"I want all the Gu zombies in your hands."
Yang Zhao's pupils constricted, he couldn't believe it, "All?"
"I still want to lend you someone." Ruan Qing said, looking at Yang Guhuai.
Only then did Yang Zhao calm down, "Okay."
Ruan Qing seemed to see through the other party's thoughts, and emphasized again, "Remember, it's all. If one is missing, it's not all."
"Don't worry, Dudu." Yang Zhao said, "Since I chose to go on Dudu's ship, I still have some credit. Dudu will see if I can go on the road tomorrow, let my subordinates prepare first."
"Yes." Ruan Qing smiled again.
"Come here, take the governor down to settle down and take care of him carefully."
Seeing Ruan Qing's figure disappear, the corners of Yang Zhao's mouth that had been raised all the time fell.
"Master." Yang Guhuai said, "You have worked so hard for so many years, do you want to hand it over to others?"
"Don't worry." Yang Zhao stood up and slowly crossed the path, "These voodoo corpses are naturally controlled by you, and Ruan Qing probably knew this before letting you follow. Presumably he was also afraid that he would not be able to control himself and would be caught instead." Devour. You just follow, these voodoo corpses are controlled by him on the surface, but in fact they are your personal soldiers."
After a pause, he continued, "Be careful on this trip, Ruan Qing can still use you and me, and won't do much, but Yang Qiu is not a good friend. If the situation is not right, you must be safe."
"Master, don't worry." Yang Guhuai nodded, "Young man, go down and get ready."
On the second day, led by Yang Zhao, Ruan Qing entered the underground palace again, passed through the secret room, and entered the mountain, only to see an army lined up densely at the mountain pass.Estimated thousands of people.
Ruan Qing's heart beat rapidly several times suddenly, as if the blood was churning and clamoring.
He suppressed the strangeness, knowing that it was a Gu corpse, and the reason for this was that the Gu corpse that had devoured his essence and blood caused trouble when it saw its owner.
He approached and found that these voodoo corpses looked like ordinary people, but their eyes were dull and empty, and their eye sockets were scarlet.If you don't observe carefully, you won't notice the difference.
"Master Yang is so courageous, he has cultivated so many Gu corpses in a few years." Ruan Qing guessed, "It must be two or three thousand."
Yang Zhao said with a smile, "According to the governor's praise, there are a total of [-]."
Ruan Qing was stunned for a moment, then clapped her hands and said, "Master Yang is really capable, but it's amazing that he has developed such military strength in three or four years."
"The governor has a high reputation."
While talking, the two bypassed the army and arrived at the front line, where Yang Guhuai was already waiting.
"Master Yang, please stay." Ruan Qing said, "On the road below, your servants can follow me."
"I wish the governor every success." Yang Zhao said to Yang Guhuai again, "Since you are traveling with the governor, you must pay attention to it. You must put the governor first."
Yang Guhuai cupped his fists, "No."
Ruan Qing and Yang Guhuai got on their horses and drove away.The army of more than a thousand people followed closely behind, with neat steps and uniform movements, no one said anything, and there was something strange that could not be said.
Yang Zhao stood at the entrance of the valley, watching the army leave before returning.
All the way north.
When approaching Linjing City, the team stopped to rectify.
Ruan Qing sat on a rock, quietly looking at the eastern world.Fragments of hair at the temples fluttered in the breeze.
It seems that many years ago when he followed Cao Cao to seek Dong, the winter when he was stationed was also very cold.
But at that time, Xi Zhicai and Cao Cao gathered a lot of clothes for the guards who knew how to sew to make them better for him to wear.
He was often called to Xi Zhicai's tent to help sort out official documents. Xi Zhicai's tent was always full of charcoal fires, without the slightest bit of cold.Cao Cao also always likes to take him out to camp for some wild game, and the wild animals are hidden in winter, but because Cao Cao is experienced, their harvest is always good.
It was a great time...
Ruan Qing closed her eyes in despair.
He had warned himself to forget, but he couldn't control his thoughts when he was free.
It's already out, why do I still remember...
What should he do so that he can completely let go...
After all, Gu worms are living things, and there are inevitably subtle differences. After a long march, it is inevitable that they have to stop and recuperate.
Yang Guhuai lined up the army and saw that Ruan Qing was just sitting alone, but the cold breath around him seemed to be wrapped in thick sorrow.
He walked over and asked, "When Linjing is approaching, how does the governor plan to capture Yang Qiu? Linjing is deep and the city is high. We don't have any siege equipment, so it may be difficult for us to enter the city for a while."
It's not that Ruan Qing can't complete the task, he just feels sorry for the Gu corpse.These Gu corpses were refined by him, and he felt sorry for the death of one.
Ruan Qing opened her eyes, and her eyes became as clear as water again.
"If you don't tell me, I almost forgot that Linjing is approaching." He whispered like he was muttering to himself.Then he raised his hand and snapped his fingers lightly.
Yang Guhuai didn't understand, so Ruan Qing said calmly, "Look behind you."
Turning around, Yang Guhuai's eyes widened, his expression shocked, and he looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief.
I saw that the [-] Gu corpses were all wearing armor, shining brightly in the sun.A general flag embroidered with the word "Cao" is flying in the wind.
"This is illusion."
Ruan Qing's calm voice sounded behind him.
Yang Guhuai suddenly looked at Ruan Qing, his eyes fixed on him.
I saw Ruan Qing lowered her eyes slightly, the pupils were silent, and the brows remained dull.It seemed that no matter what shocking things came to him, they seemed insignificant and would not cause him any emotional ups and downs.
For some reason, Yang Guhuai felt a little scared.
He felt that Ruan Qing might not be acting in their palms as he and Yang Zhao thought.
Just like when Yang Zhao thought Ruan Qing was bound to die but was still alive, this time the [-] Gu corpses came out of Qi County, do they really belong to them?They and Ruan Qing, who is the prey?
The person in front of him always smiles softly, is gentle and polite, looks very easy to rub, but now he feels that this is just a fake skin that the other party is wearing, and what is hidden under this skin, I am afraid it will not Someone wants to know.
Not surprisingly, Yang Qiu was told by his scouts that there was an army coming, and the gates of the city had already been closed.
At the foot of the city, Ruan Qing ordered the army behind him to stop, and he rode his horse to stop by the moat, not afraid of the row of bows and arrows on the wall that were already drawn and would be shot in the next second, shouting at the top of his voice, "I accept, Pingxi The governor, Ruan Qing, sent an order to come here to set up defenses, and quickly open the city gate!"
After getting the news, Yang Qiu hurriedly came from the city, climbed up the city wall, lay on the side of the parapet to see the situation below the city, turned around and retreated to the side of the city tower, and whispered anxiously to the general who came with him, "I didn't hear that before. News, the governor has sent troops over now, does he already know about us..."
"Hey, general." General Pi raised his hand to interrupt Yang Qiu, and said, "Calm down, general, and don't mess yourself up. Ask about the situation first, and if you really want to defend the city, let them in and slowly move forward." If you really want to kill us, Linjing water is deep and the city is high, and he can't take it for a while, so you can quickly send someone to Ma Chao for help."
