It's you!

Li Ru exclaimed, ignoring the pain, and forcibly struggled back on the ground.

You had to be frightened, because what caught your eye was the face of a man who was supposed to be dead.

Dong Dai, who was dressed in the clothes and armor of Hedong soldiers, sneered again and again, and fell in Li Ru's eyes, as hideous and terrifying as a life-seeking ghost.

Hasn't the Dong clan been wiped out? Why is she still alive, and how did she blend in with the Hedong Army?

In addition to panic, a series of questions surged into Li Ru's heart.

"Stand down!"

Dong Dai looked at Li Ru, who was so frightened that he struggled to retreat again and again, with a smile in his eyes, and he was not in a hurry to make a move, but waved his hand to let the Yiwu Hedong soldiers who were traveling with him temporarily retreat.

Those Hedong soldiers had just harvested the heads of Li Ru's three cavalry guards, and were about to step forward to arrest Li Ru, but they didn't expect Dong Dai to seem to be interested in sharing this credit alone, so he hesitated for a while before retreating to the back.

Taking advantage of this gap in time, Li Ru, who was originally panicked, sat up, stabilized his mind a little, and looked at the bloody ring knife in Dong Dai's hand, and thought quickly in his heart.

Judging from Dong Dai's behavior just now, she not only escaped from the bloody Hewu back then, but also fled into Hedong, got Yan Xing's secret protection, and even faintly possessed some power.

And she didn't rush to kill herself just now, and now she still has a glimmer of life.

Li Ru straightened up on the ground, holding his injured arm, and thought secretly.

Speaking of the grievances between the two people, coupled with various entanglements and disputes, it not only gave Li Ru a headache in distress.

From Dong Zhuo's intention to agree to marry, to Dong's mother's refusal to marry, Li Ru, a "good son-in-law" who wanted to cling to Gao Zhi, instantly fell into the dust, and his position in the Dong family was even more embarrassing. Before entering Beijing, Dong Dai made difficulties everywhere in the Dong family manor; After entering Beijing, Li Ru took the opportunity to persuade Dong Zhuo and Sun Jian to form a family of sons and daughters, and married Dong Daixu to Sun Jian's eldest son.

Later, Dong Zhuo moved the capital to Chang'an, the children of the Dong family listed the court and waited for the generals, and the daughters of the Dong family were nobles as the monarchs and enjoyed the big city, but Li Ru was squeezed out of the inner circle and played an embarrassing role in the court.

Later, Chang'an changed drastically, the Dong family was exterminated, and Li Ru, who was squeezed out of the inner circle, escaped, and took the opportunity to defect to Li Dao and Guo Yan, turned the clouds and rain, and returned to Chang'an City as a victor again.

Although Li Dao, who entered Chang'an City, also sacrificed to Dong Zhuo, the prominent Dong family, except for Dong Cheng, who was far away and led troops outside, everyone else died.

Unexpectedly, at this time and now, he bumped into Dong Dai again.

Li Ruqiang endured the severe pain in his body and mind, let out a dry laugh in embarrassment, and gasped and said:

"The lady is here, too?"

"yes!"

Dong Dai raised her eyebrows, the ring knife in her hand moved closer again, and said with a sneer in her mouth:

"It's just this reunion, but I don't know how to praise it, is it Master Li, the servant Zhonggong, or the traitor Li Ru?"

The feeling of being pressed close to his face by the tip of the knife was particularly uncomfortable, Li Ru's body couldn't help but tremble, looking at Dong Dai's tall figure, he was dying and said:

"The gentleman and I are not enemies, the Dong clan is annihilated, the enemy is the son of the Han dynasty today, the minister of the court, the famous family in Guanzhong, and even those generals in the army, I am a clerk, do not avoid danger, personally attract Li, Guo soldiers and horses, revenge for Dong Gong, meritorious and innocent, today unfortunately trapped here, why should the monarch and daughter be forced to force each other?"

"Yes, since the destruction of the Dong clan, you and I have no grudges, but you are also wrong, today I took your head, not because of grudges, but because you were defeated!"

