Zhong Jian's eyes suddenly lit up and he said, "Can General Liu redeem himself for Ying Xuan?"
Liu Xiu came to do this, and there was no need to redeem himself. He could bring Ying Xuan out with just one sentence, and absolve Ying Xuan of all charges. He nodded and asked with a smile: "Mr. Zhong
What do you think?"
If Zhong Jian's mentality had already begun to waver when he saw those whistle-blowing letters, now he has completely accepted Liu Xiu's conditions.
He nodded and said with a trembling voice: "As long as General Liu can help Ying Xuan redeem his life, I...my Zhong family can let Liu Jin forget the past!"
When Liu Xiu heard this, the expression on his face did not change much, because this had been expected by him.
Compared with Zhong Yue's flesh and blood, Liu Jin's life and death seemed insignificant. He said: "I am very happy that Mr. Zhong can make such a decision, but I know that Mr. Zhong is still very uncomfortable in his heart."
Just as Zhong Jian was about to speak, Liu Xiu waved to him, and then raised his head to Jiu'er. Jiu'er understood, turned and walked out. Not long after, Jiu'er came back, and Liu Jin was brought in at the same time.
At this time, Liu Jin was tied up and his upper body clothes were stripped off. After being taken into the Zhong Mansion, he looked at everything around him with a look of horror on his face.
When they saw Liu Jin, Zhong Jian, Zhong Ji, and Zhong Gui, their eyes widened and their fists were clenched tightly. They all wanted to rush up and give him two swords.
Jiu'er pushed Liu Jin into the lobby and kicked him hard on the knee. Plop! Liu Jin couldn't help but kneel on the ground.
Liu Xiu said to Zhong Jian: "If Mr. Zhong wants to be angry, just do it. I only have one condition, just leave him a mouth (sensitive) and live!"
As he spoke, he raised his fingers to the side, and a soldier stepped forward and put a whip in Liu Xiu's hand.
Liu Xiu directly handed the whip to Zhong Jian, who was still looking blank and didn't understand what was going on. Then he waved to Jiu'er and several soldiers and walked out.
Walking into the front courtyard, he suddenly remembered something. He turned around and looked at Zhong Jian, who was still in a daze. Liu Xiu said cheerfully: "Mr. Zhong, I still said the same thing. As long as he keeps breathing, it doesn't matter whether he is injured or disabled."
, I don’t even care.” Then, he emphasized: “I’m not kidding!”
Liu Xiu took Jiu'er and several soldiers out of the Zhong Mansion. Once outside, he specifically asked the servants of the Zhong Mansion to close the door, out of sight and out of mind.
Soon, the sound of a whip was heard in the Zhong Mansion, followed closely by Liu Jin's heart-rending screams.
Liu Xiu adjusted her clothes and got into the carriage with Jiu'er.
Even outside the mansion, already sitting in the carriage, one could still hear the sound of whips and screams coming from the Zhong Mansion. Jiuer said with concern: "Master, the Zhong family and his son will not really beat Liu Jin to death."
Alright?"
Liu Xiu shook his head and said indifferently: "No, they don't dare."
Liu Jin died, Ying Xuan could not survive, and the child in her belly could not survive. In addition, the entire Zhong family would also be in trouble. Zhong Jian would not be able to distinguish the stakes.
Liu Xiu was not willing to let Liu Jin go like this, and was even more angry. He might as well throw him to the Zhong family and his son, which would not only make them angry, but also teach Liu Jin a profound lesson.
The sound of whips and screams in the Zhong Mansion continued intermittently for nearly half an hour. Then, the door of the palace opened, and Liu Jin was carried out by four servants using a door panel.
Liu Jin was in a miserable state at this time. His face, body, and limbs were all covered with whip marks, and the streaks of blood were shocking. He was lying on the door panel, already unconscious, and blood dripped down along the cracks in the door panel.
flow.
Jiuer got off the carriage, stepped forward quickly, and felt Liu Jin's carotid artery. Fortunately, although it was weak, at least there was a pulse. She turned back and nodded to Liu Xiu, indicating that Liu Jin was indeed still alive.
Zhong Jian, Zhong Ji, Zhong Gui and his son followed closely out of the Zhong Mansion and came to Liu Xiu. The three of them saluted together and bowed to the ground. Zhong Jian said with emotion: "General Liu is so kind and virtuous to the common people."
It’s unforgettable. As long as General Liu can use the Zhong family in the future, just open his mouth and the common people will be furious and will die without mercy!"
Liu Xiu returned the gift and said: "Mr. Zhong is too polite. I will send someone to send Miss Yingxuan to your residence in a moment!"
Hearing this, Zhong Jian, Zhong Ji, and Zhong Gui once again bowed deeply and expressed their gratitude to Liu Xiu.
After bidding farewell to Zhong Jian and his son, Liu Xiu asked Jiu'er to go to the county government office, take out Ying Xuan, and send her to the Zhong Mansion. He himself put on the dying Liu Jin and went to Liu Yong's mansion in Xinye.
When Liu Yong arrived at Liu Yong's house, when he saw Liu Jin covered in blood, like a bloody gourd, he couldn't help but wailed: "Jin'er——"
He threw himself on Liu Jin, bursting into tears, and burst into tears. Liu Xiu didn't say anything, just stood aside and watched until Liu Yong's crying gradually subsided, and he said slowly: "Uncle Clan,
Liu Jin is not dead yet, and the injuries on his body were only caused by whips, but if he is not treated in time and he continues to bleed like this, he will die!"
