Chapter 318: The Dust Falls

, Daqin's I am a child!

Zhang Ao, Ji Han didn't dare to do it easily, until the sound of horses' hooves sounded more and more crisply, and two men on horseback galloped from afar, stopping beside them with two empty horses.

"Alas, Mr. Zifang is right, this king has been hiding for long enough. Today it will be revealed. "Negative and Ren Ni were helped on the horse, "But you are really unlucky, this king doesn't want to delay any longer, just wait and fight." ”

Zhang Ao and Ji Han were about to catch up, and hundreds of knights swooped up in order to cover the retreat.

Xiang is not big, there are many people on both sides, and it is difficult for the Hengshan soldiers as soldiers to use a long-term formation, so they can only rely on a few armed forces to fight.

Fighting alone, due to the narrow terrain, he was repeatedly restrained and unable to exert his true strength. The knights of unknown origin can fight with the terrain, relying on the simple door panels, sparing their bodies to assassinate, and flying up to the house from time to time, surprisingly sneak attacking. provoked the Hengshan soldiers to tense their nerves against the enemy.

Zhang Ao, Ji Han dealt with the chivalrous man with strange moves in front of him, although it was more than enough, but he had no leisure to take care of others.

The sound of blades colliding resounded between the alleys, and the restrained Hengshan soldiers were stabbed after a moment's while, and blood was spilled on the ground. Under the severe pain, he regained his spirits and was about to fight back but was avoided from attacking.

A blow missed, and the chivalrous counterattack arrived, and the white light flashed in front of him, and the strength in Hengshan Bing's body gradually dissipated and fell to the ground.

"Damn it!"

Ji Han scolded, and was angry that he escaped from the burden, and swung his sword violently, and the knight in front of him hurriedly saw the horizontal sword blocking. An irresistible force that struck the knight's sword into his chest.

"If the king had come in person, I'm afraid this group of people would have already become two halves!"

Zhang Ao squinted his eyes and noticed the enemy's loopholes, and after a tentative confrontation, he grabbed the flaw and stabbed him to death.

Rao is two of them tried their best, but the enemy they killed was not as good as the loss of the Hengshan soldiers, and gradually the disparity in strength was huge. The knights have used strange cooperation to cut down a piece of Hengshan soldiers.

"Wu Rui is not a faint king, his city guards should be here." Zhang Liangnian, who was watching the situation, chattered.

Before the words fell, the footsteps outside the vertical and horizontal alley sounded, and a dignified man led the Hengshan soldiers to arrive, and when he saw the situation like this, he took the lead in rushing into the formation.

It happened that most of the Hengshan soldiers were killed and wounded, and the men's soldiers surrounded and annihilated them from both directions. After a while, different wails rang out, and they had to cooperate with Zhang Ao and the others to kill all the knights, and blood stained the ground.

Ji Han raised his sword and fell, killing the last knight, and some of them couldn't react to the sudden change in the situation, and praised again and again, "It is worthy of the acropolis of the King of Hengshan, fast enough." ”

The man saluted slightly, "It's not the Acropolis below, it's the commander of the King of Hengshan." ”

"Need? Shake it up, Hua is harmless? The names of the Yue people are really weird. Ji Han muttered.

Su Wu smiled indifferently and asked, "Do you know who these people are and why they appear in the Six Cities?" ”

"These people are..."

"These remnants of Yingbu have a grudge against the King of Qin and the King of Hengshan. Seeing that the people on both sides passed this place, they ambushed them. Zhang Ao disguised.

Although he has great ambitions, the main enemy he attacks is Xiang Yu, and Zhang Ao doesn't want his identity to be known by too many people.

"Ambush?" There must be no doubt, "Chengdu Jun brought Hengshan soldiers here, and this group of people still dare to make a move easily?" ”

"Sort of." Zhang Liang echoed and smiled, "King Qin noticed the traces of this group of people yesterday, so he sent Chengdu Jun to lead troops to investigate, which can be called being forced to the end." ”

"That's right," nodded without thinking.

