Xiao Ji
Chapter 16 What If I Don't Go
Compared with Nanyou, which has a humid climate, lush vegetation, steep mountains and valleys to the west, and beautiful gardens and hills to the east, Beimu is more majestic and heroic, with woodland snow fields, yellow sand outside the Great Wall, and dry walls in winter...
Ever since Lou Tingfeng chose to join Nanyou, the result was not going well again and again. Yulou, who was wearing a Tangli vest, had thought about diverting to Beimu to develop, but he only knew Beimu, and only had the military achievements of the two countries. The several times of friction on the Internet, and then the completely confusing entanglement between Jiang Li and Hei Cheng, the rhythm is almost blind.
Tang Li said: "Is there any relationship between Xiaojiangzhou and Beimu? What if I don't go?"
Hong Yan's tall and straight back seemed to be a little stiff, and he slowly said: "There is indeed something related, if you don't go...I won't force you."
Tang Li nodded and said: "I understand what you mean, thank you Brother Yan, but I still..." Before she finished speaking, she looked up and saw a carriage not far away, the driver was Uncle Hong, and the carriage compartment Behind the gray curtains, Aunt Hong was hugging the little girl and waving happily to them. The little girl called out childishly, "Sister—"
Hong Yan said indifferently: "I told my parents that I need to buy something today, and I asked them to rent a carriage in the town, and they only need to take my sister and the panda dumpling out."
Tang Li looked up at him in astonishment, and Hong Yan's usually gentle face turned unpredictable. He said, "I have to leave tonight, or it will be too late." From the moment the small courtyard where they lived was being targeted, He knew it was time to make up his mind to leave.
Tang Li realized that the matter was not as simple as what Hong Yan said, so she leaned on her horse and jumped onto the stone slab by the roadside in a thrilling manner, saying with disapproval on her face, "You have thought about it a long time ago. If this is the case, you still need to ask Would I like it? If I don't mention this topic today, is there a way for you to take me to Beimu? This gift is too overbearing." She had a few guesses about Hong Yan's identity in her mind, and then He affirmed: "You are from Beimu, a spy of Beimu."
It is not uncommon for the two countries to send spies to each other, just like before Lou Tingfeng was captured in Chang'an, couldn't he easily enter and leave the capital of Chang'an?But this spy is rooted in the secret gate of Nanyou, and it may last for more than ten years. If Hong Yan is really an aborigine, it is really terrible, and even the Hong family is kept in the dark... Or the couple themselves are allies.
Hong Yan was caught off guard by Tang Li's withdrawal from the horse, so he stopped the horse and remained silent for a moment, "But I only want to serve the young master from the beginning to the end. If it is my fault that the young master is criticized in Nanyou, then I would rather you dislike me and take you away."
The disciple in the secret door is a spy, so she must be to blame as the master of the secret door.
But having said that...
"You said you wouldn't force me." Tang Li looked at him blankly, but found that Hong Yan's expression was calm, as if she was not joking when she said that she was going to take her away, she suddenly became angry: "Even if I don't leave, look For the sake of getting along these days, I will not go to the government to report on you, so you can rest assured!"
"It's not for this reason, young master..."
At the moment when the two faced each other, Uncle Hong keenly sensed that something was wrong, and quickly ran to Hong Yan's horse, looked at Tang Li's face, turned around and scolded: "You bastard, what are you doing to make the young master angry?" gone?"
Hong Yan didn't say a word, she lowered her slender and thick eyelashes, her grievance was beyond words.
Tang Li: "..."
Tang Li was a little confused. On the one hand, she admitted the great temptation that Xiao Jiangzhou had brought her, but on the other hand, she was angry at Hong Yan's concealment. Shouldn't such out-of-the-way things like betrayal be discussed in the long term?Oh... Hong Yan has indeed been planning for quite a long time...
When Tang Li was weighing the pros and cons, Hong Yan had already led Uncle Hong back to the carriage in a few words, explaining that they needed to move to Xiaojiangzhou temporarily for shelter, and didn't say much about the rest, probably because they were afraid that the couple would not be able to accept that their son was going to invest in him for a while. The facts of the enemy country caused trouble on the road.
After Hong Yan calmed her down, she looked back at Tang Li. Tang Li didn't leave, but was still sitting on the stone slab. A little smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He walked up to Tang Li, knelt down and said, "Young master, we Let's go to Xiaojiangzhou."
Tang Li looked at him expressionlessly.
Hong Yan took out an emerald green finger wrench from her bosom, put it on her thumb very naturally, and said indifferently: "There is a nest of water bandits entrenched on Xiaojiangzhou, I convinced them earlier that this finger wrench is a token , you take it, it will be more convenient to do things on the island in the future."
Tang Li looked at the valuable wrench and said, "With it, the water bandits will listen to me?"
Hong Yan said honestly: "It depends on the young master's ability. After all, I lure him for profit, but my prestige is not enough."
