Chapter 212 Chapter Thirty-Nine

Chapter Thirty-Nine It took two months for the public to sit, and the prime minister based on the Xiangyang incident, and ordered the Ministry of Criminal Justice to preside over the trial. The public argued frankly, and all the officials were speechless.Shangxiang was troubled, and turned to falsely accuse the eldest son of the father-in-law Yun to plan to rescue his father. Respond to it, and avoid the pain." Yun said angrily, "Death is death, how can I leave a stigma in the world." If the prison fails, all the generals of the public ministry will be ordered to appease the hearts of the army, and they will write a letter to protect him. Only Yu Mian heard that the public was in jail, and he raised troops to rescue him, but he was blocked in Jiangling.Shang Xiang blamed the public for this, and the public wrote a letter to persuade him. After Yu Mian got the book, he retreated sadly.

Ning Qian, the curtain guest, heard this, and advised Shang Xiang, saying: "The general is here, and all the generals rely on him. When the general is dead, all the generals and their families are in the south of the Yangtze River, and there is no leader. How dare you rebel." Advise him: "It's easy to capture a tiger, but it's hard to run a tiger. Since the enemy has become an enemy, it cannot be forgiven. Otherwise, my father and son will die without a place to bury them." Shang Xiangnaijue, entered the palace late at night to ask for a secret edict, but the lord of the country didn't notice, and promised him, he gave the father death with poisoned wine. He was thirty-five years old, and everyone in the country who heard about it mourned, and there were countless people who served filial piety and private sacrifices.

——"The History of Chu in the Southern Dynasties.Zhongwu Gongzhuan On December 7th, the wind and snow fell, and the winter in the south of the Yangtze River was even colder this year. Jianye City was bleak. There are several pavilions, towers and pavilions, but most of them are dilapidated houses that are ventilated everywhere. The cold wind of winter is raging inside, even if a blazing stove is lit, the biting cold cannot be driven back. In one of the widest pavilions, it is equally cold and gloomy, but there is not even a brazier. The cold wind blows in through the gaps in the wooden boards, making the room like an ice cave, but the man who lives here is Unconsciously, although he was only wearing a gray half-worn cotton robe, the biting cold didn't seem to make him shrink back a little.And he was still wearing shackles and shackles weighing more than ten kilograms. With a slight movement, there was a clanging sound, and there were red, swollen scars on his wrists and ankles. Seeing snow flakes drifting into the room from the broken window lattice, the man suddenly smiled, walked to the window, stretched out his hand to push open the two broken windows, and looked at the abandoned garden indifferently.Let the flying snow blow towards your face, seeping into your clothes and hairline.When he opened the window to watch the snow, countless eyes were fixed on him, and the vigilance disappeared from those eyes only when he realized that he hadn't moved.

At this time, someone coughed lightly from outside the door, and then an old man in purple pushed the door in. Behind him was a scholar in blue, holding a food box in one hand and a wine jar in the other.The man was still looking out the window, not caring who it was.Seeing this, the purple-clothed old man felt admiration in his heart. If an ordinary person were imprisoned in this kind of place for more than a month, he would probably be dying. What's more, this person was originally the honor of a great general, even if he was not rich and well-clothed, how could he have suffered such pain before? , but this person is still strong, never heard him say a bitter word, and never saw him speak ill of others.If it wasn't for Xiangye's instruction, I'm afraid I wouldn't want to torture him like this.The scholar looked at the man who was watching the snow by the window, with a complicated look in his eyes, he put the food box in his hand aside, took out a sumptuous meal from it, then took out an exquisite silver jug, and a wine glass, poured Put a full glass on the table.The old man in purple said respectfully: "General, please have a meal."

Lu Can turned around. Although several months of captivity had made him thin and sickly, his eyes were still piercing, without the sadness of a hero's end.He glanced at the bountiful food and wine, his eyes flicked over the face of the unfamiliar scholar in Tsing Yi, and said with a smile: "Mr. Ou came to deliver the food and wine in person today, which is different from usual, it's not the cold prison food, presumably Shang Xiang already has it." Make a decision, today is the time for Lu to die." Ou Ning, the old man in purple, showed embarrassment on his face. Since Lu Can was imprisoned, he had also been tortured to extract a confession. Lu Yun forced a confession.However, Shang Weijun is also vicious in his mind. He knows that for people with high positions like Lu Can, some quiet humiliation can weaken his will. Although it may not be able to force Lu Can to submit, it can humiliate this always strong The clanging enemy was also satisfied, but it was a pity that things backfired. Although Lu Can suffered a lot, except for his eyes becoming more indifferent, he didn't have the slightest intention of giving in.

