The hurried footsteps stopped under the eaves of the courtyard gate, and two huge wooden pillars were erected in the courtyard, and when the rope hung down, Li Ke rode over with a few wolves, and he gave his hand: "Take the lead, offended!" ”

Immediately, with a wave of his hand, a wolf rode over from behind him and took off the firewood on his back and threw it to the ground, and raised his head to look at the figure sitting on the big chair under the eaves, and bowed: "Leader, I killed many brothers, and I felt uneasy, and I voluntarily received my death today, but I just failed the leader's cultivation." ”

As he spoke, he walked under the wooden frame bare-chested, straightened his arms, and took a deep breath: "Come, go to punishment!" ”

"Idiot."

Hearing Zhao say such a thing, Yan Rou gritted her teeth and turned her face away, stomped on the ground, and the rest of the people such as Pan Feng, Dian Wei and others also sighed. At that time, if it wasn't for the greed for merit and the ambush of the Great Qin people, Zhang Yang and other thousands of people would not have killed him out of the fence to save him, tired of killing 6,000 Youyan foot soldiers, this group of people voted for Gongsun Zhi not long after, more than 10,000 people went to the small half in a few months, according to the crime, at that time had to cut off the head of the move, it was already Gongsun Zhi to divert his attention, originally let him take care of his injuries, and then find another war to offset the merits, and quietly erase this crime.

Now he is running out and making it difficult for Gongsun to do it.

Under the eaves, Gongsun Zhi pressed his fists with both hands on the armrest, staring indifferently at the figure with his hands tied and slowly hanging up, the next second, he got up and walked down the stone steps step by step, Li Kezheng took a knife and took it away with the one in his hand, looked at the person who grabbed the knife, the corners of his mouth suddenly drew a smile without a trace, and then retreated to the side.

"Really thought about it?"

His teeth moved, looking at the red light hanging in the light, stretching his arms, he walked over with a knife, and on the opposite side, the pull was facing the west, and the remnant sun in the west made him squint his eyes, and he couldn't see clearly what kind of expression the leader who came over, and when he heard the words, he just smiled.

"I've thought about it, I've been bothered by the picture of that day these days, I guess...... Presumably, there is no one down there to lead the brothers, so let me go down and continue to be the leader for them...... It's just that some of the things that can't stand are the leaders......"

He lifted his chin and sniffed, tears falling from his eyes.

“.…… Zhao studied under General He's Mansion, and later Mr. died, Zhao Ye Shicheng returned to his hometown, and soon voted for Yuan Shao, wanting to rise from the end of the micro, not wanting to embarrass Mr., and developed such a temperament...... It's just that I didn't expect that so many brothers would be killed now. ”

As he spoke, he bared his neck and straightened his head, looking at the sky as birds passed through his red vision.

"Chief, if you don't punish you, the soldiers below will think that the leader's punishment is unfair...... Everything that was done at the beginning was ruined! He gritted his teeth and roared: "Do it!" ”

In the roar, the tip of the knife was raised with Gongsun Zhi's arm, raised above his head, and under the eaves of the courtyard gate, many generals in the army rushed to see this scene, except for Zhao Yun looking at the raised blade, generals like Gongsun Xu, Zou Dan and other generals were a little hesitant, and couldn't bear to step out to persuade, but Zhao Yun reached out to stop him, his eyes swept over their faces, and his tone was cold: "The wolf who has suffered a loss will not make a second mistake." ”

When everyone was puzzled, the blade fell—

The little maid Xianglian hurriedly hugged the child in her arms and buried her face, but ...... She didn't hear the sound of flesh and blood breaking, she raised her eyes slightly, and there was no blood on the ground, so she heard a bang, and in her raised sight, the execution knife was thrown on the ground and landed at Gongsun Zhi's feet.

A strand of hair fell from it, and there was a lot of exhalation around him.

The figure that looked up and killed shook his eyelashes, heard the sound of the knife falling to the ground, lowered his head and looked at the figure in the light, and his whole body trembled slightly, and his voice was a little choked and called: "Leader......"

"Cutting the hair as the head, I hope you will make up for it." In a deep voice, Gongsun Zhi turned around and sat down on the side of the big chair, and when the wind lifted the corner of the robe in the evening, he looked at the hanging figure, and then closed it, "The death penalty is forgiven, but the living crime must be suffered, thirty lashes, none of them can be missing, Li Ke, execution." ”

Li Ke over there received the order, asked someone to bring a leather whip dipped in salt water, pinched it tightly, the whip whistled in the air, licked his lips, walked over, and then picked it up, crackled and pumped it down, the skin and flesh turned over, and the blood splashed.

Bang! One time.

Dip in water, and pump again, twice.

The whistling whip continued to fly and fall in the air...... In the crowd, a tall figure was coming back from outside, seeing the scene in the courtyard, and so many generals in the army around, suddenly he didn't dare to step forward, behind the crowd, Gerald noticed someone, turned around and saw his sister quietly leaving against the wall.

"Where have you been? What's in your hand? ”

The blonde woman hurriedly hid the bag of things wrapped in her hand behind her and shook her head: "I...... I felt a little unwell and went to see the doctors of the East, this is the medicine they gave me. ”

She didn't speak Chinese, and after explaining it to her brother, she walked quickly towards the kitchen, and as for the execution in the courtyard, it was not very attractive to her, and when she turned the corner, a figure crashed into her.

