Before dawn, the heavens and the earth were as dark as ink, and the five fingers could not be seen in the Tianji Pavilion.

Suddenly, four golden knife captains with torches trotted all the way into the courtyard where Liu Xun lived, causing Ding Chou, who was standing on the pile, to be stunned, and fell from the high wooden stake again after a little distraction.

"Damn!

Ding Chou, who had a blue nose and swollen face, endured the soreness on his body, struggled to get up from the ground, and at the same time kept complaining to the four Golden Knife captains: "In the middle of the night, the eldest brothers don't sleep, what are you doing here?"

"Little Dingzi, can Liu Xunyi be in the room?"

With an indifferent inquiry, Qiu Han, who was expressionless, slowly walked into the courtyard accompanied by Qin Wei.

"Meet Lord Qiu and Lord Qin!"

As soon as he saw Qiu and Qin, Ding Chou hurriedly restrained the banter on his face, and arched his hand: "If you reply to Lord Qiu, Lord Liu has been sleeping in the room since he came back from Hou Ye's study. ”

"Really?" Qiu Han walked straight to the door.

"The villain has been practicing at the door, and he has never closed his eyes, so he must have never come out. Ding Chou replied with an oath.

Walking to the door, Qiu Han did not raise his hand to knock on the door, but put his eyes close to the crack in the door and carefully looked at the dimly lit room.

Qin Wei said: "Brother Qiu, since Brother Liu is sleeping in the room, let's not disturb him." ”

"You can not disturb him, but you have to see him with your own eyes. Qiu Han said without looking back, "Master Hou ordered us to keep an eye on Liu Xunyi, how can we be careless?"

"What Brother Qiu said is extremely true, that ......"

"Strange thing!" Qiu Han suddenly interrupted Qin Wei's conversation and laughter, and hesitated, "With Liu Xunyi's ear power, it is impossible not to notice that we are outside the door, why is there no movement in the room at all?"

"Brother Liu has been in a bad mood recently, he borrows alcohol all day to kill his sorrows, and he often drinks unconscious, and he didn't notice when I pushed the door in the first half of the night. Qin Wei said with a smile, "In the dead of night at the moment, he is drunk again." ”

"Really?"

Qiu Han frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and then under Qin Wei's stunned gaze, he snatched the torch of a golden sword captain, pushed open the door, and strode into Liu Xunyi's room with the torch.

The flickering torch illuminated the room as bright as day, Qiu Han walked to the side of the bed, gently pushed the end of the torch towards the towering futon, and shouted: "Liu Xunyi, you ......"

Before he finished speaking, Qiu Han's face suddenly changed, so he picked up the futon without thinking, and found that there was no trace of Liu Xunyi under the futon at all, only two cold pillows.

"Liu Xunyi!"

Qiu Han was furious, looked around the room with a torch, and then walked out of the room angrily.

"Brother Qiu, what's the matter?"

In the face of Qin Wei's curiosity, Qiu Han turned a deaf ear. He rushed to the dazed Ding Chou with an arrow step, dropped the torch in his hand to the ground, and then grabbed Ding Chou's collar with a thunderous momentum, and asked, "Where is Liu Xunyi?"

"Willow ...... Isn't Lady Liu in the room?"

Ding Chou's frightened face changed, and his thin body couldn't help but tremble.

"Fart!" Qiu Han lifted Ding Chou off the ground with one hand and asked again, "Where is Liu Xunyi?"

"I don't know...... I don't know......"

Ding Chou looked aggrieved, and there was already a hint of crying in his trembling voice.

Seeing this, Qin Wei hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Brother Qiu, Ding Chou is still young, don't frighten him......"

"Little?" Qiu Leng smiled, "Don't forget, you and I have already started killing people at his age. ”

"Huh!" Qin Wei persuaded, "This time is different from the past, how can Brother Qiu be so compared? Besides, with Brother Liu's martial arts, if he wants to hide from Xiao Dingzi and leave the room, it is as easy as a hand, why should Brother Qiu be like a child? What's more, Xiao Dingzi stood on the stake out of diligence, not because he was ordered to monitor Brother Liu, so he ......"

