Chapter 15: True and False Yuan Shizhong
At the moment when he was lifted up by the man, Yuan Chen closed his eyes.
At that moment, she remembered Wu Ruojie, his evil smile, his kiss, his gentle words, and his sinful behavior. Suddenly, she jerked her eyes open again. No way! He can't die yet, he must return to modern times, and he must take Wu Ruojie back, and let Wu Ruojie give an explanation of his crimes in front of the law. If he is sentenced to prison, he will wait for him, and wait for him to love himself innocently once after he is cleared, no matter how long he waits......
Thinking of this, Yuan Chen made up his mind, wrapped his arms around the man's neck with one hand, and slammed his other elbow hard behind him, but his body struggled to break free to the other side. In her opinion, if her elbow hits the man's face, the man will inevitably let go because of the pain, and she can also take the opportunity to break free from the restraints, although she will fall to the ground, but relatively speaking, this is a good result.
Both arms were pushed back, and there was a dislocation-like pain, but Yuan Chen still gritted his teeth and insisted. The man was indeed scratched on his nose by her elbow, and tears were in his eyes. However, the man's willpower was extraordinary, and he still held Yuan Chen and did not let go. The final blow didn't work, and that's the end of it. Yuan Chen's heart was cold. But for some reason, the man didn't fall her, but slowly put her back on the ground.
After Yuan Chen stood firmly, he rubbed his shoulders with both hands and looked at the man with a painful expression. The man rubbed his nose, wiped his tears, looked at her with a surprised expression, and asked, "What's your name?" ”
"Me?" Yuan Chen was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect the other party to ask this question, she subconsciously concealed her real name, which was a habit when she was a sleeper or temporary undercover agent in the police force. However, it was almost a day since she arrived in ancient times, but she didn't prepare an ancient name for herself, so she was speechless for a while.
"Yes, it's you, is there someone else in front of me?" The man said.
"Secret." Yuan Chen remembered the effect of these two words just now, so he said it again.
"Ha......" the man laughed, "There is nothing that I, Yuan Shangguang, want to know but can't know." No one has ever dared to reply to me like that. ”
Yuan Chen glanced at the man, thinking to himself, this man was actually surnamed Yuan like himself. In just one day, I have already met Yuan Shizhong and Yuan Shangguang, but that one is a money greedy ghost, and this one is an arrogant maniac.
"What? Not convinced? The man who claimed to be Yuan Shangguang said, "If it weren't for my subordinates' mercy just now, I'm afraid you would have been broken into two by now." ”
"Nonsense, let's try again?" Although Yuan Chen knew that the other party let her go, she refused to admit it, and she didn't know why the other party let her go.
"Haha," Yuan Shangguang laughed a few more times, "Okay, then I'll accompany you to practice, just relax your muscles and invigorate your blood, I want to see when you can win me." ”
"Haha......" The surrounding soldiers laughed.
Yuan Chen was annoyed and ashamed, stepped forward with an arrow, and punched Yuan Shangguang. Yuan Shangguang did not dodge, but grabbed her fist.
Yuan Shangguang's hand was too big, and Yuan Chen's small fist was completely wrapped in it, unable to move. She struggled a few times, but couldn't break free, so she swung another fist at the other person, but was clamped on the wrist. raised his knee again, but was caught by the other party's legs. At this point, she was firmly controlled by Yuan Shangguang.
Yuan Shangguang pursed his lips and smiled proudly, and the soldiers around him also laughed.
Yuan Chen wanted to cry without tears, but he heard someone shouting outside: "Guang'er, you are messing around again!" Yuan Shangguang immediately smiled, let Yuan Chen go, and knelt on one knee. The surrounding soldiers were no longer noisy, but bowed their heads and made way for a way, and knelt on both sides. Yuan Chen didn't kneel, rubbed his wrists, and turned his head to look.
A group of men and horses walked in, the first one rode a tall white horse, this person had a kind face, beautiful hair fluttering, no weapon in his hand, but several mounts behind him were all soldiers wearing heavy armor and holding blades, and then there was a group of soldiers, the head of the soldiers held a large flag, and a big character was written on it - "Yuan".
