Chapter 345: Killing Night
There is little rain in winter, but when it does, it lasts much longer than in autumn.
The drizzle is accompanied by a little snow, accompanied by the cold wind falling on the sky, and there are few people in Zhongmu City, even the nobles of the noble clan will not force the maids and servants to go out in this kind of weather.
After all, a servant and maid could not afford to wear a fur cape, and if she accidentally got wet, she would have to be seriously ill.
Slaves and maidservants are bought, but they also require money.
Inside a small alley.
A dozen men in hats, armed with swords and leading two carriages, slowly came to the door of a mansion.
A moment later, accompanied by the servants of the mansion to report.
About half an hour.
Inside the gate of the mansion, there were several young men who slowly walked out and slowly got into the carriage under the umbrella of the maid.
"Be careful all the way!"
Under the umbrella of the maid, the lord came to the carriage and stopped, and after looking around, he looked at Tian Wei and the others.
The main Xun did not follow Tian Wei and the others to get into the carriage together.
"Don't worry!"
When the corpse weir heard Zhu Xun's words, he naturally knew that Zhu Xun was worried that Wu Gao would have a conflict with Tian Wei, so he comforted him softly.
On the side, Chen Xuan seemed heartless at the moment, and he didn't care about these, but at this moment Chen Xuan looked at the men wearing hats with curiosity.
Seeing Tian Wei and the Lord say goodbye, he got into the carriage and hurriedly followed.
"Tian Wei, these are all Qi Gong Attacks?"
As soon as Chen Xuan got into the carriage on his hind feet, he turned his head to look at Tian Sui, his face full of curiosity.
Tian Wei looked at his friend Chen Xu.
"I know what you're thinking, don't waste that strength, these people's swordsmanship has their own strengths, and ordinary soldiers can't hurt them at all!"
Tian Wei said, looking at his friend Chen Xuan angrily.
Speaking of which, Chen Xu belongs to the kind of person who doesn't speak well, obviously has a dream of leading the army on the battlefield and becoming a famous general in the world since he was a child, but when he became an adult, he chose to follow the text for fear of pain, and he also said that his name Qi has no war, and enlisting in the army is a waste of his own talents, and he pushes all the problems on the King of Qi, as if as long as the King of Qi has the ambition to dominate the world, he will immediately enlist in the army.
"How is it compared to that Qin Ruishi?"
Chen Xuan asked with a grin, his eyes full of curiosity.
Seeing this, Tian Wei shook his head.
"On the battlefield, Qin Rui is strong, and outside the battlefield, Qi is strong."
Tian Wei said.
As the main general of Qi Jiji, Tian Wei did not bluntly say that Qi Jishu was invincible and invincible, on the contrary.
It is precisely because he is the main general of Qi Jiji, Tian Wei knows better than most people that in terms of combat, although Qi Jishu is a well-known elite division in the world of Qi, but it can only defeat the general enemy, if on the battlefield, encounter an elite division like Zhao Biancai, Wei Wushu or Qin Ruishi, who is proficient in battlefield combat, Qi Jishu is still inferior.
Even if it was a head-to-head confrontation, Qi Jishu encountered the Bai Iron Cavalry, who was famous for fighting to the death in the Qindi Gaonu, and under the Bai Iron Cavalry's brave charge and not afraid of death, it would be difficult for Qi Jishu to resist its offensive.
However, this does not mean that Qi Ji is not strong.
Qi Ji's attack is not as good as Zhao Bianqi and Qin Ruishi, it is a frontal battlefield.
However, in places outside the battlefield, such as assassinations and lurking in Zhongmu City, Zhao Biancai, Qin Ruishi, and Wei Wushu are all inferior to Qi Technique, even the most famous Bai Iron Cavalry is unattainable.
Qi country.
If you can have extraordinary skills, you can be selected for Qi Skill Attack.
It's not like Zhao Bianqi, Qin Ruishi, and Wei Wushu, as long as they are burly and strong, as long as they dare to charge and kill the enemy.
"Alas~! It's a pity, if that's the case, then it's really a pity that Qin General Bai Yan is not in Zhongmu City. ”
Chen Xuan listened to Tian Wei's words, stretched out his hand to open the small wooden window of the carriage, looked at the man in the hat outside, and said with regret.
