"Bell"

A servant banged a gong to open the way in front, and the official who followed closely behind held aloft signs saying "Silence" and "Avoidance". Further back is a warm sedan chair, with ten waiters on both sides of the car window, each with a knife, gun and whip chain, guarding both sides.

On the way, when the people saw the prefect's team, they dodged one after another.

Cai Jiu lifted the sedan curtain and looked at the docile appearance of the people on both sides, and he was also quite satisfied.

They have nine brothers, the eldest brother Cai You is now the highest official position, but also the most prescient, when the saint was still the king, the eldest brother was respectful to him, so the saint was very trusting to the eldest brother after the throne, and gave the Jinshi background, and successively awarded the privy direct bachelor, Longtu Pavilion bachelor and attendant, Xuanhe Temple scholar festival envoy and other important positions, and Wang Hao and others are friendly, the power has been vaguely able to fight with his father Cai Jing.

In recent years, his father has gradually lacked energy, so he handed over all the affairs of the DPRK and China to his second brother Cai Qian to take care of, not wanting to disagree with the eldest brother. Coupled with Liang Shicheng, Wang Hao and others secretly making stumbling blocks, it is said that the saint has been shaken a little. made my father have to deal with the struggle of the court with all his might, but let the Liangshan thief who robbed the birth gang have more time to be free. However, when his father stabilized his position, he had to send a large army to conquer Liangshan. It also lets these people in the world know that my Cai family's things are not moved casually.

The third brother Cai Cheng is now the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, but his political views do not agree with his father.

The fifth brother Cai Yan is the captain of the horse, married the princess Maode Emperor Ji as his wife, although because he is a horse, he cannot participate in political affairs, but he also enjoys endless glory and wealth.

Although the other brothers are not so prominent, they are all from bachelor's degrees, and they have their own idle positions in the court.

Thinking of this, Cai Jiu was also secretly proud.

If it weren't for the fact that he had told his father many times that he was interested in doing a career in the local area, how could his father have put himself in this Jiangzhou. Although this Jiangzhou is a little remote, it is a place with a huge amount of money and food, and it is far away from Jingshi, the emperor of heaven and earth is far away, in this Jiangzhou itself is the sky, who dares to disobey, how can it be like being at home, there are so many brothers who need to be respected, and it depends on them fighting for each other.

I don't know what the power is fighting, life is short, and it is appropriate to have fun in time.

Whose woman he fell in love with in Jiangzhou would appear on his bed that night, and if there was a lack of gold and silver, someone would give it to him. Wouldn't it be much happier than when they fought with each other in the court?

"Dog officer, look at the sword."

When Cai Jiu was thinking about it, he only heard a coquettish reprimand in the air, and when he looked up, a woman in white was jumping on the second floor of the restaurant next to him, and the long sword in her hand was flickering with cold light, and she was stabbing at herself.

Cai Jiu is also a family scholar, his father Cai Jing is assassinated dozens of times a year, and after he came to Jiangzhou, he was assassinated several times, but he was taken down by the guards he brought from Beijing.

Seeing someone assassinating, he didn't froze, but shrank his head and hid on the other side of the sedan chair, shouting at the same time: "Take down the assassin." ”

Fang Baihua didn't expect Cai Jiu to react so quickly, a sword stabbed into the air, and just about to draw the sword and stab again, Yu Hou next to him had already reacted, and a man with an iron whip smashed it with a whip.

Fang Baihua hurriedly dodged, and at the same time, stabbed down a slower Yu Hou next to him with a sword.

After this delay, all the people had drawn their swords and surrounded them.

Although Fang Baihua had superb martial arts, he only had the skill of covering up for a while, and he was slowly forced to leave the warm sedan chair by everyone.

Cai Jiu heard the sound of fighting in the sedan chair getting farther away, so he also had the courage to open the sedan curtain to look, and saw that his guards had surrounded the assassin, so he had the courage to look at the assassin closely.

After looking at it closely, I couldn't help but feel my heart and shouted: "Capture this beauty alive, don't hurt her." ”

A Yu Hou was stabbing Fang Baihua with a sword, and when he heard Cai Jiu's words, he hurriedly collected the sword, but was stabbed by Fang Baihua and stabbed in the arm with a sword.

Cai Jiu's guards were all skilled in martial arts, although they were a little timid at the beginning because they didn't dare to hurt Fang Baihua, and they were injured by Fang Baihua in a row, but they quickly stabilized their positions and forced Fang Baihua to be left and right.

Several Manichaeans in white clothes and black hats saw that Fang Baihua's assassination failed, and they also hurriedly ran out to respond, but they were all stopped by Cai Jiu's guards and couldn't get close to Fang Baihua.

Cai Jiu looked at the heroic Fang Baihua being forced to hurry, and couldn't help laughing: "Mei Jiaoniang, don't resist, Lord Ben will take good care of you, including endless delicacies from the mountains and seas, and endless silk and satin." ”

Fang Baihua watched Cai Jiu's words and teasing, her face flushed with anger, and the sword in her hand stabbed to the four sides desperately, although she almost stabbed the two of them, but the sword in her hand was entangled by an iron chain.