Tang Li tilted her head. If Hong Yan had given an affirmative answer just now, she would have pointed the finger at her right away, because things that are too easy won’t give people any sense of accomplishment, so there is still time to play this game. What's the meaning?She never concealed her ambition, but she didn't want to rely on Hong Yan's help in everything, otherwise the control of the secret door would be uncontrollable, not to mention that if she really wanted to develop in Beimu, Xiaojiangzhou must be firmly grasped.
Hong Yan's sales were right, and Tang Li got on the horse consciously. After all, morality is not worth a dime a catty. Even if her position changes in the future, she can often go back to Nanyou to visit. As for Nanyou's people... ... Then it's too late for whoever and whoever hides!
Fortunately, she didn't leave any important things in the village, but carried a storage bag with her. Thinking of this, Tang Li wished she could walk faster.
Hong Yan probably was terrified this time that Tang Li would change her mind midway, so she sat directly behind her, wrapped her arms around her, and grabbed the reins, trapping her within an inch.
Tang Li stared at the front silently, pretending not to understand anything. In fact, she had already sensed Hong Yan's ambiguous attitude towards her, but since she was a man's soul under her skin, she just wanted to say righteously: "I refuse!"
The bay red horse was running parallel to the carriage, and when they turned off from the Lingjiang official road into the forest path, they suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes behind them, and Hong Yan immediately said, "Let's go faster, faster!"
Uncle Hong saw that his face changed slightly, and knew that there was something wrong with the person coming from behind, so he quickly swung his whip heavily, and the carriage drove to the destination first, while Hong Yan took a step slower, holding the rein tightly with one hand to protect half of Tang Li's body, while touching To the knife hanging at her waist.
Tang Li asked suspiciously, "Who's here?" Half of Lingjiang River is Lin Yuejian's territory, but the area near Xiaojiangzhou is chaotic, so it's not surprising that there are bull-headed horse-faced people.
Hong Yan tensed up: "I don't know, but this road is very dangerous. We have already stepped out of the official path. If someone is really eyeing me, they will only do it here."
Just as he was speaking, he caught up with more than a dozen masked and black-clothed assassins, all of whom had knives around their waists. As soon as the leader waved his hand, they rushed forward ferociously.
Hong Yan let go of the reins, turned over on the horse's back, drew a knife and jumped to kill the front assassin, then snatched his horse, and said to Tang Li: "Young master, go first!"
Tang Li touched her waist, and Hong Yan pulled the knife away. Seeing that Hong Yan was quite comfortable, she didn't delay, and went after the Hong family's carriage first, "Be careful yourself."
There were other weapons in Tang Li's package, but the level was too low to use them well. When she caught up with the carriage, Aunt Hong poked her head out of the carriage and asked, "Young Master, who is chasing you?"
Tang Li shook her head, but she was somewhat sure that these masked assassins were products of the palace, and they had strict discipline in their actions, as if they were all drawn out of the same mold.
After a while, the sound of horseshoes came from behind again. Tang Li turned her head happily, but what she saw were three assassins carrying knives.
Tang Li asked Uncle Hong to just go first, and stepped on the horse's back to fight with one of the assassins. Because she had no weapon in her hand, she swayed for a while and imitated Hong Yan and kicked the horse's head, grab the knife first, and then kill .
After killing the three people in this way, the carriage finally arrived at the chain bridge. This chain bridge was about tens of meters long but only a foot wide. If you can't get through, you can only give up.
Tang Li didn't see Hong Yan, fearing that something might happen, she said anxiously: "I'll go see Brother Yan, you guys go first!"
Aunt Hong hugged the little girl, and Uncle Hong put the panda cub in a basket, his face was also very panic, Aunt Hong said: "Young master, I will stay too!"
"No!" Tang Li disagreed. Hong Yan would make such a plan today, just to protect the whole family and prevent further troubles. She persuaded the Hong family to leave first. There seemed to be a few more people in the carriage. The box was what Hong Yan told them to bring.
But Mrs. Hong refused to agree with her life and death, and finally Tang Li had no choice but to resort to her trump card: "I am the young master, and I have the final say."
The Hong family's faces were ashen, so they had to take the little girl and the box across the bridge, and then took Tang Li's bay red horse.
When Tang Li was standing on the bridge looking around, she saw the familiar figure in the distance, but there were many assassins behind Hong Yan, and she couldn't shake her long tail.
Seeing her turn around and running back, Hong Yan immediately shouted loudly: "Go—"
Tang Li held the knife still and wanted to fight, but was pushed hard by Hong Yan who finally arrived and fell off the horse!
Tang Li was unsteady and stepped on the iron chain bridge. The iron chain bridge was shaking. Only then did she see the blood on Hong Yan's body and the deep knife marks on his back. Tang Li has never seen such a gentle and clean person, such a gentle and clean person.
After Hong Yan stood firm, she turned around and swung the knife at the attacking assassin. Tang Li wanted to help him, but was pushed onto the broken bridge by Hong Yan again. Immediately afterwards, a scene that Tang Li did not expect happened.
Ever since Lou Tingfeng chose to join Nanyou, the result was not going well again and again. Yulou, who was wearing a Tangli vest, had thought about diverting to Beimu to develop, but he only knew Beimu, and only had the military achievements of the two countries.
