Offer a tripod
Chapter 146 Li Luan
Yuan Jing's stomach was full of depression, and he only hated that he had no way to vent it.After leaving the tent, all he saw was Chu Yu's old department.The previous gossip about them had spread a lot. As soon as what happened at the banquet last night spread, everyone saw him, and there was a bit of indescribable meaning in their eyes.Yuan Jing was annoyed by what they saw, so he casually took a bay red pony and headed out of the city.
Fusang City drank together all night, the officers and soldiers guarding the city were drunk, and only felt a figure flash in front of them, and when they looked again, they disappeared. He felt uneasy, and asked, "Oh, did someone pass by just now?"
The man was also in a daze, yawning and slurring his words: "No, right? It's still not bright yet, besides, didn't a centurion enter the city last night, saying that there were bandits from the Western Wei Dynasty outside, begging our city lord to send troops to suppress it?" Bandit, which one is not afraid of death, dare to run out alone?"
Another person interjected: "Last night, the city lord and the prince were drinking, so they were arranged to live in the posthouse first. The news hasn't been delivered yet, right?"
The man earlier shook his head, and replied without much concern: "Then I don't know."
The winter snow has not yet melted, and a few bold hares sneak out of the hole to eat the dry grass.In the early spring of northern Xinjiang, the wind was bitterly cold, and Yuan Jing ran wildly for most of the day, brandishing his whip in the cold wind, before the suffocation in his heart subsided a little.Perhaps because of the war, he had been out of Fusang Pass for so long, and he didn't see any caravans along the way.Thinking of the lively scenes of Fusangguan in the old days that I heard from others, I feel depressed again.He hadn't eaten since last night, and he was a little dizzy at this time after riding on horseback for a day, but when he thought of going back to face that person, he immediately felt disgusted, so he simply wandered around recklessly.
Today is a cloudy day, with dark clouds covering the sky, Yuan Jing walked for a day in the cold and hungry, and it was near evening before he saw a village.When I entered, I saw that there was no one on the street, the doors and windows of every house were closed, and the silence was almost eerie.He vaguely heard a cough coming from a small window nearby, so he went up and knocked on the door, only knocked once, and then heard a "bang" inside, as if something had broken.
Someone looked out through the crack of the door, and said in a flustered voice, "Who is it?"
Yuan Jing took a step back to make him see more clearly: "I'm passing by, I want to come in and ask for a drink."
There was no reply for a while, Yuan Jing waited for a while, guessing that the family didn't like strangers, so he didn't force it, took the little red horse and left.Before he took two steps, he heard a "squeak", and the wooden door opened slightly. Yuan Jing turned his head and saw a seven or eight-year-old child lying on the door and peeping at him.The two looked at each other for a while, and the child turned around and said, "Brother, it's not from Wei."
Yuan Jing was invited in by them, and only then did he know that someone had found Wei Kou's trail near the village. They had harmed the people in the neighboring villages before, and the villagers were terrified, so they had to stay behind closed doors in order to protect themselves.When Yuan Jing heard this, the first thought in his mind was: since this group of people showed their faces, they will definitely come again, and after hastily spent some tea and rice, they will go back to the city to transfer troops.The owner of the house is a young man who fell ill after winter and is still resting in bed.Seeing Yuanjing's luxurious clothes and extraordinary temperament, and hearing that he came from Fusang Pass, his attitude became more respectful and polite. Stay one night and go back tomorrow.
Seeing that a heavy rain is coming, it is really inconvenient to travel at night, Yuan Jing could only say: "Then I will disturb you."
Xu Shi was very tired during the day, and as soon as he closed his eyes, he fell into a deep sleep, and he didn't hear the thunder outside.Around midnight, he was woken up by a noise, and when he opened his eyes, there was a big fire outside, and even the windows were flushed red.Yuan Jing went down to the ground with bare feet, and through the crack of the window, he saw billowing black smoke rushing up to the sky. Under the haze of the sky, Wei soldiers wearing armor and slashing with knives rushed into the crowd like ghosts from hell.
Just at the moment of horror, the door was suddenly pushed open heavily, and the child rushed in and said, "My lord, Wei Bing has come in! Let's go!"
They helped the patient and fled outside the village.The whole village was in chaos. The soldiers of Wei set fire to it, and all the villagers were driven to the street. Both exits were guarded with knives. .Wei Jun searched for herbal medicine supplies from house to house. When he saw women, children, old and young, he swung a knife and chopped them down. Adult men were tied up with tendon ropes and dragged behind horses for fun.
The child took the rein of the horse and handed it to Yuan Jing, raised his head and said, "My lord, you go first." The Patriarch also urged him repeatedly from behind.Yuan Jing was sweating anxiously, and said: "Let's go together!" He lifted his arm and carried the child onto the horse's back. Before he could help his brother, a Wei soldier said loudly: "Then There are more!" While speaking, an iron arrow with flaming tail feathers shot over, hitting the young man's heart, and the young man cried out mournfully: "Brother!"
The young man's mouth and nose were bleeding, and he only pushed them lightly, and then fell to the ground and died.Seeing several Wei soldiers rushing towards him, Yuan Jing quickly sniffed under his breath, closed his eyes, took off his cloak, covered his body, jumped, and galloped away.Arrows rained continuously from behind, Yuan Jing hugged the trembling child tightly in his arms, and fled for his life with his body fully bent on the horse's back.The Wei soldier from before couldn't hit him with one blow, so he blew his whistle, summoned three or five companions, and chased him closely.
The child heard the sound of the horse's hooves getting closer, sobbing: "They are about to catch up, will we...will we die?"
The foot strength of the red horse under the crotch is far inferior to that of the iron cavalry of the Western Wei Dynasty, and it is only a matter of time before it is caught up.Yuan Jing subconsciously pressed the mechanism on his wrist, and with a movement of his fingers, he remembered that the crossbow had been left in Chu Yu's camp. He cursed bitterly, and said through gnashing of teeth, "No!" After saying that, a thought suddenly flashed: Yes, it is others who hurt me and hurt me!Why should I die!As soon as this thought came out, a strong desire to survive rushed out of his chest, and Chu Yu's passing face became less hateful.
Just when he was distracted, he suddenly saw a cliff lying in front of him, about three or four zhang away, with clouds and mist shrouded below it, more than a hundred feet deep, the red horse was afraid and stopped moving.Wei Bing was close at hand, taking advantage of this opportunity, a cracking whip flew over, biting Yuan Jing's arm firmly.Yuan Jing drew out his dagger and slashed at random a few times. Unexpectedly, the whip was mixed with refined steel, and he slashed continuously for a while.He said decisively: "Hold tight! Go to Fusang Pass, find... Find City Master Sumeru!" With a twist of his wrist, he stabbed the horse with a knife. The red horse suffered from the pain and became mad, with its head and neck raised, and headed towards the opposite bank. Leap away.
When it left the ground on all fours, Yuan Jing also flew backwards, and he fell to the ground with his head up, gasping for breath in pain, almost vomiting blood from the shock.The leader, Wei Jun, got off his horse and whipped him a few times angrily: "I think you are still running!" Yuan Jing raised his hand to block it a few times, and the man kicked him over, hitting the back of his head. When it's dark, you don't know anything.
He didn't know how long he had slept, but he woke up with difficulty amidst a burst of low cries.The surroundings were pitch black, with faint skylight shining through from the outside. At that time, the body was shivering with cold, and the back of the head was even more painful like twitching.Someone held a dirty, broken water bag in his mouth and gave him some water.Yuan Jing said weakly: "Where is this?" The man shook his head in the darkness, and after a while, he heard the sound of leather boots stamping on the ground, and someone lifted the black cloth off their heads .
