Chapter Seventy-Seven: Sacrificing the Sword with Blood
There was such a big commotion, and Dong Jiu and Li Yuhan also arrived.
When Li Yuhan saw the whip marks on Ji Ying's body, the self-blame that had been suppressed for a long time poured out like a flood, making him almost suffocate to death. He carefully held Ji Ying in his arms, wrapped her mink fur around his body, and brushed her hair sticky with snow slag with his fingers, and saw her pale face.
Ji Ying was wrapped in the warmth that she had not seen for a long time, she smelled the unique breath of Li Yuhan's body, she slowly opened her eyes, met those clear eyes, suddenly, her heart twitched, and a strong joy and happiness hit every inch of her skin and every drop of blood.
When he was a child, Li Chengyu was always called by Li Xingzhi to practice martial arts, and he was often away from home for several days in a row, and on such days, Li Yuhan became her only playmate.
At that time, Li Yuhan was also very young, and it was the time to be naughty. So Li Yuhan will try his best to take Ji Ying into trouble together, because he knows that as long as there is his sister's "support" in everything, any punishment is symbolic, and Ji Ying at that time was very righteous, but whenever the elders asked, they dared to take the responsibility for any bad things on themselves.
But there was a time when Li Yuhan took Ji Ying to climb a tree, but Ji Ying didn't stand firmly, fell from the tree, and broke his arm. Li Yuhan wanted to take Ji Ying to see the doctor, but Ji Ying didn't go, she said that if she went to see the doctor, everyone in the family would know, and her brother would have to be scolded at that time. Li Yuhan knew that what his sister said was right, but he couldn't help it, so he took his sister in his arms and coaxed her softly.
Both of them remember this.
How can you be willing to throw away such a beautiful memory?
Ji Ying hugged Li Yuhan's arm, her mouth closed one by one, and she pronounced the syllables that echoed for a long time and didn't dare to speak: "Brother-"
Li Yuhan's heart was shocked, he had been looking forward to this title for too long, so long that he thought that he might never hear it again in his life.
Ji Ying whispered, "I'm sorry. "Sorry what? It's not that I don't recognize each other, but I don't dare to recognize each other, and now I want to recognize each other, and at such a precarious moment. God is really unkind.
Li Yuhan hugged Ji Ying, and his heart was distressed. He glared at the culprit Takubuhua and yelled, "What do you want to do!" Why hit her? ”
Dong Jiu was also very angry, he was entrusted by Jiang Yichen to protect Ji Ying's safety, Ji Ying was whipped, how should he explain. He drew his sword and stood in front of the brother and sister, and asked, "Kunli Khan, do you think that I have no one in the Great Zhou when you beat my Great Zhou envoy like this?" ”
Seeing Dong Jiu draw his sword and question, the Beidi people showed their blades one after another. Kun Li stood far behind Takubuhua and said, "The general should know why Ben Khan did this. The person who should sign a contract with my Beidi is obviously His Royal Highness the King of Qi of the Great Zhou, why did he change to Ji Ying after a night? You guys sang this play so well, you have been hiding it from me for so long. ”
"What the Khan wants is a contract to be a vassal to my Great Zhou, since my Great Zhou is the king, and Beidi is the minister, then the dignified and three-rank Longtuge scholar is of course qualified to exercise power on behalf of the Son of Heaven, what's wrong? I don't know why the Khan is angry that the King of Qi is gone, is there any intention? ”
"What can Ben Khan do!" Kun Li was annoyed and angry, "Zhou Jue and Rong Zhe were sent out by you to hide from the world and cross the sea to call it an attempt!" Since you're lying to me, don't blame me for being rude! Du, put these people up to Ben Khan! ”
Kun Li only called Duye, but there were more than a dozen people who received the order. Dong Jiu was entangled by these people and couldn't free up his hands to protect Ji Ying, and Li Yuhan was also trapped by several big men, leaving Ji Ying alone on the ground.
Someone wanted to come to Laji Baby, but was stopped by Tuo Buhua. Takubu looked at the dying "man" in front of him, and his heart suddenly surged with happiness. She believed that the people of the Zhou Dynasty should be like Ji Ying, who respectfully entrusted her with a cheap life, and let her be enslaved and tortured. Days like that are coming soon.
Takuyashi picked up the leather whip again and whipped Ji Ying. Ji Ying, who has no protection, is like a dead tree without leaves, quietly waiting for life to wither.
One, two, three......
Ji Ying didn't have the strength to resist, her head hung down, and her hands were casually placed, looking like she was out of breath.
Li Yuhan resisted like crazy, wanting to break out of the siege, but there were more and more people besieging him, and he could only watch his sister being abused to death. And Dong Jiu's situation did not improve because he killed Du Ye.
Takukashi stopped whipping, and she felt that violence without resistance was too boring. Her face was an undisguised insolent smile, and her dark cheeks flushed slightly with excitement. She walked up to Ji Ying, leaned down, and reached out to probe Ji Ying's breath.
