Chapter Thirty-Six: Affection and Righteousness, Generosity in Return
Li Jingxian learned that Han Xiaoyue was the young general who slashed Li Renhan back then, and he couldn't help but think about the past. www.biquge.info It turned out that Li Jingxian's father was killed by Li Renhan. In this way, Han Xiaoyue became his benefactor. Han Xiaoyue took refuge temporarily in the name of Hu Yang, but unexpectedly, on the way to Liangcheng, he was intercepted and killed by a group of men and horses known as "General Han", and he was secretly pushed to the front of the two armies by Situ's predecessors.
The red-robed general leaned forward, looked at Han Xiaoyue carefully, and said with a smile: "You little beggar, what do you have to say when you stand up?"
"I ......" Han Xiaoyue hesitated, not knowing how to answer.
Li Jingxian shouted: "Hu Yang, come back quickly! You don't want to die?"
The Dongfang senior smiled slightly, and shouted loudly in ventriloquism: "The person in front of the princes is Han Xiaoyue, the son of the great general Han Tao. This one on a horse is an impostor!" The voice was so loud that everyone present covered their ears.
Everyone tried to follow the sound, but they couldn't figure out where it came from. Han Xiaoyue broke out in a cold sweat, not expecting that anyone would know his true background. At this time, I exposed myself, I'm afraid that both sides want to kill themselves and then hurry.
"Who is speaking wildly here?" the red-robed general raised his broadsword and looked around, "What, dare you do it?"
"Haha, you brazen man, don't leave quickly, when?" the ventriloquist voice was louder.
When the red-robed general heard this, he shouted, and pointed at Han Xiaoyue and said, "Wait until I kill your fake 'Han Xiaoyue' first, so as to boost the army's might!"
Han Xiaoyue took two steps back, her heart already in her throat. I heard a "bang" in my ears, and an arrow had already passed through my head. With a "poof", it was shooting into the head of the war horse under the crotch of the red-robed general. The horse neighed, and fell, and the red-robed general also fell off his horse. Han Xiaoyue looked back, and it was Li Jingxian's arrow that saved him.
Zhang Shiping turned his head and glanced at Li Jingxian and said, "Jingxian, you don't have to make a move." I think this Hu Yang should have some ability. ”
"Big brother, the son of this little brother Ducheng Hu. It is also very beneficial for us to make friends with him. Moreover, at this moment, the younger brother came to the rescue, and the brothers behind him would follow the eldest brother convincingly. ”
Zhang Shiping looked Hu Yang up and down and said, "Looking at this body, it doesn't look like a child of an official eunuch." I have never seen those eunuchs in the capital so tough. ”
Li Jingxian felt a little remorseful in his heart, for fear that Zhang Shiping would have doubts. "It seems really a bit hasty to let Engong bear the identity of 'Lord Hu'. ”
Zhang Shiping nodded suspiciously: "Well, Jingxian, you're right. Kill two birds with one stone!" After that, Zhang Shiping urged the horse, walked to Han Xiaoyue's side, stretched out his hand to look at him and said, "Brother Hu Yang, get up quickly!"
Han Xiaoyue stretched out her hand, only to see Zhang Shiping pull him up from the ground with a little force, throw him behind him, and ride with him.
The red-robed general got up from the ground, grabbed the big knife, patted the dust on his body, and wanted to step forward. Zhang Shiping laughed and said: "'General Han', please come back quickly! I have seen a lot of people like you! I have seen a lot of people like you! I was born in troubled times, and I have no choice but to pretend to be officers and soldiers, and I will spare your life! It's just that next time you must see clearly that we are a righteous army, not a caravan!"
"Hmph!" the red-robed general spat out, "All in all, you have to leave something behind to pass today!"
Zhang Shiping chuckled: "Yo he! What's the matter, you just blocked the road and blackmailed you, right?"
The red-robed general pointed to the soldiers behind him and said, "Otherwise, what am I here to pull such a big scene?"
"Hey!" Zhang Shiping leaned forward, looked at him and smiled, "Boy, do you know what team we are?"
"I don't care who you are, if you meet me today, don't think about going in vain!"