Yuan Jing's eyes hurt from the sun, and he subconsciously wanted to raise his hand to block it, but his hands were tied behind his back, so he had to give up.Seven or eight men were imprisoned in this square iron cage. At this moment, they were driven out with whips and sent to a dilapidated stable. Many people were tied up inside. Too much torture, people's eyes are numb.Wei Bing drove them to a place cursing, and those who had hidden possessions before were found and beaten.
Yuan Jing's hands were tied, and he didn't even have room to dodge, so he could only dodge with his head down.At this time, I saw a military general rushing over, and the one who beat people back, said to the crowd: "Are any of you able to write?" Wei Bing asked curiously, "Where is Captain Wen?" The general sighed: "He The injury was too serious, I went there last night, the general himself didn’t want to start writing, so he asked me to find someone to replace him.” Seeing that the crowd didn’t answer, he stabbed the crowd with his saber: “I’m asking you something!”
Most of these people are villagers from the countryside, who don't know a single word, and they all looked at each other in blank dismay when they heard the words.After a moment of stalemate, a weak voice said: "I will."
The general waved his hand and lifted Yuan Jing out.Yuan Jing's chest was in pain and he was about to vomit, so he ate something and was pushed to the front of the small case.The general took out the draft written by the Wen squad leader, photographed it in front of Yuan Jing, and ordered: "copy a copy!"
Yuan Jing picked it up and took a rough look, and saw that what was written on the paper was exactly the reason why the city gate was broken that day. Most of them were scolding Prince Wei for his immoral act of opening the city gate and luring wolves into the house. They were the ones in the end. For the plan to break out of Yanguan, I begged Lord Wei to send troops to support him.At the end, there is a name written in lower letters, which is the Wei Jun city guard general: Qin Yanfeng.
With a thought, Yuan Jing thought of the rumors he heard in the palace. It is said that Qin Yanfeng's biological mother was one of the most beautiful women in the Western Wei Dynasty. pet.Many years ago, he ordered his wife to go to the palace to pay homage to the Empress Dowager. She met Lord Wei and was forced to stay in the palace for several months. The Queen Mother personally issued an edict, so Lord Wei reluctantly sent her out.At that time, Old General Qin was defending the border. When he returned to Beijing, his wife was already pregnant with Liujia.This scandal caused a lot of noise, Lord Wei added an official to the rank, rewarded him generously, and wanted to appease the veteran, but the old general Qin had no face to face his colleagues in Beijing, and left the capital on the night the child was born, not returning for many years. until death.
Lord Wei wanted to welcome this lady into the palace, but unexpectedly she swallowed gold and died when she heard the news of her husband's death.After she died, Lord Wei took Qin Yanfeng to live in the palace for a long time, and the cost was comparable to that of the prince. He was not released from the palace until he became an adult.
Lord Wei's absurdity is well known to everyone, the princes were afraid that he would be confused, and really recognized Qin Yanfeng's son. They fought endlessly for succession and power, but they had the same attitude on this matter, and even their followers and followers also agreed. Don't wait to see him.Qin Yanfeng's life in the court was difficult, and when he returned to the Qin family, he was often criticized.Everyone was happy to see him in trouble, so none of the letters he sent could be presented to Lord Wei.
Seeing that Yuan Jing was slow to write, the man scolded viciously: "What are you doing in a daze! Write quickly!" Yuan Jing thought for a while, then dipped his pen into the ink, and just as he was writing quickly, another person entered the tent, Seeing this scene, he sighed: "The general is not giving up. I have sent this letter twice. If His Majesty is willing to accept us, he should have heard back. If you want me to say, it's better to go up the mountain to be a bandit, and you can save your life. If it goes on like this, it will be a death sooner or later.”
The general reprimanded: "Don't talk nonsense, Your Majesty values the general so much that he won't ignore him, maybe something went wrong on the way, the letter has not been delivered to the emperor, let's try again." The other person sighed and remained silent.When the letter was completed, the military general took a quick look and ordered him to leave another copy, then called Xinying and sent the letter.
It rained heavily that night, and the stables were dilapidated without any shelter.Yuan Jing was drenched all over, his lips turned white from the cold, his mind felt dizzy for a while, and he seemed to be able to fall asleep by closing his eyes.When he felt sleepy, he bit his lips tightly, and said to himself: "Can't sleep!" He tried his best to recall the past, and Chu Yu's figure appeared one after another. The will to live.
When it was so cold that my hands and feet were numb, I saw candles like firefly lighting up from a distance, and someone walked over quickly holding an umbrella. It was the military general in the daytime. "The general wants to see you!"
Yuan Jing was well aware of the reason, seeing the worried faces of the people around him, he tried to smile, and was pushed away.I fell down a few times on the road, and when I checked in, my body was covered in mud and water, and I looked quite embarrassed.Looking up, he saw a general in black clothes sitting in front of the desk, and on the table was the letter he wrote in the morning.Yuan Jing vaguely felt that this person looked familiar, and when he was still thinking hard, he saw the general raised his head, glanced at himself, and shook the letter in his hand: "Is this written by you?"
The deep voice fell into his ears, Yuan Jing felt as if struck by lightning, and instantly remembered that this person was General Wei whom he rescued by the river that day!Seeing him, the guard only looked at the general with wide eyes, and kicked him over: "Our general is asking you something!"
Yuan Jing was kicked and coughed again and again, Qin Yanfeng made a "stop" gesture, and said again: "Why did you write like that?"
Yuan Jing didn't know whether to bring up the old matter for a moment, hesitated for a while, and said with difficulty: "Of course it is to save the general."
Qin Yanfeng frowned, and glanced at it again. The handwriting on the letter was strong and powerful, but he never mentioned the matter of praying for soldiers to respond. Every word and every word was a low-key, self-accepting.It is said that the fall of Weiguan that day was due to his own poor command, which made Prince Wei, who led the army to fight against the enemy, almost fail.He knew that he had committed a serious crime, and he was willing to stay in Yanjing to kill the enemy and serve the country. Even if he died, he would have no regrets.When he was dying, he went to the table to tell his loyalty.
Qin Yanfeng said: "To save me?" He stood up and casually walked in front of Yuan Jing, the guard next to him grabbed Yuan Jing's hair and forced him to look up.Yuan Jing's face was terribly dirty, which made his eyes more clear.Yan Feng raised his hand to brush away his wet and messy hair, and met his gaze.Yuan Jing's scalp was painfully strangled, and he tried his best to calmly say: "Yes."
Qin Yanfeng smiled lightly, motioned the guards to withdraw, squatted down, and simply wiped off the muddy water on his face: "How can I help?"
Yuan Jing gasped and said, "Everyone knows the reason why the city was broken that day, and most of the time only Lord Wei didn't know. The crown prince of your country is the heir apparent, so it's okay to make mistakes. Naturally, I hope that the general will die in Dayan so that he can carry it on his back." Infamy, the general might as well have fulfilled his wish and asked himself to surrender, he justifiably got a scapegoat, even if he did not rescue him, it is expected that he would not prevent people from sending the letter to the imperial court."
Qin Yanfeng pinched his chin, looked closely at him and said, "Who the hell are you?"
His hands were so strong that Yuan Jing was in pain when he pinched him, his body felt chilly, and everyone had double images, he felt his warm breath falling on his face, met his gaze, and said with difficulty : "Yan people."
Qin Yanfeng didn't move his eyes: "I brought you here, since you are from Yan, why did you save me?"
