Lu Xiaofeng's Jade Bi

Perhaps there should have been, but not now.

After Sun Xiuqing's death, Ximen Chuuxue only had his sword in his heart, he would not be swayed by his children's love, he would not hesitate about anything other than the sword, he was already a person who was born for the sword through and through.

Although Ximen Chuuxue is not the person with the highest martial arts in the Jianghu, his persistence and single-mindedness are enough to make him invincible in swordsmanship.

Regardless of whether Yu Bi knew the outcome of the decisive battle in advance, he would bet on Ximen Chuuxue to win.He had put all his net worth on it, but he calculated that his own capital alone was not enough, so he wanted to drag Lan Jian into the water.One must know that the financial power of Peach Blossom Island is in the hands of Lan Jian. Now it is different from the past. He must pluck a handful of feathers from this iron rooster, otherwise, his future will be in jeopardy.

"Don't even think about it, even if you trick me here, I won't give you a penny." Lan Jian looked down at Yubi without any compromise.

Yubi had no choice but to stare at him, and said viciously: "Your benefits are indispensable!"

"Not negotiable."

"Blue Sword!" Yu Bi suddenly shouted at his name angrily, the expression on his face changed from pleading to ordering, "Although Master entrusts you to take charge of the affairs of the island, no matter how you say it, I am also your master, you are just my master." It's just a guard, you have to give me as much as I want you to give me! Now is not the time to restrain me! Don't force me to fight with you!"

At this time, Lan Jian realized that Yu Bi's serious attitude towards this game was not the playful mentality of the past, but a real fight for big with small things.

Suddenly there was a boiling noise in the gambling house, and the noise from inside gradually covered the noise on the street, forcibly tore out the impulse and desire in the bottom of the heart, and mixed it with shouting and swearing, causing people to have a kind of "what is life and death?" Fear, give it a go" pride.

Lan Jian was stared at by Yu Bi's dark eyes, and the persistence in those eyes shot straight into his heart.He finally couldn't help but said: "If you lose, what should you do?"

Knowing that Lan Jian's heart was softening, Yubi's eyes sparkled, "I won't lose." He spread his palm flat in front of Lan Jian, waiting for him to take out the banknote.

Lan Jian sighed helplessly, took out a stack of banknotes from his bosom, and gently placed them in Yubi's hands.Seeing Yu Bi twisting her body and kicking her feet, she rushed into the crowd of gamblers, holding up the banknotes and shouting: "Bet on Ximen Chuuxue! Bet on Ximen Chuuxue! All bet on Ximen Chuuxue! Get out of the way, I will bet on Ximen Chuuxue!"

Lan Jian has no way to compare the sword skills of Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue, in his eyes, they are absolutely equal, no one can beat the other, and no one can kill the other.So now he is more puzzled than helpless, why is Yubi so sure that Ximen Chuuxue will win?

He shook his head, not understanding Yubi's choice.Shaking his head like this, Lan Jian's eyes fell on a man in white, just like when he saw him for the first time, when he saw this man standing there, he could only see this man and the sword in his hand, but not the man in white. Can't see anything else.

This person is Ye Gucheng.

Yubi finally squeezed out from the crowd of people who were pushing and shoving, the blue coat was spread over his shoulders, and the belt was hanging crookedly, he supported the crown with one hand, pulled up the placket with the other, and walked out with a smile on his face, But suddenly nailed at the door.

It seemed that it was Ye Gucheng's two gazes that pinned him down.

Yu Bi stood in a daze, not sure if Ye Gucheng heard the person he bet on just now.Probably not, if he heard it, he should have drawn his sword by now.

But Ye Gucheng not only did not draw his sword, but also said to Yubi: "The emperor is looking for you."

Yubi nodded, and immediately followed Ye Gucheng back to the other courtyard.The other courtyard was still quiet and deserted. The emperor sat under the big tree where Yubi often lay, savoring the pastries and tea from Hefangzhai.When Yubi saw the things on the stone table, she was a little dazed.