"Let go"

Yu Hou, who made the iron chain, couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw the sword of Fang Baihua entangled, and pulled the chain in his hand.

Yu Hou next to him also took the opportunity to surround him, preparing to capture Fang Baihua alive.

Cai Jiu saw that Mei Jiaoniang was about to arrive, and did not forget to instruct: "Don't hurt her, Lord Ben is happy tonight, and there are many rewards." ”

When Fang Baihua heard Cai Jiu's order, she couldn't help but be anxious, her silver teeth bitten, her body leaned, and when her neck was about to wipe off the sword, she only heard the shouting outside: "Please go and save the Holy Aunt first." ”

As soon as Fang Baihua raised his head, he saw a heroic young man rushing over with a flat pole in his hand, and several Yu Hou greeted him, but he was knocked to the ground by the young man one by one.

"It's You"

Fang Baihua also recognized people, but he was a person who had a relationship in Xunyang Tower a few days ago.

Chao Yong danced the flat shoulder that he grabbed from the side of the road, forced everyone to wait, grabbed Fang Baihuayu's hand, and said: "Hurry up, otherwise there will be a large group of officers and soldiers coming in a while." ”

Fang Baihua was held by Chao Yong's hand, and couldn't help but blush, but he didn't move under his feet, but said: "This dog official is corrupt and perverts the law, oppresses the people, and if he doesn't kill him today, he will take strict precautions in the future." You stop them, and I'll kill this dog." ”

Chao Yong didn't expect that after Fang Baihua was rescued, his first reaction was not to escape, but to continue to assassinate Cai Jiu. couldn't help but turn his head and take a closer look at Fang Baihua, a thin bead of sweat oozed from the fight on his beautiful face, but his face was full of pride.

"Okay, be careful, watch me kill this dog officer."

Chao Yong told Fang Baihua a word, then turned around and rushed to the warm sedan car that was still parked in the middle of the road.

Cai Jiu didn't expect this change, and hurriedly shouted for the guards.

A Yu Hou was bold and slashed at Chao Yong.

Chao Yong only turned to one side, flashed the steel knife, and knocked off the head of the flat shoulder in his hand. The brain melon cracked like a broken watermelon, and the red and white splashed all over the ground.

The rest of Yu Hou saw that Chao Yong was so fierce and vicious, and suddenly lost their courage, just shouting but not daring to step forward.

Chao Yong smiled contemptuously at everyone, suddenly jumped up one person high, and smashed the flat shoulder in his hand towards the warm feet.

With a loud bang, the warm sedan chair was smashed to pieces, and when everyone looked at it, Cai Jiu inside had been smashed and lost his human form.

Chao Yong saw that he had succeeded, so he hurriedly turned around and picked up Fang Baihua and ran out of the city.

Seeing that Chao Yong was so vicious, how could they dare to stop him, and several Manichaeans also took advantage of the situation to escape.

Fortunately, Cai Jiu saw that Fang Baihua and a few people couldn't escape, and he didn't order to block the city gate, and Chao Yong killed people and escaped in an instant, so when they ran all the way to the city gate, the officers and soldiers guarding the city just felt that something was wrong, and they were killed out of the city by everyone.

Out of the city, Fang Baihua pointed to a boat on the river and shouted, "There, get on that boat." ”

The crowd jumped aboard, and the Manichaeans who were on board supported the boat to shore the boat.

Fang Baihua's breath was undecided, so he shouted: "It's really happy." ”

Chao Yong turned his head to look, but he saw Fang Baihua's crisp chest that was violently undulating because of a fierce run, and he tried to raise his head, looked at Fang Baihua, and said with a smile: "Haven't asked this woman's name yet?" ”

Fang Baihua hugged his fists and said: "In Xia Muzhou, Fang Baihua, thank you for saving your life." Dare to ask Engong's surname? So that the flowers can be remembered. ”

Chao Yong also returned the salute with his fists and said: "Chao Yong, the little overlord in Xialiang Mountain, pulled out his sword to help when he saw injustice, this kind of thing is not worth mentioning." ”

Fang Baihua's eyes couldn't help but light up, stared at Chao Yong up and down for a while, and said: "I didn't expect Engong to be the little overlord of Liangshan, Engong has become famous in the past two years, and people in Jiangnan are curious about what kind of hero the little overlord should be." Don't want to be ...... like that."

As he spoke, he couldn't help but blush and kept silent.

