"One hundred taels of gold?" Qu Liying frowned upon hearing this, turned the brush in her hand around, and said in a low voice: "The price is too high, I'm afraid if you bribe it, someone will report on it."

When the head of the Ministry of Rites heard this, he couldn't help but break out in cold sweat. Before he could plead guilty, Qu Liying and Gan Yi learned that Yijing had driven Lin Jiu out of Ningwu.

"It's really a death before the master."

Gan Yi couldn't help but fell into thinking, and said worriedly: "Under Yijing's command, it's still possible to do this. I'm afraid it's not the young battalion commander's efforts alone?"

"Then who else is there?" Qu Liying tilted her head and said, "He only has contacts with Ningwu internally. Who would go against Yijing's wishes to help an unknown battalion commander? All in all, we have to find another strategy gone."

Gan Yi looked around, called a servant, and asked, "Where did Gan Biao go?"

"Second master is meeting with guests today and went to the city."

Qu Liying rolled her eyes.

The next day, Yijing received another leave from Changming, saying that he was going to Wangcheng, and he was very depressed at the moment. The battalion commander seemed to ask for leave from time to time to go out recently. He and Gu Xiaowu should also start arranging for the national examination next year. In martial arts, we must beware of Gan Yi and Gan Biao's secret moves. He really has no time to care about him, so he can only let Chu Guangliang be optimistic about his battalion commander.

However, Chu Guangliang had no choice.

Thinking about it carefully, a few months have passed, except for Lin Jiu's incident, the Prime Minister's Mansion has been calm and there is no movement, which makes Yijing even more disturbed.

Chang Ming chose a box in a small restaurant, and when Xing Sheng came, he couldn't wait to ask: "Do you know about the Commander?"

"What's the matter?" Xing Sheng was puzzled.

"I met Senior Brother Nangong, he said he knew the Commander, but the Commander didn't know anything about him."

Xing Cheng was silent for a while, and then said sadly: "Master has indeed said, but there is no way to recover, so don't ask any more questions. In front of the great army commander, it's fine as usual."

Changming was silent.

It was almost evening when Chang Ming walked out of the tavern. As if he had sensed something, Chang Ming turned his head and saw a familiar figure. The man was walking unsteadily on the street. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, he did not appear to be shining brightly. , but lost his soul.

"Luo Jianghong!" Chang Ming couldn't help calling him.

Hearing his voice, the man almost jumped up from the ground as if awakened from a dream. Seeing that Chang Ming was in front of him, he couldn't help being overjoyed, and rushed forward: "Chang Ming! Why are you here, have you eaten yet?" ? There is a good eight-treasure rice in the east of the city, do you like it, let me buy some for you?"

Chang Ming was a little helpless with this cannonball questioning. In the end, he didn’t care about his official status, but said that he had already eaten dinner, so Luo Jianghong excitedly took him to buy eight-treasure rice—it seemed that he believed Li Changming This Jiang Yuan just likes eight-treasure rice.

"You didn't eat?" Chang Ming asked him.

Luo Jianghong thought for a while and said, "I haven't eaten, do you want to accompany me to eat?"

"No time", Chang Ming almost slapped him on the face, "I'm going back to Jianhe Valley, but I can treat you to a piece of eight-treasure rice and take it away with me."

"Then I'll pay for it." As he said that, he went to rummage through his wallet.

"I still have a lot of salary..." Chang Ming curled his lips indifferently, telling him not to waste his time, and reached out to look for the purse, but Luo Jianghong held him tightly and refused to let go.

I don't know if it's because of the sunset, but Chang Ming saw that his face was reddish, and said hesitantly: "Let me pay for it! How can Xingzhu pursue Jiang Yuan and refuse to even buy a piece of eight-treasure rice."

Li Changming was silent.

Seeing the setting sun, Yijing simply tidied up the Xuanwu Pavilion and prepared to go home, but he never thought that the door of Xuanwu Pavilion would be knocked open suddenly, and Wen Ji came in in a panic, and said out of breath: "Gan Yi has movement!"

"Where is Li Changming! Tell him to come quickly!" Yijing said in a hurry, and as soon as the words came out, he remembered that the commander of the Seventh Battalion had already taken leave and went to Wangcheng.