Yuan Jing shook his body twice, was supported by him, and then knelt down: "I have my own reasons, I just hope that the general will agree to my request after receiving the reply."
Qin Yanfeng looked at him for a long time, then suddenly changed his subject, and said, "Did I meet you somewhere?" Yuan Jing smiled weakly at him, unable to hold on, and fell to the side.
The guard kicked him and said: "General, this kid has passed out." Seeing that the general hesitated for a moment, he actually helped him up, and said in shock: "General, be careful of deceit!" Pull him out of the Lord's arms.Qin Yanfeng's eyes fell on his pale and thin cheeks, hesitated for a moment, and said, "It's okay, it's not an act." He carried Yuan Jing to the bed made of two wooden boards, and saw that he was soaked and dirty. , frowned: "Go find some clean clothes and change for him." The guard scrubbed him carelessly, changed his clean clothes, cooked a bowl of ginger soup, and poured it down for him. Seeing that he was no longer trembling, Then quietly withdrew.
Qin Yanfeng was depressed and couldn't sleep for a long time. When it was dawn, there was a commotion outside. His lieutenant strode in and said excitedly: "General! Your Majesty has responded." A secret letter was about to be delivered to him. It turned out that Lord Wei hadn't heard from him for a long time, but when he had encountered an accident and it was just when he was heartbroken, he got the news and immediately ordered that Prince Wei, who had just fled back to the country, send [-] troops to meet him near Yanguan. Those who had previously begged would have to take one day in the morning.
Qin Yanfeng's heart relaxed, his expression remained cold and indifferent: "Understood, go tell the brothers." After the lieutenant stepped down as he said, he walked to Yuan Jing's side.After the previous sense of familiarity arose, the more he looked at Yuan Jing, the more familiar he felt. He raised his hand to brush away his messy black hair, and after a thought came to him, he suddenly raised his hand, blocking his eyes, revealing only his tall and straight face. With a glance at the bridge of the nose and the slightly pointed chin, his heart skipped a beat, and he hugged Yuan Jing in a mysterious way, and pulled him to him.
Before he could carefully feel whether this scene could overlap with the person in his memory, he heard a slight cough coming from his arms.As if waking up from a dream, he quickly let go of the person.After a good night's sleep, Yuan Jing's complexion looked better than yesterday, but he was still feverish, and his cheeks were flushed abnormally.
Hearing his weak voice of thanks, Qin Yanfeng nodded uncomfortably, and said, "Your Majesty has sent a letter, and I will return to Great Wei in a few days." Yuan Jing nodded slightly, as if not surprised.Qin Yanfeng looked at him looking down and thinking, and suddenly said: "You saved me again."
Yuan Jing suddenly raised his head and looked at him with some horror. Qin Yanfeng was still a little skeptical, but when he saw his reaction, he was sure in his heart, smiled slightly, and said, "It really is you."
Yuan Jing didn't know his intention, so he said calmly: "General Tianwei, I can't hide anything from you."
Qin Yanfeng listened to him tell the story directly, his expression became more and more kind, he tucked the quilt for him, and said: "Why didn't I tell you when we met yesterday?"
Yuan Jing's expression was a bit difficult to say, he thought about it for a long time, and seemed not to know whether he should say it or not.Qin Yanfeng looked at him intently and waited patiently for him.When he finally spoke, his voice weakened, throwing away the previous emotions such as respect and fear, with a hint of shyness: "I dare not, I am from Yan, I don't know if the general will kill me."
Qin Yanfeng laughed suddenly, and he didn't know if he was deliberately scaring him, or if he really thought so: "You Yan people should be killed." Seeing his vigilant eyes, he changed the subject and said, "But I said I would repay you. , Since you should keep your word, I saved me, and I will spare your life, and when you recover from illness, I will ask someone to send you back."
Yuan Jing was tired, and his speech and demeanor had a sense of laziness. He leaned on the bed and said lightly: "The general said earlier that after receiving the reply from Lord Wei, you can promise me a request. Are you going to break your promise?"
Hearing that he seemed to mean something, Qin Yanfeng was a little surprised and said, "What do you think?"
Yuan Jing closed his eyes and looked back at him: "I don't want to go back, I want to follow the general and make contributions."
The surroundings were extremely quiet for a while, Qin Yanfeng's eyes changed a few times, and when he looked at him again, it was obviously a little more scrutinizing: "You are from Yan, why did you follow me?" Thinking of the first time he saw Yuan Jing, then It was just a glimpse, but he was dressed in a manner, no matter what he looked like an ordinary person, he said: "I haven't asked your name yet."
Yuan Jing said hoarsely: "Others call me Xiao Jiu, I want to follow the general, of course it is because Dayan can't tolerate me." He poked his bare feet out from under the quilt, and the bell hit the golden ring, making a burst of sound. Qing Xiang: "As the general saw, I am a slave. My master treated me badly, so I escaped. It was so easy to get rid of him, so naturally I don't want to go back."
Qin Yanfeng held one of his feet, and saw that his slender ankle was covered with many old wounds, as if someone had cut it with a sword, the deepest one was on the back of the foot, and under the white skin, there were bruised veins, like before. Caused by a severe injury.His heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help stroking the wound lightly.
Yuan Jing said indifferently: "He gave me this anklet. In the past, there was an iron chain in the middle so that he could tie me up anytime and anywhere. Later, the iron chain was taken off, but the anklet remained on. Golden silk, I found countless magic weapons and tried to break it, as the general saw, many scars were added in vain, but none of them worked."
Qin Yanfeng squeezed the ring tightly without saying a word, and squeezed it away with all his strength, he didn't expect this tiny thing to stay still, not to mention broken, even if it was bent, it didn't even bend a bit.Now he believed it. Thinking of his previous mask, he couldn't help but said again: "He gave you that mask too?"
Yuan Jing said without blinking: "Yes, he is narrow-minded and never likes me to associate with others. Every time I appear in front of people, I have to wear that mask so that people will not see me. I want to be a masculine man, but I want to hide it." How can I be willing to live with my head and tail down and rely on others, I would rather be killed on the way out, and never go back to live that kind of life again. If the general really wants to thank me, then take me with you."
Qin Yanfeng listened to his tone, and when he mentioned the excitement, there was a hint of water in his eyes, his heart softened, and he sighed: "It is not difficult for me to protect you now, but after returning to Wei, Your Majesty will blame you, I am afraid you will To be implicated."
Yuan Jing said: "Who am I, the general? I can only enjoy wealth but not share adversity? As long as I can follow you, I am not afraid of anything."
Qin Yanfeng smiled slightly and said: "Forget it, it's up to you." Seeing his tired and sick face, he helped him to lie down with his own hands: "You should have a good rest first, and I will take you back to Dawei in a few days." He slowly opened his eyes behind his back, watched his tall figure leave from the tent, heaved a sigh of relief, and fell asleep in peace.
Fusang Pass was already in chaos. As soon as Chu Yu got the news that Wei Bing was fleeing and making trouble the day before yesterday, he personally dispatched people to round up.Unexpectedly, this young guy, Wei Jun, was also extra cautious. Once the looting was over, he immediately fled without a trace.He ran around for a day and returned without success until night.When returning to the city, I saw Cao Ruyi waiting at the door, and when I saw the army returning, I rushed to him immediately: "Is Your Majesty with you! I can't find him anywhere!"
Chu Yu's heart sank heavily, and he grabbed his collar and said, "He's not here with me, what's going on!"
