where to go home

Chapter 2 Assassination

?At dusk, Yunze led his pony and walked aimlessly on Tiance Racecourse. While walking, he seemed to be talking to the horse, and occasionally smoothed the horse's mane.This horse, Yunze, is only five months old. Its maroon fur looks particularly shiny in the sun, and it runs like an arrow from the string. Anyone who sees it is so beautiful that he wants to touch it.The name of this horse is Lie Shan, and he and Yunlan ran to the outskirts of Luoyang to rescue it and raise it. It is a treasure. Even if his most respected and beloved senior sister wants to go up and ride a few times, he will follow behind, making a move that is bound to be with Lie. The posture of the mountain coexisting and dying made Yang Xiao helpless and never dared to ride his horse again.

At this time, Yunze was sitting on the grass with his face upturned, having a serious and earnest conversation with his best "friend" Lie Shan.

"Li Shan, do you think Shu'er is getting more and more beautiful? I think he is much more beautiful now than when he was a child."

"..." Lie Shan ignored him and lowered his head to eat grass.

"Lie Shan, do you think that if he becomes an embroidery master in the future, many people will come to her to sew clothes? At that time, maybe some people will think that she is kind, skilled, and beautiful, and propose marriage to her... "

"..." Lie Shan continued to ignore him, and lowered his head to eat, why does the grass have a sour taste at this moment.

"Li Shan, although Shu'er always scolds me, she really cares about me. I want to marry him and take care of her for the rest of my life. What do you think?"

"...!" Lie Shan was finally willing to leave Xiancao and raised his head to look at Yunze, his eyes showed the contempt that you like it and ask me what I do.

"Wow, what kind of expression do you have..." Yunze glanced at Lie Shan dissatisfied, held the horse grass in front of it, and said, "I don't know if Master is willing to hand over Shu'er to me...how about me this time?" Taking advantage of the master's birthday, to test the meaning of the master? What do you think?"

"..." Lie Shan opened his mouth and ate the horse grass in Yunze's hand, and nodded his head—you can do whatever you want.

"Good brother! Come on, let's go now!" Yun Ze quickly climbed onto the horse, patted Lie Shan, who was so irritable that I didn't eat enough, and ran to Zheng Feng's residence.

Before reaching the door, he saw Yang Xiao coming on horseback, Yunze hurriedly waved and shouted: "Senior sister, senior sister! Where are you going?"

Yang Xiao had seen him a long time ago, and rode over, "Junior Brother, I was just going to find you. Tomorrow is Master's birthday, and I want to go to Luoyang City with you to pick up congratulatory gifts."

Qin Yunze patted his head violently, "Oh, I was just thinking about Zheng Shu'er, and almost forgot to buy a gift!" He quickly turned his horse's head and said, "Okay, senior sister, let's go down the mountain to Luoyang City together!"

Yang Xiao walked with him, teasing Yun Ze, "Eh? What were you thinking about Shu'er just now?"

Yunze's face tensed up nervously, and he said falteringly: "No, no, I didn't think about her, it's just... it's my father who asked me to deliver a new pack of tea to Master!"

"Oh? So that's the case." Yang Xiao asked slowly, "Then where is your new tea?"

Seeing that the lie was exposed, Yunze lowered his head helplessly, "Oh, Senior Sister knows everything, so don't make fun of me."

"Haha, there's no need to make fun of it." Yang Xiaodao, "Junior Brother, don't panic, I think you and Shu'er are a good match, if you really like her, I will definitely help you."

"Senior Sister is a good person! I'll pay [-]% of the silver for you to buy gifts later!" After speaking, Yunze was hit hard on the head by Yang Xiao with the butt of a gun... After that, the two of them rode their horses towards Luoyang.

In a blink of an eye, it was already dark, and the night wind was chilly. I only heard the rustling sound coming from the forest. At first I thought it was the night wind blowing the leaves, but when I looked carefully, I found that there seemed to be a tree in the forest. The black shadow quickly passed by.

