After about a stick of incense, Qin Xiaolou felt a gust of wind blowing, and immediately a knife was pressed against his neck.From the hair, Qin Xiaolou saw Yang Tian's murderous eyes.At that moment, he didn't feel the fear of death, but rather wanted to laugh.

Yang Tian's knife didn't cut it off immediately, he hesitated for a moment, then bent down to brush the hair off Qin Xiaolou's face.The moment he saw Qin Xiaolou's face clearly, his expression was extremely astonished.

At that moment, a figure suddenly descended from the tree, and a cold light hit Yang Tian's heart.Yang Tian vaguely realized something the moment he saw Qin Xiaolou clearly, and immediately raised his knife to resist.Just hearing a "bang", the tip of the sword collided with the blade, and flames burst out all at once!

Yang Tian's move was too hasty, and before his skill was reached, he felt a shock in his chest, stepped back several times, and spat out a mouthful of blood!

Only then did Qin Xiaolou see clearly that the person who attacked was none other than Zhao Pingzhen who he thought had gone away.

Zhao Pingzhen exhausted all his strength in this blow, the sword in his hand was shaken, and he fell heavily to the ground, vomiting several mouthfuls of black blood.

Yang Tian managed to regain his composure, stood up holding the knife, and looked at Qin Xiaolou with complicated eyes: "It turns out that you are even more stupid than I thought."

Qin Xiaolou could only smile wryly.

Zhao Pingzhen's face was as pale as a piece of paper. At this time, he stopped struggling and laughed softly: "I didn't expect that we would still die together."

Qin Xiaolou originally thought that Zhao Pingzhen left him and left, but he still thought it was ridiculous, how much time would he be able to delay even if he left himself as a substitute?Only now did I realize that I was used as a bait to distract Yang Tian's attention and to find a loophole for a sneak attack.He didn't hate Zhao Pingzhen in his heart, and he was even a little relieved, because now the fifth prince died with him instead of sending him to death alone, which was a little higher than his original expectations.He knew that although Zhao Pingzhen's choice was unethical, it was indeed the best decision.From this point of view, he and Zhao Pingzhen are in the same category.

Holding the knife, Yang Tian approached the two people who fell on the ground step by step.Zhao Pingzhen is really at the end of his rope now, not to mention resisting, even speaking is very difficult.

Yang Tian walked up to Qin Xiaolou, and put the knife on his neck indifferently: "I want to cut up the scum surnamed Zhao in front of Yinghua's tomb, and use his blood to pay homage to Yinghua. Since you insist on If you die with him, then I will send you on your way first."

Qin Xiaolou smiled wryly, and suddenly felt a heat in his chest, as if the dumb acupoint had been automatically released.At that moment, his mind became hot, and he couldn't help but shouted loudly: "Han Xuzhi!!!"

"boom!"

A stone flew out of the bushes, and Yang Tian was immediately frozen and unable to move.

A young man in Tsing Yi jumped out of the bushes with a smile on his face, walked unhurriedly to Qin Xiaolou's side under Yang Tian's and Zhao Pingzhen's astonished eyes, and tapped him twice quickly with his fingers.Qin Xiaolou's acupoints were untied, and he leaned against Han Xuzhi's arms exhausted.

Han Xuzhi smiled and said, "Why do you only think of me now?"

Only then did Qin Xiaolou start to be afraid, his heart was like a drum of war, and the cold sweat oozed from his back: "When did you come?"

Han Xuzhi said: "That's right, I came when His Royal Highness tapped your acupoints and left you here."

Qin Xiaolou let out a long breath: "Why didn't you come out earlier?"

Han Xuzhi smiled and said, "I think he's hiding in a tree trying to be a hero, so we have to give him a chance to show off."

Qin Xiaolou knew that Han Xuzhi probably just wanted to watch a play, but he must be careful not to let others hurt him.He didn't say anything, just gasped for breath to calm down his emotions.

