I go to the ancient imperial examinations

Chapter 322 Only One Lives

Who would have thought that Zhu Xiao, the mighty and fearsome Zhenbianhoufu, would have the eloquence to sow dissension, his words were "heart-killing" words to Zhan Feiyu.

The reason why Zhan Feiyu took the risk to come to Aozikou was because he was sure that nothing would happen to him, and the "hypocritical" rescue could be exchanged for Yang Xu's double-handedness, which was a good deal.

Compared with Zhan Feiyu's "cunning and insidious", Yang Xu, who is so grateful beyond words at the moment, is simply a fool, who dared to give money to the number of people after being sold.

For a while, no one spoke, but all kinds of eyes looked at Zhan Feiyu, not to mention the guards of the town's Marquis Mansion, even Lin Jiang and others had suspicions in their eyes.

In the eerie silence, Yang Xu stepped forward, staring at Zhu Xiao angrily, and said word by word: "You don't need to provoke discord, Xiaoyu can come here tonight, it is a life-saving grace for me!"

Paraphrasing Qiu Zongxi's evaluation of Yang Xu back then, although he has an elm brain, he has a sincere heart. He has identified Zhan Feiyu as a friend, and he will not be shaken by a few words of instigation.

Especially the person who said these words is the enemy of the Yang family, Zhu Xiao, the eldest son of the Marquis of Zhenbian!

"Scholars are good at attacking their hearts, that's true." Zhu Xiao sneered, full of contempt and disdain for Yang Xu, "Your mother couldn't share the difficulties with the Yang family back then, and you thought a little girl would never leave your Yang family. ?”

Most of the righteous people are dog-slayers, and most of them are scholars who are guilty.

There are villains and scum among military generals, but when it comes to truth, there are more hypocrites among Korean and Chinese officials.

As soon as Zhu Xiao mentioned Zhang Yiyi, Yang Xu's tense expression was instantly filled with anger. No matter how much he hated him, it was still his biological mother who gave birth to him in Shiyue's pregnancy.
"My lord." Zhan Feiyu grabbed Yang Xu, who was still about to argue, and said with a smile, "No matter how those barbarians bypassed the Weizhou camp and besieged Xiangwu County, the town's Marquis' mansion is bound to be blamed. I wish you all the best!" My lord still has leisure time to argue with us here, what is your lord's intention?"

What is Zhu Xiao's identity, a dignified general, the son of the Marquis of the town, and he is over half a hundred years old, let alone Yang Xu, even Zhan Feiyu is not qualified to let him waste his time.

Just now Zhu Xiao was willing to speak, but it was because Zhan Feiyu was better than the girls of the same age, and she studied under Gu Xueshi, so Zhu Xiao was a little interested in talking.

Otherwise, the domineering and arrogant Zhu Xiao would have left with his people long ago. Of course, before he left, whether he wanted to kill Yang Xu or capture him alive was just an order, so why waste his tongue.

Zhu Xiao's sharp eyes locked on Zhan Feiyu, and with full momentum, he sneered and said: "Little girl, tell me what the old man wants to do?"

Speaking of killing Yang Xu, there is really no need for Zhu Xiao to come in person. Zhu Zhengrong, the eldest son, doesn't even need to show up. He can kill Yang Xu by sending the elite of the Marquis's House in the town.

Of course, as Zhan Feiyu said before, when Yang Xu died, Yang Shoucheng could remarry or adopt the children of the family.

But Zhu Xiao and Yang Shoucheng had a feud against their son, and Yang Shoucheng would definitely not let the Zhenbianhou's mansion go. It can be said that killing Yang Xu was a thankless task.

Under the night, Zhan Feiyu looked at Zhu Xiao, who was not angry but powerful. Compared with Uncle Yang, who was reserved and restrained, Zhu Xiao was more arrogant by nature. Even though his grandson was about the same age as him, his brows were still domineering and sharp. , can such an arrogant Zhu Shizi endure and dormant for several years like Uncle Yang?

There is a kind of person who would rather have broken jade than whole tiles!
Zhan Feiyu glanced at the audience from the corner of his eye, and his expression changed slightly. Is Zhu Shizi planning to leave the Daqing Dynasty?
In this way, it would make sense for the barbarians to speak outside Xiangwu County, and this might be Zhu Xiao's stepping stone to convince the barbarians of his sincerity in defecting.

Zhan Feiyu quietly guarded Yang Xu behind him. If Zhu Xiao planned to defect to the barbarians, he might capture Yang Xu alive and hand them over to the barbarians.He had already left the Daqing Dynasty, so how could he care about the Yang family's revenge.

Zhu Xiao looked at Zhan Feiyu's subtle actions, and the little girl was really clever. Indeed, if he wanted to stay in the Daqing Dynasty, he would naturally not dare to have a death feud with the rebellious Yang family. This is no less than an egg hitting a stone.