Smack.

The porcelain bowl fell to the ground and shattered, and the soup inside spilled on the ground.

"This is a tonic soup for Thorn Shi...... This is over, and the slave and maid will be punished by the steward again. The maid hurriedly squatted down to pick up the debris on the ground, and her face turned pale with fright.

Stephanie, who was busy helping to clean up, had her eyes flashing, and the corners of her mouth curved into a smile, "Is there still a kitchen?" Let me do it, so that the steward will not punish you. ”

"This ...... I'm afraid it won't work. ”

"It's okay, you tell me where it is, I'll go and serve another bowl, you find a place to hide." Stephanie neatly picked up the pieces and put them in the tray, took them in her hands, and pushed the maid out of here.

Soon after, she came out again, holding the wooden plate, and carefully walked to the eaves in front of the courtyard, where the crackling and whipping were still ringing, and under the wooden frame, she was hung and fainted many times, and was woken up by cold water, the skin and flesh on her chest and abdomen were sparse, and the whole side was sticky, full of thin flesh and blood, and even sticky plasma mixed with small pieces of skin and flesh that fell off and fell down and fell onto the pants.

He closed his eyes and gritted his teeth, his face was already terrifyingly pale, and his whole body trembled with every whip, but he never screamed out loud from beginning to end.

"Twenty-Eight", "Twenty-Nine", "Thirty"

"Torture over!" Li Ke wiped the sweat from his head, and when the wolf rider next to him shouted for the last time, he stopped, the leather whip in his hand was full of blood, and the water in the basin was also dyed red. Yan Rou hurriedly took the wound medicine prepared in advance and put down the half-dead figure with Li Ke, hurriedly applied the medicine, and wrapped it in bandages.

At this time, under the eaves, Stephanie came over with ginseng soup, "Gongsun, I just saw a warm soup in the kitchen, it's delicious, I'll bring some to you." ”

On the chair, Gongsun Zhi opened his eyes, looked at the guide of the dressing, and took the porcelain bowl handed by him, "Take him down to recuperate." ”

The still conscious figure struggled to get up under the support of Yan Rou and the others, and arched his hand tremblingly: "...... Thank you...... Chieftain...... I will never do it again in the future. ”

Here, Stephanie clenched her fists, staring at the porcelain bowl with bright eyes and putting it to Gongsun Zhi's mouth, but when she heard the sound of the pull, the porcelain bowl was held open on the armrest, and Gongsun Zhi nodded: "This kind of thing, no one can tolerate a second time, go down to recuperate, go to Xuchang with me for a while, and by the way, you go to Xuzhou to hand over Zhang Yang's letter to Lu Bu, which can be regarded as returning the other party's love." ”

Over there, he couldn't say much, he just nodded weakly, and was taken out by Yan Rou and the others. Gongsun stopped waving his hand to remove the wooden frame, and then turned and went into the house, where he had been exhausted for a month.

"Soup...... Soup ......"

Stephanie picked up the porcelain bowl on the armrest and chased two steps, the door just closed suddenly, looking at the enticing fragrance of the tonic soup, she stomped her foot in frustration, and was about to turn around and pour it out, when a hand suddenly came out and snatched the porcelain bowl from her hand.

The big-waisted figure drank it clean in one gulp, and licked his mouth unsatisfied.

"We Han people don't waste such good things."

Wiping his mouth, Pan Feng returned the porcelain bowl to the woman who opened her mouth slightly on the other side, and was stunned and couldn't make a sound, turned around and strode away, and when she passed by Dian Wei who returned from the door, she said hello and said goodbye, but it was a few more glances at the other party, Dian Wei frowned and glared at him, "Look at a bird." He stepped over the threshold and walked in.

Pan Feng walked out with a smile and shook his head, "Damn, the ginseng soup in the leader's family is really strong, and some of it is too supplemental...... Seeing Dian Wei, he felt that his eyebrows were clear. ”

"It's just...... It's so fucking hot. He took a few more steps and fell to the ground.

In the mansion, Stephanie was still holding the empty bowl, stunned in place, obviously her mind didn't turn for a while, stunned for a moment, she rubbed her face, and looked at the door behind her, "I don't believe I can't find an opportunity, so I bought some more." ”

Immediately, frowning and thinking about the opportunity, he walked to the backyard.

*********************

The sun has set and the night has fallen.

The lights were swaying warmly in the room, the children's voices were babbling in the shaking bed, Cai Yan changed the child's diaper, and gently pinched the head of the husband who was sitting quietly and closed his eyes.

"Husband, you did the right thing today."

"I just feel too tired, it's only been a month, I'm so tired that I don't want to move, it seems that I'm really not suitable to be an emperor, what should an emperor be like in this kind of thing?" Gongsun Zhi looked at the flickering candle flame and asked softly.

Cai Yan's hand paused, "Will kill the leader." ”

“.…… Let's let Zheng'er sit down in the future. ”

As he spoke, he held his wife's hand and looked at his son in the shaker, with a rare smile on his face.