Cao Ruyi said that since His Majesty was called away in the middle of the night, he never came back. He searched for it in the city, but everyone said they didn’t see it. They thought it was Chu Yu who took him away. It was a foregone conclusion, and his expression became more and more anxious.
When he was angry, Chu Yu planned to chase after him, thinking that he is now in a hot temper, and now he is angry, if he insists on provoking him, it will make him unhappy.In addition, the military newspaper came later, and put him aside, but he didn't return for a day.Chu Yu immediately ordered to summon all the guards in the city today, and interrogated them one by one. The guards did not dare to hide, and told the truth: "At dawn, it seems that someone rode out of the city..." Still thinking about that person Seeing the expression of the person seated inadvertently, he panicked, knelt down and said: "My lord, forgive me, that person walked too fast, we didn't see his appearance clearly."
Although they didn't dare to say it clearly, everyone guessed in their hearts who was going out.Fusang Pass extends in all directions, and one day is enough to go to a place that is hard to find.What's more, there are still Wei soldiers making trouble outside. Once the two sides meet, the consequences will be disastrous.Thinking of this episode, Chu Zhan was planning to gloat and say a few words. When he looked up, he saw his elder brother's extremely gloomy eyes. He was frightened for a while, and suddenly lost the courage to speak.
Although Chu Shao didn't know Yuan Jing's identity, but based on what he saw in the past few days, the relationship between his elder brother and him was obviously extraordinary.They lived here as guests, and Chu Shao was afraid that he would clash with the people of Fusang Pass in a fit of anger, so he hurriedly said: "Brother, don't worry, I'll take someone to look for it right away."
Not long after Xu Miting heard the news, he also rushed over. Although he didn't have any friendship with Yuan Jing, because of his old friend's face, he treated him differently in his heart.He didn't ask about the affairs in the city for a long time, and suddenly took over, his vigorous and resolute actions remained the same as before.Without waiting for others to speak, he dealt with those who were not on duty first, and sent more than half of the guards in the city to look for them.Ma Canjun comforted him, Yuan Jing was always diligent in accepting gifts, most of the time he just went out for a stroll and came back in a while.Xu Miting snorted heavily, and in front of Chu Yu, said coldly: "What do you know, as long as you have something to do with Chu, you will be fine."
When the voice fell to the ground, the surroundings were deadly silent, and even Chu Zhan was angered by his words. If the second brother hadn't been holding his hand beside him, he might have had an attack by now.Seeing Chu Yu standing up slowly, Fang Qing was also a little nervous, not knowing how to end the fight.Unexpectedly, Chu Yu went out without saying a word, and took his own people to look for it.
Several groups of people ran around all night, and when they finally found the village where Yuan Jing was staying, there was only a mess in front of them.Most of the houses were burned and destroyed, supplies were scattered all over the ground, and the corpses of villagers who had been hacked by knives could be seen everywhere. A hunter who hadn’t returned at night knelt in the muddy water, wailing loudly with his arms around his tragically dead wife and children.Fang Qing saw that Chu Yu's face was getting more and more ugly, and comforted him: "Your Majesty, a lucky person has his own appearance. Even if he is in danger, he will surely turn the bad luck into good luck. You...don't worry too much."
Chu Yu looked at the soldiers who restrained the corpses, and nodded absently.They temporarily set up a grass shed and put the villagers' corpses in it one by one.Half of them were hacked and burned, and their faces were already blurred.Chu Yu looked at them one by one, his expression relaxed, and he said, "Bury well."
Several soldiers worked together to prop up a collapsed cowshed, and saw a corpse covered in a blood-stained cloak in the chaotic haystack, one of them was Chu Yu's guard, seeing the familiar clothes, "Yeah!" With a cry, he didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly held it in front of the coach.
This cloak was put on by Chu Yu himself on Yuan Jing that day, and now the lining is mottled with blood, and the chest is down, almost soaked in blood.Chu Yu's fingers turned white, and he hissed, "Where is the person?" Fang Qing went over and carried the person up, only to see that the person was more than seven feet long, and his cheeks were burnt and bloody, making it difficult to recognize. The shape is surprisingly familiar.When he squatted down to check, he saw something shining golden on his ankles, which turned out to be a pair of ankle rings.Fang Qing gasped, looked up at Chu Yu, but didn't know how to report.
When Wushitu heard the news and came, he saw Chu Yu standing beside the corpse, his burly body blocked most of the body, so that he could not see clearly the appearance of the fallen person, but the pair of anklets lay in front of his eyes, making it hard to see. ignore.He said in amazement: "This is... your little emperor?"
Chu Yu suddenly pulled out a short sword and slashed at his ankle rings. After hearing a sound of gold and stone colliding, the pair of ankle rings broke apart. Chu Yu said coldly: "It's not him." Withdrew the short sword Jian, walked into the crowd, and continued to dispatch people to search for his trace.
There was a heavy rain in the middle of the night, and the horseshoe marks were washed away by the rain, making it impossible to trace.The people searched around the village for five or six days, and even sent people to the bottom of the cliff. They only had to turn the land over, but they still couldn't find any clues.Chu Yu hasn't closed his eyes much in the past few days, and he will wake up in less than two hours of sleep, his eyes are red from the heat, and he becomes more and more taciturn as the days pass.Seeing that he was not in the right condition, Fang Qing was afraid that he would not be able to hold on, so he privately begged Wu Shitu to persuade him.
Wu Shitu was obsessed with him, and wanted to worry about Yuan Jing chasing and killing Prince Wei, but now that the trouble has disappeared by himself, deep down in his heart, he actually feels a little fortunate.Glancing at Chu Yu's gloomy look, he avoided it and said, "His sweetheart is gone, and now he may have the idea of killing someone. Who can he listen to? I don't want to touch this bad luck."
Fang Qing said worriedly: "My lord hasn't had a good rest for several months because of this battle, and his body is still injured. How can I stand this kind of cooking?"
Wu Shitu flicked the whip back and forth, and said slowly: "It's been so long, if he is still here, he should have been found anyway, either your little emperor is sincerely hiding and can't come out, or he is already dead. "Fang Qing's expression changed: "Your Majesty, be careful!" Wu Shitu sneered, and said indifferently: "I don't say it, but you know it very well in your heart. The prince is sad and confused, and you will be confused too? Long pain It’s better to have a short pain. If you are really worried about him, find a corpse with a similar description and trick him to let the string in his heart relax. Although it hurts a bit, but as time goes by, there will be a day when it will get better .”
Fang Qing was taken aback: "How can I do that?"
Wu Shitu looked at Chu Yu's figure standing by the torch, shook his head, and sighed: "If you can't find someone, he won't let go. You let him come, just to see him suffer for a few more days." .”
The war is initially decided, and there are still some important tasks to be done.But Chu Yu has no intention of returning to the teacher.A few more days later, the large army of the Yan Army who counted the aftermath at Weiguan returned successfully, and before entering the customs, they were transferred to Chu Yu's side to follow and find someone.For a while, the mountain villages near Fusang Pass were filled with soldiers, and the people were panicked, not knowing what happened again.Chu Shao tried to persuade him a few times, but it was all in vain. Before, he felt that his elder brother treated this Heqi envoy unusually, but now it seems that it is simply too extraordinary.Suspicious in his heart, he quietly called his third brother over and asked his eldest brother what was the relationship with this person?
Chu Zhan was in a good mood, raised his hand and shot a bird from the tree, and said with a smile, "I don't know what the relationship is, but look at the way the elder brother is now, the widower whose wife died is not as frustrated as him."