But if he left the Daqing Dynasty, then the unscrupulous Zhu Xiao would not only dare to kill Yang Xu, he would also dare to kill Zhan Feiyu. Collaborating with the enemy and treason is a capital crime of copying one's family and exterminating one's family, so what about two more children?It will even make the barbarians trust Zhu Xiao more.

"It's up to people to make things up to God, little girl, it's too late to regret it now!" Zhu Xiao said coldly, and slowly drew out his sword with his right hand.

Almost at the same time, not only the guards of the Hou Mansion behind Zhu Xiao, but also hundreds of Hou Mansion elites lurking in the dark also showed up. The atmosphere was tense and dangerous in an instant. Yu and the others would definitely die on the spot.

The big brother and the teacher will scold themselves to death if they find out!Of course, if you have your life to leave here.

Zhan Feiyu's expression was a little stiff. In the face of absolute power, all calculations are useless, and he still has to rely on his fists to speak.

"Little fish, don't worry about me, just escape as soon as possible!" Yang Xu said in a low voice. Ever since he was flanked by the enemy at the concave hole, Yang Xu never thought of leaving alive.

But the little fish is innocent!
Yang Xu also clenched the sharp sword in his hand, He Sheng and the others are masters among experts, even if there are hundreds of enemies on the side of Zhenbianhou, under the cover of night, He Sheng and the others will definitely be able to break through with Xiaoyu.

In the tense and suffocating atmosphere, Qiu Jinyu's expression on the left also changed slightly, mantis catching cicadas, and oriole behind!He never thought that Zhu Xiao would lead someone to ambush here himself.

If Zhan Feiyu would die, Qiu Jinyu knew very well that he would not survive either, and the status of the third wife of the Qiu family in Qianzhong Road was not enough for Zhu Xiaowang to let him go.

Qiu Jinyu looked around. There were only ten people on his side, and all of them were wounded. There were hundreds of elite people in the Marquis Mansion by the town, and it was impossible to break out and escape.

"Little girl, it's better for me to do good deeds every day, the three of you..." Zhu Xiao pointed at Zhan Feiyu and Yang Xu with the long sword in his right hand, and finally pointed at Qiu Jinyu on the left, "One of you three can leave alive, Who do you choose?"

It’s almost dawn now, and it’s already the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, but before the first day of the new year, Zhan Feiyu is still nine years old, Yang Xu is eight years old, Qiu Jinyu is the oldest, but he is only a 14-year-old boy, all three are considered child.

"The old man counts to ten, pick one person to kill first." Shen Sheng said, Zhu Xiao's attitude was indifferent to the point of bloodthirsty.

On the battlefield, Zhu Xiao had killed even old and weak women and children. Just like tonight, if the barbarians broke through Xiangwu County, they would kill anyone they saw, even unarmed children.

Everyone's eyes fell on Zhan Feiyu again, after all, Zhu Xiao left the choice in her hands.

Zhu Xiao had just counted to five, and Zhan Feiyu said, "Since this is the case, there is a difference between closeness and intimacy, then kill Qiu Jinyu first."

Zhan Feiyu didn't hesitate with this crisp and decisive little voice, and with this incomparably calm attitude, and there was no trace of guilt on his face, as if she wasn't the one who decided Qiu Jinyu's life or death.

Qiu Jinyu didn't speak, but all the guards around him stared at Zhan Feiyu angrily. If their eyes could kill, Zhan Feiyu would definitely be hacked into pieces.

Lin Jiang and the others remained silent for a long time. It was not Yang Xu who was in danger. They were indeed relieved.

But Qiu Jinyu was innocent after all, and it could even be said that he was dragged down by Yang Xu, which made Lin Jiang and the others extremely guilty. Anyway, no one could be as straightforward and calm as Zhan Feiyu.

"When the old man kills Qiu Jinyu, do you choose to let Yang Xu leave alive?" Zhu Xiao originally wanted to make things difficult for Zhan Feiyu, but now he made Zhan Feiyu gain another wave of favor. Yang Xu owed Zhan Feiyu two It's fate.

Zhan Feiyu nodded with a smile, "Mr. Qiu stopped me when I came, but I'm just a scholar who has no power to restrain me. At most I can write some beautiful articles. If I die, there are countless others." student."

"Yang Xu is different. He is a born general. With him, these barbarians and foreigners will not be able to step into the territory of the Daqing Dynasty in the future. The people at the border of my Daqing Dynasty can live and work in peace and contentment for 50 years. I deserve to die!"

Therefore, Qiu Jinyu, who was also a scholar, had to die first. Who made Zhan Feiyu "greed for life and fear death", so it was natural that a dead fellow Taoist would not die a poor Taoist.

"Little fish." Yang Xu stared blankly at Zhan Feiyu who was speaking generously, his nose was sore and the corners of his eyes were red.

A scholar died for his confidant, Yang Xu felt that even if he died at this moment, it was worth it.

Zhu Xiao gave an order, "In this case, the old man will help you, do it!"

Almost at the same time, several figures rushed towards Qiu Jinyu, and Qiu Jinyu and the ten people behind him immediately raised their swords and killed them.