Ou Ning sighed softly, feeling uneasy in his heart, and said: "The general's eyes are like a torch, the lord has issued an order, today is the day of the general's death, and after an hour, the death edict will be delivered, the minister has Commander, the general is an important minister of the imperial court, and he should not be taken lightly before leaving, so I ordered you to buy wine to send him off." There was no expression of shock and anger on Lu Can's face, he looked at Song Yue and said, "Who are you? Why are you here?" Song Yu was taken aback, but he didn't expect Lu Can to be angry when he heard that the deadline was approaching. Instead, he was interested in asking about his own background, and he stepped forward and said, "Song Yu, a grass-roots man, is a close friend of Mr. Shang Xiang. He heard that the general is going to , so I came to see him off, and even though the general was imprisoned, I don’t know how many people in Jianye City wanted to rescue the general. In the past, the situation was uncertain, and these people did not dare to do it easily. Fearing that some people will come to rob the prison knowing that the situation is unstoppable, so I asked Senior Ou to come and set up an ambush. Although the grassroots people are mediocre in martial arts, they are fortunate to be appreciated by Shang Xiang and Senior Ou, so they came here as ordered."

Ou Ning frowned. Although what Song Yue said was true, Shang Weijun added many experts to guard Qiao's Garden because he was worried about someone robbing the prison. It was precisely for this reason that Song Yue came here, but But you don't have to be outspoken, just speak up. After hearing this, Lu Can felt that Song Yue was straightforward and unrestrained, and said with a smile, "If that's the case, you can have a few drinks with Lu and wait for the edict to come." Song Yue looked at Ou Ning, and Ou Ning said in his heart, Song Yue's kung fu is excellent, with him here, even if there is any accident, he can kill Lu Can first, and he still needs to arrange the defense in the garden. After all, it is an outsider, it is difficult to trust, it is better to inspect it yourself.Thinking of this, he said with a smile: "Since the general has such a passion, Song Yue should follow his orders." After saying that, he took out the key and removed the shackles for Lu Can himself, and said, "Please drink slowly, the general, I will go down first." After giving Song Yu a wink, Song Yu nodded slightly, and Ou Ning turned around and walked out.

After getting rid of the shackles, Lu Can felt much more relaxed. He walked to the table and raised the glass of wine, drank it in one gulp, and said, "Good wine, please sit down too. You can't drink without a partner, it's too lonely to be alone." Song Yu glanced at the room, took a chipped teacup over, and when the glass was full, filled another glass for Lu Can, raised his glass and said, "If you can get the wine from the general, the grass people will be honored." drink up. Lu Can smiled slightly, sipped the wine, smiled calmly, and slowly asked about Song Yue's life experience, but Song Yue didn't hide it, except that he never leaked the fact that he belonged to the secret camp, and he even talked about the fact that he was a killer talk.But in just a few words, Song Yu felt that the general in front of him was amiable and sincere, making people feel like a spring breeze, like drinking alcohol, but Lu Can also felt that although this young man often had an angry and depressed expression, he was also extremely talented , Asked about the military strategy, his words were quite insightful, and his character and demeanor had merits. He couldn't help persuading him: "Mr. Prime Minister thinks highly of him, he should serve the country by serving in the army, and Prime Minister would agree if he thinks about it.”

Surprise flashed in Song Yu's eyes, and he said, "The general was framed by the minister, and the lord issued an edict to kill him. Could it be that he didn't even complain at all, and even persuaded the grassroots to serve the country?" Lu Can said indifferently: "I'm not a sage, so how can I have no grievances, but grievances are grievances, and Lu's dedication to serving the country has not changed a little bit. After I die, the minister will definitely crowd out and suppress Lu's old department. I see that Mr. Song is very angry." If you have a great talent and are trusted by you, if you can lead the army into battle, it will be a blessing to the country and the soldiers." After speaking, the words changed, but he talked about some of his experience in leading the army in the past.

Song Yue was more and more amazed, thinking that he had inherited Jiang Zhe's order, and had made several threats against him. He couldn't escape the blame for this person's current situation. , Finally couldn't help prostrating in the tunnel and said: "The general is so loving, I am ashamed that I have killed the general, the crime of the grassroots is not light, why dare to listen to the teaching again." Lu Can was a little shocked when he heard the words. Although this young man was valued by Shang Weijun, he was probably not qualified to offer advice. How could he say that?

