The tone was casual, but it contained a strong sense of questioning.
The night was blurry, and the swaying firelight cast a dazzling light on his face, and even reflected a few small flames in his eyes, but it was impossible to see the disappointment and dull pain in his eyes.
His concubine, his son, turned out to be the phoenix who wanted to kill him. The moment he regained his memory, he couldn't wait to leave...
So what's the deal between them?
What is the relationship these days?
"Xuanyuan Jin, if you have the guts, come over and challenge me!" Ruthless impulsively pushed Zi Sang aside and whispered, "Fenghuang, you run first!"
This is an instinct - in a critical moment, the ruthless first reaction is to protect Phoenix! Even if he died in the palace today, as long as Phoenix remembered him, as long as Phoenix could leave safely, he would have no regrets!
But obviously, in Xuanyuan Jin's ears, this sentence became another kind of provocation!
Let her run away first?
Oh, who allowed any of them to leave?
"Don't even think about leaving." He said coldly, slowly and calmly moving forward, looking at Qing Qing with an arrogant attitude, "I... have no interest in a duel with you."
It was obvious that he was planning to bully the minority and directly use force to solve the problem!
As soon as these words came out, the archers lying on the city wall immediately became more vigilant. They drew their bows and pointed in the ruthless direction, ready to attack.
Wu Qing's expression froze, and his whole body immediately tensed up. He raised his head and looked around at the people and horses, analyzing in his mind - there are so many people, and they are shooting arrows from all around, it is impossible to leave...
Not to mention his current physical condition, even when his martial arts is fully restored, he will not be able to escape unscathed!
Zisang gritted his teeth, and Tong Yao clenched his fists, with embarrassment on his face: She really didn't want to leave! But Wuqing was innocent, and she wanted to send Qingwu out of the palace...Xuanyuan Jin would be angry or something, after Qingqing left
, can’t you go after her again?
"What do you want?" After a stalemate for a while, Qingwu spoke first. He licked his dry lips tiredly, and there was an obvious concession in his tone.
"She is my concubine, do you understand?" Xuanyuan Jin's eyes stayed on Zi Sang's face, talking to Qing Qing, but it was more like reminding Zi Sang that as his concubine, she was supporting another man.
What a sin it is to think about other men!
Wu Qing understands people, and naturally understands what he means instantly!
Since he can't escape unscathed now, and he can't hold the Phoenix to safety, then...
Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and suddenly pushed Zi Sang in the direction of Xuanyuan Jin: "I will return her to you. You take your concubine back, and those archers will be left to deal with me.
alright!"
When speaking, he deliberately emphasized the word "concubine" and gnashed his teeth to hide the unwillingness and pain in his heart.
Xuanyuan Jin's expression softened slightly, waiting for Zi Sang to express his stance - this was the only chance he gave her!
But there is something called "loyalty" at work!
With Zi Sang's personality, how could he abandon Xuanyuan Jin at this time?
"I won't leave!" she shouted impulsively, instantly angering Xuanyuan Jin, "If we want to go, let's go together, if we want to die, let's die together!"
Like the friendship between comrades-in-arms, in Xuanyuan Jin's eyes, it turned out to be a life-and-death mandarin duck. There was a kind of shock that "we were born in the same quilt and died in the same hole", which became the biggest irony to him!
Did she choose to be ruthless after all?
Xuanyuan Jin's eyes dimmed, and he calmly stepped back, returned to the door, and looked at the two people in the center of the field coldly: "Zisang, you have one last chance. I ask you, can you pass?"
Standing in the center means choosing to be ruthless, which is death; coming to his side means life.
A few steps, a choice, involving life and death.
"Xuanyuan Jin, you are crazy!" Zi Sang finally couldn't help shouting angrily, "Let him leave the palace, I promise..."
"Are you allowed to call me by my name at will?" There was no emotion in his low voice. It seemed that the deep affection he had for her no longer existed, and he was completely different from the Xuanyuan Jin he had been a few days ago.
"You..." She looked at the man hidden in the light and suddenly realized that she didn't recognize him.
So strange.
In the imperial power, he was so arrogant that he couldn't even listen to her complete sentence!
"Phoenix, don't ask for him!" Wu Qing called her while tugging on her sleeve. Although his face was pale, his face looked satisfied, "It's good for us to die here, right?"
Zisang's mind was empty, and she just felt that her heart was very confused - she didn't like the person she had vowed to in the past, but the person she fell in love with now was completely different...
Where will she go? It would be better to just die.
"Okay, then let's die here." Qingqian smiled, and she shrugged indifferently, regaining her free and easy attitude that belonged to the phoenix, "Anyway, there is only one breath left between living and dying."
"Fire the arrow!"
As an emperor, you must have the domineering and ruthless nature of an emperor. He said that staying would mean death, so he was either joking or really dying!
A dense rain of arrows flew over, and Zi Sang took the iron bar next to him to block it, but his ruthless face was always filled with satisfaction - for a killer like him, life and death have long been indifferent, and if he can get what he wants, that is The biggest goal in life!
So, even if it was a misunderstanding that Zisang chose him, he was willing to do so!
His body rolled up, and when Zisang couldn't resist, he pushed her into his arms, wrapped her with his whole body, and used his body to resist the rain of arrows...
