Chapter 316: Zhao Yu was hit by an arrow
I learned from Wang Yuyan that Zhao Xiaoxi dotes on the girls around her, and Li Qinglu has only heard about it, but now she finally sees it with her own eyes. It's just that after Mu Wanqing said this, the atmosphere at the scene was undoubtedly much colder.
Knowing that tonight's dispute seemed to be caused by wine, Li Qinglu looked at the red liquor poured out by Cho Hyo-seok. Pretending to be interested, he said, "Ugh! Mr. Zhao, is this the heroic blood of the Central Plains? Can you pour me a glass? ”
Perhaps knowing that Zhao Xiaoxi's identity as the county king is not easy to expose, Li Qinglu is called Mr. And this sentence 'little sister' is also the first time to say it, but it can also show that the relationship between the two has progressed.
Hearing Li Qinglu's voice, Zhao Xiaoxi knew very well. Although this hero's blood is difficult to buy, the Western Xia royal family still purchased this wine. After all, the wine made by Cho Hyo-seok is used to make money many times.
Knowing this inquiry, it was more to break the deadlock on the scene, Zhao Xiaoxi smiled and said: "Okay, but this wine is quite strong, it's okay to have a small drink." Remember, when drinking, try to take small sips. ”
With Li Qinglu's interjection, Wang Yuyan was also not stupid, and said with a smile: "Sister Qing, Sister Ling, let's hurry up and eat meat!" Otherwise, when the barbecue is cold, the taste will not be as good as it is now. ”
With these two girls mixed with each other, the situation of a little cold scene is gradually getting hotter. Looking at the ironclad cavalry who were still patrolling, Zhao Xiaoxi also instructed the military guards to bring the roasted meat over and share it with these cavalrymen.
Even in the eyes of many people, this kind of heroic blood that is difficult to buy with money, Zhao Xiaoxi also asked Wu Wei to carry it and hand it to these ironclad cavalrymen of Western Xia to share it with. The purpose is also to use this to deal well with these elite cavalry of the imperial city.
For Zhao Xiaoxi's gifts, these ironclad cavalry are all people who are good at wine and meat. But in the face of this gift. They also waited for Li Qinglu's approval and thanked Zhao Xiaoxi before they began to eat in batches.
Even if some Western Xia cavalry who couldn't speak official language, they drank with Zhao Xiaoxi's military guards, and the friendship between the two sides seemed to be much better. After all, they have also heard of this kind of heroic blood. It's not common in Western Xia!
The picnic didn't last long, and as Zhao Xiaoxi extinguished the fire, he dug out two grassland eagles buried in the fire. Looking at the fat and tender carved meat, Zhao Xiaoxi also felt that it was the first time for him to eat this thing.
In fact, not only him, Duan Yu and these girls are also tasting it for the first time. This kind of food, even in the grasslands, is very rare. Even Li Qinglu has had the opportunity to taste this carved meat many times. Equally few are pitiful.
Although the method is a little unauthentic, Zhao Xiaoxi must admit that the carved meat is made in the way of calling chicken. It tastes significantly stronger than chicken. In particular, it can be seen that this carved meat should be a delicious dish if cooked well.
After solving the last bit of food, looking at the food that had been wiped out, everyone also felt full of wine and meat. After starting to pack up those messy bones and bury them. Soon the group set foot on the road back to the post house.
Although it didn't come out for a long time, it was during this time. The princes of Da Liao and Tubo felt like cats scratching cats in their hearts. But the royal ranch was sealed, and their spies couldn't get in.
When the ironclad cavalry protecting Li Qinglu reappeared, those spies wanted to know what these people had done inside. But in the face of these ironclad cavalry and guards, no one dared to step forward to inquire easily.
Protected by these Imperial City Ironclad Cavalry. I was afraid that it was past the hour to enter the city. As soon as these ironclad cavalry appeared, the officers and soldiers who were responsible for guarding the imperial city also quickly opened the city gate and let the group enter the city.
Maybe it was the chaos of that night that made the imperial city basically under curfew at this moment. Usually on the streets. The pedestrians who can be seen are extremely deserted at the moment. Of course, the street under curfew is also the place where the post house leads.
In the rest of the streets of the imperial city, there are night markets as usual. Walking on this slightly calm street, looking at the carriages in the team, the officers and soldiers patrolling the city also looked a little in awe.
For today's Yinchuan princess going out of the city, many Western Xia courtiers are clear. Many people can't understand why Princess Qinglu would make an appointment to meet the prince of Dali to go out of the city to hunt before leaving the pavilion?
I don't understand, but no one dares to comment on anything. To put it bluntly, for the people of the imperial city, they don't care much about the princess marrying the king's son. They are concerned about what they can get out of it.
Sending Zhao Xiaoxi and his party to the door of the post house, Li Qinglu looked at the sky and it was not early. didn't go in with everyone, stopped directly at the door of the post house, and said goodbye to Zhao Xiaoxi and others.
Just when Li Qinglu said goodbye to Duan Yu, Zhao Yu, who seemed a little bored and looked around, was suddenly stunned. But soon Zhao Yu immediately exclaimed: "Someone! ”
With her exclamation, Zhao Hyo-seok looked in her direction. Soon I saw a few iron arrows flying straight in. didn't have time to think about it, Zhao Xiaoxi directly approached Li Qinglu, who was close at hand, and quickly fell down.
