Zhao Feng never expected that Xiao Qiao would make such a request to him. This little girl from Jiangnan, who has always been weak, may not have even killed a chicken, and now she actually asks him to kill someone. But if she thinks about it, she should just say that. If she really wants to kill someone, I'm afraid she doesn't have the courage to do this kind of thing with a white knife into a red knife. I thought about it, but I didn't have time to pay attention to her for a while.

Xiao Qiao saw that Zhao Feng was noncommittal after listening to her request, and hurriedly said: "General Zhao, I just ask the general to let me slash the enemy, Qiao Ying is willing to be a cow and a horse, in order to repay the general's great kindness!" After saying that, he struggled to get out of bed and begged.

"You're not well, don't move." Zhao Feng hurriedly pressed Xiao Qiaodao, just now she moved violently, but the wound on her shoulder was oozing blood again. Sighing, Zhao Feng spoke: "At the moment, Ma Zhong has not been caught, but the four gates of Chaisang are already guarded, he should not have been able to escape, but hid in a secluded place in Chaisang City." When your injuries are better, I hope you can help paint a few portraits of him, and I hope he is wanted in the city. ”

"Qiao Ying is duty-bound, my injury is not in the way, the general will bring pen and ink, and I will paint." Xiao Qiao immediately said excitedly when he heard this. "You're really out of the way?" Zhao Feng looked at Xiao Qiao, whose left shoulder was wrapped in a thick layer of gauze, and asked with a frown.

"All you need to do is your right arm to hold the pen, and it's okay if your left arm hurts." Xiao Qiao said urgently, and then lifted the quilt and struggled out of bed. Seeing that she was so persistent, Zhao Feng couldn't persuade her anymore, so he had to order someone to get pen, ink and paper for her to paint.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, since Cai Lun improved papermaking, paper has begun to be used in large-scale production. However, at this time, most of the paper was rough yellow paper, which was brittle and thick, and was generally used for wrapping, pasting and stuffing. Only some of the more delicate and soft paper produced in the Jiangdong area was used by these literati and artists to write and paint. At that moment, Zhao Feng ordered someone to take a few pieces of yellow paper, and ordered someone to polish the ink, Xiao Qiao used the pen like flying, and painted four portraits in an instant.

"Come on, hand it over to Lord Lu with me, let him stick it in front of the fourth gate of Chaisang, and offer a reward of 300 yuan for the arrest of this person!" Zhao Feng handed over the several portraits he had painted to his own soldiers, and asked Lu Yi to go according to the map. Ma Zhong is not familiar with the place in Chaisang, he has nowhere to hide, and he can't get out of the city, so he is afraid that he will be arrested in a few days.

"Thank you, General Zhao!" Xiao Qiao reluctantly wanted to thank her, but the wound on her left shoulder hurt so much that she grinned.

"You'd better not move." Zhao Feng saw that she was so excited, and her emotions were really unstable for a while, and she really didn't want her to leave any psychological shadows because of this, so he also diverted the topic and said, "Why did this Ma Zhong come to you for trouble?" ”

Xiao Qiao's expression on his face was stunned when he heard this, and then he shook his head and smiled bitterly. "Brother-in-law, you are stupid, this sister is so beautiful, that bastard naturally wants to rob her back to be his wife." On the side, Zhen Mi pouted.

"Little girl, you have exalted him, just because he does not have the courage to do so." Xiao Qiao smiled bitterly.

"Could it be Sun Quan?" Zhao Feng frowned and asked.

"How did the general know?" Xiao Qiao was shocked when he heard this, which was undoubtedly a tacit acquiescence to Zhao Feng's guess.

"I guess, when Gongjin was dying, he asked me to ask you to be careful of whom, but unfortunately he didn't finish a sentence and choked. Now it seems that it should be Sun Quan. "Zhao Feng is half speculative and half godlike. Thinking of what happened, Zhao Feng couldn't help but feel a little gloomy in his heart.