Liu Yong's crying stopped suddenly. Looking at Liu Xiu, he suddenly came back to his senses and screamed: "Come here! Come quickly! Call for a doctor. Send the Chinese medicine doctor in the city!"
Although Liu Jin's injuries are scary, in fact, the Zhong family's actions were very measured and they did not really kill him. Liu Jin's injuries were just superficial injuries.
However, seeing that several whips were struck on his face, and the wounds were not shallow, it is estimated that his appearance will not be preserved, and he will have several scars on his face in the future.
Liu Mansion's servants hurriedly carried Liu Jin to the inner house. Liu Xiu said to Liu Yong: "Uncle Clan, I have done what I promised you. Uncle Clan, don't forget your promise to me. From now on, Liu Jin
No longer a member of the Zhu Tiandu Department!" Such a black sheep, if he stays in the Zhu Tiandu Department, he is also a smelly fish and a pot of soup.
Liu Yong didn't know what method Liu Xiu used to save Liu Jin's life. Although his son was beaten badly, he didn't die after all. Liu Xiu did keep his word. Liu Yong took a deep breath, knelt down,
He kowtowed and said, "I will never thank you for your kindness! Ah Xiu, my clan uncles have often offended me in the past. From now on, my clan uncles will definitely treat A Xiu as my leader!"
Liu Xiu smiled, stretched out his hand to help Liu Yong up, and said: "It's too late and I can't stay long. Uncle Clan, please go see Liu Jin quickly and say goodbye!"
"Axiu, I'll see you off!" Liu Yong sent Liu Xiu out of the house. When he saw him leaving in a carriage, Liu Yong hurried back to the house and went to the inner house.
Liu Xiu took the carriage back to his home. On the way, he yawned tiredly and lay down in the carriage. He had not had much rest in the past few days, and now that he had finally dealt with these trivial matters, he felt quite tired.
tired.
The carriage was moving forward. Suddenly, a series of snapping sounds were heard, and several crossbow arrows shot directly through the right side wall of the carriage, and then were deeply nailed to the left side wall.
Fortunately, Liu Xiu was lying in the carriage. If he had been sitting in the carriage, several of the crossbow arrows would have been nailed to his body. Liu Xiu's half-opened eyes immediately widened. At the same time, he also
The Chixiao Sword under his ribs was drawn out.
"Assassin! There is an assassin on the roof!" More than a dozen soldiers guarding the carriage shouted in unison.
Bang, bang, bang! From the roof on the right side of the street, another dozen crossbow arrows flew down. Several soldiers blocking the side of the carriage were hit by several arrows and fell to the ground one after another.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh! Several black shadows jumped down from the roof and headed straight for the carriage. Several soldiers raised their spears and stepped forward to stop them. A man in black held a three-foot green sword and swung his sword.
, deflecting the two spears coming towards him.
He stepped forward, and the man flashed through the gap between the two soldiers. Almost at the same time, two fountains of blood rose behind him. The heads of the two soldiers fell off, but the headless corpses were still standing.
on the ground.
The man in black took three steps and two steps together, came to the carriage, lifted up the curtain of the window with the Qingfeng sword in his hand, and looked inside.
The moment he looked into the car, the Chixiao Sword came out of the car window and hit his face.
The man in black was frightened, and subconsciously turned his head to the side. The sharp edge of the Red Sky Sword slashed across his cheek. Not only did it pick off the scarf on his face, it also cut a long slit on his left cheek.
A long bloody mouth.
Huh! Liu Xiu jumped out from the carriage. As soon as his feet landed, bang bang bang, several crossbow arrows flew down from the roof at the same time. Liu Xiu waved his sword to block, ding ding ding, and several crossbow arrows were bounced.
open.
The other men in black who jumped down rushed towards Liu Xiu. They were all holding Qingfeng swords, wearing black tight-fitting night clothes, and their faces were covered with scarves.
Two of them were the fastest, one on the left and one on the right. They came to Liu Xiu first, one of them drew his sword to his neck, and the other drew his sword to his weak spot.
Liu Xiu waved his sword to block, and with two crisp sounds, he blocked the two green-edged swords. Then, another man in black rushed towards him and kicked him in the air.
Liu Xiu raised his left arm and blocked it in front of him.
Bang!
The opponent's kick hit his arm, and Liu Xiu took three big steps back due to the force.
The remaining soldiers saw that the other side was approaching menacingly, and that all of them were highly skilled and not just ordinary people. Several of them attacked the other side, and one of them separated and ran to report the news.
Several soldiers who rushed towards the man in black looked like paper in front of them. They fell to the ground as soon as they met. Without exception, they were all hit in vital points and died on the spot.
The soldier who ran away could not run too far. He was hit by two crossbow arrows. One arrow hit the back of the neck and the other hit the back of the heart. He rolled to the ground and never got up again.
The men in black scattered around Liu Xiu and launched a fierce siege.
I saw these men in black jumping up and down, moving left and right, and several green-edged swords intertwined into a dazzling sword curtain around Liu Xiu.
Their moves were too fast. Standing outside the battlefield, you couldn't see clearly how they moved. You could only hear the continuous clanking sound of iron weapons, and you could see the flashing swords in the sword curtain.
Mars child.
The battle between the two sides lasted less than two minutes when a man in black suddenly flew backwards. Taking advantage of a brief gap in the encirclement, Liu Xiu also jumped out of the sword curtain.
However, when I looked at his clothes now, I saw that there were more than ten holes in them.
Before Liu Xiu had time to stand firm, several crossbow arrows flew down from the roof again. The arrows flashed with an eye-catching blue light, and they were obviously tempered with huge poison.
