Chapter 121 Chapter Forty-Three: Men vs Women

The sky was dark, the clouds were very low, and the air was very dull. The strong wind rolled the leaves and stones and rolled them on the ground, roaring like a beast, and the trees shook violently, as if they were about to be blown in the middle It was broken, it was noon, but the sun could not be seen, only the gray light enveloped the entire Tang capital. A downpour is brewing. The carriage was running fast, the driver was yelling vigorously, and the soldiers mounted on horseback, guarding the carriage in a thunderous formation, and ran quickly along the lane near the city wall in the huge imperial city.

The strong wind brought sand and rocks and slapped the carriage, making a rustling sound. Chu Qiao's hands were covered with blood, and she covered most of her face with white silk.She checked the surrounding situation calmly, waiting for the best time to escape. She must find Yan Xun immediately, he should not have entered the city yet, otherwise he will definitely show up today, maybe he is outside the city.But once this matter got to his ears, she couldn't imagine what would happen.Although Zhao Chun'er was stupid, she was right about one thing. She and Yan Xun were not only each other's arms, but also each other's deathbed.

As for Li Ce, she didn't believe that someone would calculate him so easily.That's a fox, if he doesn't plan on others, that person should be lucky for himself.Even if a situation arises, she believes that Li Ce has the ability to easily turn things around. The sound of horseshoes trampled the tranquility of the long street, and the autumn wind was rustling, flying sand and rocks, making it even more chilling. Seeing that the carriage was about to turn into the main road and enter the Inner Imperial City, Chu Qiao made a decisive decision. If she didn't leave at this time, it would be difficult to find a good opportunity.She gritted her teeth slightly, touched the dagger on her calf with her palm, and waited for a good opportunity to make a move.

However, at this moment, a clear whistle cut through the regular sound of horseshoes, and the "swish" sound of the crossbow came in an instant! The screams of war horses sounded immediately, and in an instant, the soldiers and horses of Da Xia turned on their backs, shouting and screaming angrily, and the situation was extremely chaotic.On the tall trees and fences on both sides, the deadly evil star jumped down from the sky, flying knives and crossbows, bending bows and sharp blades, with precise and impeccable strength.These Xia soldiers who had just undergone a major change had no chance to resist when they were caught off guard. Half of them were injured and fell off their horses.

"God help me too!" Chu Qiao was overjoyed, it seemed that Zhao Chun'er had quite a few enemies, such a god-given opportunity, if he didn't know how to grasp it, he would be a fool. She quickly jumped off the carriage, and was about to slip away when a cold light approached her eyes. Two black-clothed masked men stepped forward, and Chu Qiao gritted her teeth. It seemed that the target of these was Zhao Chuner, the unfortunate princess. With a twist of his body, he rushed forward with a stride, and head-to-head confrontation, to see who is faster than whom! "Bang bang" two muffled sounds, Chu Qiao flew up with two feet, and kicked the two men's lower body fiercely, the ear-piercing screams sounded out immediately, looking extremely ferocious on this weird long street.Chu Qiao didn't have time to look back to appreciate the results of the battle, so she ran away. Seeing that the other party was also Zhao Chun'er's enemy, she didn't do anything cruel, but whether she could still be a normal man after being kicked by her was out of her scope of consideration within.

Murderous aura raged, swords and swords were everywhere, and the men in black struck fiercely, as if they didn't intend to save lives. Everyone who followed behind was holding an axe, and they smashed down their heads when they met a living person. Everywhere you looked, everything was tragic The blood stains and white brains, ordinary people will probably vomit immediately after seeing it. Start hard enough! Chu Qiao narrowed her eyes slightly, mobilized all her strength, and ran with all her strength, at an astonishingly fast speed.At this time, as long as they ran out of this street and entered the main street, it would be considered a success. She did not believe that this group of people had the guts to openly commit murder on the main street.