Yang Qiu nodded in agreement, and came to the female wall again.
The north was dry, and Ruan Qing's throat was a little dry. He pinched his waist with one hand and tapped his thigh with the riding whip held by the other hand.He tilted his head and squinted.
A head protruded from the city, wearing a high crown, presumably it must have an official position.
He just heard the other party shouting at him, "There was no document before, but today Ma Chao is rebelling, lest some thieves will steal the city, do you have an official document?"
"Yes." Ruan Qing howled again, took out a sealed bamboo tube from behind the heart armor, and raised her hand.
Yang Qiu sent someone to fetch it.
The suspension bridge was slowly lowered, making an overwhelmed creaking sound.
A young general riding a horse came to Ruan Qing's side on the suspension bridge, took the letter and hurried back.The drawbridge was pulled up again.
Seeing that the other party was so careful, Ruan Qing couldn't help but sneered.
The documents are of course real.He was asked to hold the white silk that was stamped first and then added the words.He himself is the governor of Pingxi, how can this document be fake?If it's true or false, then it's Yang Qiu who is talking nonsense with open eyes.
Yang Qiu looked it over quickly, but couldn't tell if it was true or false.
The general at the side said, "Since he dared to send the document, it seems to be true. It is better to let him into the city first, and then get rid of him, lest he go back and report to the governor of Pingxi and ruin the general's affairs."
Yang Qiu nodded.
"General." The assistant general said again, "It can be said that there is no safe place for soldiers in the city, so let him station the soldiers outside the city, and only allow him to enter the city alone. The generals will be eliminated. These soldiers, aren't they all for the general's use?"
The suspension bridge was lowered again, and the gates of Gao'e opened wide.
One came on horseback, followed by two or three.
In front of Ruan Qing, the visitor cupped his hands and said, "Marquis of Linjing, General Yang Qiu, General Cao Qing, welcomes General Cao Qing into the city."
"Thank you." Ruan Qing looked at the other party and smiled, raising his whip with his hand.
He was about to move forward, but was stopped by Yang Qiu.
"General Cao Qing wait a moment."
Ruan Qing looked at Yang Qiu inexplicably, "What's wrong?"
Yang Qiu explained with a sneer, "Well... there is no place to garrison troops in the school grounds in the city, and the general has to camp outside the city. Oh, the general can go into the city with Qiu, and the soldiers outside the city will be rewarded by Qiu Ding with drinks and meat. "
Ruan Qing raised her eyebrows, looked back at her soldiers, pointed with a horsewhip, and then tapped her chest, "What do you mean, you want to separate me from my soldiers?"
Yang Qiu supported Ruan Qing's questioning, and nodded with an apologetic smile.
"Ha." Ruan Qing was amused, he took a deep breath, blinked, "A general, if he doesn't have soldiers in his hands, what's the point? There's no place in the city, right? It's easy to do without a place."
Ruan Qing casually pointed to the city, "Call out your soldiers. I have worked so hard to lead my soldiers away for so long, but it's not because of you that I'm closed. Okay. That’s good, I, Marquis Fanyang, General Pingxi, let’s write my position in the official document. From the perspective of hospitality, you have to invite me in, and from the perspective of official position, you have to listen to me.”
Ruan Qing's title is Marquis of Liyang Ting, which is thousands of miles away from Marquis of Liyang, but he got it more than ten years ago, and he went to other places in these years. Few people can remember, let alone This Yang Qiu who had been in Xiliang for a few years had just surrendered to Cao Cao.
Anyway, Ruan Qing was not afraid of being picked on at all.As long as he has enough momentum and pretends to be like him, the fake is also true.
This man is in debt.
"General." Yang Qiu wondered, "there is really no place in the city. The soldiers in the city have already been familiar with the situation in the city, and they each perform their duties. How can they be changed at will? You, you don't have to make it difficult for you to be an official."
"I don't dare to make things difficult for you." Ruan Qing sneered, "Obviously you have to make things difficult for me. Anyway, I, Ben Hou, this general, will never be separated from my soldiers. I came here on orders from thousands of miles away. Since you are determined not to let me enter this door, then General Ben has no choice but to go back and report the matter here to the governor. Don’t worry, this general is the most honest and will never add fuel to the cake.”
"Boys!" Ruan Qing raised his whip.
Yang Qiu opened his mouth and was about to explain something, when a person behind him spoke up.
"It's because I didn't do my job properly." The man rode forward.Yang Qiu saw clearly that he was a general.
General Pi smiled and said, "The general has worked hard all the way, so it would be inappropriate not to invite you into the city. In the school grounds in the city, there is still room for you to squeeze in. General, please come in."
"Look, you are still sensible, I remember you." Ruan Qing raised the corners of his lips, and did not let go of his raised hand. He continued the words just now and shouted, "Marquis of Linjing, general who seeks bandits, Yang Qiu, Welcome to the city."
Then he drove the horse forward, with a straight body and bright red tassels on his head, like a high-spirited and arrogant general.
The army behind them walked across the suspension bridge one by one and entered the city.
Yang Qiu watched the sergeants rushing in, his face was not very good, and the general at the side held his arm.
He looked over and saw that General Pi shook his head slightly, signaling him to stay calm.
After entering the city, General Nabi led them to settle everything.He also led Ruan Qing to stay in the post house.Just retreated.
After leaving the post house, he came to the mansion to see Yang Qiu.
At this moment, Yang Qiu was sullen, apparently in a bad mood. Seeing that General Pi came in, he waved back the servants and asked, "You just said that you want to separate him from the army, why did you say that you allowed the army to enter the city again? Could it be that you really want to curry favor with General Pingxi?" ? So that you can climb another branch?"
"I don't dare." General Pi hurriedly knelt down and confessed his loyalty, "The general saved his life, how dare he betray the general? The reason why he was let into the city was to keep Cao Qing safe and prevent the incident from spreading to Pingxi University. The governor's office ruined the general's plan, so he didn't discuss with the general and led the army into the city."
After hearing the explanation, Yang Qiu's expression gradually softened, he looked at the lieutenant general kneeling on the ground, and said, "Get up."
"Thank you, General."
"Now that Cao Qing has led an army into the city, what should we do?" Yang Qiu asked.
"This is easy." General Pi said, "The general can go to the post house to apologize for today's incident, ask the reason, and understand the other party's plan. Then set a time and invite the other party to lead a few generals who are actually in charge. When you are a guest in the mansion, at the banquet, the wine is half drunk, and when the other party is unprepared, throw the cup as a sign, so that the ambush knives will hack him to death. As for the troops stationed in the city, they can take Our army secretly controls and monitors, in case the other party comes to rescue if suspicious."
Ruan Qing really couldn't stand Liangzhou's climate, even if she lived there for two years.
His dry throat hurts, and the inside of his nasal cavity, where the broken capillaries are broken, is scabbed, and it hurts even a little movement.
