Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

"Why, why..." Liu Liuyao pressed a wound on his leg with his left hand, the blood stained the white dance clothes red, and stared at Zhou Xian with complicated emotions in his eyes. "Apex" novels, anger, hatred, regret... most of them are doubts and incomprehensions.

Zhou Xian's pure and beautiful face was almost distorted at this time, and it was impossible to see if he wanted to cry or laugh.

Yes, what she did was beyond comprehension. As the co-conspirator of this operation, she is also the empress of the Southern Tang Dynasty, so the enemy and us are clearly distinguished! Even if she is weak, even if she can't do it, she doesn't have the ability to do the job of an assassin; but at a critical moment, what does it mean to suddenly turn against the water and instead give the enemy a warning? !

Even she herself didn't quite understand.

The surrounding scene has become empty and empty, and even the screams of the women have become lonely and monotonous, and she is deaf to the noisy cries. She felt her soul had been sucked out. The soldiers shouted and cursed angrily, shaking their weapons, but Zhou Xian didn't even have any fear.

Responsibility, the duty of being a queen to be loyal to the country; concern, concern for her sister and relatives in Jiangning Mansion; loyalty, the womanhood that a woman should guard... Countless pressures and endless cocoons have already wrapped her up, she has no other choice, there is only one way...

Perhaps given enough time for Zhou Xian to think and weigh, she will eventually succumb to the cocoon of the world, because the consequences are foreseeable and the pros and cons are obvious; just like when she left in Tokyo and returned to the Southern Tang Kingdom.

However, this time she was not given the opportunity to weigh the pros and cons. In a hurry, she saw the bright murder weapon and smelled the murderous intent in the air. Liu Liuyao's swordsmanship is quite good, Zhou Xian thinks that she is very likely to succeed within a few steps of Guo Shao, at that moment Zhou Xian really feels that Guo Shao will be stabbed to death if he is not prepared enough!

So she obeyed her heart, couldn't control herself, and shouted that sentence: General Guo, that man is an assassin! Behind these words, how much pressure she endured and how much courage she mustered, I am afraid that only she herself understands.

She is not a courageous person, she is similar inside and outside, very weak. But she really couldn't bear the result of Guo Shao's being stabbed to death, especially if she could avoid it; in that case, death and death with regret would not be enough, she felt that she would also die with her soul.

Living in this world, she has only felt pain and emptiness in recent years. It was this man who soothed her scars with warm eyes, his eyes were like clean sunshine, awakening her nostalgia for life with a sincere heart, it was this man who made her no longer numb. The price may be a bit high for the short-lived love, but she can't control herself...

Zhou Xian turned his head to look at the superior, and there were two warriors blocking him in front of him. From the gap between the two warriors, one could faintly see Guo Shao lowering his head, but he didn't say a word.

The people in the big tent had different attitudes and were in a mess. Only Guo Shao sat on that chair from the beginning to the end, and he didn't move a bit, even when Liu Liuyao attacked, he stayed there. He is like a centering post in a pot of boiling water. Now he didn't respond either, as if he didn't see and hear all this.

Although he was already behind, he still had an aura that intimidated the whole scene and condensed the order in this chaos.

Zhou Xian could tell that this young man had gradually grown into a big man, and he was no longer the simple martial artist who came from the bottom as people had speculated.

Zhou Xian looked at him who was silent, tears finally slipped down his cheeks:

I will die, ruined and ruined forever, sacrifice myself as a devout tribute, and offer my soul to worship this relationship. And you should live well; I believe that your life is worthwhile, and your life is more useful to the world.

I remember your domineering eyes looking at the sails covering the sky by the river, your ambition will definitely become a reality! You already have the air of grandeur, the aptitude to be a hero or even a hero, possess a vast land of mountains and rivers, and have the strength to be a master of tigers and wolves. Even if I can't see it, I can imagine that one day you will achieve a majestic hegemony that has never been seen before or since.

I believe that you have a pure heart that loves the world at the same time, and you have achieved dominance, and you will bring light and fire to the world. The righteousness you mentioned will definitely be done, and will not disappoint the life and soul I enshrined for you today, and will make everything worthwhile...

"Put it down! Throw away the sword!" Zhou Xian was awakened by the angry shout of a warrior.

Zhou Xian's face was full of tears, and he looked bewildered. He lowered his head and glanced at the sword he was still holding in his hand. It was a sword weapon used for dancing swords, but it could also be used as a weapon. She didn't put it down, but slowly lifted it up.

Her actions immediately aroused the vigilance of the soldiers, and they raised the crossbow facing the ground again, and someone shouted: "What do you want to do?"

At this moment, a voice suddenly said: "Stop! Don't hurt her!"

Guo Shao's voice was full of anxiety and concern. Zhou Xian's cheeks became hot again, and new hot tears came out, but a charming smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, smiling at Guo Shao who stood up nervously.