If it is as Tian Wei said, in the complex terrain of Zhongmu City, whether it is the Xianyang defenders escorting Yingzheng or the Bai clan's iron cavalry, they will be restricted by those houses and streets, and they will not be able to resist the surprise assassination of Qi Jiji.
That Qin general Bai Yan is in Zhongmu City at this time, how good it should be, there is really only a dead end.
I don't know if there will be such a good opportunity next time.
Inside the alley.
With the group all sitting in the carriage, under the gaze of the master, the group escorted the two carriages and began to slowly drive towards the city gate.
In the carriage behind, Bai Yan, Wu Gao, and Corpse Yan sat inside.
Bai Yan has a good relationship with Wu Gao, and the corpse weir is here to target Wu Gao, after all, the most impulsive one now is Wu Gao, as long as Wu Gao can restrain himself, nothing will happen.
"Brother Wu, I hope to focus on the overall situation, don't cause more trouble on this trip!"
Feeling the shaking of the carriage, the corpse weir said to Wu Gao.
Xingyang sits on the Turbid River, and its status and position are destined to be extremely prosperous in commerce and trade, and since the beginning of the grandfather's corpse, the corpse and the Wu family have been in close contact, and the corpse weir has also been friends with Wu Gao since childhood.
The same is true, as a relationship between acquaintances since childhood, and often moving around after a long time, the corpse weir knows Wu Gao too well, from this morning, Wu Gao was silent, without saying a word, the corpse weir concluded that it is likely that Wu Gao had arranged for someone to go to Handan in advance last night.
"I know!"
Wu Gao heard the words of the corpse weir and responded, and then did not say much.
Looked at.
The corpse weir knew Wu Gao's duplicity, so he could only look at Xu Zixiao beside Wu Gao.
The corpse weir knows very well that the reason why Wu Gao is so angry is because of Xu Zixiao, if it wasn't for that person who assassinated Xu Zixiao, Wu Gao would not have disregarded Tian Wei's identity and background, and almost turned his face with Tian Wei last night.
"Zixiao! The corpse weir knows that although the Xu family does not want to participate in the disputes in the world, however, Zixiao should know that Yingzheng is not dead, the world is restless, and it is difficult for the Xu family to be alone! Hope ......"
The corpse weir faced Bai Yan, raised his hands, and after finishing speaking, he said seriously: "Persuade Brother Wu!" ”
Wu Gao heard the words of the corpse weir and turned his head to look to the side.
When Bai Yan saw the appearance of the corpse weir, he also raised his hand to return the salute.
"Rest assured, this trip is not only Brother Wu, but also Zixiao, and he will not seek personal revenge, and forget his carelessness, after all, compared to Zixiao's personal vendetta, Zixiao is more urgent to get rid of Guo Kai."
After Bai Yan returned the salute, he said softly.
After all that's said.
Bai Yan looked at the corpse weir that was just relieved, and then looked at Wu Gao.
Seeing Wu Gao looking aside, Bai Yan could only stretch out his hand and touch Wu Gao gently.
"I didn't tell Hu Cong to go to Handan today!"
Wu Gao turned his head to see Bai Yan's gaze and said.
Early this morning, the people in the mansion, whether it was the lord or other scholars, even Chen Xuan and Zhu Xun, asked him and Xu Zixiao to go without taking anyone with them.
Wu Gao is not stupid, he can't see it, everyone is worried, after he and Xu Zixiao went to Handan, as soon as they were detoxified, they immediately ordered Hu Cong to do it.
"And what about last night?"
Hearing Wu Gao's words, Corpse Yan asked.
It's okay not to say that the corpse weir is good, as soon as he said it, Wu Gao immediately widened his eyes and looked directly at the corpse weir, which means that you are on that side, who is closer to you.
"I knew it!"
Seeing Wu Gao's appearance, the corpse weir knew that Wu Gao was really on fire, so he shook his head and muttered helplessly.
Wu Gao's move was undoubtedly to let the corpse weir confirm the conjecture of Fang Cai, Wu Gao had indeed ordered someone to go to Handan early this morning after the banquet last night.
"Zixiao rest assured, this trip to Handan City, then Guo Kai, we will do it!"
The corpse weir looked at Bai Yan.