He didn't dare to mobilize the aura in Yuanling to nourish his body.He found that since meeting the Gu corpse army, the yin energy in his body was rampant and uncontrollable, so he could only try his best to adjust his breath to suppress it.
At this moment, the yin energy in his body was agitated again, disturbing his mind, he could only calm down patiently, when he calmed down, someone was watching his door.
Sighing secretly, he patted his cheek, found the feeling of presumptuous arrogance, and got up to open the door.
The gatekeeper saw Yang Qiu's old face.
He jokingly said, "Marquis of Linjing, what's the matter with General Kou?"
Yang Qiu's smiling face was almost unstoppable for a while.
Knowing that you have a high official position, you don't have to step on other people's weaknesses all the time.Why did Governor Pingxi send such an idiot over here?
Cursing in his heart, Yang Qiu's expression of remorse became more and more real, he said, "Today is Qiu Wuzhi, who has chilled the hearts of soldiers who came here from afar, and made General Cao unhappy, so Qiu Te came to make amends."
Reach out and don't hit the smiling face.Ruan Qing looked Yang Qiu up and down, turned sideways, and said, "It's cold outside, come in and tell me."
Yang Qiucheng was terrified.
After entering the room and sitting down, Yang Qiu said, "The general's living here is quite comfortable. If you have any dissatisfaction, you must bring it up, and Qiu will send someone to arrange it."
"That's it." Ruan Qing snorted softly, "Naturally, the bitter cold place can't compare to Yecheng in Xuchang. Let's make a living. If my uncle didn't let me out, I wouldn't bother to come here."
The surname is Cao, and it was arranged by the family. Yang Qiu's mind became active, and he guessed that Ruan Qing should be a junior in the same clan as Cao Cao, and was forced by the family to come out to practice.
Yang Qiu said cautiously, "Yes, yes, yes. In winter in Xiliang, it is much colder than other states and counties. Even the current cold spring is not insignificant. It is difficult for the little general to suffer here. Qiu Ding arranged for his servants to prepare bedding The charcoal fire will not let the little general suffer from the cold."
Satisfied, Ruan Qing narrowed her eyes slightly, "It's more or less the same."
"That..." Yang Qiu saw that Ruan Qing was in a good mood at the moment, so he spoke carefully, "I don't know why the governor asked the little general to defend this place."
"It's not that thief Ma Chao." Ruan Qing frowned and complained, "The chief inspector carefully reported that Ma Chao wanted the army to fight our army in Ji County, and sent another surprise army to go around Hanyang County to Linjing, so that they could go south and take Chang'an directly. After cutting off our army's way back, we attacked twice. The governor sent me here."
Yang Qiu lowered his head slightly, his eyes rolling.
I see……
"General." Yang Qiu said, "I will set up a banquet in the private mansion tomorrow. One is to apologize to the general, and the other is to clean up the dust with my colleagues. I also hope that the general will not be disgusted. Let me save some face and lead the generals and colleagues to come forward." Come, so that we can get to know each other well and fight the enemy side by side."
coming……
Ruan Qing understood in his heart, he said, "Since you are so caring, I can't refuse. Don't worry, I will definitely go tomorrow."
"Then I won't disturb the general's rest." Yang Qiu stood up and said, "Let me go. A servant will add carbon to the general after a while."
Ruan Qing was sitting loosely, with one leg curled up on the ground, one leg propped up in a circle, one arm resting on her knee, her body slightly tilted, a typical sitting posture favored by celebrities of aristocratic families.
He didn't get up either, and looked up at Yang Qiu with a smile.After Yang Qiu finished speaking, he waved lazily, "Back, back."
Yang Qiu exited the room, and the moment the door closed, the smile on Ruan Qing's face quickly collapsed.It was as cold as ice.
After a while, the door was knocked again.
Ruan Qing dragged out a long tune and lazily called out, "Come in."
The door was opened, wrapped in a gust of cold wind, and fine white scrambling to drift in.
"Is it snowing outside?" Ruan Qing asked another gossip.
It was Yang Guhuai who came, and while closing the door, he answered in a low voice, "It's not long after the first visit."
Is the downturn in Xiliang so severe... Ruan Qing thought.
Yang Guhuai walked up to him to salute, and said, "The army has made arrangements. As the general said, Yang Qiu sent people to spy on him."
Ruan Qing was lying cross-legged on the bed with a helmet between her legs, and Bai Jie's index finger was wrapped around the red tassel.
"Don't worry about him, you just need to keep the Gu zombies from showing their flaws."
Yang Guhuai nodded, "Don't worry, General."
"You have to go to Yang Qiu's mansion with me tomorrow for a banquet."
Yang Guhuai frowned slightly, "Yang Qiu invited me and the general to the mansion, I'm afraid the banquet will not be a good one, but a Hongmen banquet."
"What?" Ruan Qing smiled, and looked sideways at Yang Guhuai, "Don't you dare?"
"The general misunderstood." Yang Guhuai hurriedly said, "The master said that the villain should obey the general's arrangements. The villain is only worried about the general's safety."
Ruan Qing laughed lightly and remained silent.
Yang Guhuai said again, "General, tomorrow you and I will go to the banquet together, what about the affairs in the army?"
"You don't have to worry about it, just keep the Gu corpse safe and sound, and don't make trouble." Ruan Qing raised her eyebrows, caressing the pattern on the helmet, and sighed, "Tomorrow, the dust will settle."
It snowed all night and stopped in the early morning of the second day, leaving only a thin layer on the ground.
When Ruan Qing went to Yang Qiu's mansion, the thin layer of snow on the street had been swept away, only some remained on the eaves.The blue tiles and white snow are very beautiful.
The air was still cold, but the sun was bright and hot in the sky.
The young shoots that have grown on the trees have become more and more brilliant after being washed by ice and snow, and they are dazzling under the light.
Yang Qiu warmly received Ruan Qing and the two into the mansion.
Accompanied by Yang Qiu's lieutenant general, after sitting down Yang Qiu asked Yang Guhuai's name, Ruan Qing rushed to answer, "This is my subordinate general, surnamed Yang, he is my confidant."
Yang Qiu was secretly happy.
During the banquet, there were staggered toasts and chats about wine.Ruan Qing was careful and heard the slight sound of footsteps outside the house.
When the wine was half full, Yang Qiu saw drunkenness on the faces of Ruan Qing and the two of them, suddenly raised the wine bottle in his hand, and smashed it hard to the ground.
Ruan Qing was always on guard.The wine bottle fell to the ground, and the knives and axes that had been ambushed for a long time rushed in. At the same time, he jumped up, stepped over the desk, took advantage of Yang Qiu's unpreparedness, and dodged behind the opponent, with his arms clamping the opponent's neck, restraining him .
Yang Guhuai raised his hand and overturned the surface of the banquet, and the dishes scattered all over the floor. He jumped up, drew out the long sword at his waist, and fought with the incoming army. For a moment, there was no one within five steps in front of Ruan Qing. people approach.
Ruan Qing pulled out the sharp copper hairpin from her bun, pressed it against Yang Qiu's temple, and shouted, "Who dares to move!"
