73. Death

He said, Jiang Hujun, please.

The provocation between the words was not concealed, Jiang Lian ignored him, but he had to dismount and walk into the prince's mansion with him.

Hearing someone knocking on the door, a little girl of twelve or thirteen years old delicately peeked out of the crack in the door, looked at the two of them with round apricot eyes, and asked softly: "I wonder what the two generals are knocking on the door of my house at night?" ”

Jiang Lian squeezed out a smile with difficulty, and said to her with a complicated expression: "The little lady went to report, we were ordered to come here and ask to see Prince Yi." ”

When the little girl heard her say this, she opened the door of the mansion wider, saluted the two of them, and said with a smile: "The two generals, please sit in the lobby of the mansion for a while, my father is ill at home, and I am afraid that it is inconvenient to meet guests." ”

Zhao Ning glanced at her lightly, and went in first, Jiang Lian followed behind him, saluting the little girl, she had always liked these little girls, and she didn't say a word at this time, just listened to her talking to herself on the side.

The little girl said that she was the youngest daughter of Prince Yi Lao, her name was Yi Shuhe, the word New Year, the eldest sister got married in the early years, and the second brother is now outside, and I heard the people in the family say that he went to Lin'an City with General Wu'an.

Speaking of Lin'an City, her eyes are shining, and she is also looking forward to going to that prosperous place.

Jiang Lian couldn't bear to look at her eyes, Lin'an City is the most cold-blooded and ruthless, this is the playground of the powerful, and the former Lin'an City has long been blinded by power and money.

The young Shu He didn't know why they came, and talked to Jiang Lian with great interest, guessing that they came this time to pick up their family to meet the second brother in Lin'an City, and said sullenly that because her father was seriously ill at home, she hadn't seen the scenery outside for a long time.

Jiang Lian couldn't do it, and he was even more reluctant to do it against these people.

In the past, she guarded this territory, and the tip of her sword was always facing the enemy, but today she stood on this territory, and the tip of her sword was aimed at the old prince and his innocent family who had made military achievements.

She was very sad in her heart.

Yi Shuhe led the two to the front hall, and did not suspect the soldiers who followed behind him, but kindly asked them if they wanted to come in and sit for a while.

Ironically, these people only want their family to die, and the innocent little girl is still wondering if they are tired from the journey.

She came out with two cups of tea on a plate, and Zhao Ning didn't see the other people in the house, so she asked her how many people there were in the family, and why she was the only one who was busy.

Shu He was young and sensible, and explained with a smile that his father was unwilling to squander money, and there were only some old slaves left in the family to live with their own families.

Jiang Lian, who was listening to her all the way, felt that this little girl was so sensible at a young age, and it must not be easy to live on weekdays, she sat there and watched quietly, thinking about whether she could hide her privately while in the chaos for a while, so that it could be regarded as offsetting the feeling in her heart.

Zhao Ning only picked on the things he cared about and listened, and then told her nonsense that there was something important and that she needed to see Prince Yi immediately, and asked her if she could take them to meet the old prince.

Shu He heard the "important matter", and was afraid that he would delay the war because of himself, so he stood up and wanted to take them to his father's room, Jiang Lian frowned and quietly tugged at the corner of her skirt, signaling her not to lead the way, but Shu He didn't understand, didn't know what she wanted, and looked at her with a puzzled expression.

Zhao Ning was suspicious on the side and asked Jiang Lian what was wrong, Jiang Lian had to let go of her hand, and replied, "It's okay, I just think her tea is delicious", and then got up and followed behind her, Zhao Ning saw her get up, and the three of them went out of the door of the front hall, Jiang Lian and Zhao Ning followed five steps away from her.

Zhao Ning saw what she wanted to do just now, and said in a low voice: "Jiang Hujun, some people are destined to die tonight, then they won't be able to see the sunrise tomorrow morning. ”

Jiang Lian couldn't hear the threat between his words, and said lightly: "It's not your turn to point fingers at what I do." ”

It's not like this for a day or two.

Every time she took a step forward, the look on Jiang Lian's face became solemn, waiting for Shu He to stand at the door of the room and say to them, "This is it", her brows were already furrowed, and she didn't want to put it all on her face.

Shu He went in first to wake up her father, and then went out to inform the two of them to go inside to talk about important matters, she sat outside the screen, and did not go in to disturb, Jiang Lian did not go in, after all, she had never been married, and she should also avoid suspicion.

She stood beside Shu He, in case she did something crazy and hurt herself.

Zhao Ning went inside, saw the old prince sitting there, and said lightly Throw the edict at the foot of the bed, the old prince took it and looked at it, his hands couldn't help but tremble all the time, he never blamed Yi Zhixu's behavior for anything wrong, looked at Zhao Ning in front of him with disdain, and said that the world was finally destroyed in his hands Pei Wenxuan.

Zhao Ning was so angry that a sword pierced the old prince's throat, and blood was sprinkled on the screen, Jiang Lian quickly covered Yi Shuhe's eyes, covered her mouth, and quickly pressed her shoulder to take her out.

By this time, the smell of blood had spread from the house to the outside of the door.

Jiang Lian felt that the eyes she was covering were crying at this time, she only let go of her eyes when she went out, but she still didn't let go of the hand covering her mouth, and made a silent gesture at her, and she only put down her hand when she nodded, at this time she suppressed her voice and instructed Shu He, let her run all the way to the back door of the backyard, don't look back, no matter what happened in the house, wait for Jiang Lian to come out when she went to look for her.

This is the best way for Jiang Lian to save her at the moment.

After saying that, she drove her away, and told her not to call anyone else, if there were too many people, she would die.

Seeing her run away, she returned to the house with her hands in her hands, and before there was a cup of tea, Zhao Ning came out of it, stained with blood, and still carried the head of the old prince in her hand.

When he came out, he didn't see Yi Shuhe's figure, and when he asked where she went, Jiang Lian never mentioned it, and he couldn't do anything about her.

He walked all the way to the door of the front hall with his head in his head, shouting to his soldiers that he would burn this place, and Jiang Lian's soldiers had been surrounding outside, not obeying Jiang Lian's edict not to use troops.

At this time, Zhao Ning's subordinates threw the torches in their hands onto the house.
