Section 293 Borrowing a knife to kill(1/2)
Xiao Buyi left the mountain. He frowned slightly along the way, unable to hide his shock.
Of course the old woman could not see Xiao Buyi's soles. Xiao Buyi knew it very well.
When he saw the three red moles on the sole of Wen Yuzhou's foot, he was really shocked. It was just that his experience over the past few years made him mature too much. Not to mention seeing three red moles on the sole of his foot, even if the other party cut his head, his face would not change. Therefore, the old woman wanted to see clues on his face.
Xiao Bunong was right away, but he knew that there were indeed three red moles on the soles of his feet. It was normal to have moles on the soles of his feet, so he never cared about it. He never thought that he would have something to do with the Yuwen family in the Northern Zhou Dynasty?
Looking back on the years he spent with Xiao Dapeng, he didn't mention his wife at all. It was a bit strange. He also thought of the old woman saying that the daughter princess had three sisters, and the third one was wandering among the people. Xiao Buyi sighed secretly. He was a bandit son, but he never dreamed that Xiao Dapeng was also secretly hidden. At this time, he wanted to go to Yangzhou to find Xiao Dapeng immediately. Ask who his biological mother was, to solve the mystery, he refused the old woman.
There are many reasons for recognizing relatives. The first is that it is impossible to be sure, and the second is that it is understood that the Northern Zhou Dynasty has long been unpopular. It is forgotten by the gentry. If the Northern Zhou Dynasty is under the banner, it is afraid that the gain will not be worth the loss. The most critical point is that the soldiers on the grassland cannot be borrowed, otherwise the tiger will be left with troubles. Of course, there is another point. Although Guanlong is a place where many monarchs send troops, he has no foundation at all. Working with the old woman and listening to her fingers, the harm is more than good. Therefore, he will not take it.
Of course, after hearing the old woman talk about the daughter of the daughter, if the third sister is really his mother, the old woman is his aunt at the moment, she cannot turn against her face. Although Xiao Buyi thinks that the old woman has a little temper, she is still respectful.
Before we could reach the Meng Chen tribe, we saw a horse galloping towards us. It was Meng Chen Xue.
Xiao Buyi was a little surprised, "Xue'er. What's wrong?"
Meng Chenxue had a slightly strange look on her face and raised a letter and said, "Buyi, I have been waiting for you here. There are urgent letters in Xiangyang!"
Xiao Buyi frowned slightly, took the letter, opened his eyes, and murmured: "Someone can't bear it anymore and started to make a decision on Jiangxia. Xu Shiji asked me for my opinion. Is it better to start first?"
Meng Chenxue bit her red lips lightly, "Buyi. In any case, I think you should go back to Xiangyang immediately. Don't delay any more. There will be no major problems here in the grassland for the time being."
Although she was a little reluctant, her will was firm. Xiao Buyi sighed softly. "Xue'er, thank you for your hard work."
Meng Chenxue smiled and said, "Bullyi, you are saying this. No matter how hard you are, it is worth it. By the way, if you meet Sister Pei and Sister Qiaoxi, say hello to me, and you must take care of yourself. I cannot be by your side. Only on the grassland can you help you the greatest possible help. The world is peaceful. We can never separate again. We just hope that day will come soon."
Xiao Buyi's eyes showed emotion. He looked at the white clouds in the sky and murmured: "When will the world be peaceful?"
When Wang Rengong woke up, he felt that the world was still peaceful.
In recent days, the Turkic soldiers came to harass each other a lot less often, which made Wang Rengong a little overjoyed.
He is old and has long lost the courage he used to be. He just wants to live safely and enjoy his life. He is in the border area. It is a day to live.
But in recent days, he has lived quite comfortably. Looking at a young woman under the quilt beside him. Wang Rengong felt that he was not old yet, and at least he still had desires. He suddenly realized that he had been a little stupid in his past struggles and was a little late to enjoy his life.
He is still lying in Tianxiangfang. The sun shines through the gauze window, and the room is full of spring. He only hopes that the Turkic soldiers will not come today, so no one will disturb him...
While thinking, I suddenly smelled a riot outside. A soldier said anxiously: "Person Liu, Lord Wang, is still resting, you can't go in."
