Yuwen Xu looked at him with a deep, unsettling gaze.
He remained silent.
Liang Yue smiled, covering her face with her handkerchief.
The next moment, his eyes turned fierce.
"Yuwen Xu, you dared to force the emperor to abdicate and imprison my father, all for the sake of such a woman? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by the world?"
Yuwen Xu pursed his lips tightly, and after a long while, he spoke.
"Let her go."
Liang Yue snorted coldly.
"Let her go?"
She spoke slowly.
"You must hate me to the core. I probably won't be able to leave this mansion alive either. The road to the underworld is lonely, and I'll need someone to keep me company."
As he spoke, he pushed the dagger inward a little further.
They cut open the skin on Su Yan's neck.
Instantly, bright red blood flowed down his neck.
Yuwen Xu's eyes narrowed, and his thin lips pursed even more tightly.
"Let her go, and you can leave."
Liang Yue smiled even more smugly.
"She really is your darling. You cherish her so much? You get so heartbroken and lose your composure over a little blood loss?!"
Although she was smiling, the resentment in her eyes grew stronger.
Hatred flashed in his eyes
"Let me go? No rush, she hasn't settled the matter of trying to kill me yet."
Yuwen Xu's eyes were deep and mysterious.
What do you want?
Every word he uttered seemed to be frozen solid.
Something flashed quickly in Liang Yue's eyes.
"I'll take... your life."
She spoke each word with hatred in her voice.
During this standoff.
Su Yan's tightly closed eyes twitched.
Then, I woke up.
When I opened my eyes, everything was clear.
She looked at the ropes binding her body, and the knife held to her neck, which had already been slashed open.
Yuwen Xu, standing opposite him, had a cold expression, and he was surrounded by imperial guards and archers.
Liang Yue seemed surprised that Su Yan would wake up.
To my surprise.
But thinking about it, I've never seen anyone who drank arsenic survive.
Looking at Su Yan's pale and silent appearance, it seems she is experiencing a final burst of energy before death.
Liang Yue mocked
"You're awake? Su Yan, you're really something. You've managed to make our powerful prince fall so infatuated with you."
Su Yan remained silent, her eyes expressionless.
She glanced at the bloodstains on her neck, then her clear eyes met Yuwen Xu's.
In her mind, Xiao Hua relayed Liang Yue and Yuwen Xu's conversation to her host word for word.
Everything is up to the host to decide.
After a long while, Su Yan spoke.
"You don't have to save me."
The cold, clear voice made everything crystal clear.
Upon hearing this, Yuwen Xu froze.
I don't know why, but I just felt that she was a little different.
He had assumed she would beg him to rescue her with tears in her eyes.
Normally, she has a very strong healing ability.
Yet, even the slightest injury would cause her to whine and whimper for half a day.
This time, despite the massive amount of blood loss, he merely glanced at it, remaining nonchalant.
Yuwen Xu stared at her for a long time.
He pulled a short dagger from his sleeve.
He unsheathed the sword and raised his hand.
Su Yan's eyes flickered.
She seemed to know what the man was going to do.
Almost instantly, the ropes binding him were broken.
He grabbed Liang Yue's wrist and heard a scream.
Liang Yue had broken her wrist and lay pale and miserable on the ground.
Three steps in two.
Jumping down from a high place.
He grabbed Yuwen Xu's hand.
The short dagger was already piercing his chest.
I've entered a small section of the front end.
It's not serious.