Han Xuzhi gently put Qin Xiaolou down, walked up to Yang Tian, ​​took his knife and threw it aside.

"This man wants to kill you, what are you going to do with him?" He asked Qin Xiaolou.

Qin Xiaolou shook his head: "I have to ask His Highness Fifth."

Han Xuzhi walked up to Zhao Pingzhen and knelt down again, looked at his face, took his pulse, and said with a tusk, "It's a dying lamp." He turned to Qin Xiaolou again, "He took you As a bait, although he never left you to escape, but he was unable to save you, and caused you to almost die, how do you deal with him?"

Zhao Pingzhen's face changed slightly - he was not afraid, in fact, when he saw Han Xuzhi, he knew that he was out of danger this time.It's just that Han Xuzhi's defiant attitude makes him extremely dissatisfied. No one has ever dared to comment on the life and death of his fifth prince like this.

Qin Xiaolou said concisely: "Please save him."

Han Xuzhi smiled: "Okay."

Han Xuzhi used internal strength to force out the poison in Zhao Pingzhen's body, fed him another Qingling Pill, and patted his face with a smile: "The next step is to see your own good luck."

Zhao Pingzhen glared at him coldly, his tense nerves finally relaxed, he let out a deep breath, and passed out.

Han Xuzhi hugged Qin Xiaolou: "I'll take you out."

Qin Xiaolou looked worriedly at the comatose Zhao Pingzhen and the immobilized Yang Tian, ​​and Han Xuzhi said: "Don't worry, I left a mark for her guards, they are nearby, just now I heard the movement here again, once again Zhu Xiangnei will definitely arrive. Yang Tian’s acupoints will take an hour at the earliest to unlock.” He grinned wickedly: “He left you as bait for Yang Tian, ​​and after a while he woke up and saw I must be terrified to be alone with Yang Tian. This is his retribution."

Qin Xiaolou moved his lips, but finally smiled: "Okay. Take me away."

——At that moment, he suddenly didn't want to pretend anymore.

Han Xuzhi walked out of the forest with Qin Xiaolou in his arms. Qin Xiaolou leaned in his arms and hugged his neck in a very intimate gesture: "Why are you here?"

Han Xuzhi said: "I asked your brother where you were, and he told me, so I came after you."

Qin Xiaolou smiled faintly: "Thank you."

Han Xuzhi smiled and said, "I saved you, don't you intend to promise me with your body?"

Qin Xiaolou was stunned, and his eyes rolled up: "I promise you with your body... okay."

Han Xuzhi looked at him in surprise, his eyes sparkling: "Are you serious?"

Qin Xiaolou's eyebrows were even more curved: "If you take it seriously...I will take it seriously."

Han Xuzhi burst into a bright smile, used lightness kung fu to fly, and came to the edge of the forest.Qin Xiaolou felt a flash in front of his eyes, and was crushed by Han Xuzhi on a tree in an instant.Han Xuzhi pressed his body against him, kissed his bright red lips with a smile, and whispered his name: "Qin Xiaolou..."

Qin Xiaolou's watery eyes showed his handsome appearance, which directly reflected in his heart.

It took Han Xuzhi three months of stalking to win Qin Xiaolou's heart.

Qin Xiaolou once said that he and Han Xuzhi are not in the same way, and this sentence is quite correct.Therefore, he was helpless against such a sudden change as Han Xuzhi, too late to guard against and powerless to resist, so he fell too quickly.

When Han Xuzhi took off his clothes and kissed his chest tenderly, he grabbed Han Xuzhi's hand firmly and asked tremblingly, "Can you take me and Cheng Xue out of the capital?"—— After he climbed those noble people, he didn't ask anything, and he didn't ask for anything, because he knew too well what he could get from those people.However, he didn't know anything about Han Xuzhi, and he didn't know anything about the world behind Han Xuzhi.But he is still willing to give up the fifth prince and everything he has obtained for this person, just for the impulsive and illusory youthful love.

Han Xuzhi replied, "From now on, I will be wherever you are."