Seeing the general with the weapon in his hand, he yelled worriedly, "General." Then he shouted, "Stop it all."
When the general gave an order, everyone saw that the general had been captured and stopped their movements one after another. In addition, Yang Guhuai was so strong that he didn't dare to step forward for a while.
Yang Guhuai stood guard in front of Ruan Qing with his sword, his eyes were fierce, and he was at loggerheads with all the knives and axes.
The scene of the banquet, which was originally enjoyable, was instantly full of swords and swords, full of murderous aura, like a bow and arrow being wound, and it was about to fly out the next moment.
Yang Qiu's scalp was numb due to the cold temperature from his temples, and he smiled stiffly with a pale face, "What are you doing, little general?"
"What are you doing?" Ruan Qing sneered, "General Chao Kou might as well explain to me, what exactly are you doing?"
"Oh, misunderstood, misunderstood." Yang Qiu hurriedly smiled stiffly, "This is a scribe under my command. I feared that the general was a spy sent by Ma Chao, so he did this stupid thing. I said why is the general a spy? Misunderstand."
At this moment, Ruan Qing heard a slight sound behind her.He subconsciously mentioned Yang Qiu, and with brute force he dragged the person across the desk in front of him, his robe fluttered in the air in a circle, leaning his back behind Yang Guhuai, blocking Yang Qiu in front of him.
It turned out that it was a knife-axe hand. Taking advantage of Yang Guhuai's nervous tension, Ruan Qing and Yang Qiu answered again, and when they were not paying attention, they walked behind Ruan Qing's back.
Ruan Qing's series of movements were smooth and flowing, as fast as lightning, and when he stood still, the big knife that the swordsman was about to strike at him had already landed on Yang Qiu's vegetable table.
The heavy wooden table broke in half in a few moments, and the dishes on a table fell from the cracks from both sides like a flood.A bamboo chopstick rolled to his feet.
The knife and ax hand rushed to nothing, and the second move came to him.
Ruan Qing looked cold, and lightly touched the bamboo chopsticks with her toes, and the bamboo chopsticks were forcefully rotated and flew into the air.
The arms holding Yang Qiu did not give up, and the hand holding the knife waved.The sent bamboo chopsticks shot towards the axeman at high speed, penetrated the opponent's forehead, and finally firmly fixed on the wall.
A trail of blood trickled down from the wound, and the swordsman took two steps forward and fell to the ground, not feeling angry.
It's Yang Qiu who has been fighting for a long time, seeing this method, he can't help being frightened, his legs and feet are weak, and he is sweating coldly.
"It's all a misunderstanding?" Ruan Qing put the copper hairpin on the side of Yang Qiu's face, and stroked it slowly, as if thinking about where to drop it.
"The throwing cup came out of your hands. Who do you think is a fool?" Ruan Qing said softly, with a little smile, as if she was in a good mood, but when it fell into Yang Qiu's ears, it was like a slap from the king of hell. Even louder, it makes people feel hairy.
"Now the house is surrounded, even if you spread your wings, it will be difficult for you to escape." General Pi watched Ruan Qing's movements closely, and threatened, "Let go of the general, maybe you can spare your life."
Ruan Qing couldn't help laughing out loud when she heard this, Qing Ya's voice was a little more bewitching and soft, which was particularly abrupt at this time.
General Pi frowned, alert in his heart, "What are you laughing at?"
"I'm laughing at you waiting for the fish to swim in the cauldron, still calm, it's really stupid. I'm even laughing at your bluffing words are not at all level." Ruan Qing sarcastically said, "In this situation, with the ax and the ax coming, we can wait for An Neng Can you survive? I'm afraid that if I let your general go, I will lose any protection."
"How did you let the general go?" General Pi asked.
"He wants to kill me, why should I go around him?" Ruan Qing raised her eyelids slightly, with a look of contempt and pride.
After hearing this, Yang Guhuai cursed inwardly whether this person was stupid.No matter how you look at the current situation, they are at a disadvantage, and they still don't know how to restrain themselves in other people's territory.In the past few days, he really saw this person in vain.
Yang Qiu knew that he couldn't hide, so he built up his courage, stiffened his neck, blushed and yelled loudly, "This man is the spy of the enemy army, you don't need to worry about me, come and punish the thief."
General Pi stared fiercely at Ruan Qing with red eyes, but he hesitated to give the order to attack.
The knife and axe behind him were ready to move, and just as he was about to make a move, Yang Guhuai opened his eyes wide and shouted angrily, "I'll see who dares to come and die!"
The courage that everyone finally mustered was suppressed like a cluster of flames.
"It's a bit bloody, but unfortunately, I don't know the master." Ruan Qing sighed leisurely.
Yang Qiu and Pi Jiang felt a thump in their hearts.
"You..." Pi Jiang opened his mouth to say something else, when suddenly there was a commotion outside the room.
General Pi was startled, and turned around to ask, "What's going on in the yard!"
A servant squeezed through the crowd, didn't see clearly what was going on in the house, knelt on the ground and said in panic, "General, general. For some reason, many soldiers came from outside the mansion and forced their way into the mansion."
"You said to surround me, why not take a closer look and see who is surrounded." Ruan Qing sneered.
As soon as he finished speaking, someone in the back row said, "General, the outside of the house is surrounded."
General Pi looked at Ruan Qing in shock and bewilderment.
"Everyone," Ruan Qing said in a loud voice, "Yang Qiu had an affair with Ma Chao, with the intention of plotting against him. Governor Pingxi ordered me to destroy this thief. I know you were bewitched by him. Put down your weapon, and I will spare your life. In the future In front of the Son of Heaven, you only pursued the crime of Yang Qiu alone, and you can still go home and reunite with your parents, wife and children."
As soon as the voice fell, the clanging sound of weapons falling one after another resounded in the room.
Yang Qiu's face was as white as paper, without blood.
Ruan Qing smiled, her expression turned stern for a moment, and the copper hairpin pierced Yang Qiu's temple.
Yang Qiu's eyes widened and he whimpered, his body stiffened.
Ruan Qing let go of her strength, and Yang Qiu fell limply to the ground.
Pi Yu couldn't bear it, and looked away, but there was nothing he could do.
He thought that Cao Qing would at least send Yang Qiu to prison, and then be executed or escorted to Beijing for questioning, so maybe he could do something else.I don't want to be killed on the spot.
Yang Qiu treated him kindly, but he is dead, and he still has parents, wife and children to support.What's more, the general situation is fixed, even if he wants to take revenge, he can't save anything.Moreover, Cao Qing has already said that he only pursues Yang Qiu's crime.Who wants trouble again?
He couldn't help lamenting that this little general was far less immature than he appeared on the surface.
First kill Yang Qiu to prevent future troubles, and then leave a way for everyone to avoid being forced to rebel.
Are all the heirs of the Cao family so resourceful?he thinks.
No wonder Cao Cao was able to coerce the emperor to make the princes stay alive for so many years.It is really not to be underestimated that the family can teach children who are so calculating at this age.