Zhang Ao chuckled at Zhang Liang gratefully.

You don't have to kick the corpse of the knight, "There are Lu Pheasant's people assassinating the soldiers of the Taihou in the front, and there are the soldiers of the king of Yingbu in the back, it is really not peaceful!" ”

"It doesn't matter, the king of Hengshan should return to Yicheng, and this chaotic place will be left to Taihou." Zhang Liang said with a smile.

"Hahaha, exactly!"

He laughed loudly, led his subordinates to carry the corpses of the soldiers, and dragged the remains of the knights away.

Ji Han was uneasy, "The remaining Hengshan soldiers still know the identity of the bearer, and it is useless to bother to hide this, Wu Rui will always know." ”

"What I just said is just to make it unreasonable." Zhang Liang explained, "This person is extraordinary, even if he knows about it and sees that we are in a hurry to conceal it, he can guess the deep meaning and will not leak the secret." ”

"Wu Rui will do the same." Zhang Ao smiled meaningfully at Zhang Liang, "Mr. Zifang's move is to help the king, but after drifting in many places, I found that the king is still worth running to?" ”

"Sort of." Zhang Liang sighed, "The previous three points, the people, the king, the en... King Qin can be regarded as worthy of it. ”

"Huh?" Ji Han frowned, "Where did En come from?" ”

Zhang Liang couldn't help but smile bitterly, "The family teacher helped Wei Wangbao to slaughter Qin and destroy Liang, how could he survive if he was someone else." The family teacher can return to the land safely, and he is considered a great favor. As an apprentice, helping King Qin is regarded as a reward. ”

"Even if you kill the Western Wei soldiers, Mr. Ziying doesn't care?" Zhang Ao asked.

Ji Han was trying to dissuade Zhang Ao from asking questions, but then stopped, and some things were better explained in advance, so as not to cause any discord in the future. Ji Han didn't dare to guarantee that the current Ziying would not kill Zhang Liang. After all, they have worked together under Liu Bang's account, and they don't want to see him die.

"In Xia Fei, it is all Confucian, the King of Qin has never killed Bashu, and he has been invaded and killed by the Western Wei Dynasty, which is not brutal." Zhang Liang replied.

"That's... What about him? After the two battles of the king, it is said that he changed as a different person. He will attack other countries one day, and it will inevitably be like Xiang Yu. Ji Han asked cautiously.

"If the minister can't pass the king, it's the minister's incompetence." Zhang Liang chuckled, looked up at the sky with remnant clouds, "I think I have the ability to make King Qin never kill indiscriminately." ”

......

Yesterday bloomed in the south and snow fell in the mountains in the north.

Ziying, Wu Rui, and Mao Ping stood on the top of the canyon, each with their own concerns.

Swimming across the mountain, the three of them did not smile, but all looked sad.

"When does the king think it would be better for me to set up a tomb for the princess?" Mao Ping asked.

Yesterday, Wu Rui was thorough in her heart, and she could only endure her grief to comfort Wu Rui. Today's Wu Rui is no longer the same as yesterday, Mao Ping doesn't have to endure it anymore, and the bitterness in her heart overflows all over her body.

"Clothed mounds?" Ziying frowned, "The princess's body must be retrieved no matter what!" The princess died in Jiangling, and Lu Pheasant came with the clothes she made after capturing Jiangling. If the ministers of Nanjun can't find the body, Lu Pheasant doesn't have to go back! ”

Although he hated Lu Pheasant and his party, Ziying's anger at the moment was not only due to hatred.

"Lu Pheasant came for the territory of Hengshan, if he found it, he would have used it to please the minister." Wu Rui shook her head, "Xu is daughter's life is hard, after being killed, she was in battle again, and her bones are gone..."

