Chapter 124: Signing a Life and Death Certificate
"I didn't expect there to be so many people, and if there was a fight, there would be countless casualties." Xuanyi said softly beside Wei Zhaohua, his eyes fell on the surrounding crowd, and a trace of worry flashed.
"Since it's for the future, it doesn't matter if you lose your life. Anyone who dares to sign a life and death certificate can be regarded as a hero. Wei Zhaohua said lightly, these people must have fished in troubled waters, but if they dare to sign a life and death certificate and go to the ring, they are all worthy of admiration.
Wei Zhaohua looked around, there was a high ring in the middle, and he thought that the competition was probably on it. On the right, a large number of guards and subordinates gathered, presumably preparing for the competition. Jiang Heng's figure was faintly visible among this group of people, even if it was winter, he was still busy with beads of sweat on his head.
A large shed was erected on the left, which was prepared for Xuanyi, Wei Zhaohua and other nobles to enjoy. Because of Xuanyi, the shed is larger than in previous years.
Xuanyi and Wei Zhaohua sat down under the escort of the guards, and they were also surrounded by guards to protect them. Jiang Heng on the opposite side seemed to see Xuanyi and Wei Zhaohua, broke away from the crowd, and walked towards the two of them.
"Jiang Heng see the princess, see the county lord." Jiang Heng bowed his hand slightly to the two people.
Xuanyi and Wei Zhaohua just sat down, and hurriedly stood up and saluted Jiang Heng slightly, "Commander Jiang is the chief examiner, today is bound to be busy, we are just having a good time, you can just be busy with your own affairs." ”
Xuanyi saw the beads of sweat on Jiang Heng's head, and took out the silk handkerchief from his sleeve with some reluctance and handed it to Jiang Heng. Jiang Heng's eyes unconsciously glanced at Wei Zhaohua, and bowed to Xuanyi, "Don't dare, thank you for the princess's kindness." ”
Xuanyi's hand that stayed in mid-air was gently retracted, and he smiled indifferently on his face, "Then Commander Jiang should go and get busy." ”
Jiang Heng answered and was about to leave. Wei Zhaohua didn't speak from beginning to end, his eyes looked at the people around him from time to time, and he didn't care about the conversation between Jiang Heng and Xuanyi at all. Xuanyi glanced at Wei Zhaohua's indifferent appearance and sighed.
"Sit down, I think it won't be long before it starts."
Wei Zhaohua nodded and sat down with Xuanyi, "Why haven't you seen my brother for so long?" ”
Xuanyi followed Wei Zhaohua's gaze and looked everywhere, but he really didn't see Wei Songting's figure. Such an important matter, according to Wei Songting's temperament, should not be forgotten!
On the other side, Jiang Heng arranged everything in an orderly manner, and the crowd under the audience had become restless, and they seemed to be eager to try.
Wei Zhaohua's heart suddenly swelled with an ominous premonition, when he came out this morning, because he wanted to be with Xuanyi, he didn't wait for Wei Songting, why hasn't Wei Songting come yet?
"Anyang, you go back home, and see along the road why your brother hasn't come yet, you must be fast! We're here to hold off time, but don't let my brother delay! Wei Zhaohua said to An Yang next to him, An Yang also knew that the matter was urgent, so he hurriedly went down to prepare.
There were also several dignitaries in the tent
, it should be the military attache who came to watch the game, and after bowing lightly to Xuanyi and Wei Zhaohua, he went to the back and sat down.
Seeing that there were more and more people and the preparations were becoming more and more proper, Wei Zhaohua was indeed more and more worried.
Jiang Heng walked lightly to the ring under the gaze of everyone, waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and waited until the crowd was looking at Jiang Heng. Jiang Hengcai said loudly, "Today is favored by the emperor, you can appreciate your martial arts, and you will compete in the ring for a while, and please try your best to have a way out for the future." But if there is something about stealing chickens and dogs, opportunistic things, I will also severely punish them! ”
Jiang Heng said with a fierce momentum, which happened to the appetite of the martial artists on the stage, and they shouted loudly, "You must follow the orders of Commander Jiang!" ”
Jiang Heng was very satisfied with everyone's reaction, and then said, "Everyone is a little restless, but anyone who can be promoted is a strong man of my Eastern Qi, and he will inevitably be reused by the emperor." Born as a man, the husband should stand up to the sky and serve the country, although he will not regret death! ”
Everyone echoed Jiang Heng's words even more, many people did not have a prominent background, but they still had this patriotic heart. Some people want to enter the spectatorship, and they have to invest a lifetime of energy, not only for food and clothing, but also for the completion of a grand cause!
"Serve the country! I don't regret dying! Serve the country! I don't regret dying! ”
The shouting shook the sky, Xuanyi looked at Jiang Heng in the ring stupidly, and there was surprise in his eyes that could not be concealed. Although Wei Zhaohua didn't show anything on the side, his eyes looked in the direction of the door from time to time. Jiang Heng came to power, so the competition would start soon, but at this time, Wei Songting still didn't have any news.
