Chapter 8: The Past

The emperor ordered, Xiao Qiyu did not dare to slack off, and led the elite soldiers to investigate from the interior of the capital first, which made people panic and the people remarked. At this time, it was curfew time, and every household closed its doors and windows, and among the hurried figures, the few figures rushing towards the hidden corners did not seem to be noticeable.

The oil lamp at the door lit up, instead of the sun, illuminating the bustling capital of Nanshu, and the patrol guards were guarding the key entrances, waiting for orders at any time.

Dou Qingshuang was sitting in a house in a deep alley, looking coldly at the woman standing in front of her.

There was only one kerosene lamp lit in the room, which dimmed the surroundings, and the girl in front of her was delicate and slender, with red eyebrows and thin eyes, a dark complexion, red lips slightly down, sharp eyes, and a long knife with a cold light in her hand.

When the woman entered, she was locked, and there were only two windows around her that were only enough to ventilate, and it was impossible to escape.

"Daddy said you were Dou Qingshuang, but I didn't believe it." The woman's long eyebrows like feather jade frowned slightly, and a layer of water vapor faintly floated under her eyes, "If you are not, then you should die, if so, then you should die even more." ”

The woman didn't give Dou Qingshuang a chance to react, her toes were light, and the person swept by like a light swallow, and the long knife flickered with a single move, and there were thousands of remnants of sword qi, spinning like a hurricane.

The sword qi slashed down several strands of Dou Qingshuang's long hair, but she stood still, her eyes staring at the girl who rushed over, just when the tip of the sword was only a few inches away from her, revealing a flaw, Dou Qingshuang raised her hand, and the porcelain bottle that flew out was cut and shattered in an instant, and the spicy pepper powder pasted the girl's face.

"Ahh The girl screamed, her body fell to the ground unsteadily, the long knife was broken several pieces, and she rolled on the ground covering her cheeks, and the whole world was only choking and spicy.

Dou Qingshuang picked up the teapot on the table, splashed the tea on the girl's face, pressed her hands to prevent her from rubbing her eyes, and her voice was cold and abnormal, "Weng Baiwei, after so many years, you still don't have any progress." ”

Weng Baiwei's eyes were flushed, tears welled up in her eyes, and she looked at her in a daze, "You, you." ”

The door was kicked open all of a sudden, and three or five people dressed in black broke in, led by an old man, he glanced at the messy surroundings, and his eyes fell on the long knife beside Weng Baiwei, and he immediately understood, full of grief and indignation: "Bastard!" ”

Everyone hurriedly helped the two of them up, but the old man kicked Weng Baiwei's calf, "You kneel down for me!" ”

Weng Baiwei's legs were weak, and she knelt on one knee, but her face was unconvinced, "Daddy, why do you want me to kneel to her?" If she had the flesh of the gate, she would not submit to the royal family! ”

She met Dou Qingshuang with her gaze and said sarcastically, "Look, we have tried our best to find her, but what about her? Step on the corpse of your loved ones and enjoy the glory and wealth that comes from almsgiving! What can she do with this look? Daddy, sober up! ”

"Shut up," the old man slapped the back of Weng Baiwei's head, looking at Dou Qingshuang with some cloudy eyes, the look in his eyes was complicated, but more was remorse, his eyes were full of tears, and his knees were bent, and he wanted to kneel down.

Dou Qingshuang stepped forward to support him, Mu Ran's eyes trembled faintly, "Vice General Weng, if my father sees you like this, he will punish me for three days to keep a vigil in the mourning hall." ”

The old man looked up at her violently, grief-stricken, "It's the last general who can't stand the general!" ”

Dou Qingshuang's thoughts suddenly pulled the past to his eyes.

The old man is his father Dou Chunting's most powerful deputy general Weng Zheng, when he won the battle and returned drunk, Weng Zheng carried the drunk Dou Chunting back, and saw her climbing on the laurel tree from a distance, and would wave and greet her from afar, and occasionally when Dou Qingshuang was bored, he would tell her that Dou Chunting led them to fight.

Later, Weng Zheng will be followed by a small white radish, it is Weng Baiwei, she is timid, not smart, she will only follow behind Dou Qingshuang stupidly, but like her father, she has a sub-axis energy, and if she recognizes one thing, she will not easily make any changes.

Just like the previous killing move, it was Dou Tiankuo who taught her in her spare time, Xiao Weng Bai Wei remembered that after practicing for many days, there was finally a flaw, and until now, that flaw has not changed.

What moved Dou Qingshuang was that it was only about ten years later, and Weng Zheng suddenly aged dozens of years, like a dead wood about to die, sad and sad.

"It's that I can't live with the general, I'm sorry for my wife, I'm sorry for the Dou family," Weng Zhengchang burst into tears, and the guilt and remorse that were deeply pressed in his heart could no longer be suppressed from gushing out, trembling lightly, and he was full of grief, "When the general noticed that there was a black hand in the future, it was when the two armies were fighting, and the lives of hundreds of thousands of personal soldiers were killed, how could the general abandon them?" How to discard them! ”

At the critical moment of the battle between the two armies, the life of the family was also threatened, and in a sinister environment, Dou Chunting insisted on transferring an elite army, so that Weng Zheng led the elite soldiers back to Nanshu to protect the house, not thinking that the black men were too fast, and when the elite soldiers arrived, the Dou family had been wiped out.