The other party seemed to have seen through her purpose, and suddenly, a black figure rushed up from behind, moving extremely fast, his agility was not inferior to Chu Qiao's, and he approached in an instant, only five or six steps away from her, running side by side in parallel.While running, he drew out the crossbow behind him, pulled the bow while running, and shot it with a whoosh! At this moment, Chu Qiao's head was wrapped in white silk, her face was covered with a large amount of blood, and her long hair was scattered in front of her forehead, like a lunatic.But all this did not hinder her movement and eyesight. Seeing the opponent's bow and arrow hit her thigh, she grabbed the protrusion of the wall and jumped with her strength.

There was a crisp click, and the arrow hit the wall and broke immediately, which shows how strong the man is. Good means! Chu Qiao squinted, but she was not discouraged when she saw that the opponent missed a hit, but drew out another sharp arrow. How can he make his wish come true every time?Chu Qiao snorted coldly, took out a handful from her bosom, and then sternly shouted: "Hidden weapon!" After the battle with the Central Army, Chu Qiao was at the end of her strength and lost all her strength. Now that she was forced to a critical juncture, she unexpectedly burst out her final potential. However, the man still heard it.I saw the black shadow reacting extremely quickly, and he was dodging with a strange figure, but everywhere he could see, where was there any hidden weapon?

Looking back, Chu Qiao had already run far away, that person snorted unconvinced, and ran after her again. This place is located in a remote place, full of small streets and alleys, Chu Qiao ignored the shadow behind her, and hurriedly shuttled back and forth in the alleys. But soon, she felt something was wrong, the other party's reaction was too fast.She is fast, he is also fast, she is slow, he is also slow, she turns, the other party doesn't even need a short reaction time, the steps are the same, the speed is the same, the movements are the same, they follow each other like a shadow, and they don't say a word from the beginning to the end!

Who did this idiot Zhao Chun'er offend? Chu Qiao was extremely angry, and in a flash of thought, a big banyan tree blocked the road. Chu Qiao narrowed her eyes, and quickly ran towards the banyan tree, then suddenly stopped, her figure flashed, and was completely hidden by the side of the banyan tree .According to normal reasoning, it is impossible for anyone to stop suddenly without preparation. Even if that person is agile, he will definitely be one step ahead of Chu Qiao when he stops. Swing the dagger. However, at this moment, a sharp sense of crisis suddenly hit her heart, Chu Qiao squatted down almost without hesitation, and then, on the other side of the banyan tree, a knife light scraped across her scalp, even A few strands of hair fluttered down from both sides!