Qin Xiaolou let go of his hand, and finally just sighed softly—this time, he admitted his failure.

After returning to the capital, Han Xuzhi has completely changed from a gentleman on Liang to a guest of honor.

How Zhao Pingzhen dealt with Yang Tian, ​​Qin Xiaolou didn't care at all, because that person's life and death had nothing to do with him, even if he had let him live.Later, Zhao Pingzhen sent someone to invite Qin Xiaolou, Qin Xiaolou claimed to be sick three times in a row, and Zhao Pingzhen's envoy never came again.

Two months later, Qin Xiaolou submitted a memorial in the early court, claiming to be ill and requesting to return home.The emperor suppressed his resignation and did not approve it on the spot.

That night, Gu Xiaojun, a bachelor, visited the Qin Mansion in person, but Qin Xiaolou closed the door to thank the guests.

After dinner, Qin Xiaolou came to Qin Chengxue's room, looked at the paintings he had made in the past few days, and gave some comments.Qin Chengxue's heart was not on the painting, she silently waited for Qin Xiaolou to finish commenting, then took the painting away from him: "Brother, stay with me tonight."

Qin Xiaolou was startled, and smiled softly: "What's wrong?"

Qin Chengxue just shook her head and insisted: "You sleep with me tonight."

Qin Xiaolou thought for a while, then smiled dotingly and said, "Okay."

He greeted Han Xuzhi, went back to Qin Chengxue's room, blew out the candles, and lay down beside him.

In the darkness, Qin Chengxue turned over, gropingly grabbed Qin Xiaolou's hand, and pressed it to her lower abdomen.

Qin Xiaolou was taken aback, and immediately calmed down, trying to withdraw his hand, but Qin Chengxue grabbed it tightly.

Qin Xiaolou sighed: "Cheng Xue, go to sleep."

Qin Chengxue hugged him, and pressed her cheek against Qin Xiaolou's face. Only then did Qin Xiaolou realize that his face was wet and he was crying.

Qin Chengxue choked and said, "Brother, don't you want me?"

Qin Xiaolou sighed, and hugged him back: "How come, I will never leave you for the rest of my life."

Qin Chengxue said: "You want Han Xuzhi, not me."

Qin Xiaolou caressed his back: "No matter what, I will never want you."

Qin Chengxue grabbed his hand again and pressed it against her own root through the clothes: "Brother, help me."

Qin Chengxue made this request for the first time a year ago. Qin Xiaolou couldn't resist him at that time, so he made it for him in a daze.Later, although he felt ashamed, Qin Chengxue clung to him tightly, and he was unwilling to break his brother's heart.Qin Xiaolou knew that his own brother had such unethical thoughts towards him, and he also liked Qin Chengxue. At that time, he thought that he would probably not like anyone else, and would only stay with Qin Chengxue for the rest of his life. .Besides, he was in a very sad state of mind, and he was willing to drag someone to accompany him in hell, so he gradually developed such a morally unethical relationship with Qin Chengxue.

Ever since Han Xuzhi broke into the Qin residence, Qin Xiaolou and Qin Chengxue have been less and less intimate for fear of Han Xuzhi's peeping.Now that he has made up his mind with Han Xuzhi, he naturally wants to sever such a relationship.

Qin Xiaolou withdrew his hand forcefully and said, "Don't make trouble."

Qin Chengxue pleaded tremblingly: "Brother...do you really want him to abandon me?"

Qin Xiaolou was cruel, and said: "You are my brother, I shouldn't do such a thing with you."

Qin Chengxue hugged him, tears streaming down the pillow: "I saw you making out with him in the backyard... If you like him, don't want me."

Qin Xiaolou sighed: "Cheng Xue, this is different. You are my younger brother, and I will never abandon you no matter what."

Qin Chengxue shook her head desperately: "No, brother, I love you."

Qin Xiaolou stopped talking.

Qin Chengxue pleaded: "I don't like Han Xuzhi, brother, you should leave him."

