Luo Lingyue received a letter from Jian Hun on her way back to Nanyi. She quickly unfolded the letter, glanced through it hastily, and her face became a little gloomy.

Xiao Jinghan noticed her change in expression and asked nervously, "What happened?"

Luo Lingyue's eyes flickered slightly, and she answered evasively, "Mu San helped the Li sisters sterilize the prince!"

After hearing this, Xiao Jinghan showed a hint of surprise on his face, but soon returned to normal.

He smiled and said, "Mr. Mu is truly a ruthless man! But it's all good this way. The King of Qin will have fewer troubles in the future. How can a prince who can't produce children become emperor? Haha! Your deputy leader is truly a talent!"

Luo Lingyue frowned and said with a determined look, "I'm afraid something major is about to happen in the capital. We must speed up the process of recovering Nanyi. We can't delay any longer!"

Xiao Jinghan looked at Luo Lingyue's serious expression and solemn tone, and knew in his heart that she had something else to say.

Xiao Jinghan's eyes instantly turned cold and ruthless. He clenched his fists tightly and said in a low and firm voice: "It's time to completely solve this troublesome Xiao Jingyi! We will return to Nanyi immediately and take action!"

They decided to set off immediately and rush back to Nanyi as quickly as possible. Along the way, they discussed their response strategy.

Xiao Jingyi sat in his study, holding a military book in his hand, his eyes occasionally glancing out the window. He felt a little uneasy because he had received news that Xiao Jinghan had returned to the city, but he had not seen them return to the palace yet. This made him very confused and worried.

Suddenly, a burst of hurried footsteps was heard, and a guard hurried into the study. After saluting Xiao Jingyi, he said, "Marshal! Prince Wu'an and the princess did not return to the palace, but went to Shen Xu's residence!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jingyi frowned, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes. He put down the military book in his hand, stood up, walked to the window, looked at the sky in the distance, and after thinking for a moment, asked, "Why are they going there?"

The guard lowered his head and replied, "I don't know, but according to our people's report, Prince Wu'an and the Princess seem very anxious!"

Xiao Jingyi sneered, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes: "Going to the house of an old immortal who is about to enter the coffin, humph! Does he still expect that old immortal to help him?"

The guards didn't dare to say much, but just stood quietly by, waiting for Xiao Jingyi's instructions.

Xiao Jingyi turned around and sat back at the desk, tapping his fingers lightly on the table, thinking about his next move. He knew Shen Xu's influence very well. If Xiao Jinghan got his support, it would be a huge threat to him.

After a while, Xiao Jingyi raised his head and said to the guards, "Continue to send people to monitor their movements and report any situation to me immediately. Also, find out what they are trying to do and whether they have any conspiracy."

The guard nodded in agreement and then withdrew. Xiao Jingyi picked up the military book again and tried to calm down, but the doubts and worries in his heart still lingered.

While comforting himself, he secretly thought: Humph, that old guy Shen Xu has been poisoned by me, he won’t live long! He hasn’t had any contact with the generals of the Xiao family army in the past few years. What can he do to help Xiao Jinghan?! Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but feel a little proud.

If I had known this earlier, I should have poisoned him a few years ago and let him die sooner, instead of letting him live for so many extra years!

At this time, Xiao Jinghan, Luo Lingyue, Xi Ruming and his group had just arrived at the Shen Mansion and rushed to General Shen's room without stopping.

Shang Lu and Xiao Xiao had been waiting by General Shen's bedside, their expressions solemn. When they saw Xiao Jinghan and the others arrive, Shang Lu immediately stood up, clasped his fists and saluted, and reported to Xiao Jinghan, "Master, Master's Wife, Dr. Xi! General Shen is very deeply poisoned!"

Xi Ruming hurried forward to check the situation and said to everyone, "Leave General Shen to me! Go to the outer room to discuss things. Remember, no one is allowed to come in without my permission. I need to concentrate on detoxifying General Shen!"

Xiao Jinghan and the others went directly to the outer room. Xiao Xiao said with a smug look on his face, "I have already eliminated all of Xiao Jingyi's secret agents in the Shen Mansion!"

Shang Lu then said, "In the Xiao family army, Shang Zhi and the Black Sword Team have already taken control of Xiao Jingyi's confidants! Du Zhong, his brothers and the Black Hawk Team are lying in ambush at the palace and can capture Xiao Jingyi at any time!"

Hearing this, Xiao Jinghan frowned slightly and said with some concern: "Xiao Jingyi is very skilled in martial arts, so don't attack him forcefully! Otherwise, unnecessary casualties will be caused."

Shang Lu took out half a tiger talisman from his arms, handed it to Xiao Jinghan, and said with a smile: "This is the half tiger talisman that the ghost hand stole from Xiao Jingyi!"

Xiao Jinghan took the tiger talisman, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he exclaimed: "The ghost hand is really powerful!" He knew the importance of this half tiger talisman. With it, they would be able to take more initiative.

An unfathomable smile appeared on Luo Lingyue's lips. She reached out and took out the half tiger talisman from her bosom and handed it to Xiao Jinghan.

Xiao Jinghan's eyes froze, and he seemed frozen in place. After a moment, he came back to his senses, his eyes filled with astonishment and confusion: "This half tiger talisman... I clearly remember giving it to Emperor Wen!"

Luo Lingyue sneered, a hint of sarcasm in her tone: "Humph, we worked so hard to trick Xiao Jingyi into giving away half a tiger talisman from that old bastard Emperor Wen so easily! What we handed over was just a fake one!"

Xiao Jinghan stared at her with eyes wide open in disbelief, a speechless expression on his face: "You...you actually dared to deceive Emperor Wen, this is a crime of deceiving the emperor!"

Luo Lingyue curled her lips indifferently and said nonchalantly, "A general on the battlefield is not subject to military orders! What's more, the emperor is far away in the capital and has no control over us! Don't worry, that fake tiger talisman is very realistic, he will definitely not be able to tell it's fake!"

Xiao Xiao looked at Xiao Jinghan with a determined gaze and said, "Prince Xiao, many of the families of Nanyi's generals are controlled by Xiao Jingyi. It would be difficult to get them to rebel against Xiao Jingyi!"

Xiao Jinghan raised his eyebrows and said in a cold tone: "These families have all been rescued by my people and placed in a safe place!"

After hearing this, Xiao Xiao's eyes flashed with surprise. She hadn't expected Xiao Jinghan to have such powerful strength and means. Being able to quietly rescue all the families under Xiao Jingyi's nose, it seemed that Xiao Jinghan had already started planning!

Xiao Xiao suddenly bent her knees, plopped down on the ground, and begged in a tearful voice, "Prince Xiao! This time when the evil villain is punished, can I be present too? I want to see him die with my own eyes!"

Xiao Jinghan frowned and said in a deep voice, "Xiao Xiao! Xiao Jingyi owes your father a life! I promise you that when the time comes, I will publicly try him! I will also report this matter to the court and vindicate your father! Then, you can live on in Nanyi as the descendant of a loyal minister!"
