The footsteps came closer and closer, and at last they stopped, and heard someone outside the hall shouting: "Listen, the people inside, the people you want have been brought, so hand over the hostages." ”

The sound was followed by silence.

Hua Feixue didn't speak immediately, but said to a guard guarding behind the door: "Zheng Hua, what's the situation?" ”

The guard who called Zheng Hua glanced out and replied, "They're here." Not many came, about a dozen people. The leader is a small guard captain among the imperial guards, who seems to be called Zou Qi. I know this person, just an ordinary guard, and his martial arts are not outstanding. ”

Hua Feixue said: "Keep an eye on them, don't take them lightly." ”

"Yes, Childe!"

At this time, the loud voice said again: "We don't have weapons, you can rest assured, can you show up now?" ”

Hua Feixue said to Zheng Hua: "You ask them, what about the people we want?" ”

Zheng Hua said loudly: "What about the people we want?" ”

Zou Qi said: "The person you want is behind, do you want us to take a look at the hostages first?" ”

Zheng Hua said: "You first let us see the people, and we will let you see!" ”

The people outside listened, but there was no response, and silence returned to the courtyard.

It seems that they are just here to arrest people, and they did not bring Concubine Li. My heart was cold, and I knew I might be done. I looked at Hua Feixue uneasily, what would he do to me if he knew that they didn't bring Concubine Li?

Hua Feixue's face was calm, without an angry look, and he said to Zheng Hua: "You say it to them." She was poisoned, and the antidote was in my hands, so I advised them that it was better for us to see people first. ”

Zheng Hua shouted to the people outside: "Listen to the people outside, she has been hit by our son's Hundred Steps Intestine Breaking Pill, and the antidote is in our son's hands, if you don't want her to die, bring people out first." ”

The people outside listened to the silence, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

I laughed in my heart, what is the use of you saying this to them, where will they care if I am poisoned or not? Their purpose is King Yu, and they don't care about me at all. Besides, Concubine Li didn't come at all, so of course they couldn't bring it out.

After a while, Zou Qi said, "Okay, let's bring people out first." However, after we bring it out, you must also bring it out, otherwise we will not be welcome. ”

I was amazed: what! This Zou Qi actually agreed. Did he really bring Concubine Li? How dare he, a little guard, bring Concubine Li? Unless the emperor asked him to do it. However, how could the emperor really exchange Concubine Li for me?

Zheng Hua glanced back at Hua Feixue, and Hua Feixue nodded.

Zheng Hua replied: "Okay, you guys bring people out!" ”

After a burst of footsteps, I heard Zou Qi say: "Concubine Li, please forgive me, please get off the sedan chair first?" ”

Hearing this, I still can't believe that Zou Qi really brought Concubine Li. Maybe this Concubine Li is a stand-in, and they take a fake one to lure people who are hiding out.

After another burst of footsteps, Zheng Hua at the door showed surprise on his face, turned his head to Hua Feixue and said, "Childe, they really brought Concubine Li." ”

Hua Feixue remained silent, "Have you looked carefully?" Not fake? ”

"Look carefully, it's indeed Concubine Li!"

Hua Feixue didn't seem to be at ease, poked her head out from behind the Buddha statue, glanced at it and immediately shrank back, her expression became solemn and nervous, frowning and thinking about something.

It doesn't look like his expression is fake, is Concubine Li really here? What does the emperor want to do? Do you really want to hand over Concubine Li?

At this time, Zou Qi said: "The person you want is here, what about the hostages in your hand, shouldn't we also meet them?" ”

Hua Feixue gave Zheng Hua a look, Zheng Hua was clear, and said loudly: "Okay." But you are not allowed to move, and if you do, her life will be lost. ”

Zou Qi said: "Okay, we won't move." ”

"People are here!" Hua Feixue pushed me out behind the Buddha statue, and he himself was still hiding behind the Buddha statue.

I came out from behind the Buddha statue and finally got a clear view of the courtyard. The first thing I saw was the person who was surrounded by stars and moons, dressed in a lilac dress and wearing a few simple headdresses on her head. She stood quietly in the crowd, her expression calm and her gaze indifferent, as if none of this had anything to do with her. Maybe she's such an honorable person, I can't help but be in awe.

Her unpleasant look rippled the moment she saw me, her eyes flickered, a hint of coldness flashed, but she soon regained her original calm and indifference.

She was surrounded by more than a dozen guards, they protected her in the middle, although they did not bring weapons, but everyone's expressions were very solemn, everyone's nerves were tense, and every pair of eyes were firmly fixed on me or at this Buddha hall.

Today's sun is very good, there is not a trace of wind, and the tense atmosphere seems to be diluted by the sunshine. I suddenly envied the person on the other side, who could bask in the warm sunlight while I could only hide in the shadows.

Behind them is the gate of the Heavenly King's Palace, and the courtyard wall blocks the situation outside the courtyard, so I can't see the situation outside, I don't know if it is covered with a net of heaven and earth, or if it is empty.

The last thing I saw was the guard named Zou Qi, I had seen him when I was in the palace, but I had only seen him, and I didn't know him very well. I only remember that he was just an inconspicuous guard beside the emperor, but I didn't expect the emperor to let him take on this important task today.

When Zou Qi saw me, he looked stunned, and then his eyes narrowed.

Seeing the change in Zou Qi's expression, I couldn't help but get nervous, at this time, should they take action?

However, it didn't come out of the situation I had imagined. No one jumped off the roof, neither outside the courtyard, and the people on the other side were all nervously watching this side, and no one made any move.

People have also seen it, and they also know where Hua Feixue is hiding, why haven't they acted?

What are they waiting for?

At this time, Zou Qi said: "People have seen it, should we replace them?" ”

Substitution?

Listening to Zou Qi's words, I was very surprised, did he really plan to exchange Concubine Li for me? It's impossible, I have no use value for the emperor at all, how can he exchange Concubine Li for me?

However, if they don't want to change people, why don't they act at this time? At this time, the operation is the best moment, they already know where Hua Feixue is hiding, and they immediately rush up, and it is likely that they will be able to capture Hua Feixue and the others in one fell swoop. And if you really wait until the time to change people before you do it, although you may be able to catch them, you may have to risk hurting Concubine Li, and you may even let them go.

I can think of it, and they should think of it too. But why, they don't get their hands dirty yet?

What exactly are they going to do?

The more I couldn't guess, the more unpredictable I became, the more scared I became, the more tormented I felt, my forehead was already sweating nervously, and my palms were full of sweat.