In the past, when Qin Chengxue said such things, Qin Xiaolou would always coax him.But this time, Qin Xiaolou said cruelly: "You don't like him, but I like him."

Qin Chengxue was struck by lightning!

Suddenly, he got out of bed in a panic, and walked out the door incoherently: "Gu, Grand Master Gu is still waiting outside. I don't hate him anymore. I'd rather have him. I'll let him in."

Qin Xiaolou pulled Qin Chengxue back, already a little angry: "Cheng Xue! Don't make trouble anymore!"

Qin Chengxue looked at him in despair, and after a while, covered her face and began to cry: "Brother..."

Qin Xiaolou was so sad that he didn't know what to do, but he didn't want to spoil Qin Chengxue any more, so his heart broke, and he said, "Go to sleep by yourself, I'll go back to sleep."

Qin Chengxue rushed forward and hugged him from behind, desperate: "If my brother doesn't want me, what's the point of my life!"

Qin Xiaolou said coldly: "How do you think I got your life back? If you despise yourself so much, you will just think that all my hard work was in vain." After saying that, he pushed Qin Chengxue's hand away cruelly, walk away.

Qin Chengxue fell to the ground, feeling that his sky had collapsed.

One night three days later, Zhao Pingzhen locked himself in his room to read without dinner.

Someone knocked on the door suddenly, Zhao Pingzhen said coldly: "Come in."

The ones who came in were the spies he sent to the Qin residence.

While flipping through the book, Zhao Pingzhen casually asked, "Did Gu Xiaojun go again tonight?"

The spies said: "Yes... Grand Master Gu has been standing outside the Qin Mansion for three nights, and Qin Xiaolou hasn't even opened the door."

Zhao Pingzhen sneered: "No wonder Gu Xiaojun looks dissatisfied every morning when he goes to court, Qin Xiaolou is so cruel."

He put down the book, thought for a while, and said: "Send a message to the Minister of the Ministry of Officials for me. You must delay it no matter what. You are not allowed to let Qin Xiaolou go back to his hometown. Even if he is absent from work and does not go to the Imperial Academy, he must be kept." His official status."

The spy said: "Yes."

After the spies left, Zhao Pingzhen was so irritable that he couldn't read the book, stomped back and forth in the house for a while, put on his coat and went out with two guards.

When he came to the gate of the Qin Mansion, he saw Gu Xiaojun sitting pitifully with his back against the gate of the mansion, his usual serious and cold image of a scholar was gone.

Zhao Pingzhen sneered, feeling that Gu Xiaojun had really disgraced the officials of the court, as well as the men.He bypassed the main entrance, came to the side entrance, and ordered the servants of the Qin Mansion to report.

After a while, Qin Xiaolou greeted him personally.

Zhao Pingzhen asked: "Are you going to resign?"

Qin Xiaolou smiled, his brows and eyes were much more lively than before: "Yes."

Zhao Pingzhen didn't argue: "Are you angry with me?"

Qin Xiaolou raised his eyebrows and smiled: "No."

Zhao Pingzhen smiled meaninglessly, but his eyes were cold: "I didn't expect you to like someone."

Qin Xiaolou said: "Perhaps His Highness the Fifth Highness will have such a day."

Zhao Pingzhen said indifferently, "Really."

At this point, Zhao Pingzhen suddenly didn't want to say any more, as if saying anything else would show that he was reluctant to part with Qin Xiaolou and lose face of his fifth prince.

Zhao Pingzhen said: "You can do it yourself."

Qin Xiaolou smiled and said, "I understand."

Zhao Pingzhen hesitated for a moment, then turned and left.

On the carriage back home, Zhao Pingzhen suddenly became angry for no reason, but there was nothing around him for him to vent.The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and he thought bitterly: I want to see what will happen to a heartless person like Qin Xiaolou who likes someone alone!

Thinking about it this way, he felt better again, as if he had seen Qin Xiaolou kneeling at his feet and crying.
