Crown Sword

The determination of Feng Rulian's eyes and the steadfastness of heart have reached the point where rocks will not turn, Mount Tai will not collapse, seas will not flow across, and rivers will not return to their heads.She can tolerate the pure and innocent Tuobaxiang, but this does not mean that she can forget that the pain caused by the broken mountains and rivers, her parents, her brothers and sisters, all died under the tyranny of Zhao State Down.

She clenched her hands so tight that her knuckles turned white and her nails turned blue.

Tuoba Xiang's face was burning hot, and she was completely shocked. She couldn't fully understand the content of the obscure Central Plains poems, but at this moment her chest was agitated, and she couldn't help being moved by that fiery emotion.The two people in front of her were different from what she had seen before, and the sincerity was so touching that at this moment, it surpassed her family, country and race.

"Sister Feng..." She lowered her head and unconsciously took half a step back, trying to escape.

Feng Rulian walked towards Tuobaxiang, took her arm, wrapped her shoulders, and said softly: "It's never wrong to love the country and the country, and to be angry and passionate. Those who deserve to be condemned are those who don't treat people as human beings." brute."

"Om-"

Gongyang Qi hit the saber back, Feng Rulian turned the scabbard with his left hand, just in time to catch it.

"Amazing!"

That kind of prowess is not the prowess of martial arts, but the gap in knowledge, experience, courage and even the mind. Tuobaxiang was admiring him, he let go of the hand holding the scabbard, and helped the person in front of him to sit down: " You are right, I don’t like that kind of bullying and bullying! Sister, you love your hometown so much, your hometown must be very beautiful, can you tell me about it? I have never been to Jiangnan, What is it like there? Is everyone as gentle as you? What do you eat, do you also eat cattle and sheep?"

"Jiangnan? There are ten miles of wind and lotus in the south of the Yangtze River, small bridges and flowing water, and hundreds of beautiful flowers..." Feng Rulian said, "In spring, we fight grass and release paper kites. In midsummer, we listen to cicadas and drink plum wine. Laba dig lotus root and bamboo shoots."

"Lotus root? What is lotus root?"

"It's a very delicious food, like this," Feng Rulian picked up the branch painting and showed it to her, "Although it's broken, it's like... like..."

Tuobaxiang laughed: "Sister Feng, one day, you will definitely return to Jiangnan!"

Feng Rulian was very satisfied with her reaction, so he covered his lips and laughed, and recovered as before, pulling people to continue explaining.From literati famous articles to herbal medicine everywhere, Tuobaxiang found it more interesting the more she listened to it. Brutally vulgar.

"I really envy my sister, she is dignified and grand, um... she is well-read and knowledgeable!" Tuobaxiang tried her best to pick out two compliments from her mind.

"I still envy you!" Feng Rulian said, "Innocence, carefree." She said that it was not enough, and turned to Gongyang Qi for confirmation, "Brother Qi, do you think so?"

Gong Yang Qi was adding firewood, and he glanced at Tuoba Xiang, not wanting to participate.Seeing it, Tuobaxiang teased him casually: "You're not still holding grudges for what happened last time, are you so stingy?"

"What's the matter?" Feng Rulian looked bewildered.

Tuobaxiang's heart skipped a beat, and she realized that Gongyang Qiding didn't have the nerve to tell his wife what she said about him, so she lowered her head and muttered embarrassingly: "It's nothing, I just talked nonsense and offended him!"

Gongyang Qi couldn't listen anymore, so he found an excuse to leave and went to see the people in the village on the shore.To avoid getting them involved in the hunt, during the day he had already persuaded these people to go to the cloud first, and it was time to leave one day later, he wanted to explain his plans in detail to the heads of several households in order to prove his strength loyalty.

Tuoba Xiang then sat idly for a while with Feng Rulian, and bid farewell to her eyes drooping from sleepiness in the dead of night, then bid farewell to leave.

On the way, she happened to meet Gongyang Qi who was coming to pick her up, and she patted her chest and promised, "I never thought you would be a lover. We children of the grassland dare to love and hate, so I won't talk about it in the future! I like Sister Feng very much." , You don’t have to guard against me like a thief.”

How can he be defensive!

