In recent days, rumors lurking among the high-ranking officials of the Tianshuo Cabinet that there is a gap between the Northern Desert Kingdom have been blowing like the wind throughout the Holy Capital City. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Soon after, Yang Da, the deputy assistant of the cabinet, was imprisoned on charges of collaborating with the enemy and treason. There are more than 300 members of the Yang family, the men are exiled, the female dependents are filled into the workshop, and the young children are reduced to slavery, but the eldest son Yang Yong, who is studying abroad, has absconded when he heard the news.

A generation of famous families collapsed.

Late at night, Zhenyuan General's Mansion. The night breeze blows, and the shadows of the verdant trees are like ghosts with teeth and claws in the darkness.

"Ah...... Let go of me, help, help...... It hurts, it hurts, ah......"

For the past few days, every night, there would always be a woman's terrible and frightened scream from the General's Mansion.

"Xiu'er, don't be afraid, it's okay, it's okay!" Zhou Yu held down the crazy girl on the bed, but she struggled more violently as if she was burned by a soldering iron, Zhou Yu had no choice but to find a rope to tie her hands and feet and bolt it to the bedpost, and then lit her sleeping hole, which quieted down.

Looking at the pale and emaciated girl on the bed, who was no longer bright and moving, his heart ached, and the scene of his sister being ruined by that disgusting man appeared in front of him, his fists clenched, and a name grinded out between his lips and teeth, "Mu Ruolan!" ”

"Zhou Yu, you also know heartache?" In the silence of the night, suddenly a man's low and cold voice was heard.

The lights in the room went out, and the surroundings instantly fell into darkness, a sword shadow cut through the thick inky darkness and flashed cold light towards Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu reacted very quickly, sideways to avoid the sword blade, the man pulled a sword flower and pressed over, and the move hit the key point, Zhou Yu was empty-handed, and the internal force was only two or three percent left.

However, just when Zhou Yu thought that he was going to die under this person's sword tonight, suddenly the sword edge avoided his vital point and stabbed him in the shoulder, he covered his bleeding shoulder and fell to the ground in embarrassment, the severe pain made his spiritual platform clear, he gasped and looked up at the man, "You, why don't you kill me?" ”

The man had the light on his back, dressed in black and almost blended with the darkness, his voice was dark and hoarse, and he was silent for a long time before he said slowly, "Zhou Yu, even if the Zhou and Yang families can't get married, you shouldn't harm my father, and you shouldn't ruin the entire Yang family......"

Zhou Yu was shocked, immediately guessed the identity of this person, and blurted out, "Are you...... Yang Yong? ”

The man sneered, "Back then, your Zhou family reneged on the marriage contract in order to cling to power, and now you have framed my father and wiped out the Yang family. ”

Zhou Yu's heart jumped, he stood up with his body propped up, and was eager to explain, "That's not the case, Yang Yong, listen to me......"

"Enough!" Yang Yong interrupted him sharply, "You are the person who drew the prisoner on the confession of Dali Temple, you are the one who led people to break into the mansion and go straight to the study to find out the so-called secret letter of collaborating with the enemy, and you are also the person who secretly returned to Beijing to report the news, Zhou Yu, you won, the Yang family is difficult to turn over, why should you deny it!" ”

Zhou Yu was speechless, what Yang Yong said was true, and the Yang family was indeed destroyed in his hands.

"Yang Yong, it won't help you kill me, collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country is a big crime of the Jiu clan. You are already the last bloodline of the Yang family, it is better to leave here, I can treat today's events as if they never happened, you, run for your life......"

Yang Yong's face was gloomy, and hatred burst out in his eyes, "If you don't kill me today, you will regret it!" With that, he jumped and disappeared into the night.

The vermilion lacquer gate of the Yang Mansion was pasted with staggered seals, and there was no sound in the courtyard walls, and there was no light, and the former high-ranking families fell into hellish darkness.

The eyes were full of desolation, the walls were ruined, and the lanterns in the corners of the walls swayed in the wind. Yang Yong stood in his ruined home, his fists clenched.

Suddenly, the cold light flashed, the sharp arrow pierced the night, he quickly dodged, and then, countless arrow clusters flew towards him, only to see him roll on the ground, more than a dozen black-headed short arrows tinkling on the bluestone slab, his eyes froze, this is the Janissary only black iron short crossbow, very penetrating, one can kill people. These people are the Praetorian Guard?

Yang Yong left home when he was young, and while traveling all over the world, he also learned a superior martial arts, and it was not a problem to deal with a few Praetorian Guards, he was lucky dantian, condensed internal strength, and smashed a half-human high unicorn stone sculpture into several figures hidden in the darkness with a wave of his palm, and the stone sculpture burst with a bang, and the rubble splashed in all directions, accompanied by several screams and rolled to the ground.

In the blink of an eye, Yang Yong had disappeared into the night, and quickly ran into a long and narrow dark alley.

A carriage stopped at the entrance of the alley, Yang Yong paused, heard messy footsteps in the depths of the alley, those people caught up, he jumped up and jumped on the carriage, grabbed the reins, and didn't care whether there was anyone in the carriage behind him, drove the carriage and left.

galloping all the way, until he was sure to get rid of those Praetorian Guards, Yang Yong stopped his horse, and as soon as his feet touched the ground, he heard a low sobbing sound from the carriage, and he paused as he left, lifted the curtain, and saw that in the darkness of the room, a snow-white small pear blossom with a rainy face, weak like a lily swaying in the wind and rain, looking at him timidly with black and white misty eyes.

Yang Yong didn't expect that there was someone in the carriage. He was a little stunned for a moment, "Aunt, girl, why are you in the car?" ”

"This, this is my carriage ......" The tears in the corners of her eyes rolled down tremblingly, and the girl looked at him timidly, and suddenly her eyes lit up, "You, you are the eldest son of the Yang family?" ”

As soon as her voice fell, her neck was suddenly choked, and the tears gathered in her eyes fell all over her face, and her eyes, washed by tears, became clearer and darker. Yang Yong's breath stagnated, and the strength in his hand couldn't help but lighten a little, "Who are you?" What is the intention of running to the vicinity of Yang's Mansion late at night? ”

"Young Master Yang......" Sakura's red lips opened slightly, trembling slightly, "I'm Ruolan......"

"Ruolan?" He frowned, there seemed to be such a person in his memory, and suddenly his eyes froze, "Are you Mu Ruolan?" The cousin who was fostered in the Zhou family? He vaguely remembered that when he was seventeen years old, he and the eldest lady of the Zhou family set up a family affair, and he also went in and out of the Zhou Mansion, and occasionally saw a little girl of eight or nine years old, quietly following behind the two daughters of the Zhou family. Therefore, although many years have passed, he can still remember the beautiful and quiet little girl in the General's Mansion.

She nodded like a chick pecking rice, and her voice was thin and childish, "Well, it's me ......"

Yang Yong let go of his hand, and saw that his snow-white neck was pinched out by him, he looked at her apologetically, and said in a soft voice, "Are you waiting in the alley late at night for me?" ”