"Not necessarily!" Ziying analyzed, "The Lu clan captured Nanjun, bought the royal tomb that had always been at odds with Liu Bang, calculated the draft of the grain transportation to capture Nanyang, and cooperated with Fan Zeng to attack Qin... All kinds of important things need to be done. What's more, King Hengshan didn't want to be the king that day, and he was the king for the people, and soon he was not taken seriously by the world. I'm afraid that Lu Pheasant has never looked for it with all his heart. ”

"Heh...," Wu Rui covered his eyes and sighed, "Even if it is as the king expected, it is useless to threaten at this moment. If Lu Pheasant's ministers sent the corpse this time, wouldn't it be to inform me and others that the people of Nanjun were not willing to do so before? Cao Shen, Xiao He and the others would rather come here in person to ask for someone than return the body..."

Mao Ping clenched Wu Rui's hands, as sentimental as yesterday. Tears seem to be about to burst the embankment, but because the child is here, it is not easy to attack.

Although the child is in pain, he has never been able to empathize. I was still thinking about what Mei Kai and Lu Pheasant would plan to leave the princes of the Six Cities, and how the two of them should forge ahead after crusading against Yingbu...

Ziying shook her head violently, temporarily dispelling these thoughts, thinking about them at the moment couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

"Wu Aiqing can storm Nanyang County in the future, and the widow guarantees that Xiang Yu will not easily Hengshan!" Ziying opened his mouth and concealed the fact that Mei Kai would occupy the land of Jiujiang.

"No need." Wu Rui sighed, "Chen Shi doesn't want to see Yingbu's face again, Mei Kai also wants to attack Nanyang from Jiujiang on this trip, so leave this matter to him." ”

Leave it to someone else?!

Ziying was puzzled and looked at Wu Rui. Suddenly, I thought of a family affair of Wu Rui - Wu Rui's mother, surnamed Mei!

After the husband in front of him, after Gou Jian, he became a family after a hundred years.

"Heh..."Ziying sighed with emotion in his heart, killing, calculating, destroying the country, all kinds of hatred that outsiders seem to be unable to quench is no longer a big deal here in Wu Rui Meihong. The dust of the past and the future, and I don't know how many grievances will be buried...

The two are related, Ziying hesitated for a moment whether to inform Wu Rui of the war that Mei Hong encountered in the future, and then thought that Mei Hong really wanted to kill Wu Rui and claim the king yesterday, and instantly dispelled this idea.

"Everything is considered to have been brought on by him, so let him be killed by Xiang Yu's army." The child's heart said.

Wu Rui and the others finally couldn't help it, secretly crying, Ziying couldn't bear it, and turned his head to look aside.

Along the way, Ziying didn't hear Wu Rui mention the name of the mountain, and it seemed to be nameless.

Next to the Six Cities, the Nameless Mountain...

Seeing Wu Rui and the others like this, a later name appeared in my mind - "Dabie Mountain".

Its name is still called out by Li Bai himself, "The south of the mountain is splendid, the north of the mountain is snowy, and this mountain is very different from other mountains." ”

"Big Farewell?" Ziying muttered, "Today's events are really different..."

"Aiqing don't want to be like this anymore, the widow is now powerless to help Aiqing, but Mei Li can always help Aiqing avenge." Ziying persuaded.

"Thanks... Thank you, Your Majesty. Wu Rui wept and knelt down to wipe her tears.

"What is there to thank..."

Ziying smiled bitterly, and suddenly caught a glimpse of several murderous Baiyue soldiers under the mountain, carrying one person and hurrying up the mountain.

Half an hour later, several people rushed up the hill and threw the person they were carrying in front of Wu Rui.

The messenger was smashed to pieces, and his head was dizzy, but he did not say a word.

"Your Majesty! This man claimed to be sent by the British cloth and asked to see the king! Hengshan soldiers knelt on the ground and shouted.

"The people of Yingbu? Yingbu still dares to send someone to see this king?! ”

Wu Rui instantly lost his composure, raised his leg and kicked at the messenger, kicking him a few steps away from the place. Wu Rui was wrapped in anger and hurried to follow, kicking and kicking constantly.

