The martial arts of Xiao Feng, Xu Zhu, and Duan Yu have long been unparalleled in the world, especially since Xiao Feng and Murong Fu have been friends for ten years, and they know everything about his words and deeds. Therefore, before the gunshots rang out, the three of them had already fled, and in the blink of an eye, they climbed out of the courtyard wall of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

However, the head of the Great Song Dynasty was attacked and assassinated, what a big case?

The three escaped from the Murong Mansion on the front foot, and the Kaifeng Mansion on the back foot had already ordered martial law to hunt down the assassins throughout the city. For a time, there were rumors in Bianjing City, and the grass and trees were all soldiers. As a result, Xiao Feng and the other three people were immediately struggling in the capital, and no one in the inn dared to take them in, except for the six gates.

The residence of Zhuge Zheng, the Great Commander of the Six Gates, is located near the Baoci'en Temple to the west of the Imperial Palace, and because the surrounding area is full of high-ranking officials' mansions, the officials of Kaifeng Mansion are also very polite when they come here to search for assassins. It is absolutely impossible to enter the house, and you can complete the task if you can drink a cup of tea in the side hall and say two sentences of instructions from the steward. As a result, the steward of Zhuge Mansion naturally found out a lot of news.

Hearing that the steward reported that Murong Fu was also injured, Zhuge Zheng's face immediately sank, and he asked Xiao Feng: "What's the matter?" Why was Murong also injured? ”

Xiao Feng turned his head to look at Duan Yu, who was also shot in the arm and was being helped by the doctor in Zhuge Mansion to get the bullet, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly. Although Xiao Feng and the other three had high martial arts, the stray bullet of the flintlock pistol also hit Duan Yu's arm and bruised Xiao Feng's waist. Only Xuzhu escaped with the peerless internal strength of Wuyazi, Tianshan Tongmao, and Li Qiushui.

Zhuge Zheng and I are so shrewd, I have vaguely guessed the inside / story with just this glance, and immediately sneered and brushed away.

"Brother Zhuge !" Seeing that even Zhuge Zheng and I were about to turn his face, Xiao Feng immediately got up and shouted. "I'm not here to stir up disputes."

"You think you'll be able to settle the dispute?" Zhuge Zheng, I couldn't help but turn my head and scold. "This is a dispute between the Great Song Dynasty and Dali, is it himself or Da Liao that Brother Xiao is sandwiched in it?"

When it came to state affairs, Duan Yu was also full of resentment, and shouted loudly at the moment: "My Dali State Affairs Song has always been loyal, but Murong Fu used treacherous means to rob me of Dali, which is hateful and contemptible!" ”

Duan Yu's scholarly words, Zhuge Zheng, I really disdained it, and only looked at Xiao Feng with a smile and said, "What is the opinion of the king of the Southern Courtyard?" ”

Xiao Feng was silent for a while, and finally replied in a deep voice: "There is no morality in politics itself, only interests. ”

If Xiao Feng has learned anything in the four years since he left Song Tu, then this is his biggest gain in the Daliao officialdom. Even if they once went hand in hand with deep affection, once one side went into decline, the other side would not hesitate to annex its territory and strengthen itself. This is still the case between the two countries that were once equally powerful, not to mention that Dali was originally a foreign domain of the Great Song Dynasty? Although Dali has been loyal for generations, it cannot reach the land of Nanzhao that it occupies, which is the homeland of China. The so-called side of the couch does not allow others to sleep soundly, and now how can the Great Song Zhongxing not take it back?

Zhuge Zheng smiled a little at this time, and replied in a low voice: "If you can think so, Akashi should also be very comforted." ”

Duan Yu was shocked, and said in a lost voice: "Big brother, even you think so?" ”

Duan Yu has been influenced by Confucianism since he was a child, and he only knows that loyalty to the monarch is a big thing. To put it simply, the small country and the widows hug the thighs of the Great Song Dynasty with loyalty, and the Great Song Dynasty must also repay his younger brothers with benevolence and righteousness. However, this time, the Great Song Dynasty privately detained Duan Zhengchun and made a big fuss to seize the land of Dali, and Duan Yu deeply hated Murong Fu for acting viciously and treacherously, and did everything to make meritorious contributions. But Dali's hundred officials only complained that Duan Zhengchun acted inconsiderately, which affected Dali. When Duan Yu came to the Great Song Dynasty to see Murong Fu, Murong Fu was even more arrogant and had no shame about what he had done. All of the above are completely different from the values that Duan Yu has accepted for more than 20 years, and Duan Yu is at a loss.