Seeing Lu Can's expression, Song Yueyue felt remorseful and opened his mouth to speak, but he remembered that even if he told this person to know, it would be just sprinkling salt on the wound. .” Lu Can's expression darkened, and he said, "In that case, you can go." He is also a person with a clear mind, and he has faintly sensed it. When he saw Song Yue walking out of the room, he smiled bitterly and raised his eyes to look out the window. At that time, the snow outside the window became more and more blurred, dancing with the wind, like an illusion and a dream, and I couldn't help but think of the past in a trance, one after another, one after another, they were all unforgettable. All of a sudden, in the blurred snow shadow, there was a ray of piano sound, and the sound of the piano was like flying snow, inextricably linked, pervasive, lonely, cold, and unpredictable. Shang Chung, shocked in his heart, walked to the window a few steps, let the snowflakes hit his face, then calmed down, and looked into the garden with piercing eyes.However, blood splashed from time to time in the vast snow and mist, like red plums blooming, and the sound of fighting, screaming, and the sound of the collision of weapons followed, disturbing the quiet snow scene. Lu Can knew that someone was coming to rob the prison, and doubts arose in his heart. All the old ministries had been strictly ordered by him not to come to Jianye to cause trouble. Who would come to rob the prison? Just as Song Yue said, he only thought it was Shang Weijun who was suspicious , Unexpectedly, someone actually robbed the prison.Listening carefully, one could feel the sound of killing coming from all directions, the attackers were well-organized, not like a mob, but the progress was difficult, obviously Shang Weijun also deployed heavy troops here, intending to catch everyone in the future.Lu Can's mind turned suddenly, and he suddenly had an ominous premonition. Could it be that someone was swaying him, trying to make all the heroes of Southern Chu die here.Only at this moment, the only way to avoid this catastrophe is to come forward and make those who came to rob the prison retreat immediately. Thinking of this, Lu Can jumped out of the window and headed towards the place where the killing sound was the loudest. At this moment, he removed the shackles. Although his vitality was seriously injured due to several months of imprisonment, he was still in good shape.Unexpectedly, just as he fell into the snow, there was a person standing in front of him, a folding fan opened and closed suddenly, blocking his way.Lu Can looked at the stern-looking Song Yu, and shouted, "Get out of the way, this general will never let me, the heroes of Southern Chu, kill each other." Although Song Yu admired Lu Can for seeing the mystery so quickly, and was not blinded by the desire to survive, he thought of the strict order he had received to keep Lu Can here, and he must not be allowed to stop this tragedy that was destined to hurt both sides. , A stern look flashed in his eyes, and he said: "The grassroots are ordered not to allow the general to leave this place. Before the emperor's edict is here, the general is invited to drink in the room. The outside things don't need the general to bother." A cold light flashed in Lu Can's eyes, and he scolded, "Are you from Chu or from Yong?" Song Yue's heart trembled, but he raised his head and said, "Song was born in Southern Chu and grew up in Southern Chu." Lu Can saw through the hidden meaning in his words, and said with a sneer, "But you don't think you are from Chu, but yes, if that's not the case, why did you stop Lu from quelling the war?" Song Yu said in his heart: "If the general goes here now, he will surely escape the evil hands. If he stays here, if someone who comes wins, the general can still survive. Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds? Why seek death?" In the past, Lu Can was not good at this kind of Jianghu martial arts. He was trapped by Song Yue and couldn't escape. The chills in his heart grew more and more, thinking that even if he sacrificed his life, he would not be able to avoid the disaster of civil strife. In the meantime, the idea of ​​desperate death grew more and more. Tens of feet away, Ou Ning stood in the snow, clasped his hands, facing the masked figure in white, sitting upright playing the piano, his eyes were about to burst.Just a moment ago, the attack came suddenly, and Ou Ning almost watched this person breaking through the crowd. Fortunately, this person seemed to be a loner, but he rushed into Qiao's Garden alone.Ou Ou Ning ordered everyone to refuse to guard, and chased him himself, unexpectedly, the man was so vicious, the more than ten guards who stayed in the garden were easily killed by this man, what is even more hateful is that this man actually sat in the snow Playing the qin, the sound of the qin is like a sharp knife, the sound seems to cut his liver and intestines, and among the dead bodies on the ground are