Chapter 1970 [Shang Xie] Waiting for the Rabbit
Sit back and wait.
These four words appeared in Xia Fuyi's mind at the first moment.
At the same time, she quickly turned around and walked in the opposite direction. However, after taking only two steps, the guards who seemed to have disappeared before emerged from the night in layers.
They appeared silently, like black waves, densely packed and blocking all the ways away from the man.
Xia Fuyi stopped and her expression grew colder and colder.
Even if one is a martial arts master, it is impossible to break through such a dense crowd.
The more critical the moment, the calmer Xia Fuyi became.
Since you can't escape, just accept it.
Xia Fuyi glanced at the imperial guards, turned to look at the man, and asked calmly,
"When did you know I was here?"
"It probably started from the day of the Heavenly Sacrifice Ceremony,"
He smiled lightly, took a sip of wine, and said slowly,
"Do you think I can't recognize you with your cloak on? After all, we've lived together for many years, so how come you don't know me so well?"
Xia Fuyi was in a bad mood, but she didn't have many emotional fluctuations, so her face just looked a little colder.
As if thinking for a moment, she slowly walked to the table and sat down.
There were two wine glasses on the table, and it turned out that he had been waiting here for a long time with confidence.
The man filled her glass with wine, but she was not ready to drink. She just said coldly and slowly,
"Now, should I call you Sect Master, or Prince?"
"what ever,"
Chang Sun Qingzhao didn't care and asked her with a deep smile,
"As for the guy in the Purple Palace, are you calling him Your Majesty? Or Li Chi?"
"It's none of your business."
Xia Fuyi didn't give any face at all and asked directly,
"What do you want me to do to get out?"
"If the palace is truly open to the public, wouldn't that mean I, the regent, am completely useless? But you're still half my apprentice, so I can't bear to throw you in jail."
Chang Sun Qingzhao said lightly,
"I have a place to stay in the palace. You can stay there for a few days."
Xia Fuyi stroked the wine glass.
"How long will it take before you let me go?"
Chang Sun Qingzhao smiled with interest when he heard this.
"Do you think you are still qualified to negotiate with me at this time?"
Xia Fuyi was silent for a moment, and after a long time, she said softly,
"No?"
The next moment, the wind suddenly blew, and Long Yuan's sword had silently slipped out of the scabbard, drawing a sharp cold light in the night, and without warning, it hit Changsun Qingzhao's neck.
The green sleeves flashed and fell, and Xia Fuyi was standing behind the man in the blink of an eye.
Her Longyuan wasn't even fully unsheathed, only half an inch of cold light was pressed against the man's throat.
Her hands were very steady, without a trace of trembling, and seemed as if she was ready to slit someone's throat without hesitation at any time.
In this extremely short period of time, the imperial guards had completely emerged from the darkness and surrounded Xia Fuyi from all sides without leaving a single gap.
The sounds of swords being drawn rang in the ears, and countless sharp cold rays suddenly appeared in the night, cutting the sound of the wind into an incomparable sharpness.
Everyone looked nervous, but Xia Fuyi held the sword firmly against Changsun Qingzhao's throat and asked him calmly and coldly,
"Now, am I still qualified to negotiate with you?"
The atmosphere was like a taut string about to break.
At this moment, the man, whose life was hanging by a thread with a sword against his throat, laughed.