Yang Zhao's pupils constricted, he couldn't believe it, "All?"
"I still want to lend you someone." Ruan Qing said, looking at Yang Guhuai.
Only then did Yang Zhao calm down, "Okay."
Ruan Qing seemed to see through the other party's thoughts, and emphasized again, "Remember, it's all. If one is missing, it's not all."
"Don't worry, Dudu." Yang Zhao said, "Since I chose to go on Dudu's ship, I still have some credit. Dudu will see if I can go on the road tomorrow, let my subordinates prepare first."
"Yes." Ruan Qing smiled again.
"Come here, take the governor down to settle down and take care of him carefully."
Seeing Ruan Qing's figure disappear, the corners of Yang Zhao's mouth that had been raised all the time fell.
"Master." Yang Guhuai said, "You have worked so hard for so many years, do you want to hand it over to others?"
"Don't worry." Yang Zhao stood up and slowly crossed the path, "These voodoo corpses are naturally controlled by you, and Ruan Qing probably knew this before letting you follow. Presumably he was also afraid that he would not be able to control himself and would be caught instead." Devour. You just follow, these voodoo corpses are controlled by him on the surface, but in fact they are your personal soldiers."
After a pause, he continued, "Be careful on this trip, Ruan Qing can still use you and me, and won't do much, but Yang Qiu is not a good friend. If the situation is not right, you must be safe."
"Master, don't worry." Yang Guhuai nodded, "Young man, go down and get ready."
On the second day, led by Yang Zhao, Ruan Qing entered the underground palace again, passed through the secret room, and entered the mountain, only to see an army lined up densely at the mountain pass.Estimated thousands of people.
Ruan Qing's heart beat rapidly several times suddenly, as if the blood was churning and clamoring.
He suppressed the strangeness, knowing that it was a Gu corpse, and the reason for this was that the Gu corpse that had devoured his essence and blood caused trouble when it saw its owner.
He approached and found that these voodoo corpses looked like ordinary people, but their eyes were dull and empty, and their eye sockets were scarlet.If you don't observe carefully, you won't notice the difference.
"Master Yang is so courageous, he has cultivated so many Gu corpses in a few years." Ruan Qing guessed, "It must be two or three thousand."
Yang Zhao said with a smile, "According to the governor's praise, there are a total of [-]."
Ruan Qing was stunned for a moment, then clapped her hands and said, "Master Yang is really capable, but it's amazing that he has developed such military strength in three or four years."
"The governor has a high reputation."
While talking, the two bypassed the army and arrived at the front line, where Yang Guhuai was already waiting.
"Master Yang, please stay." Ruan Qing said, "On the road below, your servants can follow me."
"I wish the governor every success." Yang Zhao said to Yang Guhuai again, "Since you are traveling with the governor, you must pay attention to it. You must put the governor first."
Yang Guhuai cupped his fists, "No."
Ruan Qing and Yang Guhuai got on their horses and drove away.The army of more than a thousand people followed closely behind, with neat steps and uniform movements, no one said anything, and there was something strange that could not be said.
Yang Zhao stood at the entrance of the valley, watching the army leave before returning.
All the way north.
When approaching Linjing City, the team stopped to rectify.
Ruan Qing sat on a rock, quietly looking at the eastern world.Fragments of hair at the temples fluttered in the breeze.
It seems that many years ago when he followed Cao Cao to seek Dong, the winter when he was stationed was also very cold.
But at that time, Xi Zhicai and Cao Cao gathered a lot of clothes for the guards who knew how to sew to make them better for him to wear.
He was often called to Xi Zhicai's tent to help sort out official documents. Xi Zhicai's tent was always full of charcoal fires, without the slightest bit of cold.Cao Cao also always likes to take him out to camp for some wild game, and the wild animals are hidden in winter, but because Cao Cao is experienced, their harvest is always good.
It was a great time...
Ruan Qing closed her eyes in despair.
He had warned himself to forget, but he couldn't control his thoughts when he was free.
It's already out, why do I still remember...
What should he do so that he can completely let go...
After all, Gu worms are living things, and there are inevitably subtle differences. After a long march, it is inevitable that they have to stop and recuperate.
Yang Guhuai lined up the army and saw that Ruan Qing was just sitting alone, but the cold breath around him seemed to be wrapped in thick sorrow.
He walked over and asked, "When Linjing is approaching, how does the governor plan to capture Yang Qiu? Linjing is deep and the city is high. We don't have any siege equipment, so it may be difficult for us to enter the city for a while."
It's not that Ruan Qing can't complete the task, he just feels sorry for the Gu corpse.These Gu corpses were refined by him, and he felt sorry for the death of one.
Ruan Qing opened her eyes, and her eyes became as clear as water again.
"If you don't tell me, I almost forgot that Linjing is approaching." He whispered like he was muttering to himself.Then he raised his hand and snapped his fingers lightly.
Yang Guhuai didn't understand, so Ruan Qing said calmly, "Look behind you."
Turning around, Yang Guhuai's eyes widened, his expression shocked, and he looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief.
I saw that the [-] Gu corpses were all wearing armor, shining brightly in the sun.A general flag embroidered with the word "Cao" is flying in the wind.
"This is illusion."
Ruan Qing's calm voice sounded behind him.
Yang Guhuai suddenly looked at Ruan Qing, his eyes fixed on him.
I saw Ruan Qing lowered her eyes slightly, the pupils were silent, and the brows remained dull.It seemed that no matter what shocking things came to him, they seemed insignificant and would not cause him any emotional ups and downs.
For some reason, Yang Guhuai felt a little scared.
He felt that Ruan Qing might not be acting in their palms as he and Yang Zhao thought.
Just like when Yang Zhao thought Ruan Qing was bound to die but was still alive, this time the [-] Gu corpses came out of Qi County, do they really belong to them?They and Ruan Qing, who is the prey?
The person in front of him always smiles softly, is gentle and polite, looks very easy to rub, but now he feels that this is just a fake skin that the other party is wearing, and what is hidden under this skin, I am afraid it will not Someone wants to know.
Not surprisingly, Yang Qiu was told by his scouts that there was an army coming, and the gates of the city had already been closed.
At the foot of the city, Ruan Qing ordered the army behind him to stop, and he rode his horse to stop by the moat, not afraid of the row of bows and arrows on the wall that were already drawn and would be shot in the next second, shouting at the top of his voice, "I accept, Pingxi The governor, Ruan Qing, sent an order to come here to set up defenses, and quickly open the city gate!"
After getting the news, Yang Qiu hurriedly came from the city, climbed up the city wall, lay on the side of the parapet to see the situation below the city, turned around and retreated to the side of the city tower, and whispered anxiously to the general who came with him, "I didn't hear that before. News, the governor has sent troops over now, does he already know about us..."
"Hey, general." General Pi raised his hand to interrupt Yang Qiu, and said, "Calm down, general, and don't mess yourself up. Ask about the situation first, and if you really want to defend the city, let them in and slowly move forward." If you really want to kill us, Linjing water is deep and the city is high, and he can't take it for a while, so you can quickly send someone to Ma Chao for help."