Dong Dai's eyes were rolling, her blood-stained red lips were bright and moving, and she muttered.

And "you're defeated!" These three words fell into Li Ru's ears, and also made Li Ru, who was disheveled and disgraced, speechless, as bitter as a copper coin in his mouth, but Li Ru, whose face was gloomy, quickly raised his head again.

"Gentleman, although I am defeated today, I can defeat the general of the army, but I don't have to die!"

"Oh?"

Dong Dai looked at Li Ru with interest, waiting for his next step.

Li Ru met Dong Dai's bright eyes, and while pondering the thoughts of the woman in front of him, he began to say:

"Today, the gentleman took my head and offered it to Yan Yanming, what kind of reward can I get? Can you be a feudal lord again? Cleaning up the sound of the house? Or will you be able to take revenge? But if you leave me alive and let me serve in the Hedong Shogunate, I will be able to add a big arm to the shogunate, and if I have a plan in the future, the grace of today's life will be repaid by death! ”

Li Ru saw the desire in Dong Dai's eyes, so although his voice was low, he also spoke eloquently when he said it, and he regained his former self-satisfied look.

Even if Dong Dai's talent is not inferior to that of men, no matter how hard she works, she is a daughter after all, since this dynasty, if a woman wants to plan something successful, she can only rely on the power of men, either the mother is expensive and listens to the government, or she is widely connected with the party and secretly manipulated, and she is exactly the right person for Dong Dai to borrow.

Sparing one's own life is obviously more beneficial than killing oneself!

After Dong Dai listened to Li Ru's words, she also looked pensive, and after a while, she smiled, and the tip of the knife was slightly off.

Seeing this, Li Ru also laughed. He thought that Dong Dai had been moved by his own words, and was about to struggle to stand up, consider his words, and further stir Dong Dai's heartstrings.

Unexpectedly, in the next moment, the slightly deviated tip of the knife had been cut down mercilessly.

The sharp blade of the ring head knife cut through the leather armor robe on Li Ru's body, leaving a long wound on Li Ru's chest, and Li Ru, who was suddenly hit hard, fell to the ground again, letting out a pig-like wail.

"Whew—why you?"

Touching the blood gushing from his body, Li Ru howled in pain.

Dong Dai shook his head, sneered and said:

"Li Ru, you have no last resort, but in the end, you still don't see the failure of your strategy. You, you underestimate Yan Yanming too much! ”

As soon as the words fell, Dong Dai snorted lightly, and the ring head knife in his hand turned into a cold light, covering Li Ru's head, and Li Ru was also dying and struggling, throwing out a handful of dust in his hand.

This dust, he quietly grabbed in his hand between conversations, and when the corners of his eyes moved slightly, he had been measuring the distance between himself and the horse.

Once the agitation of people's hearts failed, he would scatter dust, lose Dong Dai's eyes, snatch the horse and escape, but because of the distance of the horse, his own injury and Dong Dai's intention, Li Ru, who was lucky, did not take the risk for a long time.

Now that death is on the verge of death, we still have to make a last stand!

Then the sword flashed, the dust swept to the face, and in an instant, everything came to an abrupt halt and returned to calm.

When Dong Dai retreated and rubbed his eyes and tried to open his eyes, Li Ru, who had dodged the fatal blow, lost an arm and struggled a few steps, and it was seen that the Hedong soldiers who had changed also rushed up, and the knife slashed at Li Ru.

In an instant, these nobodies slashed this think-tank figure who followed the Xiliang Army through the rise and fall of success and failure.

Dong Dai also put away a sneer on her face at this moment, she simply stepped forward neatly and cut off the head of Li Ru, who was already unrecognizable, but she only glanced at it, and then casually threw it to those Hedong soldiers who raised their knives.

"Take it, this head, you can exchange it for more gold!"

···

Li Ru is dead!

Looking at the unrecognizable head that could only vaguely identify the outline, Yan Xing's face was like a pool of calm lake, without a trace of waves, and others couldn't tell whether his heart was happy or angry at the moment.

If it weren't for the Hedong soldiers who followed Dong Dai to confirm Li Ru's identity, Yan Xing would really find it hard to believe that Li Ru, who was as cunning as a fox, was really dead.

