The enemy has broken through the wall and attacked Kong Zhai from east to west. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Info Zilu had a fire set in front of the house to prevent them from entering, but people kept rushing in, and he and the few diners who could still fight resisted their onslaught, like a lonely fishing boat under a huge wave.

Fortunately, Zilu's swordsmanship is outstanding, this kind of battle is limited to street battles before the eyes, and he was born as a light man, and he has been fighting in the streets and alleys since he was a child, and he is more powerful than a formally trained soldier.

Under the shadow of the sword, those who dare to draw their swords towards Zilu will die if they do not pull out their legs and flee.

Under their terrified gaze, Zilu shouted and slashed his sword, his arms turning red to his elbows, glowing with blood in the light of the morning sun.

He was a little drunk.

This is the frenzy of battle, how long has he not experienced it after learning etiquette and benevolence after worshipping under the master's door? Time becomes vague, slow, even stagnant, the past and the future disappear together, fears, thoughts, and even bodies cease to exist.

Only this situation, this scene, this moment! He couldn't feel the pain of the wound, he couldn't feel the weight of his armor, he couldn't feel the sweat that trickled down his eyes. In fact, he no longer feels, no longer thinks, only fights, only opponents, one, the next, and the next...... The enemy panicked, and Zilu was alive. Even though death was close by, he was not afraid of their slow spears, dancing and singing softly, laughing loudly, this was the middle of the drunken singing back then!

He reveled in the killing, and at this time, benevolence, righteousness and wisdom were useless, and only the most instinctive bravery remained, allowing Zilu to be injured in the melee but not to die.

But no matter how brave a samurai is, there will always be a time when he will be exhausted.

They had retreated to the main hall of the Kong Clan's mansion, and inside were the people Zilu wanted to protect, his lord and mother, as well as the wife and prince of the country.

The long sword in his hand became heavier and heavier, and there were only a few people left around him, and the rest were either dead or surrendered, and an arrow whistled and shot out, nailing him to the doorpost.

The blood flowed from the shoulder blade, and Zilu found that he didn't even have the strength to pull out the arrow, so he could only watch the person opposite open the bow again, aiming at himself.

The person who came did not immediately loosen the strings, because Zhu Qing had the victory in his hands, and he could perform the nobility of the nobility in front of everyone. He is Uncle Mu, the concubine of Uncle Gong's family, and Zilu has dealt with him several times during his defense of the country.

There was a smug smile on the corner of his mouth: "Zilu, you are a strong man, you should die under my arrows today, and it should be an honor for the Shushi to be killed by the Qing clan." ”

"If you want to kill, kill it, less nonsense!" Zilu has seen the most noble Li Min, and he has also seen the most despicable doctor, he doesn't think it's an honor.

But perhaps, that's the end of my life. He closed his eyes and waited for his fate to strike.

But after the bowstring sounded, he didn't feel the slightest pain, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that Uncle Gong Mu shook a few times and fell to the ground, with a feather arrow piercing through the armor stuck in his back......

……

"Uncle!"

Zhu Qing's family soldiers were shocked and looked around blankly for the murderer.

"It's not a shame for the Qing clan to die under the Shushi." There was a burst of laughter from the roof above, and Zigong looked up and saw a familiar person.

With that tall and thin figure, that huge bow, and that skillful archery skills, who else could there be besides his junior brother Yan Gao?

Yan Gao did not come alone, behind him, one after another, Zhao military officers carrying quivers or holding crossbow machines climbed onto the roof and fired arrows at the Zhuqing soldiers in the courtyard. After fighting all night, they were already tired and hungry, and when victory was in sight, they were suddenly attacked, and they immediately ran away.

After the soldiers of the Zhuqing family retreated, Yan Gao jumped down and walked to Zilu, who was resting with his eyes closed, with a sneering smile on the corner of his mouth: "Senior Brother Zilu, die?" Alive? ”

Zilu opened his eyes weakly, he really didn't have the strength to laugh with Yan Gao.

"Zijiao, what are you doing?"

Yan Gao took refuge in the Zhao family as early as ten years ago, and now the official is getting bigger and bigger, leading the Lu Guocai officer, and teaching recruits to practice archery in Qufu, how could he come to defend the country?

"Nature is here to save you."

Yan Gao stretched out his hand, pulled Zilu up, looked at his injuries, and asked his subordinates to find a few pieces of cloth to bandage Zilu.

During this time, Zilu only heard a noise outside, the drums were brisk, which were used for marching charges, and the shouts of killing and begging for mercy swept from the outside in. It was Zhu Qing's family soldiers, who had already invaded Kong's house, but they were attacked by a mysterious visitor and collapsed in less than a moment.

"It's really like Zilu said, there will be a turning point at dawn!?"

The door of the main hall, which had been closed for a long time, opened, and Kong Yan helped his father Kong Yu and mother Boji to walk out, a little incredulous. Wei Hou's wife Lu Jiang also followed behind with red eyes, and the prince held her in a cowering manner, refusing to let go.

The retainers who were still alive came to report that the Zhuqing family soldiers had been completely defeated and scattered, but outside the Confucian Mansion, they were surrounded by an army, and those people were sharp, more than twice as strong as the Zhuqing family soldiers, and the retainers and diners did not dare to resist.

"Well, it's better to come, go out with the old man to have a look." Kong Yu's face was not good, the mansion was full of corpses, and the strong smell of blood made these protected people pale, and the young prince vomited with nausea.