Chao Yong couldn't help but be curious: "So what? ”

Fang Baihua wanted to say that she was handsome, but when she came to her mouth, she suddenly thought that it seemed a little inappropriate for her to praise a person of her age like this, so she hurriedly stopped.

was questioned by Chao Yongyi, his face couldn't help but turn redder, he stomped his feet, and said crisply: "Anyway, it's not like the rumors." By the way, Engong is not in Liangshan, why did he fall into Jiangnan. ”

Chao Yong smiled: "You and I are the same age, so we don't need to be called by Engong." I went to Jiangnan this time because an elder assassinated Jiangzhou, so I escorted him south. ”

Fang Baihua said: "Then why didn't you save him halfway?" ”

Chao Yong shook his head and said: "He wants to be loyal to the court and refuses to go to Liangshan with us." ”

Fang Baihua couldn't help frowning when she heard this, and said, "Such a pedantic person doesn't seem to be a very good man. Now that the emperor of the court is mediocre, the ministers are in power, the people are not happy, and there is nothing to wait for. ”

When Chao Yong heard this, he couldn't help but say in his heart: "Listening to your name, it seems that there are also a lot of forces, so why don't you rebel?" ”

Fang Baihua thought about it for a while, hugged her fists and said: "Don't hide it from Engong, we are from the Jiangnan Manichaean Sect." Now that the people of Jiangnan are suffering from Huashigang, I also persuaded my brother to raise the banner of righteousness to save the people, but my brother has pushed back every time. The people in my generation should be like you Liangshan heroes, killing corrupt officials and saving the people, then they can be regarded as heroes. ”

Chao Yong smiled: "Your brother is probably waiting for the opportunity." ”

Fang Baihua saw Chao Yong speaking for her brother, but she didn't appreciate it, shook her head and said, "Wait a little longer, and the people will have to suffer a little more." If we want to raise the banner of righteousness, how can we be afraid of bloodshed and sacrifice. As long as we can save one side of the people, our flowers will be worth dying. ”

Chao Yong didn't expect such a beautiful woman to be so fierce, and said with a smile: "If you want to achieve great things, you must first forbear, otherwise I am afraid that you will not be able to succeed, and you will harm many people." If the time comes, you Manichaeism will rise up, and I am afraid that you will not be able to save the people, but will lose many heroes in vain. Then who will save the people? ”

Fang Baihua didn't expect that such a brave person as Chao Yong would actually have the same knowledge as his brother, and couldn't help but say: "When we die, there will naturally be other heroes to save the people, and you just can't bear to say this because of your surname." ”

When Chao Yong heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Fang Baihua's words are not unreasonable, there are many heroes in this world, just like this rolling river, the back waves push the front waves, but who wants to be the front waves and die on the beach.

Everyone wants to wait for the right moment and succeed in one fell swoop. If there is no pioneer in front of us, how can we know when the time is right?

But ants still steal life, let alone people.

In every era of change, there can be a few people who shout "and posterity" and bravely go to justice, using their own blood to wake up the people.

Most leaders are willing to live and die with their subordinates after failure, but they all feel that this Lang Lang Qian will not work without themselves, so they run away with shame, wait for the opportunity, and make a comeback.

So what kind of person should you be?

Fang Baihua knew that so many thoughts had flashed in Chao Yong's head, and he was silent for a long time, and said busily: "Baihuakou is unobstructed, if there is any offense to Engong, please forgive Engong." ”

Chao Yong was interrupted from his thoughts, shook his head and said, "It's okay, I just remembered something." ”

After saying that, he had walked down the river for a while, and there were no officers and soldiers on the shore to chase him, so he said: "Okay, let's dock in front, I still have a few brothers waiting." ”

When Fang Baihua heard this, she couldn't help but say: "I also want to see what kind of heroes the heroes of Liangshan are, why don't I go with you." ”

A Manichaean next to him saw that Fang Baihua was about to go ashore, and couldn't help but hurriedly say: "Holy Aunt, there has been urgent news from the Holy Father, let me wait to accompany you back to Muzhou, and if you delay any longer, I am afraid that I will be punished when I go back, and please go back with us." ”

When Chao Yong heard this, he also smiled and said: "Exactly, Cai Jiu was killed, Jiangzhou soldiers and horses will inevitably be searched everywhere, and I will go north with my brothers when I go back. ”

When Fang Baihua saw Chao Yong say this, she had no choice but to let someone send Chao Yong ashore.

Chao Yong went ashore and watched Fang Baihua and the others go down the river and disappear from sight, and then set off to Zhang Shun's residence.

Chao Yong said that after overhearing the secret words of Fang Baihua and others, Zhang Shun went to ask An Daoquan to count again, and he was also idle, so he decided to see how this "holy aunt" assassinated Cai Jiu. He didn't know what the Manichaean secret was like, so the surname Suo went to follow Cai Jiu, as long as someone assassinated, he naturally couldn't escape his eyes. It's just that Cai Jiu has a lot of guards around him, and he doesn't dare to follow too closely, so he almost let Fang Baihua, a strange woman, die today.

Chao Yong originally just wanted to watch a live version of "Heroine Assassinating Corrupt Officials", but he didn't expect to meet such a strange woman.