Bai Yan nodded, as a matter of not taking people to Handan and getting rid of Guo Kai, it naturally fell on Tian Wei, Chen Xu, and the corpse weir.
And Tian Wei bluntly said last night that Mrs. Xu will be of great use in the future, and I hope that Mrs. Xu will not be touched at the moment, and in exchange, the matter of getting rid of Guo Kai will be handed over to him Tian Wei.
Accompanied by a noisy noise.
The carriage soon came to the city gate, and several Qin officials wearing official clothes were checking at the city gate, and the carriage of Bai Yan and his party was also stopped by the Qin officials.
Bai Yan stretched out his hand at this time, opened the wooden window on the side, and looked out of the window.
When he saw those Qin officials at the city gate, Bai Yan noticed that those Qin officials were wearing thick clothes inside their clothes, and they were all in the same style.
Seeing this, the corners of Bai Yan's mouth rose slightly vaguely.
No one knows better than Bai Yan where the clothes in their bodies come from for these Qin officials guarding the city gates.
Put down the wooden windows.
Bai Yan didn't look at those Qin officials again, but closed his eyes.
Soon, after the groom's order, the carriage slowly followed the carriage in front of it and walked out of the city.
And due to the rain, after leaving Zhongmu City, Bai Yan and his party did not go far, did not rush to Anyang overnight, but entered Fangling City before sunset.
When he arrived at Fangling City, Bai Yan originally thought that the carriage should go directly to the cottage.
Unexpectedly, just after entering Fangling City, the carriage drove directly to a mansion, and the scale of this mansion was not smaller than the mansion where Zhongmu City, Bai Yan, Tian Wei and others lived.
"This lord is really a big business!"
Feeling that the rain was much lighter, Chen Xun stepped out of the carriage, looked at the mansion and sighed, then turned around and called an entourage.
"Go and find out!"
Chen Xuan said.
After Bai Yan heard this, he looked at Chen Xuan with some surprise, but he didn't expect Chen Xuan to seem to be a slippery person, he never thought that he was such a cautious person, so he went to Fangling City and ordered someone to inquire about the news.
With such a vigilant heart, such a person will live a very nourishing life no matter what happens in the future, and it is enough for people to trust and rest assured.
Come to think of it.
Bai Yan sighed in his heart, in the end, he is a child of a family, and his thinking is different compared to that of a teenager from an ordinary family.
Just as Bai Yan was thinking.
"Go and ask the servants in the mansion, there are a few restaurants in this Fangling City, the woman in the restaurant looks good, the wine is good, go quickly!"
Chen Xu instructed.
After speaking, he asked his entourage to hurry to the mansion to ask.
"Ahem~!"
Bai Yan coughed and looked at Chen Xuan with surprise.
"Hey, hey, I'm idle, I won't talk about business tonight, I'm tired all the way, let's go to the restaurant for recreation together, I'll pay for it!"
Chen Xuan saw Bai Yan's gaze and said with a smile.
Chen Xuan didn't know what Bai Yan was thinking, in Chen Xu's eyes, there was a man in the world who didn't like to go to restaurants outside, even Tian Wei was no exception.
】
Don't look at Tian Wei as a serious person, reliable in his work, and noble in status, but when he is not in the camp, he returns to Tian Wei in Linzi, and the number of times he goes to the restaurant is called a frequent.
Although everyone was born into a noble family, they have no worries about food and clothing since childhood, and there will be no shortage of women around them.
However, being at home does not mean that he does not like to play outside, and when he goes out, that man does not like to meet strange women in other places and feel some women thousands of miles away from home.
Besides, if you are far away from home at the moment, if you don't have anything to do, then in addition to hunting, after sunset, you can only go to the restaurant to have fun.
"Tian Wei, you must give me the most beautiful beauty tonight!"
Chen Xuan turned his head to look at his friend's handsome face, and said with a sour taste.
Tian Wei didn't answer Chen Xu, but glanced at his friend teasingly.
Half an hour later.
Under the leadership of a servant, Bai Yan, Tian Wei, Wu Gao and others were taken to a restaurant.
Don't look at Fangling City is not as good as Zhongmu and Anyang, but the restaurant in the city is no different from Zhongmu and Anyang.