Depend on! Chu Qiao couldn't help but want to yell loudly, the other party seemed to be sure that she would have this move, the speed and footsteps were just right, when she vowed to wait for him to plot, he had already prepared the second move arrange! He is so depressed! In the blink of an eye, Chu Qiao had mobilized all the fighting nerves in her mind, adjusted her posture, and immediately made the best battle preparations. If I didn't kill him, I would feel sorry for my modern instructors and fall into the prestige of modern agents for nothing. But at this moment, a whistling sound suddenly sounded above the head, menacingly, accompanied by a large amount of wind.Chu Qiao was startled, before she realized what was going on, there was a sudden pain in her back, and she was smashed down by something, the huge pain almost made her spit out blood! But what happened next really made her vomit blood. Immediately afterwards, a high-pitched cry came, and a seven or eight-year-old child sat on Chu Qiao's back, wiping his gaudy face and crying loudly! It turned out that before they ran over, there was a child playing on the tree. She claimed to be the super commander of the Military Intelligence Department in vain, and she didn't even know that there was someone hiding in the tree. During their fight, the child Frightened, his hands trembled, and he just soared into the sky and landed on Chu Qiao's body! Is there anything more bloody than this? Chu Qiao pushed the child away, and when she was planning to fight back with a fluke mentality, a sword had already reached her neck. The sound of chaotic footsteps approached quickly, immediately surrounded her, several sabers were mounted, Chu Qiao raised her head viciously and stared at the crying child.Then someone whispered from behind: "I didn't expect the princess to be so skilled." Another person interjected: "It's understandable that the Zhao clan started out with a horse bow and some martial arts skills, but I didn't expect the princess to be so good at it." What do they call Zhao Chun'er? Princess?Could it be someone from Daxia? A war horse came galloping from a distance, and the man on the horse jumped off the horse, also wrapped his head and face in a black scarf, ran forward a few steps and said: "Our people are still dragging, there is still time." The man in black who was fighting Chu Qiao nodded, and the other person beside him said, "Grab her and go to the square." A man in black who restrained Chu Qiao said, "Put down your weapon." People under the eaves had to bow their heads and listen to these words. Throwing down the dagger with a bang, Chu Qiao was considering whether to reveal her identity in front of this group of unknown people and tell them that she was not Zhao Chun'er.At this time, the man in black with superb skills suddenly stepped forward, stretched out his slender and powerful hand, and squeezed Chu Qiao's chin. Chu Qiao snorted coldly, suddenly became ruthless, shook her head fiercely, opened her mouth and bit the man's tiger's mouth fiercely! The sound of flesh and blood breaking could be heard, and the blood flowed down the man's wound. Chu Qiao's small face was fair and thin, her eyes were wide open, and there was a line of blood on her chin. Her eyes looked like an unyielding wolf. , looked at the man fiercely. "what!" Loud and low voices sounded at the same time, but no one stepped forward to respond to Chu Qiao's rebellious and reckless action in the slightest. The man looked at Chu Qiao, seemed to be stunned, and let her bite, without speaking or moving.A black cloth hood was placed on his head, revealing only a pair of eyes that had covered his eyes, but his eyes, apart from the shock at the beginning, slowly revealed a hint of a smile. Chu Qiao was also stunned, these eyes were too familiar, she slowly opened her mouth as if she was stupid, and stared blankly. "Ha ha!" The man suddenly laughed, pulled off the hood, pulled Chu Qiao up, then opened his arms, hugging her tightly in his arms. "I knew you wouldn't die so easily!" Zhuge Yue laughed loudly like a happy child.His eyes were so joyful, but his complexion was still a little pale, and there were blue stubbles on his chin, his voice sounded too happy, but his arms were so tight, as if he wanted to rub Chu Qiao into his body ! Chu Qiao's head was pressed on his chest by him, through his strong chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, recalling everything that happened before, Chu Qiao's vision suddenly blurred, after escaping from the dead, some emotions were The raging rush in her chest made her feel a little carried away for a moment.She even opened her arms, hugged Zhuge Yue's waist, buried her head in his arms, and let the tears flow down wantonly. The audience was silent, and the wind was blowing the flag, whistling. All the people raised their heads and looked up at Rose Square. Three hundred years ago, this square became famous all over the world for the first time. On that high copper platform, the first heinous traitor to the empire, He Lanye, was burned to death. As the highest officer of the