Lao Wei and others' hearts almost rolled out of their throats.
As for the four forbidden troops, Yin Xiao stopped them with just one shot of his gun, and they were in a stalemate less than ten steps away from the corner gate.
The dead man who was hiding in the dark to protect Zhang Xutang came out with his sword, but as soon as he took action, it fell into the hands of Yin Xiao and You Song, and blood spattered three feet.
Zhang Xutang had the imperial army to help him today, so he had a plan in mind. He wanted to trap Song Huiyue and his party in an urn to catch turtles, but unexpectedly, Yinxiao appeared on the way and changed his plan. What made him even more unexpected was Song Huiyue.
The man who should have run for his life in a panic was actually quick-thinking and took him hostage neatly.
What a shame, why is he surrounded by idiots!
An invisible fire went straight to Zhang Xutang's head. If the fire were tangible, he and Song Huiyue would be cremated on the spot.
But the matter is not over yet. Song Huiyue has quick wits, and so does he.
He gritted his teeth and leaned back, trying to stay away from the knife in Song Huiyue's hand. However, when he moved, the knife also moved, and Zhang Xutang, who had thin skin and tender flesh, immediately saw blood.
"Don't move in the yamen," Song Huiyue said in a deep voice, "I'm a skilled person. If you move around, my hands may be out of my control and hurt you."
Zhang Xutang did not dare to lower his head, but glanced down hard with his eyes, and found that Song Huiyue's hand was really shaking slightly.
Song Huiyue was shorter than him, so if she wanted to hold him hostage, she would have to lift her hands up with great effort, which would inevitably cause them to shake over time.
He raised his eyes again and looked around. Under the hazy outlines, he saw a group of distinctive gangsters.
It is as if Song Huiyue is a murderous boss who responds to a hundred calls, and her subordinates are both cherishing their lives and willing to sacrifice their lives, all with a charlatan attitude.
Song Huiyue said calmly: "Zhang Yanei, I'd like to borrow your family's carriage for use, and ask the Zhang family's lackeys to give way."
The four Imperial Guards who stayed here felt displeased when they heard the word "dog walking by".
They were only ordered to come today. Today is Tianning Festival and there is something unusual happening in the Zhang family. To prevent the enemy country from causing chaos, they will come. But looking at the situation now, it seems that they are letting the Zhang family take advantage of it.
Zhang Xutang sneered, and suddenly pulled out a dagger from the belt around his waist. He hugged Song Huiyue's waist with his backhand, making Song Huiyue's abdomen close to his back, and the tip of the knife pressed against her back.
.
The dagger is gorgeous, with a rhinoceros horn handle. The scabbard on the belt at the waist is studded with red and emeralds the size of fingernails. The gold and jade on the belt complement each other, making people forget that this is a dagger.
With Zhang Xutang's movement, Song Huiyue's knife went further into his throat, and blood dripped down onto Zhang Xutang's feet.
And Zhang Xutang retaliated with tooth, thrust the tip of the knife into Song Huiyue's back, and said with a ferocious smile: "If I die, you won't be able to live."
You Song held Yin Xiao firmly and shouted to him in a low voice: "Don't disturb the lady's position."
Song Huiyue didn't make a sound, she gritted her teeth and endured. When the pain subsided, she smiled and said, "It's worth my life in exchange for yours."
The wind blew past the two of them and filled the narrow corner door of Zhang's house with a whimpering sound.
Tonight, swords and swords were at war with each other. However, in the end, it was Zhang Xutang and Song Huiyue, two people who couldn't use a single move, that made people stand in a stalemate.
Yin Xiao stared closely at the two men confronting each other with knives, ready to take action at any time. Looking at the blood dripping from Song Huiyue's back to the ground, she wished she could eat Zhang Xutang alive.
You Song's palms and back were sweaty as he looked at it, and his mouth was dry from nervousness. He thought that the lady was quick to spot the opportunity. If they didn't hold Zhang Xutang hostage, even if they fought their way out from here, they would still have to face interrogation by the imperial army.
The dead men of the Zhang family were thoughtless. They obeyed Zhang Xutang's orders and naturally stopped moving after Zhang Xutang was kidnapped. However, if Zhang Xutang insisted on letting them rush over and continue to attack, they would not hesitate.
hesitate.
Zhang Lin and others did not want to be buried with Zhang Xutang, but they were all worried about Zhang Xutang.
The four Imperial Guards looked at the situation in front of them with cold faces. They were not lackeys of the Zhang family, nor were they courtiers who flocked to the Zhang family. The order they received was to catch the thieves who broke into the Zhang family, and they would carry out this order to the end.
As for Zhang Xutang, it would be better not to die, but there is nothing he can do if he dies.
But now Yin Xiao stopped them with a spear, making them unable to move at all. They could neither arrest people nor go back to report the news. They could only stay where they were like everyone else.
What's even more irritating is that the sky is getting darker and darker, and the lights of the Zhang family have been put out by Song Huiyue. They can't see the appearance of these thieves at all.
If you want to arrest these people based on their physical appearance alone, it will take a lot of effort given the excitement of Tinian Festival.
From this point of view, the only one who really cares about Zhang Xutang's life and death is Lao Wei, who looks like a stone man.
Lao Wei was anxious and angry, and he hated Song Huiyue even more.
Ever since Zhang Xutang met Song Huiyue from Tanzhou, the old wounds have not healed and new ones have been added, all thanks to this young lady. This young lady came to the Zhang family again and again to provoke her. It was really...
Infuriating.
I just regret that Song Huiyue always carries that nurse with her and never finds a chance to kill her.
Zhang Xutang and Song Huiyue even wanted to devour each other alive.
Both of them endured the pain of their flesh and blood, but their faces were expressionless, their eyes were dark, they said nothing, and neither of them was willing to give in.
Zhang Xutang's posture is distorted, but his hands are steadier than Song Huiyue's.
Song Huiyue said to Zhang Xutang: "Does Zhang Yanei think that I dare not die with you?"
Zhang Xutang also sneered and did not give in - it was just a bluff.
He could faintly hear music in his ears, not only from Zhouqiao, but also from Ouchi.
There are nine rounds of wine in the Tianning Festival banquet. The elegant music he is hearing now is the zhezhi dance performed after the seventh round of toasts. Soon, the banquet will end, and all the officials who have entered the palace will leave the palace with their hairpins.
King Jin is no exception.
Even if he is kidnapped, he will delay the time and drag King Jin into it.
Although he looked calm, he didn't know that his cheeks were bitten stiff and his face was distorted in pain.
Seeing that he was indifferent, Song Huiyue knew that the stalemate could not continue, so she immediately raised the knife across Zhang Xutang's neck.
The blade left Zhang Xutang's neck and was raised high up to his eyes. The blade was dripping with blood, all of his blood.
Before Zhang Xutang could see the specific shape of the blade, the knife suddenly fell down again. This time, it was neither a test nor a threat, but it was to kill Zhang Xutang.
The crowd who had been watching with bated breath were frightened by the sudden change and suddenly screamed. Lao Wei rushed forward, but was stopped by You Song. Yin Xiao stepped forward with his gun, trying to kill him in this flash of lightning.
In the meantime, Zhang Xutang's hand holding the knife was cut off.
All changes happened in an instant, but Song Hui's moon surface did not change color, and it seemed that he and Zhang Xutang were really going to die together.
"stop!"
Zhang Xutang trembled and raised both his hands. The knife in his hand fell to the ground with a clang. In one breath, he was covered in sweat. His clothes clung to his body and his legs became weak.
, could hardly stand, and his already pale face became even paler.
He did not expect that Song Huiyue would rather die with him than let him go.
