Chapter 66: Drawing the knife to cut off the water and make the water flow more (I)
There was a loud "bang", and the sound of the golden blades ending everything.
Gao Cheng struck with his sword as if falling from the sky, protecting Yang Shunhua in front of him.
The man in black was knocked out for a moment, and saw that Gao Cheng seemed to be hesitating.
Yang Shunhua secretly thought that with his skills, Gao Cheng might not be his opponent. So why is he afraid? The only reason is Gao Cheng's identity. She couldn't help but glance at Gao Cheng's back guarding her in front of her. He was just guarding her, but he didn't seem to be in a hurry to kill the man.
"Ah Hui, he's going to kill Ah Sister!" Xiao Qiongju hurriedly reminded him.
Gao Cheng did not move or speak, and seemed to be deaf. But Xiao Qiongju's words reminded the man in black, and suddenly raised his sword as if he was going crazy and stabbed at Gao Cheng, who was protecting Yang Shunhua. I don't pay attention to any moves anymore, I just want to kill him and hers as soon as possible. Gao Cheng tried his best to deal with it.
Yang Shunhua suddenly relaxed after half a day of fierce fighting, and he could no longer raise his strength, and all the strength in his body seemed to be drained. could only watch anxiously as Gao Cheng put himself in danger.
"Sister, you're so badly injured." Xiao Qiongju walked up to her and looked at the blood stains on her white clothes and felt heartache. "Who is this man? Why did I kill you? ”
Yang Shunhua originally wanted to say something, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back, and only said, "It's not in the way, it's all a minor injury, Your Highness don't worry." ”
Neither of them had the heart to speak again, and they all nervously watched Gao Cheng and the man in black break up.
Gao Cheng is the general of the Wei State, even though the man in black is a dead soldier and dares to fight with his life, it is not so easy to kill Gao Cheng in an instant. The two of them fought and fought, and the man in black suddenly stabbed Xiao Qiongju with a sword while changing positions.
Gao Cheng didn't expect him to suddenly change his mind, and hurriedly jumped from behind the man in black. But after all, it's far away, one step late.
Xiao Qiongju was so frightened that she could barely move when she saw the cold light blade.
Yang Shunhua was like lightning, pushed Xiao Qiongju away, and protected herself in front of her. She was no longer powerless to make a move, and the sword of the man in black had arrived. The only way to do this is to close your eyes and wait for death.
The sound of "poof" is the sound of a sharp blade entering the flesh.
All of a sudden it was quiet.
She didn't feel any pain, she just felt someone holding her.
Yang Shunhua slowly opened his eyes. Gao Cheng hugged her tightly and protected her in his arms. He didn't have time to turn around to subdue the man in black when he jumped to the ground, and he only had time to block the sword for her with his own body.
Xiao Qiongju saw Gao Cheng with the sword in his shoulder, and he was so frightened that he couldn't say a word, and he couldn't move.
There was the sound of a sharp blade breaking through the air, followed by a jumble of footsteps, and the sound of a heavy fall to the ground......
"The son of the world is the sin of the minister." It was Chen Yuankang's remorseful voice.
"Hurry up, hurry up, quickly order someone to heal the son's wounds." It was Cui Jishu's voice.
"Ah Hui!" It was Xiao Qiongju's voice.
Gao Cheng was not lightly injured, but he didn't speak, and waved his hand to stop these messy sounds.
He lowered his head and looked at Yang Shunhua, still holding her tightly in his arms. She felt his body warm and his arms strong but heavy. He was trying to support himself, slowly raising his hand vigorously, brushing the messy hair on her forehead, and smiling slightly on his lips, "You're fine...... It's good to be fine......" he said and fell down.
Chen Yuankang glanced at the man in black who had fallen to the ground and died, and secretly resolved that he would never let go of his master.
And Yu Wentai, who was watching the scene in front of him in the distant bushes, stood silent for a long time, neither speaking nor moving, just frowning and looking at everything in front of him.
Zhao Gui, who was standing behind Yuwentai, only felt that by looking at his back, he could appreciate how heavy his mind was at the moment. The injury is not in the gut, but in the five. An invisible injury can be more serious than a visible injury. He even felt like he was breathing hard. Yu Wentai finally turned around impatiently and only said two words, "Let's go." With that, he walked away without hesitation. Zhao Gui didn't dare to say anything, and hurriedly followed.
Night finally came, and complete boundless darkness fell. Only the moon hung round and bright in the sky, but it could only illuminate itself but not the whole sky.
The fatigue of the long journey could not make the eldest princess Yuan Yuying sink into a dream as soon as possible at this time. For her, Chang'an is a stranger place. She grew up in Luoyang, from Luoyang to Tongwan, and then to Chang'an, her life is like reincarnation in a dream. But she didn't complain, she was deeply aware of her responsibilities as a clan bloodline.
"Isn't Your Highness asleep yet?" Nan Qiao gently walked over to the bed and asked softly.
"I'm thinking about ......," Yuan Yuying said while thinking, "Is it inappropriate for the Lord to order the King of Nanyang to take over Guanzhong in such a hurry?" "She was still lying down and didn't get up. He only ordered Nan Qiao to pick up the bed tent.