Yang Qiu nodded in agreement, and came to the female wall again.
The north was dry, and Ruan Qing's throat was a little dry. He pinched his waist with one hand and tapped his thigh with the riding whip held by the other hand.He tilted his head and squinted.
A head protruded from the city, wearing a high crown, presumably it must have an official position.
He just heard the other party shouting at him, "There was no document before, but today Ma Chao is rebelling, lest some thieves will steal the city, do you have an official document?"
"Yes." Ruan Qing howled again, took out a sealed bamboo tube from behind the heart armor, and raised her hand.
Yang Qiu sent someone to fetch it.
The suspension bridge was slowly lowered, making an overwhelmed creaking sound.
A young general riding a horse came to Ruan Qing's side on the suspension bridge, took the letter and hurried back.The drawbridge was pulled up again.
Seeing that the other party was so careful, Ruan Qing couldn't help but sneered.
The documents are of course real.He was asked to hold the white silk that was stamped first and then added the words.He himself is the governor of Pingxi, how can this document be fake?If it's true or false, then it's Yang Qiu who is talking nonsense with open eyes.
Yang Qiu looked it over quickly, but couldn't tell if it was true or false.
The general at the side said, "Since he dared to send the document, it seems to be true. It is better to let him into the city first, and then get rid of him, lest he go back and report to the governor of Pingxi and ruin the general's affairs."
Yang Qiu nodded.
"General." The assistant general said again, "It can be said that there is no safe place for soldiers in the city, so let him station the soldiers outside the city, and only allow him to enter the city alone. The generals will be eliminated. These soldiers, aren't they all for the general's use?"
The suspension bridge was lowered again, and the gates of Gao'e opened wide.
One came on horseback, followed by two or three.
In front of Ruan Qing, the visitor cupped his hands and said, "Marquis of Linjing, General Yang Qiu, General Cao Qing, welcomes General Cao Qing into the city."
"Thank you." Ruan Qing looked at the other party and smiled, raising his whip with his hand.
He was about to move forward, but was stopped by Yang Qiu.
"General Cao Qing wait a moment."
Ruan Qing looked at Yang Qiu inexplicably, "What's wrong?"
Yang Qiu explained with a sneer, "Well... there is no place to garrison troops in the school grounds in the city, and the general has to camp outside the city. Oh, the general can go into the city with Qiu, and the soldiers outside the city will be rewarded by Qiu Ding with drinks and meat. "
Ruan Qing raised her eyebrows, looked back at her soldiers, pointed with a horsewhip, and then tapped her chest, "What do you mean, you want to separate me from my soldiers?"
Yang Qiu supported Ruan Qing's questioning, and nodded with an apologetic smile.
"Ha." Ruan Qing was amused, he took a deep breath, blinked, "A general, if he doesn't have soldiers in his hands, what's the point? There's no place in the city, right? It's easy to do without a place."
Ruan Qing casually pointed to the city, "Call out your soldiers. I have worked so hard to lead my soldiers away for so long, but it's not because of you that I'm closed. Okay. That’s good, I, Marquis Fanyang, General Pingxi, let’s write my position in the official document. From the perspective of hospitality, you have to invite me in, and from the perspective of official position, you have to listen to me.”
Ruan Qing's title is Marquis of Liyang Ting, which is thousands of miles away from Marquis of Liyang, but he got it more than ten years ago, and he went to other places in these years. Few people can remember, let alone This Yang Qiu who had been in Xiliang for a few years had just surrendered to Cao Cao.
Anyway, Ruan Qing was not afraid of being picked on at all.As long as he has enough momentum and pretends to be like him, the fake is also true.
This man is in debt.
"General." Yang Qiu wondered, "there is really no place in the city. The soldiers in the city have already been familiar with the situation in the city, and they each perform their duties. How can they be changed at will? You, you don't have to make it difficult for you to be an official."
"I don't dare to make things difficult for you." Ruan Qing sneered, "Obviously you have to make things difficult for me. Anyway, I, Ben Hou, this general, will never be separated from my soldiers. I came here on orders from thousands of miles away. Since you are determined not to let me enter this door, then General Ben has no choice but to go back and report the matter here to the governor. Don’t worry, this general is the most honest and will never add fuel to the cake.”
"Boys!" Ruan Qing raised his whip.
Yang Qiu opened his mouth and was about to explain something, when a person behind him spoke up.
"It's because I didn't do my job properly." The man rode forward.Yang Qiu saw clearly that he was a general.
General Pi smiled and said, "The general has worked hard all the way, so it would be inappropriate not to invite you into the city. In the school grounds in the city, there is still room for you to squeeze in. General, please come in."
"Look, you are still sensible, I remember you." Ruan Qing raised the corners of his lips, and did not let go of his raised hand. He continued the words just now and shouted, "Marquis of Linjing, general who seeks bandits, Yang Qiu, Welcome to the city."
Then he drove the horse forward, with a straight body and bright red tassels on his head, like a high-spirited and arrogant general.
The army behind them walked across the suspension bridge one by one and entered the city.
Yang Qiu watched the sergeants rushing in, his face was not very good, and the general at the side held his arm.
He looked over and saw that General Pi shook his head slightly, signaling him to stay calm.
After entering the city, General Nabi led them to settle everything.He also led Ruan Qing to stay in the post house.Just retreated.
After leaving the post house, he came to the mansion to see Yang Qiu.
At this moment, Yang Qiu was sullen, apparently in a bad mood. Seeing that General Pi came in, he waved back the servants and asked, "You just said that you want to separate him from the army, why did you say that you allowed the army to enter the city again? Could it be that you really want to curry favor with General Pingxi?" ? So that you can climb another branch?"
"I don't dare." General Pi hurriedly knelt down and confessed his loyalty, "The general saved his life, how dare he betray the general? The reason why he was let into the city was to keep Cao Qing safe and prevent the incident from spreading to Pingxi University. The governor's office ruined the general's plan, so he didn't discuss with the general and led the army into the city."
After hearing the explanation, Yang Qiu's expression gradually softened, he looked at the lieutenant general kneeling on the ground, and said, "Get up."
"Thank you, General."
"Now that Cao Qing has led an army into the city, what should we do?" Yang Qiu asked.
"This is easy." General Pi said, "The general can go to the post house to apologize for today's incident, ask the reason, and understand the other party's plan. Then set a time and invite the other party to lead a few generals who are actually in charge. When you are a guest in the mansion, at the banquet, the wine is half drunk, and when the other party is unprepared, throw the cup as a sign, so that the ambush knives will hack him to death. As for the troops stationed in the city, they can take Our army secretly controls and monitors, in case the other party comes to rescue if suspicious."
Ruan Qing really couldn't stand Liangzhou's climate, even if she lived there for two years.
His dry throat hurts, and the inside of his nasal cavity, where the broken capillaries are broken, is scabbed, and it hurts even a little movement.
