C250 Situation (2/2)
Feeling the intense cold coming from within her body, Lin Chuyue took a big step forward and turned around. In her hand, she stabbed the scalpel that was reflecting the dark light at Master of Ming Xiao Pavilion's heart.
”Pavilion Master, please speak frankly. Such a close distance would give me the urge to kill you.”
Master of Ming Xiao Pavilion looked down at the girl in front of him who was holding a slender silver blade that was a threat to his life. His smile gradually became wider and wider, and he said, ”This sovereign really wants you here.”
Her words revealed a trace of coldness and a trace of ambiguity, but Lin Chuyue's words caused all the hairs on her body to stand on end.
”I also want to take your life here.”
Withdrawing the scalpel in her hand, Lin Chuyue took a few steps back in alert. When she reached the spiral staircase, the voice of the Master of Ming Xiao Pavilion came from behind.
”After three days, promptly send the Jade Key to the village of Yao, fifteen kilometers away. If you make a mistake in the timing, Yue'er should know this sovereign's methods.”
Lin Chuyue did not speak, and turned to leave the inn.
Before returning to the Lin Mansion, Lin Chuyue wandered the streets for a while to calm the emotions in her heart.
She was thinking, should she hand over the Jade Key and let them be safe?
This was the first time that Lin Chuyue couldn't figure it out, and it was also impossible for her to understand it. It was as if there was a layer of mist blocking her vision, making her unable to see the path in front of her.
”We'll deal with it when it's time.”
It was the same old saying. What was to come would come eventually, and it couldn't be avoided.
It was not her nature to secretly mock her sentiments.
After returning to the Lin Mansion, Lin Chuyue took a bath and immediately laid on the huge bed. Since Feng Yan still had not returned, it was probably to discuss political matters at the palace.
Just as he was thinking about this, the closed wooden door creaked and Feng Yan, who was dressed in his purple python robe, walked in.
Looking at Lin Chuyue who was lying on the bed and waiting for him to return, Feng Yan walked over to the bedside in large strides, bent over and kissed her forehead.
”You haven't slept yet?”
Lin Chuyue shook her head, her hands on Feng Yan's shoulders, ”I just saw Master of Ming Xiao Pavilion return, I'm tired, so I'll go take a bath first.”
”Alright, wait for This King.”
Fifteen minutes later, Feng Yan, dressed in long white clothes, was lying beside Lin Chuyue. Looking at the bashful woman in his arms, all of the fatigue from the past day had completely dissipated.
”About the Jade Key?”
”Yeah, three days later in Yao Village, at the location for the Jade Key trade. Why do you think Situ Wuyu is so stupid?
Lin Chuyue never thought that Situ Wuyu would cover the entire Master of Ming Xiao Pavilion, so much that his plans were all in disarray. I wonder how this guy took advantage of Lin Xian'er back then. ”
”In three days, This King will accompany you to Yao Village.”
”Okay, what is Feng Yi looking for you for? Has something happened recently?”
In this period of time before their marriage, the number of times Feng Yan had visited the Imperial Palace had clearly increased. Based on Feng Yi's precaution towards Feng Yan, it was natural for him to avoid coming into contact with political matters. But today, he would summon Feng Yan from time to time, if something were to happen?
”Guess.”
Hearing Feng Yan's mysterious tone, Lin Chuyue blinked her eyes, ”About the treasure map?”
Lin Chuyue had actually not been able to understand why she still went to the Imperial Palace to fake her treasure map even though she knew that the real treasure map was in her hands.
What exactly was this all about? What was Master of Ming Xiao Pavilion planning?
