Just as Ma Han and the beauty were drinking and whispering, five miles away from the dome tent where he was, a fierce quarrel was taking place in the dome tent of Xing Ju, the captain of the Karasuma school.
At this moment, Xing Ju was sitting upright, with an angry face on his face, glaring at the people under the tent. And the person who was targeted by this Han lieutenant who controlled Mobei Zhuhu was Yan Rou, who was considered by Ma Han to be knowledgeable and interesting.
At this moment, Mr. Yan Da no longer had the usual respect on his face, and in the face of the angry Xing Xiaowei, his face was calm, and his tone was calm: "Make Jun Mingjian, and give a golden mane to the imperial court, which is really the ear of the Han Jingbian." Have you not seen it all these days? Rou and his brother are more popular among the hus, than the envoys, and they are not far behind. Isn't it worthless to ride a horse? β
Xing Ju sneered: "Yan Ruoshui, I know that you have long wanted to enter the school captain's mansion, and you have also recruited you to join the scene, but you are too small to be an official, and you want to eat a big one when you open your mouth." Hmph, riding the position of Sima, are you worthy of such people? If it weren't for that, with your humble home and businessman's business, you would also be worthy of the same table as you? β
Yan Rou was originally calm, but when she talked about this background, her color suddenly changed, her fists slowly clenched, and her face was angry. Speaking of background, Xing Ju is just a person from a poor family and a branch of a family, and it is nothing in the Central Plains, especially in the places where families like Yingchuan, Nanyang, and Chenliu gather, but in front of a person like him who is from a humble background and is engaged in the business of business, it is enough to hold his head high and look at people with the corners of his eyes.
Yan Rou repeatedly sought to find out but could not do so, so he took the road of seeking an official in a curve. Taking advantage of Dong Zhuo's power, the chaos of the dynasty, he and his brother a large number of property into the offer, turnover for several months, and finally got the desired result, soon there was an edict in the court, set him up as the horse of the Captain of the Karasuma Captain's Mansion, and his brother Yan Zhi was engaged in history.
The Yan brothers bypassed Xing Ju in these moves, but as a result, Xing Ju just got the news, and he was immediately furious, and immediately recruited the Yan brothers to angrily reprimand him.
Yan Rou took a long breath and said lightly: "That Ma Jinglong, his origin is unknown, I am afraid that he is inferior to Rou, but the envoy tried his best to recruit him, and he did not hesitate to lure him with the position of a fake Sima." Hehe, that Ma Jinglong also has some eyesight, and he can't just say it, otherwise, within a year and a half, hundreds of his elite horsemen will change their surname to Xing......"
"Presumptuous! How dare you slander the king with such words? Li Gu, the military marquis standing behind Xing Ju, shouted angrily, bowed to Xing Ju and said, "Please give a sword to punish this rebellious man." β
Xing Ju was extremely angry, staring at Yan Rou with a pair of eyes, ignoring Li Gu's invitation, and said word by word: "In the future, your Yan Clan's city will be cancelled with your registration." β
Yan Rou stared at Xing Ju and said word by word: "My Yan clan doesn't need it anymore." β
Xing Ju narrowed his eyes, and he was cold: "Okay, let's see how long you can be a horsemanβdrive out!" β
Yan Rou sighed lightly, looked at Xing Ju with a very strange look, and shook his head: "It's hard to say how long Rou can be a horseman, but Rou knows how long Rou can be a captain of the Guardian Karasuma. β
This is crazy enough, and it can even be said to be heart-wrenching. Xing Ju was about to be furious, but at this moment, he saw Yan Rou's eyesβthere was something in them that made his heart palpitate. Why does the other party have such a look? Xing Ju faintly sensed something, and suddenly raised his hand to grab the thirty steel-refining knife beside him, threw it at Li Gu, and shouted: "Zhu Yan's clan!" β
"Yes!" Li Gu took the knife and drew his knife, and slashed at Xing Ju!
Xing Ju kept staring at Yan Rou's eyes, and when the other party's eyes reflected a murderous abnormal sword light, he was suddenly startled, and his body instinctively avoided it. In the scream, blood burst out, and a bloody arm flew up.
