PRECIOUS PRINCESS
EIGHTY ONE
The Queen Mother had fainted. He had not expected Xuan Lan to kill the person before him. He also did not expect that Xiao Xi was not his granddaughter.

Xuan Lan had finished ridding her body of Xiao Xi's blood and that of Empress Juan's, she had also thrown away the hanfu she had used earlier. Now he was pondering in his room and the physician Bao went inside.
"Is your heart relieved?" ask physician Bao gently.
"Yes, after this Xiao Lan's body will be completely mine" Xuan Lan said.
"How are uncle and aunt?" xuan Lan asked the physician Bao.
"They've been here since, probably before we took out the four" replied physician Bao.
"What's your plan now?" ask physician Bao.
"Let's know, maybe I'll settle down here and become a responsible reine" Xuan Lan said with a chuckle.
"Yes, you do have to take responsibility I'm tired of being your vice-reine if you've never been here" grumbled physician Bao who made Xuan Lan laugh again.
"It's over I want to sleep" Xuan Lan said exorcising the delicate healer Bao.
He then put himself in his most comfortable position. Physician Bao then enveloped Xuan Lan's body and briefly peeked at the top of her head. Physician Bao loved Xuan Lan as much as he loved his sister. He turned off some candles and went out.
"Good night Lan'er" whispered physician Bao.
"Good night gege" Xuan Lan said then closed her eyes.
In another place everyone could breathe a sigh of relief after Xuan Lan and Gold Tiger had already walked out of the hall. They then come out to look for fresh air because their sense of smell feels damaged because it only smells of blood there.
The body of Xiao Xi and the body of former empress Xiu Juan had not been cleansed from it either. Blood was also still flowing everywhere there was even blood that had dried up at some point. Prince Gui then gave orders to the maid to clean up all this mess. The servants were actually unwilling to be exposed to the blood of former empress Juan and Xiao Xi because of the crimes they had committed. They asked the Gui prince to have Xiao Xi's servant and Xiu Juan's servant clean up this whole mess and the Gui prince allow it.
The servant Xiao Xi and the servant Xiu Juan cried as they cleaned up the formless body that Xiao Xi and Xiu Juan had. They did not expect their visitation would end up sadistic like this. They also cleared up the place where the eunuchs An and Fei Hong had been tortured.
They wiped the still-thin blood and mopped the parts where anyone's blood had dried up. They do the cleaning until morning. After they made sure everything was clean, they then brought their body of the lord out of the main hall.
Tomorrow the hall is back to how it was. Although the smell of carnation was still there but the smell was already quite reduced than it was yesterday night. Emperor Xiao apologized profusely to all of the invited guests who were disturbed and uncomfortable at last night's incident. He also did not know if this would happen.
The people of the Xiao empire were also already aware of the news of the death of the former empress Xiu Juan and Xiao Xi's daughter, some were happy that some were sad. But after they heard the cause of the death of the two people they all instead became happy because finally the mastermind of the murder of the empress Fang Yin had been revealed.
Empress Fang Yin was like a goddess to the people of the Xiao empire because of her humility and generosity. Unlike Xiu Juan who is very arrogant and always looks down on the people under him. He sometimes did charity only if asked by emperor Xiao, besides that he even blackmailed the people.
The servants of Xiu Juan and Xiao Xi began to put their lord bodies on the wood. No one attended the cremation except themselves.
Xuan Lan had already gotten there. He used his veil and looked over from behind the tree all the activities that took place in the Xiao imperial palace. He then looked at the servants who were crying while burning wood in front of them.
"I will avenge you" said one of the servants, crying as he pleased.
"Who are you going to take revenge on?" asked Xuan Lan coldly.
The waiter looked up and saw Xuan Lan standing on the tree and Xuan Lan descending right before him.
The waiter started shaking. Unknowingly he turned his body.
"Where do you say revenge? I just step you're already scared" Xuan Lan said haughtily.
He flicked his finger at the waiter. The servant immediately convulsed in his place and his body became charred, he was still not dead and he was only on the verge of death. Xuan Lan was unwilling to take the risk, though, if the servant really intended to avenge him he would do anything for it at once this was a warning to the other servants not to act as brazen as the servant had been.
"If anyone says anything like that again, I won't hesitate to make you guys like him. Remember, my eyes are everywhere" Xuan Lan said then left not forgetting that he snapped his finger so that the servant would die.
Xuan Lan chose to go to the jasmine residence. He wanted to take the belongings of his uncle and aunt that were still left there. He entered the residence in slow steps and then picked up various items that his uncle and aunt had ordered to him earlier.
He accidentally saw Xiao Lan's painting as a child that was plastered there. He touched the painting gently.
"Xiao Lan" he said.
"Thank you, Xuan Lan" said Xiao Lan who was already behind him.
Xuan Lan then turned her body. He looked at Xiao Lan who was smiling as bright as the morning sun.
"Yes, equally" Xuan Lan replied.
"As I promised, my body is already completely yours. My mother also thanked you, now we can live quietly there" Xiao Lan said again.
"Xiao Lan" Xuan Lan said as Xiao Lan had already disappeared from her sight.
"Xuan Lan" called Wang Yu Yan who had somehow come from when.
"Who are you talking to?" tanyanya.
"Xiao Lan" Xuan Lan said.
"Where's Xiao Lan?" wang Yu Yan asked enthusiastically.
"Don't go overboard like that, he's gone" Xuan Lan said.
"Well, when I want to see it and thank him for it I can be with my best friend on this one" Wang Yu Yan said while hugging Xuan Lan tightly.
"Xuan Lan do you know?" wang Yu Yan asked.
"No" Xuan Lan said flatly.
"I'm not done talking, Xuan Lan!" w.a.n.g Yu Yan said annoyedly which made Xuan Lan chuckle.
"Yesterday night you were so cool when you said 'i am the reine you're looking for' especially when you're wearing your mask" Wang Yu Yan said while mimicking Xuan Lan's speaking style.
"There's no need to overdo it" Xuan Lan sneered.
"How did you know I was here?" xuan Lan asked confusedly.
"I wanted to see the cremation process of Xiao Xi and her mother and I accidentally saw you so I followed you here" Wang Yu Yan explained.
"Oh, then what about Jiang Yuan? Uh, what should I call him? Jiang Yuan or Wang Yuan?" asked Xuan Lan.
"Okay, we're confused too. Yuyu still did not want to come with us" Wang Yu Yan said rather sadly.
"Calm down, he needs time to accept all of this" Xuan Lan said calming Wang Yu Yan while Yu Yan simply nodded. They then walked out.
The moment they had already stepped out of the door they met the emperor Xiao who was staring at the jasmine residence with his guilt.
"Lan'er" he said.
