"Bang, bang!"

Late at night, there was a knock on Liu Xunyi's door, breaking the rare silence of the East Courtyard.

"Squeak!"

In the middle of the night, the door gently opened a crack, revealing Liu Xunyi's handsome face full of confusion.

"Who's ......"

Just as he was about to speak, Liu Xunyi's voice stopped abruptly, and at the same time, the gentleness in his eyes disappeared in a blink of an eye, replaced by a faint suspicion.

The person who came, it turned out to be Xun Qin.

"You ......" Xun Qin came uninvited, which surprised Liu Xunyi, thousands of thoughts flashed in her mind, secretly speculating about her intention, and at the same time asked, "What is Miss Xun Qin doing?"

"Let me in!"

Before the words fell, Xun Qin had already pushed open the half-hidden door and broke into Liu Xunyi's room.

In the face of Xun Qin's eccentricity, Liu Xunyi couldn't help frowning, hesitated slightly, and then closed the door gently, and the east courtyard fell into a dead silence again.

"You're ......"

"Liu Xunyi, go and persuade Zhao Yuan to give up Zhao'an, and then you leave Luoyang City together. ”

Xun Qin didn't give Liu Xunyi a chance to ask questions at all, and as soon as he came up, he went straight to the point and explained his intentions.

In the room, a lamp is like a bean, Liu Xunyi and Xun Qin stand facing each other, their eyes facing each other, and each other's faces are hazy.

"Actually, I expected this day to happen. I just didn't expect it...... You're going to come so fast. Liu Xunyi didn't show much surprise, and replied indifferently, "You should know my answer, recruiting An is a plan of the imperial court, and he will not give up easily." ”

"If you don't go, you'll die tomorrow." Xun Qinmei was stunned and said angrily, "And it's ugly!"

Liu Xunyi thought about it for a while, and gradually understood what Xun Qin meant, and couldn't help but tremble in his heart, his Adam's apple squirmed slightly, and asked rhetorically: "What? You want to reveal my identity in front of the mansion master?"

"Yes. ”

Xun Qin agreed surprisingly happily, as if he didn't want to entangle with it.

"Why?" Liu Xunyi was not surprised, and hesitated, "It's not that the road is facing the sky, and each side is half ......."

"The King of Shaoqin did not allow the Great Song Dynasty to recruit An Luo Tianjin. Xun Qin said indifferently, "You must leave Luoyang City." ”

"What do you mean?" Although Liu Xunyi knew that the King of Shaoqin and Luo Tianjin were plotting to rebel, he still pretended to know nothing in front of Xun Qin, and asked, "The imperial court recruited an army to resist the Mongol army, what does it have to do with the King of Shaoqin? Does he want to watch the Mongols annex the Great Song Dynasty and thus become the dominant family? If the Mongols are allowed to dominate the world, how can you have a good life?"

"The Great Song Dynasty is exhausted, and sooner or later it will die, and it will be useless for you to die and struggle. Xun Qin looked at him left and right, and did not answer Liu Xunyi's question directly, "I can only tell you that the King of Shaoqin will never allow Luo Tianjin to accept the Song Court's recruitment. Therefore, you must convince Zhao Yuan to leave Luoyang City together. ”

"Why are we leaving?" Liu Xunyi thought for a moment and chuckled, "It is not known who killed the deer?" Why can't it be you who left?"

"If Luo Tianjin had the slightest intention of recruiting An, we would have left a long time ago, how could we stay until today?" Xun Qin looked at Liu Xunyi as if he was looking at an idiot, and sneered contemptuously, "Wake up! Zhao'an of the Great Song Dynasty is a fool's dream at all, and it will never come true." ”

"Poof!"

Before the words fell, Liu Xunyi suddenly waved his right hand, sucked the Wuji Sword hanging on the wall into his hand, and then shook the sword edge, pointed at the motionless Xunqin, and said coldly: "If I kill you first, and then kill Yeluqin, who will know my secret?"

"If you think that you can hide from the world like this, just do it!" Xun Qin's pair of apricot eyes stared at Liu Xunyi's eyes without hesitation, his expression was firm, and his face was not afraid, "The news of Zhao Yuan and Ling Xiaoxiao's private meeting in Xiangyun Silk Village, Luo Tianjin already knows. As I expected, there will be a great change in the Xianwang Mansion. It is impossible for Luo Tianjin to be indifferent, with his city government and methods, you ask yourself, how long can you continue to hide?"

"What?"

Liu Xunyi was secretly taken aback, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes involuntarily.

Although Liu Xunyi's stunned was fleeting, he was still in full view of Xunqin, and he became more and more sure that Liu Xunyi was the initiator of Xiangyun Silk Village.

"You want to deceive me?" Liu Xunyi reacted very quickly, and took a step closer towards Xun Qin with his sword.

"Such an obvious trick, why do I need to deceive you?" Xun Qin said disdainfully, "Liu Xunyi, I think you have always been cautious in doing things, but I don't know that you can also make such a childish mistake." You and Zhao Yuan couldn't wait to complete Zhao'an, but they forgot the truth that 'if you want to hurry, you can't reach it', so that there are many loopholes, causing you to lurk by Luo Tianjin's side for the past two years, and all the efforts you have made have come to naught. ”

"I ......"

"Lord Ning has given me an ultimatum. Xun Qin didn't seem to want to listen to Liu Xunyi's explanation, and said, "Before noon tomorrow, if you don't take the initiative to leave, the identity of the young protector of Tianji Pavilion will be made public." ”

"You ......"