"I'm not angry that he was derelict in his duties, but that he was open-mouthed!"

After that, Qiu Han snorted angrily, waved his arm, threw Ding Chou out of a foot, and slammed it to the ground, he wailed in pain, and he couldn't get up from the ground for a long time.

"Ordered the night guard captain to look for Liu Xunyi's traces. Qiu Han ordered, "Even if you dig three feet into the ground, you must find him!"

"Yes!"

The four Golden Sword Captains received the order in unison, and then quickly left the courtyard and went to each other.

"Brother Qiu, since Brother Liu is not in the room, how can he be in the Tianji Pavilion? Wouldn't it be in vain for you to let the captains search the mansion?"

"I don't know how many people outside the Tianji Pavilion want to kill him, does Liu Xunyi dare to go out?" Qiu Leng said in a cold voice, "Even if he dares to go out, can he come back alive?"

"Brother Qiu can't help but underestimate Brother Liu's ability......"

"Alright!" Qiu Han interrupted impatiently, "It's useless to talk more, it's important to find Liu Xunyi." I'll go tell Master Hou, you go look around!"

After saying that, Qiu Han no longer gave Qin Wei a chance to speak, and suddenly turned around and left.

"Inexplicable!"

Looking at Qiu Han's hurried back, the kindness on Qin Wei's face disappeared in an instant, and a touch of contempt couldn't help but flash in his eyes.

"Lord Qin, Lord Qiu has no reason, why is he so angry?"

Faced with Ding Chou's confusion, Qin Wei said meaningfully: "What he lost...... Far more than just one hand. ”

"What do you mean?"

"Don't ask too much! In short, you must be very careful in front of him in the future, and you must be extremely cautious in everything you say and do. ”

Ding Chou was stunned for a moment, and said incomprehensibly: "Why?"

"Because of Lord Qiu's temper...... Will get weirder and weirder every day. ”

Leaving an inexplicable answer, Qin Wei no longer paid attention to Ding Chou, who had palpitations. However, instead of following Qiu Han's orders to search for Liu Xunyi's whereabouts, he walked leisurely through the bustling Golden Knife Captain and walked towards his residence.

After a tiring day and tossing in the middle of the night, Qin Wei was already sleepy, and now he just wanted to lie on the bed and sleep beautifully.

However, when Qin Wei, who was stretching and yawning, pushed open his door, a dark and blurred figure was sitting quietly at the head of his bed like a clay sculpture, which shocked his spirit and woke up from his sleepiness.

"Who?"

With a shout, Qin Wei drew his knife out of its sheath, and the cold blade emitted a faint cold light under the reflection of the moonlight.

In the face of the eerie and terrifying blade, the man in black didn't say a word, slowly raised his head, and by the hazy moonlight, Qin Wei could vaguely recognize this person's appearance.

"Brother Liu?"

Qin Wei was taken aback, hurriedly put the knife into the sheath, and said suspiciously: "In the middle of the night, what did you do when you ran to my room?"

"I'm waiting for you. ”

Liu Xunyi's voice was as flat as water, without a trace of emotion.

"Wait for me?"

Qin Wei was stunned for a moment, subconsciously closed the door, and then walked to the table, wanting to light the candlestick on the table.

"You don't have to keep the lights on. Liu Xunyi's voice sounded again.

"This ......"

Qin Wei put the knife on the table, looked at the blurry Liu Xunyi with confused eyes, and jokingly said: "If you don't hold the lamp, neither you nor I can see anyone." ”

"It's better not to be able to see. Liu Xunyi said, "I can see it too clearly, but it is unfamiliar." ”

"Brother Liu, what's wrong with you?" Qin Wei was not stubborn, he sat at the table with a short body, chatting with Liu Xunyi with great interest, "Do you know that Qiu Han is leading people around looking for you......"

"How do they know I'm not in the room?

Hearing this, Qin Wei's eyelids twitched slightly, and he smiled lightly: "You are too worried! It is Hou Ye who is worried about your safety, and is afraid that those Jianghu people will sneak into Tianji Pavilion to plot against you, so he ordered us to go and see you every once in a while." We just found out that you weren't there, and we were worried that something would happen to you, so we ......"

