Chapter 226: Calluses
What is the identity of the girl in the room, Li Xinchen actually knew it when he heard Xiao Shilian's description, otherwise he would not have shown a look of surprise.
In history, Xiao Yue and his wife Queen Zhang only had two sons and one daughter in total, and this daughter was born in February, which was a bad omen, so Xiao Yue did not admit that this was his daughter, afraid that this girl would bring more bad luck to his already difficult survival.
It wasn't until the establishment of the Sui Dynasty that Yang Jian wanted to continue to deepen the relationship with Xiliang, so he offered to marry Xiao Yue's daughter for his second son Yang Guang, and Xiao Yue remembered that he still had such a daughter.
After the establishment of the Sui Dynasty, it already had an overwhelming advantage over Nan Chen, and the demand for Xiliang had reached the point of dispensability, which made Xiao Yue also anxious to establish a deeper marriage relationship with Yang Jian, so that even if the Sui Dynasty swallowed Xiliang, it could ensure that his life was worry-free, so this marriage Xiao Yue valued it very much.
However, although it was in line with the identity of the second prince at that time to marry the second prince at that time, Xiao Yue still weighed it, and specially asked someone to divinate the rest of the daughters, but only this concubine who should bring bad luck is supposed to bring bad luck, and the divination result is a great good, so in desperation, Xiao Yue can only marry this concubine to Yang Guang, which can be regarded as giving this daughter of bad luck to others.
And many years later, this concubine's mother was known as Empress Xiao, and became the most legendary woman who had experienced countless emperors and heroes in her life and the entire Sui and Tang dynasties.
Li Xinchen didn't look at Xiao Shilian, but turned around slowly, and through the half-hidden door, he could clearly see that the girl was still holding the apple in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking.
Maybe she didn't know that in the history that was not changed by Li Xinchen, she would marry in a few years, and she would start her own prosperous and noble life, and she would follow the ups and downs of her life.
Xiao Shilian glanced at Li Xinchen with a smile, tilted his head slightly, and found something: "Shizhong, what about this little girl, let's talk about it later, you see that there are really a lot of prisoners over there, let's hurry up and take a look." ”
Li Xinchen bowed slightly, and in the open space not far away, the Nan Chen soldiers were shouting loudly and scolding, so that those panicked Xiliang soldiers stood up.
The entire Jinan City is not very large, and the fire set by the Xiliang people themselves has been burned before, but it has blocked the way to escape from this camp area, so most of the Xiliang soldiers either surrendered directly, or hid in those collapsed houses.
Before, Li Xinchen and they were in a hurry to kill, and they didn't carefully search the corners, but now it seems that the harvest is not small.
"Stand apart!" Pei Zilie pressed his sword in his hand and shouted coldly, "Drag out those few who want to run to the other side of the team!" ”
Several wolf-like soldiers immediately pounced on them and pulled them out.
And Li Xinchen and Xiao Shilian glanced at each other, both a little surprised, Pei Zilie also noticed the two of them coming over at this time, nodded his head, and then explained: "Those who took the initiative to put down their swords and surrendered and those who were searched by us from everywhere made two teams." ”
Li Xinchen suddenly understood that these captives were just two situations, one was to surrender on their own initiative, and the other was naturally to resist without success and be caught or where they were hiding and were searched, and taking the initiative to surrender This kind of thing, Xiao Yue, as the emperor of Xiliang, will definitely not be able to do it.
"General Qiyu, it's these people who want to run to another team." A general walked over quickly, and the soldiers behind him escorted several people wearing Xiliang clothes and armor, although those people were constantly struggling, but Nan Chen's soldiers still held them down and made them kneel.
Just now, these guys obviously wanted to run from the team of people who were searched on the left to the team that surrendered voluntarily on the right, but they were discovered by the sharp-eyed Pei Zilie.
Li Xinchen frowned and looked at these people, who were five big and three thick sturdy men: "It shouldn't be among these people." ”
"You mean?" Pei Zilie looked at them.
Li Xinchen walked straight over: "Stretch out your hands." ”
Those Xiliang soldiers didn't know why, they struggled one by one and glared at Li Xinchen, if it weren't for the Nan Chen soldiers pressing them to death, I'm afraid they would have pounced on them a long time ago. Li Xinchen sneered, pulled out Chen Zhishen's saber beside him, and without waiting for Chen Zhishen, Pei Zilie and the others to come back to their senses, they simply pierced the chest of a soldier.
The sword was drawn, and blood splattered. Li Xinchen didn't look at the soldier who fell to the ground, and then repeated: "Stretch out your hands!" ”
The soldiers still wanted to struggle, but the tragic death of their companions had already made it clear to them that the young man standing in front of them was really murderous and didn't blink an eye, and he didn't mind sending them to Huangquan Road together.
In desperation, although several people were reluctant, they still stretched out their hands.
Chen Zhishen glanced at Li Ping, took a step forward with several soldiers, and grabbed their wrists violently to prevent changes. And Li Xinchen looked at the fingers of several people, turned his head and said in a deep voice: "These people have obvious calluses on their hands, and there are quite a few of them, and their faces are quite rough, obviously they are all people who have been fighting on the battlefield for a long time, so naturally it can't be Xiao Yue himself." ”
Pei Zilie bowed slightly: "That means Xiao Yue should still be in the team now?" ”
Li Xinchen walked to Pei Zilie and Xiao Shilian's side, and said in a low voice: "These people are quite stubborn, and they can be seen that they are all old pawns, if they hadn't killed one of them directly just now, I'm afraid no one would be obedient, why do you say that such a person suddenly ran to the other side?" ”
Nan Chen's way of separating the team is obvious, on the one hand, he surrendered actively, and on the other hand, he was passively captured, as long as he is smart, he knows that the former one must have more chances of survival, but these guys in front of him do not seem to be greedy for life and afraid of death, so it stands to reason that they take the risk of doing such a thing.
Xiao Shilian also said suspiciously: "And although the guards and forbidden troops around Xiao Yue look quite elite, we fought very easily just now, which means that most of them are fancy people who have never been on the battlefield, and these people in front of them must be different from them." ”
"A few generals, just now it took a lot of effort to catch a few of them, and there are several more with them." The general next to him also remembered something, and hurriedly spoke.
And Pei Zilie also understood at this time, and his eyes couldn't help but light up: "In other words, these guys should be Xiao Yue's personal guards, the reason why they took such a risk just now was just to test Xiao Yue's ability to pass the test like this?" ”
"That's how it should be, drag their companions out!" Li Xinchen sneered.
Suddenly, the faces of several soldiers kneeling there were as dead as ashes.