"Listen, let's ask where the evidence is first. If you don't obey, you will be killed without mercy." The leader was very good at lightness kungfu, and he didn't forget to turn his head and tell his subordinates during the journey.

I saw this group of men in black passing through the woods and landed behind a house to hide.The light in the house was still on, and from the shadow of the window, one could vaguely tell that it was a woman holding a bamboo frame and embroidering something - the hiding place of this group of men in black was exactly behind Zheng Shu'er's house - it was Zheng Feng's house!The leader signaled his subordinates with his eyes, and sneaked into the house.

Zheng Shu'er was lighting a lamp to embroider a purse pattern.A few days ago, she was playing with Qin Yunze, and she forgot why she got angry and accidentally tore Yunze's purse. Thinking of sewing a new one and returning it to Yunze.

Looking at the ink bamboo that was about to be embroidered, Zheng Shu'er said to herself angrily: "Boy Qin, I don't want to apologize, it's all your fault..." After speaking, she started to embroider again, "Look at your purse It's not pleasing to the eye... Only the ones embroidered by this lady are worthy of you."

She obviously has the thoughts of a little girl, but she is not forgiving, she always has the upper hand to be happy, and she didn't notice the slight smile on her lips.

While she was embroidering the last few stitches, Shu'er was startled by a loud noise, and when she turned her head, she saw several men in black breaking into the door with long knives in their hands.

"Who are you!" Zheng Shu'er hugged the bamboo frame with one hand, touched the dagger by the bed with the other and shouted out of the window in horror: "Father! Father! Help me——"

I saw one of them jumped to Shu'er's side, quickly grasped his right hand that was about to reach for the dagger, and exerted a sudden force-only heard a "click", Shu'er screamed, cold sweat and tears flowed down together, she Knowing clearly that her hand had been broken by the person in front of her, the severe pain made her forget to struggle, and she was thrown to the ground by the enemy to hold her down in a blink of an eye.

"Is that Zheng Shu'er?" The leading man in black didn't say this in a questioning tone.

"You... you... who the hell..." Zheng Shu'er was about to faint from the pain, and could only speak intermittently.

"Do you know what precious things Zheng Feng has?" The man didn't answer Zheng Shu'er's words, but asked another question that made her unclear.

"Uh, what... what... who are you..." Shu'er tried hard not to make a sound.

"Where does he keep his important things?" It was still that indifferent voice.

"I...I don't know..." Zheng Shuer tried hard to stay awake, "I don't know anything...!"

"That's it... take him away." The leader said to the man in black next to him.The man nodded, lifted Zheng Shu'er up and followed the leader to the next door.Zheng Shu'er opened her eyes dimly, and after seeing the scene in the house clearly, she immediately woke up in shock.Tears welled up, and she yelled at the leading man in black almost desperately: "What the hell are you doing!!!"

The room was filled with the smell of blood. This was the bedroom of Zheng Feng and his wife. As usual, the two of them were still chatting and drinking tea, and nothing had happened - except for Zheng Feng who was bound and bruised all over his body, and his wife who was lying in a pool of blood and had no breath.

"Zheng Feng, your daughter is here. Whether she can live or not depends on you." The leading man in black nimbly avoided the blood that hadn't dried up on the ground and sat down on the chair.

"Father! What's wrong with mother!? Mother—" Shu'er was dragged to the ground, desperately calling for mother, but no one responded to her, "Why did you kill my mother!"

"You let her go, Shu'er doesn't know anything!" Zheng Feng's already ashen face suddenly became agitated after seeing Zheng Shu'er.

"He doesn't know. But you know." The man picked up the cup and sipped the tea, and said slowly.

"Those letters are not in my house!"

"Oh? Really?" Putting down the teacup, he walked towards Zheng Shu'er, drew out the knife and was about to put it on her neck.

"stop!!"

