Volume 2: Storms and clouds surging, thousands of miles south of the Yangtze River Chapter 258: Zhou Yong, Secretary of Jing'an
The strong liquor under his feet has begun to burn, but the temperature is not high enough to burn anyone to death. But for Jiang Ning, this kind of fire is enough.
Jiang Ning put his sore left arm under the armpit of his right arm, jerked it violently, and extinguished the fire. It was difficult to move his right hand, but he still grabbed the dagger on the ground and ran towards Zhang Heng.
"I want to tear you apart, my Cao...your...eighth generation ancestor..."
Zhang Heng regained some clarity, but this clarity came from the pain in his chest. He could vaguely see the white bones in his chest, and the white and red liquid that was flowing out.
"Ah..." Jiang Ning roared, and stabbed Zhang Heng in the neck with one knife, followed by the second knife, and the third knife...
"I want……"
Zhang Heng grabbed Jiang Ning's leg with his right hand, his face distorted in the firelight, and he finally couldn't move anymore.
"Ah...Jiang Ning, Jiang Ning..."
Jiang Ning pulled out the dagger, cut Zhang Yi's throat, wiped the blood on the dagger, and walked towards the room with the light on at the door.
Opening the door, Lu Yutong was only wearing a tube top and underwear, with her arms and thighs exposed. She was curled up at the foot of the bed, with tears streaming down her face. When she saw Jiang Ning pushing the door open, she cried even louder.
She is Princess Changping, the sister of the Emperor of the Xia Dynasty, but...
Chastity is the most important thing for women in this era. Even if it is stripped naked and looked at, it will not work. Unless the person who looks at it dies, it will be a lifetime of pain for the woman.
When she woke up, she was already tied to the bed. The bed smelled of dampness and a bit of sourness. She thought they were from the capital, but later she found out that they were not, they were bandits with no humanity.
The Huben army guards the city gate. Inside the city are soldiers from the Prefect's Mansion and the General's Mansion. There are three thousand if not five thousand. Why are these bandits wearing the clothes of the General's Mansion?
She originally wanted to negotiate with any amount of gold and silver, but when she saw the look of the big man who should be executed with a thousand cuts and execution, she knew that no amount of gold and silver would be of any use. She resisted and faced the wall.
He bumped into it, and even if he died, he couldn't succeed, but he hit a wall of flesh.
Wall, or will die today, pity her sisters, pity her brother, those traitors will laugh, she is not willing to give in, she can change the entire empire, but she did not expect to be humiliated here, she stood in the pyramid before
The top is now in the forehead and nose hell, and all thoughts are lost.
Too many people flashed through my mind and I thought about too many things.
After all, he is still a poor person...
When she heard the words "Boy, your sister-in-law and Gouzi are dead...", she didn't know what happened. At this time, she couldn't think of anyone who could come to save her. Jiang Ning...
Jiang Ning was standing in front of her now, and the last trace of stubbornness collapsed at this moment.
"Shut up, stop crying, can you still leave?" Jiang Ning shouted angrily, with a fierce look. He would not care about the status and identity of the person in front of him at this time, let alone whether she was a boy or a girl.
Lu Yutong was shocked by Jiang Ning's words and didn't know what to say.
Jiang Ning walked to the bed and said word by word: "Can I still go..."
The Jiang Ning in front of him was covered in blood, his eyes were red, his right arm was hanging down, the sleeve of his left arm had been burned to ashes, exposing his arm burned by the fire, his left hand was dripping with blood, and his hair was wet. He was a
What kind of struggles have scholars gone through?
"able……"
"Why don't you leave quickly and wait for the people behind to collect the body?"
Lu Yutong put on her clothes, stretched out her hand, then retracted it, finally gritted her teeth and supported Jiang Ning who was about to fall.
Jiang Ning kicked down the wine jar in the corner. The matter was not over yet, and he could not rest yet. Jiang Ning reminded himself, who is behind this? Someone from the imperial court? He would not use such a dirty trick and find a few good people to replace him.
Isn’t it enough to wear clothes? They don’t belong to the imperial court.
If someone had captured Lu Yutong and killed him directly, would they still be willing to do so? The four families of Yang, He, Sun, and Han? It’s unlikely. Even if they robbed a business by mistake a year ago, they wouldn’t kill anyone and silence them.
, and it was still at Liu Sisi’s home.
Who else could it be? Who else could it be? Qiao Yongle? The son of a prefect and a third-rank official, he is not afraid of things coming to light? It's like there is a pair of eyes staring at you in the dark, seeing your every move clearly. Zhang Heng
The Zhang Yi brothers have a clear goal: to kidnap Lu Yutong and kill him. Who has a blood feud with him and wants to kill him quickly?
The cobra lurking in the darkness must be caught. As long as he lives for a day, it will be like a thorn on the back. He hates this feeling the most. He has felt it too much before.
Lu Yutong didn't speak. She watched Jiang Ning finish all this. Her mind was blank now. Whatever Jiang Ning said, she would do what she instinctively did, light a fire, and burn down the house...
Lu Yutong helped Jiang Ning out of the door. A fire was already burning in the yard behind him, which looked particularly dazzling in the dark night. In front of him was a not very wide river, flowing down the river. This was a river outside Hangzhou.
On the hill, this cabin is located in the cypress mountain forest. Although the bamboos are yellowed, they are still hanging on the bamboo poles.
"Where are you going?" Lu Yutong followed Jiang Ning, disheveled, watching Jiang Ning walk towards the stone bridge.
"If you want to leave, just leave. If you don't want to leave, don't waste words..." Jiang Ning obviously didn't have much patience with Lu Yutong: "This is the battlefield. There is only life and death on the battlefield. There is no hierarchy. All human lives are the same.
Yes, no one is more valuable than anyone else."
Lu Yutong was very aggrieved. She had never been aggrieved before. She had always been the one to educate others. Regardless of her talent or status, she was a leader among the royal relatives. That's why her brother, who was an official, was so fond of her. Even if he was an official,
She didn't dare to reprimand her like this, but now Jiang Ning reprimanded her just like reprimanding a child, showing no mercy. She didn't know what Jiang Ning was going to do, but Jiang Ning knew everything about what he had just experienced.
But she still went up to the wilderness, and she didn't know how to go back, or in other words, how to survive.
Jiang Ning took two steps, and a strong feeling of nausea surged through his body. He vomited out with a loud sound, and the flesh and blood in his mouth, mixed with bile, spurted out all over the floor.
"Damn, you're such a waste..." Jiang Ning cursed.
He casually pulled down the bamboo leaves and pine and cypress branches from the bamboo poles around him, put them in his mouth and chewed them, and then suppressed the feeling of vomiting.
His physical strength has been exhausted, and Jiang Ning doesn't know how long he can hold on, but he will hold on.
Jiang Ning leaned under a thick pine tree surrounded by two people, looking at the canopy above his head. His eyes were under the moonlight, taking advantage of the firelight on the opposite side to watch every move in front. Under his feet were vomit and chewed branches, bamboo
leaf.
Lu Yutong squatted beside him and watched everything around him closely. At this time, his mood had eased a lot.
"Quack..." Several crows not far away flapped their wings and flew into the sky.
Birds don't enter the forest.
Jiang Ning reached out and grabbed the dagger stained with four lives from the ground. Lu Yutong covered her mouth, fearing that she would make a sound. She had seen a lot of punishments in the palace, but what she experienced today, those in the palace, were nothing more than