Yuan Chen was surprised, a military general raised his gun and pointed it, and shouted: "When you see the general, why don't you kneel?" ”
"General?" Yuan Chen whispered silently, and was about to say something more, but Yuan Shangguang, who was kneeling beside him, bent his legs to his legs with two fingers, his legs were weak, and he knelt down on one knee, and he really wanted to struggle, but Yuan Shangguang pressed his hand on her shoulder, and she felt that she was overwhelmed by Mount Tai's strength and couldn't stand up.
"Guang'er," the leader said, "What are you doing?" ”
"Back to Daddy," Yuan Shangguang actually called him, "the child is interrogating a suspected rebel assassin. ”
"Oh? The result? ”
"It has been verified by the child that he is not an assassin." Yuan Shangguang said.
Yuan Chen was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look at Yuan Shangguang. She thought he would hand herself over, but he didn't expect him to be sloppy for himself.
Yuan Shangguang ignored Yuan Chen, still bowed his head and said, "But that person over there is really a rebel deserter." As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed at the man Yuan Chen met outside the city.
The man was so frightened that he trembled, and he didn't know what to say, but he just kowtowed and begged for mercy. The leader waved his hand, and several soldiers stepped forward and tied the man up.
"What about this man? Who is he? The leader pointed at Yuan Chen and asked.
"He's not an assassin, well, he's ......" Yuan Shangguang was speechless for a while, unable to answer.
Yuan Chen saw that Yuan Shangguang was asked, and thought to himself that he couldn't help but be righteous, so he introduced himself: "I am the assistant of King Xinshun's personal guard 'Flying Fox'. ”
"Haha!" The man said with a smile, "King Xinshun's personal guards are not seen by ordinary people, and the escort assistants are even less known. Who knows if what you say is true or false. ”
After hearing this, Yuan Chen let out a sigh of relief. She originally thought that if this person knew the assistant of the "Flying Fox", she would say that she was the new assistant of the "Flying Fox". didn't expect this person to even know the "flying fox". It seems that Li Zicheng has done a good job of secrecy. So, she thought for a moment and said, "Whether it's true or not, you can follow me out of the city, and you'll know." She suddenly remembered the corpses left in the courtyard with Wu Ruojie yesterday, judging from the current situation, this group of officers and soldiers and those corpses should be opposites, if they were told that those people were killed by themselves, they would probably believe their identities.
"Oh?" The leader was stunned, "What do you want us to see?" ”
"Back to the adult," Yuan Chen also learned to hug his fists like a soldier just now, "Yesterday, when some of Luo Rucai's subordinates escaped, they rested in a courtyard dozens of miles outside the North City Gate, and happened to be met by the villain, who killed He Yilong, Yuan Shizhong and Luo Rucai's two wives in one fell swoop. ”
"What did you say?" The leader suddenly shouted.
Yuan Chen was startled, and was about to look up, but Yuan Shangguang grabbed his neck, "You dare to talk nonsense!" ”
Yuan Chen felt that it was difficult to breathe, and asked with difficulty, "I...... What am I saying wrong? ”
"Do you know that the person in front of you is my father, General Yuan Shizhong, who was stationed in Xiangyang on the order of King Xinshun. How dare you say you killed Daddy last night? Yuan Shangguang said.
"What?" Yuan Chen was confused, not knowing what was going on.
"Boy!" Yuan Shizhong said with a solemn face, "You dare to slander this official as Luo Rucai's comrade, what are your intentions?" ”
Yuan Chen was a little dazed, and he was speechless for a while.
"My lord! The little ones know what's going on! Just as she was trying to remember, she was suddenly disturbed by a shout, and when she looked back, it was the man who had been tied up just now.
"Oh?" Yuan Shizhong turned his head to look, waved his hand, and several soldiers brought the man over. Yuan Shangguang also slowly let go of the hand holding Yuan Chen's neck.
"You say." Yuan Shizhong said to the man.
"My lord," said the man with a crying voice, "the villain knows what is going on, but the villain has a request, after I finish speaking, can you not kill the villain and let the villain go?" ”
"Don't bargain with me, do you talk about it?" Yuan Shizhong said angrily.
"Yes, yes." The man hurriedly said, "Actually, the villain knows that person, that person's name is Yuan Zhongzhong, and he is the villain's cousin, and the villain's name is Yuan Zhongli......"
"Who asked you what your name was!" Yuan Shangguang shouted.