Xing Ju's broken arm was like a spring of blood, and in just a short moment, the ruddy and square face was as white as paper, twisted in pain, and his beard was stretched, and he stared at the black hand behind him viciously: "Li, Gu!" β
Li Gu, who was half bloodstained, was expressionless, and raised his knife again, but Yan Rou stopped him: "Wait." Then listen.
At this time, I heard a rush of leg footsteps and shouts outside the tent: "Envoy ...... Yes! β
The gold and iron struck, the blades penetrated into the flesh, and even the rustle of blood spraying on the grass could be heard, and one body after another fell to the ground. After a while, Yan Zhi's voice came from outside the tent: "Brother Yu, the matter has been harmonized." β
Yan Rou smiled with satisfaction, turned back to Xing Ju, who was stained all over his body, and said, "Look, what Rou said is true, so that Jun, the captain of the Guardian Karasuma, should come to an end." β
Xing Ju leaned half of his body on the short case and glared at the two of them: "You want to rebel!" β
"No, not to rebel, but to take its place." Yan Rou smiled and said, "Don't forget that I am a horse horse under the imperial court system, and the captain died in his post, and Sima replaced him, and this is the custom." β
Xing Ju sneered: "You killed Shangguan with your hands, and you still want to replace him?" β
Yan Rou looked surprised: "Where did you start with this?" Rou He once moved a finger of the envoy? The death of the king is another murderer. Rou also wants to cut off the murderer's head with her own hands to avenge the king! β
Xing raised his bloody finger to Li Gu, opened his blood-stained mouth and laughed, but unfortunately he could only make a few dumb sounds: "Sure enough, when the lackeys are used, they always have to cook......
"Don't misunderstand, the murderer is someone else." Yan Rou smiled, "Li Junhou's failure to stop the assassin in time is just a dereliction of duty. When Rou takes up the post of captain of Gokaramaru, he will be demoted, and of course, after a while, he will be reinstated and promoted. β
"You're looking for a scapegoat? Could it be ...... It's ......" Xing Ju was shocked.
Yan Rou nodded in affirmation: "As the envoy thinks, it is him." β
"So vicious, good means." Xing Ju gasped, and then sneered, "It's just that that person is not Xing, with his bravery, I am afraid that the little person you brought will not be enough to see." β
Yan Rou admitted frankly: "The two hundred private soldiers I brought with me are indeed not enough to surround and kill this person, but how about adding Li Junhou's three hundred horsemen?" Then, how about Karasuma being able to resist a hundred horsemen? How about Kebineng, Fu Luo Han, and Tho Luo Hou uniting thousands of Xianbei Jingqi? β
Xing Ju was already speechless in shock.
Yan Rou sighed lightly: "The reason why he dared to go into danger alone was because of the help of my two brothers, and the protection of the envoy. But now that his protection has fallen, and his assistance has turned to robbery, the Xianbei people and the Karasuma people no longer have any scruples. I believe that the Hu people are even more willing to kill him than I do. β
"You had a silver lining." Yan Rou finally said to Xing Ju, "The news that I am going to be appointed as a horse horse is something that I deliberately chose to release at this time. If you can tolerate my brother to stand sideways, Rou will not be rude to you. It's a pity that you have to force me to ......"
Yan Rou said, made a downward gesture to Li Gu, and turned around to leave the account. The moment he lifted the curtain, a resentful roar came from behind him: "Yan Rou! I'm waiting for you in the underworld......" The voice stopped abruptly.
Walking out of the tent, Yan Rou took a long breath, and there was also a thick blood in the air.
After a while, Yan Zhi, who was dressed in armor, and Li Gu, who was covered in blood and murderous, led a group of armored soldiers to gather over.
"Brother."
"Yan Sima, uh, Yan Envoy."
Yan Rou looked around left and right, full of pride, stared quietly in a certain direction to the west, and let out a long breath: "It's time to visit him, go." β
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(Historically, Yan Rou colluded with the Xianbei people and the Karasuma people to kill and protect the Karasuma captain Xing Ju and replace him, which happened around this time.) Yan Rou killed Xing Ju, which is right and which is wrong, there are too few historical materials to know. But according to the law of inverted effect as cause, the result is that the Hu people support Yan Rou to ascend to the throne by violent means, then, Yan Rou's ass must be sitting on the side of the Hu people, representing the interests of the Hu people, and his personal attributes are self-evident. οΌ
