Chapter 466: Coming and Going

Zhuang Rou was dealing with those hesitant soldiers, one side kept lobbying, and the other side was very hesitant and couldn't believe her.

She didn't necessarily want these soldiers to live, but she just had an idea that if she could convince them, the entire guard would return to the imperial court, and she would not inherit Yang Rong's desire to rebel.

Otherwise, it's okay to kill them all, but you can't kill all the soldiers. There are also many families in the health center, and those who drag their children and daughters have no labor to farm, and their lives will be very difficult to live on them alone.

In order to stabilize the guards, the imperial court will definitely arrange for soldiers who are not married to come over and forcibly marry these widows. If it is not well-matched, it will only make Hongzhou not peaceful.

Zhuang Rou really wanted to ignore these, if someone blocked him, he would kill him, and it would be fine if he killed all the essence.

But she is not a person like Yang Rong, she doesn't have to care about the lives of the people, she just acts recklessly to achieve her own goals.

"I'll say it again, I'm not going to be polite if I hold a knife again." Zhuang Rou's patience was being consumed little by little, and if she stood there and hesitated any longer, she would kill someone.

The soldiers looked at each other, in fact, what they were most worried about was whether Zhuang Rou would suddenly make a move on them when they relaxed their vigilance. After all, this woman is said to be murderous, not a good person.

Just when the stalemate between the two sides was a little unbearable, a long dragon-like light suddenly appeared in the distance, and a large group of people came this way.

Zhuang Rou frowned, could it be that everyone in the guard is here?

Thinking about it, I felt that it was a little impossible, so I came alone, no matter how dead or injured these soldiers were, they were the strongest people who could be picked out in the guard.

After all, I haven't fought for many years, and many young adults who have grown up have farmed all day long and have not trained much.

It's not a group fight, but with a lot of strength, you can have the upper hand.

The soldiers of the guard also looked up at the firelight, and they didn't know who came again, but there were quite a few of them, and it was estimated that there were two or three hundred people.

Suddenly, a fast horse galloped over, rushed to the front of the mourning hall, pulled the horse to a halt, and looked around expressionlessly.

It was none other than Xiao Ran.

He sat on his horse, stared at the group of soldiers who were still alive, and said loudly: "Lord Zhizhou has come to worship Mrs. Yang, what about your commander?" ”

This time I finally have a good reputation, compared to Zhuang Rou, who kills and makes trouble all day long, everyone knows that Chu Xia, the Lord of Zhizhou, is a little clumsy but has a good heart, and occasionally does something serious.

From the time he took office to the present, he has not done anything harmful, and there are some simple things that seem to make him believe everything.

Moreover, Yang Rong does not trust others, the soldiers only know that they must be ready, and they will come out tomorrow when they hear the order to arrest his enemies.

As for who the enemy was, apart from those who had died, these soldiers did not know who they were.

They didn't expect that Yang Rong's target would be Chu Xia, the Lord of Zhizhou, after all, everyone was working for the imperial court, and they hadn't heard of any hatred between the two.

So these soldiers hurriedly stepped forward, clasped their fists and said to Xiao Ran: "We are the soldiers of the guard, Lord Yang is already dead!" ”

"What!" Xiao Ran frowned as if he didn't see Zhuang Rou, and shouted directly, "What happened?" ”

Zhuang Rou hurriedly leaned over, glared at the soldier she was still lobbying with Yan Yuese just now, and said hand to hand: "Brother Xiao, that Yang Rong was killed by the people from the rivers and lakes he found. ”

"That man can put a hidden weapon, and there is poison on it, and it almost hit me, but fortunately I have a shield to help. But Yang Rong didn't have anything, so he was killed by that man. ”

Xiao Ran looked at the guards and asked solemnly, "Is the truth really as the horse said?" ”

The soldiers looked at each other, and that was indeed the case, but there was still something in it that was hard to say. They don't know about others, but this female colt and Lord Yang have a feud a few months ago.