Without pausing, she twisted her upper body slightly, and quickly raised the sword to her neck. At this moment, a palm suddenly stretched out and grabbed Jianfeng directly... Blood immediately burst out from between the fingers holding Jianfeng. Zhou Xian was taken aback, she was a little dizzy with blood, even if she was not afraid of death, her hands and feet felt weak when she saw the blood. When he looked up, he saw a young strong man standing in front of him. Zhou Xian had seen a young general who was often by Guo Shao's side, and his name seemed to be Lu Chengyong.

Lu Chengyong didn't seem to feel the pain at all, and said expressionlessly: "My lord doesn't allow you to die, so you can't die."

At this moment, Guo Shao walked over quickly. He is the core of the Chinese army's big tent, and when there is a change, everyone's eyes are focused on him, and people look at him curiously.

Liu Liuyao suddenly sneered and said, "I finally know..."

When Zhou Xian heard this rather teasing sentence, he obviously satirized her for being shameless and unfeminine. Her heart was churning, all kinds of emotions were intertwined, she raised her head and looked at Guo Shao with pleading eyes: "General Guo, just let me go, I feel worse living than dying."

Guo Shao's face turned blue and white, and he said decisively: "If I can't even protect a woman, what kind of man am I?"

The generals and singers all looked sideways. He took another breath and said, "Remember what I said? When we first met yesterday, I told you, don't worry, I will take care of everything. "

Zhou Xian did remember this sentence, but she didn't think much about it at the time.

Guo Shao's voice said again: "But you don't listen. Now let me say it again, can you believe me, just once... Promise me now, don't rush to die, otherwise I will not be able to forgive myself."

Hearing this, Zhou Xian's body softened slightly, and the excitement just now eased up a bit. She has an indescribable obsession with the feeling of being loved, valued, and treated with care.

She really didn't want to die, she was very nostalgic for life at this time, and she couldn't bear to feel like this.

At this moment, the envoy of the Southern Tang Dynasty suddenly fell to the ground with a plop, and everyone turned their heads to look over. The envoy's face was pale: "Who sent this assassin? He wants to bring our Southern Tang Kingdom into a place of injustice! General Guo, I swear to God, our court has no knowledge of this..."

... Zuo You said coldly: "Who has the guts, and who picked these singing girls? Of course it's your king who did this kind of thing."

"General Guo... Calm down, everyone." The envoy hurriedly said.

Guo Shao, however, looked annoyed and couldn't rest. He had long been alerted to the assassin from various signs, but he was not sure before the woman actually did it... No matter how I think about it, I can't figure out why Li Yu did such a thing, where is the courage. After all, Li Yu is the king.

There is a feeling of embarrassment turning into anger. This is because I think I am a soft eggplant, and I am not afraid of my revenge?

Guo Shao managed to restrain his inner anger and chaotic thoughts. He exhaled, looked around, looked around, and looked at the officials on the ground, and said coldly: "The envoy of the Southern Tang Kingdom, the general should have reminded you, you have to understand that what the assassin did tonight will have very serious consequences."

The envoy's face was pale and bloodless. As a bureaucrat who is familiar with government affairs, he should understand.

When Zuo You heard Guo Shao's words, he immediately stood up and said loudly: "The Southern Tang Dynasty's monarchs and ministers are unrighteous, and the Jiangning Mansion is ruled by a tyrannical government! They even plotted to kill Marshal Guo with such a despicable means, generals, which one can bear and which one cannot bear!"

Dong Zunhui was the most annoyed. He waved his fist as if he wanted to hit someone, and shouted: "The army flattened the Jiangning Mansion and razed the capital of the Southern Tang Kingdom to the ground! We want revenge, and we can only quell the anger in our hearts by killing Li Yu's entire family!"

All the generals were very angry, because they supported Guo Shao very much, and immediately shouted and killed in the big tent, and the atmosphere of violence suddenly permeated.

Zuo You turned to look at Guo Shao. Guo Shao had been silent for a long time just now, when he felt Zuo You's gaze, he turned his head and glanced at him. Guo Shao understood what he meant, and said at the right time: "The battle is imminent, and I am very relieved that you all have brave hearts. My Great Zhou army is justified, and we will be invincible in every battle!"

After hearing this, everyone shouted angrily: "Invincible, invincible..."

Amidst the noise, Guo Shao paid attention to Zhou Xian's appearance again, she looked haggard and tangled. Lu Chengyong was still standing beside him, fisting his injured hand to stop the bleeding. Guo Shao looked at his injured hand with a questioning expression. Lu Chengyong clasped his fists and said: "It's just a skin injury, it will be fine in the end."

Guo Shao nodded, patted him on the shoulder, and said in a deep voice, "Look at the woman who hurt you, and send her back to my tent later."

"Understood." Lu Chengyong said.

Guo Shao glanced at the remaining envoys and singing girls of the Southern Tang Kingdom again, and said, "All are in custody, waiting for a judge to convict them. No one shall be released, nor shall they be allowed to leak information."

The two generals performed the salute and replied: "Here."

He looked at Zhou Xian again, but didn't make it too obvious, and left here with her. Immediately, he took the lead to walk outside the big tent of the Chinese army.