However, Liu Wuzhou's voice came in, "I have something important to say to Lord Wang, get out of here."
Wang Rengong frowned, feeling that Liu Wuzhou's tone was not kind and was dissatisfied. Originally, the women around him were all prepared for him, and I wonder what he was asking for him today?
Without waiting for the order, the door of the room was knocked open with a "bang". Liu Wuzhou walked in first, followed by more than a dozen subordinates.
The woman on Wang Rengong's bed screamed. She grabbed the embroidered quilt tightly, full of fear. Wang Rengong said angrily: "Liu Wuzhou, what are you going to do?"
He sat barefoot in his nightgown and sat barefoot in front of the bed. His majesty was not diminished. Liu Wuzhou's face disappeared without respect and smile, and he said seriously: "Wu Zhou asked the prefect to open the warehouse and release the grain."
Wang Rengong said angrily: "Liu Wuzhou, what are you going to do? Do you want to rebel?"
Liu Wuzhou sighed lightly. "Now the people are hungry and corpses are everywhere. The prefect still refuses to open the warehouse and release grain, which has led to countless people starving to death in Mayi County. Is this what parents should do?"
Wang Rengong was angry, "Do you know who you are talking to? Liu Wuzhou, do you know that based on what you said today. If I were to be a banquet for the emperor, would you be the crime of beheading your head?"
Liu Wuzhou laughed loudly. "How can a hero sit and wait for death? The people are not afraid of death. Why did the prefect hold him to death? I, Liu Wuzhou, ask for the people today. Why should I beg you to die?"
He said that the land was righteous and the words were strict, but the subordinates behind him applauded, but there was no sound outside the Tianxiangfang.
After Wang Rengong was frightened and angry, a chill rushed straight to his back. Liu Wuzhou waved his hand. A strong man came up behind him and pulled Wang Rengong's arm and said, "Prespect Wang, please!"
"Zhang Wansui, what are you doing?" Wang Rengong stood up angrily and waved his hand hard. The man had already staggered back. He came over to capture Wang Rengong's man named Zhang Wansui, who was originally Liu Wuzhou's subordinate.
Wang Rengong was the prefect of Mayi. However, he started his career with military achievements. Although he was old, he was still capable at that time, and he was quite brave in fighting south and north. Zhang Wansui was just a lieutenant. He was helpless with him.
Wang Rengong shook Zhang Wansui and suddenly shouted: "Liu Wuzhou is in trouble. Come and arrest him quickly."
He shouted loudly, except for the dozens of people in front of him staring at him coldly. There was no echo. The huge Tianxiangfang was silent like death.
Wang Rengong came here with a romantic relationship. It can be said that he was unarmed. Facing everyone with swords and swords, he couldn't help but feel shocked.
Taking a breath, Wang Rengong said in a deep voice: "Liu Wuzhou. Do you have to know that the consequences of the rebellion will be to destroy the nine clans? Your Liu family is also a big family in Mayi. Because you were killed by one person, you were killed all of them. How can you bear it?"
As he spoke, he glanced out of the window. This was the second floor, although it was a little taller, and he jumped down with his skills. As long as he arrived at the long street outside, Liu Wuzhou could not do anything to him.
Liu Wuzhou sighed, "The prefect is such a bad word. I am not in a rebellion, but for the people. Since that's the case, why can't I bear it? Come on. Chen Ping, Zhou Zheng, Hu Feng, and Zhong Dian. The prefect couldn't figure it out, so he took it down, let him think about it carefully."
The four people behind Liu Wuzhou took a step forward and pulled out their waist knife with a "click" sound. However, it was Liu Wuzhou's four capable generals.
Wang Rengong didn't hesitate anymore. He shouted loudly. He reached out and picked up the chair beside him. He just swung it and everyone retreated. When Wang Rengong saw the air, he flashed out the chair, smashed the flower window, and jumped down. He was familiar with the terrain and knew that there were flowers downstairs, so it would be harmless if it fell down.
But others were in the air, and only saw a flash of sword lights in the flowers below. He could not dodge in the air. He screamed, and his legs were cut off. The flash of sword light flashed again, and Wang Rengong covered his throat in the air. He fell to the ground, and there was no sound.
