Chapter 123: Turning Point
Although she is not very clear about the situation of the Chu State, she has also heard the name of General Shen, who is the person who shoulders the heavy responsibility of the border defense of the Chu State and holds the military power, the Shen family has been loyal and martyred for generations, and the General Shen of this generation has also made great achievements for the Chu State, and it is also the father of Xiaoxiao girl and Shen Zimiao, who wanted to put Su Jingshuo to death in the cabin last time.

The legendary General Shen, who is like the god of war, is naturally not the young general in silver-gray armor in front of him, but when he heard someone say General Shen, Chu Yunsheng subconsciously looked carefully, and found that his eyebrows were somewhat similar to Xiaoxiao and Shen Zimao, most of whom were close relatives in their family.
Looking at his expression, he obviously didn't know in advance that the person who came to kill the army this time was actually the imperial grandson of his own family, because when he heard He Rong's identity as King Zhao, Chu Yunsheng clearly saw that his eyes were a little more vigilant and uncertain.
It's just that he is a member of the Shen family, judging from Shen Zimiao's attitude last time, it is difficult to guess whether General Shen is on the side of the King of Chu or helping others, if it is the latter, then what choice will this young general who is a member of the Shen family make?
Chu Yunsheng was not sure, although she heard He Rong say that they were now trapped in this Linyang City by 100,000 troops, the moment she heard it, she was still worried and scared, and she was also flustered, but Su Jingshuo beside her was as calm and calm as ever.
This also gave her endless encouragement, and besides, he whispered in her ear before: Ah Sheng, don't be afraid, I am here.
That sentence was really like a magical spell, Chu Yunsheng was no longer afraid, and he was no longer panicked, with him, he was with her, what was there to be afraid of.
Thinking of this, she relaxed, stretched out her legs that had just bent up because of nervousness, sat on the roof, and leaned closer to Su Jingxuan's side.
Su Jingxuan raised his hand and patted her on the back gently, and while comforting her, he said to He Rong below: "King Zhao is really so conceited, can he mobilize the 100,000 border defenders of my Chu State for your use?"
When he said this, the corners of Su Jingxuan's mouth also had two smiles, but that smile was not as hypocritical and gentle as He Rong, and his smile, from beginning to end, exuded coldness.
"What do you mean by that?"
Seeing him with such a look, Lin Wei couldn't sit still any longer, raised his hand and drew his sword in front of him, looking like he was about to step forward and slash Su Jingxuan.
Su Jingxuan just glanced at him lightly, then turned his head again, looked at General Shen in silver-gray armor and said, "General Shen understands his position?"
Shen Yingqi did not answer Su Jingxuan directly, but raised his eyes and asked, "Who are you?"
As soon as this sentence came out, He Rong who was present looked as usual, but Lin Wei, who was angry before, had a sinking face, he suppressed his anger, and said in a deep voice: "Didn't your boss tell you? He is a felony who plotted to assassinate my King Zhao, full of nonsense, you can't believe it, if you fail to catch this felony this time, give us Zhao Guo an explanation, I'm afraid that Zhao and Chu will tear their faces and meet each other." ”
This sentence is very serious, especially in front of He Rong, the king of Zhao, his subordinates said this, naturally with his permission.
Such a threat is a great threat in the eyes of everyone present, except for Su Jingxuan and Chu Yunsheng.
After all, because of the two felons, the relationship between Zhao and Chu was affected, resulting in a river of blood flowing in the soldiers, which everyone did not want to see.
Therefore, after hearing his words, the young General Shen was still a little hesitant and uncertain on his face before, but at this time he finally calmed down and looked at Su Jingshuo with a resolute face.
Su Jingxuan shook his head and sighed slightly in a voice that only Chu Yunsheng could hear.
That sigh seemed to be helpless, as if there was regret.
It's just that Chu Yunsheng hasn't figured out what the regret in it is, but he smiled coldly and said to He Rong: "Since King Zhao insists on taking my life today, then come." ”
As soon as the words fell, I only listened to the four miles, all the yards, all the houses, suddenly there was a sound of breaking the air, except for the roof where Chu Yunsheng and Su Jingshuo were located, all the roof tiles in this mansion in the county town were shattered.
Countless masked people dressed in black suddenly emerged from the house, from under the courtyard wall, from the unnoticeable corners before.
Those people have an extremely murderous aura, and they can make people feel frightened from three feet away!
The archers who had just surrounded Su Jingxuan and Chu Yunsheng had lost their breath the moment they suddenly appeared.