"Your Highness has been worried, there is nothing inappropriate, when this is changeable, there should be a contingency strategy, not to mention that the Lord is the Son of Heaven, who dares not to respect the Lord's edict?" Nan Qiao raised the curtain as he spoke, and in the dim darkness, he saw Yuan Yuying lying on his side on the pillow with his elbows without sleep.
"But the king of Nanyang is nameless, and the hussar general is nameless, isn't this a contradiction? After a long time, I am afraid that I will be suspicious. If you put such a person who can't grasp the real power in Guanzhong here, you won't get what you want, and you are afraid that the Lord will be resented in the future. Yuan Yuying obviously thought deeper than Nan Qiao.
Nan Qiao thought about the scene when Princess Feng Chang had just arrived at the mansion today, and was silent.
The captain of the horse personally went to the gate of the mansion to welcome the eldest princess into the mansion, and he didn't need to say anything about the warmth, but he also felt that he took the eldest princess to heart. Seeing that she arrived in Chang'an safe and sound, I was overjoyed. But even she could see that the joy of the Lieutenant attached to the horse was on his face, and he was always a little absent-minded. Nan Qiao even felt that he was a little distracted. Until the eldest princess settled down and ordered someone to serve her thoroughly, she went out of the house on the grounds of government affairs.
In the dark silence, Yuan Yuying was also recalling the scene just now. Thinking about it, it's not like she hasn't seen such a Yuwentai. In Luoyang, on the day of their wedding, Yuwentai suddenly left the table. That's how it felt to her at the time. What was in his heart? Can he give up anything so much, as long as it is involved?
Yuan Yuying suddenly heard faint footsteps. She could tell it was Yu Wentai. But the footsteps were different from the past, and seemed to be extraordinarily heavy. She suddenly woke up from her contemplation and whispered to Nan Qiao, "Captain Horse is back." ”
Nan Qiao quickly stood up and walked towards the door.
The footsteps grew slower and slower, and finally stopped.
Quietly again.
Yuan Yuying lay on the bed and carefully identified the voice.
Nan Qiao stood by the door and didn't dare to move.
It stopped for a long time. When the footsteps sounded again, they faded away until they disappeared.
Yuan Yuying rolled over, she couldn't sleep again this night. What really happened in Chang'an?
At the gate of the mansion, Yuwentai flew on his horse, whipped away, and disappeared in an instant. In a moment's time, he had nowhere else to go. Whose Chang'an is Chang'an? Who is Guanzhong? His throat was choked and his heart ached, so he could only swing his whip and ride his horse into the wind.
The feeling of being stuck never goes away. I knew that it must be white and bright outside at this moment, and it must be a good weather with warm sunshine, but I just couldn't open my eyes. Gao Cheng frowned and closed his eyes as if he had been pierced by the bright light. He was lying on the couch, gradually remembering what had happened. But it didn't seem to be true, it was very quiet in my ears, only one or two crisp birdsong outside the window.
"Is the son awake?" It was a quiet woman's voice. Listening to only one sentence, listening to the sound is light and minimalist, it is a little strange. But Chen Yuankang and Cui Jishu would never let strangers protect him here.
Gao Cheng didn't speak, but turned over with some difficulty towards the place where the voice came from. He felt the pain in his shoulder and back as if it were torn, reminding him of what had happened not long ago. I felt something touch his body gently as he turned over, but it opened as soon as it touched, as if the person was frightened by something. He slowly opened his eyes.
In front of his bed, it was Yang Shunhua who looked at him oppositely. She had never looked at him so quietly and so closely. She was lying in front of him, looking at him, her eyes red and a little swollen, but she was a little quiet and not like her. In the past, as long as she met him, she would either be captured cold-blooded and ruthless, or leave as cold as frost quickly.
Gao Cheng looked at her carefully, her clothes were clean and tidy, but her hair was still slightly messy. If it weren't for the tired look that couldn't be hidden, I would never have thought of the time when she was in a predicament and her life was hanging by a thread. It's just that she was so close to him, so close that he could hold her hand as long as he stretched out his hand.
Seeing his hand reach over with difficulty, the intent was obvious. Although her hand did not dodge, she trembled lightly and tangled her fingers with the silk brocade on the bed.
He finally touched her finger. She trembled with shock and tried to flee. But he grabbed her hand like lightning and held it tightly in his hand to prevent her from escaping.
"Don't move...... Don't move......" He used words to stop her from breaking free, like a command and a request. He gasped, his eyes closed, and his brow furrowed. The wound that had been pulled by the exertion just now was in pain.
Yang Shunhua knew that his wound was painful, so he didn't dare to move again. Just let him hold her hand, slowly sweating. She looked at him nervously, for the first time she could look at him so unhindered and intently. He is breathtakingly beautiful, even if the emerald light in his eyes is temporarily covered at this moment, no matter how beautiful a woman is, he can't compare to him.
Gao Cheng finally adjusted his breathing, and his brows gradually smoothed. At this moment, it appeared to be lazy, and in an instant, an ambiguous atmosphere filled the surrounding space. He was more like a casual closing of his eyes at the moment, and it was only the slight sweat on his forehead that reminded him of the pain just now.
Yang Shunhua suddenly had a whim, and he wanted to wipe off his sweat for him. She trembled and raised her other hand towards his forehead, and just as she stroked his forehead, she suddenly heard Gao Cheng ask lazily, "Why do you always avoid me?" Then he happened to open his eyes again.