Suddenly, Ji Ying's manual was up. She pulled out the scimitar that had been hidden in her sleeve, stabbed it into Takubu's chest, and then pulled it out mercilessly!
Tuo Buhua's chest immediately bloomed a bewitching red flower!
Everything was so sudden, even Takumi didn't spend himself, and his eyes were open in shock the moment he fell to the ground, not believing that she, an eagle on the prairie, would die at the hands of a docile lamb.
Everyone present was shocked, whether it was the Beidi people or the Great Zhou people.
Under the gaze of everyone, Ji Ying returned the scimitar to its scabbard, sat up straight, and said in a weak voice: "Jiang Yichen told me that the real contest often does not rely on force, but on endurance and brains. I killed Princess Beidi with a scimitar captured from the royal family of Beidi, and I also called it the best use of things. Sacrifice the knife with blood, hurry, hurry! ”
Kunli woke up from the shock, and his emotions were out of control. He pulled out the knife of the guard next to him, and angrily killed Ji Ying, he roared: "Ji Ying, you dare to kill my sister, I will kill you!" ”
Dong Jiu, who had found the right time, jumped out of the encirclement and slashed off the knife in Kun Li's hand with one sword, protecting Ji Ying behind him. Kun Li held his wrist that was injured and shouted: "Come on, take off the heads of Dong Jiu and Ji Ying for Ben Khan!" ”
Beidi's warriors once again targeted Dong Jiu and Ji Ying, but at this time, there was already a trace of fear in their eyes.
"Stop!" A slightly hoarse voice came from outside the crowd, muffling out the voices of the soldiers. When people made a way, everyone found that the owner of the voice was Lin Zejun.
But Kunli called out another name: "Schlen." ”
Lin Zejun walked to the center of the crowd, frowned and looked around the situation—Beidi's loss was not light—and then walked over to Kun Li's side and whispered a few words.
"Can't kill? Why? She killed Takubu and didn't spend it! Kun Li yelled hatefully.
Lin Zejun explained in a low voice: "Li Yuhan's father Li Xingzhi is the prince's person, and Dong Jiu is the person of King Huai'an. You can't tear your face just yet. ”
"I'm going to kill Ji Ying."
"Ji Ying is the person of Yanwang Zhou Yu, and we can't afford to mess with it."
Kun Li grabbed Lin Zejun's neckline and said, "What about Zhou Yu?" We're going to fight them soon, so what are we pretending to be? ”
Lin Zejun let Kun force drag him and said, "Could it be that the Khan wants to suffer from the enemy on his back?" Although King Yan and my Beidi are like fire and water, he has no friendship with the Great Zhou court. Wouldn't it be good if we could send someone to convince King Yan that he was neutral when the two countries were at war as soon as possible? ”
Kun Li, who said two sentences, immediately lost his momentum, he looked at his sister's dead corpse, and said, "Could it be ...... Is that all? ”
Lin Zejun glanced at Ji Ying, who was half-propped on the ground, and said, "Lock them up, it will be useful in the future." ”
Ji Ying, Li Yuhan, and Dong Jiu were locked up in a tent together, and the rest of the mission was also taken into custody. In order to prevent Ji Ying from dying, Lin Zejun personally sent some medicine for external application and internal use, and ordered someone to prepare a brazier.
Ji Ying slept groggily for a day, and only woke up in the middle of the night. She felt like every bone in her body was about to shatter, and her stomach was churning with heat, and she was uncomfortably broken.
Li Yuhan, who was napping at the head of Ji Ying's bed, immediately woke up when he heard a faint cough, he melted the pill with water, fed Ji Ying, and coaxed her to sleep for a while. Ji Ying was afraid that Li Yuhan would catch a cold, so she moved to the bed and made way for Li Yuhan.
Li Yuhan's shirk was ineffective, so he had to bring a blanket and hang it on the edge of the bed, but even in such a tiring posture, Li Yuhan was very happy in his heart.
The next day, Dong Jiu, who had been on the small table all night, woke up first. He made the fire, baked two cakes briefly, and warmed a pot of goat's milk. At this time, Li Yuhan also woke up, he touched Ji Ying's forehead, and finally his hands were not so hot.
Lin Zejun's medicine has an excellent effect, but in a day and a night, the whiplash wounds on Ji Ying's body have begun to scab, and by noon when Ji Ying is fully awake, the fever has all subsided.
Li Yuhan held a bowl of hot milk in front of Ji Ying and said, "I don't know what this Lin Zejun thinks, at first I thought he had bad intentions, maybe he put some unclean things in the medicine, and then I saw that he was too diligent to give you medicine, depending on your situation, there should be no problem with the medicine." ”
Ji Ying smiled, thinking to herself, her second brother is still unforgiving, knowing that people are kind, but he doesn't want to appreciate it, too, who makes the position different.
Dong Jiu gnawed the cake in his hand and said, "I guessed the identity of this person." ”
