Chapter 541: Wang Zhen is captured
There was a long sword around her neck, the cold blade of the sword pressed tightly against her skin, and the woman's eyes were wide with fright, and her whole body was trembling.
"The piano rhythm is very messy, and my son doesn't like it very much!" Holding the long sword and sticking the long sword to the woman's neck, Wang Zhen said coldly: "If you dare to say half a word, beware that the long sword in my hand does not know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade!" ”
Seeing that Wang Zhen was rude to the woman, Wang Liu, who originally wanted to step forward to dissuade him, sat down again.
Although she and Wang Zhen have known each other for a short time, she believes that Wang Zhen is by no means the kind of person who draws a sword casually. The reason why she drew her sword must have sensed that something was wrong.
The plain-clothed woman who was held hostage by Wang Zhen pitifully cast a distressed look at Wang Liu for help.
But she didn't expect that if she only cared about panicking and didn't cast a look at Wang Liu for help, Wang Liu might feel that Wang Zhen had gone too far.
When the plain-clothed woman's eyes fell on Wang Liu, Wang Liu's brows furrowed slightly, and her eyes stared at her without blinking.
"Click" Just as Wang Liu and the plain-clothed woman looked at each other, Wang Zhen's sword-holding arm suddenly bent, twisted it hard, and broke the woman's neck.
I didn't expect Wang Zhen to suddenly attack the plain-clothed woman, Wang Liu was stunned, Wang Zhen jumped in front of her, pulled her up, and shouted: "Go!" ”
Dragged by Wang Zhen, Wang Liu subconsciously rushed towards the door. At the moment when they were about to jump to the door, Wang Zhen and Wang Liu's faces changed suddenly, and the two of them quickly separated and jumped to the side.
Just as they were rushing to the side, the door was kicked open from the outside, and a rain of arrows flew into the room.
"Take them down!" The rain of arrows was shot by more than a dozen archers with longbows, and after the archers shot the rain of arrows, one of the officers who led the people blocking the door shouted behind him.
As soon as the officer's shout fell, more than a dozen Huainan soldiers armed with shields and short spears rushed into the house.
Due to the timely evasion, Wang Zhen and Wang Liu were not injured by the arrows, and when more than ten heavy infantry of the Huainan Army rushed into the house, Wang Zhen shouted, holding the long sword that had been unsheathed, and counterattacked towards one of the Huainan troops.
A Huainan soldier rushed into the house, very close to Wang Liu, and when he saw Wang Liu, the Huainan army rushed towards her, raised the short spear in his hand, and stabbed Wang Liu's heart with a loud roar.
Wang Liu didn't dodge either, and at the moment when the short spear in the Huainan army's hand had just stabbed out, she suddenly pulled out the long sword from her waist and slashed the long sword towards the Huainan army.
The long sword drew a brilliant arc of light and slashed across the chest of the Huainan army.
The Huainan army, who was holding a short spear and piercing Wang Liu, saw the long sword slashing towards him, and wanted to dodge, but he couldn't dodge at all.
As the arc light crossed, a stream of blood suddenly shot out of the Huainan army's chest, his eyes widened, and he fell to the ground.
On the other side, Wang Zhen, who was carrying a long sword and rushed towards the Huainan army first, raised her foot and kicked hard at the big shield in the hands of the Huainan army when she rushed to a Huainan army with a big shield in her hand.
This kick was fierce and ruthless, and the Huainan army kicked the people with the shield retreated backwards, just when he staggered back two steps, and the big shield in his hand was slightly deviated a little, the long sword in Wang Zhen's hand had pierced his throat like lightning.
More than a dozen Huainan soldiers rushed into the house, and they didn't think about how terrible the opponent they were facing. Originally, he wanted to capture the two people in the house and go back to ask for credit, but in an instant, they were killed by Wang Liu and Wang Zhen.
Seeing the Huainan troops who rushed into the house fall one by one, the officers standing at the door had round eyes and shouted: "Some more people who go in, whether they live or die, don't let them escape!" ”
As soon as the officer's shout fell, more than a dozen Huainan troops blocking the door immediately rushed into the room.
In the room, Wang Liu and Wang Zhen flew with long swords in their hands, and every time they swung a sword, a Huainan army sword fell to the ground.
Soon, the room was filled with corpses that had been impaled by swords. And Wang Liu and Wang Zhen have already been dyed into two bloody people by the rushing blood.
"Let's go!" There were more and more Huainan troops rushing into the house, and seeing that they were about to fall into a heavy siege, Wang Liu grabbed Wang Zhen and dragged her towards the window.
Seeing the two of them rushing to the window, the Huainan army in the house shouted in unison and rushed towards the two.
Although their reaction was very fast, compared with Wang Liu and Wang Zhen, it was much slower, and before they could rush to the window, the sisters had already jumped out of the window.
Although the small building has only two floors, its second floor is very different from today's two-story building concept.
Each floor is four or five people high, two floors stacked, or at least four stories tall in a building two thousand years later.
Jumping out of the window one after the other, Wang Liu and Wang Zhen tossed twice in mid-air and landed one after another.
Wang Liu's martial arts are more exquisite no matter what you say, and when she landed, she only stumbled back two steps before standing firmly.
But Wang Zhen was not as lucky as her, as soon as her feet landed, Wang Zhen felt her left foot rub suddenly, and a piercing pain suddenly hit her cerebellar cortex.
