Yang Yu stepped forward and grabbed him by the lapel of his clothes, and said fiercely: "How do you know that the investigation outside is strict? You probably don't know what happened."
The middle-aged man was stunned, and Yang Yu knocked him over with a fierce punch, "Did that bitch named Wang come?"
The middle-aged man repeatedly kowtowed and begged for mercy, crying bitterly, "She arrested all my family members, I dare not disobey!"
Yang Yu only felt a sharp pain in his back. The pain made him tremble all over and was unbearable. He drew his sword and pointed it at the man and asked: "Did you...put poison in the tea?"
"I didn't know it was poison. Supervisor Wang said she had the antidote and asked the hall master to find her."
It's no wonder that Yang Yu didn't smell anything bad. In the Tang Dynasty, only the rich drank sencha, while ordinary people boiled the tea with ginger, green onion salt, and finally ate the tea leaves together.
Yang Yu knew that she was careless and underestimated Wang Jianying's methods. I am afraid that except for Sun Xiaozhen, all her confidants were attracted by her.
Do I really want to beg her like a dog?
There was another sharp pain in his back, like a hook pulling at his spine. Of course Yang Yu knew what kind of poison it was. It was Qianjisan, one of the three major poisons of Zangjiang Pavilion. This medicine would quickly penetrate into the body.
His own spine slowly bent his spine, and he died in extreme pain.
What's even more terrible is that this kind of Qianji Powder does not have a complete antidote at all. It only has blue pills that suppress the toxicity. It must be taken on time to prevent the toxicity from occurring.
In other words, he was completely controlled by Wang Jianying.
Will she give herself the blue pill? Unless she lets her catch A-Xuan.
Thinking of A Xuan, Yang Yu thought of his own child. At this moment, he made a decision resolutely.
He slowly raised his sword, and the middle-aged man was so frightened that he kowtowed, "Master, spare your life!"
"I will never spare those who harm me!"
Yang Yu killed the middle-aged man with one sword, endured the pain in his back, turned around and rushed out of the yard.
........
Wang Jianying looked at Yang Yu who was kneeling on the ground and couldn't help laughing proudly, "You finally came to beg me? I thought you would take that bitch away and fly away. In the end, your own life is more important, right?"
"
Yang Yu lowered his head and said nothing. Wang Jianying looked at Yang Yu's sword again. There was a number on the hilt, and it was number 2. She felt jealous in her heart. Her number was number 39. The aunt was too partial.
.
"I won't talk nonsense to you. I can give you the antidote, but you must hand over that woman. Since she has your child, she must be supervised by the Cangjian Pavilion. Then you will serve the Cangjian Pavilion honestly.
Everyone else does things the same way, without exception."
How could Yang Yu believe her lies? She had given herself a clue and had no intention of sparing her own life. She just wanted to trick A Xuan and Xiao Zhen into coming back and silence them.
At this time, Yang Yu's back was in unbearable pain, and sweat rolled down his forehead. He gritted his teeth and said, "They are on the Yellow River now. Even if you find them, I have already died of poison, so what's the point?"
"You are still the master of Ziqing Hall, and you don't even know the most famous Qianji Powder in Cangjian Pavilion? From now on, I will give you a blue pill every ten days to suppress the toxicity. When will that woman be caught?
I will give you blue pills whenever I want, but I can only wait for you for ten days at most. If you still can’t find them after ten days, don’t blame me for cutting off your kindness.”
"Beginning of friendship!"
Yang Yu laughed miserably, "When did you have any kindness to me?"
He jumped forward suddenly, as fast as a tiger, and hugged Wang Jianying's legs. Wang Jianying was wary of him shooting hidden weapons, but he didn't expect that he would use such a rogue move. She took off a step late and was hugged by him.
Hold your left leg.
Wang Jianying was shocked and turned away. She tried her best to shake him off, but failed. Yang Yu pulled out the poisonous crossbow arrow from her leggings and stabbed Wang Jianying's leg hard. Wang Jianying screamed in pain. She pulled out her sword and stabbed him hard.
Got into Yang Yu's back.
The people around him rushed forward and dragged Yang Yu away with all their hands and feet. The sword pierced the back of his heart and Yang Yu died.
Everyone looked at Wang Jianying's calf in horror, only to see a blue crossbow arrow stuck in her leg. This was a spare crossbow arrow used to assassinate Li Zhengji. Yang Yu did not use it, but stabbed Wang Jianying with it.
Wang Jianying was so frightened that she turned around and ran towards the room. There was antidote to the poison in the room, but she only ran a few steps before she fell to the ground. Her body twitched a few times and stopped moving. Gradually, she
His whole face turned black.
Yang Yu exchanged his life for hers, leaving a way for his future children to survive.
At that time, he once told Guo Song that since he chose the path of assassin, he had no hope of living beyond the age of forty. He came down from the mountain at the age of twenty-three and struggled for sixteen years. He is now thirty-nine years old, and he did not expect to be killed by him.
Words become prophecies.
.......
Li Zhengji died suddenly, and Li Na took over Qizhou's 50,000-strong army and 20,000-strong local army, and announced that he would officially succeed Ziqing Jiedushi. Li Na, who was leading an army to attack Xuzhou, got the news and was furious. He led 30,000 troops.