Chu Shao couldn't bear it anymore, snatched his bow and arrow with his hands, and cursed: "You bastard, if you dare to talk nonsense again, I will teach you on behalf of my elder brother!" Chu Zhan laughed, raised his foot and ran away without a trace.

Fusang City drank together all night, the officers and soldiers guarding the city were drunk, and only felt a figure flash in front of them, and when they looked again, they disappeared. He felt uneasy, and asked, "Oh, did someone pass by just now?"
The man was also in a daze, yawning and slurring his words: "No, right? It's still not bright yet, besides, didn't a centurion enter the city last night, saying that there were bandits from the Western Wei Dynasty outside, begging our city lord to send troops to suppress it?" Bandit, which one is not afraid of death, dare to run out alone?"
Another person interjected: "Last night, the city lord and the prince were drinking, so they were arranged to live in the posthouse first. The news hasn't been delivered yet, right?"
The man earlier shook his head, and replied without much concern: "Then I don't know."
The winter snow has not yet melted, and a few bold hares sneak out of the hole to eat the dry grass.In the early spring of northern Xinjiang, the wind was bitterly cold, and Yuan Jing ran wildly for most of the day, brandishing his whip in the cold wind, before the suffocation in his heart subsided a little.Perhaps because of the war, he had been out of Fusang Pass for so long, and he didn't see any caravans along the way.Thinking of the lively scenes of Fusangguan in the old days that I heard from others, I feel depressed again.He hadn't eaten since last night, and he was a little dizzy at this time after riding on horseback for a day, but when he thought of going back to face that person, he immediately felt disgusted, so he simply wandered around recklessly.
Today is a cloudy day, with dark clouds covering the sky, Yuan Jing walked for a day in the cold and hungry, and it was near evening before he saw a village.When I entered, I saw that there was no one on the street, the doors and windows of every house were closed, and the silence was almost eerie.He vaguely heard a cough coming from a small window nearby, so he went up and knocked on the door, only knocked once, and then heard a "bang" inside, as if something had broken.
Someone looked out through the crack of the door, and said in a flustered voice, "Who is it?"
Yuan Jing took a step back to make him see more clearly: "I'm passing by, I want to come in and ask for a drink."
There was no reply for a while, Yuan Jing waited for a while, guessing that the family didn't like strangers, so he didn't force it, took the little red horse and left.Before he took two steps, he heard a "squeak", and the wooden door opened slightly. Yuan Jing turned his head and saw a seven or eight-year-old child lying on the door and peeping at him.The two looked at each other for a while, and the child turned around and said, "Brother, it's not from Wei."
Yuan Jing was invited in by them, and only then did he know that someone had found Wei Kou's trail near the village. They had harmed the people in the neighboring villages before, and the villagers were terrified, so they had to stay behind closed doors in order to protect themselves.When Yuan Jing heard this, the first thought in his mind was: since this group of people showed their faces, they will definitely come again, and after hastily spent some tea and rice, they will go back to the city to transfer troops.The owner of the house is a young man who fell ill after winter and is still resting in bed.Seeing Yuanjing's luxurious clothes and extraordinary temperament, and hearing that he came from Fusang Pass, his attitude became more respectful and polite. Stay one night and go back tomorrow.
Seeing that a heavy rain is coming, it is really inconvenient to travel at night, Yuan Jing could only say: "Then I will disturb you."
Xu Shi was very tired during the day, and as soon as he closed his eyes, he fell into a deep sleep, and he didn't hear the thunder outside.Around midnight, he was woken up by a noise, and when he opened his eyes, there was a big fire outside, and even the windows were flushed red.Yuan Jing went down to the ground with bare feet, and through the crack of the window, he saw billowing black smoke rushing up to the sky. Under the haze of the sky, Wei soldiers wearing armor and slashing with knives rushed into the crowd like ghosts from hell.
Just at the moment of horror, the door was suddenly pushed open heavily, and the child rushed in and said, "My lord, Wei Bing has come in! Let's go!"
They helped the patient and fled outside the village.The whole village was in chaos. The soldiers of Wei set fire to it, and all the villagers were driven to the street. Both exits were guarded with knives. .Wei Jun searched for herbal medicine supplies from house to house. When he saw women, children, old and young, he swung a knife and chopped them down. Adult men were tied up with tendon ropes and dragged behind horses for fun.
The child took the rein of the horse and handed it to Yuan Jing, raised his head and said, "My lord, you go first." The Patriarch also urged him repeatedly from behind.Yuan Jing was sweating anxiously, and said: "Let's go together!" He lifted his arm and carried the child onto the horse's back. Before he could help his brother, a Wei soldier said loudly: "Then There are more!" While speaking, an iron arrow with flaming tail feathers shot over, hitting the young man's heart, and the young man cried out mournfully: "Brother!"
The young man's mouth and nose were bleeding, and he only pushed them lightly, and then fell to the ground and died.Seeing several Wei soldiers rushing towards him, Yuan Jing quickly sniffed under his breath, closed his eyes, took off his cloak, covered his body, jumped, and galloped away.Arrows rained continuously from behind, Yuan Jing hugged the trembling child tightly in his arms, and fled for his life with his body fully bent on the horse's back.The Wei soldier from before couldn't hit him with one blow, so he blew his whistle, summoned three or five companions, and chased him closely.
The child heard the sound of the horse's hooves getting closer, sobbing: "They are about to catch up, will we...will we die?"
The foot strength of the red horse under the crotch is far inferior to that of the iron cavalry of the Western Wei Dynasty, and it is only a matter of time before it is caught up.Yuan Jing subconsciously pressed the mechanism on his wrist, and with a movement of his fingers, he remembered that the crossbow had been left in Chu Yu's camp. He cursed bitterly, and said through gnashing of teeth, "No!" After saying that, a thought suddenly flashed: Yes, it is others who hurt me and hurt me!Why should I die!As soon as this thought came out, a strong desire to survive rushed out of his chest, and Chu Yu's passing face became less hateful.
Just when he was distracted, he suddenly saw a cliff lying in front of him, about three or four zhang away, with clouds and mist shrouded below it, more than a hundred feet deep, the red horse was afraid and stopped moving.Wei Bing was close at hand, taking advantage of this opportunity, a cracking whip flew over, biting Yuan Jing's arm firmly.Yuan Jing drew out his dagger and slashed at random a few times. Unexpectedly, the whip was mixed with refined steel, and he slashed continuously for a while.He said decisively: "Hold tight! Go to Fusang Pass, find... Find City Master Sumeru!" With a twist of his wrist, he stabbed the horse with a knife. The red horse suffered from the pain and became mad, with its head and neck raised, and headed towards the opposite bank. Leap away.
When it left the ground on all fours, Yuan Jing also flew backwards, and he fell to the ground with his head up, gasping for breath in pain, almost vomiting blood from the shock.The leader, Wei Jun, got off his horse and whipped him a few times angrily: "I think you are still running!" Yuan Jing raised his hand to block it a few times, and the man kicked him over, hitting the back of his head. When it's dark, you don't know anything.
He didn't know how long he had slept, but he woke up with difficulty amidst a burst of low cries.The surroundings were pitch black, with faint skylight shining through from the outside. At that time, the body was shivering with cold, and the back of the head was even more painful like twitching.Someone held a dirty, broken water bag in his mouth and gave him some water.Yuan Jing said weakly: "Where is this?" The man shook his head in the darkness, and after a while, he heard the sound of leather boots stamping on the ground, and someone lifted the black cloth off their heads .