"I believe that you are all warriors, and as soon as you sign a life and death certificate here, you can come to the stage to challenge. Both sides can point to the end or take people's lives, all by their own will, and no one can interfere. If you are challenged for ten rounds and still do not fail, you will directly enter the test of the next game. Jiang Heng announced the rules of the game, but at this time, Wei Zhaohua's eyes only fell in the direction of the door.
The ministers next to them looked at Jiang Heng presiding over the overall situation in an orderly manner, and they all nodded with a smile, "The old man still remembers the situation when Commander Jiang participated in the martial arts test that year, and now Commander Jiang has become a young and promising examiner!" ”
The official on the side then chimed in and said, "Yes! The people who fought with Commander Jiang that year did not lose their lives, and Commander Jiang still kept good thoughts in the ring, which is really valuable. ”
The group said warmly, Xuanyi listened softly, a faint smile on his face, and it seemed that the scene of Jiang Heng's martial arts competition appeared in front of him.
It wasn't until Jiang Heng stepped down that Xuanyi reacted, and the competition was about to start. was about to say something to Wei Zhaohua, but at this time, Wei Zhaohua was nowhere to be seen. Xuanyi got up from his seat and asked the people around him in a panic, "Where is the county lord of Zhaohua?" ”
The old minister behind him didn't seem to notice Wei Zhaohua's disappearance, looked at the impatient Xuanyi, and shook his head together. Xuanyi didn't have time to look at what happened next, and walked out of the shed in a hurry.
The maids followed
Xuanyi looked for Wei Zhaohua's figure everywhere, and it wasn't until he turned around for most of the circle that Xuanyi saw Wei Zhaohua in the corner. Wei Zhaohua was squatting beside Wei Songting with a worried face, and at this time, Wei Songting was sitting on the ground, with this little bit of blood on his body, and there were also some blood drops on the faces of Youyou and An Yang on the side.
"What's going on? What happened? Xuanyi hurriedly stepped forward.
Wei Zhaohua did not turn around to look at Xuanyi, but lifted Wei Songting's clothes and carefully helped Wei Songting deal with the wounds on his body. deep and shallow, but they are all blurred with flesh and blood. Wei Zhaohua couldn't bear it in his heart, but he reluctantly helped Wei Songting to bandage it a little bit.
An Yang knelt on the ground, his face full of hatred, and hit his mouth with his hand, "It's all villains who are not good!" didn't take good care of the eldest young master, and let the young master be ambushed halfway, so he was injured! ”
Xuanyi looked at the wounds on Wei Songting's body in disbelief, this martial arts test is the only chance for Wei Songting, if it is delayed because of this, if Wei Songting wants to V Tiger Head in the future, it will be really difficult.
"Nope! It's all my fault! I don't know martial arts! If you don't protect the eldest young master, you will make the eldest young master like this! Yoyo also knelt on the ground, and a little teardrop fell from his eyes, which made people feel distressed.
Xuanyi didn't have time to care about them, and Wei Zhaohua couldn't listen to the words of the two people, and quietly looked at Wei Songting's eyes, "Brother, the competition is about to start, maybe you can play?" ”
Wei Songting opened his eyes, stretched out his hand and rubbed Wei Zhaohua's hair, and smiled softly on his slightly pale face, "Don't worry, what I have on my body, but the face of the emperor and the Su family, even if they die, they will die in the ring!" ”
Wei Zhaohua nodded fiercely, helped Wei Songting to get up, and walked towards the direction of the ring step by step. Everyone was puzzled, but when they saw the appearance of Wei Songting and Wei Zhaohua, they still made way for a wide road.
Wei Songting walked in the direction of life and death, Jiang Heng also noticed a few people, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes. The guards handed Wei Songting a life and death certificate, Wei Songting didn't look at it, and was about to lift the pen, Jiang Heng hurriedly stopped it, holding Wei Songting's hand, "There is still another way to do everything, you will probably never be able to get off again!" ”
Wei Songting smiled bitterly, gently broke Jiang Heng's hand, and without hesitation, he wrote his name on the life and death certificate and pressed his handprint. "Good brother, how could I let you down!"
Jiang Heng personally supported Wei Songting and said to Xuanyi and Wei Zhaohua, "This place is not suitable for the two nobles to stay, I will take care of Brother Wei, and the nobles might as well go back first." ”
Xuanyi looked around, there were no other women except for the two of them, and they looked particularly abrupt. Looking at Wei Zhaohua's worried eyes again, Xuanyi stretched out his hand to pull Wei Zhaohua.
"Believe in Brother Wei, just like you believe in Brother Huang!"
Wei Zhaohua nodded, and walked towards the shed with Xuanyi. When the ministers sitting in the back saw this change, they didn't say anything more and waited intently for the start of the game.
Anyang accompanied Wei Songting, and Youyou followed Wei
Behind Zhaohua, although he was not crying, it was still difficult to hide the tears on his face.
"Xuanyi, you go and send someone to talk to Jiang Heng, don't let someone take advantage of the situation, since someone has already calculated, then this game will only be more difficult. No one can say for sure what happens on the field. ”
Wei Zhaohua said quietly, if there are already people in ambush on the road, then why can't they be on the field? Protector said they were ready for a long time? Just waiting for Wei Songting to throw himself into the net?