The restaurant was full of lively atmosphere, a rather beautiful woman saw Chen Xuan and others, looking at Chen Xuan and others dressed in silk clothes and with accessories, where did they not know that the young people who came were all noble gentlemen, different from others.
So the level of enthusiasm didn't even let the other women lead the way, but came to Chen Xuan with his head scratched, and looked at Tian Sui's handsome cheeks again, and led the group up.
.
Whether it was Chen Xuan or the corpse weir, their eyes kept looking at the woman's wonderful figure.
Bai Yan also observed that even Wu Gao next to him, his Adam's apple kept moving, and he had obviously quietly swallowed a lot of saliva, and his mouth was dry.
Soon.
Bai Yan followed the group and came to an exquisite private room, whether it was hung cloth or wood carving, it looked very exquisite, and under the candlelight, the whole room could be seen very clearly.
"Come up!"
The woman may have felt the eyes of Chen Xuan and the corpse weir, so she did not leave in a hurry, and after Tian Wei and the others took their seats, she instructed many young women to come to the private room.
The women who had been waiting outside the door for a long time entered the private room one after another, and under the selection of Tian Sui, Chen Xu and others, they each stepped forward and knelt beside them.
Bai Yan also chose a woman at random, but it was different from Tian Wei and Wu Gao.
Everyone else looked at the woman's appearance, but Bai Yan saw this woman only and was not very skillful, so he chose it.
This made Corpse Yan, Chen Xuan and the others full of surprises, and even Wu Gao looked at Bai Yan with a strange look.
Because in terms of appearance, although the woman selected by Bai Yan is also very exquisite, she is far from being a beauty, and even among all the women called by the woman, she belongs to the middle and lower.
Everyone couldn't imagine that Bai Yan would not choose other women with better appearances, and choose such a woman.
But this is just a small episode, and everyone does not take it seriously.
After the banquet begins.
In the private room, laughter began to sound, Wu Gao, Corpse Yan and others hugged the lovely people in their arms, laughing and talking while drinking.
Chen Xuan and the woman in his arms, no one knows whether the woman can have a good person, but you have love and I have righteousness, everyone is already surprised, and they will not be broken.
Bai Yan did not choose fine wine because he was unwell.
However, as time passed, Bai Yan found that the woman who poured tea for herself next to her would always sneak to Tian Wei behind the wooden table opposite in her spare time.
Looked at.
Bai Yan was not surprised.
In this private room, Tian Wei and Corpse Yan are both from noble backgrounds since childhood, and they can naturally make people feel good when they speak, not to mention the appearance, Tian Wei's handsome cheeks, which are rarely disliked by ordinary women.
It can be seen from Chen Xu's blunt protest that he has experienced this kind of thing in Qi State before.
So right now, looking at the woman beside him looking at Tian Wei from time to time with a look of affection, Bai Yan didn't care.
Even Bai Yan himself is not a person who loves beauty.
Come to think of it.
In Bai Yan's heart, a figure suddenly appeared, the violent clan who had gone to Yanmen.
I don't know, how is she now?
"Zixiao!"
Tian Wei hugged a delicate woman, seemed to feel something, looked at the woman beside Bai Yan, a touch of indifference appeared in her eyes, and then looked at Bai Yan, a touch of helplessness flashed in her eyes.
"Do you have a song you want to hear?"
Tian Wei asked.
Bai Yan heard Tian Wei's inquiry, and after coming back to his senses, he subconsciously blurted out.
"Qi Zheng!"
Bai Yan laughed and replied softly.
Feeling that the woman pouring tea beside her trembled slightly, Bai Yan looked at Tian Wei, a little surprised, and suddenly understood why Chen Xu and Tian Wei had such a good relationship.
The gentleman is frank and open, and the eldest brother of Tian Feiyan is such a person, and he deserves this sentence.
"Qi Zheng?"
Tian Wei was a little surprised when he heard Bai Yan's words.
Then he turned his head and asked the woman in Chen Xu's arms, if there are women in this restaurant, there are women who can Qi Zheng.
"Qi Zheng?"
When Chen Xuan heard Tian Wei's inquiry, he also looked at Bai Yan with surprise.
"Yes, don't worry, the concubine will go and ask her to come over and play the guzheng for you!"
The woman replied with a smile.
