A rational analysis suggests that now is the best time to kill Lan Jingtang, before Yi Chenxuan and Lan Jingtang can make contact.
Lan Jingtang's cunning and scheming are extraordinary. Allowing him to run rampant is also cultivating a huge hidden danger for the future.
But Yi Chenli still did it.
A voice inside him was telling him that he should do it.
This was the first time Yi Chenli had made a decision not based on his own rationality, but solely on his emotions. As his relationship with An Yuan'er deepened, he was subtly influenced by her, and some of his feelings were absorbed into him. Yi Chenli gained a new humanity that he had never possessed before.
Years later, Yi Chenli recalled that choice he made that day.
To his surprise, what seemed like a wrong decision that day actually left him with the best "comrades-in-arms".
How can one distinguish friend from foe until the very last moment?
However, that's all in the future. At this moment, they had no idea what turbulent waves lay ahead.

The room was pitch black, with no lights on, but the faint sound of a girl sobbing could be heard.
The girl's sobs were muffled as she secretly wiped away her tears.
From the darkness came a man's sigh, a sigh tinged with helplessness and heartache.
“Round and chubby, you really have been crying since you were a baby, you’ve never changed this habit.”
Beneath the understated complaints lay a deeper sense of reluctance.
That familiar voice. She hadn't heard it for three days. Hearing it again, An Yuan'er felt as if she were dreaming.
She rushed excitedly to the boy in the wheelchair and hugged him tightly.
"Ah Li, Ah Li... is your leg any better?"
Yi Chenli helped An Yuan'er tidy up the quilt and gently pinched the girl's cute nose: "Since you care about me, why haven't you come to see me for three days?"
Yi Chenli's voice carried a hint of accusation.
"It was Lan Jingtang who said you need to rest and recuperate."
Yi Chenli looked at him with exasperation: "You're so stupid! You believe everything he says?"
Speaking of Lan Jingtang, An Yuan'er almost burst into tears again, having barely managed to hold them back.
An Yuan'er asked, puzzled, "Ali, why do people have to separate? Lan Jingtang chose to help Yi Chenxuan. I know Yi Chenxuan is not a good person, but I can't stop him."
If Yi Chenxuan were someone worth relying on and choosing, An Yuan'er might not be so sad.
But An Yuan'er could clearly see the evil in Yi Chenxuan's nature. A person whose abilities don't match his ambitions, if he has anything, is luck.
His mother's accumulated good karma saved the Lan clan, and today it has actually helped him a great deal.
Yi Chenxuan lost the emperor's favor at the archery competition that day and has been seeking a chance to turn things around for many years. Perhaps obtaining Lan Jingtang can relieve his current anxiety.
Yi Chen leaned against the bed with Pei An and Yuan'er, patiently saying, "Little Yuan'er, people always have to separate. This is a lesson you must learn."
Yi Chenli didn't just blindly coax An Yuan'er without any principles. While protecting her, he also hoped that she would have the courage to face difficulties.
Yi Chenli broke the camel's back with the last straw: "Lan Jingtang is gone, and Mo Ran is leaving for the battlefield tomorrow. Yi Chenli, will you leave me in the future too?"
Yi Chenli remained silent.
No one dares to make any promises about the unknown future, including Yi Chenli.
"Once my leg heals, I will definitely take you to ride horses on the grasslands, take you boating on the river, let you eat all kinds of local delicacies, and explore every beautiful landscape. This is something I have wanted to do for so many years but have not been able to."
