"You dare to scold me?"

Huo Yi was furious, a sword pierced Promise's shoulder, nailed him to the wall, and slapped Promise in the face, today he is no longer the adopted son of the Nuo family, but the eldest son of the Huo family, Huo Yi!

"Even if you kill me, you won't live long, and I can tell you the truth, when you deliver the letter to Nalan tomorrow, it will be your death. ”

Promise spat on the bloody spit, not caring about the pain in his shoulder, at this time he had to gamble, bet that Hoy still had a trace of sanity, even if his mother's life and death were uncertain, he couldn't show half of his hatred at this time.

Huo Yi was shocked by what he said, he was not stupid, what he said was not impossible, but he still retorted, "Impossible, Duke Nalan will not lie to me, as long as I help him destroy your Nuo family, then I will be the head of the Huo family, killing me will only make enemies, it is impossible for him to do this." ”

"Hehe, do you believe this yourself? If you kill your Huo family, you will be the enemy of Duke Nalan, this is simply the coldest joke I have ever heard, if your Huo family is really so backbone, it would have been wiped out during the battle of Pingding, and in the end, it was not a tail wagging and begging, attached to our Nuo family, as a shadow, don't you think you know too much? Why did Nalan leave you this hidden danger. ”

"Tomorrow he just needs to find an excuse casually, for example, if you go out to deliver a letter and are intercepted by him, you can also convict the Nuo family, and you can kill you logically, as for the Huo family, don't you also say it, it's just a group of people who are afraid of death, they will clean it up, and by the way, cut off your head and hang it on the city wall to show their loyalty. ”

Promise sneered and said, even if this is just his empty speculation, but Huo Yi definitely doesn't dare to bet, he is not stupid, otherwise it is impossible to endure in the Nuo family for so long.

Huo Yi gradually calmed down, he suddenly realized how embarrassing his situation was at the moment, but he was also secretly glad that if it wasn't for his impulsive actions tonight, he was afraid that he wouldn't know how to die tomorrow.

Seeing his face of being afraid of rejoicing, the hatred in his heart was even stronger, and for the first time in his life, he had the idea of revenge, and after thinking for a moment, he smiled and said, "I've said it clearly enough, can't you figure it out?"

Sen Ran's teeth were stained with blood, and the smile of the promise made Hoy inexplicably feel a little afraid, but then he was pressed down by anger, he held the hilt of the sword tightly, and pushed it into the wound of the promise inch by inch, Hoy didn't want to see this smile! He just wanted to see this person wailing, crying, and begging for mercy in front of him!

But the more he did this, the louder he laughed, the pain in his body was far from enough to suppress the growing hatred in his heart, Huo Yi would never dare to kill himself, as long as he still wanted to live, he would not dare to do it, just like he said, the Huo family was all afraid of death, and he himself was the same.

"If you keep laughing, I swear, I'll stick a sword down your throat. ”

Huo Yi suppressed the indescribable fear or anger in his heart, he didn't want to die, he wanted to see Nolan's head cut off with his own eyes, he wanted to see the Nuo family completely destroyed, he wanted to go back to the Huo family to become the principal, revenge was only the first step, how could he be willing to die.

"Revenge should not be enough for you to pay for your life, think about it, now you are not of much value to Nalan, as long as you send these two letters to confirm the rebellion of the Nuo family, the value of your existence will disappear, Brother Hoy, you watched me grow up, we have lived together for more than ten years, haven't you? As long as you are willing to help me, I swear to the gods, no matter what you do, I will never pursue it. ”

The promise is extremely sincere, whether Hoy believes it or not, there is only this path in front of him, believe in yourself, otherwise the net will be broken, and everyone will die together.

"Of course, of course, I'm really sorry, I forgot, we are brothers who grew up together, and I was also carried away by hatred for a while. Hoy hesitated for a moment, then pulled his sword out of Promise's shoulder, wiping the blood from his face with his hand, and smiled as hypocritically as he could.

has lived together for more than ten years, and it is absolutely a lie to say that there is no emotion at all, but Hoy is not stupid, he knows very well what he has done, and it is impossible to forgive himself for his promise, but now there is no other way, whether it is acting or true love, it is better for everyone to sit down and talk about it first, things are not non-negotiable, and it is not interesting to make a trouble.

Promise let out a long breath, and finally stabilized the madman, he reached out and firmly pressed the wound on his shoulder, and sat down against the wall with difficulty, his face was as pale as paper after losing too much blood, and he was about to say something, but he felt that his eyes were dark, his throat seemed to be blocked by something, and he couldn't say half a word, and Hoy's voice became farther and farther away, softer and softer.

"Damn! What a young master, I can't stand such a little injury!"

Hoy was stunned for a moment, then sighed, and tore some strips of cloth to bandage the wound on Promise's shoulder.