his two disciples, who were originally youthful, but now they have died tragically before their eyes.Ou Ning wanted to make a move many times, but seeing the man in white sitting on the snow playing the piano, defenseless, but felt that the man was completely flawless, and he was not sure, so he couldn't help but feel great hatred.While thinking about who this person is, Ou Ning has never heard of such a master before, and while looking for an opportunity to make a move, his heart becomes more and more depressed, his eyes flashed, and suddenly he found that the snowflakes within a radius of Zhang Xu were following The sound of the zither was dancing, which was very different from the changes in Feixue a few meters away, and he immediately understood that the sound of the zither had formed a net to lock him up. If he didn't make a move, he would die. There was a will to die in his heart, and with a roar, Ou Ning's body surged with energy, those strange snowflakes flew in all directions, and suddenly felt the pressure on his body lightened, and without hesitation, he struck out with a palm, and rushed towards the man in white. , the snowflakes splashed, the man let out a long laugh, and stood up to meet him. A faint voice came from Ou Ning's ear and said: "The skill of the piano sound to hurt the enemy is still unfinished, it depends on you, old man!" You can take some tricks from me!" The voice didn't stop, Ou Ning felt that the man's palm was in front of his eyes, his long sleeves were fluttering, and a white right hand was hidden in the sleeve, he was about to say something, it was waiting for the person to come first This ability also surprised Ou Ning.There was a loud bang, and the two palms intersected through the sleeve of the man, and the sleeve of the man shattered like pieces of butterflies.Ou Ning only felt that the man's inner strength was illusory, and the palm seemed to hit the empty space, but the man backed away in shock, saying: "What a soft palm, it seems soft but strong, and it has nine levels of strength in one palm. A needle hidden in the cotton." Ou Ning decided in his heart that although this man's martial arts were unimaginable, he might not be much better than himself. It's just that his martial arts were weird and his movements were unpredictable, which made him feel at a loss for a while, and he was at a disadvantage. , and attacked the man again.Song Yue's voice could be heard faintly in his ears, presumably he was trying to stop Lu Can, if he missed and let this person rescue Lu Can, wouldn't it be a catastrophe.Thinking of this, he had no hesitation, and went all out to attack the man in white. This time the fight was different from just now, there was even a tie. In fact, although the man in white was better than Ou Ning in terms of realm and knowledge, Ou Ning had profound internal strength, old and strong, and the man in white wanted to win. Not an easy task.Amid the turmoil of the palm wind and fist shadow, Feixue fluttered along with it, and the figures of the two were entangled together. Except for Ou Ning's purple clothes, a shadow could still be seen, and the figure of the man in white had already blended with Feixue, regardless of each other. . In the midst of the snowy shadows, the man in white heard a patchwork of whistles in his ears. He was startled, knowing that the heroes of the rivers and lakes who attacked with him had already suffered more than half of the casualties, and he could no longer entangle with this old man. He took a deep breath, originally The figure that was rushing towards Ou Ning suddenly stopped, and with a volley of palms, flying snow rushed towards his face. Ou Ning was stunned, and saw Venus looming in the snowflakes. He tried to dodge, but he couldn't dodge it. It was in severe pain, and I stretched out my hand to touch it, only to feel blood gushing out. At this moment, a black shadow suddenly flew out from the sleeve of the man in white, like a dancing dragon, and instantly wrapped around Ou Ning's neck.Ou Ning yelled, hating the shameless scheme of the man in white, he rushed forward regardless of life and death, and slapped him. This time he tried his best, but the man in white failed to dodge completely, and the palm landed on the shoulder of the man in white .The man in white took advantage of the situation to retreat, like a meteor lightning, Ou Ning was dragged by the long whip, he felt short of breath, and was also dragged forward, the man retreated only a few feet, and he was already under a big tree.Ou Ou Ning was overjoyed, and regardless of the tightening of the whip around his neck, he tried his best to hit the man in white with his palm, but the man in white stopped abruptly, stuck to the tree trunk and went straight up, flying across the branches , falling sharply.In an instant, the movement turned into stillness, Ou Ning's tall body swayed in the wind, his limbs drooped limply, his neck was broken, and he was strangled to death on the tree in the garden. ——————————————————— The