Liu Wuzhou walked downstairs slowly. When he saw the sword-holder, he smiled and said, "Brother Yuchi's sword skills are as good as a god. It is indeed well-known. Now, for Mayi, there is no obstacle to opening a warehouse and releasing grain, the people of Mayi must be grateful."
Yuchi Gong's face was normal, "Mr. Liu is so serious. This is just my duty."
Liu Wuzhou looked at the dead Wang Rengong and sighed, "Come on, cut off the head of the prefect and show it to the public. Then open the warehouse to provide disaster relief and issue a manifesto."
Everyone went to do it in an orderly manner. But someone rushed in from outside. When Liu Wuzhou saw the man, he smiled and said to Yuchi Gong: "Brother Yuchi. You have killed the evil spirits. You should remember the first merits. Let's do the remaining small things. Please go back and rest."
Yuchi Gong nodded and left, recognizing that the man was Yuan Junzhang, who was Liu Wuzhou's sister-in-law, but he had not seen each other during this period. Before Tianxiangfang was released, Yuan Junzhang was already anxiously saying to Liu Wuzhou: "Brother, big things are not good, our plan has changed. Khan can only buy horses and can't send troops."
He said the ground louder. Liu Wuzhou frowned secretly and said with a wink: "Jun Zhang. Open the warehouse first and then talk about other things."
The two of them took their subordinates and walked out of Tianxiangfang with Wang Rengong's head, and walked straight to Wang Rengong's office where he handled political affairs. They looked a little excited.
In any case, they had been planning for too long. The arrow was on the string and had to be fired.
After they left, they did not notice that Yuchi Gong turned out of the alley behind. He frowned and murmured: "Can't send troops?"
He was superb in his kung fu and had a strong ear. Although Yuan Junzhang lowered his voice, he could hear it clearly and couldn't help but feel disappointed.
But disappointment is disappointment. After all, I couldn't leave immediately, so I wanted to turn around the house and sleep with my head covering. What a big deal about this rebellious uprising, but in his mind, he didn't feel like he was involved at all.
When I walked into an alley, I saw an oil seller coming from the opposite side. Yuchi Gong could only dodge aside.
The oil seller stopped beside Yuchi Gong and smiled and said, "Sir, can you buy some freshly squeezed rapeseed oil?"
Yuchi Gong looked at the man's hands and feet carefully. Seeing that his body was greasy and the calluses on his hands were a little shiny. He was indeed a genuine oil seller. He couldn't help but smile and said, "Do you think I'm like a buyer?"
The oil seller shook his head and said, "It's not like it."
When he walked past Yuchi Gong with an oil load, he said in a low voice: "Shaw fin in the middle of the night. Someone asked you to talk to Fengting Pavilion in Qiaogong Mountain."
After he finished speaking, he did not stop and walked straight out of the alley.
Yuchi Gong did not move slightly. He walked slowly towards the alley opposite. The two met each other by one. It seemed very ordinary.
Walking leisurely outside the city, only cheers were heard everywhere. Gongs and drums were loud, and people came to collect grain and land. Obviously, before Liu Wuzhou killed Wang Rengong, he had already made careful arrangements to promote the momentum.
Yuchi Gong left the city and looked back. He confirmed that no one was following him. Then he quickly walked towards the Qiaogong Mountain. He did not run deliberately, but just his steps were floating, like a wind.
In the wilderness, there were fewer people. Yuchi Gong took a long breath and then ran.
The trees on both sides kept flying backwards. The soil and brownstone were warm and cold in early spring. But the excitement in Yuchi Gong was self-evident.
If anyone in this world could say the four words "shark fin in the middle of the night", it would undoubtedly be Xiao Buyi!
Xiao Buyi came to him. How has he been recently? Thinking of this, a warm feeling surged in Yuchi Gong's heart.
In fact, he didn't spend a long time with Xiao Buyi. Xiao Buyi invited him to have a few meals. He taught Xiao Buyi a set of swordsmanship. Then when he saw him again, Xiao Buyi became a general. He became Xiao Buyi's subordinate. But he knew that Xiao Buyi was not arrogant at all and always treated him as a brother. This feeling. As long as he had the heart, he could definitely feel that Liu Wuzhou had always been respectful to him, but he understood that there was always some separation between the two.
