Ever since Ling Shu was beaten in Xiangquan Temple, Yang Tao was busy with affairs here, so he hadn't come to see him. At this time, his anger was almost gone. Thinking of his appearance after being beaten that day, he suddenly felt distressed again, and then Entering the room, I saw Ling Shu lying on his face on the couch with whip wounds on his back, sleeping with his pillow on his arms.
He asked the waiter to go out for a while, watched from a distance for a long time, and slowly approached. The martial arts practitioners were extremely alert. Ling Shu sensed that someone was coming, and suddenly opened his eyes, and saw that it was Yang Tao. He closed his eyes again.
Yang Tao coughed twice and asked, "How is today? Are you resenting me?"
Ling Shu didn't pay attention to him, and the room fell into silence for a moment. After a long time, Ling Shu whispered: "No."
Yang Tao sighed sadly: "I hope you didn't lie to me, you really don't hate me. You also have to understand my embarrassment. Now I only have you and He Qingchun by my side. You go to drag others like this. In the past, you There are rumors about the two of them again, how can I not panic or get angry? Do I believe it or not in my heart? What can I do?"
He looked at Ling Shu on the couch, but he couldn't hear Ling Shu's excuse. Thinking that the rumors in the past were true, he was filled with jealousy and hatred for a moment, and the feeling was unspeakable. But this time he had already been beaten to the bed, and he couldn't argue with him any longer, so he continued, "I am deeply regretting that I left in such a hurry when the sun rose from Luoyang that even a few loyal ministers didn't take me with me." Come out, so there is no one available today, alas!"
Ling Shu raised his head slowly this time, thought for a moment, and said: "Your Majesty, if you have any embarrassing things, you can leave it to me."
He was lying on the bed half dead, and even wanted to solve Yang Tao's worries and problems. Yang Tao was a little surprised, but he couldn't help but admire sincerely: "As expected, you are the most loyal. But what can you do if you are so injured? Even if I let you go, I can't bear it."
Ling Shu frowned and said nothing, and said after a while: "What's the matter?"
Yang Tao said: "It's okay to tell you, just take a look at this letter. I was thinking of letting a few Yi Zhenwei go, but it seems that I am not dignified enough, and I am in trouble."
Ling Shu took the letter to read, raised his eyes to look at Yang Tao who was full of worry, and then said resolutely: "This matter is of great importance, I will go."
His face was pale, but he sat up slowly, and before Yang Tao could speak, he continued, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely deliver the letter."
The two sides are now in the period of armistice and peace talks. Although both are ready to fight, there are not many disputes. It was three o'clock in the evening, at the north gate of Chuzhou, Rong Zhengfu and Lin Jiyao's soldiers had an argument for some reason, which caused a commotion, and finally involved the navy, and it took a long time to subside. It was through this chaos that Ling Shu led Yi Zhenwei and sneaked out of the north gate. Because Ling Shu was injured and couldn't bear the bumps, he came to Jinling by boat and by water.
With a local fisherman from Chuzhou as a guide, the boat only chose the remote and small fork, and also had to avoid spies and sporadic soldiers from all walks of life, so the boat sailed slowly.
On this day, he crossed the Yangtze River and gradually approached the north gate of Jinling City. The city wall on the north side of Jinling is a world-famous stone city, next to the great river, where Jun Wenzhe hoarded a large number of sailors and warships. There are not only the main gate on the city wall, but also a water gate at the entrance of the Qinhuai River. There are three gate towers in total, the middle is the widest and the left and right are second. On weekdays, only the one on the left is open for the passage of ships going to and from Jinling. Layers of iron chains were pulled up on the Qinhuai River outside the water gate, prohibiting ships from passing casually.
Due to the war in the north of the river, although Jinling can enter and exit freely, the inspection of the passing ships is extremely strict, so there are many fewer, and the surface of the river is sparse. Ling Shu stared at the water gate from a distance for a while, and then ordered: "Just abandon the boat and enter the city."
Ling Shu waved his hand and said, "Don't bother your generals, I'll go in by myself." He ordered the boat to go to the north gate of the city to find a remote place to dock.
