As I walked inside, Zi Min gently tugged at my sleeve, my steps slowed slightly, and Zi Min whispered in my ear, "There are people all around." ”

She was sweating as she held my hand, and I realized that there were a lot of people lurking here. Even if Zimin doesn't say it, I can guess it.

Ding Yu'er pointed to a table near the counter and said, "The two of you sit down for a while?" ”

I nodded, took Zimin and sat down on the couch, and saw Cao Fu walking to the counter, but Ding Yu'er walked to the back hall.

I looked at Ding Yu'er's back.

Before her back disappeared around the corner, she slowly retreated.

When Cao Fu waited for Ding Yu'er to walk in, he had already turned around and looked at the hall of the teahouse, his eyes did not leave the eldest grandson Wuji, but he didn't expect to be lightly bumped by Ding Yu'er who retreated from behind.

I stood up suddenly, a white-clothed swordsman, holding a long sword, was at Ding Yu'er's throat, just a few more inches forward, Ding Yu'er would be injured.

Cao Fu was bumped, turned his head to look, and saw that Ding Yu'er was being held hostage, but he turned his head again and smiled unhurriedly: "This gentleman, we are just ordinary businessmen, what do you mean by this?" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji narrowed his eyes slightly, glanced at Cao Fu, and said coldly: "The owner of the Drunken Hongjian Teahouse will be an ordinary businessman?" You're all from the Qingyu Pavilion, and he—" he said and pointed at me, "It's the Qingyu Pavilion Master, I already know these things, so why are you pretentious?" ”

Cao Fu saw that his words had been made clear by him, and he also smiled, his body shook slightly, and he drew a circle around Ding Yu'er, a long sword suddenly flew out, and the eldest grandson Wuji was stunned and hurriedly got up to dodge, the long sword was just diagonally inserted on the table where the eldest grandson Wuji was sitting, not to the hilt of the sword, the table was not very high, and about a quarter of the sword body went deep into the ground.

I looked closely, the white-clothed swordsman who held Ding Yu'er hostage just now had already fallen to the ground, while Ding Yu'er smiled lightly and walked out of the counter hand in hand with Cao Fu.

Seeing this, the eldest grandson Wuji threw the teacup in his hand to the ground, and there was a sound of the door opening upstairs, and dozens of white-clothed swordsmen flew down, all of them looking extraordinary.

Some of them protected the eldest grandson Wuji in front of and behind him, and the rest surrounded us.

This was already expected by us, Zimin looked at the eldest grandson Wuji, pressed the Qingyu Pavilion order in his hand, chuckled, and said: "Big brother, the eldest grandson Wuji also looks up to us too much, he is afraid that these people are not our opponents, and he specially ambushed several times as many swordsmen waiting outside the teahouse, you say, what should we do?" ”

She obviously said this on purpose, and before she finished speaking, she received some results, and among the swordsmen in white, there were indeed some people whose swords in their hands couldn't help shaking, although they covered their faces with white scarves and couldn't see their expressions clearly, they could roughly guess their anger.

People in the rivers and lakes hate others to look down on the most, Zi Min's provocation, Cao Fu and Ding Yu'er have been walking in the rivers and lakes for many years, how can they not know that when the enemy is unstable, they have already rushed forward, and suddenly snatched a sword in their hands.

I saw that they were so easy to get their hands on, and I was very puzzled, Tang Lin said before, these people's skills are extraordinary, whether it is the eldest grandson Wuji or Li Xuanba, if they want to get rid of me quickly, they will definitely send the most skilled swordsman here, but between Cao Fu and Ding Yu'er, it seems to be effortless.

Seeing that Cao Fu and Ding Yu'er had just shown their hands, the expression on his face changed slightly, his eyes looked at them coldly, and he waved his hand and said, "I didn't expect the two of you to be so good, I admire them." ”

Ding Yu'er smiled: "You admire us? Not uncommon. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji arched his hand at me and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, if you come, you will be safe, it is better to have a drink together." ”

What he said was naturally tea, and the meaning of the words was that even if Cao Fu and Ding Yu'er were there, I would die here, in this case, I should cherish this last time to drink tea.

I nodded and said, "I didn't come here to see you. ”

Sitting opposite the eldest grandson Wuji, Cao Fu and Ding Yu'er looked at us at the other table.

The eldest grandson Wuji sat down and took a sip of tea before saying, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, you ......"

Before he could finish speaking, I interrupted: "I'm no longer the prince, so why should you be polite?" ”

When the eldest grandson Wuji heard this, he glanced at Cao Fu and Ding Yu'er and smiled coldly, and said, "That's right." Li Jiancheng, we can still drink tea here today, when we fled from Chang'an before, we never thought of it. ”

I said: "When I was the crown prince, when I left Chang'an, I didn't think that I would go back, the world is changeable, and no one can say for sure what will happen in the future." ”

Eldest Sun Wuji waved his hand, his gaze withdrew from Cao Fu's body, and shot at me, and said after a long time: "Having said that, it is certain that you will die here today." ”

I said, "Not necessarily." He raised his glass and took a sip of tea.

At this time, a voice sounded on the second floor: "Not necessarily? Haha, I think so. "The man's voice was so strange that I couldn't tell whether it was a man or a woman, and when I looked in the direction of the piano room, I saw that he was wearing a silver mask, and I couldn't see his appearance at all.

Despite pretending to be like this, Zimin and I glanced at each other and invariably thought of a person - Li Xuanba.

I was about to ask what was going on, but before the words could be spoken, the man waved his hand lightly, and a few of the white-clothed swordsmen around us threw something to the ground, and suddenly, puffs of white smoke rose rapidly in the hall, and I was startled and grabbed Zimin's hand tightly.

The smoke was so thick that I couldn't see where the rest of the people were, Zimin leaned next to me, and everyone didn't dare to make a sound.

At this time, there was a humane in front of me: "Boss Cao, Boss Ding, where are you?" ”

I was stunned when I heard this, only to feel that Zimin's hand was suddenly withdrawn from my hand, and I didn't know where she was for a while. I just called "Zimin", then I felt a gust of wind behind me, I leaned over to dodge, two swords swept over my head, I saw a burst of light and shadow flickering, hazy stretched out his foot and kicked forward, only to hear "bang bang" twice, someone fell to the ground.

When the hall was quiet again, I didn't dare to make a sound, and I hoped that Zimin would return to me quickly, but my thoughts were very chaotic...... It's clearly my own voice, what the hell is going on?

Before I could figure this out, I heard someone shout, "Zimin! ”

This call is exactly the same as mine, and even if I hear it myself, it is difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood.

In a trance, I suddenly realized one thing - the man with the iron mask!

I closed my eyes and slowly retreated towards the door according to the direction I had memorized, and only took five steps back, only to hear a "bang", and my heart ached violently, and a sword pierced my shoulder blade.
