Chapter 110: The Art of Attacking the Heart
The moment Taohong was woken up, she subconsciously went to look at Su Jin beside her, and was relieved to see her lying by her side safely and soundly.
The two quickly got up and cleaned up, Taohong helped Su Jin sit down, and as soon as she opened the door, she saw two stalemate men in the courtyard.
"You ...... What are you doing? Peach's gaze swept over the indifferent Lu Jun and the embarrassed Jun Ran, and finally fixed on the little child among them.
The child was only three or four years old, with two small pigtails, a pair of bright eyes, although he was held by Jun Ran, his two little hands tightly grasped the corners of Lu Jun's clothes and cried loudly.
Su Jin recognized at a glance that this was the child who was rescued in the ruins that day, and when she saw her crying so sadly, she couldn't help but feel a little distressed, and quickly stretched out her hand to hug her, "What did you do to this child, why did you cry like this?" ”
Lu Jun saw her stretch out her hand, and then looked at the crying child with a snotty face, pinched the handkerchief and wiped her with some disgust, and reluctantly took it, "I'm tired of holding the child, you're weak like this now, I'll hold it." ”
The moment he took it, the child suddenly stopped crying, grinning and hugging his neck and happily kicking his two calves, looking like he had succeeded in his plan.
"What a stinky girl who is interested in seeing color," Jun Ran touched his nose and followed in and muttered in a low voice, "I hugged all the way, but as soon as she saw Lu Jun, she stopped doing it, she had to hug him, how am I worse than him?" ”
Hearing Jun Ran's uneasy complaint, Su Jin also understood what was going on, and immediately laughed, "Maybe Lu Yan looks better." ”
When she said this, Jun Ran rolled her eyes, and Lu Jun smiled.
"What's your name?" Su Jin smiled and pinched the child's little face, and when she looked at it carefully, she felt that this child looked really cute.
The forehead is full, the eyebrows are curved, and the eyes are looking forward to life. Although it hasn't grown yet, I can already see the faint good color between my eyebrows and eyes, and I'm afraid that I'm going to be a beauty when I grow up.
"My name is Xiaohua," the child was not shy, and said to Su Jin with his finger in his mouth, "Xiaohua Xiaohua." ”
The corners of Su Jin's lips twitched, and sure enough, she heard Jun Ran suddenly speak on the side, "It's the same as your sister's name?" ”
"Sister?" Lu Jun raised his eyebrows and looked at Su Jin with some playfulness.
Su Jin was cheeky and didn't see it, and said to the little flower, "What's your surname?" ”
Xiaohua tilted her head and thought about it, and shook her head, "I don't know, I'll call Xiaohua." ”
Su Jin's eyes darkened.
Xiaohua is estimated to be the name that her parents gave at random in order to make a living, but the poor child's relatives have passed away, and there is no way to know the surname.
She touched Xiaohua's face with pity, saw her clear eyes and sighed slightly, suddenly remembered something, and opened her mouth to Lu Xuan.
"By the way, how is the situation of the enemy today?"
"You're still worried about this?" Jun Ran interjected on the side, "I shot an arrow at their barracks last night, and they retreated. ”
"Huh?" Su Jin didn't understand, "What do you mean?" ”
"The arrow had a letter on it, and it said, 'Ta Mo was killed, and the sweat seat was empty.'" Lu Jun sat down with Xiaohua in his arms, and let her sit on his lap and play with his fingers, "This letter went directly into the camp when the princes were deliberating, and several princes split up on the spot, and the Tamr tribe has fallen apart. ”
Su Jin's eyes lit up.
Sure enough.
After her provocation, she cared for her second and third sons before she died, and successfully passed on the wrong message, leading them to think that they also had a chance to take the throne.
In the absence of Ta touch's last words, and the eldest prince who was supposed to inherit the throne was injured and was in a weak situation, they would inevitably have the idea of fighting for the throne, and such thoughts would make them fall apart in an instant and go their separate ways.
The scattered forces of the Tamur tribe are no longer as strong as before, they have no time to take care of avenging the dead Tama and attacking their small cloud city, all the princes are aiming at the status of the overlord of the grassland, guarding against each other, accumulating strength, strengthening their own power, and ready to fight to the death with their own brothers at any time.
Go to the army to fight, attack the heart for the top, and surrender the soldiers without a fight.
She has achieved this goal, I am afraid that the war will not start again in the short term, and Cloud City is safe.
This was a happy event, and she wanted to laugh out loud as usual, and brag shamelessly about how good she was, but somehow in her heart there was a drizzling rain, and the dampness rushed into her nasal cavity, making her want to cry very much.
How would she describe her mood at this time?
Is it joy? Is it sadness? Still is...... Infinite nostalgia and sorrow for those who died in this war?
The price of this...... It's too big.
The lives of countless people are left here, this year, this moment-
Or when the Gesang ceremonial flowers are blooming, or at the most comfortable moment after eating and drinking, or in the sweet dreams of hunger, quietly leave without leaving a trace.
Lu Jun sensitively felt the change in her mood, deliberately diverted the topic, and chatted about the interesting things that had happened recently, until she saw that Su Jin could laugh and talk with others, so she fell silent and listened to her chatter.
However, Su Jin, who was talking energetically, suddenly had a throbbing pain in her heart, she broke out in a cold sweat, her already weak body couldn't bear it, and she fainted directly.
Taohong and Jun Ran behind him were shocked, and they went to pick her up and hugged Su Jin to the couch.
"Oops!" Xiaohua was unprepared, Lu Jun suddenly got up, and suddenly fell to the ground.