"It's amazing to have you so much 'care' for me. ”

"Brother Liu, what's wrong with you?" Qin Wei gradually noticed Liu Xunyi's abnormality, and said cautiously, "Where did you go tonight? ”

"Why?"

"Talk to me...... Why dress up carefully?" Qin Wei stretched out his hand and pointed at Liu Xunyi, and teased, "Look at your appearance, even if you break into the palace at night, people will believe you." ”

As for this, Qin Wei's heart quietly hung up, and he cautiously tentatively said, "You...... Where did you just go?"

"It doesn't matter. ”

Liu Xunyi's answer to the question made Qin Wei's mind more and more worried.

"That's right. Qin Wei pretended to be calm, "The most important thing is that you came back smoothly and are safe and sound." ”

"Brother Qin, do you know what Master Hou said to me?"

Liu Xunyi's unprovoked question made Qin Wei's throat squirm slightly.

"I don't know. ”

Hou Ye said...... Xin'er and I will never be together again in our lives. Liu Xunyi said word by word, "Because she is no longer the lord of Xinde now, but the princess of Xinde." The matter ...... Did You Know?"

"Gollum!"

Qin Wei subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of spit, quickly calculated countermeasures in his mind, and said with a dry smile: "I ...... this matter Slightly heard. ”

"I'll guess you know. ”

I don't know why, Liu Xunyi's laughter sounded very weird to Qin Wei, and even a little terrifying.

"Brother Liu, in fact, I don't tell you about this because I don't want you to be sad......"

"I don't have to explain, I understand. Liu Xunyi interrupted Qin Wei's words, "I'm just a little curious, is the Hou Ye putting me under house arrest in the mansion to protect me, or is he worried that I will have a private meeting with Xin'er?"

"Of course...... Protecting you...... of course."

"That's right!" Liu Xunyi ignored Qin Wei's answer and said to himself, "There is another matter, the emperor canonized Xin'er as a princess, in order to make her reconcile with the Mongols. And this ...... It was also the fundamental reason why Xifu was able to successfully negotiate and make the Mongol army retreat north. ”

At this moment, Qin Wei was a thief, and his forehead was already covered with fine beads of sweat.

"Really?" Qin Wei pretended to be confused and forced a smile, "This matter ...... This is the first time I've heard of this......"

As he spoke, Qin Wei reached out and fumbled for the teacup on the table, wanting to drink water and be shocked.

"Brother Qin, I have hatred in my heart!"

"What?"

"Boom ......"

Liu Xunyi's words made Qin Wei's body tremble, and the teacup in his hand overturned and fell on the table.

"I hate Xin'er for not believing her word, and taking the initiative to agree to marry Mongolia!" Liu Xunyi gritted his teeth and said, "Master Hou told me that Xin'er went to Mongolia to make peace with her voluntarily, and no one forced her. ”

"Yes...... Is it?" Qin Wei's body stiffened, his throat was jerky, and his tongue was knotted, "Unexpectedly...... Brother Liu, this kind of woman is greedy for vanity, likes the new and hates the old...... Don't ...... either"

"Being betrayed by the person I trust the most, I was burned all over the place, and my liver and intestines were broken!"

"I understand ......"

"You understand?"

Liu Xunyi suddenly raised his head, and a pair of deep and bright eyes exuded a ghostly light in the darkness, which made people shudder.

"I ......"

"Do you understand?" Facing Qin Wei, who was at a loss, Liu Xunyi asked again, "Do you really understand?"

"Brother Liu, I understand how you feel now, and I know that you were betrayed by Zhao Xin......"

"Since you understand my feelings, why don't you ...... Tell me the meaning of this thing again. It's like...... That's what you said to Xin'er!"

With that, Liu Xunyi reached into his arms, and in Qin Wei's worried and frightened gaze, he slowly took out a handkerchief.

As soon as he saw this, Qin Wei felt that his "thumping" beating heart was slammed and shattered. At the same time, his breathing stopped, his blood was as cold as ice, his whole body was numb, and his face was like ashes.

......