After walking out of the mansion, as soon as I looked up, there was a little red light in the north, which was the firelight of the new platform of the Guard, the tall building writhed in the firelight, and the cornices provoked were like three-legged golden crows bathed in fire, and they wanted to spread their wings and fly high.

Even if they are separated by several miles, they can still feel the scorching heat, and the people's fat and people's ointment that more than ten generations of Weihou have collected have burned all night, and they have not burned yet.

Outside the mansion, there were all black-armored soldiers, row after row, carrying away the corpses and searching the streets and alleys next to them. Zhu Qing's family soldiers knelt on the ground dejectedly, and Kong Yu also saw his political enemies Shi Pu, Beigong Xi and others in it, they lost their former Qing family bearing, and trembled under the threat of the blade.

Kong Yu himself was no better than them, and the crossbowmen on the roof were faintly looking at them, so no one dared to act rashly, only Zilu, who was covered in wounds, was still guarding the side with his sword.

At this moment, the bell also came from the other side of the city, and the low roar of bronze was faster than the last, resounding through the streets and lilu, and spreading to every corner of the emperor's hill.

It is a warning bell and a harbinger of the dissolution of chaos.

Everyone who survived the catastrophe was like the Kong family, quietly came to the window and door and peeked out.

They saw a quiet army under the leadership of a group of horsemen and cavalry passing through the city, their armor and banners flying, methodically dispersing the rebels who were still immersed in atrocities, capturing the henchmen of the Emperors, extinguishing the remaining flames, and occupying every tower and government.

After being divided into countless squads, this army is still very large, and their final target is Kong Yu's mansion.

Outside the mansion, the iron horses were like the wind, and the faint sound of horses' hooves quickly turned into deafening thunder, and more than 100 Zhao horses rushed to Kong Yu, Shipu and others, and the horses' hooves almost kicked them in the face. For a moment, the sound of horses' hooves, the clashing of weapons, and the shouts of soldiers converged into a huge wave, which almost suffocated everyone.

In the midst of the stars and the moon, a white horse carrying a black-robed and high-crowned scholar appeared in front of them. He is the initiator of all this, and against the backdrop of the fire of Xintai behind him, he is like a mountain, weighing heavily on everyone's heart.

Kong Yu involuntarily took a step back, Bo Ji panicked, Lu Jiang bit his lip tightly, his face was pale, the prince shrank back even more, his hand grabbed the corner of his mother's clothes, and Shi Pu and the others buried their heads lower.

The same is true for Kong Yi, although he is the same age as this person, and he has also pushed glasses at the banquet, but until today, he realized that although the two are both Qing clans, the gap is so big. Fate was completely played with by others, and an indescribable fear enveloped him, making his legs tremble, his teeth chattering, and his gurgling sound could be heard even by the deaf.

Only Zilu took a step forward and asked, "Zhao Shangqing, go and return, what do you have to do?" ”

……

Seeing that Zilu was alive and well, for some reason, Zhao Wuxian breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't have to change from an enemy to an enemy with Confucius, and he didn't have to let Kong Jiao's face be full of tears, and more importantly, in the middle of the night when no one was around, he wouldn't suddenly wake up because of guilt.

He smiled, pointed to the burning Xintai behind him and said: "This fire is too big, it can be seen in Lu Country, I am afraid that it will affect the neighbors, so I specially brought people back to fight the fire." ”

"Firefighting? Shangqing is really interested in neighboring countries, but he doesn't know who set this fire that almost destroyed Emperor Qiu? ”

Zhao Wuxian shook his head and said: "A guest visited the master and saw that the chimney of his stove was straight and there was firewood piled up next to it, so he persuaded the master to say: It is more abrupt and moves his salary far away, otherwise there will be a fire." But the owner didn't, and there was a fire in the master's house......"

"The fire of defending the country has accumulated more than one day, I passed by the defense of the country a few days ago, and I also advised the Wei Hou to change his policy and be careful of accumulating salaries, that is, the Qing clan with ill intentions. Unexpectedly, only a few days later, the chaos has already occurred, Wei Hou is dead, the country is in danger, Jin, Wei, and Lu are allies, naturally I can only clean up the mess. ”

He announced to everyone: "Now that the defense of the country is in turmoil, from today onwards, until the order is restored, all the defense of the Emperor Qiu and the local area will be taken over by the Zhao clan!" ”

"You!" Although Zilu was saved by Zhao Wuxian to save his life, he was very indignant about his scheming to defend him. For the benefit of the Zhao family, he put Diqiu in danger, I don't know how many people died last night, let alone how many wives were separated, and the savings of hundreds of years of defending the country were also destroyed.

Now, he has pushed everything cleanly, and as soon as he comes, he puts on a picture of swallowing the country, which is really ...... He was about to reprimand him for being unkind, but he was stopped.

"Zilu, this is not the attitude that the master taught us to treat our life-saving benefactors." Seeing that Zilu was about to make a fool, Yan Gao hurriedly stood up, pulled him aside, stopped him from continuing, and whispered in his ear: "Your retainer has fulfilled his duties, and the next thing is not something we can interfere with......

After this episode, Zhao Wuxian had time to look at the situation in front of him, his gaze stayed slightly on Shipu, Sun Xiang, Beigong Xi and others, and then fell on Kong Yu, dismounted and walked next to him, and said with a smile:

"It's good that Kong Qing is fine, dare to ask, where is Prince Wei?"
