Chapter 15: Inside and Outside
Outside the antique room, the green willows hang around, the trees are verdant, the strange flowers are sparkling, but the pebbles are scattered with fallen leaves that no one cleans up, which makes people suddenly realize that this is not the elegant taste of the noble family, but just a quiet place that has been forgotten.
"Knock knock!" A few crisp knocks on the door shattered the years of calm.
"Who?" A hollow valley orchid rippled from the void.
"It's Grandpa."
After a while, the dark door opened, and the two bends seemed to be frowning, and a pair of eyes that seemed to be happy and unhappy came into view, but at this time, the pace was no longer the previous step by step, and there were more weak willows to help the wind.
"If Grandpa still asked me to apologize to the thief today, I would still say the same thing: No way! Even if it's for my whole life, it's impossible. ”
"Ahh Anyway, he's your uncle! No matter how greedy he is, how can he not even let go of his niece? ”
"Grandpa, what are you doing here?"
He Yan served He Zhen tea and put his head aside.
"I also asked the maid about the situation that day, Hong'er was really anxious, seeing that the maid was beautiful, I wanted her to serve in the morning, which was not a big deal. But you can't kick a maid off just because he eats it!"
"What is Grandpa's coming to call today? If it was the same as before, I don't know how to speak. ”
As she spoke, she picked up the water cup and looked like she was serving tea to the guests.
He Zhen also likes this only granddaughter very much, and he doesn't care about her rude behavior, "Okay, good!" Since you don't want to mention it, let's talk about today's business. ”
"This is my good grandfather, is there anything you want to tell you today?" 、
He Yi immediately changed to a gentle and lovely expression.
"You've been resting here for a few days, and the big man has been in a mess......" Speaking of this, He Zhen's mood was a little heavy. Everything about him belongs to the Han Dynasty, his daughter is the queen, his son is the general, and his grandson will be the emperor of the Han Dynasty, and the turmoil of the Han Dynasty will do him all kinds of harm and no benefit.
"What happened?"
"Qing, Xu, You, Hebei, Jing, Yang, Yan, and Henan eight prefectures, under the call of Zhang Jiao, millions of Yellow Turbans rebelled, and those Yellow Turban troops made the matter known to the world in order to show their momentum."
"Ahh …… Syllable! He Yi was surprised that the teacup in his hand fell to the ground and was smashed.
"It's really as Brother Xun said, this Taiping Dao will really cholera the world."
"What do you mean?"
"Grandpa, I met a person in Beijing before, called Xun Yu, the word Wenruo, his person is widely famous, handsome and handsome" Speaking of this, her little face was slightly red, "At that time, my daughter was dressed as a man, and I saw him talking to his friends, so I also participated, he didn't dislike his granddaughter at all and didn't know anything, and explained all my questions gently, but they talked about Zhang Jiao of Taiping Dao, saying that he might be the foundation of the Han Dynasty. ”
Seeing He Yi's daughter-like attitude, He Zhen, who is old and sophisticated, doesn't understand that his granddaughter is interesting to that Xun Yu. In an instant, He Zhen had a lustful Hong Ji in his head, and when he saw He Yi, who was as beautiful as a fairy, although he knew that the other party was his niece, he was extremely restrained from his actions, but it might also be a great insult to him Yi, who already had a sweetheart.
He Zhen, who thought he knew the truth, didn't continue to dwell on this issue, and said: "When the Yellow Turban turmoil is over, I'll write to your uncle and let him be a matchmaker, okay?" ”
"Ignore you, grandpa......"
"Hahaha!"
"That's right! Grandpa, you're not just here to make me happy today, are you? ”
He Zhen's smile faded away, and it became more heavy.
"Zhang Mancheng, the commander of Zhang Jiaozuo, led tens of thousands of troops and horses to besiege Wancheng, and Zhang Mancheng's deputy general Zhao Hong led 10,000 yellow scarves to besiege the county seat.
"Ten thousand ......" He Yi, who heard the number, was a little panicked.
"Our He family is full of loyalty, your uncle is the champion of the three armies, a few days ago led 50 men and horses to burn the enemy's siege equipment, but also killed the enemy commander Zhao Hong in the chaos in front of the battle, but the sky is jealous of the talent, was a cold arrow through the left chest, plus physical overdraft, now unconscious, the doctor said that although his heart is different from ordinary people in the right chest, but after the arrow, he has already moved his heart with the fight, plus excessive bleeding, just a few days."
He Zhen was proud at first, and he couldn't stop crying as he spoke.
He Yan did not doubt the strength of Hong Ji, he couldn't believe that he was such a wicked ghost, a hooligan and shameless person who was willing to throw his head for his family and country, sprinkle blood, and shroud his body in horse leather. In front of the facts, He Yi unconsciously reduced his dislike for him.
"Then grandpa is looking for me?"
"Before Hong Er fainted, she said that she wanted to see you again before the temporary period."
The deceased is the biggest, and his senses for Hong Ji have changed slightly, so he thought about it and followed He Zhen out of the small courtyard where he lived.
…………
During the interval commanded by Han Zhong, he observed the speed of the corpse falling from the city wall, and saw that the speed of the corpse falling had changed from someone being smashed off the city wall every moment to someone falling after a few seconds now, Han Zhong clenched the "Golden Back Mountain Chopping Knife" and galloped towards the direction of the cloud ladder.
As a qualified commander, he took the lead, standing more than ten meters from the city wall, ready to swing his sword to resist the incoming bow and arrow. But at the same time, he knows how to protect himself, the first charge is dead, the defenders of the city are recuperating, all kinds of city defense equipment are readily available, and the first rush is almost a corpse.
You can't rush until the end, otherwise your own people will lose all your morale, and you will lose the sense of oppression of continuous attacks, and you may be wiped out by the opponent with one blow. And now is the best time to turn into a sharp sword and tear a hole, and the morale of the follow-up people will be greatly boosted!
Han Zhong, who rushed up the ladder, saw a few branches of rolling wood falling and being cut off by him with a knife in his hand, and smiled: "Sure enough, the city's defending equipment has reached the point of exhaustion, these must have been picked up by the women in the city called on by the county order, women can't pick up heavy ones, such light objects are large and easy to supplement, if the martial arts are not good, they may even confuse the eyes of the besiegers!" ”
On the city wall, a person in front of Ye Jing was covered in blood and hurriedly reported: "My lord, although there are women to help collect the Rolling Wood Thunder Stone, but due to the dark sky and the obvious sharp things in the city have been collected, the supplies have not been able to catch up with the consumption, and many yellow scarves have rushed to the city." ”
Ye Jing also sighed lightly when he heard this: "The Han Dynasty has been peaceful for a long time, and the county town has not been prepared for war for a long time, and the sudden news of the war is also helpless. ”
Ye Jing, who sighed lightly, couldn't care much, and pulled out the sword in his hand and killed the yellow scarf.
After cutting down a few yellow scarves, he only felt that there was a murderous aura coming from behind, so he hurriedly turned around to meet them.
"Bell!"
Han Zhong was calculated with or without intention, and the sword in Ye Jing's hand was knocked away under the huge force.