Yuan Jing's eyes hurt from the sun, and he subconsciously wanted to raise his hand to block it, but his hands were tied behind his back, so he had to give up.Seven or eight men were imprisoned in this square iron cage. At this moment, they were driven out with whips and sent to a dilapidated stable. Many people were tied up inside. Too much torture, people's eyes are numb.Wei Bing drove them to a place cursing, and those who had hidden possessions before were found and beaten.
Yuan Jing's hands were tied, and he didn't even have room to dodge, so he could only dodge with his head down.At this time, I saw a military general rushing over, and the one who beat people back, said to the crowd: "Are any of you able to write?" Wei Bing asked curiously, "Where is Captain Wen?" The general sighed: "He The injury was too serious, I went there last night, the general himself didn’t want to start writing, so he asked me to find someone to replace him.” Seeing that the crowd didn’t answer, he stabbed the crowd with his saber: “I’m asking you something!”
Most of these people are villagers from the countryside, who don't know a single word, and they all looked at each other in blank dismay when they heard the words.After a moment of stalemate, a weak voice said: "I will."
The general waved his hand and lifted Yuan Jing out.Yuan Jing's chest was in pain and he was about to vomit, so he ate something and was pushed to the front of the small case.The general took out the draft written by the Wen squad leader, photographed it in front of Yuan Jing, and ordered: "copy a copy!"
Yuan Jing picked it up and took a rough look, and saw that what was written on the paper was exactly the reason why the city gate was broken that day. Most of them were scolding Prince Wei for his immoral act of opening the city gate and luring wolves into the house. They were the ones in the end. For the plan to break out of Yanguan, I begged Lord Wei to send troops to support him.At the end, there is a name written in lower letters, which is the Wei Jun city guard general: Qin Yanfeng.
With a thought, Yuan Jing thought of the rumors he heard in the palace. It is said that Qin Yanfeng's biological mother was one of the most beautiful women in the Western Wei Dynasty. pet.Many years ago, he ordered his wife to go to the palace to pay homage to the Empress Dowager. She met Lord Wei and was forced to stay in the palace for several months. The Queen Mother personally issued an edict, so Lord Wei reluctantly sent her out.At that time, Old General Qin was defending the border. When he returned to Beijing, his wife was already pregnant with Liujia.This scandal caused a lot of noise, Lord Wei added an official to the rank, rewarded him generously, and wanted to appease the veteran, but the old general Qin had no face to face his colleagues in Beijing, and left the capital on the night the child was born, not returning for many years. until death.
Lord Wei wanted to welcome this lady into the palace, but unexpectedly she swallowed gold and died when she heard the news of her husband's death.After she died, Lord Wei took Qin Yanfeng to live in the palace for a long time, and the cost was comparable to that of the prince. He was not released from the palace until he became an adult.
Lord Wei's absurdity is well known to everyone, the princes were afraid that he would be confused, and really recognized Qin Yanfeng's son. They fought endlessly for succession and power, but they had the same attitude on this matter, and even their followers and followers also agreed. Don't wait to see him.Qin Yanfeng's life in the court was difficult, and when he returned to the Qin family, he was often criticized.Everyone was happy to see him in trouble, so none of the letters he sent could be presented to Lord Wei.
Seeing that Yuan Jing was slow to write, the man scolded viciously: "What are you doing in a daze! Write quickly!" Yuan Jing thought for a while, then dipped his pen into the ink, and just as he was writing quickly, another person entered the tent, Seeing this scene, he sighed: "The general is not giving up. I have sent this letter twice. If His Majesty is willing to accept us, he should have heard back. If you want me to say, it's better to go up the mountain to be a bandit, and you can save your life. If it goes on like this, it will be a death sooner or later.”
The general reprimanded: "Don't talk nonsense, Your Majesty values the general so much that he won't ignore him, maybe something went wrong on the way, the letter has not been delivered to the emperor, let's try again." The other person sighed and remained silent.When the letter was completed, the military general took a quick look and ordered him to leave another copy, then called Xinying and sent the letter.
It rained heavily that night, and the stables were dilapidated without any shelter.Yuan Jing was drenched all over, his lips turned white from the cold, his mind felt dizzy for a while, and he seemed to be able to fall asleep by closing his eyes.When he felt sleepy, he bit his lips tightly, and said to himself: "Can't sleep!" He tried his best to recall the past, and Chu Yu's figure appeared one after another. The will to live.
When it was so cold that my hands and feet were numb, I saw candles like firefly lighting up from a distance, and someone walked over quickly holding an umbrella. It was the military general in the daytime. "The general wants to see you!"
Yuan Jing was well aware of the reason, seeing the worried faces of the people around him, he tried to smile, and was pushed away.I fell down a few times on the road, and when I checked in, my body was covered in mud and water, and I looked quite embarrassed.Looking up, he saw a general in black clothes sitting in front of the desk, and on the table was the letter he wrote in the morning.Yuan Jing vaguely felt that this person looked familiar, and when he was still thinking hard, he saw the general raised his head, glanced at himself, and shook the letter in his hand: "Is this written by you?"
The deep voice fell into his ears, Yuan Jing felt as if struck by lightning, and instantly remembered that this person was General Wei whom he rescued by the river that day!Seeing him, the guard only looked at the general with wide eyes, and kicked him over: "Our general is asking you something!"
Yuan Jing was kicked and coughed again and again, Qin Yanfeng made a "stop" gesture, and said again: "Why did you write like that?"
Yuan Jing didn't know whether to bring up the old matter for a moment, hesitated for a while, and said with difficulty: "Of course it is to save the general."
Qin Yanfeng frowned, and glanced at it again. The handwriting on the letter was strong and powerful, but he never mentioned the matter of praying for soldiers to respond. Every word and every word was a low-key, self-accepting.It is said that the fall of Weiguan that day was due to his own poor command, which made Prince Wei, who led the army to fight against the enemy, almost fail.He knew that he had committed a serious crime, and he was willing to stay in Yanjing to kill the enemy and serve the country. Even if he died, he would have no regrets.When he was dying, he went to the table to tell his loyalty.
Qin Yanfeng said: "To save me?" He stood up and casually walked in front of Yuan Jing, the guard next to him grabbed Yuan Jing's hair and forced him to look up.Yuan Jing's face was terribly dirty, which made his eyes more clear.Yan Feng raised his hand to brush away his wet and messy hair, and met his gaze.Yuan Jing's scalp was painfully strangled, and he tried his best to calmly say: "Yes."
Qin Yanfeng smiled lightly, motioned the guards to withdraw, squatted down, and simply wiped off the muddy water on his face: "How can I help?"
Yuan Jing gasped and said, "Everyone knows the reason why the city was broken that day, and most of the time only Lord Wei didn't know. The crown prince of your country is the heir apparent, so it's okay to make mistakes. Naturally, I hope that the general will die in Dayan so that he can carry it on his back." Infamy, the general might as well have fulfilled his wish and asked himself to surrender, he justifiably got a scapegoat, even if he did not rescue him, it is expected that he would not prevent people from sending the letter to the imperial court."
Qin Yanfeng pinched his chin, looked closely at him and said, "Who the hell are you?"
His hands were so strong that Yuan Jing was in pain when he pinched him, his body felt chilly, and everyone had double images, he felt his warm breath falling on his face, met his gaze, and said with difficulty : "Yan people."
Qin Yanfeng didn't move his eyes: "I brought you here, since you are from Yan, why did you save me?"
Yuan Jing shook his body twice, was supported by him, and then knelt down: "I have my own reasons, I just hope that the general will agree to my request after receiving the reply."