And he was killed by Dong Dai Fulu!

When he left Hedong with his troops, in view of the fact that he welcomed the Son of Heaven in the west this time, he had to deal with Yang Ding and Dong Cheng under the original command of Dong Zhuo, and after thinking about it, Yan Xing decided to bring Dong Dai, who took the initiative to invite Ying to accompany the army.

Yang Ding is one of the old generals under Dong Zhuo, and Dong Cheng is a distant branch of the Dong family, if they meet Dong Dai, who was originally going to die, when they negotiate privately with the two, then it can greatly reduce their vigilance, so that they will not take risks and do anything to break the net.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Chang'an Imperial Court has entered Tongguan, and the status of the minister of the Son of Heaven in Dongzhan may not change much, but Yang Ding and Dong Cheng, the generals in the army who originally firmly controlled the Son of Heaven, have come to an end.

Not only did power change hands, but at the time of the alternation, the generals were even in danger of dying and disappearing.

Before, Li Dao's army was in a hurry, and the generals in the army fled eastward in a hurry, hoping to step into the territory of Hedong and Hongnong, so that Li Dao would stop pursuing, or simply attract Li Dao's army to fight with Hedong and Hongnong, and then they could fish in troubled waters and make profits for fishermen.

But after having no pursuers and a little respite for a while, facing the threat of losing power and even losing his life, Yan Xing could hardly imagine what crazy things Yang Ding and Dong Cheng would do.

At this time, if Dong Dai appears, there is a possibility that this dead end will be solved.

People have the idea of surviving. When they saw that Dong Dai, who was still abusive by the Dong family, could still stand in front of them with a smile, their minds must have been activated in an instant.

He Yan Yanming can even tolerate a character like Dong Dai who has a hundred disadvantages but no benefits, and he still lives a good life, so why can't I, Lao Yang, Lao Dong, also get a piece of the pie in Hedong.

As long as there is such a thought, even if it is only a slight move, then their motivation to survive in a desperate situation will be attenuated a little, and it will be much easier for Yan Xing to take over the Chang'an court and control the courtiers of the Son of Heaven next.

But now it seems that Dong Dai, who left the battlefield without permission and took risks and ambushed, seems to be more than just a tool to stabilize people's hearts.

"Why did you kill him?"

Yan Xing's voice couldn't hear a trace of waves, and he looked at Dong Dai, who was kneeling in the tent and waiting, feeling as if he was asking about an inconsequential matter.

"The concubine thinks that for the sake of the general, Li Ru will be killed!"

Dong Dai lowered her head and said softly.

"Oh, then tell me, why did I kill Li Ru?"

Yan Xing smiled and let Dong Dai continue.

"The concubine is not good at poetry and books, but I have also heard that Zilu asked about politics, and Zi said, 'It must also be famous!' , I didn't understand it before, but from the moment I saw Li Ru, the concubine seemed to understand. ”

Dong Dai still lowered her head and said in a good voice.

After Yan Xing heard her words, he immediately burst out laughing, but after laughing, his face instantly became serious.

"I heard that you don't want to marry Wan'er?"

"Yes!"

"What do you want?"

Yan Xing's voice suddenly became stern.

"The concubine wants to follow the Ming lord and serve the general, such as the story of the former Han Yin Anhou and Ming Female Marquis, reward the merit and seal the marquis, and wash away the family's reputation!"

Dong Daisu bowed and said respectfully.

"A woman's marquis can only be done by the arrogant Emperor Gaozu. Be careful! ”

Although Yan Xing admonished Dong Dai, he smiled a little more, he turned around and handed Dong Dai a bronze medal in his sleeve, and said:

"Zhou Yuanshan's subordinates are short of manpower, you can go!"

"No!"

Dong Dai took the bronze medal, saluted again, and slowly withdrew from the camp.

Outside the tent, Dong Dai's tall body stood by the torch, her figure swaying, the hand holding the knife rubbed the bronze medal in her hand, and the word "school affairs" on it couldn't help but make her show a deep smile.

This time, she got it right again!