It was someone who released an internal force, which not only shattered the tiles on the roof, but also shattered their internal organs.
Some of the guards with good strength gritted their teeth and held on, but the bloodshot oozing from the corners of their mouths still revealed their embarrassment at this time.
Everyone present, except for Su Jingxuan, the rest of them were stunned, including He Rong and Chu Yunsheng.
Chu Yunsheng didn't expect that when Su Jingxuan had already contacted the subordinates of Heavenly Killing, he had already lurked in this county seat perfectly.
And what He Rong didn't expect was that there were so many masters of heaven killing!
After many investigations, coupled with the fact that he had fought with Su Jingshuo on the ship, he also guessed that Su Jingshuo was the person who established the Heavenly Killing organization behind the scenes and developed it single-handedly, but in the face of such a strong master as Lin at this time, he was still a little surprised, the strength of Heavenly Killing was far above his estimates. Therefore, people like Su Jingshuo can't stay, and they definitely can't let him get out of Linyang City alive today, although there are many masters of heavenly killing, but he still has these 100,000 iron horsemen outside the city, no matter how powerful they are, they are unfathomable, and it is completely impossible to fight against 100,000 people with hundreds of people!
He Rong said to Su Jingxuan with a smile before Liang Xianling, General Shen and Lin Wei in front of him were still in shock and did not come back to their senses: "It's a pity, it's a pity, if these people don't show up, maybe the two of you will die today, and now, since you have pulled all your subordinates near you to make backs, and you can't stop you, let them accompany you." ”
As he spoke, he raised his hand, and before he could put down the hand that had just made a gesture, he heard a sudden burst of neat footsteps outside the house, and when he heard it, it was just a well-trained army.
In just a moment, Su Jingshuo and Chu Yunsheng, as well as his black-clothed subordinates who had been killed by the sky these days, had all been aimed at the bows and arrows of the border guards of the Chu State.
At this time, all of them will die without a place to be buried.
No matter how high your internal strength is, no matter how good your light skills are, you can't beat these thousands of arrows.
Seeing this, Su Jingxuan almost didn't even frown at the peak of his eyebrows, and smiled at He Rong: "Not necessarily." ”
The last word, the voice fell, only to hear a sound, an arrow feather has broken through the air, but the direction of going is Xiang He Rong.
And the person who shot that arrow was the leader of this army, Lin Rui, who was wearing the same silver-gray armor as Shen Yingqi.
The arrow seemed to break through the air, carrying a fierce momentum, but it didn't seem to want to take He Rong's life, but just deflected half an inch in the direction of him, grazing his shoulder.
And He Rong was still calm, not dodging or dodging, just looking at the arrow with cold eyes, and then following the direction of the arrow feather to look at the owner who shot the arrow.
However, as that arrow was shot, all the arrows that were facing Su Jingxuan and Chu Yunsheng before turned in one direction and aimed at He Rong and the others in the courtyard!
This change came too suddenly, and Liang Xianling, who was already a little weak, immediately collapsed on the ground.
Shen Yingqi, who was dressed in silver-gray armor, looked at Lin Rui who was shooting arrows with a puzzled expression, and said angrily: "Are you mistaken! This is a felony that the imperial court wants to arrest, if you offend Zhao State and cause a war between the two countries because of this, can you bear this charge?"
Lin Rui collected the bow and arrows, casually threw them at his subordinates, looked at Shen Yingqi with a sympathetic look and said, "It's you who made the mistake, do you know who the person you are sending troops to besiege the city to kill now?"
Without waiting for Shen Yingqi to react, Lin Rui raised his hand and lifted the hem of the armor, and knelt down in the direction of the roof where Su Jingxuan and Chu Yunsheng were: "Lin Rui, the guard general of Donghe County, see His Royal Highness the Imperial Grandson." ”
As soon as these words came out, the county town hall, which had at least 1,000 people in front and back, inside and out, suddenly appeared and quieted down.
Everyone seemed to have forgotten to breathe at this moment.
In the huge scene, even an embroidery needle can be heard clearly when it lands.
Especially Lin Rui's sharp voice - His Royal Highness the Imperial Grandson.
"You...... You...... What do you ......?"
Shen Yingqi looked at Lin Rui with a shocked face, and then looked at the ridge of the roof, the man who was as graceful as a god, for a while, his mind was blank, only Lin Rui's words of worship - Lin Rui, the guard general of Donghe County, see His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun.