"father--"

"What? What is Deputy General Zheng thinking of?" The man wore a half-face mask and looked at Zheng Feng with a smile, contemptuous and arrogant.

"..." Zheng Feng was hesitating, he was afraid, he had never been afraid before.He once said that he was willing to protect the country with his life and be loyal, but he could not and was not qualified to sacrifice his daughter to keep his promise.

"Father..." Zheng Shuer's tears could no longer stop, she could feel her father's hesitation, the sharp blade was on her neck, she even felt the coldness from the blade eroding her skin, Pain and despair are branded deep in her heart - she is also afraid.

"Okay...I'll tell you, but you have to let my daughter go first." Zheng Feng stared intently at the eyes under the leader's mask.

"Of course." The man still had a smile on his lips.

"... It's... It's in the brocade box under my cabinet..." Zheng Feng said these words almost through gritted teeth, and now he only wants to keep his daughter safe.

"Oh, thank you." He raised the knife lightly as he spoke.

Just when Zheng Feng was about to breathe a sigh of relief, the man in black suddenly turned the knife over with his backhand and held it again, with the blade down, he slashed at Zheng Shu'er's throat!

"Ah——!" Blood was splashed everywhere in an instant, Zheng Shu'er wanted to hold down the gushing blood with her uninjured left hand, but she suddenly found that her left hand was still tightly clutching the black bamboo embroidered for Yunze, which was almost the last few stitches.She seems to have heard the wind... Where did the wind come from... Is it mother... or... Yunze...

"Shu'er!!" Zheng Feng yelled for Shu'er, but he could only watch as Shu'er slowly fell to the ground, holding the piece of bamboo tightly in his arms, and there was nothing left. sound……

Faced with the tragedy of his wife and daughter's death, Zheng Feng had already collapsed. Having never cried before, he was not stingy with his man's tears—he even forgot to ask the leader why he crossed the river and demolished the bridge.

At this time, a man in black found the brocade box from under the cabinet and delivered it to the leader.Opening the brocade box, the leader smiled inexplicably, "It seems that I was right to kill her." He turned the brocade box over to face Zheng Feng, only to see that the brocade box was empty.

"You kill me..." Zheng Feng seemed to have been drained of strength, sitting there stiffly, his eyes were empty.

"As expected of the Tiance Army, they have more backbone than the Shence gang. Do you know? When they went to rob supplies, they begged me on their knees, but I didn't let them live. But now you beg me to die, I will But I only want you to live." This was the first time the leader said such a long sentence.

"So it's you...you want me to live, but I don't want to live..." Zheng Feng smiled wryly, looking at Zheng Shu'er's body.The leader rummaged through the brocade box to see if there was any mechanism, and didn't bother to pay attention to him.Unexpectedly, Zheng Feng exhausted his last strength and stood up and rushed out. The speed was so fast that before the surrounding men in black could react, he hit the wall with all his might!

"Brother Yang... I'm sorry for you..." These were the last words of this Tiance lieutenant general with great military exploits before he died.

The moment he fell down, the leader was startled and angry, and shouted at his subordinates: "What are you doing in a daze? Hurry up and save people!"

"Boss...he's dead." One person sniffed Zheng Feng and replied.

"..." The leader stared at Zheng Feng's body in silence for a long time, sighed softly, and then resumed his serious tone: "Listen, burn all these rooms to me, if there is any scrap of paper left... You know the consequences."

"As ordered—"

"Boom!" The leader heard the sound of something heavy falling outside the door.

"who?!"

Pushing the door open, I saw an eleven or twelve-year-old girl fell to the ground outside, holding a scroll in her hand, with loose hair but wearing a cute and delicate headdress.The girl is wearing a light pink dress like cherry blossoms, which makes her cute even more.But the little girl with such a cute appearance opened her eyes wide in horror, and she didn't dare to move in front of the man in black!She trembled nervously, grasping the corner of her clothes tightly - it was Qin Yunlan who came to Zheng's house to wait for Yang Xiaoyunze in Xushi.