He didn't dare to mobilize the aura in Yuanling to nourish his body.He found that since meeting the Gu corpse army, the yin energy in his body was rampant and uncontrollable, so he could only try his best to adjust his breath to suppress it.
At this moment, the yin energy in his body was agitated again, disturbing his mind, he could only calm down patiently, when he calmed down, someone was watching his door.
Sighing secretly, he patted his cheek, found the feeling of presumptuous arrogance, and got up to open the door.
The gatekeeper saw Yang Qiu's old face.
He jokingly said, "Marquis of Linjing, what's the matter with General Kou?"
Yang Qiu's smiling face was almost unstoppable for a while.
Knowing that you have a high official position, you don't have to step on other people's weaknesses all the time.Why did Governor Pingxi send such an idiot over here?
Cursing in his heart, Yang Qiu's expression of remorse became more and more real, he said, "Today is Qiu Wuzhi, who has chilled the hearts of soldiers who came here from afar, and made General Cao unhappy, so Qiu Te came to make amends."
Reach out and don't hit the smiling face.Ruan Qing looked Yang Qiu up and down, turned sideways, and said, "It's cold outside, come in and tell me."
Yang Qiucheng was terrified.
After entering the room and sitting down, Yang Qiu said, "The general's living here is quite comfortable. If you have any dissatisfaction, you must bring it up, and Qiu will send someone to arrange it."
"That's it." Ruan Qing snorted softly, "Naturally, the bitter cold place can't compare to Yecheng in Xuchang. Let's make a living. If my uncle didn't let me out, I wouldn't bother to come here."
The surname is Cao, and it was arranged by the family. Yang Qiu's mind became active, and he guessed that Ruan Qing should be a junior in the same clan as Cao Cao, and was forced by the family to come out to practice.
Yang Qiu said cautiously, "Yes, yes, yes. In winter in Xiliang, it is much colder than other states and counties. Even the current cold spring is not insignificant. It is difficult for the little general to suffer here. Qiu Ding arranged for his servants to prepare bedding The charcoal fire will not let the little general suffer from the cold."
Satisfied, Ruan Qing narrowed her eyes slightly, "It's more or less the same."
"That..." Yang Qiu saw that Ruan Qing was in a good mood at the moment, so he spoke carefully, "I don't know why the governor asked the little general to defend this place."
"It's not that thief Ma Chao." Ruan Qing frowned and complained, "The chief inspector carefully reported that Ma Chao wanted the army to fight our army in Ji County, and sent another surprise army to go around Hanyang County to Linjing, so that they could go south and take Chang'an directly. After cutting off our army's way back, we attacked twice. The governor sent me here."
Yang Qiu lowered his head slightly, his eyes rolling.
I see……
"General." Yang Qiu said, "I will set up a banquet in the private mansion tomorrow. One is to apologize to the general, and the other is to clean up the dust with my colleagues. I also hope that the general will not be disgusted. Let me save some face and lead the generals and colleagues to come forward." Come, so that we can get to know each other well and fight the enemy side by side."
coming……
Ruan Qing understood in his heart, he said, "Since you are so caring, I can't refuse. Don't worry, I will definitely go tomorrow."
"Then I won't disturb the general's rest." Yang Qiu stood up and said, "Let me go. A servant will add carbon to the general after a while."
Ruan Qing was sitting loosely, with one leg curled up on the ground, one leg propped up in a circle, one arm resting on her knee, her body slightly tilted, a typical sitting posture favored by celebrities of aristocratic families.
He didn't get up either, and looked up at Yang Qiu with a smile.After Yang Qiu finished speaking, he waved lazily, "Back, back."
Yang Qiu exited the room, and the moment the door closed, the smile on Ruan Qing's face quickly collapsed.It was as cold as ice.
After a while, the door was knocked again.
Ruan Qing dragged out a long tune and lazily called out, "Come in."
The door was opened, wrapped in a gust of cold wind, and fine white scrambling to drift in.
"Is it snowing outside?" Ruan Qing asked another gossip.
It was Yang Guhuai who came, and while closing the door, he answered in a low voice, "It's not long after the first visit."
Is the downturn in Xiliang so severe... Ruan Qing thought.
Yang Guhuai walked up to him to salute, and said, "The army has made arrangements. As the general said, Yang Qiu sent people to spy on him."
Ruan Qing was lying cross-legged on the bed with a helmet between her legs, and Bai Jie's index finger was wrapped around the red tassel.
"Don't worry about him, you just need to keep the Gu zombies from showing their flaws."
Yang Guhuai nodded, "Don't worry, General."
"You have to go to Yang Qiu's mansion with me tomorrow for a banquet."
Yang Guhuai frowned slightly, "Yang Qiu invited me and the general to the mansion, I'm afraid the banquet will not be a good one, but a Hongmen banquet."
"What?" Ruan Qing smiled, and looked sideways at Yang Guhuai, "Don't you dare?"
"The general misunderstood." Yang Guhuai hurriedly said, "The master said that the villain should obey the general's arrangements. The villain is only worried about the general's safety."
Ruan Qing laughed lightly and remained silent.
Yang Guhuai said again, "General, tomorrow you and I will go to the banquet together, what about the affairs in the army?"
"You don't have to worry about it, just keep the Gu corpse safe and sound, and don't make trouble." Ruan Qing raised her eyebrows, caressing the pattern on the helmet, and sighed, "Tomorrow, the dust will settle."
It snowed all night and stopped in the early morning of the second day, leaving only a thin layer on the ground.
When Ruan Qing went to Yang Qiu's mansion, the thin layer of snow on the street had been swept away, only some remained on the eaves.The blue tiles and white snow are very beautiful.
The air was still cold, but the sun was bright and hot in the sky.
The young shoots that have grown on the trees have become more and more brilliant after being washed by ice and snow, and they are dazzling under the light.
Yang Qiu warmly received Ruan Qing and the two into the mansion.
Accompanied by Yang Qiu's lieutenant general, after sitting down Yang Qiu asked Yang Guhuai's name, Ruan Qing rushed to answer, "This is my subordinate general, surnamed Yang, he is my confidant."
Yang Qiu was secretly happy.
During the banquet, there were staggered toasts and chats about wine.Ruan Qing was careful and heard the slight sound of footsteps outside the house.
When the wine was half full, Yang Qiu saw drunkenness on the faces of Ruan Qing and the two of them, suddenly raised the wine bottle in his hand, and smashed it hard to the ground.
Ruan Qing was always on guard.The wine bottle fell to the ground, and the knives and axes that had been ambushed for a long time rushed in. At the same time, he jumped up, stepped over the desk, took advantage of Yang Qiu's unpreparedness, and dodged behind the opponent, with his arms clamping the opponent's neck, restraining him .
Yang Guhuai raised his hand and overturned the surface of the banquet, and the dishes scattered all over the floor. He jumped up, drew out the long sword at his waist, and fought with the incoming army. For a moment, there was no one within five steps in front of Ruan Qing. people approach.
Ruan Qing pulled out the sharp copper hairpin from her bun, pressed it against Yang Qiu's temple, and shouted, "Who dares to move!"