Xiao Feng sighed when he saw Duan Yu's unbelievable face, how similar is Duan Yu's dazed current situation to the situation when he was calculated by Empress Xiao? Xiao Feng knew that it was very difficult for Duan Yu to understand politics for a while, so he comforted him softly: "Third brother, it is important for you to treat your injuries. As he spoke, he turned his head to Zhuge Zheng and said. Brother Zhuge take a step to speak. ”

Zhuge Zheng glanced at Duan Yu, and finally obediently went to the side hall with Xiao Feng. The two sat down in the side hall, and Xiao Feng sighed and said, "I don't want to interfere in the dispute between the Great Song Dynasty and Dali. It's just that last night my third brother's two sisters went to Murong Mansion, and there was no news. I don't know what the Dali Duan clan's ability to govern the country is, but the Dali Duan clan's family martial arts are indeed unique. Murong is a person who does great things, so why should he be embarrassed by two nobodies? ”

Zhuge is deaf and clear-sighted, Xiao Feng's voice fell, and he immediately understood. "So, this assassination was originally from last night, and today you are going to the Prime Minister's Mansion to ask for someone?"

Xiao Feng was silent for a long time, and finally nodded gently.

Zhuge Zheng smiled at me. "I think it's the new hatred and old hatred of the emperor that came to my heart, and I didn't agree with Akashi......" halfway through the words, he shook his head categorically, word by word. Wrong! It's not Duan Yu who did it with Akashi, it's you! Xiao Feng! "Zhuge Zheng and I know Murong Fu, Duan Yu alone will never provoke him like this, only Xiao Feng can make him lose his way.

"It's indeed me......" Xiao Feng said with difficulty, thinking of Murong Fu's last order, his heart was even more barren. …… Murong and I, after all, are different from the past. ”

This time, Zhuge Zheng didn't talk to me again. I saw him look down at the tea on the table for a while, and said for a long time: "Brother Xiao, go back to Daliao!" If I go back this time, I won't come to Da Song again. ”

Xiao Feng was also silent, and replied after a long time: "Brother Zhuge , even if the family and the country are the most important in the world, you should be able to tolerate the warmth and coldness of people." If Brother Zhuge is detained for no reason, and his sister's life and death are unknown, can you sit idly by? ”

"I can't." Zhuge Zheng replied calmly, "Brother Ran, has Brother Xiao ever thought about why Mingshi didn't report to Kaifeng Mansion last night, but today he wants to report to Kaifeng Mansion to arrest the assassin?" "Without waiting for Xiao Feng to answer, Zhuge Zheng and I said bluntly again." Because of you! Brother Xiao, do you remember that Akashi was your sworn brother? ”

"I remember......" Xiao Feng felt sour in his heart, and couldn't help muttering softly. I'm afraid that Murong doesn't want to remember anymore. ”

Zhuge Zheng, when I saw Xiao Feng's sad appearance, he also sighed. "I don't want to ask more about today's events, I'm afraid that if I ask too much, I'll feel sorry for Akashi. But what happened back then, is Brother Xiao willing to listen to it now? ”

"Back then?" Xiao Fengfang repeated the two words in surprise, and instantly understood the meaning of Zhuge Zheng's words, and his thick eyebrows twisted. "Brother Zhuge please speak."

"After the martial arts conference, Akashi went to see you, and when he came back, he was seriously injured......

"What did you say?" Zhuge Zheng and I have just started, and Xiao Feng has been shocked. "How could he get hurt? That day, Murong ...... "Xiao Feng was just about to mention Murong Bo, and instantly remembered Zhuge Zheng's identity again, and hurriedly bit the head of the conversation and forcibly changed his mouth. "Brother Zhuge , please continue."

Zhuge Zhengi glanced at Xiao Feng meaningfully, and said: "After that, Akashi was entangled in official business, and he never had time to recuperate, and he could no longer support it when he was on the New Year, so he had to return to Yanziwu to recuperate. After the New Year's Day, Master Ma Juan went to Gusu to join Akashi. Who knew that Mingshi had been seriously ill and in a coma for more than half a month, and he had been thinking about Yanmen Pass when he was asleep. Since then, Ma-sama has never mentioned you in front of Akashi. ”

Zhuge Zheng's understatement really had an earth-shattering effect in Xiao Feng's ears, and I saw that his hands were trembling and his face was pale, and he said incoherently: "The fifteenth day of the first lunar month...... The fifteenth day of the first lunar month...... Murong ...... Is he sick? The sick place can't come to Yanmen Pass at all? ”

Zhuge Zheng didn't answer, but said slowly: "Over the years, Akashi's body has been getting worse day by day, the official family is not Mingjun, and the Great Song Dynasty Zhongxing is struggling. Brother Xiao, you should think of the past and allow him to live a few more years! ”

"How so?" As soon as Zhuge Zheng's last sentence landed, Xiao Feng's whole person stood up suddenly. Thinking back to when Fang Cai fought with Murong Fu, his martial arts had regressed a lot, and Xiao Feng had already believed Zhuge Zheng's words, and he was immediately worried. "How can this be ......"