He returned to Qizhou and announced that Li Na was the murderer of his father, and that he was the successor to the orthodoxy of Ziqing Jiedushi.
The two brothers fought for the inheritance of the feudal town, and a war broke out.
At the same time, wars were also breaking out in Hebei and Jianghuai. Zhu Tao, the governor of Youzhou, had already peeked into Li Baochen's territory. After Li Baochen's death, his son Li Weiyue lacked prestige and was ruthless and unjust, which generally made his generals dissatisfied. Li Weiyue could not win
When he was canonized by the imperial court, he proclaimed himself King of Zhao. At this time, Zhu Tao got the imperial court's order to attack him, and he fulfilled his ambition. He immediately sent 50,000 troops to attack Shenzhou and Zhaozhou.
In southern Hebei, Ma Sui, the military governor of Hedong, and Li Baozhen, the military governor of Zhaoyi Army, also received the imperial decree and each sent 30,000 troops to jointly attack Tian Yue, the military governor of Weibo, who also announced rebellion.
Jianghuai and Huaixi Jiedushi Li Xilie led an army of 30,000 to defeat Liang Chongyi's army in Jiangxia and led his army into Jingzhou. Liang Chongyi was defeated in three battles and had to retreat to Xiangyang. At the same time, he sent people to Chang'an to surrender to the imperial court.
Although Guo Song was in Ganzhou, he was very concerned about the situation of the Hebei War. At this time, he deeply felt that his intelligence was insufficient and he should establish an intelligence point in the capital, otherwise the information he got from the officials would have expired long ago.
Fortunately, there was constant exchange of news between Ganzhou historians and the capital, and they specially provided Guo Song with the latest news on the war situation.
In the official office of Jiedu Mansion, Guo Song told Chief Shi Cui Wenjing: "Among all the vassal towns, Liang Chongyi, the envoy of Jiedu in Shannan East Road, is the best to destroy. Send a general to lead an army of 50,000 from Shangluo southward, which can reach Nanyang directly.
Attacking Xiangyang is easy, but the imperial court asked Li Xilie to destroy Liang Chongyi, which is putting the cart before the horse. Could it be that after Li Xilie destroyed Liang Chongyi, he would retreat from Xiangyang?"
Seeing Guo Song's annoyed look, Cui Wenjing smiled slightly and said: "The imperial court did not expect this. It has always been the imperial court's strategy to use the conflicts between the feudal towns to kill each other. This can also prevent the feudal towns from colluding with each other. Li Xilie
His ambitions are not as great as those of his uncle Li Zhongchen. It is estimated that the imperial court will eventually grant him the title of Commander-in-Chief and allow him to withdraw to Huaixi."
"Then let Zhu Tao attack Li Weiyue, will he withdraw to Youzhou?"
"this...."
This question really hits the nail on the head. Promotion of official positions and promotions may be useful for rising people like Li Xilie, but it may not be of much significance to Zhu Tao.
Cui Wenjing said after a while: "Actually, let's put it this way! The fundamental reason is that the imperial court lacks financial resources and cannot support large-scale use of troops."
Guo Song shook his head, "Everything is excused by lack of financial resources. The imperial court lacks financial resources, so does the feudal town have sufficient financial resources? There is clearly a problem with the strategy. If we continue to fight like this, the feudal town will only become stronger and stronger."
Next to him, Pan Liao smiled and said: "Shijun, we just need to take care of ourselves. Since Shatuo has agreed to Shijun's plan and allocated fifty miles of Guazhou near the Snow Mountain to Suzhou, I will build a supply depot and a fort as soon as possible.
, direct the caravan to Shazhou via the new road."
Guo Song nodded, "Shazhou is moving very quickly. When the construction of the Jinshan Pass Guard City and the supply station on the edge of the desert has begun, we really need to step up our efforts. Pan Changshi, I will hand over this matter."
I'll leave it to you to take the lead. If you need any funds, I will allocate them as soon as possible."
"I humbly obey orders!"
.........
During this period, the situation in the Hexi Corridor was very calm. The war was temporarily suspended. Government affairs were mainly handled by Chief Shi Cui Wenjing and governors of various states, while tedious military affairs were handled by aide Zhang Qianyi. Guo Song was a little idle for a while.
But some rumors disturbed him, and even though he had nothing to do, he could not feel at peace.
When Guo Song returned to his mansion, he ordered: "Ask Xiaoyu Niang to come see me!"
He sat down in the inner hall, and Xiao Niangyu walked in. Xiaoyu Niang should be a big girl, but her appearance was almost unchanged from a few years ago. It was like time stopped for her, and she was still the same.
She herself was troubled by the image of a fourteen-year-old or fifteen-year-old young lady, but as time passed, she no longer cared.
Although her appearance has not changed, her martial arts have improved rapidly. Her swordsmanship is fierce and her qinggong is superb. Even Wang Yue, the internal affairs commander who was born in Kongtong Mountain, is no match for her.
"Master, are you looking for me?" asked the little fish girl.
"I want to ask you, do you still have contact with Hidden Sword Pavilion?"
Xiaoyu Niang was startled and waved her hands quickly, "Sir, I have nothing to do with Zangjian Pavilion anymore. I don't know if Zangjian Pavilion sent someone to monitor you, but it's definitely not me."