The emperor smiled at him and said, "What's the matter? Don't you like to eat these? I bought them specially, but you still have this expression."

"Who likes it!" Yubi blurted out, stepped forward in two or three steps, and sat opposite the emperor with his clothes lifted, and said angrily, "What are you doing here?"

The emperor raised his eyebrows, seeing Yu Bi's displeased look, and knowing that he had offended him the day before yesterday, he pulled out a long and narrow sandalwood box from his sleeve, pushed it in front of him, and said, "Here for you."

Yubi glanced at the box and then at the emperor, his eyes were full of undisguised suspicion. When he opened the box, he found a stack of bank notes, each of which was worth 1 taels. !Yubi couldn't help widening her eyes, and looked at the emperor from head to toe. The dragon crown was still the flying dragon play ball, the clothes were still the apricot yellow uniform, and the jade pendant was still the square pei with dragon patterns. Generous?It's like changing the core.

"Looking at you like this, it seems that you don't really want it. If that's the case, I won't force you..."

"Don't! I've taken it all out! Why are you taking it back!" Yubi shoved the banknote into her bosom, but she didn't want the box.

The emperor sneered and said, "You've practiced your kung fu faster with Sikong Zhaixing."

Yu Bi ignored him, and said: "I will borrow these rights from you, and after earning them back, you will have a share."

"I can remember it," said the emperor.Then he bid farewell and left, as if he really made this trip just to give money to Yubi.

Later, the emperor would go to other courtyards every now and then, sometimes playing a game of Go with Yubi, sometimes drinking tea and admiring chrysanthemums with him, sometimes chatting about anecdotes about the world, in short, he was much closer to Yubi than before. many.

Until one night, when there was desolate rain in the sky, the room was scented with the fragrance of tranquilizing medicine, and the window was beating the cold autumn wind, Ye Gucheng knocked on Yubi's door.

The person who knocked on the door was usually Lan Jian, and the time was usually in the morning. He had to make sure that Yubi got out of bed before lunch, so as not to be too embarrassing.

But at this time, at a time when it was not suitable to chat with someone, Ye Gucheng knocked on Yubi's door.Yubi looked at Ye Gucheng suspiciously, but didn't invite him into the house.

"City Master Ye, is there something wrong?"

Ye Gucheng stood outside the door, looked at Yubi indifferently, and said, "Ximen Chuuxue requested that the duel time be changed to September [-]th."

Yu Bi was startled, but her expression remained calm, "Oh. Then do you agree?"

Ye Gucheng nodded, and said again: "By the way, I changed the location to the top of the Forbidden City."

"Ah, um." Yubi smiled unnaturally, raised her head and said, "Thank you for coming to tell me, I will go to watch the battle."

Ye Gucheng didn't answer, and he didn't need to answer such a topic.He just stared at Yubi for a while, and asked, "Why did he change the time?"

Yu Bi was stunned, and seemed to have just remembered that in the original novel, Ximen Chuuxue changed the time because Sun Xiuqing was pregnant, but now there is no such thing as Sun Xiuqing, why did he request to change the time of the duel?Yubi originally thought that this time it would be Ye Gucheng who proposed to change the time and place first.

Thinking about it this way, Yu Bi was really puzzled. "I, I don't know. Maybe he has something important to do." After he finished speaking, he looked up at Ye Gucheng, trying to find clues from him, but he was stunned when he looked up.Because Ye Gucheng looked at Yubi with very unfriendly eyes at this time, and his expression was also terribly cold.

This murderous look was exactly the same as Ye Gucheng who was in the carriage when he first arrived in the capital to meet the emperor.At that time, Yubi was sure that Ye Gucheng had murderous intentions towards Yubi.

So what now?Ye Gucheng doesn't have a sword in his hand now, so what method will he use to kill Yubi?