"Gong Jin!" Xiao Qiao muttered the name of her dead husband, but for a while tears rained down. Suddenly, she raised her head and said hatefully: "General Zhao, when you are in Poyang City, why do you want to use me to frame Gong Jin?" ”

"Huh?" Zhao Feng saw that she suddenly pointed the finger at himself again, and he couldn't react for a while, but then he understood that she was now emotional, and her thinking was very strong. At the moment, he also sighed and said: "Soldiers are not tired of cheating." However, I didn't expect Sun Quan to be so ruthless, I thought that he would only imprison Zhou Gongjin, so that I could still let him work for the Lord after I broke through Jiangdong. I didn't expect it to end like this. "Don't say it's Zhao Feng, when Zhou Yu said it, even if Sun Ce had a spirit in the sky, I am afraid he would not have thought that there would be such a result between his own brother and the worship brothers.

In fact, Zhao Feng's understanding of Sun Quan mainly comes from history books, and this understanding cannot be said to be inaccurate, but he still ignores one point, that is, when he fought Jiangdong, Sun Quan was eighteen years old, and compared with Sun Quan, who had been in Jiangdong for eight years during the Battle of Chibi in history, there was still a big gap between personal strategy and leadership methods. In this situation, in the face of the attack of foreign invaders, Sun Quan naturally had to settle down first in the outside. Under the effect of suspicion, it is also possible to kill Zhou Yu. In addition, because of Xiao Qiao, Sun Quan also vented his envy, jealousy and hatred on Zhou Yu. If it were replaced by the same Sun Quan eight years later in history, he would naturally be able to distinguish the priorities and not destroy the Great Wall like this.

To make a comparison that may not be completely accurate, Sun Quan is like Emperor Chongzhen, who just succeeded to the throne during the Ming Dynasty. was also an eighteen-year-old boy who ascended the throne, and under the same suspicion, Chongzhen also killed the general Yuan Chonghuan because of a counter-plot. If Sun Quan had been able to stay in power for a few more years, he would not have made such a mistake. Of course, Zhao Feng didn't give him such a chance.

These thoughts flashed in Zhao Feng's mind, but Xiao Qiao sneered when he heard this: "What the general said is really light, he knows that he is not an opponent, so he uses such despicable tricks to kill Gong Jin." In vain, I should say that you are a humble gentleman, but I didn't expect that you were a despicable villain! "She's emotional right now, and she's really thinking of what to say.

"You woman is so unreasonable, she still depends on others when her husband dies, and you have the ability to settle accounts with Sun Quan!" Zhen Mi was furious when she saw that Xiao Qiao was so arrogant. "Forget it, Xiao Mi. You women will not understand the war. Zhao Feng sighed and said. Staring straight at Xiao Qiao, Zhao Feng said in a deep voice: "Zhou Gongjin's life is fate, isn't it my Xuzhou army's more than 100,000 lives?" is the same as all living beings, the people of the big man, why favor one over the other? When it was said that in the first battle of Shenting Ridge, nearly 10,000 soldiers in Xuzhou died at his hands. Counting his two calculations of the Jingzhou army, there are 80,000 people who died in his hands, if not 100,000. You think he is wronged, so who is not wronged? "Zhao Feng is not a temperamental person, she has been angry these days, and now he can barely vent it.

"That's it!" Zhen Mi is now the only one who is looking at Zhao Feng, and hurriedly followed the help. Xiao Qiao was a little stunned when he heard this, his mouth opened and he didn't say anything in the end, and finally sat down on the edge of the bed, tears falling again.

"Forget it, you can rest and recuperate. I'll tell you when I catch Ma Zhong. Zhao Feng didn't want to see a woman crying, so he sighed and pulled Zhen Mi away. In the next few days, Xiao Qiao didn't say anything after recuperation, but Diao Chan occasionally went to see her, and the two could talk quite well.