Qin Yanfeng looked at him for a long time, then suddenly changed his subject, and said, "Did I meet you somewhere?" Yuan Jing smiled weakly at him, unable to hold on, and fell to the side.
The guard kicked him and said: "General, this kid has passed out." Seeing that the general hesitated for a moment, he actually helped him up, and said in shock: "General, be careful of deceit!" Pull him out of the Lord's arms.Qin Yanfeng's eyes fell on his pale and thin cheeks, hesitated for a moment, and said, "It's okay, it's not an act." He carried Yuan Jing to the bed made of two wooden boards, and saw that he was soaked and dirty. , frowned: "Go find some clean clothes and change for him." The guard scrubbed him carelessly, changed his clean clothes, cooked a bowl of ginger soup, and poured it down for him. Seeing that he was no longer trembling, Then quietly withdrew.
Qin Yanfeng was depressed and couldn't sleep for a long time. When it was dawn, there was a commotion outside. His lieutenant strode in and said excitedly: "General! Your Majesty has responded." A secret letter was about to be delivered to him. It turned out that Lord Wei hadn't heard from him for a long time, but when he had encountered an accident and it was just when he was heartbroken, he got the news and immediately ordered that Prince Wei, who had just fled back to the country, send [-] troops to meet him near Yanguan. Those who had previously begged would have to take one day in the morning.
Qin Yanfeng's heart relaxed, his expression remained cold and indifferent: "Understood, go tell the brothers." After the lieutenant stepped down as he said, he walked to Yuan Jing's side.After the previous sense of familiarity arose, the more he looked at Yuan Jing, the more familiar he felt. He raised his hand to brush away his messy black hair, and after a thought came to him, he suddenly raised his hand, blocking his eyes, revealing only his tall and straight face. With a glance at the bridge of the nose and the slightly pointed chin, his heart skipped a beat, and he hugged Yuan Jing in a mysterious way, and pulled him to him.
Before he could carefully feel whether this scene could overlap with the person in his memory, he heard a slight cough coming from his arms.As if waking up from a dream, he quickly let go of the person.After a good night's sleep, Yuan Jing's complexion looked better than yesterday, but he was still feverish, and his cheeks were flushed abnormally.
Hearing his weak voice of thanks, Qin Yanfeng nodded uncomfortably, and said, "Your Majesty has sent a letter, and I will return to Great Wei in a few days." Yuan Jing nodded slightly, as if not surprised.Qin Yanfeng looked at him looking down and thinking, and suddenly said: "You saved me again."
Yuan Jing suddenly raised his head and looked at him with some horror. Qin Yanfeng was still a little skeptical, but when he saw his reaction, he was sure in his heart, smiled slightly, and said, "It really is you."
Yuan Jing didn't know his intention, so he said calmly: "General Tianwei, I can't hide anything from you."
Qin Yanfeng listened to him tell the story directly, his expression became more and more kind, he tucked the quilt for him, and said: "Why didn't I tell you when we met yesterday?"
Yuan Jing's expression was a bit difficult to say, he thought about it for a long time, and seemed not to know whether he should say it or not.Qin Yanfeng looked at him intently and waited patiently for him.When he finally spoke, his voice weakened, throwing away the previous emotions such as respect and fear, with a hint of shyness: "I dare not, I am from Yan, I don't know if the general will kill me."
Qin Yanfeng laughed suddenly, and he didn't know if he was deliberately scaring him, or if he really thought so: "You Yan people should be killed." Seeing his vigilant eyes, he changed the subject and said, "But I said I would repay you. , Since you should keep your word, I saved me, and I will spare your life, and when you recover from illness, I will ask someone to send you back."
Yuan Jing was tired, and his speech and demeanor had a sense of laziness. He leaned on the bed and said lightly: "The general said earlier that after receiving the reply from Lord Wei, you can promise me a request. Are you going to break your promise?"
Hearing that he seemed to mean something, Qin Yanfeng was a little surprised and said, "What do you think?"
Yuan Jing closed his eyes and looked back at him: "I don't want to go back, I want to follow the general and make contributions."
The surroundings were extremely quiet for a while, Qin Yanfeng's eyes changed a few times, and when he looked at him again, it was obviously a little more scrutinizing: "You are from Yan, why did you follow me?" Thinking of the first time he saw Yuan Jing, then It was just a glimpse, but he was dressed in a manner, no matter what he looked like an ordinary person, he said: "I haven't asked your name yet."
Yuan Jing said hoarsely: "Others call me Xiao Jiu, I want to follow the general, of course it is because Dayan can't tolerate me." He poked his bare feet out from under the quilt, and the bell hit the golden ring, making a burst of sound. Qing Xiang: "As the general saw, I am a slave. My master treated me badly, so I escaped. It was so easy to get rid of him, so naturally I don't want to go back."
Qin Yanfeng held one of his feet, and saw that his slender ankle was covered with many old wounds, as if someone had cut it with a sword, the deepest one was on the back of the foot, and under the white skin, there were bruised veins, like before. Caused by a severe injury.His heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help stroking the wound lightly.
Yuan Jing said indifferently: "He gave me this anklet. In the past, there was an iron chain in the middle so that he could tie me up anytime and anywhere. Later, the iron chain was taken off, but the anklet remained on. Golden silk, I found countless magic weapons and tried to break it, as the general saw, many scars were added in vain, but none of them worked."
Qin Yanfeng squeezed the ring tightly without saying a word, and squeezed it away with all his strength, he didn't expect this tiny thing to stay still, not to mention broken, even if it was bent, it didn't even bend a bit.Now he believed it. Thinking of his previous mask, he couldn't help but said again: "He gave you that mask too?"
Yuan Jing said without blinking: "Yes, he is narrow-minded and never likes me to associate with others. Every time I appear in front of people, I have to wear that mask so that people will not see me. I want to be a masculine man, but I want to hide it." How can I be willing to live with my head and tail down and rely on others, I would rather be killed on the way out, and never go back to live that kind of life again. If the general really wants to thank me, then take me with you."
Qin Yanfeng listened to his tone, and when he mentioned the excitement, there was a hint of water in his eyes, his heart softened, and he sighed: "It is not difficult for me to protect you now, but after returning to Wei, Your Majesty will blame you, I am afraid you will To be implicated."
Yuan Jing said: "Who am I, the general? I can only enjoy wealth but not share adversity? As long as I can follow you, I am not afraid of anything."
Qin Yanfeng smiled slightly and said: "Forget it, it's up to you." Seeing his tired and sick face, he helped him to lie down with his own hands: "You should have a good rest first, and I will take you back to Dawei in a few days." He slowly opened his eyes behind his back, watched his tall figure leave from the tent, heaved a sigh of relief, and fell asleep in peace.
Fusang Pass was already in chaos. As soon as Chu Yu got the news that Wei Bing was fleeing and making trouble the day before yesterday, he personally dispatched people to round up.Unexpectedly, this young guy, Wei Jun, was also extra cautious. Once the looting was over, he immediately fled without a trace.He ran around for a day and returned without success until night.When returning to the city, I saw Cao Ruyi waiting at the door, and when I saw the army returning, I rushed to him immediately: "Is Your Majesty with you! I can't find him anywhere!"
Chu Yu's heart sank heavily, and he grabbed his collar and said, "He's not here with me, what's going on!"
Cao Ruyi said that since His Majesty was called away in the middle of the night, he never came back. He searched for it in the city, but everyone said they didn’t see it. They thought it was Chu Yu who took him away. It was a foregone conclusion, and his expression became more and more anxious.