man in white coughed lightly, lifted his veil, and spit out a mouthful of blood on the snow, bright red like plum petals, he sighed: "This man is indeed a good opponent, but it's a pity that I don't have time to discuss with you, I think you must die like this I won’t be willing.” After saying that, he retracted the long whip, and Ou Ning’s body fell to the ground, stirring up snow and dust all over the sky.The man in white walked back to the original place, picked up the guqin that was almost covered by snow, and walked towards the garden without looking at the corpses lying around. Lu Can could only feel the blood surge in his chest and he was out of breath. The torment these days had made him unable to fight this young man Song Yue anymore. After more than a hundred moves, he could no longer hold on. Seeing that this young man was still in good spirits, He couldn't help sighing softly, exited the battle ring, leaned against the wall, and said: "Who are you? If you are really Shang Weijun's confidant, you should kill me now. Seeing that you have no killing intent, is it true? , you are actually a smart person." Song Yu said indifferently: "The general is overwhelmed, I'm not a clever man." He said light words, but his eyes seemed to look into the unfathomable depths through endless snow. At this moment, the man in white had already approached, his eyes flicked over Lu Can, and stayed on Song Yue for a moment. Song Yue's heart trembled, and he quietly retreated behind Lu Can. However, he knew that since this person could pretend to be the owner of the Tianji Pavilion, he must be a close friend of the master, so he couldn't help being frightened, but at this moment, it was Lu Can who could reassure him more.The man in white didn't say anything, his figure suddenly retreated, and disappeared in the snow in an instant.Suspicion flashed in Lu Can's eyes, and he looked back at Song Yu, seeing that he was a little uneasy in his silent expression, Lu Can's heart moved slightly. Outside of Qiao's Garden, apart from Shang Weijun's confidant warriors, there were also some well-dressed female swordsmen who led the crowd to stop the martyrs who came to rob the prison. , one person was dressed in rich makeup, the other was dressed in blue and plain clothes, and the sword energy was like frost. They went back and forth and attacked one side. I don't know how many people died in their hands. It was not until Ding Ming stopped the two of them with his own strength that the situation was stabilized. .Ding Ming quickly recognized the swordsmanship of these two women. Fengyimen has been in the south of the Yangtze River for several years, and Ding Ming has also seen their swordsmanship, but in today's battle, Ding Ming really saw the power of Fengyimen.The two women's swords combined, the swords are as powerful as a dragon frightening a dragon, slashing horizontally and horizontally, gorgeous and fierce, if it is not for Ding Ming who is also a master of swordsmanship, it is really hard to match. After fighting for two quarters, Ding Ming realized that his side suffered heavy casualties. If it wasn't for relying on the battle formation honed in the Wuyue battlefield, it would be really difficult to win against these wealthy hawks. Moreover, the enemy reinforcements have not yet arrived. It was due to the remoteness of Qiao's Garden, and secondly, there were many people in the imperial army who respected Lu Can, who were secretly persuaded and dissuaded by the people arranged by Ding Ming, and deliberately delayed, but if the time was too long, I am afraid they would not be able to stop the reinforcements.Just when he was anxious, a man in white came out slowly from the garden, and without seeing his movements, he floated like flying catkins, towards the back of the beautifully dressed woman, and slapped him away.The woman felt that the palm wind behind her was like a sharp blade, and she dodged with all her strength. Although she avoided the palm, she could no longer join hands with her companion. flaw.Ding Ming scolded lightly, the sword flowed like a rainbow, and blood splattered, the tender body of the woman in Tsing Yi trembled, blood soaked into her clothes in an instant, and she fell to the ground. Without hesitation, Ding Ming united his body and sword, and then flew towards the woman in the Chinese dress. When the woman in the Chinese dress saw that her companion was on the ground, she let out a cry of surprise, turned around and fled, but Ding Ming's sword was shattered, and she never left. Turning back, it actually pierced into the woman's vest.The woman in Chinese clothes let out a cry of pain, and she swung her sword backhand like lightning. Ding Ming felt the sword flash in front of his eyes, and the sword was coming towards his heart. Like Zu, it was about to pierce his heart, but it stopped abruptly, and a long black whip wrapped around the sword.Ding Ming heaved a sigh of relief, and looked along the long whip, only to see that it was the master of the