Hongchuan Plateau back then, he personally watched the Hongchuan Plateau being occupied by the Zhao clan without making any effective counterattacks. Even when the Zhao clan's wolf soldiers attacked Zhenhuang, he brought his family Abandoned the city and fled overnight, lost Datang's northern barrier, discarded tens of thousands of kilometers of land, made Datang retreat to the Bianshu Plain, made the sole ruler of the mainland a history, and opened the prelude to the disintegration of Datang. Under the threat of the Xia and Song Dynasties, the name was changed to Bian Tang, which wrote the greatest shame in history. Starting from him, Tongque Terrace on Rose Square became the place where criminals were executed.At this moment, the blood-stained woman was tied up on a high copper platform, her clothes were torn, her black hair was flying, her face was covered with blood, and her original face could not be seen clearly. At her feet was a huge pile of firewood, with soldiers standing on one side holding torches.It's been a long time, and there was a small commotion just now. Some people tried to save people. Those people looked like ordinary people, but those with a keen sense of smell discovered that they all had hidden weapons. The noise became louder and louder, and countless people waved their arms and shouted loudly.Zhao Chun'er opened her weak eyes, struggled and shouted several times but only got a few loud slaps on the face, those rude soldiers had rough calluses on their hands, and it was a severe pain when they hit their faces, and the one who said no The shame and anger almost drowned her whole body. A dislocated jaw prevented her from shouting a word.Her eyelashes were smeared with blood, and she could only look down through her blood-red eyes. There were excited crowds everywhere, strange faces everywhere, and angry expressions everywhere. She was suddenly so frightened that she trembled with fear. Are you going to die?To be burned? At this time, a name suddenly slipped into her mind like lightning, and the woman's sharp eyes, cold words, and disdainful expression swept her heart like a fire. Chu Qiao!Chu Qiao!Chu Qiao! The expression gradually became ferocious, such hatred, destroying the world, wreaking havoc on everything, even going up to Qiongbi and down to Huangquan can't reduce it by half. It was she who robbed her lover, took away her own happiness, subverted her own country, violated her own dignity, and caused her to be homeless, suffer all kinds of suffering, and be despised by those despicable, despicable, and despicable people. Disgusting untouchable insult! Now, it was her who caused her to die here! Can't let her go! Even if she became a ghost, even if she went down to the eighteenth floor of hell, even if she became a ghost, she would never let her go! Zhao Chun'er gritted her teeth like a ferocious ghost, she must be killed, she must be killed, she must be! "Execution!" A loud shout sounded immediately, but at this moment, there was a sudden commotion in the crowd, and it was the group of troublemakers just now! A desire to survive suddenly rose in Zhao Chun'er's heart, and she looked over with fiery eyes, but another strange thought suddenly popped up. Those who dare to rob the court at this time must have come to save Chu Qiao! She suddenly became perverted and didn't want anyone to come, she couldn't help but sneered, her voice sounded like a night owl, full of self-deprecating, didn't she, even if she was saved today, it was thanks to Chu Qiao? Seeing her crazily laughing, the people below thought she was crazy, and all pointed and discussed. The long wind howled, carrying all the sounds far away, and the densely packed Central Avenue was crowded like a flood of water. It seemed that someone was deliberately guiding the chaos here, so that people outside could not rush in. Situ Yu looked at the chaotic Central Street, frowning, and more than a dozen young Yanbei soldiers quickly approached, Zuo Tingling said in a deep voice: "Major General Situ, the Central Army has too many people, we can't rush in, even There is no way to save the girl even if I rush in." Xiao He frowned and said: "I have sent a letter to Fei Ge to inform the young master." "It's too late to notify the young master now." Situ Yu said in a deep voice, "Have you found out who those delayers are?" Zuo Tingling said: "No, they did it very secretly, but in my opinion, among the girl's friends, the one who can help at this time is either the fourth young master of the Zhuge family or Prince Li Tang." "It should be from Zhuge's family," Situ Yu nodded, "Prince Tang is still outside Central Street." "Then what should we do now? Since the Zhuge family is stalling for time, they will definitely take action." "You can't just rely on them," Situ Yu shook his head, looked at Central Avenue, suddenly raised his finger, and said, "Let's go there!" "Central Avenue?" "Yes!" Situ Yu nodded, "Let's clear the way for Prince Li Tang!" However, just as the soldiers from Yanbei rushed into the chaotic crowd, someone in the crowd suddenly yelled in horror, and in an instant, everyone