After a few days, the New Year was getting closer and closer, and on this day, Zhao Feng was busy arranging the items needed for the New Year at home, but a soldier came running and said: "General, Lord Lu sent a small one to tell you that person has been caught!" ”

"Oh? Caught? "Zhao Feng is also a musician, and it won't be long before Lu Yi personally leads someone to escort Ma Zhong to Zhao Feng's mansion." General Zhao, General Zhao, the little one has no grievances with you, you can let the small one live! As soon as Ma Zhong was escorted into the door of Zhao Feng's house, he immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

"It stinks!" Zhao Feng saw that Ma Zhong was in rags, his hair was scattered, and there was a foul smell emanating from his body, and he suddenly felt a little sick to his stomach. "General Zhao, this guy disguised himself as a beggar to ask for food in Chaisang City, and today he was hungry and grabbed the child's cake to eat, but he didn't want to grab my nephew's head and was arrested." Lu Yi explained.

Damn, Zhao Feng really wants to worship Ma Zhong, who is known as the head of the top ten giant killers of the Three Kingdoms in history. Even such a creative thing as snatching a child's baked cake can be done, this Ma Zhong is really a talent. "Ma Zhong, you killed Qiao Xuan in Wancheng. Murder pays for life, and now is the time for you to give your head. Zhao Feng snorted, ordered someone to escort him to a hut in his backyard, and exchanged a few words with Lu Yi before sending him away.

"Ma Zhong caught it." Zhao Feng said to Xiao Qiao, who was already half of his injuries. It's a very simple sentence, and it's up to her to do it. Xiao Qiao's mood is very unstable these days, and Zhao Feng is too lazy to touch this mold. If it weren't for the fact that she had just experienced the pain of losing her father, it was really pitiful, and Zhao Feng didn't even bother to care about it.

When Xiao Qiao heard Zhao Feng's words, he suddenly jumped up and said, "Where is he?" I will kill him with my own hands to avenge my father!" ”

"He's in the backyard cabin, you can go yourself." After Zhao Feng said this, he handed her a dagger, which was the one that Ma Zhong used to stab her in the first place. I don't know what kind of complex he had, but he picked up the dagger at that time.

Xiao Qiao took the dagger handed by Zhao Feng with some trembling, gritted his teeth and turned around and walked towards the backyard. "Brother-in-law, she shouldn't really kill someone, right?" Zhen Mi's tone was already a little frightened.

"I don't know!" Zhao Feng really told the truth this time. To be honest, he didn't know if he was doing it right or not, looking at Xiao Qiao's gritted teeth these days, Zhao Feng really didn't want her to be surrounded by hatred all the time. Although there was not much contact, Zhao Feng knew that Xiao Qiao was definitely not a murderous person. The reason why she behaves so ruthlessly is because she has nothing to rely on now, and she can only take care of herself if she behaves ruthlessly enough.

After about a cup of tea, Xiao Qiao walked back in despair, the dagger was still in his hand, and there was no trace of blood on the sewing of the dagger.

She still couldn't do it after all.

Looking at Zhao Feng and Zhen Mi, the dagger in Xiao Qiao's hand fell to the ground with a "dang bang", and then he covered his face and squatted down and cried bitterly. Zhao Feng and Zhen Mi sighed and comforted her together. After a while, Xiao Qiao stopped crying, looked at the two in front of him, and remembered that he had been taken care of by them all these days, but he was often angry at his master, and Xiao Qiao suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, Zhao Feng didn't embarrass her too much, and quickly diverted the topic. At this time, it was the twenty-sixth day of the lunar month, and Zhao Feng ordered someone to slaughter Ma Zhong, and asked his entourage to take his head back to Jiaozhou and hand it over to Sun Quan, warning him not to have nothing to do in the future. In the retention of Diao Chan and Zhen Jiang, Xiao Qiao stayed in Chaisang for the New Year. As for Qiao Xuan, Jiang Gan had already restrained him and buried him.

After the Chinese New Year, Xiao Qiao, who had recovered from his injuries, said goodbye to Zhao Feng and went home. "Thank you General Zhao for rescuing me twice, the great grace is not to be said, the little woman is willing to be a cow and a horse in the next life." When parting, Xiao Qiao said solemnly as a courtesy.

Diao Chan didn't say anything, but Zhao Feng frowned when he heard this, and pretended to ask casually, "What are your plans in the future?" ”