Tianji Pavilion who came to rescue him.At this time, the beautiful woman's delicate body slowly fell to the ground.Ding Ming felt chills in his heart, and said in his heart, just looking at this dying sword, this woman's swordsmanship is actually not much weaker than his own, if she is willing to muster up the courage to fight him, she will never lose so quickly, Fengyimen The famous female swordsman really lives up to her reputation. Ding Ming was thinking wildly in his mind, when he heard the sound of a qin that was ripping silk in his ears, he was startled, but saw the man in white pointing at the garden, although he couldn't see his expression, he obviously showed hesitation, Ding Ming couldn't help feeling a little ashamed , and ignored the entanglement outside, followed the man in white towards the garden.Before coming, Ding Ming needed to persuade Lu Can to agree to leave Jianye with them, but he was blocked outside for a long time. Ding Ming almost forgot about this matter, hurriedly went to draw his long sword, turned and walked towards the garden. Walking, the man in white glanced, seeing that there was still a stalemate outside, and then walked into the garden. When Ding Ming walked into the garden with the man in white, the female swordsmen of Fengyimen had already seen the two leaders lying on the ground, and the two women in strong clothes left the enemies they were fighting and rushed over with their swords. The woman in the Chinese dress was already cold and breathless, but the woman in Tsing Yi just fell into a coma. After the two hurriedly wrapped her up and took medicine, the woman in Tsing Yi finally woke up slowly, and her eyes stopped on the woman in the Chinese dress. For a moment, the eyes were full of sorrow and despair.The woman pretending to be serious said in a low voice: "Miss Seven, or we should retreat quickly." The words were full of fear.The woman in Tsing Yi shook her head and said: "We have no way to turn back, first carry the body of the second sister to the side, you all go, don't let any intruders go, release the distress signal on the second sister, and call the disciples in the city to come Save each other." The female swordsman burst into tears when she heard the words, walked back to the woman in the fancy dress, took out a small ball wrapped in mulberry paper from her body, shook her wrist and threw it into the air, the small ball was shaken, and sparks flew from it. When it split, a flame shot up into the sky, turning into a colorful phoenix in mid-air, and even made a sound like a phoenix's cry, startling the cold night.The woman in Tsing Yi closed her eyes slightly, tears rolled down, and said in a low voice: "Second Sister, Third Sister, you have all gone like this, why do I have to live so hard." The cold gradually hit, and the woman in Tsing Yi's consciousness slowly Slowly dissipating, the tears have turned into two lines of frost, condensing on the cheeks like beautiful jade. Lu Can stood in the snow. Although the snow was already thick on his body, he didn't intend to wipe it off. Song Yu stood behind him, as if protecting, but also watching. Hearing the faint sound of fighting in his ears, Lu Can Feeling at a loss in his heart, knowing that it was impossible for him to stop the bloody battle in front of him, Lu Can quietly waited for the end moment, and also waited for the arrival of the death edict. As long as he stayed here, then no matter who's conspiracy, he could not It unfolded smoothly. After a while, I saw two people walking on the snow, and one of them came up and bowed down: "Ding Ming greeted the general, please follow us out of the city, there are soldiers outside the city to meet us, and the chariots and horses have been prepared. , there are guards along the way, and you can go straight to the army." Lu Can's eyes only swept over Ding Ming, but he looked at the man in white clothes, with a white veil covering his face, even his eyes were covered with a light veil, and said calmly, "Who are you, and why did you participate in this?" Something." Although the snow was blinding his eyes, Lu Can also knew that Ding Ming and others would never have broken into the garden without this person killing Ou Ning, so Fang asked the man in white what his purpose was. Ding Ming was startled, worried that the man in white would be angry, but the man in white just said indifferently: "Brother Ding and I have an old relationship, and we are begging for help, so I will help, otherwise, even if the general has contributed to the people of the country, he will not be with us What does it have to do with grassroots people in the rivers and lakes?" Lu Can felt relieved when he heard the words, and thought, if he didn't intend to save me, he wouldn't worry about his conspiracy.Turning his eyes to Ding Ming, he sighed and said, "Hero Ding, why bother so much? Lu's life or death is irrelevant, but you are the leader of the Wuyue Rebel Army. If something goes wrong, wouldn't Dinghai take advantage of it? You'd better go