When he was angry, Chu Yu planned to chase after him, thinking that he is now in a hot temper, and now he is angry, if he insists on provoking him, it will make him unhappy.In addition, the military newspaper came later, and put him aside, but he didn't return for a day.Chu Yu immediately ordered to summon all the guards in the city today, and interrogated them one by one. The guards did not dare to hide, and told the truth: "At dawn, it seems that someone rode out of the city..." Still thinking about that person Seeing the expression of the person seated inadvertently, he panicked, knelt down and said: "My lord, forgive me, that person walked too fast, we didn't see his appearance clearly."
Although they didn't dare to say it clearly, everyone guessed in their hearts who was going out.Fusang Pass extends in all directions, and one day is enough to go to a place that is hard to find.What's more, there are still Wei soldiers making trouble outside. Once the two sides meet, the consequences will be disastrous.Thinking of this episode, Chu Zhan was planning to gloat and say a few words. When he looked up, he saw his elder brother's extremely gloomy eyes. He was frightened for a while, and suddenly lost the courage to speak.
Although Chu Shao didn't know Yuan Jing's identity, but based on what he saw in the past few days, the relationship between his elder brother and him was obviously extraordinary.They lived here as guests, and Chu Shao was afraid that he would clash with the people of Fusang Pass in a fit of anger, so he hurriedly said: "Brother, don't worry, I'll take someone to look for it right away."
Not long after Xu Miting heard the news, he also rushed over. Although he didn't have any friendship with Yuan Jing, because of his old friend's face, he treated him differently in his heart.He didn't ask about the affairs in the city for a long time, and suddenly took over, his vigorous and resolute actions remained the same as before.Without waiting for others to speak, he dealt with those who were not on duty first, and sent more than half of the guards in the city to look for them.Ma Canjun comforted him, Yuan Jing was always diligent in accepting gifts, most of the time he just went out for a stroll and came back in a while.Xu Miting snorted heavily, and in front of Chu Yu, said coldly: "What do you know, as long as you have something to do with Chu, you will be fine."
When the voice fell to the ground, the surroundings were deadly silent, and even Chu Zhan was angered by his words. If the second brother hadn't been holding his hand beside him, he might have had an attack by now.Seeing Chu Yu standing up slowly, Fang Qing was also a little nervous, not knowing how to end the fight.Unexpectedly, Chu Yu went out without saying a word, and took his own people to look for it.
Several groups of people ran around all night, and when they finally found the village where Yuan Jing was staying, there was only a mess in front of them.Most of the houses were burned and destroyed, supplies were scattered all over the ground, and the corpses of villagers who had been hacked by knives could be seen everywhere. A hunter who hadn’t returned at night knelt in the muddy water, wailing loudly with his arms around his tragically dead wife and children.Fang Qing saw that Chu Yu's face was getting more and more ugly, and comforted him: "Your Majesty, a lucky person has his own appearance. Even if he is in danger, he will surely turn the bad luck into good luck. You...don't worry too much."
Chu Yu looked at the soldiers who restrained the corpses, and nodded absently.They temporarily set up a grass shed and put the villagers' corpses in it one by one.Half of them were hacked and burned, and their faces were already blurred.Chu Yu looked at them one by one, his expression relaxed, and he said, "Bury well."
Several soldiers worked together to prop up a collapsed cowshed, and saw a corpse covered in a blood-stained cloak in the chaotic haystack, one of them was Chu Yu's guard, seeing the familiar clothes, "Yeah!" With a cry, he didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly held it in front of the coach.
This cloak was put on by Chu Yu himself on Yuan Jing that day, and now the lining is mottled with blood, and the chest is down, almost soaked in blood.Chu Yu's fingers turned white, and he hissed, "Where is the person?" Fang Qing went over and carried the person up, only to see that the person was more than seven feet long, and his cheeks were burnt and bloody, making it difficult to recognize. The shape is surprisingly familiar.When he squatted down to check, he saw something shining golden on his ankles, which turned out to be a pair of ankle rings.Fang Qing gasped, looked up at Chu Yu, but didn't know how to report.
When Wushitu heard the news and came, he saw Chu Yu standing beside the corpse, his burly body blocked most of the body, so that he could not see clearly the appearance of the fallen person, but the pair of anklets lay in front of his eyes, making it hard to see. ignore.He said in amazement: "This is... your little emperor?"
Chu Yu suddenly pulled out a short sword and slashed at his ankle rings. After hearing a sound of gold and stone colliding, the pair of ankle rings broke apart. Chu Yu said coldly: "It's not him." Withdrew the short sword Jian, walked into the crowd, and continued to dispatch people to search for his trace.
There was a heavy rain in the middle of the night, and the horseshoe marks were washed away by the rain, making it impossible to trace.The people searched around the village for five or six days, and even sent people to the bottom of the cliff. They only had to turn the land over, but they still couldn't find any clues.Chu Yu hasn't closed his eyes much in the past few days, and he will wake up in less than two hours of sleep, his eyes are red from the heat, and he becomes more and more taciturn as the days pass.Seeing that he was not in the right condition, Fang Qing was afraid that he would not be able to hold on, so he privately begged Wu Shitu to persuade him.
Wu Shitu was obsessed with him, and wanted to worry about Yuan Jing chasing and killing Prince Wei, but now that the trouble has disappeared by himself, deep down in his heart, he actually feels a little fortunate.Glancing at Chu Yu's gloomy look, he avoided it and said, "His sweetheart is gone, and now he may have the idea of killing someone. Who can he listen to? I don't want to touch this bad luck."
Fang Qing said worriedly: "My lord hasn't had a good rest for several months because of this battle, and his body is still injured. How can I stand this kind of cooking?"
Wu Shitu flicked the whip back and forth, and said slowly: "It's been so long, if he is still here, he should have been found anyway, either your little emperor is sincerely hiding and can't come out, or he is already dead. "Fang Qing's expression changed: "Your Majesty, be careful!" Wu Shitu sneered, and said indifferently: "I don't say it, but you know it very well in your heart. The prince is sad and confused, and you will be confused too? Long pain It’s better to have a short pain. If you are really worried about him, find a corpse with a similar description and trick him to let the string in his heart relax. Although it hurts a bit, but as time goes by, there will be a day when it will get better .”
Fang Qing was taken aback: "How can I do that?"
Wu Shitu looked at Chu Yu's figure standing by the torch, shook his head, and sighed: "If you can't find someone, he won't let go. You let him come, just to see him suffer for a few more days." .”
The war is initially decided, and there are still some important tasks to be done.But Chu Yu has no intention of returning to the teacher.A few more days later, the large army of the Yan Army who counted the aftermath at Weiguan returned successfully, and before entering the customs, they were transferred to Chu Yu's side to follow and find someone.For a while, the mountain villages near Fusang Pass were filled with soldiers, and the people were panicked, not knowing what happened again.Chu Shao tried to persuade him a few times, but it was all in vain. Before, he felt that his elder brother treated this Heqi envoy unusually, but now it seems that it is simply too extraordinary.Suspicious in his heart, he quietly called his third brother over and asked his eldest brother what was the relationship with this person?
Chu Zhan was in a good mood, raised his hand and shot a bird from the tree, and said with a smile, "I don't know what the relationship is, but look at the way the elder brother is now, the widower whose wife died is not as frustrated as him."
Chu Shao couldn't bear it anymore, snatched his bow and arrow with his hands, and cursed: "You bastard, if you dare to talk nonsense again, I will teach you on behalf of my elder brother!" Chu Zhan laughed, raised his foot and ran away without a trace.