The boat just turned around, but it heard a loud and long voice shouting from the far side of the water gate: "Captain Jun sees off the guests, open the water gate! The idlers disperse!" Called over, all the merchant ships outside the door immediately retreated far away, judging by the momentum, it seems that this Jun Wenzhe is indeed a great man in Jinling.
After a while, the water gate in the middle opened, and six medium-sized warships sailed out in two rows. There were many soldiers on board, and they stopped outside the water gate on both sides. Afterwards, two double-story boats, one in front and one in the back, slowly sailed out of the water gate, with cornices and corners, which were extremely gorgeous. Ling Shu looked intently, and saw two people surrounded by a large number of guards at the stern of the boat in front, one of them looked like Yang Ye in that crazy appearance.
He was stunned for a moment, still not believing it, and looked carefully for a moment, Yang Ye and him, all kinds of entanglements, grievances and grievances were difficult to distinguish, how could they not recognize it, it seemed that they were indeed.
For a moment, he stayed there, and after a while he came back to his senses, turned his eyes to the boat behind, and saw a man standing alone in the bow of the boat, dressed in light blue, with a high-spirited gesture, he was clasping his fists to say goodbye to Yang Ye , while saying: "It will not be far away in this way, please take care of my sister in the future, Jun is very grateful here."
Yang Ye returned the salute with clasped fists, and said in a loud voice: "Don't worry, general, please go back now!" A woman in a splendid dress beside him returned the salute.
Before Ling Shu could make a sound, the deputy general beside him became excited, pointed at the man in blue and said, "Look, my lord, that's my general! How about I go and offer you a letter of worship? Hey, why is this one leaving? Guest, a bit like the Marquis of Huainan next to His Royal Highness Zhao Wang?"
During the battle between the two sides in Chuzhou, he had seen Yang Ye twice from a distance, but he didn't dare to confirm it. Ling Shu was noncommittal, just stared at the ship from a distance, and asked, "Who is that woman beside him?"
Just at this moment, the big boat was slowly coming out, and it was getting closer to the boat. With a distance of more than ten feet, there was a faint river wind, and fragmentary words came from the boat. Ling Shu's ear was so strong that Yang Ye seemed to be Said: "Sister-in-law Liuhuang, it's windy here, you go first to the cabin."
The deputy general also looked at the bow for a while, and said: "It seems that the cousin of General Jun used to go in and out of the general's mansion. The last general followed General Lin and was lucky to meet him a few times. Now he is married in the capital and enjoys happiness with the King of Wu. I went, it is said that this time she was thrown in Luoyang by the heartless King Wu. Could it be that she has returned to Jinling? I haven’t seen her for several years, so I don’t know if it’s true.”
Ling Shu's heart skipped a beat, and he was stunned for a long time. Seeing the ship coming head-on with the wind and the current, Yang Ye at the bow was proud of himself, chatting and laughing with the people around him, he suddenly became angry, thinking that Yang Xi was planning to force Yang Ye Tao has reached such a point that he signed the peace treaty on the surface, but secretly tampered with it, and refused to leave Yang Tao with a way of life.
The officer turned his head to Jun Wenzhe's direction, and saw that Jun Wenzhe's boat had retreated slowly. He hurried forward a few steps, and was about to yell loudly for his general to stop, when Ling Shu behind him lowered his face, and suddenly drew his sword out of its sheath. The man heard the wind, but he couldn't dodge it in time, he just felt a chill in the back of his heart, and then the cold penetrated into his heart, so cold that his internal organs almost turned over. Shocked, he lowered his head and saw that there was a glistening sword blade on his chest.
The deputy general opened his mouth wide, exclaimed, and forced himself to look back at Ling Shu with disbelief on his face: "You...you...why did you kill me?"
Ling Shu drew his sword and turned around. Seeing that he seemed to be dying, he explained in conscience: "General Jun values his sister, not his brother-in-law. Next, your General Lin will also rebel, so it is useless to keep you." He turned back This gesture, this pair brought several soldiers in the future, mixed with the Yi Zhen guards led by Ling Shu, and when they saw Ling Shu's gesture, they could only hear muffled groans, and all the soldiers didn't even cry out. When Gu Shang sent it out, Yi Zhenwei dealt with it extremely swiftly and cleanly.
