Chapter 147: "The Wedding Dress"
Cao Cao......
It is a name that will be admired, feared, cautious, and wise for the next thirty years...... In his vague historical knowledge, it is also clear that such a heroic man fought hundreds of battles in the south and the north, unified the north, and still maintained a tough position in the face of domestic secession, subdued Wuhuan and Xianbei externally, and sinicized the Southern Xiongnu.
However, in a different direction, if someone else had said this to him, he would have been slashed with a knife.
Glancing at the back of the person who walked in, Gongsun stopped arching his hand, turned around and walked out of the courtyard of the mansion, when Li Ke led the horse over, the sky had already darkened, and at a certain moment, his eyes were like a hungry wolf, staring at the gate for a while, and then his face calmed down, pulled the reins, and his voice was short and powerful: "Let's go back." β
The horse's hooves walked slowly on the cold, hard stone bricks, the light of the lanterns flickering on their faces, pondering something, and after a while, speeding towards the inn.
After a few streets, to the door of the post house, the crowd of armed fighters had dispersed when the official official servant came, only a few people were caught before they had time to run, and they knelt on the ground, Gongsun stopped the war horse, stepped on the mottled blood stains on the ground, and when the leading official stepped forward and arched his hand, he drew his knife in a loud voice-
Several figures kneeling on the ground raised their heads slightly, the blade cut through their necks, and the sticky blood spots splashed directly on the face of the official next to them, and the corpse fell down with a bang. β
The county lieutenant smacked his lips, pulled out half of the knife and inserted it back, "Gongsun Chief, Juye is also a big county, I'm afraid it's not good to kill people in the city, it's better to hand it over to the lower officials, then Wei Zhongdao can't get out of the city at this time, and it should still be in Chen Liuwei's house." β
The figure in front of him walked forward, didn't seem to listen to him, strode into the post house, saw the woman sitting inside, and sat down straight, "...... Have you ever regretted it? β
"If that husband knows that behind Wei Zhongdao is the Hedong Wei family......" Cai Yan turned her head and looked at her husband with burning eyes, "Do you regret snatching the concubine?" β
"I won't regret it, if I never did, I would rob it again!"
The woman laughed: "Then the concubine body will also let you rob it again." β
"Hahaha......"
The figure laughed and got up, and strode towards the door, "This is my mother-in-law-" In the heroic voice, the figure has stepped out of the threshold, and dozens of wolf riders have gathered in front of it, and the war horses have also been led from the backyard of the post house to this side, and they have already mounted the war horses.
"Leader Gongsun, you can't do this...... This is Juye, it's the county seat, you can't kill people indiscriminately-" The county lieutenant chased after him to stop him, and with Cao Yanzhou's acquiescence, he really didn't dare to come with the other party, so he could only persuade each other bitterly.
"You also know that there is a huge field here, can these families attack the official post house lawlessly? They can kill people at will...... Bullying my Gongsun Zhi came from the North, isn't he? β
"It's not...... The leader of Gongsun must not think like this, after all, this is a city, and the officials over there will deal with it......"
Gongsun Zhi's eyes were cold, he turned over and got on his horse, the county lieutenant still wanted to come over and persuade him, but he fainted and fell to the ground after being beaten by Li Ke's mace, here, the black war horse neighed on the street, and the horse's head turned around: "Bullying us, what do you do?" β
"Take his headβ" shouted the knights, waving their swords.
The sound of horses' hooves gradually rose, and the local servants who came around were dumbfounded, and it was impossible to intercept them with this manpower, so they hurriedly dodged a road, and dozens of horsemen roared and rushed onto the long street, pedestrians and vendors hurriedly dodged under the eaves on both sides, and the soup and stalls flew sideways in all directions, and the chickens and dogs jumped for a while.
.....
To the north of Juye City, near the city gate, is a courtyard bought by Chen Liuwei's family.
"Wei Zhongdao! Why are you so unwise...... It's just a crime on the street, this is not Hedong, so you can't mess around......"
"A bunch of bandits who surrendered, living in the post house and treating themselves as characters on the stage? Brother Gong Zhen is also too careful. β
β...... Although Cao Yanzhou is taking care of me, it is only caused by my father's sprouting shade, if he continues to mess around, he will kill me like a chicken and a dog...... How did you harm me, this matter is for my brother to personally go to the Yanzhou Mansion to ask for guilt and leaveββ"
The angry figure walked to the door and glanced at the scholar with a blue nose and swollen face inside, strode away, walked out of the courtyard gate and walked into the carriage, turned the corner of the street, dozens of cavalry staggered past him, hearing the movement, Wei Zhen's eyelids jumped violently, scooped up the curtain and ordered the coachman: "Go to Yanzhou Mansion first, and by the way, go to the stable to book a room, don't go back tonight." Then a silent prayer began.
