Successful Assassination (1)
The night is dark and windy, and this is a good time for assassination.
I was walking through the barracks, which was heavily guarded, there were no intervals between patrols, and I had to be careful again and again, and I crouched in a shadow, waiting for the group of soldiers to pass.
I just went to two places, but I didn't see Zhao Chuanlin, I was going to go to another place to have a look, but before I came out, I saw two people walking next to me, who seemed to be talking about something, and looked like a general, so I waited for a while, wanting to hear what they were talking about.
only listened to their voices from far and near, and one person said: "In the past few days, Zhao Shuai seems to be in a bad mood. ”
"The logistics grain and grass haven't kept up, and with the heavy snow, the winter operation is not suitable for us Luanling, Zhao Shuai must have a headache." Another said.
The man asked with concern: "That's right, there has been no movement from the capital in the past few days, has the evacuation of Fengdu been completed?" ”
"It's just done today, the people of Fengdu have withdrawn, and the boss said that the war will start in Fengdu when the time comes." The other man replied to him.
The man looked regretful: "Actually, General Xiao has been delaying me for a long time, all because of the snow, otherwise we wouldn't have to drag it here all the time." ”
Another person replied: "The weather in the north is like this, and it is not unreasonable for Duo Qi to choose to start a war at this time. ”
"Having said that, I'm still unwilling, so I left the capital and gave it away." The man had a distressed look on his face.
Another person said: "Don't talk about leaving the capital, if we lose the battle of Fengdu, which we have been preparing for so long, then it will be difficult for us to compete with Duoqi." ”
"That's not it, most of Luan Ling's troops are placed near the imperial city, after all, the emperor's comfort is the most important thing." The man shook his head and walked on.
The other sighed pessimistically: "Alas. ”
"Don't look like this when you go to see Zhao Shuai later, sigh, be careful that Zhao Shuai gets angry and punishes you." The man patted him on the back to cheer him up.
The other person reluctantly pulled out a smile, and he said, "Okay, I know, let's go quickly, otherwise Zhao Shuai will be in a hurry." ”
"Okay." As soon as they finished speaking, they quickened their pace.
But it can be regarded as the emperor's wish, I happened to go to Zhao Chuanlin, I followed behind them, they helped me lead the way, I was not close or far, just where I could see them.
After turning a few corners, they walked into a very ordinary small building, only two floors, and from the outside, it really didn't look like the place where the commander of the First Army lived.
I flew up to the roof and saw them enter a room on the second floor, so I crouched on it and waited for them.
It was freezing and I don't know how long it was, but I saw the two of them come out of the room, and when they were far away, I wanted to climb off the roof.
Feeling my hands and feet stiff, I moved my wrist a little before I grabbed the eaves and tumbled, and when I saw that the light was still on in the room, I opened the door and walked in.
The sound of the door opening alarmed the people in the room, he sat at the table and looked at the map of Fengdu, he was taken aback, and quickly pulled out the sword in his hand, I looked at him, he is still like this, he has not changed at all from the imperial city.
"What people!" He pointed his sword at me, and he was fierce.
I smiled, pulled down my veil, and said to him, "Come and kill you." ”
……
On the fourth day after Qinsha left Lidu, I sat in the teahouse of Lidu and drank tea leisurely.
I poured myself another cup, and I was always in a trance when I looked at the tea leaves floating on the water.
The news of the successful assassination spread to Lidu yesterday, and Qinsha killed the commander of the first army within three days, which can indeed shock the Quartet, and Duo Qi naturally welcomes me back.
I watched the neatly lined soldiers outside the teahouse, walking in front of me, and I drank another cup of tea.
There was a horse galloping towards me in the distance, I thought that the first to come to me would be Wen Quan, but I didn't expect it to be Zabu, seeing that he was excited, the horse had not stopped, he jumped off the horse, three steps and two steps to the teahouse, he stammered upstairs.
I turned around, looked at him with interest, and said, "General Zab, do you have tea?" ”
He walked up to me and sat down, a chill came over his face, and he said excitedly, "Is he really dead?" ”
"Ling Chuan has all the news, can there be a fake?" I replied calmly, "Moreover, I have brought back his sword, and I have already handed over the sword to the third prince, if you don't believe it, you can ask him for it." ”
"No, no, no, Miss Qinsha, I didn't mean that, I'm so happy, I'm going to fight soon, and we will win this battle!" Zabu gave me a priestly etiquette, which seemed to me to mean thanksgiving.
I waved my hand and quickly asked him not to do it, his face couldn't hide his happiness, and he said, "The third prince asked me to tell you, the price he offered will definitely satisfy you, and when the time comes, he will send it directly to the Shadow Pavilion." ”
"Just don't pay the bills." I took an empty cup, poured tea on it, handed it to him, and said, "I wish General Zabu a victorious start." ”
He took it and drank it, and said heroically, "Okay, Qinsha girl, then I'll go first." ”
I nodded: "Okay, I won't send it, General Zab." ”
He smiled, ran downstairs again, mounted his horse, and hurried away.
I watched his back get smaller and smaller, until it disappeared, the soldiers were still walking out of the city, today Duo Qi is going to declare war on Feng Du, exactly like I thought, they will not wait, and they will not verify the authenticity of this news, as well as the details of Zhao Chuanlin's death.
Finally, I waited for Wen Quan.
Wen Quan didn't look as happy as Zabu, he looked solemn, he was also wearing battle armor, and walked up step by step, now at the staircase.
I knew he was looking at me, but I didn't turn my head, and after a while, he spoke first, "Why are you coming back?" ”
For Qin Sha, her task is completed, and she can retreat, and the money will naturally be sent to Yingxi Pavilion, and I really don't need to come back.
I thought he would ask me about Zhao Chuanlin in the first sentence, but I didn't expect to say this.
I slowly turned my head and said, "For you." ”
"For me?" Wen Quan looked surprised by this answer, he didn't understand my thoughts, I didn't have any friendship with him, and it seemed too reluctant for him to do so.
But the truth is, I came back for him.
He stepped forward and asked puzzledly, "For me?" ”
I stood up and looked into his eyes, which were hateful, bloody, and occasionally confused.
It's this confusion that is the reason why I came back for him.
Not only for him, but also for Lidu, for Luanleng.
He was a contradiction, in order to take revenge, he had to cooperate with Duo Qi, sitting on the enemy's horse, pointing his sword at the city he used to guard, the people he guarded, he doubted himself, but he was burdened with the deep hatred of the family, and he had to do it.
I spoke: "Is it okay to kill the third prince?" ”
