Shu Yanhua didn't know at all that the leader and the Chu family had deliberately tested Zhou Tingyu for her, and they ran for a long time, and they were comfortable. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

By noon, the group was ready to return.

Unlike when they came, the way back turned a corner, and Shu Yanhua and Zhou Tingyu were puzzled until they saw a burned village.

The remnants of the wall are broken, and there are still a large dark red traces on the earthy yellow brick wall, which is deserted.

"This is the village where Juju had an accident, and I brought her to hunt near here, originally wanting to come to this village to borrow a little rice after hunting......"

Chu Shi looked at the village, and could still recall the picture of Juju being killed by the Turks with a knife in her mind, she closed her eyes with a painful expression, it was she who was sorry for Juju, who was a mother, she didn't protect her, and it was she who let her not see the scenery of this world, so she passed away.

The leader rode a horse and stood beside the Chu family, stretched out his hand to hold her hand tightly, and comforted her: "Madam, don't blame yourself, the orange is in the spirit of the sky, and I won't want you to go back to the way before." ”

There was an atmosphere of sadness in the team, these people had grown up watching the oranges since they were children, and the experience of that day, they still remember it vividly, not only the oranges, but even the people in the village were killed, if they didn't hear the movement, it would come quickly, and even the Chu clan would not be able to save it.

It was the first time for Zhou Tingyu to face such a scene, looking at this ruined village, looking at the ashes, half-burned houses, there was a very uncomfortable and heart-wrenching feeling.

He is the prince of Great Xia, these villagers are the people of Great Xia, when he always thought that Great Xia was so strong that no one could defeat him, there was already a thief who began to sneak into his house to steal things, and when he was discovered, he raised a butcher's knife, and turned from a thief to a bandit.

"Your Highness, do you know how many villagers there used to be here?" The leader asked lightly, and without waiting for Zhou Tingyu to answer, he continued to take care of himself, "There are fifty-six households in total, three hundred and sixty-seven people. ”

The leader pointed to the houses, "Only twenty-two Turks came that day, and they slaughtered one hundred and sixteen of the villagers of this village, half of whom were young men. ”

"Even if we kill all the Turks who come to invade, we won't be able to get back the lives of these people."

The leader turned his head to look at Zhou Tingyu, "Your Highness, do you know how much a life of our Great Xia people is worth?" ”

Zhou Tingyu didn't speak, just looked at the leader quietly.

The leader smiled coldly, and smiled a little hideously, "One life of a Great Xia person will cost at least ten lives of Turkic people to pay for it, those things raised by bitches!" ”

The leader stretched out his hands and flipped them left and right, "Your Highness, I have hundreds of Turkic lives on my hands, but it is not enough, over the years, more than three hundred people have died because of the Turks, you say, hundreds of Turks, how can it be enough to compensate?" ”

Zhou Tingyu looked at the village and said coldly: "Of course it's not enough to compensate!" ”

If you kill the people of Great Xia, you will have to pay for it with blood!

The leader looked at Zhou Tingyu's reaction, and understood in his heart that the fifth prince, who was favored by Emperor Chengde in the current dynasty, was interested.

The temptations of the Turks over the years, the frontier generals know, and also sent cavalry to sweep the Turks, but unfortunately the effect is not great, the Turks are a nomadic people, often migrate with the pasture, he believes that Emperor Chengde knows what is happening in the frontier, and also knows that as an emperor, he has his thoughts.

However, his daughter, so many people in the frontier, all died in the hands of the Turks, and he must avenge this revenge.

The lives of more than a hundred Turks are not enough to compensate!

Since by chance, when the five princes of the dynasty came here, how could he miss this opportunity? The princes who can go to the court and study the political council should not be underestimated.

He brought Zhou Tingyu here today to plant a seed in his heart, as for whether the seed will sprout in the future, whether it can grow up, and what it will become, he doesn't know.

Everyone dismounted, bowed silently, and beat their horses back to the city.

Back in the city, the leader also took Zhou Tingyu and Shu Yanhua to see the trading house of the Furui caravan.

After returning to Xu's house, after lunch, the leader asked Zhou Tingyu and Shu Yanhua to talk.

"Your Highness, I'm going to send you back." As soon as the leader spoke, the content of his words was beyond the expectations of the two.

Now that his wife's illness had been cured, and the two had stayed on the frontier for several more days, it was time to send them back.

The two glanced at each other, and Zhou Tingyu asked, "You let us go?" ”

The leader asked, "Why, you don't want to go home?" If you want to stay here, I would love to do so. ”

Zhou Tingyu shrugged, "No, of course we're going home, how do you want to send us back?" ”

The leader knocked on the table and said, "How did you get here, we will send you back." ”

According to the leader's plan, he sent someone to escort the two back to Shangjing, firstly, because he had been out for two months, he needed to stay in the frontier to deal with the accumulated matters, and secondly, the Chu clan was already sober, and he was not worried about the physical condition of the Chu clan, so he had to stay and watch all this personally.

Zhou Tingyu glanced at Shu Yanhua, paused, and said, "Now the imperial court is still tracking us." ”

The imperial court is still investigating, if the leader sends someone to send them back, it will definitely be impossible to hide along the way, after all, if they are still hiding on the way back, if they are accidentally found out, it will be a lot of trouble, even if these people are responsible for escorting them back, they will be interrogated - since they have not done anything wrong, why do they still hide the identities of Zhou Tingyu and Shu Yanhua?

And if they are escorted back openly, Zhou Tingyu believes that with his father's ability, he will definitely be able to find out the head of the leader in the end.

Don't look at the fact that the imperial court can't find the two of them now, one day they can find clues, they have existed, and there will always be traces, not to mention that Shu Yanhua has also left clues in Xiangyang County.

Regardless of whether the boss is Shu Yanhua's cousin-in-law or not, as far as Zhou Tingyu himself is concerned, it is a fact that they saved him under the shock, and it is also a fact that they treated each other politely along the way, and when he was in the city, he saw those people in the city, and they were very respectful and polite to the leader, and the leader had a good reputation in Hanoi County and was well known.

A person who said that he was good, he might still be a liar, but everyone he met behaved like this, and his words and deeds were mixed with some information about the Turks, and even the officers and soldiers patrolling the streets were polite to the leader, and it seemed that what the leader said was that he had the lives of the Turks on his hands.

With this, Zhou Tingyu didn't want anything to happen to the leader, and those who could protect the people in the frontier and kill the Turks regardless of their own safety were worthy of his respect.

He didn't want anything to happen to the leader, at least not if his father found out and sent out.

He said that if he didn't pursue the matter, he wouldn't put the leader in danger. (To be continued.) )