When Gu Xiaowu received her daughter's letter, she felt a sudden pain in her heart, as if Mount Tai was collapsing, and her mind went blank, she staggered and sat on the ground, no one was around, which made her eyes look more empty.I don't know how long it took before she managed to stand up, turned around and went back to the house, put away the documents, took the knife in her pocket, and went out to leave.

When she arrived at the small forest in the outskirts of the city, the jade rabbit had already risen in the east, and the moonlight was not clear tonight. She groped forward alone based on her memory. The hustle and bustle is far away, the crows and sparrows are startled, the autumn frost has just fallen, and the chill is overwhelming.

Gu Xiaowu clenched the knife in her arms, and finally arrived at a thatched hut among the groves.

This was originally the place where she placed her daughter Gu Yuer, but Gan Yi found out, so she had to send her daughter away in a hurry, never expecting to receive a letter from her daughter today, asking her mother to come here alone at night and not to trouble others.After repeated confirmation, I found that it must be my daughter's handwriting, but at this time... Although she knew it, she still came alone because she cared about her daughter.

"Mother Qing..." Suddenly someone called her softly from the forest.

"Yu'er!" Gu Xiaowu sprinted towards where the voice was coming from. Before she had taken a few steps, she could already see people indistinctly. Gu Xiaowu hadn't had a crush for many years, but she still had a keen sense of smell, and suddenly discovered——her daughter had been marked.

"Mother..." Gu Yu'er's tears flowed from her lips before she shed tears, trembling in Gu Xiaowu's arms, but said nothing. Gu Xiaowu patted her on the back, a soft look flashed in her eyes, and immediately He looked coldly at the group of people surrounding him. Although there was no moonlight, it seemed that those people were holding weapons instead of gifts.

"Yu'er", a man Xingzhu came out out of the crowd, and stretched out his hand to pull Gu Yuer, "You should go back."

"Yu'er!" Gu Xiaowu hugged her daughter and took a step back immediately.

"Don't!" Gu Yu'er burst into tears, "Leave my mother alone! Don't kill her, she raised me up!"

Hearing this, Gu Xiaowu's teary eyes were warm, but the man still refused to let go: "Don't cry, it's not good for the child." As he said that, he wanted to take Gu Yu'er away forcibly, but Gu Xiaowu would hit the knife When the tip is on, you still don't let go, and a group of people waits to watch in a daze, but they don't dare to make a move.

"If you don't let go, you will be buried with your mother!" The man scolded severely, flicked his sleeves, and turned his back as if not paying attention.

The killers around nodded to each other and raised their knives to attack, when they suddenly heard the rustling of leaves and the breaking of branches, like a mountain rain coming, thunder is approaching, they couldn't help being stunned, but there was no wind and rain here——

It was too late and then quickly, three arrows came through Yetou Lin, and hit the eyebrows of three of the killers, everyone was in a panic, the Xingzhu man only heard the exclamation behind him and fell to the ground in fright , trembling like a sieve, turned around with great difficulty, and saw the three killers dying before they could cry out, their eyes wide open, bleeding profusely, it was very terrifying.

Like a gust of wind sweeping across the field, like a heavy rain washing away the dust, two figures rushed out from the dense forest—it was Yijing and Owen Qing.

The long (the commander of the army is so pitiful) gun was like a dragon, and it cut off the throat of a killer who came forward, and then more people surrounded him. To change weapons) guns, pushed forward, just above the elbows and below the shoulders of those killers, the strength made these people not to mention raising their knives, they were even embarrassed to stand, and fell to the ground in twos and threes unexpectedly, just about to When I got up, I pierced my heart for Yijingyi (I don’t blame me for changing weapons). Some survivors also died under Owen’s bow and arrow.

This turmoil gave Gu Xiaowu a chance to breathe, the two did not want to fight, but each took a step back to protect Gu Xiaowu, the two sides were at a stalemate for a while.

"Commander?!" Gu Xiaowu said in surprise.

"Let's discuss later, break through first." Yijing said calmly, holding guns in both hands, looking at the eagle.

Having said that, it was only a quick moment just now, and now the four of them are heavily surrounded, and there are two Jiang Yuan who are powerless, taking care of the left and right, it is difficult to break through the encirclement safely.

