Chapter 81: The hands can be stained with blood for the brothers
The hot tea is rolling, dispelling the cold air of autumn.
Zhang Qing wanted to drink all the tea in one gulp, but then he thought about people saying that Lian Xiaojun's mountain spring water could be sold for a lot of money, so he sipped the tea in small sips. After drinking, he raised his head and saw Lian Xiaojun's eyes.
Unlike women who are as tender as water, men's fortitude can also make people's hearts melt.
"Does the world know that my eldest brother is such a considerate person?" Lian Xiaojun said, "I'm just afraid that my eldest brother will think this tea is precious and change his tea drinking habit, so I won't say anything."
Zhang Qing laughed and said, "Good tea should be drunk slowly."
Lian Xiaojun picked up the tea and drank it all in one gulp. "Tea has only one benefit, which is to quench your thirst. Drink whatever you want to quench your thirst."
Zhang Qing laughed again, watched Lian Xiaojun finish his tea, and said seriously, "I can't protect myself now. I can't help you, Xiaojun. Of course, I know that you don't want my help, you're just doing business."
, you still have to seize the opportunity."
Lian Xiaojun asked, "Is Mr. Ma really valued by Governor An?"
Zhang Qing thought about it and said, "At least he is valued more than me. It is very rare that the governor is willing to give him so many troops."
Everyone knows that Ande is stingy and greedy for money.
Lian Xiaojun nodded, "That's great."
The friend turned around to find a new friend. Zhang Qing did not feel sad about being abandoned. Apart from being slightly sour, he was more sincerely happy. Of course, a person like Mr. Lian should get more people's love and help, even if
It would be an honor to have a piece of wood, stone or tile stepped on by him.
Lian Xiaojun stretched out his hand and said, "Brother, please give me a knife."
Zhang Qing was a little confused, but he handed his knife to Lian Xiaojun without hesitation. Lian Xiaojun picked up the knife and stood up and walked out.
Only then did Zhang Qing come to his senses and quickly asked, "Where are brothers Lian going?"
Lian Xiaojun, who was holding a long knife, turned around and smiled, "I'm going to kill Ma Jiang."
Zhang Qing jumped up from the ground in fright. Instead of shouting for the soldiers to come in, he stopped Lian Xiaojun and closed the door. Then he grabbed Lian Xiaojun's hand and whispered, "Brother Lian, what are you going to do?"
do what?"
Before Lian Xiaojun could answer, he had already thought of the answer. As a traitor, Ma Jiang had harmed so many civilians, and everyone had to punish him.
Even a brilliant person like Xiaojun should do his best to eliminate harm for the people.
In front of such a person, Zhang Qing looked gloomy and couldn't even say the words "If you kill him, I can't guarantee your safe departure."
How could such a hero be afraid of death?
In the end, he just murmured, "Brother Xiaojun, it's not worth it for you to sacrifice your life for this kind of people."
Lian Xiaojun smiled and held Zhang Qing's backhand, "But for you, brother, it's worth it."
Zhang Qing was startled, for him?
"Eldest brother is now abandoned by Ande Zhong. His future is hopeless. It is better to switch to Mingzhu." Lian Xiaojun said.
Switching to Mingzhu? Zhang Qing's heart was beating wildly, what Mingzhu?
"Of course it's Mrs. Chu from Huainan Road." Lian Xiaojun said, "You also said that Ma Jiang is now highly valued by Ande Zhong. If you can take his head to see Mrs. Chu, it will be a great achievement."
So that’s it. Zhang Qing’s nervousness and anxiety dissipated in an instant, but he still held on to Lian Xiaojun tightly. “Brother Xiaojun, thank you for thinking about me, but it would be disloyal for me to surrender to the rebels first, and then kill him.”
It would be unjust for Shangguan to vote for Mrs. Chu. If I am an unfaithful and unjust person, how can Mrs. Chu be willing to use me?"
Lian Xiaojun said, "Brother is wrong. That's not how loyalty is discussed. Haven't you ever heard of laying down your butcher's knife and becoming a Buddha immediately? These are troubled times. As long as your knife doesn't chop the head of the guard, in the eyes of Mrs. Chu
, you are a guard, you are meritorious."
It seems reasonable that Zhang Qing looked hesitant.
"You are killing the guards now and fighting against Chu's wife, maybe you will make great achievements?" Lian Xiaojun asked.
Not to mention meritorious service, it would be nice if he could avoid being killed because he was short of troops. Zhang Qing shook his head.
"But if you kill Ma Jiang now and stop him from causing trouble in Huainan Road, you will be a great service to Mrs. Chu." Lian Xiaojun said.
But Zhang Qing was in a state of confusion. The incident was so sudden that he didn't think about it at all and didn't know what to think.
"I know that this matter is indeed disloyal and unjust to my elder brother. Ma Jiang is the Shangguan whom my elder brother has followed for more than ten years. He is like a relative. Even if his relative becomes a thief, he cannot bear to kill him." Lian Xiaojun said, "
So let me kill Ma Jiang to prevent my brother’s hands from being stained with the blood of disloyalty and injustice.”