"You're right, your Nuo family has treated me very well for more than ten years, but so what, if someone else might be grateful to your Nuo family, but for me, no matter what, this place is not my home, Nolan is not my father, you are not my brother, to me, you are just enemies, so ...... Don't blame me, it's all karma, if you want to blame it, blame your father, he obviously chose not to kill in the first place. ”

He still couldn't do it after all, he hated Nolan, hated Nolan's wife, but he didn't have much hatred for the promise, the promise was only two or three years old when he pacified the war, and this matter had nothing to do with him.

Hoy wanted to end everything tonight, but when he actually stabbed the sword into Promise's shoulder, he suddenly realized that this child who had lived with him for more than ten years was actually not so hateful.

"You're very smart, but I'm not stupid, I won't pursue this kind of thing, who would believe it, if you can survive, you are welcome to seek revenge from me at any time, I'm Hoy waiting in Moon City." ”

Huo Yi left, he didn't have time to wait for the promise to wake up, who knows when Nalan will lead the army to surround the Wind Breath Castle, he wants to take advantage of this gap to leave the North Wind City and return to the Huo family in Moon City, as for these two letters, spend some money, and naturally someone will send them to Nalan's hands.

......

By the time Promise opened his eyes again, it was already the afternoon of the next day, and the dim sunlight shone on his cheeks through the curtains, and he couldn't feel any warmth, only the dust was flying, and the servants who served on weekdays didn't know where to go, probably all of them fled when they heard that the royal family was going to attack the Nuo family.

The wound is still a pain in the heart, Promise struggles to stand up, Hoy does not know where to go after the betrayal, his mother's life and death are uncertain, and the huge Storm's Rest Castle is only the principal of himself at the moment, and there is no time for himself to rest.

He was a little annoyed by his weakness, he fainted with such a little injury, and missed the perfect opportunity to negotiate with Hoy, which made him react, it is estimated that Nalan has already got the letter in his hand at this moment, and the charge of the Nuo family's rebellion is completely confirmed.

"Young Master, are you awake?"

The door was pushed open, and a thin old man walked into the house with hot water and towels.

"The Nuo family is in a precarious situation, why don't you leave, waiting to be seen as a rebel and a traitor?" Promise asked coldly, Hoy's betrayal made him distrust no one now.

"Master, I'm a lot older, even if I go, where can I go? There's no better way to live. ”

The old man sighed, except for him, the other servants in the Castle of Wind Breath fled, after all, they were not from the Nuo family, there was no loyalty at all, they were mostly begging for food, as soon as they heard that the royal family was going to do something to the Nuo family, they immediately scattered, and even stole everything they could steal before leaving.

"I'm sorry Maester Rook, I'm ...... Not in a good mood, my mother ...... How's she doing, and have you seen Hoy, what's going on outside?"

Promise rubbed his eyebrows, and the excessive blood loss made him feel muddy and irritable until now.

Luke was silent, he walked over to Promise with hot water, helped him remove the blood-soaked strip of cloth from his shoulder, wiped the wound with a towel and hot water, and bandaged it again with as gentle a movement as possible.

"Young master, Duke Nalan led the Iron Guards to surround the Storm's Rest Castle early in the morning, and today it has launched the third attack, but they have all been stopped, each other is still testing, the casualties are limited, and they can't do anything for a while, I released more than a dozen letter crows out early this morning, I believe that it won't be long before Lord Nohe will lead the army north, you don't have to worry too much, as for Hoy, I didn't see him, otherwise he wouldn't be able to get out of the Storm's Breath Castle." ”

"You must be on guard at night, the other party may take advantage of the night to raid, Master Rook, I'll trouble you in the next few days. The promise advised, Luke avoided the topic, and the answer was self-evident, it was useless to be sad at the moment, only to get through this pass first can there be a follow-up.

"Young master, the Storm's Breath Fort can be self-sufficient, occupy the terrain, and it is not so easy to be captured, if Duke Nalan really wants to take advantage of the night to raid, we can also use this to counter him, the only thing I have to worry about now is whether the other party will have other means, otherwise with the Iron Guard alone, it is absolutely impossible to capture the Storm's Breath Castle, and it will be a waste of time, once Lord Nohe arrives, the result will be different." ”

Rooke's worries are not unreasonable, the evenly matched confrontation seems to be beneficial to Storm's Breath, but in fact, the other party's futile move has made Rook more and more uneasy, Nalan is not stupid, and the queen is not stupid, they know very well that once the Nuo family and the Lejia join forces to fight back, the royal family will not be able to curry favor.

There is only one explanation, where you can't see it, the other party has already fallen.

Promise was silent for a moment, exhaled deeply, walked to the wooden frame, stretched out his hand to caress his father's cold armor, turned to Rook and said, "Master Rook, give me two days, if I can't come back before the day after tomorrow, please tell Uncle Nohe, no matter what, save my father and kill Hoy!"