"It's kind of interesting!" Zhang Shiping said, straightening up.
Suddenly, Zhang Shiping saw smoke and dust rising in the direction of Liangcheng from a distance, and it seemed that a large army had attacked in his direction. He pointed with his hand, and Li Jingxian looked in the direction of his finger, and his face changed.
"Big brother, the defenders of Liangcheng seem to have discovered us. What are we going to do?"
Zhang Shiping waved his hand and shouted: "Brothers, the rear team will become the front team, retreat!" With that, he turned his horse's head and withdrew to the rear.
The red-robed general didn't know what to do, stood there and looked at their backs and laughed: "Run!
Han Xiaoyue sat on Zhang Shiping's horse and looked back, only to see a military flag fluttering in the distance, with a big "Yang" character written on it. "It must be General Yang Fan of Liangcheng, it seems that I have been saved. Thinking so, Han Xiaoyue planned to enter Liangcheng tonight.
Zhang Shiping withdrew to the original camp site and summoned Li Jingxian into the tent. Li Jingxian knew in his heart that Zhang Shiping must have come for the matter of "Hu Yang". Sure enough, Zhang Shiping had already arranged for his subordinates to keep Han Xiaoyue under firm surveillance.
Li Jingxian walked into the tent, and Zhang Shiping asked straight to the point: "Jingxian, you are smarter than me, you come to tell me, who is this Hu Yang? Also, how can there be people in our army who know ventriloquism?"
Li Jingxian paused for a moment and said, "Big brother, don't listen to that ventriloquist one-sided, we don't even know who the person who is talking is." ”
Zhang Shiping nodded: "This person must be mixed with the thirty-three people we received last night." You go check it out for me and see what's going on. After speaking, he added, "Also, that Hu Yang, you can interrogate me again! If he really is Han Xiaoyue, he will never be able to stay!"
"Can't stay?" Li Jingxian asked, "Big brother, what do you mean?"
"If it's Hu Yang, you can still help me attack the capital. If it's Han Xiaoyue, how can I control it?
Li Jingxian didn't say anything, nodded in promise, withdrew from the tent, and walked straight to the tent that monitored Han Xiaoyue.
"Go down first. Li Jingxian said, and opened the soldiers guarding outside the tent.
Han Xiaoyue saw him walk in, and hurriedly greeted him: "Jingxian, what is Zhang Shiping's purpose in trapping me here?"
Li Jingxian sighed: "Brother Han, I think, Zhang Shiping probably already knows your identity. He sent me to interrogate you, once it is confirmed that you are Han Xiaoyue, he will kill you to sacrifice the flag!"
"Kill me?" Han Xiaoyue couldn't help but chuckle when she heard this, and she no longer felt fear of death in her heart. In his opinion, after so many thrills, death is no longer the worst outcome.
Li Jingxian nodded: "Brother Han, I will never betray you." But I can tell that no matter how much I deny your identity, he may not believe it. ”
"So, no matter who I am, he's going to get rid of me?"
"Not bad. From what I know about him, it's not easy to lead this team, and he won't allow any mistakes. This identity of yours is the biggest hidden danger by his side!"
Han Xiaoyue was not surprised. He is an official, Zhang Shiping is a thief, how can he exist in the same team at the same time? After thinking about it, he thought of Liangcheng's staff friend Yang Fan, so he patted Li Jingxian and said, "However, Jingxian. Just as we were retreating, I saw the banner of Yang Fan, the defender of Liangcheng. Yang Fan and I used to be friends with staff, and if you can help me get out of here, I can go to him. ”
"How easy is it to get out of here!"
"I have to leave!" Han Xiaoyue said, pointing outside the tent, "Jingxian, you have to understand that if you follow Zhang Shiping, you will be exterminated sooner or later." It was either exterminated by my Dashu court, or exterminated by the Song army. Why don't you go to Yang Fan with me!"
Li Jingxian hesitated a little: "Brother Han, after all, I have become a thief, how can the officers and soldiers tolerate me?"