For a time, the ship was filled with blood, and corpses were strewn all over the place. The officer fell to the ground with his sword drawn, his body convulsed and twisted a few times, and he murmured: "You...you..." His body convulsed and twitched a few times on the bow of the ship, and then died of exhaustion. Ling Shu kicked him into the water, turned around and ordered Yi Zhenwei: "Turn back to Chuzhou!"
Jun Wenzhe was far away, so it was okay, but Yang Ye vaguely heard the exclamation, looked over across the river, and suddenly saw Ling Shu at the bow of the boat. The two faced each other from a distance, Yang Ye didn't know why he suddenly appeared here, nor why he killed people, for a moment, it was like a dream.
Seeing Ling Shu's boat turn around and leave, he suddenly understood, repented, jumped to the side of the boat, and shouted: "Stop!"
Ling Shu ignored him, and just urged the boatman to leave quickly. His boat was small and light, faster than Yang Ye's double-story boat, and it was easier to turn around. But after a short time, he has already traveled a long way on the river, getting farther and farther away from Yang Ye. Yang Ye was in a hurry, and jumped towards Ling Shu's boat and said, "Don't go, stop for me! Chase, hurry up and chase me!" He came to Jinling quietly on a merchant ship, and Jun Wenzhe didn't know when he returned. Ken wronged his cousin to take the merchant ship again, so he sent a big ship specially for him, so there were some Jinling sailors on board. To follow the hands to kill the enemy.
Yang Ye felt that something was wrong, so he hurriedly stopped and said: "Don't hurt him, it's serious to catch up quickly."
He chased him halfway across the river, but he didn't catch up. Seeing that he had reached the north bank of the river, a large area of Di flowers was flying over the bank, and flocks of water birds were startled by the boat and flew away one after another. Yang Ye saw that the boat was about to sink into the Di Hua, and was in a hurry, but saw a fishing boat moored not far away from the reed marshes. The sky has eyes, and he had no time to think, so he pulled up a cable, Under the exclamation of the guards behind him, he jumped onto the small boat, took out a piece of silver and handed it to the fisherman: "Hurry up and catch up with the boat in front, there will be a lot of rewards!"
While the old fisherman was hesitating, Yang Ye gave him a murderous look, he had no choice but to point the long pole, and the boat flew out like an arrow off the string. After chasing after Ling Shu's boat not far behind, Yang Ye shouted: "Ling Shu, wait, wait for me to say a few words!"
Ling Shu had already entered the cabin, but he didn't respond and didn't come out. Yang Ye said angrily: "You ignore me, why don't you just let your Yi Zhenwei shoot me dead with a poisonous arrow, and I won't pester you anymore. , you can get out of the wall as you please, or you will never try to get rid of me in this life!"
He yelled a few words like this, but he didn't wait for the poisonous arrow. Hope rose in his heart, and he said, "I just want to ask a few words. I want to ask if your injury is healed? The arrow injury last time, this The last whiplash, is it all healed?"
Still couldn't hear Ling Shu's reply, so he went on nagging: "You said why are you so determined, Yang Tao is now at the end of the road, why do you have to follow him? You see him beating you like this, but I treat you like that. You're so nice, I'm thinking of you all the time, I don't even visit the fireworks fence for a while, why don't you come to me?" Of course, he has been marching with Yang Xi all the time, and Yang Xi can see He is very strict, and it is true that he has no time to go shopping.
Ling Shu finally responded, but he said coldly: "Looking for you? Will you shoot me to death with an arrow?"
Yang Ye was so choked that his face turned pale, and he couldn't speak for a while. After a while, he apologized and said, "I can't help it, and I will never do it in the future! Ling Shu, let me tell you, your emperor will definitely die in the end. Seeing his building Jiang Qing, do you want to follow him to seek your own death? You should wake up and don't go back to Chuzhou City, come and follow me, okay?"
Ling Shudao: "How can you easily abandon the grace of 18 years of nurturing? Even if you want to kill yourself, I will admit it."
Yang Ye panicked, stomped on the boat, and almost chopped the boat over: "You really don't know what to do! You are stubborn! You are a dead man! You are not familiar with the white-eyed wolf! I have served you so many times in vain, what do you take?" Let me do donkey liver and lung with good intentions! It seems that all my strength was for nothing in the past! You wait, if you dare to let me kill your emperor and catch you, I will let you know how many eyes Prince Ma has!"