raised their heads, and then showed incredible horror! Under the black clouds, on the high roof, a snow-white horse was galloping on the roof, leaping and galloping, as if walking on the ground, the man on the horse was dressed in a pine green brocade robe, with picturesque eyebrows and eyes , handsome and not like ordinary people! The horse was originally a god horse, its feet were wrapped with cloth, wherever it passed, the roof collapsed, dust was everywhere, and it was a mess.Amidst the white dust, the man's figure looked like a ghost. During a few ups and downs, the horse suddenly stood up, hissed, leaped from the sky, and landed on the grand square, followed by smoke and dust all over the sky. Rising up, countless people shouted in unison, and thousands of central army spearmen on the periphery rushed forward, holding spears in unison and pointing at the man riding alone! "Who dares to stop me?" The man's brows were raised slightly, his eyes were indifferent and cold as he slid across everyone one by one, he gave a cold shout, his voice was not very high-pitched, but it instantly made everyone terrified. "Yes...it's His Royal Highness..." In the crowd, someone trembled and said, and immediately, like a plague, everyone panicked, and the sound of bang bang was heard endlessly. The spearmen in the front row were shaking with fright, and it was unknown who led it. , throwing away the spear suddenly, and kneeling on the ground! "His Royal Highness!" "It's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" "His Royal Highness is coming!" Huge shouts rang out, no matter how daring the soldiers of the Central Army were, they did not dare to confront the Prince of Tang directly.Once the psychological defense line collapsed, these people immediately knelt down at Li Ce's feet like sheep.On the white Rose Square, countless figures were densely packed and kneeling on the ground. Ling Ran's head, which had spoken righteously before, finally hung down in awe, wishing to bury it in the soil! Li Ce was dressed in brocade clothes, his eyes were indifferent, and he didn't even look at these people. He raised his head high, looked at the bronze sparrow platform, then raised his foot, and took a steady step forward. The courtiers around Zhao Chun'er couldn't bear to see everything fall short, so they stepped forward and tried to stop her.But before the words were spoken, and everyone didn't even see Li Ce's movements clearly, they saw a silver light cut through the man's throat in an instant, and the moment they intersected with Li Ce's figure, the man fell down with his eyes wide open. With a "boom", a large cloud of smoke and dust was raised. Li Ce took out a pure white brocade handkerchief, casually wiped his blood-stained wrist, and threw it on the ground. The bright red dots on the white brocade handkerchief immediately flew away with the wind, violently flying in mid-air. No one dared to speak, no one dared to raise their heads, no one dared to make the slightest sound, and even dared not breathe. Prince Li Ce, who had always been fatuous, lecherous and unrestrained, suddenly appeared under the eyes of everyone in this way, with a huge thunderous fury, and the evil spirit on his body was enough to make fierce beasts from hundreds of miles away stay away. Facing such a person, even a soldier as rebellious as the Central Army would hardly have the slightest courage to resist. "Everyone spread out!" The road on Zhongyang Street was finally cleared, and Li Ce's entourage came rushing from a distance like a tide, all of them armed with wolf knives, their faces full of toughness.People feel chills down their spines just by looking at it. Those are the number one ruffian soldiers who are well-known throughout the continent. They have a prestigious name, but they will lose to the Central Army's imperial wolf soldiers even in a brothel fight. They belong to Li Ce's private army.At this moment, their expressions were serious, their military appearances were neat, they held sharp knives, and rushed into the crowd with resolute faces, like a sharp knife! Li Ce stood on the Bronze Sparrow Terrace, squinting at the Central Army soldier holding the torch, and said coldly, "Get lost!" The man was startled, his feet softened suddenly, and he actually rolled down the Tongque Terrace. "Sorry, I am late." When the wind blows, Li Ce's expression is unspeakable apologetic. He frowned, looking at the blood-stained woman in front of him who couldn't tell who was running, he felt that his heart was being stabbed. Seeing blood. He untied the rope from the woman, and held her in his arms. Through the misty blood stains and messy hair, Zhao Chun'er watched Li Ce walking step by step as if a god descended into the world, and the ecstasy of escaping from death instantly hit her heart. Is this person the one I want to marry? She was a little confused for a while, and her mind was a little unclear. She only knew that she was going to die, and now, the person she was going to marry came to save her. Her tears poured out immediately, and she began to cry bitterly. Li Ce frowned, picked