"Let's go, son!" The leading guard shouted loudly, and he didn't care about his hatred for Zhan Feiyu, the chief culprit. At this moment, the most important thing is to fight a bloody path and let the son escape alive.

Zhan Feiyu didn't speak, so He Sheng, He Nuan and others naturally wouldn't make a move.

Yang Xu was about to rush over to help immediately, but He Nuan slapped Yang Xu on the back of the neck fiercely with his unceremonious palm, knocking him unconscious.

This left Lin Jiang and the others at a loss as to what to do for a while. It stands to reason that they should also help, but at this moment Yang Xu fell at Zhan Feiyu's feet, and because of Zhan Feiyu's unreasonable temperament, Lin Jiang and the others didn't dare to act rashly.

The sound of fighting sounded, and Qiu Jinyu, who was hit by a sword, had ferocious eyes and hatred. If he had the chance, he would definitely kill Zhan Feiyu with a sword, so as to eliminate the hatred in his heart.

One after another silhouettes fell into a pool of blood. Qiu Jinyu's ten people couldn't hold back against the fierce and fierce Zhenbian Hou Jingrui, and it was impossible to fight a bloody path for Qiu Jinyu to escape under the defeat.

"Zhan Feiyu, even if I'm a ghost, I won't let you go!" A hoarse roar sounded, and Qiu Jinyu retreated while fighting, his eyes twisted fiercely.

Zhan Feiyu, who was hated, shrugged his shoulders indifferently, and his crisp voice was very clear in the night, "I will become a ghost in a while, we evil ghosts vs evil ghosts, it is not certain who will win."

He Sheng and the others, who were on high alert, twisted their expressions slightly. They were able to say these words at such a critical moment. The lady is really different from ordinary people.

On the other side, Zhu Zhengrong also looked at Zhan Feiyu inexplicably. What did she eat to grow up?Are you not afraid at all?After all, Qiu Jinyu was dead, so it was her turn to be the second.

In the blink of an eye, Qiu Jinyu, who had two swords in his body, fell to the ground, probably out of fear of death, Qiu Jinyu was no longer as personable as before, and roared at Lin Jiang and the others, "You ungrateful beasts!

The faces of Lin Jiang and the others flushed red from being scolded. If it wasn't for saving Master Xu, Qiu Jinyu would not have been in danger, and they would not have been able to watch Qiu Jinyu be killed.

"Don't move!" But without waiting for Lin Jiang and others to make a move, Zhan Feiyu stopped him first, squatted down, and the sharp blade in Zhan Feiyu's hand rested on Yang Xu's neck.

Lin Jiang and the others tensed up, fearing that Zhan Feiyu's hand would shake, and Yang Xu's life would be ruined in her hands.

"Stand aside honestly, no one is allowed to do anything, otherwise don't blame me for being cruel." Zhan Feiyu said slowly.

Dried blood still remained on the dagger in Zhan Feiyu's hand. Even if she didn't have any murderous aura around her, don't say that Lin Jiang and others didn't dare, even Zhu Xiao and Zhu Zhengrong who were watching couldn't guess Zhan Feiyu's next move. action.

If Lin Jiang and the others went over to help, Zhan Feiyu would be upset and really pissed off Yang Xu, and it would be too late for Lin Jiang and the others to regret it.

Especially when Zhan Feiyu squatted down, he was just a small ball. Under the night, in the faint light of the torch, his steamed bun face looked white and tender, with a childish look.

Who can guarantee that she will not kill Yang Xu? After all, Zhu Xiao just said that only one person can leave alive. Zhan Feiyu is still a child, and it is normal to have a thought for a while.

Qiu Jinyu, who was about to burst into tears, was thrown away from the long sword in his hand. Looking at the long sword that was stabbing towards him, Qiu Jinyu wanted to hide, but unfortunately, he seemed to be nailed to the ground, but he had no strength at all, so he could only watch helplessly. The long sword came across the sky, and finally stabbed himself in the chest.

Puff!The sound of sword piercing through flesh and blood sounded, and gurgling blood flowed from his chest. Qiu Jinyu fell to the ground, his chest heaving up and down, unable to move, his eyes stared at Zhan Feiyu who was not far away with hatred, and his eyes were fierce. Vicious.

Lin Jiang and the others opened their mouths, but seeing the dagger in Zhan Feiyu's hand was still resting on Yang Xu's neck, the others who were wary of rats did not dare to move, they could only turn their heads away, unable to bear to see Qiu Jinyu's death.

"Zhan Feiyu..." With the last bit of strength, Qiu Jinyu called out Zhan Feiyu's name, and scratched weakly in the snow with both hands. After losing too much blood, he finally died with unsatisfactory eyes. Unwilling.

Zhu Xiao and the others had long been used to seeing life and death. At this moment, they didn't care about Qiu Jinyu who was killed. They just looked at Zhan Feiyu who was also indifferent. Even Zhu Xiao felt that the little girl in front of him had a vicious heart.

A life was ruined in her hands, and Zhan Feiyu was so calm, without any guilt.