A moment later, while Chen Xu, Bai Yan, and Tian Wei were talking, a woman was taken to the private room by the woman.
"Gentleman, drink tea~!"
The woman who poured tea for Bai Yan said resignedly.
Although she was taken aback by Tian Wei just now, this woman is honest and has a lot of duties, but in her mind, Tian Wei's appearance still appears.
Looking at the gentleman in front of her, who can only be regarded as delicate and easy-going, she still fantasizes in her heart, if she is not by the side of this gentleman, but by the side of another wooden table, the handsome gentleman, how good it would be.
Although the gentleman in front of him was young, his face was pale, like a man who was seriously ill.
"Thank you!"
Bai Yan looked at the fifteen or sixteen-year-old woman beside him, and said softly, still very polite, and did not despise it because of the woman's identity, and it seemed that he didn't feel anything about it.
And Bai Yan's actions also made the woman who had been smiling and talking to Chen Xuan and pouring wine notice.
"Which gentleman is from where?"
The woman turned her head to look at Chen Xu, smiled and asked in Chen Xu's ear.
In the eyes of the woman, the woman named Yu would have already been annoyed and angry if she had been someone else.
But the young man didn't, and she clearly saw that the young man's eyes were not hypocritical, but real.
This surprised her.
It also made her see all kinds of people, and it was the first time she had seen someone of such strength at such an age.
"Him?"
Chen Xun heard the inquiry of the beautiful woman in his arms, smiled and closed his mouth, Chen Xun was not surprised by the curiosity of the beautiful woman.
"You don't need to know his identity, you just need to know that the woman sitting next to him is blind!"
As Chen Xuan spoke, he looked at the woman who had been secretly looking at Tian Wei just now, and her eyes were full of mockery.
Thinking of what Xu Zixiao had done, and remembering what he had learned from Tian Wei along the way, Chen Xu's heart was full of sneers.
"Huh?"
When the woman saw Chen Xu's words, she turned her head to look at Bai Yan.
At this moment, Chen Xu's words made her even more curious, looking at the slightly pale young man, she had a vague premonition that the young man she ignored at the beginning must be very unsimple.
Inside the private room.
Accompanied by a girl holding a zither, playing a song, the private room was full of the light sound of the zither for a while.
Bai Yan knelt behind the wooden table, savoring the guzheng played by the woman, and his face was thoughtful.
Tian Wei and Chen Xuan are from the country of Qi, listening to the guzheng of their mother country at the moment, hugging the woman, and slowly drinking the wine in the cup.
At this time, whether it was Tian Wei, Chen Xu, or Corpse Yan or Wu Gao, they didn't know that when they were listening to the woman playing Qi Zheng with Bai Yan, the place where they left today, the gate called Zhongmu City, had been slowly closed by several soldiers wearing Qin armor.
At the head of Zhongmu City, a succession of iron cavalry soldiers, armed with powerful Qin crossbows and torches, ran in the city road.
Inside the city gates.
The vertical row of iron cavalry soldiers came to the city gate to stop, and then, under the command of an iron cavalry general, they all turned to face the city, and Changge and crossbows were full of vigilance against the silent streets.
The other side.
Outside the alleys of the main mansion.
Six men in cloth clothes were talking to each other outside a shop at the mouth of the alley, when they suddenly saw footsteps in the dark night on the street in the distance.
Seeing this, the two looked at each other with doubt.
However, under the gaze of the six people, in an instant, there was a firelight at the corner of the street in the distance, and then a dense crowd of Qin cavalry soldiers, wearing hats and holding torches, ran from the other side of the street.
"Not good!"
"Hurry up and report to your lordship!"
When these six men saw this scene, they immediately realized that the army of the Qin State appeared in the city at some point, and that something was wrong, so they hurriedly got up.
However, before the six of them could turn their heads and run to the side alley, eight or nine men dressed in black suddenly appeared, all armed with sharp blades.
"Kill!"
Wearing a black cloth robe, he walked with a sword in his hand.
After finishing speaking, Huai raised his hands, put one hand on the hilt of the sword, directly pulled out the sword, and after discarding the hilt, he took the sword with both hands and killed the six people.
Three steps and two steps, born in the arms of the first, the turn of fierceness is naturally not a problem.
