Chapter 056: Yiren
If it weren't for the fact that there was still blood dripping from the scimitar in Qu Yiren's hand, Ah Xiao would definitely not believe that this gentle and tactful woman was so cruel and decisive.
I saw Qu Yiren raise his willow eyebrows and say loudly to the people in front of the gun village:
"Tonight be careful to keep the king's tent, for it is in the people. If there is a poor guard, the end will be like this. ”
She pointed to the puddle of flesh and blood that belonged to the tea shadow not far from her, and those who still had disdain and arrogance in their eyes were also shocked, and no one dared to speak again.
"Since the little master is here, follow me."
She looked at Ah Xiao, and her tone suddenly turned soft and gentle, but it made Ah Xiao's heart tremble, and she couldn't help but glance at the body of the tea shadow again.
Seeing her get on the horse and walk slowly, Ah Xiao also got on the horse and followed her.
Except for the torches in the hands of the guards around the gun village, the entire royal tent was almost in the dark night, and there was no light in sight.
"Forgive Ah Xiao for being abrupt, should the noble man first interrogate Cha Ying who is the accomplice and who is instructed by him before asking for her life."
Ah Xiao saw the posture of the entire Tiele king's tent and knew that it would be difficult tonight. In addition to the attacks from the outside, there are also people in the king's tent who are as difficult to distinguish as the shadow of tea, if you don't guard against it, this king's tent is really too difficult to hold.
Qu Yiren immediately tilted his head lightly, Ah Xiao didn't know if the light was too dark and saw the wrong eye, and always felt that there seemed to be endless pain and ominousness in her expression.
"In the eyes of the people in the king's tent, my identity is also dishonorable."
Ah Xiao was stunned for a moment, only to realize that he had not thought about it well for a while, and this reminder was obviously self-inflicted.
If she asks in front of those family members tonight, Cha Ying will definitely reply with the excuse that she deceived Ah Xiao, in that case, she will be convicted of being the concubine of King Tiele but the secret line of the Dachen Mission.
Obviously, she alone supported the guards of the king's tent tonight, and the guards and subordinates in the king's tent had the intention to despise and offend, and if they learned about it again, they would not be able to control them at all.
"It's Ah Xiao's improper consideration, don't blame the nobles."
Ah Xiao clasped his fists on the horse and saluted, and Qu Yiren stopped in front of him with his hand to signal him to silence.
Not far away, a voice was approaching in the layers of tents, and Ah Xiao pressed his hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist to quietly alert.
"Quyi people!"
A small group of men and horses came into view of a young man, who was about ten years old, and in the dim and faltering light, he could still clearly see that he was richly dressed and looked arrogant.
"Lord Shizi."
Qu Yiren gave Ah Xiao a look, and the two got off their horses and knelt on one knee and saluted the young man.
It is rumored that after the death of his eldest son, King Tiele did not have another son until the year of the Mandate of Heaven.
It was as if the horse had walked around them for a while, only to hear the prince snort coldly:
"You are just a slave and maid serving my father, how can you take on the responsibility of guarding the king's tent, my father is confused!"
As soon as this casual accusation of King Tiele came out, everyone was silent and stood aside.
The prince of Tiele seemed to be trying to save face, and then commanded the people:
"Arrange it all, listen to me, except for my family, the rest of the slaves and maids are scattered to guard the guns on both sides!"
"You and this kid", Ah Xiao's head was tapped with a horsewhip, it seems that he is what he calls "boy", and this son of the world regards himself as a descendant of the Quyi people. "I'll lift you two up and escort me tonight."
After the prince of Tiele finished explaining lightly, he ignored their reactions, and walked forward on his horse.
Ah Xiao looked at Qu Yiren's expression, and saw that although her eyes were full of anxiety, she still got on the horse and followed behind, so she had to sigh in her heart and follow.
Not far away, outside the south gate of the gun village, a group of people had gathered at this time, and someone in front tried to climb the gun fence and jumped in from the outside, but was beaten back by the guards guarding the village.
Inside and out, there was cursing and shouting, and gradually people began to shoot arrows and throw torches inside, and the surging crowd gradually boiled, and a conflict was no longer inevitable.