After running to the woods at the foot of the mountain, Yuchi Gong slowed down. Looking at Fengting, he knew that it was just on the side of the mountain. Xiao Buyi saw him here, Yuchi Gong didn't think he was arrogant. He just thought he was a cautious person.
But I just raised my legs and wanted to go up the mountain. A man walked out of the woods. He smiled and said, "Brother Yuchi, are you okay?"
Xiao Buyi is very arrogant, but her eyes are full of warmth. A smile finally appeared on the corner of Yuchi Gong's mouth. He rarely smiled during this period!
"Buyi, have you...you have eaten?"
I originally wanted to ask Xiao Buyi if there was anything wrong, but the words were right. Yuchi Gong changed the topic and everyone was fine.
Xiao Buyi smiled and shook his head. "No. I roasted a rabbit at Wangfengting, and I was extremely bored. Then I went down the mountain to wait for you."
The two of them said it was dull, but there was a strong friendship in the middle, which could not be resolved.
Yuchi Gong nodded and said, "Okay, I haven't eaten either. You should give me more points. You should know. I have always had a lot of appetite!"
"Of course there is no problem." Xiao Buyi smiled, "It's no problem to give the whole rabbit to you."
Both of them laughed and walked side by side to the hillside, where a pile of fire was burned. Two jars of wine were placed on the side. Xiao Buyi re-branded the roasted rabbit until it was browned. He handed it to Yuchi Gong.
Yuchi Gong smiled and reached out to tear it apart, giving it to Xiao Buyi. However, he slapped a jar of wine and threw it to Xiao Buyi. He was so casual that he was very casual. After leaving for a long time, he looked a little closer. Xiao Buyi picked up the jar of wine and raised it in the air. Yuchi Gong picked up another jar of wine and drank it involuntarily.
Xiao Buyi smiled. "Why did Brother Yuchi sigh?"
Yuchi Gong sat in the pavilion and looked at the distant mountains and said, "Time is rising. We have not seen each other for a long time, Buyi, why are you sighing?"
Xiao Buyi whispered: "I sigh because I am in the world and I can't help myself."
Yuchi Gong was silent for a while. "You are looking for me, don't you know what's wrong?"
"Since I was chased by General Zhang, I have been running for life. I have been in Xiangyang recently." Xiao Buyi smiled and said, "I was busy there and the re-issue of the equal land order. The people liked it, and the gentry also supported it. But because there was something to deal with on the grassland, I went to the grassland. Now I was eager to turn around. Just because someone wanted to compete with me for territory. I went to attack Jiangxia first, Pei Xingyan, Wei Zheng and others asked me about the land idea, and I asked them to wait. I am not in a hurry, so I will tell the bandits attacking Jiangxia. I have already ordered it to the south of the Yangtze River and cannot be interfered with it!"
He said it was dull, but he was confident. Yuchi Gong listened carefully, sighed and murmured: "People are in the world, and they can't help themselves. Since your territory is tight, you shouldn't waste time here anymore."
Xiao Buyi smiled and said, "I ran back from the grasslands all the way. When I passed by Mayi, I suddenly thought that Brother Yuchi was here. If I missed it again, time went by. I really don't know when I will meet again, so I came to talk about it. The country may be important, and so do my friends."
Yuchi Gong held the jar of wine and drank it. He put it down and said, "If I could choose the dialect again, I would rather go to the grassland with you. Now I will fight the world with you in Jiangnan in a vigorous manner! But Buyi, Lord Liu, first helped me in Mayi, and then saved my life at Xia Pikou. I can't give up on him! You said that the dialect is good. People are in the world. I can't help myself, and there are some things. No matter what, I have to do. I just want to forgive me!"
There was a sign of pain in his eyes, but Xiao Buyi laughed. "Brother Yuchi said this. It shows that his mind is open-minded. But this time I came here to tell you my whereabouts is the purpose. In fact, I also want to tell you something about the grassland."