A girl, although she is a princess, is ignorant of world affairs, and the political situation of the government and the opposition are incomprehensible. She lives happily in her own world, so what can she do against it?

The reason why he avoids Tuobaxiang is not because this girl used to speak bluntly, nor because he is narrow-minded, but because he understands Feng Rulian too well, for the sake of his family and country, for "Kaiyang", for their common ideals and goals, A mere remnant can be thrown away, not to mention feelings!

She can always make rational choices, but Gongyang Qi can't. He is just an ordinary person, so he will have a preference.

----

Later, and later, it was an unbearable nightmare, the blood of that night dyed the Wuding River red.

Most of the refugees by the river moved away. Their ambitions were unrewarded but their original intentions remained unchanged, so they followed Gong Yangqi's suggestion and were willing to go deep into the country of Dai with him to search for more veterans like them who were displaced and could not return home. Look for those companions who are deeply in prison and still do not forget their homeland. More importantly, they still want to make contributions, want to break into the enemy's interior, and want to cooperate with the outside world in the next Northern Expedition.

Of course, after all these years of lingering, unavoidable integration and distraction, there are still a small number of people who choose to stay here for a long time, including the boatman at the ferry, and some wanderers who take their seats as their seats.

At night, Feng Rulian felt constant pain in his abdomen, which was a sign of imminent delivery. Tuoba Xiang hurriedly went to find the woman who stayed behind to deliver the baby, but found that there was blood and water outside the house.

"Kill, kill—"

The exclamation was still stuck in the throat, the person had been chopped into two pieces, Tuobaxiang and the killer looked at each other, still in shock, closed the door heavily, kicked the broken wooden barrel to block it, and then went to Fufeng Rulian.

Feng Ru is good at training ears, so he can hear the movement naturally, relying on his kung fu foundation, he endured the pain and Tuoba Xiang turned out the back window, stuck to the base of the wall, and ran all the way outside.

Fortunately, Tuobaxiang's martial arts are not bad, and a few sharp-sighted people came to intercept them, but she killed them all.

The two of them ran and crawled to the east for two miles, when a whistle suddenly sounded at night, saying that misfortunes never come singly, and Tuoba Xiang had just emerged from the slope when he ran into knights from the Helan tribe chasing him. The wind is like training to shrink into the pit.

But hiding like this is not an option, Feng Rulian's amniotic fluid has broken, and he can't move at all, as long as they get off their horses and search here, they will be found sooner or later.

"I'll lure them away!" Tuoba Xiang didn't dare to hesitate.

Feng Rulian heard the sound of horseshoes and was still awake: "I'm fine."

When she said this, Tuoba Xiang became worried instead, and seeing Gong Yang Qi left and right, her hands and feet went limp and her heart trembled: "But..."

"careful!"

Feng Rulian grabbed her hand, trying to pull out a comforting smile.

Tuoba Xiang was shocked, as if she had gained supernatural power, great courage arose in her heart, she grasped the scimitar, gritted her teeth and touched the small forest on the other side. Before she left, she looked into Feng Rulian's eyes and said every word Said: "We children of the grassland have clear grievances and grievances. You have saved me twice, and I will not abandon you. Don't worry, even if I try my best, I will keep your mother and child safe!"

The soil on the grassland is shallow, the water storage is insufficient, and the growth of trees is not tall. Especially in the forests, it is difficult to see the thick and strong branches surrounding them, and most of them are as thick as one hand.

Tuobaxiang took out the Ming Dy that he carried with him, grabbed a handful of the finest sand, and blocked the ejection mechanism, but it didn't block it, but cut a small hole with a machete.The people from the Helan Department turned their backs to her at the moment, and taking advantage of this opportunity, she tied Mingdi to the tip of the most resilient Populus euphratica tree, bent down hard, and ejected in another direction.

After Ming Di, who was not tightly bound, flew out, she threw herself forward and remained motionless.

Running against the wind, the fine sand flowed out of the hole and rushed up to the sky. The people from the Helan tribe heard the sound and chased in the opposite direction, gradually walking away.Tuobaxiang heaved a sigh of relief, then got up, turned around and rushed back.

Before he arrived, he bumped into Gongyang Qi who was soaked in blood and broke out of the siege on the way.