They didn't see how Yang Rong was killed, they just saw that he was hit by a hidden weapon, how can this be returned?

Suddenly, everyone thought of a person, Zheng Dongfeng Zheng Yan, he must know what happened.

The soldier hurriedly carried Zheng Dongfeng, who was poisoned by the crossbow arrow and was so numb that his whole body was weak and unable to move, and replied to Xiao Ran: "Lord Zheng knows what happened, and we are just following orders. ”

Xiao Ran glanced at him, he was drugged, and he couldn't even speak for a while, so he said: "Let's find a doctor to come over and see Lord Zheng's injuries first, your brothers here are too dead and injured, let's save them first." ”

"Yes." The soldiers hurried over to find their brothers who were still alive, all of them were people who came out of the guard, and one of them could live.

They left the two of them to take care of Zheng Dongfeng, and Zhuang Rou stepped forward and suddenly reached out and pulled out the crossbow arrows while they were unprepared. The two soldiers immediately looked at her angrily, this man was acting so viciously that the doctor drew his arrows before he could come.

She smiled indifferently and wiped the blood on the arrow from Zheng Dongfeng's clothes before putting it back on the crossbow.

And Zheng Dongfeng has no consciousness at all now, let alone pulling out an arrow, even if he directly cuts off one of his legs, he can't feel half of the pain.

At this time, Chu Xia came in a carriage, and as soon as he got out of the carriage, he said loudly with a smile on his face: "Lord Yang, the custom of our family is to come in the middle of the night, the matter of Lingtang is really sad, you have to mourn!" ”

After saying that, when he saw that the atmosphere was wrong, he was a little dazed, "What's wrong?" Xiao Ran, what about Lord Yang? ”

Xiao Ran dismounted and reported: "My lord, Lord Yang was killed by the Jianghu people. This Zheng has witnessed everything, and his subordinates have not yet asked about the details. ”

Chu Xia looked at it and hurriedly said, "Why are you still stunned, Zheng Yishi has been injured so badly, hurry up and carry him to a clean and warm place." The brazier was raised, and the doctor was called for healing, what should I do if I hurt my internal organs! ”

Seeing him like this, Zhuang Rou knew that he was singing again, so he didn't step forward to take care of him, saving himself from putting a black pot on his head.

She stepped aside and began to look around for Qin Qiu's figure, maybe he was hiding in some dirty place looking for an opportunity.

After a while, it seemed that someone had gone to the guard house, and a lot of family members with their children and daughters had arrived. Seeing that the man in his family was injured, it was okay, but if he died, he would cry so badly.

Just when the crying and shouting continued here, Chu Xia walked out of the command envoy, Zheng Dongfeng was sent here by him to help, and now the person should be fine, so he came out to deal with the people outside.

When Chu Xia walked out, his eyes seemed to be flashing with tears under the light of torches and lanterns.

He took a deep breath and said, "Everyone, Lord Yang Rong was killed, these soldiers died to protect Lord Yang, all of this was done by the people of the rivers and lakes. They were all Assassins, who had been paid for to assassinate. ”

"The assassin has been punished and hacked to death by everyone, I will definitely investigate this case and give you an explanation. However, the guard house cannot be left unmanaged for a day, and Zheng Yishi led his troops to kill the assassins, so he temporarily took charge of the guard. ”

"I will immediately report this matter to the imperial court, and ensure that Lord Zheng will take charge of the guard office until the new commander comes. Lord Zheng is a close confidant of Lord Yang and an old man in the health office, I believe that he can get along with everyone happily and arrange the future affairs of the brothers. ”

Chu Xia let out a long sigh, "The guard is under the control of the military department, and my government can't interfere, so in order to avoid suspicion, we have to retreat quickly." ”

"Everyone, please mourn, the murderer's body is also handed over to the health office to dispose of, and this official will see if some of the rescue money can be saved and used for the emergency use of the guard."

"Alas......" He reluctantly bowed his hand to everyone and returned to the carriage, "Let's go, go back." ”
