The fox minister in the late Tang Dynasty

Chapter 7 An Jingsi

The sun shone through the slanted corner of the shed, looking at Geng Qing who was grinning and blinking non-stop, the three of Dachun looked at each other, gathered together in a row, and whispered.

"Dada Zhu, did the wind get into his eyes?"

"I can't see the dagger on the neck!"

Dachun patted one person on the back of the head, rolled up his sleeves, and seemed to rush forward, the young man nicknamed Shitou quickly grabbed the corner of his clothes and lowered his voice.

"Look at Dazhu blinking non-stop, should we let the three of us escape first?"

"Huh?" Dachun rolled down his sleeves again, frowned and hesitated for a moment, then whispered over there: "Dazhu, do you mean to let us escape first?"

Hearing this, Geng Qing was so angry that he wanted to rush over and beat the three of them on the spot, glanced at the dagger on his neck, and wriggled his lips.

'Flee your mother! '

"Sure enough, let the three of us go first."

Dachun pursed his lips tightly, nodded to the other two companions, and pulled them back with both hands, "I didn't expect Dazhu to recover from his illness and become so affectionate. He must have a way to escape, let's go!"

The three of them punched Geng Qing, and the next moment they all nodded, they turned around and ran towards the gate of the city.

Looking at the backs of the three running away madly, the veins on Geng Qing's forehead twitched.

These bastards!
He wanted to catch up, but before he could move his feet, he was strangled back by the icy coldness on his neck, and the voice of the woman behind him snorted coldly.

"I can't see that you still value love and righteousness so much, let those three go first."

"That's me..." Geng Qing wanted to explain, swallowed the words again, squeezed out a smile and poked the dagger around his neck with his fingertips, "You see, I don't know martial arts, I'm just a farmer, even if I run, I run away But you are not? Can you put this guy away first. "

"Cowardly and afraid of death!"

As soon as the dagger was turned, the woman withdrew her hand and inserted the sharp end back into the sheath. Geng Qing breathed a sigh of relief, the woman's fingers pointed at her waist on the back, her body froze immediately, and she turned her face slightly to look at the other party, and her face was touched The sheath was knocked back.

"What are you looking at, be careful to dig out your eyeballs! Tell me, why did you insult me ​​and other righteous men when you passed the thatched hut just now!"

It turned out to be this crop.

Geng Qing swallowed his saliva, and quickly turned his thoughts in his head. After catching up with the words he had said to the three of Dachun before, he quickly organized the words in his mind, and said:

"This woman, the assassination in the street is for concealment. If you open your mouth and shout for your life, people with a little skill will already be prepared. This is not stupid. This is not a wise move."

The woman froze for a moment.

"It makes sense. Ah, bah, stop talking nonsense, it depends on your dress and appearance, but the peasants in the village, no matter how polite they speak, they must be weird, isn't it the dog official!?"

Pressing the fingertips on the opponent's back, he moved forward a little bit, and the painful Geng Qing almost burst into tears. He wanted to shout but didn't dare. What if he was stabbed to death by this hot-blooded green forest lady? Not worth it.

Quickly organized speech again.

"Girl, I have nothing to do with you, and you are not good at assassination, so you will definitely block the city gate. How about I take you out of the city to avoid the limelight? When I arrive at Gengjia Village, I will know whether I will deceive you."

Once the city is closed and captured by the army in the city, he will surely die. No matter how passionate a person is, he will naturally consider advancing and retreating. After thinking for a moment, the woman let go of the two fingers on the man's waist, and Geng Qing bent over to grab him. He took a handful of soil from the thatched shed and spread it out in front of the woman.

"Smear it, I'm a farmer, bring a beautiful and clean woman, no one will believe it, first get my face dirty."

"you!"

I don't know if the other party did this on purpose. Seeing the dark-faced and thin young man with the corners of his mouth slightly hooked, the woman felt angry in her heart. When she heard the sound of horseshoes and footsteps in the street not far away, she had no time to think about it. He rubbed the handful of dirt on his face and wiped it with his sleeves. When he lowered his hands, there was no youth in front of him. The figure had already run away.

"This liar!!"

