Chapter 31 Chapter Thirty-One
Bafanglou is a restaurant, which is the usual choice of Ganzhou gentry and rich merchants to negotiate business.The tribal leaders in Ganzhou are not as powerful as the officials in the Central Plains, and their style is relatively simple. Although Su Erman and Hu Laowen use this place as a place for daily meetings and business discussions, it is only a long-term decision. A private room did not stop the business of others, occupying the entire Bafang Building, not to mention that the Bafang Building was originally opened by Aguli's tribe, even if they wanted to occupy it, they had to be careful about Aguli, this woman is more protective.
It's not mealtime now, and because of Aguli's disappearance in the past two days, there are warriors galloping around in and out of the city to search for her whereabouts, so everyone tries not to go out, so as not to cause trouble for no reason, so there are not many guests in Bafanglou .
When Su Erman arrived, Hu Laowen had already arrived. Hu Laowen sat downstairs drinking tea, and was not in a hurry to go upstairs. Hearing the news of Suerman's arrival, Hu Laowen immediately went out to greet him.
"Brother Suleman."
"Brother Hu, old Wen."
The two met under the lintel, went forward as usual, and gave a hug with wide smiles.With murderous intent already in his heart, the way he looked at the other party was a little different from before, and his movements were also a little stiff.It's just that both of them had ghosts in their hearts, so they only thought it was caused by their own psychological reasons. No one thought that the other party chose to do it today by coincidence.
What they didn't expect was that the other party chose to attack at this gate, because once entering the restaurant, although there may not be no chance of killing the other party, but they did not take advantage of the killer's absconding. In the box, they couldn't get rid of the suspicion of murder, so in front of the public, it was their best choice to do it at the door of the restaurant, where people come and go and where it is easiest to hide their whereabouts.
The two of them chattered, turned their arms around, and when they were about to step into the gate of the Bafang Building, a cold arrow shot from across the street, directly hitting Suleman's back.The cold arrow is silent, and its accuracy is unquestionable, but the sky does not obey people's wishes. At this time, a carriage drove up on the street, and the cold arrow went straight into the horse's ear. The healthy horse neighed in pain, stood upright on its back, and threw the groom to the ground , The groom cried out in pain.
The screams startled Suleman, who was about to step into the gate. Looking back, Suleman couldn't help being surprised, and immediately pressed the handle of the knife.At the same time, several of his guards were already standing in front of him, looking around vigilantly.
Of course Hu Laowen's method is not limited to this, when an arrow misses, a few passers-by who push carts selling fruit by the side of the road, sell jewelry and headgear at the side of the steps, and walk leisurely on the road all pull out their sharp knives at the same time and shoot at Su. Erman rushed over, and in the restaurant, a table of diners overturned the table, drew out a sharp saber and rushed over, the blade was as sharp as a sword, injuring several guards in an instant, and surrounded Suerman.
Before Suleman set off, he had already arranged for an assassin, but he came only after receiving the invitation from Hu Laowen. It was impossible to predict whether he would meet Hu Laowen at the door, so although he chose the same place, the time But it was set at the moment when he left Bafang Building.According to past practice, Hu Laowen would leave at the same time as him, and that would be the time for his men to act. Therefore, although his men had rushed to the scene before him and arranged them skillfully, they were not ready to act immediately Hu Laowen's sudden attack, not only the guards around Suerman were unprepared, but also the killer who had already ambushed in the left near fell into panic and couldn't react for a while.
As a result, the steel knife whistled and the murderous aura filled the court, and Suleman fell into a certain death situation in an instant.