After landing, Wang Liu, who had already jumped forward two steps, heard a muffled snort behind him, and hurriedly glanced back.
What appeared in her sight was Wang Zhen pressing her ankle with one hand, squatting on the ground with a painful face.
Seeing this scene, Wang Liu hurriedly turned around, and was about to jump forward when he picked up Wang Zhen.
What she didn't expect was that Wang Zhen actually pushed her away, stared at her with round apricot eyes, and shouted at her: "Hurry up!" ”
Where is Wang Liu willing to go, after being pushed away by Wang Zhen, he turned back and wanted to step forward to pick her up again.
At this moment, a group of hundreds of Huainan troops rushed in from the outside and rushed towards Wang Zhen and Wang Liu!
"Let's go!" Turning his head to look at the Huainan army rushing up, Wang Zhen once again vigorously pushed Wang Liu away and shouted at Wang Liu.
Seeing a large group of Huainan troops rushing up, Wang Liu first turned his head and glared at the Huainan army rushing up with resentment, and then threw a reluctant glance at Wang Zhen.
"Let's go!" Seeing that Wang Liu was still hesitating, Wang Zhen was completely angry, her eyes widened, and she roared at Wang Liu: "If you don't leave, you don't want both of us to be arrested!" ”
Knowing that what Wang Zhen said was the truth, Wang Liu reluctantly threw a last glance at Wang Zhen and shouted to her: "Don't die, wait for me!" ”
After shouting, Wang Liu turned his head and rushed towards the courtyard wall.
Not long after she rushed away, a group of Huainan soldiers had already rushed to Wang Zhen, who was injured in the ankle and fell to the ground.
A sharp short spear pointed at Wang Zhen, sitting cross-legged on the ground, holding an ankle in his hand, his eyes widened, and he glared angrily at the Huainan army that surrounded her.
"Ran one!" Surrounding Wang Zhen, a soldier of the Huainan Army ran to the officer leading the army, clasped his fist at the officer and asked, "Do you want to chase after him?" ”
"Bring this person back, so that he will be tortured!" Turning his head to look at the wall of the soldier's finger, Wang Liu had already climbed over the wall, and the officer knew that even if he chased again, he might not be able to catch up, so he shouted to the soldiers surrounding Wang Zhen: "Wait for the general to fall!" ”
"No!" A group of soldiers answered, and four or five of them stepped forward, unloaded the long sword in Wang Zhen's hand, twisted her, and tied her up.
Wang Zhen was captured, and Wang Liu escaped from danger.
Just when Wang Liu climbed over the courtyard wall and into the nearby alley, his figure quickly disappeared. A young man stepped out of the corner, at the foot of the courtyard wall where she had just landed, looked in the direction where her figure had disappeared, and then turned and ran as fast as she could.
It didn't take long for a building in Yangzhou City. Deng Zhan, who was wearing civilian clothes, frowned tightly, listening to the report of the young man who saw Wang Liu jump out of the courtyard wall just now, and when the young man finished speaking, Deng Zhan waved his hand and said to the young man: "You return to Luoyang immediately and inform Your Highness that Wang Zhen was captured by the Huainan army!" ”
"No!" The young man answered, clasped his fists and arched towards Deng Zhan, turned around and exited the room.
"You and others immediately go to the various markets, pay close attention to Wang Liu's whereabouts, and once you find out, immediately come and inform General Ben!" When the young man retreated, Deng Zhan turned his head and said to the other nine men standing in the room: "Remember, when you see Wang Liu, if General Ben is not there, you must not show up and persuade him to return to Luoyang!" ”
After Deng Zhan's order, the nine men who had changed into the people's deep clothes responded with their fists in unison, and then withdrew from the room one after another.
After the nine men retreated, Deng Zhan put his hands behind his back, walked slowly to the window, looked at the street outside the window, did not tighten it tightly, and secretly thought in his heart, the Wang sisters dressed as men, and they had not yet attacked Yuan Shu, how did Yuan Shu's people find them?
With a mystery in his heart, Deng Zhan also felt puzzled, and after a long time, he let out a long sigh of helplessness.
Wang Zhen was captured in Yangzhou, but Liu Wei, who was thousands of miles away, was in the pavilion in the palace at this time, quietly listening to Cai Yan playing the piano.
In the days when he led the army, Liu Wei had a lot of things to do every day, and he didn't listen to a Yaoqin quietly for a long time.
What's more, since marrying Cai Yan, he has felt that all the musicians in this world will not play the rhythm of the piano as beautiful and touching as Cai Yan's piano sound.
The melodious sound of the piano echoed in the pavilion, drifting to the outside of the pavilion, and the flowers and plants outside the pavilion seemed to be intoxicated by the sound of the piano, blowing with the wind, gently twisting the body.
Bowing her head and stroking Yaoqin, Cai Yan's pretty face did not have the slightest expression, she was already intoxicated with the rhythm of the piano, and for many days of Liu Wei's campaign, Cai Yan, like Tang Ji and Tao Huanniang, missed her husband on the battlefield in the north every day.
Missing is an unspeakable pain, but I know in my heart that if there is no Liu Wei to go on the expedition, there will be no peaceful days for them, and Cai Yan only dares to bury this miss deep in his heart, and use the rhythm and rhetoric to resolve the grievances in the boudoir.