After he said that, he threw Zhang Qing away and picked up the knife to open the door.
No, no, Zhang Qing stretched out his hand again, this time instead of grabbing Lian Xiaojun, he grabbed the knife in his hand.
"How can I let Brother Lian stain my hands with blood?" Zhang Qing said, holding a knife and opening the door and striding out.
Lian Xiaojun stood inside the door and did not fight anymore, watching Zhang Qing disappear into the night with the knife.
Lian Xiaoqiang floated over from the wall like a ghost and was stunned. "Is this convincing?"
This doesn’t say anything, right? The first thing I want to think about is whether Lian Xiaojun is Mrs. Chu’s spy, right? Why do you believe it and rush to kill someone with passion and blood after hearing the sentence “For him?”
Lian Xiaojun turned around and Shi Shiran walked towards the case table, "I did it for him."
Lian Xiaoqiang raised her eyebrows and said coldly, "Are you feeling guilty? You let Ma Jiang go. How many people have he hurt by his evil deeds now?"
Lian Xiaojun looked back at him and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? What does Ma Jiang's evil deeds have to do with me? What does the life and death of others have to do with me? You people always take yourselves too seriously."
You people? Lian Xiaoqiang yelled, isn't it? He is indeed not a human, but a monster!
Lian Xiaojun poured tea on Lian Xiaoqiang's face and said, "Wake up."
Lian Xiaoqiang jumped angrily and wiped her sleeves away from him, "No wonder you found Zhang Qing in the first place. It turns out that he is a fool. If this fool can be persuaded by you, you won't be afraid that he will be beaten again if he goes there."
Ma Jiang wants to move?"
"The most important thing about a business is whether the other party is willing to do business. Who is stupid and who is smart? In this world, who is stupider than others, and who is smarter than others? If you treat others as fools," Lian Xiaojun said
, fanned the fire with a small fan, and the mountain spring water made a gurgling sound, "You are the fool."
Lian Xiaoqiang's willingness to do business was a little dull. Not long after, Zhang Qing strode in and threw a bloody head on the ground.
"I have let my people take control of the soldiers and horses he brought," he said, his body covered with blood. "The heads were loaded directly onto the vehicle."
Lian Xiaojun handed him a bowl of tea and said, "I have prepared a cart of rare treasures, including the heads of traitors and rare treasures. I wish my eldest brother the best of luck on his journey to Qingyun."
Zhang Qing took the tea and drank it all in one gulp, then threw the cup to the ground and laughed.
Lian Xiaoqiang sat in the corner, watching Ma Jiang's head spinning on the ground, which made him dizzy and dizzy. He was filled with noise and had only one thought: In this troubled world, no one is just a ghost in human skin.
Under the scorching sun, human heads were hung high on the gate of Yangcheng.
"Look, this is Ma Jiang's head." Zhang Dajiang shouted, "Even if he turns into a ghost, Mrs. Chu can chop off his head and turn him into a ghost among ghosts!"
The soldiers and horses outside the city gate cheered in unison.
"Mrs. Chu is mighty!"
Zhang Dajiang looked at the other side again. In addition to Ma Jiang's head, there were also a bunch of rebel heads and a complete corpse. That was the rebel killed by Xiaoxi.
He had no name or hometown, so Zhang Dajiang let him rest beside the river, and the stream returned to the river.
"Dianzheng Xiaoxi also killed a ghost!"
Zhang Dajiang shouted again amidst the cheers. Although his voice was drowned, many people still heard him and responded.
Li Minglou did not enter the city, but was camped outside the city with his army. At this time, he could faintly hear the cheers carried by the wind.
"You are Zhang Qing." She looked at the man kneeling in the tent with his armor removed and shirtless, "Did you chop off Ma Jiang's head?"
Zhang Qing did not dare to raise his head and responded, hearing the fairy sound falling above his head.
"You said Ma Jiang invited another three thousand troops from Ande Zhong?"
Zhang Qing responded again, "That's what he said, I didn't recover the guilty generals."
Li Minglou nodded and threw the sword that Zhang Qingcheng presented back to the ground. "Go and repel Ande Zhong's rebels."
"I will obey your orders!"
Zhang Qing was so happy that he reached out to grab the big knife and almost crawled out. He didn't dare to breathe until he was out.
When he entered the door, he saw a woman's figure from the corner of his eye. She was covered in a white robe, her head was tied in a hat, and her face was covered with a piece of white gauze. The corners of her skirt spread on the ground shone with gold and silver.
The silk thread seems to be sitting in the clouds.
Next to her stood a tall, muscular man holding a black umbrella, like a Vajra warrior.
What a real immortal.
Zhang Qing was so shocked that he didn't dare to look or say anything more, but a thought flashed through his mind, who is more beautiful, Mrs. Chu or Lian Xiaojun?