The killers came forward one after another, but thinking about the fight just now, they didn't dare to step forward easily. It was the Xingzhu man who gritted his teeth and stomped his feet to give the order, and another battle began.

Yijing waved his hand horizontally, temporarily retreating the person in front of him, but another killer came out from his two wings, and went straight to Gu Xiaowu and the two of them. Following the footsteps of latecomers.

Although it can resist one or two, but it is not a long-term solution to know the number of opponents.

"Wen Qing!"

"Yes!" Owen nodded understandingly, and Yijing no longer hesitated, held the long (tired) gun in his hand, flipped the gun several times while turning his fingers, and beat the person in front of him seven times Hu Basu immediately got up and jumped, stepped on the bodies of several people who were lying on the ground, and stabbed straight with the long (blame me) spear, like a dragon coming out of a hole, with great momentum, the man had already fallen on the ground before he recovered his senses. On the tree behind him, he slid down tremblingly along the trunk, and the long (ah, eh) gun pierced right next to his ear, piercing into the wood three-pointed, and the quarrel trembled. The fiery red pattern on it showed the flames of hell. As soon as he raised his hand, he disappeared into ashes. The man didn't dare to look at the fear anymore, but was forced to keep his eyes wide open, as if a person with declining fortunes still misses the world.

Gu Xiaowu saw that the weapon had stopped for a while, and Owen leaned on his abdomen to slam the knife, so he didn't have time to think, and hurriedly supported him.

"Let him go!" Yijing scolded.

Seeing that the man was captured by Yijing, Gu Yu'er screamed and wanted to rush forward, but Gu Xiaowu held her hand tightly, causing her to fall to the ground accidentally.

"Mother! My daughter begs you, don't kill him..." Before she finished speaking, her eyes were already filled with tears.

"Let him go!" Yijing shouted again.

The Xingzhu man regained his composure and said tremblingly, "Let... let them go."

Ou Wenqing gripped the longbow tightly, not daring to let go, protecting Gu Xiaowu and Gu Yuer and retreating step by step, never thinking that Gu Yuer would forcefully break free from Gu Xiaowu.

"Yu'er!" Follow your mother!

"I can't go," Gu Yuer cried tearfully: "Mother, I have been marked by him, and I will have a child soon. I can't live without Xingzhu!"

Gu Xiaowu gritted her teeth and stomped her feet: "Don't you understand! He marked you not because he likes you, but because he wants to use you to kill his mother!"

"I know..." Gu Yu'er was powerless to pay the ground, and bowed deeply, her voice was already blurred, but in Gu Xiaowu's ears, every word and every word was as clear as a knife's edge, "But I...I can't do it Ah! I'm sorry for you, but he is Xingzhu and I am Jiang Yuan, and I am destined to be hard to part with."

Gu Xiaowu seemed to miss a beat in her heart, and it took a while to find her empty eyes, and said to her: "There will be other Jiangyuan around him, if he can't get it this time, he won't look at you more in the future! Go with Muqing! Muqing and you have lived together for more than ten years, isn't it better to be a happy master? Even if the land falls apart, Muqing will protect you!"

Yijing heard the words, took a long look at Gu Xiaowu, don't say that Jiang Yuan is attached to Xingzhu, the person in front of him has already surpassed the ordinary people, holding his head high above the court, and looking down on the world.

Gu Xiaowu's words made Gu Yu'er confused for a moment. Seeing that the man was not feeling well, he had to shout: "Don't leave! You are mine! You still have my child, you can't escape!"

Gu Xiaowu's expression froze, she held her daughter's hand again, and pulled Gu Yu'er up, ready to rush out of the encirclement with Yijing Owen.

"Don't go!" The man yelled again, Yijing's nipples scratched his neck with blood stains and stained the clothes on his shoulders red, he couldn't care less.

In the blink of an eye, Gu Yuer suddenly threw off Gu Xiaowu's hand and slammed into Yijing, which made him stunned for a moment. The man took advantage of the opportunity and fled a foot away. After hurting her, he had no choice but to let go, not wanting to fight anymore, pushed the two of them forward to block the killer who was trying to stop him, and led Gu Xiaowu and Owen on the horse and ran away.

Gu Xiaowu never looked back.