And Liang Xianling, who had never seen any big scene on the side and was already paralyzed on the ground, heard this, his head exploded in an instant, his eyes went black, and he fainted directly.
The air was surprisingly quiet, Shen Yingqi only felt that someone seemed to have pressed a thousand catties of boulder in his heart, and he couldn't breathe, and under his big breath, he finally found his voice, and said to Lin Rui with the last bit of hope: "He is talking nonsense about his identity, how can you believe it, after all, I have the ...... brought by Master Su here."
Speaking of this, he subconsciously turned to look at Master Su beside him, only to find that Master Su, who had been wearing a light blue robe, had long since disappeared, and he didn't know when he left.
Lin Rui glanced at him, raised his hand and raised the token in his hand and said, "Can you see this clearly? If you can't determine the identity of His Royal Highness the Imperial Grandson, you can take a look at him again." ”
As he spoke, a person came out from behind him, with a cynical smile, and was looking at Shen Yingqi with a disgusted face at this time, and there was also a bit of unkindness in his tone: "Shen Yingqi, you have been stationed in the border city all these years, your brain has rusted off, and it has reached the point where you can't distinguish between right and wrong, this time, don't ask me to intercede for you, ask for more blessings." ”
After saying this, he had completely ignored the tense atmosphere in the four places, and swept directly to the roof where Su Jingxuan and Chu Yunsheng were on tiptoe.
This person is none other than the two elements who jumped into the water and escaped from Su Jingxuan and Chu Yunsheng in two separate directions that night, before Chu Yunsheng had been worried about his safety and whereabouts, but seeing him jumping around and full of vigor at this time, it was obvious that her worries were unnecessary.
Seeing him, Chu Yunsheng, who was also surprised by this scene, also guessed a little bit of the reason, it should be Eryuan who went to invite Lin Rui, the guard of Donghe County, Linyang City is directly under Donghe County, so Lin Rui's power should be above Shen Yingqi, so even though this Linyang City has been surrounded by 100,000 defenders, Su Jingxuan said that he may not obey Shen Yingqi's orders.
And the reason why the two can gain Lin Rui's trust is mostly because they know each other themselves, not only do he know Lin Rui, but he also knows Shen Yingqi, which can be seen from the expressions of the three of them after they met.
Thinking of this, Chu Yunsheng couldn't help but sigh, how could he be an ordinary person who could always accompany Su Jingxuan's side.
Her mind flipped here, Eryuan had already landed on the roof, and he bowed to Su Jingxuan, and said a little mischievously: "My subordinates see His Royal Highness the Imperial Grandson." ”
The last sentence of the title, he pulled it very long, and when a discerning person saw it, he knew that he was Shen Yingqi, who was already as pale as paper under the sarcastic courtyard at this time.
Su Jingshuo only raised his eyes and glanced at the duality of playing treasure, and he immediately retreated to the side very familiarly, not daring to do much more.
At this time, He Rong had already restrained the gentle smile on his face from beginning to end and said, "I didn't expect that you could find the Donghe County guard in a short period of time and send him, but this is a lonely negligent." ”
Su Jingxuan raised his eyes and smiled faintly at him: "King Zhao, you have been negligent in more than one place. ”
"Hmph, yes," He Rong generously admitted, standing with his hands in front of Su Jingxuan, no longer having the hypocritical smile before, this time the corners of his mouth were a little mocking, but he didn't know whether he was laughing at himself or Su Jingshuo, he just listened to him: "The imperial grandson is willing to take risks and use his own life as bait, this is a lonely negligence." ”
Su Jingxuan raised his hand and shook Chu Yunsheng's hand, and found that her fingertips were cold, regardless of the fact that so many people present were holding a heart to their throats, and regardless of how many people's lives and deaths depended on his laughter, he just looked at Chu Yunsheng very distressedly, put her cold fingertips to his lips, sighed softly, and then covered them tightly with his hands.
After doing all this, he looked at He Rong, who was waiting for him to answer, and said with a smile: "Since King Zhao admitted his negligence, then, should everything King Zhao did to the palace before, should the palace return all of it?"
His voice is like a song played on the guqin, profound and pure, with a charm that makes people's hearts turbulent.
Partial life, such a voice, with a smile said these words, but it makes people feel more cold than being in a thousand-year-old ice cellar.
If He Rong's murderous invisible words with a mask of gentleness and hypocrisy make people feel cold and frightened, then the words spoken by Su Jingxuan at this time make people feel even colder and more terrifying!
