Chapter 228: Attempted Assassination
Zoya waited all afternoon by a mound of dirt by the side of the road until it was completely dark. When the number of people outside decreased, Zoya stood up from the mound and walked all the way to the back door of Zhuotu's house.
At this time, there was no one around, Zhuo Ya looked left and right, stretched out his hand and pushed the door. To her surprise, the door was locked!
She couldn't help but push the door again. This time, the door opened, and it was the janitor who greeted her.
"Princess Zhuoya, your lord told me to give this to you. Don't come back again. ”
As he spoke, he handed out a large package. Zhuo Ya opened it and saw that it was a pack of silver taels that were not light, and a broken sword, and Zhuo Ya instantly understood.
"Is that his answer?"
The janitor shook his head: "What do I mean, how can I speculate?"
With a "bang", Zhuoya threw the bag on the door. The janitor was taken aback: "Princess......"
Zoya was furious: "Has he forgotten his identity?!"
"No, I never forgot. ”
Just then, Zotu came out of the darkness. Zhuo Ya held half a sword in his hand and asked his face: "Since you haven't forgotten, why do you continue to be a lackey of the Tuoba people?"
Zhuo Tu sighed: "Princess, it's not that I don't want to, but the situation doesn't allow it. ”
Zhuo Ya grabbed Zhuo Tu's collar: "The situation, my eldest brother treated you well at the beginning, how can you be worthy of the ancestors of the Ding Ling clan and my dead eldest brother now?"
Zhuo Tu said softly: "Now the people of the old department are dead, and the old people are old, if they raise troops at this time, I am afraid that they will be defeated." ”
Zhuo Ya snorted coldly: "Are you afraid of death?"
Zhuo Tu gritted his teeth, he pushed Zhuo Ya away, and ripped off his shirt. The sturdy chest was covered with scars, large and small: "How many times have I been born and died, and when will I be afraid of death?" ”
Zhuo Ya looked at him with an extremely unfamiliar look: "Your changes are simply unrecognizable to me! Ding Lingbu no longer exists, as Ding Lingren, we should die for her!"
Zhuo Tu sighed: "Princess, Ding Lingbu is gone, but Ding Lingren is still there." Now there are only a few of us left in the old department, and once they are killed, Ding Ling will really disappear! I'm different from you, I still have children, I have to make sure they live......"
Zhuo Ya asked coldly: "Child? When your child one day knows that his father was the general of the Ding Ling Division, what will he think? Will these children who are left behind lose the pride of the Ding Ling people for the rest of their lives and become the obedient people of the Tuoba Tribe?"
Zhuotu immediately stopped. Zhuo Ya said sharply: "If you don't want to, then I won't force you." I can tell you that I'd rather use my last strength to terrify the Tuoba than make Ding Zero synonymous with groveling!" With that, she left Zhuotu's door without looking back.
Zhuotu stood there for a long time, not moving for a long time.
He didn't expect that three days later, an earth-shattering thing would happen in Tuoba Border City.
Tuoba Aoba was assassinated!
That night, Tuoba Aoba took the child to the big tent where Zahe was, wanting to discuss something with him. Now, in the capital of the border city, everyone except Zahe, who still lives in a dilapidated tent, lives in brick houses.
Although it is spring, it is still cold. The broken tent leaked everywhere, and no one came to fix it. Tie the clothes wrapped in fur inside and out, and are huddled on the couch shivering.
Seeing Tuoba Aoba coming, Zahe raised his eyes numbly, and soon lowered his eyes again.
"Zahe, let me ask you, is that the only list of the people of the old department?"
Zahemu snorted blankly: "What else do you want, just say it, and I'll give it to you...... Can you give me a full meal?"
"Dongshanbu, except for Zhuotu, is there no one else?"
Zahe shook his head: "No more ......"
Tuoba Qingye pressed step by step: "Don't you want to play with me, doesn't Ding Lingbu have a secret guard or the like?"
Zha closed his chapped lips and smiled: "If we have the heart and eyes of your Tuoba Department, how can we fall into such a state?"
Tuoba Qingye thought about it carefully, and motioned to the left and right sides to bring a piece of fat mutton to the tie. Zahe immediately jumped up from the couch, grabbed the mutton, and devoured it.
"If you think of anything, just tell me, and I'll give you a big piece of fat lamb. ”
Unable to speak, he whined and swallowed the flesh in his mouth. At this moment, a bone needle flew fiercely towards Tuoba Aoba. Tuoba Aoba subconsciously blocked it with the child in his arms, and the bone needle stabbed into the child's stomach.
The poor boy wept a few times, and then there was no sound. Tuoba Aoba's face changed greatly: "Someone, there are assassins!"
Zahe only cared about devouring the mutton, not caring about the changes around him. At that moment, a scimitar slashed hard at Zahe's back, and Zahe snorted, and he was no longer alive.
Princess Ding Ling Zhuoya rushed in and slashed at Tuoba Aoba. Although Tuoba Aoba is ruthless, he is very mediocre in terms of spiritual arts. She took one of Zhuoya's moves left and right, and was immediately chased by Zhuoya and ran all over the ground.
"Someone, come on!"
Tuoba Aoba was terrified and yelled. The surrounding guards only reacted at this time, and they swarmed up and surrounded Zhuoya. Even though Zhuoya was powerful, she was outnumbered after all, and she was soon tied to Tuoba Aoba's body.
"Are you the princess of the original Ding Lingbu?"
Tuoba Aoba clutched his slashed arm and glared at Zoya.
Zhuo Ya sneered: "Yes, I am Princess Ding Lingbu. How, do you want to kill me?"
At this time, a guard came over and pressed the carotid artery of the tie: "Princess, the tie is dead." ”
Tuoba Aoba immediately ordered: "Lock up Zhuoya, the princess of the original Ding Zero, and watch it carefully." What Zahe can't spit out, I'm going to make her spit it out slowly!"
Zhuo Ya said angrily: "Tuoba Aoba, if you have the ability, you will kill me, I tell you, you don't want to know a word from my mouth!"
Tuoba Aoba was furious: "Take her down for me!"
Zoya was dragged out of the big tent. A maid came over with the child in her arms: "Princess, I'm afraid this child is going to die!"
Tuoba Aoba's eyebrows twisted into pimples: "Are you still angry?"
The maid nodded: "It's alive." ”
"Then cure it!" Tuoba Aoba hugged the child steadily.
"That'...... What should he do?" the maid nodded at the corpse of Zahe.
Tuoba Aoba said slowly: "It's a secret, and I only say that he is sick and recuperating." ”
"Yes!"