Without waiting for Zhuge to answer, the steward of Zhuge Mansion walked in and said in a low voice: "My lord, there is news from Kaifeng Mansion that the assassin has been arrested and martial law has been lifted. ”

At this time, only three hours had passed since Kaifeng Prefecture ordered the entire city to hunt down the Assassins.

Zhuge Zheng sighed again when I heard this, and said in a low voice: "It's not bad to end it like this." "The real assassin is still the guest of honor in Zhuge Mansion, and the lifting of martial law in Kaifeng Mansion is obviously Murong Fu's intention. This means: This matter, Murong Fu, endure it!

Xiao Feng obviously understood this truth, but he was not sure whether Murong Fu endured this tone for state affairs or personal feelings? Thinking of what Zhuge Zheng said just now, Xiao Feng was even more confused, and after enduring it and enduring it, he couldn't help but tentatively say: "Then the swallow dock ......"

"Brother Xiao," unexpectedly, without waiting for Xiao Feng to speak, Zhuge Zheng and I have already cut it out. "Everything that this official should know has been told to you. As for other things, I don't want to know about it yet! Brother Xiao should take your two sworn brothers and leave as soon as possible. "Zhuge Zheng is in charge of the six gates, and he is the biggest spy leader in the Great Song Dynasty, if the royal family learns that he has dealings with foreign races, this career will come to an end.

Xiao Feng saw that Zhuge was resolute and resolute, and immediately understood his position, and immediately hugged his fists and said: "Thank you!" And he hurried away. He really has too many doubts in his heart to find out the truth.

Sending away Yin Lutao of Kaifeng Mansion who came to visit, Murong Fu couldn't help but sigh lightly at Abi. "Is that what you want? Go drink the medicine! "It turned out that the lifting of martial law in Kaifeng Mansion was actually the result of Abi's hard work.

Abi nodded tearfully and said softly: "Son, don't embarrass yourself. ”

Murong Fu shook his head slightly and said in a low voice, "It's true that I was impulsive...... Dali has not yet been attached, and Duan Yu can't move him yet. Abi, go and let go of the four female guests who visited last night! After Murong Fu said these two words, he also got up and went back to the room. The injuries on his body are actually worse than Abi's, and if he wants to work normally tomorrow, he has to rest.

However, not long after Murong Fu returned to the room, Xue Muhua walked in with a bowl of soup and medicine, and said with a smile: "Although Abi is injured, the adult's medicine can't be drunk. ”

"Thank you, Dr. Xue." Xue Muhua has always been courteous in Murong Mansion, and when Murong Fu saw that he was doing that little thing in person today, he hurriedly stepped forward to take the medicine bowl and drank the soup and medicine happily.

Even if Murong Fu drank the medicine, Xue Muhua was not in a hurry to leave, but sat down beside him, and said earnestly: "Adults are depressed and unfavorable to injuries, so you might as well talk about it to solve it." Xue pointed to the day of the oath of heaven, what the adults said today came out of the mouth of the adults and into the ears of Xue, and no third person in the world knew! ”

Murong Fu only shook his head and smiled bitterly when he heard this, what happened today was really a double torture of body and mind for him, so that he was still a little gasping when he spoke. "It's just a little old grudge caused by being young and frivolous, which makes Dr. Xue laugh."

"My lord is also in his prime now!" Xue Muhua immediately smiled. However, as soon as these words fell, Xue Muhua himself was slightly stunned. It has been four years since he was invited to be Murong Fu's personal doctor in the eighth year of Yuan You. After four years of getting along day and night, Xue Muhua is used to seeing Murong Fu's wise and spicy skills in government affairs. In addition to his admiration, he inevitably often had an illusion, as if the Murong Fu in front of him was not a young man who was only thirty years old, but an old man who had gone through the vicissitudes of life and seen through the world.

To this day, Murong Fu was so enraged by Xiao Feng that he had a nervous breakdown, and said the words "lust/lust" incoherently. Xue Muhua, a miracle doctor who is nearly fifty years old, has practiced medicine for half his life, and has seen countless strange things, suddenly realized that the contradiction between Murong Fu and Xiao Feng has never been as simple as he once thought. Looking at Murong Fu's current languishing but still self-supporting appearance, Xue Muhua couldn't help but feel distressed before he could take care of his surprise.