Although he found the archer attacking, Zhao Xiaoxi knew very well that the arrow was aimed at Li Qinglu. As Li Qinglu was pounced on by Zhao Xiaoxi, those military guards and ironclad cavalry also did not expect that there would be someone ambushed at the gate of this post house.
Looking at the few archers who were sneaking up, Wu Wei immediately screamed: "The sneak attackers, there!" ”
But at this time, everyone heard Duan Yu say in a panic: "Sister Tsuta, what's wrong with you?" ”
This exclamation made Zhao Xiaoxi, who had just hugged Li Qinglu and got up from the ground. Immediately, I saw that Zhao Yu had an arrow stuck in his chest. And when she was hit by an arrow, she seemed to fall directly into Duan Yu's arms.
Of the six iron arrows in this round, one of them hit Zhao Yu. The remaining five iron arrows were blocked by Duan Yu and Zhao Xiaoxi. From the long arrows that came from the attack, it can be seen that the archers are coming towards Duan Yu and Li Qinglu.
Looking at Zhao Yu's arrow, Zhao Xiaoxi's head suddenly became blank. And those guards, as well as those ironclad cavalry, were already chasing the six archers. Outside the post house, it seems that tonight is not calm again!
While Zhao Xiaoxi was in a daze, Duan Yu also seemed to be shocked and said, "Sister Tsuta, why are you so stupid?" They're going to kill me, why are you rushing here? You have to hold on, don't let up! ”
From this passage, it is not difficult to hear that Zhao Yu was an arrow to save Duan Yu. And at this moment, Mu Wanqing looked at the sluggish Zhao Xiaoxi, and said anxiously: "Brother Yun, don't be stunned!" Hurry up and heal her wounds! ”
A sound of healing made Zhao Xiaoxi wake up quickly. For his sister to be hit by an arrow, Zhao Xiaoxi almost never thought about it. Therefore, when encountering this kind of thing, Zhao Xiaoxi seemed to be unable to accept it all of a sudden. But anger slowly filled my heart!
With Mu Wanqing's exclamation, Zhao Xiaoxi hurriedly rushed over and took the arrow from Duan Yu's hand. Seeing the long arrow that shot into his chest and almost penetrated his abdomen, Zhao Xiaoxi also looked very nervous.
However, he was already sober, and quickly said: "Yu'er, I'm the second brother, you have to hold on." Don't sleep, second brother will find someone to save you now. Don't worry, the second brother won't let you have anything to do, you hold on! ”
Li Qinglu, who was under the protection of the ironclad cavalry, watched Zhao Xiaoxi start to stop the bleeding. Soothing the previous shock, he quickly said: "Mr. Zhao, hurry up and pick up Sister Yu'er, we will go to the Taiyi Pavilion now." ”
Looking at this long arrow, although it missed the vital point, it was also very deadly. While inputting internal force into Zhao Yu to maintain her vitality, Zhao Xiaoxi took Zhao Yu and said, "Okay, hurry up and go to the palace!" ”
Just as Zhao Xiaoxi and the others were about to act, a military guard rushed over and said, "Pavilion Master, those archers have escaped from the post house of the Tubo people. We wanted to go in and chase after us, but the Tibetan warriors wouldn't let us. Please also show the pavilion master! ”
Hearing this, although Cho Hyo-seok was anxious, he knew what was going on at night. It shouldn't have been done by Tubo, and that Zongzan wouldn't know how serious the consequences of annoying him were, not to mention the existence of Gu Mozhi.
But it was Zhao Yu who was injured at night, and Zhao Xiaoxi quickly said: "Remember, block the Tubo Post House, and wait for me to come out of the imperial city." Now everything is premised on the safety of the county lord. In addition, protect Duan Shizi, remember not to mess with it at this time. Do you understand? ”
The Tianwei quickly said: "My subordinates understand! ”
Let Mu Wanqing, Zhong Ling, and Ah Zi protect Zhao Yu to go to the imperial city first. Zhao Hyo-seok quickly followed on horseback. At this time, the military guards and those ironclad cavalry had already blocked the water surrounding the Tubo Post House.
Seeing that there was such a fuss on this big night, the military guards of Tubo were naturally very angry. But not long after their anger, in the garden of the post house, they found six archers who had committed suicide by poisoning.
Kumachi, who learned the news, looked at the six corpses, and the one who rushed to get the news. I knew that these six murderers who died at their post house poured a basin of dirty water on their heads.
Looking at the anger of those cavalry in the Western Xia Imperial City, Gu Mozhi agreed very sensibly, and asked Duan Yu, who stayed to deal with the matter, and He Ranlian, who learned the news, to come in to check the situation. If you don't let them see it, this dirty water won't be washed away at all!
The two Da Liao princes, who also learned the news quickly, also came over to watch the excitement. Looking at the six corpses that died in the post station, as well as the wronged Gu Mozhi, the two Da Liao princes also seemed to be very surprised.
Regarding this situation, Duan Yu quickly said: "Gu Guoshi, tonight's matter. Whether it was done by Tubo or not, but the murderer died in your inn, and you can't get out of it.
At present, my fourth brother has not returned, and these six corpses are placed here, and no one is allowed to touch them. Dare to murder Xiao Wang and Princess Yinchuan, these murderers behind the scenes, they want to make our three kingdoms even more strife! This matter has to be treated carefully! ”
Thinking of Zhao Yu, whose life and death were unknown in order to save himself, Duan Yu also felt very angry. But he knew very well that the more he was at this time, the more calm he became. If you do something wrong on the impulse, it will make the murderer's motive even more successful! (To be continued......)