"Yes, yes." Yuan Zhongli hurriedly said, "That's the case, my cousin and I were originally farmers, but later I heard that there was money, meat to eat, and women to join the rebel army...... Well, that's a lot better than farming, so we joined the army, but we didn't do it for a month. Yuan Zhongli swallowed and spat, and continued, "But in this month, we found that we were with the wrong person, and Luo Rucai didn't consider the feelings of our subordinates at all. He was very greedy, and he pocketed most of the money and food he had, and only gave us a very small part. He didn't like women, so he killed them all and let his brothers be greedy...... My cousin and I thought we would make a small fortune, but we didn't catch it at all. So when Luo Rucai was killed yesterday, my cousin made a risky move, pretending to be General Yuan, to meet with Luo Rucai's subordinate He Yilong, and promised to have heavy troops to meet them in the north of the city this morning, and He Yilong was in a hurry, and he also believed his cousin's words and promised to give half of the silver tickets on his body to his cousin......"
Hearing this, Yuan Chen suddenly realized, why did the fake Yuan Shizhong fight with everyone last night because of a little silver ticket, and he was beaten to death, it turned out that Wu Ruojie had already seen through that he was a villain who was for money and women. And last night Wu Ruojie said that a month after Luo Rucai's death, Yuan Shizhong was killed by Li Zicheng due to betrayal. I see. However, listening to Yuan Zhongli say this, it seems that Luo Rucai is not a good person. At this point, Yuan Chen's good impression of Luo Rucai disappeared.
"Then why didn't you go with your cousin?" Yuan Shangguang interjected and asked.
"I'm timid." The man smiled bitterly, "If this ticket is done, I can get a big pen." But if you can't do it, you will be recognized by He Yilong, and you will inevitably die. Even if he wasn't recognized, wasn't he killed by King Xinshun's guards? The man said, pointing at Yuan Chen.
"Haha!" Yuan Shizhong said with a smile, "It seems that this little brother really contributed, the old man blamed you just now." ”
Yuan Chen smiled uncomfortably.
"Then, there is little brother Lao, accompany the old man to take a trip to see those corpses, so as to correct the old man's name." Yuan Shizhong said to Yuan Chen.
I'm afraid it won't work if I don't go, so Yuan Chen nodded. But what's the use of having a proper name? Yuan Shizhong, you only have one month to live. Yuan Chen thought.
The soldier pulled over the two horses, Yuan Shangguang turned over and stepped on, Yuan Chen stood in front of the horse, but hesitated. Because she had grown up in the city since she was a child, and had never ridden a horse, she felt a little scared when such a behemoth stood in front of her.
"Get on the horse and go!" Yuan Shangguang urged.
Yuan Chen stepped on the pedals hard, the horse snorted with a "poof", she was so frightened that she screamed "ah", which startled the people around her, she looked around embarrassedly, feeling embarrassed, so she stiffened her head and slowly climbed onto the horse's back.
When the horse team walked, Yuan Chen was so frightened that he hugged the horse's neck with both hands and closed his eyes, but he remembered that he still had to lead the way, so he barely opened his eyes.
It was much faster to have horses, and not long after leaving the north city gate, Yuan Chen saw the courtyard and told the team to stop.
Yuan Shangguang rushed into the courtyard gate first, some guards followed, and then Yuan Shizhong slowly walked into the courtyard gate, Yuan Chen and a few soldiers carried Yuan Zhongli, who was tied up by five flowers, and then walked in, and the rest of the soldiers scattered around the courtyard.
When Yuan Chen walked to the gatehouse, he glanced to the left. In that room, she and Wu Ruojie used to be so close together, sheltering from the rain together, baking the fire together, wrapping naked in the quilt together to keep warm, and being together **...... But now, where is Wu Ruojie? Will he miss her as much as she thinks of him?
Walking through the gatehouse, Yuan Chen slowly walked to the courtyard with Yuan Shizhong, where Yuan Shangguang and the guards were already standing, but they were stunned in front of several corpses.
Yuan Chen knew that those corpses, those who were beheaded were Li Zicheng's subordinates, as well as He Yilong, who was shot by himself, and Yuan Shizhong, who was killed alive by everyone, that is, Yuan Zhongzhong.
But when she approached, she was taken aback and froze in place.
