Concubine's three acres of pastoral garden

Chapter 304 The King Is Dead (8)
Shi Yan said: "Why does Young Master Lu know this person?"

Lu Fusheng said: "I know him. His name is Xu Che. He is the younger brother of Luo Xuan's bodyguard named Xu Lin. A few years ago, he was a powerful general under Qin Kai's command. Later, when the Southern Border and the Northern Border were deployed for defense, he was dispatched. I went to the northern border to garrison, and there has been no news for so many years, I didn't expect him to be in the capital at this time!"

"Brother?" Shi Yan read with great interest: "It would be a pity if such a strong general died under the siege of the soldiers, but it would be a good thing if he could be included in my account!"

Lu Fusheng said: "I'm afraid it will not be easy. This person has a very stubborn temper. When he was in the army, he would not accept anyone except Qin Kai. Although it has been a few years, it is estimated that there will be no change."

Shi Yan said: "That's not necessarily the case. Seeing that Luo Xuan is powerless, I don't believe that he will swear allegiance to the death!"

Although Lu Fusheng thought it was impossible for Xu Che to surrender, Lu Hong didn't think so, and asked Shi Yan for orders: "If the general wants to cherish his talent, why don't I persuade him?"

Shi Yan said: "Okay, then there is Old General Lao Lu, but this person is very skilled, the old general must be careful not to fall into his schemes."

Lu Hong said: "It doesn't matter, this person is brave but not scheming, he doesn't have much scheming, his little tricks won't fool me."

After finishing speaking, he rode his horse forward, came outside the encirclement surrounding Xu Che, and shouted: "Soldiers, stop!"

The last general guarding the east city knew that he was coming under Yan's order, so he quickly asked the soldiers to stop and make way for him.

Xu Che was exhausted after a round of killing, and the hand holding the knife was trembling suddenly. The soldiers of the Southern Liao Dynasty stopped him and he finally got a chance to breathe, and Hengdao immediately seized the time to recover his strength.

Lu Hong rode out from the crowd, stopped a foot away from him, and said, "Excuse me, is this General Xu Che?"

Lu Hong was transferred there after Xu Che left Nanjiang, so Xu Che didn't know him, so when he saw him, he asked, "It's your young master, I don't know who you are, old man?"

Lu Hongdao: "General Xu, don't be rude. Old man Lu Hong, you should have heard of it. I came out to see you for your own good. Why should General Xu be so hostile?"

Xu Che heard that he turned out to be Lu Hong, an old thief who betrayed his country and sought glory. He almost wanted to pounce on him and kill him with a knife, but before he could move, his thoughts turned around, and he sat on the horse and said with a cold face. : "Oh, so you are General Lu Hong!"

Lu Hong was a little surprised. He didn't expect Xu Che to be more polite when he heard his name. Not only did he not scold him immediately, he even added the word "general" after his name.

He said happily in his heart: "It seems that the general is not an unreasonable person. I wonder if I can listen to the old man's advice, don't be obsessed with Luo Xuan and work for that trash, and surrender to Nanliao with us and make contributions!"

Xu Che sneered and said, "Gong Hong, it's not because of you that I'm being polite to you, don't be so proud!"

Lu Hong said: "Oh, then I would like to hear, what is the reason why General Xu didn't show his supernatural power to this old man?"

Xu Che said: "I was just entrusted by an old woman on her deathbed, and I want to bring you a word, to give you a good face because of the old woman's staunch, loyal and upright integrity!"

When he said this, Lu Hong already had some premonitions, and said with a cold expression: "Who is that old woman you're talking about? She...is she dead?"

Xu Che said: "You should be able to think of who I'm talking about. Of course I'm talking about your wife, Lu Fusheng's mother, old lady Chen! As for life and death? If it's not about death, what are the last words at the end of life!"

Lu Hong's body on the horse shook slightly. He thought that his family members' lives would be in danger at the beginning of his rebellion, but he was still very sad when he heard about it, and asked, "What did she say before she died?"

Xu Che said: "Before she died, she said that she had a great regret in this life, let me tell you, I hope you can help her complete it!"

Lu Hong said: "What regrets does she have?"

"She said her regret is..." Xu Che said a string of strange characters.

Lu Hong thought he was really talking about his wife's last words, and said, "I didn't hear what you said!"

Xu Che shook his head helplessly, and sighed, "Oh, General Lu is really old, and he can't even hear this clearly..."

While talking, he beat his horse and walked forward.

Madam's death had hit Lu Hong too hard, so he didn't think carefully for a while, and Xu Che's actions naturally didn't arouse his vigilance, so not only did he not dodge, but he even urged his horse to walk towards Xu Che cooperatively.

Seeing this, Shi Yan, who was watching outside, realized something was wrong, and shouted: "Old General Lu, be careful..."

But it was too late when he barked, Xu Che's horse took a few steps forward and entered a suitable distance. When Shi Yan barked, he had already flew up, and rushed towards Lu Hong like an eagle!

Lu Hong has been in a daze until he saw Xu Che's figure getting closer and closer to him, and he hastily swung the spear in his hand to stab Xu Che.

Xu Che had been prepared for a long time. When he flew over, he didn't put down the knife in his hand. He was in mid-air, but the knife had already swung out at Lu Hong's spear with all his strength and collapsed.

He was very strong and accurate, but after all Lu Hong's physical strength had declined over the years, he knocked him hard, and the spear flew out of his hand and fell into the crowd in the distance.

"what!"

As soon as Lu Hong let out a cry of surprise, Xu Che's feet had already landed on his horse's back. He lifted his belt and placed him horizontally in front of the saddle, and Xu Che's body had already sat on the saddle instead of him. At the same time, the big knife in his hand was pressed against his neck.

"Father!"

Lu Fusheng was terrified, screamed in pain and wanted to rush over.

"Stop! One more step and I'll kill the old man!"

Lu Fusheng was so frightened by Xu Che's roar that he quickly reined in his horse. The horse's front hooves stood up high, and it stopped abruptly.

This fluttering, knocking and grasping was done neatly and neatly. Seeing Shi Yan clapping his hands in admiration, he felt more and more that this person was very skillful.

When Lu Fusheng saw his father being arrested, Shi Yan clapped his hands and applauded, then turned around and shouted: "General Shi, save my father quickly!"

Only then did Shi Yan realize that the captured Lu Hong belonged to his side, put down his clapping hands and frowned and said, "Is this... a bit difficult, now that General Lu is under his sword, we moved him slightly Then he will kill Old General Lu."

Lu Fusheng said: "Isn't the general good at arrows? If you shoot him dead with an arrow, my father will be saved!"

Shi Yan said: "General Lu, are you sure this is not trying to harm your father? If he sees me stretching my bow and arrow, he will kill your father immediately, and if I don't threaten him, he should take your father as a crime." Hostage, which way do you think your father is safer?"

Lu Fusheng stopped talking. Although Shi Yan's words were reasonable, Lu Fu somehow felt that Shi Yan was unwilling to save Xu Che's life in order to save his father.
