537 Cross-examination (I)
After he left, Wu Xing couldn't help but speak: "Big brother, how can you let him go?"
"What if you don't let it go? The two armies are fighting, and they don't kill them, not to mention that although this person doesn't know his identity, since he can be ordered to come and speak for Liao Chuxiu, he must be a close and trusted person around him, after you take him down at this time, you may not be able to force Liao Chuxiu to compromise, but may anger him. ”
Wu Shijun looked up at him as he spoke, and said, "Don't forget, your uncle and aunt, as well as your sister-in-law and nephew are all in the hands of Liao Chuxiu, do you want me to gamble with their lives and everyone's safety Liao Chuxiu will be soft-hearted and will not be angry with his wife and children?!"
Wu Xing was speechless for a moment, and he gritted his teeth tightly for a moment before he spoke: "But big brother, do you really want to go to Liao Chuxiu's appointment?"
Wu Shijun didn't speak when he heard this.
Wu Xing suddenly became anxious: "Big brother, don't be confused, he is a general of the imperial court to quell the rebellion, how can he easily spare us, not to mention that although we have lost Yang Hui now, we may not have the strength to fight, then Liao Chuxiu asked you to go out of the city, who knows what idea he has in his heart, if he wants to harm you, won't you send it to the door yourself?"
"If you're really worried about what happened to him, it's a big deal for me to see him, big brother, you must not take risks!"
Wu Shijun pursed his lips, frowned when he heard Wu Xing's words, and said, "Okay, let me think about it." ”
"Big brother!"
"You don't need to say much, I have my own measure. ”
……
After Luo Yi left Quning City, he did not return to Yangjuni, but went directly to Wuli Pavilion.
Although the Wuli Pavilion is called the pavilion, it is actually a ferry, the ferry is extremely empty around it, in front of it is the waterway leading directly to the Bai'an River, the river is overgrown with reeds and weeds, a fishing boat is docked at the edge of the ferry, and Liao Chuxiu is sitting in the bow of the boat, holding a fishing rod in his hand as if he is fishing.
When Luo Yi went, Liao Chu corrected the rod, and there was a live fish under the hook, Liao Chuxiu took the fish down, threw it into the water, and threw the fishing rod out again.
"Shizi, my subordinates have already brought the words to Wu Shijun. ”
"Yes. ”
Liao Chuxiu replied lightly, and then did not speak again.
Luo Yi hesitated for a moment, but he still couldn't hold back the doubts in his heart, and asked, "Shizi, will Wu Shijun come?"
Liao Chuxiu looked at the river and said lightly: "Yes." ”
Luo Yi frowned when he heard this: "But why should the prince be so troublesome, we will be able to take Qu Ning in two days at the latest, and what to do with Wu Shijun at that time is all up to the prince, why should the prince take the risk to come to see him by himself?"
Today's Wu Shijun is like a trapped beast, who knows if he will come, and even if he comes, how can he know that he will not jump over the wall in a hurry and do something?
Liao Chuxiu didn't speak when he heard this.
Of course he wants to come to see Wu Shijun, if he waits until the city is broken, it is unknown whether Wu Shijun will be able to survive, and even if he can survive, he may not be able to know what he wants to know from his mouth, and even let him do some of the things he wants to do.
What he wanted was never Wu Shijun's life.
Liao Chuxiu stuck the fishing rod in the bow of the boat and said to Luo Yi, "How is Bai An now?"
"I don't know yet, there is no news from the people who sent it. ”
Liao Chuxiu lowered his eyes when he heard this, last night Wu Shijun suddenly led his troops to raid Jiang Ping, and even transferred all the troops of Yang Hui, and he guessed that something was going to happen to Bai An, otherwise with Wu Shijun's mentality, he would never make a desperate bet to make a vacancy in Yang Hui's defense, so that they could take Yang Hui effortlessly.
However, in this case, no news is the best news, at least it can show that Bai An's side is temporarily stable.
Liao Chuxiu looked at the occasional fish jumping on the river, and somehow suddenly remembered Feng Qiaolai.
Thinking that when she first saw him, she pretended to be distant with a small face, thinking that she kissed and touched him after she was drunk, and thinking about the city wall where she hugged him and cried...
What a kid.
Liao Chuxiu stroked his heart, and always felt that it was a little different from before, and he was a little more worried, and he began to miss it.
After all, he and the little rabbit haven't seen each other for more than a month, and I don't know what happened to the little conscienceless now......
The river was murmuring, Liao Chuxiu was leaning on the bow of the boat, and he didn't know what he remembered and couldn't help but chuckle.
Luo Yi stood at the ferry, wanting to speak, but remembering that Liao Chuxiu didn't like the people around him to say more, seeing that the sun was beginning to set in the west, but the people who should have come had not yet come, Luo Yi felt a little anxious in his heart.
He paced back and forth, calculating the hour, and when he was approaching Shen Shi, he just wanted to ask Liao Chuxiu if he wanted to return to Yangjun first, but the sound of horses' hooves suddenly came not far away.
Wu Shijun didn't plan to come, because he knew how risky it would be to come here.
Liao Chuxiu may have deceived him with words, may have set up a situation to capture him, may have already had a trap and danger everywhere, maybe someone will cut off his back road as soon as he comes out of Qu Ning, and he may even never go back...
But he came anyway.
Wu Shijun rode his horse and stopped beside the stone road not far away, he didn't take anyone behind him, let alone let Wu Xing follow, but came to the appointment alone.
After seeing Luo Yi from a distance, Wu Shijun turned over and dismounted.
It wasn't until he led the horse to the front that Luo Yi came back to his senses.
"Lord Wu. ”
"Where is Liao Shizi?"
Luo Yi pointed to the boat on the ferry behind him: "The prince is on the boat, Lord Wu can go over." ”
Wu Shijun glanced at the figure on the bow of the boat over there, and after taking a deep breath, he handed the reins to Luo Yi and walked towards that side with his feet raised.
It is surrounded by reeds, rustling when the wind blows.
When he got closer, Wu Shijun saw the person sitting on the bow of the boat clearly, and the first glance fell on the person's face.
It was an extremely outstanding face, a little more beautiful than the most beautiful woman Wu Shijun had ever seen before, but it didn't look weak at all, his eyebrows and eyes were cold, and the momentum on his body diluted the bright color of his appearance, which would not make people mistake him for a woman at all.
Wu Shijun couldn't help but be a little shaken, although the Marquis of Zhenyuan back then was handsome, he was far from having this good appearance.
"Lord Wu is here. ”
"The son of the world is so idle. ”
Liao Chuxiu raised his lips: "It's rare to be able to steal this half-day leisure, and thank Lord Wu for borrowing light." ”
Wu Shijun's face was slightly gloomy when he listened to Liao Chuxiu's words, Liao Chuxiu was clearly mocking him for raising troops to rebel and let the court quell the rebellion, who would have thought that it was obviously a strong trend and was defeated in a blink of an eye, and who would have thought that the original stable situation would fall to today's field.
Thinking of the Yang Hui who was taken away, and thinking of the parents, wives and children who fell into the hands of Liao Chuxiu, Wu Shijun said coldly in anger: "The prince asked me to come here today, presumably not to satirize Wu, if there is anything in the world, the prince might as well say it straight to the point." ”