"Myself? How can I save my people?" "I will give you what you want, and you will give me what I want. Your people are also my people. I will be responsible for their safety." "What does the king want?" "I want your loyalty, absolute obedience and loyalty." "..." "What? In order to keep your people, you don't even hesitate to sacrifice your own body, but you are stingy in offering your loyalty?" "Aguli... just don't understand, how should I pledge my allegiance to the king?" "Ali doesn't know my identity. He came here this time to follow you. Then there must be his eyes and ears by your side. You hate Ye Luohe to the bone, and you are the enemy of his father and son. If you have the opportunity to kill Of course he won't let you go. But as Ye Luohe's eldest son, and as a very important person around Ye Luohe, he will definitely not compete with Shang Boqian when Ye Luohe is fighting fiercely. , ran all the way back to Ganzhou, just to kill you." "Your Majesty, do you mean...?" "That's right, there must be greater interests for him to come. As expected, someone in your tribe has already colluded with him. This person's status and existing power are definitely not low, except After losing you, this person still has the hope of gaining more power, otherwise, Ali will not cross the Qilian Mountains and venture back to Ganzhou." "Who could this person be?" "You don't even know, so how do I know? All I know is that there should be nothing suspicious about Su Erman. Even if he wouldn't blame the death of his two sons on Ye Luohe's murder with a borrowed knife, it's just because of his relationship with Li Jiyun. Collusion, you will never take the line of Ali again. However, if you want to know who that person is, it is actually very easy." "Ali came to kill you. That person must know the inside story. Now that Ali and his people are dead, if you also disappear and your whereabouts are unknown, will this person just pretend nothing happened and wait for the situation to change? Absolutely not, he will Be prepared for the opportunity to be revealed, and use this opportunity to seize power, no matter what, he will definitely take action, we just need to wait and see what happens, and wait for him to show his feet." "But..., if there is such a person, what actions will he take? If...causing chaos in Ganzhou, fighting among the tribes, a mass of corruption, even... even if I reappear, I'm afraid I won't be able to clean up the situation gone." "If you are worried about such consequences, you should be ruthless and find a way to actively control the development of the situation in your hands, dig out the traitors, and wash the scourge with blood. Only in this way can you save your innocent people." "I... what should I do?" "Hehe, is this the heroine Mrs. Aguli, who is like a tiger and a horse like a dragon on the battlefield? I am really relieved of you now. You... are not worthy of a hero at all. After this incident, take care of the 200,000 people in Ganzhou You can rest assured that you can leave the responsibility to this king, as for you, you should let go of the responsibility that you can't bear, and be a normal woman obediently." Thinking of the conversation in the underground treasure house of Heishui City, and the experience of meeting him naked, being rejected for devotion, and being teased and reprimanded by him, Aguli's pretty face instantly became hot again.But the feeling of embarrassment had just arisen, and then she remembered Yang Hao's instructions to her, and couldn't help but feel confused. For Su Erman and Hu Laowen, she was really sad and disappointed, but according to her temperament, she would rather fight with them in a grand manner, even if she died in battle, it would be hearty, but according to Yang Hao's method... … She sighed softly, she had no way out, in the underground treasure house of Heishui City, what she was destroyed by Yang Hao was not only a woman's shame and self-esteem, but also the self-confidence and courage of a superior person, she kept going Consolingly comforting herself, she agreed to Yang Hao to do so, entirely to avoid greater fights and vendettas among her clansmen, and to keep losses to a minimum. Not just a subject's submission to the king, but also a woman's submission to a man. Ever since she was a child, she has never felt like this. She is like an unruly wild horse, and she instinctively resents being controlled and controlled, even when facing profuse sweat.But when her hard shell was shattered and her most tender essence was fully exposed to this man, her heart and her body fell at the same time. She felt that she even liked this feeling: being overwhelmed by him On it, it is driven and controlled by him. "Let me be your khan, the battle flags flying like clouds, iron spears as many as forests, brave warriors follow me, over mountains, across grasslands... The blue sky is my tent, I am the sun in the sky, and you , my beautiful bride, is the bright moonlight of that night. Only in your gentle embrace, I am willing to put down my bow and shield, and let you soothe my physical and mental exhaustion and trauma..." Before she knew it, she hummed a song again. She liked to sing since she was a child, but since her parents passed away, she put down the shepherd's whip early and became the head of the clan when she was young, she never sang again. If humming in the bottom of my heart doesn't count.Let go of her lark-like singing voice again, under the ruins of Heishui City, when she thought she would die and was about to unload heavy responsibilities to meet her long-lost parents. At this time, she subconsciously hummed the song again, and when she hummed the song, she unconsciously imagined the image of her father holding a bow, holding a spear, and holding a large shield in his hand, but the image of her father in her childhood was still in her memory. It was already a little blurry, and unconsciously, the image gradually corrected and became Yang Hao's appearance. When she sang about the beautiful bride, a figure wearing full makeup and sitting in a felt tent suddenly flashed in her mind, The blushing and happy girl, the girl bowed her head gracefully, and gently twisted her skirt.Her khan strode in with a whip in his hand, and gently lifted the girl's sharp and pretty chin with the tip of the whip... The singing stopped abruptly, and Aguli suddenly felt a little scared. She felt as if a demon had quietly occupied her heart.