back to Wuyue immediately." Come on, don't get involved in these court affairs." Ding Ming said in a loud voice: "The general's words are wrong. Ding is just a man of the rivers and lakes. If I die, someone else can lead the rebel army, but if there is no general to command, how can I resist the iron cavalry of the Yong army? How can you just sit back and watch Yong's army go south and be willing to be killed by that treacherous minister." Lu Can smiled wryly and said, "Brother Ding, you have good intentions, but Lu's life or death is irrelevant. Even if I can escape from Jianye, I will become a rebel. At that time, Shang Xiang will definitely order to clean up my old department. Come on, brother Ding, do you want me to lead the army to rebel? Rather than causing civil strife and killing each other, it is better for Lu to obey the law and die. With all the righteous men who sacrificed their lives for the country, Southern Chu will be safe and sound. In a few years, there may be Those who are better than Lu can go north to the Central Plains, making it impossible for the Yong army to go south." Hearing this, Ding Ming burst into tears, and said: "The general is working for the country and the people. He is exhausted on his saddle horse and forgets to die. Today, he still thinks about the people in the community. What the traitor has done is really outrageous. If the general leaves Jianye, Avoid joining the army, and then write a letter to ask for amnesty, or you can avoid civil strife, if the general does not leave, we would rather die here than leave like this." Lu Can smiled slightly, and said: "Life and death are minor matters for a certain Lu, but the safety and security of his family and country are of great concern. The minister must have planted assassins in Lu's old department. Once Lu escapes, I'm afraid they will all be killed, and The family members of the soldiers in the army are all in the south of the river. Once Shang Xiang suspects that they are rebelling against them, their families will be ruined. How could it be Lu who killed these soldiers under his command. Brother Ding, don't say any more, you go, Lu Someone will never escape from Jianye." At this moment, the man in white said coldly: "Why bother talking nonsense, just knock him out and take him away." As soon as the words fell, Lu Can's deep eyes shot out a cold light, and his calm and calm aura instantly became cruel , that is a kind of general demeanor that can rival thousands of people, cultivated in bloody battles on the battlefield, but the expression on his face is so indifferent, standing with his hands behind his back, Lu Can said coldly: "Your Excellency, you really think that with martial arts strength Can you do whatever you want?" The man in white trembled, his eyes passed through the veil, and he focused on Lu Can's face for a moment. Seeing that his brows were full of jade pieces rather than tiles, he sighed softly and said: "The general does not want to order The civil strife in Southern Chu is just a dream. No matter what, this civil strife is inevitable. The general only needs to agree, and I will definitely take the general to leave Jianye. I can fulfill the general's wishes by escaping from the rivers and lakes. Doesn't the general think about his family? Under the overthrow of the nest, there will be no eggs. Even if the general is willing to die, Shang Weijun will never let the general go. The general's family." Lu Can's gaze was not weak at all, and although the words of the man in white were sharp, they did not leave a mark on his heart. He had thought clearly about all this ten years ago.But he didn't argue, just showed a firm and indifferent smile, and then raised his hand, the second finger in the middle of the food pierced his chest like a sharp knife, and blood gushed out. What he meant was clear. Regardless of being surprised by Lu Can's finger strength, Ding Ming got up and retreated almost immediately. He retreated more than ten steps, his eyes were full of grief, and he said in a trembling voice: "General, Ding Ming will follow orders." Lu Can stared indifferently at the man in white. The man in white's eyes shone with light. Lu Can smiled slightly and pressed his finger hard, blood gushing out. The man in white could feel Ding Ming's pleading gaze. He also knew that if he took action immediately, he might be able to To prevent Lu Can from committing suicide, but Lu Can's mind is determined. Even if he is rescued, the result will not be different. What's more, if he is allowed to die outside in the name of rebellion, it is better to let him die here. his loyalty.What's more, that person had originally said that he had to leave Lu Can with a choice.With a slight sigh, the figure of the man in white disappeared into the snow, just like when he came here without a trace. Lu Can felt relieved, knowing that the situation was finally under his control, looking at Ding Ming, he said lightly: "Brother Ding, go, don't add more casualties, don't kill each other, it