To this day, Weng Zheng still remembers the tragic situation at that moment. Up and down the Dou Mansion, slaves and maids, cats, dogs, chickens and ducks, and even the little yellow bird who loves to sing has not escaped the black hand, the heavy blood condenses into rivers and meanders in the low places, and the smell of blood is like a huge net, which covers people solidly and makes people breathless.

At that time, there were many people who rushed to hear the news, and when they saw this hellish misery on earth, they were afraid or sad, and they vomited.

He kept looking for the corpses, crying, with a glimmer of hope, until he saw Mrs. Dou covered in blood, the little flower dog who always loved to bite his trouser legs, the old butler who always smiled at him, it was at that moment that Weng Zheng collapsed and turned white overnight.

The sky was slightly bright, and the news of Dou Chunting's defeat came from Beijing, and Dou Tiankuo was captured by the enemy and humiliated to death.

Weng Zheng did not withstand the blow and fell.

When he woke up again, his subordinates told him the shocking good news that Dou Qingshuang was still alive. But what is worrying is that Dou Qingshuang is also exposed to the sun because of this, and those jackals hidden in the dark will definitely show their fangs again and tear Dou Chunting's only bloodline.

Fortunately, in the end, Dou Qingshuang was sent to her aunt, and not long after, she was sent to the countryside for treatment because of her illness.

"I wanted to go to the countryside to pick you up, but I was afraid of attracting attention," Weng Zheng wiped away his tears and said in a deep voice: "And the enemy inside and outside, the emperor was worried about the internal instability caused by the leakage of military power, so he took the military order back." ”

If you don't have enough strength, even if you find Dou Qingshuang, you can't save her.

"The emperor is suspicious, after I handed over my power, the rest of the soldiers left by General Dou are the elite soldiers left by General Dou, in order to avoid trouble, I resigned from my official position," Weng Zheng looked at her, "Now that you are back, I can be regarded as living up to the general's trust, and returning this elite army to you is a loss of life, and I will also avenge the general and his wife!" ”

Several young men standing beside Weng Zheng knelt down silently, showing their loyalty.

There was a sudden silence in the room.

"Daddy, I'll just say it," Weng Baiwei gritted her teeth, glared at Dou Qingshuang angrily, and suddenly smiled, "She is used to living a life of abundant wealth and food, and now she is going to marry a wishful husband, where does she remember those bloody hatreds?" ”

Dou Qingshuang said indifferently, "According to what you think, what should it be?" ”

Weng Baiwei hated: "Naturally, kill them all!" ”

They should have lived a satisfying life, but because of the emperor's suspicion, Daddy handed over his power and hid in the capital in embarrassment.

She hates, hates these people for disrupting their lives, and hates the current Dou Qingshuang, who is always so indifferent!

"How to kill? Kill whom? Dou Qingshuang helped Weng Zheng sit down, his fingers caught his pulse, thoughtfully, and suddenly raised his eyebrows: "Qingtian rushed into the capital during the day, and then was slaughtered as an assassin?" ”

"Even if you tell you who you are when you are caught, which one of the people in the criminal world is a vegetarian? When you really find out the truth, I'm afraid you won't be able to stand the torture for a long time. You are full of confidence in these hundreds of elite soldiers, but in the face of the millions of lions in Nanshu, where did you get the courage and confidence to think that you have won? ”

Weng Baiwei was stunned by her question, and muttered: "We didn't think about living, and it was enough to pull some cushions before we died!" ”

"In your eyes, Dou's life is life, but your father's life is not life?" Dou Qingshuang withdrew her hand, her eyes were calm, like a sharp blade, straight to the hearts of the people, "These elite soldiers who finally survived are not human lives?" ”

Weng Zheng was moved, "Ah Shuang." ”

Several young people kneeling on the ground were stunned, and looked up at Dou Qingshuang in some shock.

In fact, they are no longer the elite soldiers of the past, those elite soldiers either return to the hidden mountains, or marry wives and have children to live an ordinary life. They are all children abandoned by their parents, and then adopted and trained by these veteran soldiers, and they have only been sent to Weng Zheng in recent years.

Their lives were saved by elite soldiers, and their skills were taught by Weng Zhengjiao, so even if they went up the knife mountain and went down to the oil pot, they would not give up.

The girl in front of her was thin and short, clearly dressed in men's clothes, but between her eyebrows was calm and stable, and her Mu Ran's eyes were bottomless, as if there was power in them, like a beast that had collected its claws. It's like the old soldiers and the forbearance generals they described.

Dare to ask who in this world does not cherish their lives? Who wants to be as worthless as that apparition? Such were their lives, but the maiden said that their lives were equal to those of the general.

It's admirable, but it's humbling.

Shame that their thoughts before were the same as Bai Wei's!

One of them said: "Our lives are at the disposal of the young master!" It is by no means a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death. ”

Even if an enemy can't be killed, they must not let the enemy underestimate their little young master.

Hengzhi is just a life, and Weng Zheng is also planning to do this, but unexpectedly, Weng Baiwei on the side turned pale, spurted out a mouthful of dirty blood, her body was weak, and she fell to the ground and did not wake up.
