!
Wasn't it just a sea of fire? There was nothing to be afraid of!
She passed through layers of guards and got closer to the flames. Before she stepped into the sea of fire, she was stopped by a pair of crossed spears.
The Imperial Army leader didn't dare to approach and only spoke from afar.
"Princess, hand over the child! We'll let you go in! "
GongYimo smiled. She didn't want to be entangled, so she really threw the child out!
At this moment, everyone's eyes followed the small figure that was thrown out. Finally, someone with excellent qinggong carefully caught the child. When they turned back, GongYimo had already disappeared into the sea of fire …
She really went in!

Dong Luanyi raised Shang Mingxi's face with a strange expression, "Do you really want to return to Aijia's side?" Her tone was teasing.
Shang Mingxi raised his head and smiled. This smile was just like when he was by her side, gentle and clean. It was obviously an ordinary face, but when he smiled, it seemed to glow. It was hard to dislike him.
Dong Luanyi's face suddenly darkened. She stood up straight and looked down at him with a cold smile.
"The little Emperor is dead. You don't have anyone to rely on, so you want to come back? Shang Mingxi, when you were by Aijia's side, you were always like this. I didn't expect you to still be like this. "
Shang Mingxi knelt up straight.
"A good bird breaks a tree to perch. I'm just judging the situation."
The Empress Dowager snorted, and her eyes were cold. "What a good judge of the situation. You abandoned your old master without a word and got together with your new master. Now that your new master is dead, you want to return to your old master's side. What a straightforward person. What a cruel heart!"
Shang Mingxi smiled but didn't say anything. It was as if he wasn't the one being insulted. Well, this bit of humiliation was nothing to him.
His lukewarm attitude greatly provoked Dong Luanyi. She couldn't help but say angrily, "When did I ever let you down?! You want to betray me? Don't you find it ironic that you're back now? "
Shang Mingxi looked at her furrowed brows and smiled faintly. He asked seriously, "Can I return to your side after being scolded by you?"
Being stared at like this, Dong Luanyi, who was in her thirties, blushed. It was hard to tell whether she was angry or angry!
Lan Ci saw that the situation was not good and quickly stepped forward. "Shang Mingxi, do you know what it means to be shameless?"
He felt that the situation was out of control. The Empress Dowager obviously still had feelings for this man!
Shang Mingxi remained calm in the face of Lan Ci's humiliation.
"Are you afraid that you won't be able to keep your position when I come back?"
"You!"
Lan Ci was infuriated. She stepped forward and lifted Shang Mingxi up by his collar!
"You want to come back, right? But do you think a traitor like you can come back just because you say so? It seems that I have to teach you the rules! "
He glanced at the Empress Dowager's eyes and found that she had acquiesced. It was obvious that the Empress Dowager also felt that she couldn't let Shang Mingxi off so easily.
"You should be taken away and taught a good lesson!" She snorted coldly.
Lan Ci became even more excited. She dragged Shang Mingxi by his collar and was about to walk out. But when she turned around, Shang Mingxi suddenly pulled out the gorgeous sword at Lan Ci's waist and stabbed it into his chest!
Dong Luanyi's cry of surprise rang in his ears. The two men faced each other, one with the same expression and the other with eyes full of fear!
Shang Mingxi … actually dared to kill him?
Before he could think too much, Shang Mingxi suddenly moved closer and spoke in a somewhat seductive voice …
"I'm back. As a substitute, it's time for you to retire …"
As he spoke, he pushed Lan Ci to the ground with his sword, leaving behind a panicked crowd. Even Dong Luanyi didn't expect Shang Mingxi to kill Lan Ci!
"Shang Mingxi! Are you crazy? Who allowed you to commit murder?! "
The Empress Dowager roared. A middle-aged man appeared beside her like a ghost. He was the Empress Dowager's protector and was sometimes sent out to carry out other tasks.
Shang Mingxi's right hand was covered in blood.
Just now, he had stabbed it so deeply that it had directly pierced through Lan Ci. His clean robe and white jade-like fingertips were stained with blood.
He took out a handkerchief to wipe his clean left hand, but his eyes were smiling as he looked at the frightened Dong Luanyi.
"If I don't kill him, there's no place beside you that I want."
His words stunned Dong Luanyi. Indeed, she doted on Lan Ci the most because Lan Ci was gentle and attentive. Her personality was very similar to Shang Mingxi's … It wasn't wrong to say that he was a substitute.
But what Shang Mingxi meant was that Lan Ci had taken his place, so he used such a method to get rid of the obstacle.
His audacity should be very repulsive, but because he was the one who did it, Dong Luanyi couldn't feel a trace of anger. She was even surprised? This was Shang Mingxi! The man she liked!
Even though she was ten years older than him, no one would dislike Shang Mingxi after interacting with him. He was gentle and attentive, used to being submissive, and smooth in dealing with people. However, he was truly ruthless and heartless, which made him even more fascinating.
"What do you want?" Dong Luanyi was used to being domineering. Even though her tone was fierce, what she said was asking for his opinion.
Shang Mingxi smiled. Against the light, he was bathed in a halo by the sunlight. No one dared to look directly at him.
The Hidden Dragon Palace was the Empress Dowager's residence. Now that it had been burned down, they were now in another palace. The little prince was also here. Shang Mingxi only found out the reason the Empress Dowager had taken action when he arrived here. It was because His Majesty had a child.
When Shang Mingxi stepped forward, Dong Luanyi retreated. However, she didn't speak, so the people protecting her didn't move either. They allowed Shang Mingxi to grab her hand.
"Let's go. Let's go see the child."
Dong Luanyi wanted to withdraw her hand in fear, but Shang Mingxi, who was close by, showed a strong aggressiveness. This was a completely different change from usual. Dong Luanyi actually forgot to resist.
Before Dong Luanyi could understand what he meant, Shang Mingxi whispered into her ear.
"After seeing the child, I'll also let you see me, okay?"
This was a naked invitation. Under Shang Mingxi's smiling gaze, this woman, who was famous for being ruthless and heartless, actually felt shy and allowed him to pull her away.