"Who are those people?"

"Tuobaxiang, where is Rulian?"

The two spoke in unison, there were priorities, and it was Tuobaxiang who answered him first, leading people to go: "Follow me!"

Down the leeward slope, Feng Rulian tore off the clothes and twisted them into knots and held them in his mouth, not daring to make a sound. The labor pains hit his hands, and his nails pinched his palms.

"Sister Feng!"

Tuoba Xiang rushed forward and hugged him, but the wetness she felt was not sweat, but sticky blood, and she couldn't help shaking.

How to do?

Look at her ginger-colored face, she seems to be taking in more air than exhaling, if she faints... Tuobaxiang's hands and feet are cold, I can't imagine.At this time, Gongyang Qi followed closely behind, without hesitation, rushed over to hold Feng Rulian's hand, no matter whether it was to protect her heart veins or give strength, in short, she kept sending internal strength into her body.

"What are you doing standing up?"

Tuoba Xiang burst into tears: "I have never given birth to a child, and I don't know how to deliver a child!"

Gongyang Qi was silent for a moment, turned his hands and pushed her, pushed her out, and said coldly: "Go, hurry up now! Since you can't help, don't get in your way!"

"what?"

Tuoba Xiang was dumbfounded.

Gongyang Qi is gentle in nature, and at this moment, he doesn't care about his demeanor, and yells at her: "Let's go!"

Tuobaxiang burst into tears, picked up the scimitar, turned around and left, feeling aggrieved, she has never had a child and can't help, can this be her fault?

After running away angrily for a while, she suddenly shivered——

Just an ordinary tribe by the river, even if they are refugees from the Jin Kingdom, they shouldn't have any deep hatred, so that it can lead to a catastrophe in the massacre of the village, and the people from the Helan tribe are obviously not all the way, so those men in black must be They came here for Gongyang Qi and Feng Rulian, they didn't think she was in the way, they just didn't want her to get involved in the murder!

Thinking of this, she clenched her fists heavily, raised her knife and headed towards the direction where the men in black were swarming. She couldn't help with giving birth, but she wasn't afraid of fighting and killing people!

On the other side, Gongyang Qi held Feng Rulian's arm, trying to help her away, but the latter wiped his arm away: "Brother Qi, you shouldn't have said that, if there was no Miss Tuoba just now, I would have died a long time ago."

"Isn't she clamoring to repay her kindness, just pay back the present." Gongyang Qi made up his mind.

Feng Rulian looked into his eyes and sighed: "I can see that she treats you... Ah! Ah!" Seeing that she was in unbearable pain, Gongyang Qi hurriedly handed over his palm and held it for her. , Feng Rulian clenched his teeth and endured the pain, his eyes were red, and he tried to speak, "Listen, if you want to gain a firm foothold in Daiguo, gather strength again, and confuse the enemy to catch them off guard, this is the best way." Opportunity, the whole world, no one will doubt it!"

"You know what you're talking about!"

"I know, I'm sober! For the sake of our beliefs, we can give up everything." Feng Rulian burst into tears, and a look of shame appeared on her face. She was ashamed of her husband, and also guilty of Tuobaxiang.

Gong Yang was speechless, and nodded after a while: "Okay, okay... But even so, how can I use her?"

"It's not a use, it's an exchange." Feng Rulian let go of his hand and raised his head with difficulty. "If I'm gone, I hope there is someone who can accompany you, take care of you, and live a good life. This is what you give her in exchange." Tuoba Xianbei has always been far away in the grasslands, and there is no direct conflict with the Central Plains, and Tuoba Xiang is a kind person, on balance, it is acceptable.

Gongyang Qi took a deep breath: "No, no, never!" There was the sound of weapons clashing in the distance, and he realized that Tuobaxiang hadn't left, so he was determined to replace him.

"I won't agree..."

"Brother Qi, can't you see the situation clearly? Even if I can give birth smoothly, I won't be able to cross this river tonight!"

Gongyang raised his two swords and went into the night, generously and sadly: "Whoever says he can't get out, even if I die with him, I will keep you both safe!"

"Brother Qi?"

"Brother Qi!"

No matter how much Feng Rulian called out, he just smiled miserably and never looked back.

