Chapter 24 Li Jiancheng
Su Jianxia turned his head to look, on the other side of the road, several men dressed in what seemed to be the uniform servants of a certain family were galloping towards the city gate on horseback.
Before the person arrived, the horsewhip in his hand had already swung forward, and some old people who were slow to move and women who couldn't dodge were all severely beaten several times, and the force was so great that the skin and flesh of the place where the whip fell were instantly opened, and the flesh and blood were blurred.
Most of the people in the city seemed to know where this group of people and horses came from, and after seeing it from afar, they hurriedly took refuge on both sides of the road, and soon vacated the road, and even the vendors on both sides gave up their stalls and did not hide aside, and they didn't dare to look at it when they were knocked over by horses, and the only thing left on the road was Su Jianxia, who was holding a piece of silk in his hand, and Wei Ziqi, who seemed to be in a daze.
"Girl, hurry up, that's the family members of Lord Yuwen's mansion, they are lawless in this Chang'an City! You thin-skinned and tender meat, I'm afraid you can't carry a whip! The uncle on the side saw that Su saw that Xia was not moving, and hurriedly shouted to her.
Yuwen-sama? Yu Culture & ? Su Jianxia had this name in his mind, and at the end of Sui, he killed Yang Guang, the emperor of Sui, and established himself as the emperor, but unfortunately he was destroyed by the army of the Tang Dynasty before he became the emperor for a few days.
Su Jianxia put down the silk in her hand, squinted her eyes at the rushing people, for this extremely arrogant Yuwen family, she also wanted to see how lawless the other party could be.
"Stinky girls, let's look for death!" Seeing that Su Jianxia not only did not hide, but also walked to the middle of the road, a middle-aged man led by him was even more furious, raised the whip in his hand and whipped it fiercely.
Everyone present closed their eyes, unable to bear to see this scene.
But neither the sound of the whip hitting the person nor Su Jianxia's screams came, and everyone opened their eyes with some confusion.
In the middle of the road, Su Jianxia was still standing motionless, without a trace of fear on her face, and in front of her, there was a young man in a white robe at some point.
The young man is about twenty years old, his appearance is extremely good-looking, and he has the temperament of a noble boy in the sun, but he grabbed the whip that was still in the air with his left hand, and his right hand was holding a long sword against the throat of a middle-aged man, and he looked like a heroic boy with high martial arts.
The man tried hard to withdraw the whip, but the young man who looked a little bookish was not small, the whip did not move in the air, but the cold touch of the long sword against his throat was even worse.
"Boy, do you know who I am, uncle?" The man stared unnaturally at the tip of the long sword, and a drop of cold sweat dripped from his forehead and fell on the blade of the sword, but the man's tone was still very tough.
"In today's country, those who dare to be so high-flying on the streets of Chang'an City, except for the people of the Yuwen family, I can't think of anyone else." The boy's voice was soft, but it was a heavy tone.
When the man heard that the other party saw his identity, he immediately straightened his waist, "Since you know the identity of the uncle, don't get out of the way!" Angered uncle, I will arrest you and torture you! ”
The young man sneered: "Why, Yu Wenhua and can cover the sky in the court so quickly?" You lackeys of the Yuwen family really think of yourself as a person. ”
"Bold! How dare you call the prime minister by his name! Did you know it's a crime of head-killing? The man shouted angrily.
"I only know that calling the emperor by his name is the crime of killing the head, when did Yu Wenhua have the same status as the emperor?"
"What a sharp-toothed boy, I want to see if you really dare to kill me!" The man stretched out his hand, "Come on, take this kid down for me, and go back to Uncle Ben to ask for a reward for you in front of the prime minister!" ”
After the man finished speaking, everyone behind him jumped off the horse, drew the long knife at his waist, and pressed towards the young man step by step.
"Girl, it may be a little chaotic to fight for a while, and it will not be good to disturb the girl's Yaxing, please take a few steps back for the girl, and wait for these people to be solved, and it will not be too late for the girl to go shopping again." Looking at the more than a dozen tall and tall family members opposite, the young man was not flustered, but turned around and smiled and reminded Su Jianxia to be careful.
Su Jianxia looked at the smiling young man in front of him with some curiosity, "What's your name?" ”
"I ......"
As soon as the young man was about to answer, there was a vibration on the wide road, accompanied by the sound of heavy armored iron horses stepping on the road, and the crisp sound of heavy armor colliding.
Everyone turned their heads to look over, and on the other side of the road, a heavy cavalry team of about 10,000 people was slowly advancing towards the city.
Both the soldiers and the horses wore black armor and black masks on their faces, which only leaked out of their eyes. The movements were uniform, and although the team was not close to the crowd, the murderous aura of the perennial battlefield still permeated the entire street.
At the front of the team, a black battle flag of more than ten meters was held high, and a big "Li" character was embroidered on it in block letters.