Han Xiaoyue nodded and said, "Don't worry, with me, nothing goes wrong." ”
Li Jingxian thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Brother Han, if I fight for my life tonight, I will also send you out of here." In any case, Zhang Shiping is also kind to me. If he had sinned against me for this, I would have died without regret. ”
"Jingxian, think again!"
Li Jingxian waved his hand and said, "Brother Han, although you and Zhang Shiping are incompatible, both of you are kind to me Li Jingxian." I will repay this kindness no matter what. Sending you away is my reward to you, and it is also my duty to follow Zhang Shiping. After that, he hugged his fists and gave a deep salute, "Brother Han, if we have a fate in the future, we will meet again!
Han Xiaoyue hurriedly helped him up and said, "Jingxian, you are serious. It seems that after all, it is impossible to move Li Jingxian. Such a loving and righteous person is really commendable to Han Xiaoyue, who is above the temple. The charm of the rivers and lakes does not stop there.
Zhang Shiping had already arranged for people to lurk around the big tent, just waiting for Li Jingxian's reply. Once it was confirmed that Han Xiaoyue was not Hu Yang, he immediately rushed up and hacked him to death. Deeply trusting Li Jingxian, he never expected that Li Jingxian had already made up his mind and directly took Han Xiaoyue away from here.
"Big brother!" a soldier rushed into the big tent, "Jingxian and Hu Yang are gone!"
The sun had just set, and Zhang Shiping, who was waiting for a reply in the tent, looked a little anxious. Hearing this news, he couldn't help but be furious: "What ****** Hu Yang? This person is clearly Han Xiaoyue! Li Jingxian, this traitor, I trust him so much, he actually dares to betray me!" After that, he hurriedly ordered, "Come on, look for me everywhere, and be sure to arrest these two people!"
In order to hide people's eyes, Li Jingxian and Han Xiaoyue rode a fast horse to Liangcheng. At this moment, it is less than thirty miles away from Liangcheng, and it only takes half an hour to reach the foot of Liangcheng. Zhang Shiping chased in the direction of Liangcheng with thirty fast horses, and the others searched in eight directions. "Han Xiaoyue's destination must be Liangcheng, and he has nowhere else to go!" Zhang Shiping thought, waving his horsewhip and speeding faster.
"Thirty miles ahead is Liangcheng. Han Xiaoyue said, and couldn't help but feel a surge of joy in her heart, "Jingxian, you can go into the city with me!"
Li Jingxian held the reins in front of him and said, "Brother Han, don't persuade me." Again, I will repay the kindness of both of you. I will never do anything to be sorry for Zhang Shiping. ”
"Even if he gets angry with you, you won't leave?"
"Not bad. Even if he wants to kill me because of this, I have no regrets!" After speaking, Li Jingxian sped up even more.
Suddenly, the two front legs of the war horse tripped over the tripping rope, and with a scream, it fell out. Han Xiaoyue and Li Jingxian were suddenly thrown off their horses and fell seven or eight feet away. The horse was thrown to the ground, panting hard, and it seemed that it was impossible to stand up again.
Before the two of them could react, dozens of torches were suddenly lit from the darkness and surrounded the two, and the leader was the red-robed general during the day. I saw him slowly walk forward, laughing and said, "Isn't this the two stinky boys who shot my war horse and claimed to be 'Han Xiaoyue'?
The two men sat on the ground and looked at each other, and they laughed out loud. The red-robed general scratched his head and said, "What's the matter? Why are you two still laughing?
Li Jingxian sat on the spot, looked the red-robed general up and down, and said, "I said, this 'General Han', where did all your soldiers go during the day?
Without waiting for him to answer, Han Xiaoyue waved her hand and said with a smile: "Don't say it, it must have cost a lot of silver taels to hire so many people, but I didn't get any money, I'm afraid that no one will rob him anymore!"
After the two finished speaking, they laughed out loud. The red-robed general was so angry that he stomped his feet and said, "Stinky boy, don't say anything else, I haven't seen any money today, and my brothers are so hungry that their chests are pressed against their backs! You two can't get any money today, so we'll slaughter you and cook you!" he said, poking the big knife in his hand on the ground. Unexpectedly, the blade actually fell, and the entire back of the knife smashed on the foot of the red-robed general.