The woman looked at the plaster in her hand, remembered the faint smile of the other party just now, stomped her feet angrily, and immediately chased after him. The moment she got close, she drew out her dagger and stabbed the young man in the back. Geng Qing, who was walking, jumped up suddenly, grabbed the bamboo pole hanging on the wooden building, pulled off a coarse linen dress, and threw it to the woman holding the dagger behind her.

"Take it to a place where no one is around and replace it."

"you"

The woman dangled her dagger, looked at the dress in front of her in a daze, was pushed and shoved by Geng Qing anxiously before she came back to her senses, grabbed the dress and jumped to the next courtyard wall, hiding behind, rustling After a while, it fell from the wall again with a swish.

Under the soft crescent eyebrows, the beautiful eyes like a pool of clear water looked at him coldly: "Forget that you didn't run away, otherwise"

"Otherwise, just throw the dagger over and nail me to death, right?!"

It's not that Geng Qing has never seen a beautiful woman before, so he hooked his fingers, "Hurry up, let's go to the city gate, otherwise we won't be able to go out after it's closed."

Nagging words, leading the woman back to the city gate when she came back, I don't know if she has received the news, and she is driving away the business travelers who want to enter and leave, Geng Qing can't care about the woman behind her, anyway The other party was able to keep up, so he ran forward at a faster speed, and bowed his hands politely.

"Everyone, can it be convenient for me and my mother-in-law to go out of the city and return to my hometown?"

"No, the city gate is closed."

"You are exemplary in your dedication. I admire you from the bottom of my heart, and I don't want you to fail in your duties. But my family is poor and can't afford the rent in the city. My wife and I can't spend the night on the street. If we encounter criminals..."

"Hey, I know you. I met you when I entered the city. Let him go."

A soldier with a spear shouted at the door, and then moved out of the way with his colleagues, waving his hands outside: "Let's go quickly, I can tell from your accent that you are a local, from the side of Niujiaji, right?" ? Hey, me too. Hurry up, I won’t be able to leave any later.”

"Thank you very much, big brother, I'm from Gengjia Village in Niujiaji."

While thanking the soldier, Geng Qing greeted the woman behind her who moved her feet carefully and looked wary: "Hurry up, if you insist on following, I was almost locked up in the city. I'll see how I can deal with you when I go back!"

Immediately, he pointed to the woman with a dark face and smiled at the surrounding soldiers: "My mother-in-law is a little shy, take her out to see the world."

The soldier who let go looked at his surrounding comrades and laughed.

"Then I have to clean up when I go back. It's best to fight a fight, and I won't be able to get out of bed until tomorrow, haha!"

The woman lowered her face slightly when she heard these words, and was so angry that she pinched the corners of her clothes as if someone was venting her anger. In the eyes of outsiders, she was too shy to look up after hearing these nasty words, and the two walked out of the city gate. , There was a sudden sound of heavy hoofbeats behind him.

"An Sibing is here!"

The city gate soldiers who were driving people, as well as the business travelers and pedestrians retreated to the sides. A figure in armor dragged a cloak and rode a yellow puma galloping over. There was a group of soldiers behind him. Shaking out a piece of cold and snowy white, leaning on the floor tiles with a bang, standing taller than the figure sitting on the horse's back.

With a still immature face, his eyes glanced at the surrounding soldiers, "The assassin in the city is committing murder, so don't be lazy, let the murderer go, and close the city gate immediately!"

The man only glanced at the gate of the city, then turned his horse's head around, and led more than a dozen soldiers along this section of the city wall to patrol again.

"Look, that's An Sibing from this county, An Jingsi, don't look at how young he is, three years ago, he beat a colorful tiger to death with his bare hands in the mountains, just like beating a wild cat, the tiger's skin is now It’s still hanging on the wall of the county lieutenant’s house, and those assassins really can’t escape this time.”

The soldier at Niujiaji said something to Geng Qing, who had envious eyes, and waved his hand to drive away people with air. After that, the gate of the city was slowly closed with a creaking sound.

Staring at the closed door, Geng Qing frowned slightly and rubbed his chin.

"Tsk... An Jingsi, why does this name sound so familiar... Hiss!"

Before he could think about it, his ears suddenly hurt. The woman squeezed his ears, stared at him, her voice became cold, and she paused every word.

"Who was your mother-in-law just now?!"