The coachman was also frightened, and with a shake of the reins, he ran much faster than usual.
At the same time as the carriage drove away frantically, at the gate of the courtyard in the distance, several guards in the courtyard heard the roaring hooves of horses and dozens of war horses galloping over, and they didn't want to open the door and ran in with a roll, behind them, there were a few swishing sounds, and the arrows were nailed to the door panel, and some people were scared to run inside in a panic and shouted: "Kill is coming, there are cavalry killing the doorββ"
The moment the scholar who was drinking a little wine hurriedly walked out of the door of the room, he heard a loud bang on the other side of the door, and then there was a "Ah! The scream came, and the sound was heartbreaking, making him shiver all over, and more than a dozen generals and guards gathered around him at this time.
"Childe, someone is fierce, let's go through the back door!" It was proposed.
Wei Zhongdao trembled and gritted his teeth in agreement, turned around and walked quickly under the eaves, only took a few steps, and the fight had already begun to spread, poof, the crescent moon door in the front yard splashed open, the corpse flew upside down and fell to the ground, and a big man with a long knife in the tiger's mouth slashed several people in a row.
Hideously yelled: "Where do you want to go-"
Someone here hurriedly jumped down the eaves and rushed over, there was the sound of pulling a bow, and several arrows flew over from the side, rushing to half of the courtyard and falling down in blood.
Ma Ming, who was embarrassed, was around the courtyard, Wei Zhongdao and the others saw that they had been surrounded, so they hurriedly turned back and ran into the room, picked up the furniture in the room to block the doors and windows, and occasionally arrows came in through the cracks in the windows and nailed them to the wall, or long knives stabbed through the doors, almost stabbing the approaching body to death.
"You bandits, do you know who I am!"
Protected in the middle, the handsome face that was a little hideous because of fear kept turning, roaring hysterically around him, and the robe on his shoulder tore a blood-stained wound, which was grazed by the arrow that had been unintentionally shot in before, and the pain made Wei Zhongdao feel scared.
ββ¦β¦ If you dare to kill me, the Hedong Wei family will not let you go, and my brother will not let you go! β
Outside, there was only the sound of horses' hooves running, and soon after, more than a dozen people in the house heard the subtle sound of rustling outside, and in a moment's doubt, they heard dozens of war horses suddenly chirping in unison, and there was a trilling sound in the air.
"What's going on......" someone muttered.
The next second, there was a loud tearing sound, followed by a bang, and the wooden pillars under the eaves outside the house collapsed, and the whole house shook, and the tiles slid down like rain, and there was a crackling sound outside.
Then, with a frightened cry from the people inside, the house collapsed, and the dust swept down to the wolves, the torches flickered in the wind, and a moment later the broken bricks slid and a figure staggered to its feet, covered in blood.
In the dust, a tall figure dressed in a big coat stepped on the ruins, walked in front of the scholar, looked at each other with lowered eyes, and spoke: "Wei Zhongdao? β
"Hah...... Be...... I...... Can...... Don't kill me...... I'm afraid ...... death," his voice trembled.
"Can't!"
Pulling the knife out of the sheath, the scimitar stabbed into the abdominal cavity, and when the blood gushed out, his wrist twisted, and the scholar opened his mouth, the huge pain made him unable to make a sound, only the dry rolling of his throat, and when the blade was pulled out, his eyes looked blankly at the night, and he fell backwards.
The bloodstained cloth was thrown down, Gongsun Zhi turned around and got on the horse, and someone from behind came to put the corpse's feet on the rope, and then tied it to the back of the horse, and dragged it down the street as the horse team left.
It's as if nothing happened.
It was late at night when Gongsun Zhi returned to the inn, and there was still a lamp left in the room, so he sat down quietly, held his wife's hand, and after a while, drank the warm wine left on the table.
ββ¦β¦ Cao Cao's side is almost there, Yuan Shao's attention went to Qingzhou, we should also go back to the north, I have killed that person, are you distressed? β
"It doesn't hurt, the concubine has reminded him that his life is his own, and he is to blame when he dies." Cai Yan whispered, seeing her husband with his eyes closed, he walked behind his back and pressed on his head for a while: "It's time to go...... There are too many intrigues in the Central Plains, Cao Cao is very smart, he is using you. β
Gongsun Zhi closed his eyes: "Why don't I use him, it's normal for everyone to take what they need." β
Over there, Cai Yan pursed her lips and smiled, her red lips slid down to her ears against the man's hair, opened and closed slightly, and exhaled like a lan: "...... Why do you have to use each other, it's better to hibernate and let him make a wedding dress for her husband? β
Make me a wedding dress?
Gongsun Zhi frowned, and suddenly thought of a person in his mind - Sima Yi.