The sound of the beating was not heard in his ears, and Mao Ping, who was weak and weak, did not avoid it at this moment, and looked at the tragic situation of the messenger with wide eyes, as if the person who was beaten was not the messenger, but Yingbu.

The messenger did not dodge or dodge until the corners of his mouth were bleeding, and he controlled the spasms of his body, and bent over his stomach like a shrimp, trembling in place.

Wu Rui's anger did not subside, "What is the matter with Yingbu sending you?" Do you want to ask this king to spare him?! Or did you send someone to see how miserable this king is now?! ”

"In... Down..."The messenger spat blood from his mouth, unable to answer in severe pain.

"Say!" Wu Rui yelled and threw in the kick.

In the past, Yingbu treated the envoys of other countries in the same way, and now his envoys are also treated like this, and Ziying suddenly feels a little ridiculous.

"Wu Aiqing stop, and listen to what he has to say." Ziying persuaded.

Wu Rui continued to kick a few times, holding back his anger, and he could not stop.

The messenger gasped for a long time, and his body trembled, "Your Majesty... Will... Madam... It's delivered..."

"Ma'am? Daughter? Where is she?! Wu Rui grabbed the messenger by the collar and forcibly pulled him off the ground, forcing him to look into his eyes.

"In... Outside the city..."

When the messenger finished speaking, he spat blood from his mouth, as if his internal organs had been ruptured, and he closed his eyes and lost his breath.

Wu Rui let go and kicked it down the valley with all his might, "The generals will listen to the order and follow this king... Go out of town to welcome the princess! ”

"No!!"

The sound of harmony sounded throughout the valley, Wu Rui didn't care about the child, and took Mao Ping to lead the army down the mountain.

Ziying also wanted to go with him and perform the monarch's ceremony. After thinking for a while, my heart tightened and I went down the mountain and went straight to the inn.

Zhang Ao and Ji Han have returned to the inn, and they are sitting on the edge of the bed with Zhang Liang smiling and talking, as if they are cut off from the undercurrent outside.

"Quick! Fast! Ziying pushed open the door and couldn't stop breathing, "Everyone, Aiqing quickly prepare the horse and go out of the city with the widow!" ”

"What does this mean, Your Majesty?" Ji Han was surprised, when Ji Bu came unexpectedly, he saw Ziying like this.

"It's too late to explain, the faster you go, the better!" Ziying clung to the door frame and said urgently.

Zhang Liang thought slightly, "I'm afraid Wu Rui is going to return to Hengshan, right?" ”

Ziying noticed that there was one more person in the house, and it was still Zhang Liang who had begged for many times but didn't get it!

"If you want to follow the widow, go out of the city together, otherwise you will stay in the six cities and die!" Ziying had no time to deal with the old grudge with Huang Shigong, and took the lead in leaving the house.

"It's really changed, it's so unkind." Zhang Liang smiled bitterly and followed Zhang Ao and the two together.

Zhaoping had been in the fields of Liucheng with the soldiers of Hengshan, and the horse he was driving when he came happened to be handed over to Zhang Liang.

The four of them galloped southward, and the cold wind and chill they carried were especially severe, and when they got out of the gate of the southern city, they dared to stop and rub their arms to keep warm.

Outside the city, Wu Rui's tens of thousands of troops were neatly arrayed, as far as the eye could see. In the city, the palace guards stood aside, and they also hurried out of the city, and the sound of gasping was not noticed.

Before the battle, Wu Rui and Mao Ping slapped next to the red coffin, crying.

"Phew... Is that... Is that the body of Wu Rui's daughter? Zhang Ao clutched his chest and asked.