will only make Yong people happy, and even more so." Pay attention to the people around you, Yong people are the best at using time, you have to be careful." Although he also wanted to warn Ding Ming to be careful about Song Yue and the man in white behind him, but he also knew that if he said it too clearly However, I am afraid that Ding Ming will not be able to give birth to Jianye. Instead of this, it is better to let him be vigilant, so as to prevent the Wuyue Rebel Army from losing its leader. Seeing Ding Ming hide his face and retreat, a zither sound suddenly came from the flying snow. The sound of the zither was mournful, with a faint meaning of farewell. Lu Can suddenly had a strange thought in his heart. He must have heard the sound of the zither before, or it was not this one The melody, but the aloofness and coldness hidden deep in the piano is generally the same. Thinking of this, I can't help laughing. I am not good at rhythm, so how can I hear the similarities and differences of the piano sounds.Pulling out his finger, letting the blood drip, and brushing off the snow on his body, Lu Can walked into the room, poured a glass of wine, raised his glass and said, "Enter the king's affairs in the world, and win the fame of life and death. It's a pity that it happened in vain. It's a pity that I If you haven't fulfilled your wish, you will be ruined. Song Yu, why don't you go together, do you think I didn't see through your disguise? If you weren't their inner support, I'm afraid that the man in white or Ding Ming would kill you first .” Song Yu said indifferently: "Why did the general make such a statement? Song was ordered to protect the general and tried to prevent the general from leaving this place. Later, it was the general who pleaded for mercy, which prevented those people from killing me. The general would not run away with his life. It's also because of Gu Nianzai's dedication to his duty, that's why he is so caring?" Lu Can couldn't help laughing when he heard it, and raised his glass regardless of the blood flow: "Well said, it's rare for you to be so intelligent and generous. Tell me, what's the relationship between you and my mentor Jiang Zhe? Only Mr. To do such a thing, to take advantage of Lu's life and death so thoroughly, you are such a talent, I am afraid that you are also a disciple of Mr. Song Yu's expression moved slightly, he looked at Lu Canlei's calm expression, and said in a low voice: "I am an unworthy disciple of the master, and I have already betrayed the sect. Thanks to the grace of the master, I never took my life. This time, I was ordered to slander and harm the general. I feel ashamed, even if the general tells the story, I don't blame the general." Lu Can frowned lightly, and said, "I hear your tone seems resentful. Could it be that you hold a grudge against Mr. But if that's the case, why did you act on his orders?" Song Yu glanced outwards, and he had seen the signal for help from Fengyi Gate just now, and knew that someone would come in to check soon, so he said in a low voice: "I have an old grudge with my husband, but I don't know it, but carefully Thinking about it, I can't blame Mr., and I have received Mr.'s kindness and great friendship from my colleagues, so I can't refuse Mr.'s order, but it hurts the general. I feel very uneasy. It’s hard to regret.” Lu Can sighed: "It's none of your business. Mister is just adding fuel to the flames. Even without his plan, it will be inevitable in a few years. It's just that I thought I could fulfill my long-cherished wish of going north to the Central Plains first, so that I can't wait to go to the Central Plains." The iron cavalry of the Yong army couldn't spy on the south of the Yangtze River. I only regret that this day came too early after all. I now understand that the master played the piano on the Gucheng that day, not to repel the enemy, but to say goodbye. Goodbye, that's what you meant, sir." At this moment, footsteps could be heard in Song Yue's ears, and he quickly coughed softly, "General, do you want to wrap your wound?" Lu Can turned his gaze and said, "Are you going to stay in Jianye from now on?" Song Yu understood in his heart, and said in a low voice: "This matter is over, I have nothing to worry about, and I will never get involved in the dispute between the North and the South." Lu Can smiled slightly, nodded and said: "That's good, I believe you are not lying, otherwise even if you are so sincere and earnest to me, I can only take your life. If I want to say a few words, Shang Weijun would rather believe it, if you see Mr. again, please say thank you for me." 宋逾低声道：“多谢大将军宽宏，若有机缘，必定转告。”正想再说些什么，眼角余光看见身影闪动，他默然不再言语。 这时候，援军已经进了园中，走在最前面的却是尚承业，他身后皆是带甲军士，想必是亲自带着援军前来乔氏废园，毕竟陆灿的生死，和他们父子的关系最是密切。在尚承业身后，便是几个绯衣内侍，手上捧着圣旨鸩酒，却是路上相逢，一并赶了过来。一眼看到陆灿坐在那里饮酒，尚承业便松了一口气，停步不前，看了一眼宋逾，眼中露出赞赏之色，示意他退出来。 宋逾掩去眼中悲色，走出房间，站到尚承业身后，只见那绯衣内侍尖声宣旨，宋逾神思不属，恍恍忽忽只听见“赐死”、“弃市”这样的字眼。然后透过洞开的房门，他便眼睁睁地看着陆灿含笑倒了一杯鸩酒，明晰温和的目光环视众人，在自己身上更是多停留了一瞬，然后不顾前胸血迹斑斑，举杯而饮。宋逾眼中一片模糊，悄悄地退了一步，只觉得自己的生命仿佛也随着陆灿自尽而逝去了一般。