"My lord, it's not bad to be young and frivolous......" I saw Xue Muhua ponder for a moment, and finally persuaded in a low voice. In life, suffering is better than happiness. When you can perfect yourself, you will fulfill yourself! ”

Murong Fu is such a shrewd and powerful person, how can Xue Muhua's two secretive words be hidden from his ears and eyes? He only glanced at Xue Muhua casually, and immediately understood that the other party had guessed his entanglement with Xiao Feng. Xiaoyaomen people have always been strange, and it is not very surprising that Xue Muhua can have such persuasive words, and Murong Fu is not very surprised. I saw that he was silent for a while, and Fang replied in a low voice: "I just want to fulfill myself...... I wanted to kill him. ”

Murong Fu's words were low and soft, and his tone was careless, but the killing intent oozing out of it made Xue Muhua's cold qi shiver and fearful, and he couldn't answer anymore.

And Murong Fu obviously didn't need Xue Muhua's answer, he had already fallen into deep thought.

Why is it Xiao Feng?

A long time ago, Murong Fu had asked himself this question. If you say that heroes are heroic, there is also a kind of teacher Tao and Zongze; If you say that you are obedient, there are also Abi and Wang Yuyan; If you are like-minded, there are Zhuge Xiaohua, Su Shi, Su Mai, Qin Guan and so on. So, why is it Xiao Feng?

He asked himself, like a scalpel, calm and cruel, completely dissecting the most secret thoughts in his heart with the mentality of a spectator.

Perhaps, it is because he has never lacked the most basic sense of security in his feelings. Needless to say, what happened in his previous life had completely destroyed his trust in his feelings. But at the same time, his mother's fiery and crazy love that could sacrifice a qiē shocked him. Let him clearly realize that all the feelings in this world, family affection and friendship, can be plural and can be shared. Only love can always be singular and can only be monopolized. This kind of feeling scared him, but he ...... One has to envy.

chose Xiao Feng not because of how free, heroic, and attractive he was, but simply because of his generosity, which made Murong Fu feel that he was the singular and the only difference. Over the years, Murong Fu has lost count of how many times he has dreamed of the past, from the time Xiao Feng accompanied him to Xiping to take up his post, to the abrupt end of the Hundred Flowers Festival held by the Beggar Gang in Luoyang. It was the happiest time of his life, even if it was just because he thought he was the only one. Such an illusion made him get carried away and make a foolish move, he let go of Ah Zi, ran away from Xiao Yuanshan, and tried to compete for the status of Xuzhu and Duan Yu in Xiao Feng's heart...... How ridiculous?

It was like a gamble between him and Xiao Feng, Xiao Feng had strong capital and superb gambling skills, while he was overstretched and his skills were lame. As is the case in every casino, the winners are always at ease, while the losers are hysterical. Sending Azhu away and attaching a rich dowry, that was his last dignity. He has never tasted the sweetness of love, nor does he know the depth of love, but he does understand the madness and viciousness of love. It is better to fulfill a pair of lovers than to turn yourself into a murderer like a mother.

Murong Fu knew that he could bear the relationship between Xiao Feng and Azhu Immortal, but he was a stranger to him. He was like a passing cloud, and disappeared into Xiao Feng's life from then on. Twenty or thirty years later, he will casually mention his name in small talk with his children and grandchildren. As long as it's not scolding, that's enough.

Unfortunately, Azhu still died, under the flintlock pistol.

What should you do if someone you love deeply and hates you deeply?

Murong Fu no longer had time to question the paradox and absurdity of fate, especially when he clearly realized that a hero like Xiao Feng stood up to the sky and was worthy of it, and he was afraid that he would not even hate it. How did Xiao Fengfeng do it? He completely erased his existence from his life, and there was no trace of it. Therefore, give up your face and dignity, and leave something behind, which can be regarded as an explanation for yourself.

- Don't worry about thirty-seven twenty-one, go to sleep first! It can't be worse than it is now, anyway.

This is Murong Fu's answer.

But it turns out that it can really be worse than now!

The whole thing, Xiao Feng can feel disgusting, hateful, and disdainful, anything, but it can't be aftertaste, nostalgia, and love! What is this? What is Azhu? Himself, what is it?

Those who once had light would go crazy if they were dragged into a dark hell. But if a person who is accustomed to the darkness of hell, once he is allowed to see the sun, he will only, and can only destroy it!

"I don't want to be chosen again...... This time, I'm going to pick it myself. Murong Fu muttered to himself almost distractedly, "I choose...... Abandon! ”

Human nature is clear. Involving the border, all kinds of things are delusional. If you have a wrong thought, you will be in hell.