her up by the waist, and walked down the stage. Zhao Chun'er lost her confinement and gained freedom. She hugged Li Ce's waist tightly like a wounded little beast, her body trembling. However, the next second, the man who had experienced the wind and moon stopped in his tracks. He looked at her, as if he was a little stunned. Then, he squatted down, half-embraced her in his arms, stretched out his fingers, and gently teased her. Despite her long black hair, but there is still so much blood. He was so gentle, as if he was afraid of scaring anyone, his tone was like a lake in March, and he asked softly, "You? Who are you?" Zhao Chun'er made an ahh sound, but couldn't speak. Only then did Li Ce realize that her jaw was dislocated, and he didn't know what technique he used, but with a click, Zhao Chun'er's jaw immediately returned to its place.The woman's tears were like a fountain, and great sadness rose from the bottom of her heart. She cried and said: "I am the eighth princess of Daxia, and I am Zhao Chun'er." Li Ce was stunned. He raised his head and looked down. The wolf soldiers were confronting the Central Army. Looking at him, there are thick dark clouds in the sky, and strong winds are raging everywhere. Li Ce suddenly laughed, his smile was so gentle, he lowered his head, looked at Zhao Chun'er, and said something that Zhao Chun'er couldn't understand: "I knew who could bully her." Then, just hearing a "bang", the prince of the Tang Dynasty stood up at once, completely ignoring that there was still a flowery princess in his arms, and let Zhao Chun'er roll on the ground like a ball. He even stepped directly over Zhao Chun'er's body, and strode towards the two armies that were confronting each other.Waving his arms exaggeratedly, he shouted at the soldiers of the Central Army: "Don't get excited, don't get excited, everyone calm down." In the blink of an eye, he turned into that bastard prince who talked nonsense again. Standing in front of the wolf soldiers, he smiled foolishly: "I heard that you have something important to do, so I'll come to join in the fun, and I'll invite them to watch it together, you guys Don't worry about it, keep going, keep going!" And the 50,000 wolf soldiers behind him, seeing the change in the master's expression, instantly relaxed, and immediately resumed their usual virtues.All of them slung their shoulders and slung their backs, there was no formation at all, as if what everyone saw just now was an illusion. They walked up cheerfully, patted the Central Army on the shoulder, blinked and said, "How is it, buddy, the formation we just had is very exciting, we have been practicing for several months, haha, are you still walking?" The audience was in an uproar, and some soldiers ran to Zhao Chun'er, who had fallen to the ground. The woman raised her head and cried out in grief and indignation: "I am Princess Daxia!" The Daxia officials suddenly heard the princess's voice, and they were startled. Qi Qi ran forward, and after a while, the whole audience was in chaos. Zhao Chun'er was helped up by the officials of the Great Xia, and through the crowds, she only saw Li Cezheng and the soldiers happily mingling together, laughing exaggeratedly without image, hooking shoulders and backs without any trace of a prince. look. Thinking of his actions just now, and that sentence, everything is like a sharp arrow shot into Zhao Chun'er's heart.She allowed her subordinates to wrap her in a blanket, biting her lower lip tightly with her teeth, almost bleeding from the bite. Chu Qiao, Chu Qiao, how can I not hate you? The grief and indignation in her chest almost crushed her for a moment, her tears had already dried up, she slowly raised her head, looked at the dark clouds above, but she didn't even have the strength to yell. Zhao Chun'er swears here today that in this life, I will see with my own eyes the betrayal of your relatives, the loss of everything, and the miserable death of you. I, I swear not to be human! The long wind howled, this farce finally came to an end slowly, the chaotic crowd gradually went away, who else would cast a glance on that unclean princess? "God is fair." On the way back, Li Ce rode on the war horse, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Whoever counts people counts people. Who can decide who will win the battle before the end?" "Your Highness," Sun Di stepped forward and said, "I found Tieyou." "how is he?" "He was seriously injured, but not fatal. The soldiers of the Central Army have not lost their heads yet." Li Ce nodded and said, "Fortunately, they saved me again." "Zhao Chun'er..." "Don't worry about it," Li Ce sneered, "She caused such a big mess, let's wait and see how Daxia ends." Sun Di nodded and said, "Then what should we do now?" A cold light flashed across Li Ce's eyes, like a sharp knife, he lowered his head seemingly casually, and smiled softly: "Other people gave me such a big gift, it's not rude to come and go, I always I don't want to accept this kind of nameless kindness." A long wind blows, the man's voice is so soft, but it seems so cold. "It's my turn to act."
