The sword edge did not penetrate Xiao Yuyan's heart.
It just brushed past his face and cut off a strand of black hair on his face. But even so, Xiao Yuyan was greatly stimulated. His peach-blossom eyes completely lost the usual ruthlessness, but Staring in shock as the sword flew towards him, he stared at the thing that scratched his face.
He could even feel that death had passed him by in the last moment.
He believed that Xiao Qi would not kill him, but his action showed his attitude.
Xiao Yuyan stepped back in defeat, staggered and leaned against the wall beside him, staring at the ground, unable to recover for a long time.
The emperor... is absolutely crazy!
Does he know what he is doing? For a snake, the emperor actually...
The entire palace fell into a dead silence because of Xiao Qi's actions. Even Concubine Lan, who was extremely frightened, stopped crying and begging. No one knew better than her what that woman and Xiao Yuyan meant to Xiao Qi, but he turned out to be because of that. A snake took action against Xiao Yuyan.
Your Majesty, he...
Are they not even as good as that snake?
But she killed the snake, does that mean that she... will definitely be worse off than dead?
Shivering, she shook her head and backed away slowly.
No, the emperor will not be so cruel, never.
But Xiao Qi seemed to be aware of her actions and slowly approached her, with a cruel smile on his stern face.
He waved his finger outward, and the imperial guards immediately walked out and began to pull out the palace servants who were on duty tonight... For a while, there were cries and struggles outside the palace.
The sound was like needles piercing Concubine Lan's skin densely, and her terror reached the extreme.
Xiao Qi squatted down and looked at her embarrassed and restless look. His long, jade-like fingertips slowly slid across her face. Finally, they came to her neck and slowly tightened them. He looked at her breathless and looked at her. Like a dying fish struggling and suffering, this seemed to please him. His face was close to hers. It had never been so close. She could even feel his breath on her face, ambiguous but cruel: "I I will use your blood to pay tribute to her one by one."
"emperor……
She stretched out her hands in pain, but she was powerless.
His voice was still gentle, but terrifying, "She was so lonely when she walked alone. Someone must accompany her. Did you think I would let you die so easily?" He suddenly smiled strangely and murmured. , "It can't be that easy." After saying that, he slowly stood up, still holding her neck in his hand, lifted her up, and slowly let go of her hand when she was in mid-air.
With a "bang" sound, Concubine Lan fell to the ground. A large amount of fresh air rushed into her lungs, and she coughed and breathed desperately.
After taking a breath, when she raised her head again, what she faced was an extremely sharp sword.
Xiao Qi held the other end of the sword quietly, with scarlet indifference in his eyes.
He moved the blade and slowly started to slide it upward from her neck to her face. Wherever the blade passed, tiny drops of blood rolled out...
She was extremely scared.
Just when she thought she was dead, the sword that was cutting her skin suddenly stopped. She raised her head in horror, only to see Xiao Qi's originally calm face frozen in place. The handsome face shrouded in a sinister atmosphere was stunned at the moment, keeping the posture of holding the sword motionless, but being so close, she found strangely that his hands were trembling.
"Hiss..." Suddenly, a very slight sound came from Xiaoqi's chest.