Seeing the general with the weapon in his hand, he yelled worriedly, "General." Then he shouted, "Stop it all."
When the general gave an order, everyone saw that the general had been captured and stopped their movements one after another. In addition, Yang Guhuai was so strong that he didn't dare to step forward for a while.
Yang Guhuai stood guard in front of Ruan Qing with his sword, his eyes were fierce, and he was at loggerheads with all the knives and axes.
The scene of the banquet, which was originally enjoyable, was instantly full of swords and swords, full of murderous aura, like a bow and arrow being wound, and it was about to fly out the next moment.
Yang Qiu's scalp was numb due to the cold temperature from his temples, and he smiled stiffly with a pale face, "What are you doing, little general?"
"What are you doing?" Ruan Qing sneered, "General Chao Kou might as well explain to me, what exactly are you doing?"
"Oh, misunderstood, misunderstood." Yang Qiu hurriedly smiled stiffly, "This is a scribe under my command. I feared that the general was a spy sent by Ma Chao, so he did this stupid thing. I said why is the general a spy? Misunderstand."
At this moment, Ruan Qing heard a slight sound behind her.He subconsciously mentioned Yang Qiu, and with brute force he dragged the person across the desk in front of him, his robe fluttered in the air in a circle, leaning his back behind Yang Guhuai, blocking Yang Qiu in front of him.
It turned out that it was a knife-axe hand. Taking advantage of Yang Guhuai's nervous tension, Ruan Qing and Yang Qiu answered again, and when they were not paying attention, they walked behind Ruan Qing's back.
Ruan Qing's series of movements were smooth and flowing, as fast as lightning, and when he stood still, the big knife that the swordsman was about to strike at him had already landed on Yang Qiu's vegetable table.
The heavy wooden table broke in half in a few moments, and the dishes on a table fell from the cracks from both sides like a flood.A bamboo chopstick rolled to his feet.
The knife and ax hand rushed to nothing, and the second move came to him.
Ruan Qing looked cold, and lightly touched the bamboo chopsticks with her toes, and the bamboo chopsticks were forcefully rotated and flew into the air.
The arms holding Yang Qiu did not give up, and the hand holding the knife waved.The sent bamboo chopsticks shot towards the axeman at high speed, penetrated the opponent's forehead, and finally firmly fixed on the wall.
A trail of blood trickled down from the wound, and the swordsman took two steps forward and fell to the ground, not feeling angry.
It's Yang Qiu who has been fighting for a long time, seeing this method, he can't help being frightened, his legs and feet are weak, and he is sweating coldly.
"It's all a misunderstanding?" Ruan Qing put the copper hairpin on the side of Yang Qiu's face, and stroked it slowly, as if thinking about where to drop it.
"The throwing cup came out of your hands. Who do you think is a fool?" Ruan Qing said softly, with a little smile, as if she was in a good mood, but when it fell into Yang Qiu's ears, it was like a slap from the king of hell. Even louder, it makes people feel hairy.
"Now the house is surrounded, even if you spread your wings, it will be difficult for you to escape." General Pi watched Ruan Qing's movements closely, and threatened, "Let go of the general, maybe you can spare your life."
Ruan Qing couldn't help laughing out loud when she heard this, Qing Ya's voice was a little more bewitching and soft, which was particularly abrupt at this time.
General Pi frowned, alert in his heart, "What are you laughing at?"
"I'm laughing at you waiting for the fish to swim in the cauldron, still calm, it's really stupid. I'm even laughing at your bluffing words are not at all level." Ruan Qing sarcastically said, "In this situation, with the ax and the ax coming, we can wait for An Neng Can you survive? I'm afraid that if I let your general go, I will lose any protection."
"How did you let the general go?" General Pi asked.
"He wants to kill me, why should I go around him?" Ruan Qing raised her eyelids slightly, with a look of contempt and pride.
After hearing this, Yang Guhuai cursed inwardly whether this person was stupid.No matter how you look at the current situation, they are at a disadvantage, and they still don't know how to restrain themselves in other people's territory.In the past few days, he really saw this person in vain.
Yang Qiu knew that he couldn't hide, so he built up his courage, stiffened his neck, blushed and yelled loudly, "This man is the spy of the enemy army, you don't need to worry about me, come and punish the thief."
General Pi stared fiercely at Ruan Qing with red eyes, but he hesitated to give the order to attack.
The knife and axe behind him were ready to move, and just as he was about to make a move, Yang Guhuai opened his eyes wide and shouted angrily, "I'll see who dares to come and die!"
The courage that everyone finally mustered was suppressed like a cluster of flames.
"It's a bit bloody, but unfortunately, I don't know the master." Ruan Qing sighed leisurely.
Yang Qiu and Pi Jiang felt a thump in their hearts.
"You..." Pi Jiang opened his mouth to say something else, when suddenly there was a commotion outside the room.
General Pi was startled, and turned around to ask, "What's going on in the yard!"
A servant squeezed through the crowd, didn't see clearly what was going on in the house, knelt on the ground and said in panic, "General, general. For some reason, many soldiers came from outside the mansion and forced their way into the mansion."
"You said to surround me, why not take a closer look and see who is surrounded." Ruan Qing sneered.
As soon as he finished speaking, someone in the back row said, "General, the outside of the house is surrounded."
General Pi looked at Ruan Qing in shock and bewilderment.
"Everyone," Ruan Qing said in a loud voice, "Yang Qiu had an affair with Ma Chao, with the intention of plotting against him. Governor Pingxi ordered me to destroy this thief. I know you were bewitched by him. Put down your weapon, and I will spare your life. In the future In front of the Son of Heaven, you only pursued the crime of Yang Qiu alone, and you can still go home and reunite with your parents, wife and children."
As soon as the voice fell, the clanging sound of weapons falling one after another resounded in the room.
Yang Qiu's face was as white as paper, without blood.
Ruan Qing smiled, her expression turned stern for a moment, and the copper hairpin pierced Yang Qiu's temple.
Yang Qiu's eyes widened and he whimpered, his body stiffened.
Ruan Qing let go of her strength, and Yang Qiu fell limply to the ground.
Pi Yu couldn't bear it, and looked away, but there was nothing he could do.
He thought that Cao Qing would at least send Yang Qiu to prison, and then be executed or escorted to Beijing for questioning, so maybe he could do something else.I don't want to be killed on the spot.
Yang Qiu treated him kindly, but he is dead, and he still has parents, wife and children to support.What's more, the general situation is fixed, even if he wants to take revenge, he can't save anything.Moreover, Cao Qing has already said that he only pursues Yang Qiu's crime.Who wants trouble again?
He couldn't help lamenting that this little general was far less immature than he appeared on the surface.
First kill Yang Qiu to prevent future troubles, and then leave a way for everyone to avoid being forced to rebel.
Are all the heirs of the Cao family so resourceful?he thinks.
No wonder Cao Cao was able to coerce the emperor to make the princes stay alive for so many years.It is really not to be underestimated that the family can teach children who are so calculating at this age.