The black war horse walked towards several people with uniform steps, and the sound of the hooves of the heavily armored war horse stepped on the ground with each step, as if it was trampling on the hearts of the surrounding crowd.
"Stop!"
With the order of the leading general, this 10,000-strong heavy cavalry stopped in place as if it were marching.
The general's gaze swept over the bodies of several people in front of him, then he turned over and dismounted, walked quickly to the young man, and knelt down on one knee.
"The last general, Li Xun, see the young master!"
"Young master?"
"Could it be that he is the eldest son of Tang Guogong?"
"No wonder you dare to go toe-for-tat with the people of the Yuwen family in the Chang'an realm, it turns out to be the eldest young master of the Li family!"
With the salute of General Li Xun, the people of Chang'an City around him also guessed the identity of the young man in white.
Now in the Great Sui, whether it is inside the palace or outside the palace, the only one who dares to go against the Yuwen family in such a way is the Li family where Li Yuan, the Duke of Tang Guogong, is located.
Then this young man is naturally the eldest son of Tang Guogong.
The young man put away his long sword, waved his hand to signal Li Xun to be exempt, and then smiled at Su Jianxia: "My name is Li Jiancheng, and he is a scholar. ”
"It turns out that you are Li Jiancheng." Su Jianxia looked at the young man in front of him, a little surprised.
It was difficult for her to associate the uneven and gentle young man in front of her with the gentleman who did not learn or know how to eat, drink and have fun in the mouth of Professor Li in the class of Jiang University twenty minutes ago.
"The girl has heard of me?" Li Jiancheng looked at the girl in front of him, and he also had some doubts in his heart, although he was also wearing the same clothes as the people around him, but the girl in front of him always gave him a feeling of being out of place here.
Su Jianxia tilted his head and said truthfully: "The eldest son of Tang Guogong Li Yuan, naturally I have heard of it. ”
"Bold! Dare to call Tang Guogong by name! Li Xun shouted in a deep voice.
"Li Xun!" Li Jiancheng frowned: "What's the difference between you and those people from the Yuwen family?" Is it guilty to call a name? ”
Seeing that the young master was a little angry, Li Xun hurriedly lowered his head and took a step back.
"Apologize to this girl." Li Jiancheng's voice carried some unquestionable tone.
Li Xun hesitated, looked at Li Jiancheng's sinking face, and hurriedly hugged his fist towards Su Jianxia and said, "I have offended a lot, please don't be surprised." ”
Su Jianxia glanced not far away, and laughed softly: "You are lucky to save your life." ”
Li Xun was stunned for a moment, and said a little angrily: "What do you mean, girl?" ”
"What she means is that if you apologize a little later, you might die."
A cold voice came from behind him, and Li Xun, who had been fighting on the battlefield all year round, almost subconsciously reached out and touched the long sword on his waist, but no matter how hard he tried, the long sword on his waist couldn't be unsheathed.
The brain reacted subconsciously, and Li Xun hurriedly rolled on the spot, distanced himself from the person behind him, and shouted at the same time: "Array!" ”
The well-trained Li Jiajun was vividly reflected at this moment, and at the moment when Li Xun stood up again, the vanguard of the cavalry behind him dismounted at the same time, and hundreds of soldiers wearing heavy armor surrounded several people.
Li Jiancheng frowned, and was just about to reprimand Li Xun for acting casually, when he saw that the man who suddenly appeared behind Li Xun just now just gently pressed down the folding fan in his hand out of thin air, and the hundreds of soldiers surrounding him, including General Li Xun, seemed to be pressed by something, and all of them fell to their knees, and the force was so great that the slate bricks on the road even appeared dented and cracked.
"Can you soldiers put away your temper, I just wanted to say that the people of the Yuwen family are arrogant, and now it seems that your Li family is also each other." Su Jianxia shook his head.
"There is no way to lead the troops below, and some of these soldiers who are accustomed to indulgence do not know the height of the sky, and please don't be angry with General Li and the soldiers, if the girl feels offended, she can blame the subordinates, and she is willing to suffer for General Li and these soldiers." Li Jiancheng was a little anxious, and hurriedly walked to Su Jianxia in two steps and hugged his fist.
Looking at the heartfelt worry about the soldier in the eyes of the young man in front of him, the eldest prince of Guiwei was still willing to bow his head and apologize to an unknown little person, and Su Jianxia was also a little unbearable.
"Li Gongzi doesn't have to do this, it's not your fault in the first place, the army will inevitably be contaminated with some bad atmosphere outside, and this is not something you can change.
What's more, we didn't hurt them, but only punished them slightly, which is not even a minor injury for these battle-hardened soldiers. ”
Su Jianxia stretched out his hand to help Li Jiancheng bent down, "With your status, except for the emperor, you don't have to bow your head to anyone." ”
Li Jiancheng seemed to be a little surprised, looking up at the girl in front of him, and his eyes were even more puzzled.
