Chapter Ninety-Eight: Three Knives
"Leader, what are we going to do now?" There were two shadows standing on the back gable of the ancestral hall, and a man with a black scarf and a masked face hugged his fists at Gu Panzhi and asked. He is a centurion of those archers by the window, that is, the palace arrow guard "Dragon Scale Guard", he was originally Gu Panzhi's personal guard, Gu Panzhi was included in the secret guard by the emperor for some reason, he naturally became the centurion of the Dragon Scale Guard, because of this connection, he is also Gu Panzhi's more trusted subordinate.
frowned, pondered for a moment, Gu Songzhi said, "Wait, please tell Your Majesty!" After all, this Gu Songzhi is also a heavy minister...... Stalemate, don't act rashly! The voice trembled slightly, bringing out a little loneliness.
"But...... Your Majesty's ......" The centurion looked at Gu Songzhi with some concern, and stopped talking! In my heart, I was a little worthless for my "master". He used to be secretly happy that the "master" had won the trust of the emperor, and he was a servant of the master, and he could climb a high branch nearby when he was developed...... But now? He lives like a rat who can't see the light, and he has no more extravagant hopes!
Does the emperor trust the "master"? It seems to be like that, but it's just trust, he knows the ambition of his master, he wants to be the pillar of the country, and he wants to be the minister above the ten thousand people under that person...... In his opinion, his own master has not received anything!
"Go and keep an eye on ......," Gu Panzhi waved his hand a little tiredly and said in a deep voice. This family and this country can't make their own decisions, Gu Panzhi's eyes darkened, and his heart rose slightly depressed.
"Subordinates retire...... the centurion clenched his fists, and retreated to the back window where he was guarding, with a bow and arrow in hand.
With his hands behind his back, Gu Panzhi walked back to the Gu family at the front door. Looking at the indifference on the faces of the Gu clan, Gu Panzhi, who had no reason, felt a little cold in his heart, once his Gu family was his heaven, and every praise from his relatives would make him happy for several days, and then he ...... His Majesty the Emperor is a Bole who knows people, and he is willing to repay his kindness with his life.
But I don't know when he started to have no smile on his face anymore and his heart became warm, is it because he is asking more and more? Does His Majesty understand his needs? He is finally his, and no matter how much he wants, he will not have a disobedience to him, do you understand?
There was a bitter smile on the corner of his mouth, he didn't understand, he had already given birth to a mustard for himself! Otherwise, he would not have been forced to step down from the half-phase position of a scholar of "Wenyuan Pavilion"! He lost himself in his desperate climb to the top, and while he complained about His Majesty's alienation from him, he also forgot his iron-clad loyalty...... I understand but it's too late, I sigh, I think I'm going to be a "mouse" for the rest of my life, maybe until I die, right?
"Stand back...... Put down your arrows......" Mercy yelled at the archers at the window. She didn't want to think about Gu Songzhi, as long as she could get out, he would be a passerby to her, and maybe there would be no intersection in this life.
Only the guards of the Gu family retreated, and the archers on the window were still holding their arrows, not shooting or taking half a step back.
"Not from the Gu family?" Lian Lei's face changed continuously, and then returned to normal. She didn't want to mention the big hand hidden behind the scenes, but she had some guesses in her heart. Pulling the waist knife in the hand of the guard leader with one hand, Lian Lei took a few deep breaths, her courage was enough, and she slashed on Gu Songzhi's arm with all her strength, the strength was insufficient, the wound was not deep, but there were indeed blood stains overflowing.
was forced into this situation, and Lianlei's heart was unnaturally hardened a few degrees, forced to Liangshan? Aren't those heroes also forced out? You can only complain about your own hard life, have this kind of father!
Raising his hand to cover the wound on his arm, Gu Songzhi looked at his daughter holding the blade with some complexity, and his heart was also mixed, forcing his daughter to kill her father, and she was a little ashamed in anger......
"You have also seen it, I will give you ten breaths to consider, every breath I will cut this Gu Shangshu, don't think I don't dare, now is the first breath ......" After speaking, Lian Lei slashed Gu Shangshu's leg again......
"Second Breath...... My mother is sad and weak, and she will get disgusted eyes even when she walks in front of you, do you know my resentment? The cold light of the waist knife in his hand flashed, and a blood line shot out from the back of Gu Songzhi's hand covering the wound on his arm.
"Refund is non-refundable...... Third breath ......" Lian Lei collapsed a little, took a few breaths, and raised the waist knife in her hand again. The knife that fell from the "mother's ......" was held by Qingwu in her arms, and Lianlei looked down to see Qingwu gently shaking her head at herself.
"Mother, they won't retreat, but they shouldn't have gotten the master's order and don't dare to release the arrows, so they use him to block and go out, and when they get out of the Gu Mansion and there are more people on the street, the situation will be broken......"
"Ah......" Lianlei looked at the light dance in her arms, a little stunned! But she's right! But I'm about to take a step and I'm a little hesitant, can I really be safe? She can die, but she can't hurt half a cold hair with a light dance...... Handing Light Dance to the leader of the guards, Mercy instructed, "Protect her with your life...... Afterwards, I will thank you......"
"The little one who wants to protect Miss Wan Du ......" The leader of the guards was stunned, and looked at Lian Lei with a slight stunnedness, he could feel the trust in Lian Lei's eyes, hugged his fist, and took the light dance in his arms...... This is his duty, and he dare not have the extravagant hope of asking for merit and reward!
"Escort him forward...... "Lian Lei indifferently commanded the guard called Xiaoliu, and the knife in her hand was also on Gu Songzhi's neck on the other side without any scruples. The tension on his face also dissipated slightly, and a trace of calmness hung on Lianlei's lips, as if he was just a heinous bastard under his knife. She thinks that if he tries to hurt her own light dance, then he is a heinous sinner to her mercy.
Qingwu didn't expect it to be good, his group of archers would take a few steps back, the courtyard of the Gu Mansion was not deep, and soon Lian Lei could see the gate of the Gu Mansion from a distance, and there were many pedestrians on the street when they went out of the door, and their party would have a chance to live!
On the canopy of the tree, Wen Sixian's gaze always rested on Lianlei's body, and the little finger of her hand holding the knife was slightly curved, and it looked a little twisted and abrupt together with other long fingers. But in Wen Sixian's eyes, his eyes were darkened, the unbearable past many years ago jumped in his heart, he knew why he had a sense of déjà vu when he saw Lian Lei, why he had a heart-pounding feeling at first sight, and why he would be so sour and sarcastic when he liked Lianlei at Zhan Qingfeng......