"I know you have my handle in your hand. Xun Qinman didn't care about the road, "But today, the relationship between Luo Tianjin and the King of Shaoqin is unbreakable, and there will never be a rift because of your provocation." But once your identity is exposed, not only will your life be in danger, but Zhao Yuan will also not be able to get out of Luoyang City. You should know Luo Tianjin's temperament, he will never tolerate someone betraying him. ”

Liu Xunyi's eyes were cold, and he said sharply: "You dare to threaten me?"

"So what?" Xun Qin took a step forward against Liu Xunyi's sword edge, making the extremely sharp tip of the sword tightly against his heart, and said bluntly, "Either leave Luoyang City, or kill me now." But I dare to guarantee that even if you kill me, it will be difficult to stand in front of Luo Tianjin, and sooner or later it will be exposed. ”

"The lord of the mansion may not believe your words!" Liu Xunyi said in a deep voice, "You can expose me, and I can also expose you." Therefore, whether you die or I die, no one can make a conclusion until the result appears!"

"Okay!" Xun Qin smiled instead of being angry, "Let's try!"

Looking at Xun Qin, who had made up his mind, Liu Xunyi's eyes couldn't help but tremble slightly. Hugh listened to his heart-wrenching words, but in fact, Liu Xunyi knew in his heart that his sins were far greater than Xunqin's. Once the net is broken with Xun Qinyu, he has no chance of winning.

After a long confrontation, Liu Xunyi suddenly sighed, and then slowly put down the Wuji Sword, and muttered: "You can tell the truth directly to the mansion master, and you caught me off guard, why did you tell me in advance?"

Facing Liu Xunyi's questioning, Xun Qin's eyebrows twitched slightly, and his eyes were full of complicated meaning, but he didn't say a word for a long time.

"I've already said what I had to say. Xun Qin changed his words and urged, "After dawn, if I see you again in the Xianwang Mansion, I will have no choice. When the time comes, Hugh blames me for being ruthless. ”

After that, Xun Qin completely ignored Liu Xunyi's reaction, raised his feet and walked towards the door.

"And!" Walking to the door, Xun Qin suddenly stopped and reminded without looking back, "Don't expect Ling Xiaoxiao to help you, she is now a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and it is difficult to protect herself." If you get too close to her, not only will you not be able to help you, but the end will be even more miserable. As for Luo Ningyu...... You owe her so much, and if you don't want her to live in pain for the rest of her life, don't take advantage of her. Between now and dawn, you still have five hours to think about it, so that you can do it yourself. ”

"Stop!"

Before Xun Qin opened the door and left, Liu Xunyi's voice suddenly sounded.

At this moment, the cold wind outside the room was howling, the candles in the room were swaying, the two were back to back, and no one looked back, only two vague shadows, intertwined on the dim wall, flickering near and far, flickering bright and dark, just like their state of mind at the moment.

After being silent for a long time, Liu Xunyi's voice sounded again: "No matter what, thank you for being merciful and giving me a chance to escape." It's not in vain...... You and I lived and died together in the past, and we knew each other. ”

Just one word made Xun Qin's delicate body tremble, and unconsciously, her eyes gradually turned red, quietly covered with a thin layer of tears.

"Now that you know, you can leave quickly, and save ...... Bring about one's own destruction. Xun Qin's voice seemed to be a little choked.

"Yes!" Liu Xunyi's tone sounded a little joking, but the banter was full of helplessness and sadness, "Miss Xun Qin is so loving, how can she not know how to lift up?

"Liu Xunyi!" Xun Qin raised his head slightly, as if he didn't want to let the tears fall, and scolded angrily, "What kind ......of bastard are you talking about?"

"I'm sorry!" a miserable smile appeared on the corner of Liu Xunyi's mouth, "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you." ”

"You ......"

"I can't go. Liu Xunyi said bitterly, "Zhao'an has not been successful for a day, and I can't leave for a day." Therefore, even if I die, I will die in Luoyang City. If I am too cowardly to retreat, what will I lose my life?"

"Liu Xunyi, don't force me!"

"Xun Qin, don't force me!"

"You ......"

"Actually, you and I are not wrong, but each is his own master. Liu Xunyi took a deep breath and said word by word, "I don't need to think about it for five hours, I can answer you now." I will not persuade Hou Ye to give up Zhao'an, let alone leave Luoyang City!"

"There is a way in heaven that you don't take, and there is no way to go in hell. Since you are so loyal to the court of the Great Song Dynasty, I will fulfill you and let you kill yourself and die for your country. ”

"The clay figurines are still rustic, you should know my temperament, I will never be caught. If you have made up your mind and insist on exposing me, then I will be forced to fight you to the end. ”

"If you don't see the coffin, you won't shed tears!

After saying that, the furious Xun Qin no longer had the slightest hesitation, pulled the door open suddenly, and walked away without looking back.

"Whew!"

A cold wind swept through the wide open doors, extinguishing the faint candle flame and plunging the room into darkness.

"Click!"

I don't know whether it was anger or sadness, Liu Xunyi swung his sword hard, and with a loud bang, the table and chair were split in half by a fierce sword qi.

Letting the biting cold wind blow in his face, it was still difficult to calm the heat in Liu Xunyi's heart.

"Ahh

Suddenly, a roar shook the earth, soaring into the sky, echoing in the vast expanse of night.

In the distance, in the dark corridor, Xun Qin stood against the railing, looking at the stars and the moon from afar, letting the crystal tears fall, but she pursed her red lips, her eyebrows were stubborn, and she slowly closed her eyes.

......