Before and after, he slapped hard at a man's back, and his strength even made the wooden table on the side splash with a deep bloodstain.
The body fell to the ground.
Huai watched as the other four men took out the dagger from their arms, ready to fight for their lives, Huai's eyes were full of fierceness.
Feeling the soldiers on the left and right, they had already drawn their swords and stepped forward to kill those men.
Holding the blade unhurriedly, he slammed hard at the first man who kept wielding the dagger, and when the man retreated in fear to dodge the blade, he quickly pounced on the man with anger and ferocity.
In the man's frightened gaze, a piece pierced the man's abdomen, and the man felt that the man still wanted to use his last strength to stab himself with a dagger.
Huai held the sword in one hand and grabbed the man's hand in the other.
When the man's wrist gradually lost strength, he slowly pulled out the sharp blade, and then kicked it to the wooden table, and fell to the ground along with the wooden table.
"Don't leave a mouth alive!"
Huai watched the other men being killed, and the rest were already dying, so he said softly.
Between words.
Huai saw that under the cover of the four people, the last man had already run to the dark alley.
So he took the blade in his hand, stepped over the corpse, and walked into the alley.
A moment later.
In the main mansion, the door was wrapped in thick clothes, and two servants who were talking suddenly heard a faint knock on the door.
"Someone's knocking on the door? Did you hear that? ”
"Huh?"
The two servants looked at each other and listened carefully, but they did not hear any movement, which was very strange.
And right outside the door.
Huai looked at the man who was lying on the door and slowly sliding, and looked up at the mansion in front of him, the place that the general ordered to be eradicated.
Soon.
Behind him there was the sound of footsteps, and the light of the fire.
Huai turned his head to look at the rows of iron cavalry soldiers armed with bows and crossbows and Qin swords, there were more than three hundred people.
"The general has an order, this time, don't leave a living mouth!"
Huai opened his mouth and ordered everyone.
After saying that, Huaiyi stood beside the corpse with a sword in his hand, and turned around and knocked on the door.
A few breaths later.
The door to the mansion slowly opened.
However, when the two servants opened the door, they saw the first thing they saw was a corpse with their heads on the ground, and then they looked up and saw the arms of the blood-stained blade.
The two servants looked frightened, and before they could react, the next moment, a faint blade slashed through the air.
A little bloodstain, in the dark of the night, splashed on the door.
Inside the mansion.
As usual, the lord and elder led his people to set up a banquet and entertain the guests.
Looking at the lobby, Miaoman's singer danced, and the lord had already imagined that as soon as Yingzheng died, the Qin State would be in chaos, but they would be able to welcome back King Zhao and subdue the lost land of Zhao, and the main clan would also gain the trust of King Zhao and enjoy endless glory and wealth.
However, just as the lord was looking forward to the future, suddenly a servant hurried into the mansion.
"Ah~!"
One of the dancing girls was even knocked to the ground because she wasn't paying attention.
This sudden scene made everyone unexpected, so a dozen or so guests from other clans all looked at the elder.
"What?"
The old man frowned, and looked at the servant with displeasure.
The father of the lord and the lord also stopped talking to the others.
"What's going on?"
Jing Shu asked.
When Zhu Xun heard Jing Qi's words, he also shook his head, indicating that he didn't know what the situation was.
"My lord, it's not good, the Qin army has surrounded the mansion and has already entered the mansion!"
The servant didn't care about anything else at this moment, and hurriedly knelt on the ground to report.
As soon as this remark came out.
In the entire lobby, everyone stood up in shock, and their faces changed drastically.
"What?"
"Qin Jun? How could there be a Qin army? ”
"That's right! What is the right thing now? ”
Hearing the servant's words, everyone exclaimed in disbelief and looked around at each other, even Huan Chu, Jing Qi and the others all looked at each other, their eyes a little flustered.
Everyone was a little dazed, unable to believe what they were hearing.
That's when it happened.
In the lobby, many people faintly heard the screams of the maids outside, as well as the screams of some servants.
"Not good!"
Huan Chu also heard the movement outside, and then shook his head with his eyes full of horror.
After realizing the leaked news, Huan Chu, Jing Qi, Jing Shu and the others, along with all the other flustered guests, all looked at the main elder.