Seeing Gongyang Qi's return, Tuoba Xiang's eyes brightened when he was fighting, and he was even more convinced that his guess was right, and he swung his knife a little more vigorously, but Feng Rulian was not seen during the fight, so he was very worried.

"I knew you would come back! Where's Sister Feng?"

"She's just begging you."

Gongyang Qi read her mind and easily coaxed her to leave.The facts are indeed as Feng Rulian speculated, Tuobaxiang listened to him very much, as long as he told her well, she turned her head and left without even the slightest hesitation.

"Look, the moon in the sky." The ram drew his sword and pointed towards the sky.

Tuoba Xiang stopped suddenly.

"Where the bright moon shines is the hometown," Gongyang Qi smiled slightly. He is an ordinary man, and his awareness is far less than imagined. In the face of the life and death of his relatives, he is no longer rational, and he can easily abandon his ideals and beliefs. He is ready to die together in his heart. "This is the name I will name my child, male or female."

A baby cried in the distance, piercing the long silent night, Tuobaxiang ran quickly, seeing Feng Rulian lying in a pool of blood, panicked.The child was held in his arms and was still connected to the umbilical cord, but the adults were already dead.

"Wake up! Sister Feng! Wake up!"

Killers are not stupid either, they know how to attack from east to west, how to divert a tiger away from a mountain, and even more know the consequences of a tough fight against a determined swordsman, so they try their best to break out and gather more people.

The murderous aura is strong, as if to drown people in the endless night.

Feng Rulian woke up with a start, and hit Tuobaxiang's arm with a hand knife, pushing him away, and practiced a horizontal roll by himself, summoning the saber to block the flying blade.She lowered her head and looked at the child reluctantly, with a cold heart, she grabbed Tuobaxiang's scimitar, cut off the umbilical cord herself, then tore off her clothes, wrapped the baby, and entrusted it to Tuobaxiang.

"What are you doing! Don't you want a child?" Tuobaxiang was so frightened that she took back the scimitar and tightly held her arm, for fear that she would do something stupid.

Feng Rulian pressed her hand and shook his head: "I understand, I don't mind, I'm just envious."

"Let's go together!"

"No matter what, I can't leave, the result is just my death, or take him and die with his father." Feng Rulian sneered, "As long as you take the child away, Brother Qi will definitely break out and chase you. Of course, you can also choose to go by yourself, you are the princess acting as the king, as long as you can make it to the next big city, you have a chance of survival."

Feng Rulian put the child on the ground. She didn't want to force her, but she had to do so. For a little selfishness, she could only give the last dose of strong medicine.

"Wow, wow—"

The newborn baby was stained with blood, and its skin was wrinkled into a ball. It didn't look very beautiful, but it was the waving little hand, desperately catching, desperately catching, which made people feel endless hope.

Tuobaxiang's heart skipped a beat, and with extremely complicated emotions, she stretched out her hand.

"Give me the sword!"

The long sword glowing with silver light and the flying blade just now were inserted behind Tuobaxiang.

Feng Rulian repeated in a low voice: "Give me my sword!"

The second batch of killers had arrived, Tuobaxiang heard the call, the moment he picked up the child, he turned around and kicked the sword back into Feng Rulian's hand with the hilt.

"Let's go!" The latter took advantage of the situation and pushed Tuobaxiang hard, threw a piece of Jinshui Bodhi into the swaddle, and finally braced himself up, blocking the front, and said loudly: "People in Jiangu, the sword is there, the people are there, If a person wants to perish, first ask the sword to break it!"

"farewell."

The man on the ferry lay in the dead man's heap, clutching his mouth with his hand, not daring to make a sound, just watching the woman in white with the sword, fighting to death little by little.

Tuobaxiang tore off her coat while crying, wrapped the child tightly in front of her chest, entangled with her body, killed people numbly when people chased her, and ran away when no one was there. She didn't dare to stop, just like this Traveling through the wilderness, even though my heart is tired and I have countless thoughts of giving up, my legs just don't listen.

She is facing the moon, not knowing whether the ram is alive or dead, let alone where the dawn is.

"I'm a princess!"

She wiped away tears and told herself in her heart that she must not just die here!