The red-robed general screamed and kept jumping to his feet. This not only made Han Xiaoyue and Li Jingxian laugh, but even the other minions couldn't bear it and laughed out loud.
"What are you laughing at? fuck it!" the red-robed general blushed and kicked the minions around him, but he still couldn't stop their laughter.
Just when everyone was deadlocked, Zhang Shiping had already caught up. In the night, the light of the fire here is very dazzling. Following the sound of the horse's hooves, the red-robed general saw Zhang Shiping getting closer and closer, and finally restrained the horse's head beside him.
"Bold Li Jingxian, bold Hu Yang! Are you going to take refuge in the officers and soldiers and betray me Zhang Shiping and my brothers?" Zhang Shiping was obviously very angry and his tone was very serious, but in the end he did not want to expose his lies in front of Li Jingxian.
The red-robed general kicked away the broken broadsword, pulled out the short knife from his waist, looked Zhang Shiping up and down, and said, "What do you want?
Zhang Shiping glanced at him with slanted eyes, ignored it, and continued: "Li Jingxian, why do you want to betray me if I trust you so much?"
Li Jingxian stood up and bowed deeply: "Big brother, I don't mean to betray you. As you may have guessed, Hu Yang is not his real name. ”
Zhang Shiping nodded: "Don't say it again! Sure enough, it seems that I really can't keep him!" As he spoke, he pulled out a long knife from under the saddle, "Li Jingxian, you can only live one of you and him today, you can leave quickly!"
"Big brother, forgive me!" After speaking, he gave a deep salute.
The red-robed general could see that immediately this vulgar-looking person still cared very much about this person named "Li Jingxian". I saw him suddenly turn around, hugged Li Jingxian, put the short knife in his right hand against his neck, and shouted: "Enough! Your conversation can be stopped! Now I will say a few words." He cleared his throat, "You have entered my realm for the second time, and this time you must leave the money to buy the road anyway, otherwise you will not want to leave me safely!"
Zhang Shiping couldn't help but be a little panicked when he saw Li Jingxian being coerced by a short knife, but he still had a plan in his mind, and said with a smile: "'General Han', don't get excited, there is something to discuss! It's nothing more than some silver taels, I'll give it to you." As he spoke, he took out a bag from his bosom and shook it in the air.
"What's in your pocket?" Seeing this, the red-robed general loosened his hand. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhang Shiping touched his waist again, pulled out the dagger, and threw it hard. The red-robed general suddenly turned red in front of him, and he was stabbed right between his eyebrows. I saw him take two steps backwards and fall in a pool of blood.
At this moment, the war horse that had fallen to the ground just now suddenly let out a long neighing and rose into the air. Li Jingxian suddenly stepped forward and grabbed the reins, lifted Han Xiaoyue onto the horse, and whipped the horse's ass with all his might, and the war horse jumped out violently. In just a moment, Han Xiaoyue actually ran out of the crowd in full view of everyone.
Zhang Shiping hurriedly ordered: "Quick! Prepare to shoot arrows!" As soon as the order sounded, everyone stretched out their bows and arrows, aiming at Han Xiaoyue.
If the arrows were shot at this time, Han Xiaoyue would lose half a life if he didn't die. Li Jingxian suddenly took a few steps back, also opened his bow and arrows, aimed at everyone, and shouted: "Whoever dares to shoot an arrow first, I will shoot him to death!"
Everyone was so frightened that they didn't dare to move anymore, so they had to look at Zhang Shiping. Just a moment of hesitation, Han Xiaoyue had already run away.
Zhang Shiping sighed and ordered everyone to hang down their bows. Li Jingxian also lowered his bow and knelt down in front of Zhang Shiping: "Big brother, Li Jingxian obeys the fate!"
Zhang Shiping looked at the red-robed general's minions who were stunned on the side, and said lightly: "Your leader is dead, do you have a place to go?" Seeing that they did not speak, Zhang Shiping continued: "If there is no place to go, go back with me, everyone has a salary!"
