Shu Blossoms

Chapter 36 Escape
Zheng Wei's expression didn't move, and he looked at the two of them without saying a word.

Tuobayu knew that they had something to ask for, so he could only bow his head first.

"I want to come to the Zheng family because she knows the grievance between Xiahou and your grandfather's family. If Xiahou arrives in Jiankang, it will be more fortunate." Tuobayu rarely speaks so hesitantly, "I hope you can see this way, we have not For your sake, help him once."

Zheng Wei wanted to laugh a little when he heard the words, but also felt that Xia Houqing was mad at the end, so he held back and twitched the corners of his mouth.

"Speaking of love, you saved my life in the small town hostel is a bit of love, but if you look closely, it's also because you invaded Muling Pass and tied me to the people of Dazhou. You stand up, what relationship can we have between us?"

Zheng Wei's expression was a little indifferent.

Tuoba Yu was slightly stagnant when he heard the words, and after thinking about it, he really had no position to ask Zheng Wei.

"His Royal Highness, you have already said that you don't need to beg her for me." Xiahouqing said with a livid face and a cold tone, "There are so many cruel and bloodthirsty people from the Yue clan, but they are only a mere life, so how can she be taken seriously."

"You don't have to provoke me," Zheng Wei interrupted him, "I dare not say that what my grandfather did was right. Of course there is something wrong, as a junior, I have no right to comment on the deceased ancestors. But blood feud is blood feud, and it has nothing to do with it. Right or wrong, it can only be paid in blood!"

"But there is a blood feud from one generation to another, when will it be resolved? How much life and blood will it take to quell the hatred in your Xiahou family's heart?" Zheng Wei looked directly into Xiahouqing's eyes and asked step by step, "How dare you guarantee all sacrifices on the road of revenge? Do they all deserve what they deserve? Will there be more innocent people, and will more people embark on this road of revenge like you?"

These are incomprehensible, Xia Houqing turned to avoid Zheng Wei's pressing questions.

"So, it's not that I can't, but I don't dare!"

Zheng Wei's tone was a little softer, "I also have family members who I want to give my life to protect, and my family members have never been stained with the blood of the Xiahou family, and there are many innocent people, but they are likely to become the souls of your revenge."

"How dare I."

Zheng Weifu looked directly at Xia Houqing again, and Tuoba Yu also looked at him.

Zheng Wei's meaning is very clear, she doesn't care about Xia Houqing's life or death, and naturally she doesn't mind letting Xia Houqing live.

But she cares about the life and death of her family.

Xia Houqing was not at peace at this time. He thought of his dead mother and younger sister, as well as those familiar faces. He had thought countless times that he would use the blood of everyone in the Yue clan to pay homage to the deceased.

But only when he is alive can he have the chance to kill the aloof emperor, otherwise, no matter how many people die, it will be difficult for him to solve the blood feud of the Xiahou family.

After struggling for a long time, Xiahouqing gritted his teeth and said, "Xiahouqing swears that he will never kill innocent people who are not stained with the blood of Xiahou's family, but the Great Zhou Emperor and the executioners of those years must die!"

"If someone innocent of mine falls into the hands of your Xiahou family in the future, you should protect one or two. As for the rest, we will naturally see the truth on the battlefield. If the people of Dazhou are not as skilled as others and can't defend this country, I will not wait. What can be said?" Zheng Wei took the opportunity to make a request.

Since it is a transaction, it is natural to bargain!

Especially when it's in your favor.

Xia Houqing was angry when he heard the words, but since he had already compromised before, the latter was not important, so he could only nod his head in the end.

But Zheng Wei felt that verbal transactions were unreliable after all, so it was better to set up written evidence.

In case Xia Houqing was as forgetful as himself, he turned his head and refused to admit it.

"A gentleman's words are hard to follow!" Xia Houqing felt even more angry at this time, "Since a man made a promise, how could he go back on his word like a villain!"

Zheng smiled and replied, "Four mothers are hard to catch up, don't you have eight horses left? I will put an end to the chance of you being a villain, and help you cultivate a gentleman's style!"

After speaking, he instructed Aro, who was standing outside, to get a pen and paper, and set up a document on the spot.

Zheng Wei carefully folded it up and put it in the bag he was carrying, and looked at the two of them with satisfaction, "What plan do you two have, and how do you want me to help you!"

"Let's talk first, Tuobayu must honestly follow us back to Dazhou, otherwise General Xiao won't be able to explain it."

Tuobayu nodded and agreed, and then he talked about the two's plan.

That night, their group settled in a post house in Xiapi City.

In order to avoid leaking Tuoba Yu's whereabouts and causing unnecessary trouble, Xiao Yucheng and the others still used the name of the Zheng family, and they did not alarm the local government.

Zheng Wei got off the carriage, looked at this slightly crude post house, and sighed silently.

As long as she stayed at the hostel and post house along the way, she would escape from death in a thrilling manner, and she had a shadow.

It looks like it won't stop tonight.

After dinner, Zheng Wei borrowed the post house's kitchen to boil a bowl of soothing soup, instructed Ah Qiao to bring it to his grandmother, and then boiled a pot of Tremella and lotus seed soup for Amu Heli and the sergeants under Xiao Yucheng.

At night, everyone rested early, and the sultry summer night was quiet, only the chirping of insects and frogs.

Suddenly, there was a sound of sharp arrows galloping in the night sky, and then a flame in the west wing ignited, and then the fire quickly spread to the east.

Zheng Wei, who had been hiding something in his heart and had not fallen asleep, was shocked when he heard the movement, but there was no such thing in their plan!

She put on her clothes and ran out, and Aro was also awakened and chased out.

Zheng Wei glanced at the yard anxiously when he saw the fire, and sure enough, he saw the gong hanging on the wall in the daytime. on fire!"

He Li, who had been hiding and waiting for an opportunity according to Zheng Wei's instructions, had just escaped a shower of arrows and rushed over.

"what happened?"

Zheng Wei asked He Li.

"Someone doesn't want them to go back to Kyoto alive!"

He Li said solemnly.

Zheng Wei felt relieved when he saw Xiao Yucheng and his subordinates dare to come. Fortunately, she only added soothing soup to the white fungus soup tonight, which would only make them sleep well all night, and would not let them fall asleep. As soon as the gong rang, no matter how well he slept, he was awakened.

With Xiao Yucheng around, she was naturally not needed for defending the enemy. She instructed Ah Qiao to take care of her grandmother, and she ran to the west wing with Ah Luo.

There was a temporary change tonight, and I don't know if Xia Houqing escaped.

When she rushed to the west wing, she happened to meet Tuo Bayu who was carried out of the fire.

Tuoba Yu nodded at her while he was in chaos, and knew that Xia Houqing had left, but Zheng Wei was not relieved.

It's not wise to let go of someone you can never be friends with.

Not many people came, they withdrew without a single blow, and Xiao Yucheng was not able to stay alive.

When everyone put out the fire, Xiao Yucheng stood beside Zheng Wei, looked at the busy crowd and asked in a low voice, "Will you regret letting the tiger return to the mountain one day?"

She had been thinking about this question since she promised Tuobayu at noon, and she still hadn't figured it out yet.So she answered honestly: "I don't know."

Xiao Yucheng was not surprised by this, he was just curious about Zheng Wei.

Decisive and assertive, do things without hesitation!
"If you don't know, why do you still do it?"

Xiao Yucheng asked.

Zheng Wei subconsciously shrugged in denial, "I didn't do anything?"