However, seeing that everyone in the room was nervous, Xiaohua sniffled, rubbed her sore buttocks, got up by herself, and walked over with tears on her face.
Lu Jun looked at the nearly purple-red mark on Su Jin's wrist, and his pupils shrank.
Su Jin's time is running out.
"What's wrong with him," Xiaohua frowned and looked at Su Jin, who had her eyes closed, "It's like I'm dead, I'm better than him......"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes looked at her, and she shrank her neck in fright.
"Xiaohua," Lu Jun was silent for a moment and beckoned, seeing her come timidly and hugging her on the couch.
Lu Jun's expression was indifferent, "Do you know why you are alive?" ”
Floret shook her head.
"It's because your mother protected you, and the person in front of you didn't give up on you, so you are still alive today."
Xiaohua opened her lips slightly and looked at Su Jin, who was pale.
Actually, she has an impression.
It was a hellish night with houses collapsing and smoke billowing in the air. The mother protected her under her, and when she was in a daze, someone took her in her arms.
A warm embrace like a mother's mother.
"Remember, she's your savior, and you're going to repay rather than ridicule, you know?"
Xiaohua pursed her lips, was silent for a moment and nodded, "I see." ”
Lu Wei knew that she was still young, and some of her words were probably unintentional, but he should always teach young children what is right and what is wrong.
Lu Jun looked at the sleeping Su Jin and sighed slightly.
The suburbs of Beijing, Great Wei.
A crowd of men and horses galloped by, dusty and trembling.
"Master," Ling Qi chased after him, holding a letter with a somewhat solemn expression, "Another urgent report from Yuncheng. ”
Xiao Yan stretched out his arms, pulled the reins and forcibly stopped the horse, reached out and grabbed it and swept it away, his eyes suddenly shrank, and the letter was suddenly clenched by him.
Ling Qi held his breath beside him for a moment.
The master has always been happy and angry in front of them, and the only time when his expression changed a lot was when he was by Su Xiaoye's side, and now his expression fluctuated like this, I am afraid that the content of this letter is not simple.
He raised his eyes and saw that the letter was written in the handwriting of a monkey, written in a hurry: "Su Jin is out of the city, and he will die......"
He didn't dare to look at it again, only took a breath of cold air.
"Keep on your way!" Xiao Yan was silent for a while, his voice was as cold as iron, "Don't look back." ”
Ling Qi looked at Xiao Yan's words so firmly, he had to let go of the doubts in his heart.
"Drive!"
Xiao Yan rushed out first, as if he didn't care about that person, and only drove the horse fast.
Just as he ran to the front alone, and before the guards could follow, countless arrows suddenly rained out from all directions, heading straight for Xiao Yan.
"Master, be careful!" Ling Qi let out a loud shout and flew up.
Xiao Yan seemed to be a little distracted, and suddenly raised his head when he had already entered the arrow circle.
It was too late to draw the knife, and when he saw an arrow coming at him, he snorted.
He swayed, and fell into the dead grass.
Cloud City, Changning Street.
Sending Xiaohua back to the nursery hall where the orphans were left, Lu Jun just stepped into an alley, and his eyes were covered with the smile of the past.
"Since you're here, why hide your head and tail?"
"Lord Lu has good ears."
Suddenly a man stood behind him, silently.
The man was dressed in black, with a little black mole between his eyebrows, and the red-eyed wolf head embroidered on his waist was fluttering in the wind at the moment.
Xiao Hai's Dark Guard.
Lu Jun turned around, there was no surprise on his face, he smiled faintly, "Huai Jin didn't know that His Majesty was so concerned about my safety that he personally sent you to protect me. ”
"Lu Xiang is polite, after all, you are a courtier valued by His Majesty, so you must pay more attention and understand more." The captain replied cleverly, "Your Majesty wants to know your news every day, but you never pass it on, fortunately, Lord Meng suggested that we come with you earlier, no, we have done everything you don't like to do." ”
"Oh? That's exhausting! Lu Jun smiled and arched his hand to him, "Then come to think of it, you also helped me pass on the news of the attack on Chinese New Year's Eve?" The news of poisoning Su Jin was also given by you for me? ”
"Don't dare to take credit, this matter is still counted on the head of the adult." The man looked at Lu Jun with a smile, "You promised Your Majesty that this Su Jin would die here, but you repeatedly disobeyed, not only did you go deep into the enemy to rescue him, but also gave him this precious Jiuhua Dan, and you were in a hurry." ”
"And I heard," he stepped forward, squinting his eyes, "you're still looking for an antidote for this Su Jin?" ”
Lu Jun hung his head and stood silently in place, looking indiscussable.
"Lord Lu, you can push the boat with the flow of this matter, and let Su Jin fend for herself, and now you are behaving like this...... Your Majesty has high hopes for you! ”
"Dare to ask you," Lu Jun said, his voice low, "Have you already reported these things to Your Majesty?" ”
"That's nature," the man narrowed, "and my letter will be sent out in the morning......
"Click."
His eyes suddenly widened, his head tilted strangely to one side, and a trace of fear crossed his heart a moment before he took his last breath.
Lu Jun, who has always been weak in literature, actually knows martial arts?
"Go and stop the letter," Lu Jun threw away the man, took out a handkerchief and wiped his fingers, threw it on the man's face, and spoke to the air, "The person who sent the letter will also be cleaned up." ”
"Yes." Someone answered on the eaves, and then silence fell.
With his hands behind his back, he suddenly turned his head to the corner of the wall.
"I said, have you seen enough?"
