Chapter VIII
"This Dongxun is too cruel and ambitious, and in my opinion, it is far inferior to the Xixun, who is famous for his literary talents and has a calm temperament. So I contacted many forces to put pressure on it, and Concubine Xun also thought that Xixun should be the emperor, so Dongxun had to give in. ”
"But now, you're not blind. ”
"Hey, that's all because of Linling. Su Lili's eyes darkened, and he suddenly looked at the teacup on the table. But then he went on to say: "After Xixun ascended to the throne, he faced various pressures for a period of time, other countries pressed invasions, civil strife, and famine, and Lin Ling was found by him to die inexplicably in a pavilion in the palace. Speaking of this, Su Xianli couldn't hold back any longer, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his cuffs, and said: "Xixun's temperament has changed greatly since then, and he thinks that he can buy an elixir from a big country to save Linling, so he increased his taxes. ”
At this time, Yu Candle also understood that in a high-pressure environment, the death of a loved one was undoubtedly a fatal blow, but at this time, Su Xianli asked Yu Candle: "By the way, who was the woman in the palace yesterday?" Yu Candle recalled that there was only one woman at that time, Zhuang Yuyue, and replied: "That's the daughter of the city lord, what's wrong?"
Su Lili sighed and said, "He really looks like Linling!"
"Old Su, what do you think we should do now?"
Su Xianli pondered for a while and said: "There must be a reason why Dongxun transferred troops here this time, and I also have a friendship with the commander of the army, so I may be able to persuade him." ”
"When will you go?"
"Don't look for it, they're already here. ”
"Huh?" Yu Candle tried to explore with his senses, only to feel that there was a small army in the forest encamped, and suddenly an old but strong voice sounded in Candle's mind, "Who are you?" A powerful energy emanated, Yu Candle seemed to be targeted by a fierce tiger, but Yu Candle was not to be outdone, and fought back with a more pure and powerful energy.
"Interesting. The voice sounded again, and Yu Candle could feel that the owner of the voice was hurrying towards here. After a while, a man flew in directly through the window.
He was dressed in civilian clothes, but his face had a murderous aura left by the sand. As soon as he saw Su Xianli, he said in surprise: "Yo, old Su, why are you here?" but then looked at Yu Candle and asked with a serious expression: "Was it you just now?" Yu Candle replied very briskly, "That's right." ”
Su Xianli sensed that something was not quite right in the atmosphere, so he asked the man: "Lao Cheng, did you bring this soldier?" "Old Su, I know what you mean, ah, are you stupid when you say this emperor? This soldier is an important force in the border pass, and he transferred us over, attacked such a small village, and resigned you, this little calf was pushed to the top by you with great effort. The man said indignantly.
Yu Candle also realized at this time that these two should be old acquaintances.
Su Xianli lowered his head and was silent for a while and asked, "Do you really plan to slaughter?" "Hey, old Su, I know how to kill, but this understanding of killing and liking killing are two different things, this time I plan to catch that bastard who is dead and withdraw the army." ”
Yu Zhu didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and asked, "What bastard?"
"What bastard? Of course, it's the bastard who killed Liu Ling. I have an explanation for arresting him. ”
The scene seemed a little embarrassing all of a sudden, and Yu Zhu also knew that this was not a good stubble, so he asked, "What do you call Your Excellency?"
The man looked surprised instead, "Boy, you don't even know the old man?" Hear clearly, the old man's name is Cheng Huai, the commander of the Daoyun Soldiers, in addition..." Cheng Huai looked at Yu Candle and asked Su Xianli, "It can't be him, right?"
Oops, I'm still seeing this old thing. So Yu Zhu simply didn't pretend, "That's right, it's me." Cheng Huai looked at Yu Zhu again, with a sneering expression: "Old Su, how terrible is the future life! ”
However, at this time, something directly smashed through the window and the surrounding wall, and flew in, sawdust and confetti blurred the field of vision at once, and Yu Zhu only saw a shadow flying towards him, and was immediately knocked to the ground.
Yu Candle was dizzy in front of his eyes, and he only felt that something was pressing on him, and the pressure on his chest was even more obvious. It seems to be a person? Yu Candle touched the man's waist with both hands, why was he still naked?
"Wen'er, why are you?" Yu Zhu heard Cheng Huai's anxious voice, and he moved out from the side, blinking his eyes to see what was in front of him.
Looking at the person, she was a short-haired woman with a good figure, and the reason why she touched the place was naked was because she was wearing a light battle armor, but not on her waist, which was very similar to the style of a female warrior in the Western Regions.
Cheng Huai seemed to be in a hurry and called her from the side. Su Lili was so frightened that he fell off the chair, and he was trying to stand up by holding on to the table. Yu Zhu hurriedly went over to help him, Su Lili held the table, supported his forehead, and closed his eyes for a while to settle down.
"Wen'er, are you awake!!" Cheng Huai, a big man, showed a child-like surprise this time. The woman's eyes opened a slit, and when she saw Cheng Huai, her eyes suddenly opened, grabbed Cheng Huai's collar, and said, "Dad, there is a blue bird to pass the book." "You don't have to be in such a hurry if you have a book. "That's... The blue bird was covered in blood. ”
Cheng Huai's expression suddenly became serious when he heard this, and he and the woman disappeared in an instant. Yu Candle was surprised by his speed.
But think about what the woman said just now, the blue bird was covered in blood, indicating that the messenger was in a very dangerous situation. So Yu Candle immediately asked Su Xianli: "Where did this blue bird biography come from?" Su Xianli replied: "This... The Blue Bird Biography is a royal item, but there has been a change in the palace. Yu Candle, take me to the barracks. ”
The barracks were camped in the woods outside the city, and when they reached the gate, two soldiers stopped them. "What are you doing?" asked one of them. "I want to see Cheng Huai. Yu Zhu said, and kept looking inside.
"Hey, what do you see, General Xiang is something you can see, take your old man home quickly, or don't blame me for being unkind." ”
"You're welcome?" When Yu Zhu heard this, he couldn't help but laugh as if he had heard a joke, and said while laughing: "I'm here today to see how you're welcome." ”
The man brandished the ring-headed broadsword in his hand and slashed at Yu Candle, who sensed that he had a certain amount of skill.
"Old Su, stand back. Later, I will know the strength of this sword cloud soldier. After Yu Zhu finished speaking, he attached his hands to the Wuheng Fire, and directly grabbed the blade, wanting to use the Wuheng Fire to erode the blade, but as soon as he touched it, he noticed that something was wrong.