In Yang Hao's room, Zhu Yun was softly reporting what had happened. "My lord, it seems that Su Erman has also thought about dealing with Hu Laowen. When the cold arrow was shot, I startled a horse and blocked Su Erman's arrow. Xiao Yi secretly used his hands and feet to hold him back. At this time, there are many people pretending to be ordinary passers-by in the surrounding area who suddenly attacked and killed Old Wen Hu." "Hmph! Both of them are not good people. What happened next?" "Later, the assassin arranged by Aguli arrived in time, and it was difficult to distinguish the enemy from the melee of the three parties. Xiaoyi secretly assisted Aguli's men to kill Hu Laowen, and then assisted them to escape safely. I found out a few survivors of Hu Laowen’s subordinates, asked about the identity of the assassin, and got a confession, and now I’m joining forces with Su Erman to search Hu Laowen’s mansion and search for his family.” "What about Xiao Yi?" "Xiao Yi is following Su Erman to prevent him from making any changes. I have been following Hu Laowen's mansion before returning. Someone in Hu Laowen's mansion has already been informed and fled and returned to their tribe. I believe it will not be long. Hu's old Wenbu will return to Ganzhou and ask Suerman for the crime." "Yeah!" Yang Hao nodded lightly: "Very good, in this way, Aguli can show up in time. Tomorrow morning, you escort her away, let Suleman be the emperor for a few days, Ganzhou will be chaotic first A few days ago, you accompanied Aguli and led her troops back to Ganzhou with the troops transferred from Suzhou by Gan Zhangpu. This time, I want to draw out all the rebel forces in Ganzhou. Ganzhou is far away from me in Xingzhou, and there are Liangzhou and Lingzhou in the middle. The nobles of the Tuoba clan that I am dissatisfied with have contacted. The most important purpose of letting Agulixu and the snake is to use Suleman to draw out the great disaster hidden in the Tuoba clan.Therefore, Suleman must be allowed to live, to live happily and smoothly, haha..." "Yes, the king has already ordered, Zhu Yun knows how to measure." Zhu Yun smiled lightly, and said again: "Actually, the king didn't have to let Aguli send people to assassinate, her people are all heroes who are used to charging into battle on horseback, and they are not good at the delicate kung fu of tossing and turning, killing a Dendrobium It’s just Old Wen, Xiao Yi and I can do it easily, but asking her to send someone would get in the way, in fact, it’s really easy for me to kill Old Wen Hu, but it took a lot of effort to cover the assassin sent by Aguli to leave.” Yang Hao shook his head and smiled, "That's different. Aguli must participate in it. This is called a nomination certificate, understand? Originally, I wanted to send the shadow guards to take action. Although their arts are also extraordinary, I didn't want to reveal the slightest It is still difficult to complete this matter in a trace, but thanks to the two of you who came in time, this problem was easily solved." Speaking of this, he straightened his face and said solemnly: "Zhu Yun, this time, you and Xiaoyi captured Brother Tuoba Hanchan alive in front of the two armies, and made a great contribution. Before you left, I once said that as long as I can do it, whatever you want, I will not refuse. You are not joking, now is the time for me to fulfill my promise, what you want, you can say." Aguli hesitated for a moment, hesitated to speak, and blushed a little. Seeing her unspeakable expression, Yang Hao couldn't help but wondered: "If you have done something wrong, you will be punished, and if you have meritorious service, you will be rewarded. Rewards and punishments have always been the basis of my employment. You have made a lot of contributions, and it is only right and proper to give you a generous reward." , what's the matter?" "I... Actually... So what..." Yang Hao couldn't help laughing: "Tell me, your temper, when have you been so hesitant? Just say what you want." "I...I..." Zhu Yun groaned for a long while, then said coyly: "I haven't made up my mind yet, or... or I'll wait until I get back to Xingzhou, and... talk to my father and let him help let me see." What she said was exactly what Yang Hao wanted, and Yang Hao laughed and said, "Sure, then I will fulfill the promise I made to you when I return to Ganzhou. Hehe, you go and order the cook to pack some food and drink. When Xiaoyi comes back, let’s chat and have a good meal tonight. Alas, since you went to Bianliang until today, the three of us get together less and leave more, but it’s been a long time since we sat together and chatted. I miss it very much. That snowy night and cold winter where you counted the stars." Zhu Yun blushed with embarrassment when he told her about her embarrassment, she quickly agreed and escaped.
"Myself? How can I save my people?" "I will give you what you want, and you will give me what I want. Your people are also my people. I will be responsible for their safety." "What does the king want?" "I want your loyalty, absolute obedience and loyalty." "..." "What? In order to keep your people, you don't even hesitate to sacrifice your own body, but you are stingy in offering your loyalty?"