"I don't know," Ziying replied, "supposedly... Sent by Yingbu, Wu Rui's daughter has been dead for a long time, if it is really her.... I'm afraid I'm already a little rotten in the Southland... When Wu Rui saw his body, he was afraid that he would have to return to Hengshan for burial for several days. ”

Zhang Liang nodded again and again, "Wu Rui... Can't wait, at this moment... Regardless of the side affairs, there is only one left in the city... Mei Kai Lu Pheasant... I'm afraid it's not good for King Qin. ”

Ji Han understood, but couldn't help but speak, "Mr. Zifang is frail, so there is no need to say much, his body is important." ”

Zhang Ao nodded in agreement, and Zhang Liang's wheezing frequency almost made people think that he was dying.

"Even if you go out of the city, it's not safe and sound." Ziying said, "Mei Kai and Lu Pheasant will definitely send someone to hunt them down, and the escapees have just begun." Wait for the widow to say goodbye to Wu Rui and go northwest quickly! ”

"No!"

The child rode his horse, and when he was a little closer to the coffin, he jumped off the horse and dismounted.

As he approached the two, he was once again infected by a heartfelt sadness.

Ziying secretly looked into the coffin, thinking that he saw a corpse that had festered, but the corpse was not only not extremely ugly, but was painted with heavy makeup for marriage, and the hands and face that exposed the clothes were surprisingly white, except for the knife wound on the neck that no longer bleeds.

"Yingbu! Yingbu deceived the king too much! Wu Rui raised her head and roared, turned to look at Ziying, like a bullied child complaining to her parents, "Your Majesty, this... That's exactly what... The little girl's makeup before she got married..."

"Your Majesty... After returning to Hengshan, we will send troops to Nanyang..."Mao Ping wiped her tears and said.

Ziying's heart was surging, and the blue tendons on his face were bursting up.

What is Yingbu's move? Return the lady to her mother's house, thinking that the two do not owe each other?!

Ziying regretted agreeing to form an alliance with such a person that day.

The surrounding generals are all murderous and fierce, if it weren't for the princess's burial in the ground, the purpose of their trip is Nanyang County, not Changsha County.

"Forget it... Don't let the little girl scare the king, close the coffin and go on the road. Wu Rui wiped her tears and reached out to push the coffin.

Ziying glanced at the coffin for a long time, and regarded it as saying goodbye to this miserable woman who had never met.

"Wait..."Ziying stopped Wu Rui, "Aiqing, there seems to be something in the princess's sleeve." ”

Wu Rui was stunned for a moment, pushed the coffin open, hurriedly and carefully removed her daughter's hands, and slowly took out the things in her sleeves, looking forward to what her daughter could leave them to miss in the future.

"Bamboo slips?!" Ziying frowned, guessing that this thing should have been left by Yingbu, not something of thought.

"Yingbu's words, the minister doesn't want to see it!"

Wu Rui threw down the bamboo slip, and Mao Ping had no intention of picking it up.

Ziying wanted to see what the killer of his wife had to say, and when he picked up the bamboo slips, he couldn't help but be gloomy. In a trance, I saw Yingbu sitting next to the iron-smelting furnace, with a pen engraved with bamboo slips.

"The son-in-law Yingbu presented it, and the lady was indeed killed by the son-in-law. In order to seize the land of Linjiang Gongao, in order to let Xiang Yu attack Hengshan. Today's big thing is not successful, the wife died in vain, and the son-in-law is heartbroken. However, the lady cannot be resurrected, and the son-in-law knew it as early as the time of the plan.

When Bashu attacked Linjiang, the son-in-law sent someone to secretly transport back the body of his wife and place it underground in Wancheng in order not to rot. The son-in-law sometimes has dreams, and the guilty person does not dare to see his face again. Mrs. should not want to stay with her son-in-law, but want to return to her parents, so she dreams.

And he will return the body today for the sake of his heart. The guilty people have no intention of fighting for the world, they only want to live in peace in the land of Nanyang, and if they have a life here, they can take it. Let Ai know the meaning of the son-in-law, so he also wrote to show you, I hope not to blame the son-in-law. His book does not need to be said goodbye, and there is no need to forgive. ”

Yingbu had no tears on his face, and handed it to one person casually, "Then go, send it to the six cities." ”】