The high-spirited prince stood in the gate of the village with his hands in his hands, and shouted out loudly with the law of earth.
Qu Yiren smiled hard, his nervous expression loosened slightly, and explained to Ah Xiao:
"The prince said that if it is the people of the Wuluo realm, they can go back first, King Tiele has already dealt with the matter of the water source, and no one cares about what they did in the capital. If you want to trample on the king's tent, the more than 20,000 guards under the tent of King Tiele will definitely not be able to break through, and then the crime of rebellion will be a disaster of extermination. ”
Ah Xiao held the hilt of the sword with his hand, looked around the environment, and listened to her explanation, although this little man is young, the big truth he is talking about is indeed not bad at all.
The crowd gradually began to loosen, nearly half of the crowd left from the east side, Xiao Shizi looked at the people in front of him and behind him angrily, shook his head and sighed, and planned to leave with his hands.
At this moment, there was a terrible neighing sound of horses outside the gun village, and more than a dozen horses with burning torches hanging on their tails roared wildly towards the gun village, and the gun village where it went burst into flames, and the strong smell of fire oil wafted in the wind - I don't know when the rioters outside the village had already coated the outer layer of the gun village with tung oil.
"Shoot the arrows, shoot the horses!"
"Nobleman, Lord Shizi, the East Gate is fighting!"
Ah Xiao and Qu Yi glanced at each other - the crowd that had just withdrawn arrived at the east gate!
"Without further ado, you take care of the prince!"
Before Qu Yiren's words fell, the people had already driven their horses and galloped away.
At this time, the gun village in front of him had all been lit with fierce flames, and the guards and family members had no choice but to retreat again and again.
The bow and arrow could not shoot the fire horse that was running desperately under the back, and the fire at the tail of several horses had gradually burned to the body, and the pain was even more violent to rush forward, and the gun village was partially loosened under the burning, and there were traces of being crushed.
In a hurry, Ah Xiao had to pull over a guard beside him and push the little prince who was still unwilling to lose his aristocratic demeanor to him:
"Protect the son!"
He snatched the longbow and quiver from the guard's hand, galloped to the southwest corner, jumped up to the lookout that was not yet on fire, leaned over and drew his bow, and shot down several of the fire horses that were still galloping.
The front team took out their spears and rushed towards the burned gate, and the back team shot arrows like locusts from the sky, suppressing the guards in the village and unable to get close.
Ah Xiao held his breath and stared, and an arrow screamed through the air, hitting the leader in the throat, and then jumped from the lookout.
Ignoring the envy of the prince of Tiele, he bowed his head and persuaded him:
"Lord Shizi, the gate of the village can be broken immediately. I have already shot the leader of the rebels, and if you believe me, you might as well rush out of the gate and fight the remnants of the rebels. ”
The well-behaved guards and subordinates interpreted to Xiao Shizi in Tuxi Rhythm, and Shizi immediately nodded in agreement.
Ah Xiao led everyone to break through the loose gate of the village with spears, and engaged the remaining rebels outside the village, and the prince of Tiele, who was only about ten years old, also drew his sword at his waist and joined the battle.
Ah Xiao, who was obsessed with slashing and slashing the enemies who were gradually surrounding, suddenly noticed several sharp wind sounds stabbing in the air, and swung his sword to send out a piece of snow to block a rain of arrows from the enemy.
Eye-catching swept behind him, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, he swung his sword to cut down the vicious knife-wielding rebels in front of Xiao Shizi, protected him behind him and shouted:
"The prince's clothes are too bright, and the chaotic people know that your identity is valuable, and they all surround you."
Protecting him behind him in this way, the crowd slashed and killed for most of the hour before the rebels were repulsed.
Everyone looked at the corpses scattered on the ground and the people who were half missing beside them, and were silent for a while.
Ah Xiao picked up the quiver of the rebels on the ground and stared at it for a long time, and handed it to the prince of Tiele:
"Lord Shizi, this thing must be familiar to everyone."
Blue arrow feathers flickered in the firelight.
Yes, the Blue Feather Arrows of the House of Lamulon.
