Chapter 280: It’s a shame to frame this situation
Chapter 280: Framing this situation is disappointing
The order from Ashina Duzhi was quickly passed down. The second thousand-man team that was originally preparing to attack the city immediately turned their horses' heads. Those who had already attacked the city wall quickly turned around and came back, leaving more than 500 people to guard the camp. The rest of the team followed the front team and headed outward. Rush away. But before they could rush to the battlefield five miles away, they were met by their own troops who had retreated in disorder.
Ashina Duzhi couldn't help being surprised: Although this thousand-man team was just a temporary backup team put together before this trip, how could it be so vulnerable?
Seeing the dust flying in the distance, and the Turkic troops and horses attacking the city hastily retreated, a cheer had already sounded from the top of Tingzhou City, "Reinforcements are coming!"
The sentry on the corner tower could see more clearly. As soon as the Turkic troops here turned around, on the battlefield five miles away, another cavalry force of two or three hundred people suddenly shot out from the **** behind the hill. The thousands of Turkic troops who had been rushed into disarray were suddenly rushed and killed from the side. They could no longer hold on and collapsed.
The two Tang armies were united in an instant, but instead of pursuing the victory, they turned their horses and ran away. By the time the large Turkic troops rushed through their defeated army and rushed to the battlefield, the seven or eight hundred people were already far away. The Turks pursued them all the way, and smoke billowed behind the cavalry, gradually disappearing behind the slightly undulating hills in the distance. After they left, they didn't return to the city until the sun was setting in the west ridge and it was getting late. Large and sparse snowflakes had already begun to float in the sky.
Ting Governor Shi stood at the top of the city, looking up at the dark sky, and slowly stretched out his hand. A snowflake fell on his blood-stained hand. It took a while for the white and crystal-clear six-petal flower to disappear, and then it disappeared. Then the second and third pieces fell... The flying snow flakes gradually became denser as dusk fell.
His lips couldn't help but open up into a big smile. He looked up at the defenders at the top of the city and shouted in a hoarse voice, "God help me, Tingzhou!"
…………
Perhaps it was because this winter was extremely cold, and the rare winter snow stayed on the eaves of every household in Xizhou for two or three days before gradually melting away. On the seventh day of the lunar month, the snow melted away, the sky cleared, and the entire Xizhou City seemed much cleaner and fresher than usual. The gold and silver hair fluttering in the hair of women going from house to house shimmered brightly in the winter sunshine, and the laughter of children resounded throughout the streets and alleys of Xizhou again. The wars hundreds of miles away seemed to be an extremely distant thing. Only the streets where there were not many young and strong men could be seen, and there was a faint atmosphere that was different from previous years.
Liuli sent her servants to deliver the gifts for her relatives and friends early in the morning, and soon received many gifts in return. Before noon, she packed up a little and went to Kang's side. Ansaburo and several An family brothers still hadn't converted, and only the female members of the An family had a sumptuous lunch together.
Everyone was chatting all the way through the dinner, and unknowingly they started talking about the current war in Kunling and Tingzhou. The news brought by several Hu merchants who returned from Qiuci two days ago is: Su Daduhuzheng and Ji Qijue Khan are pursuing the troops of the Wudulu tribe. They have pacified one of them years ago, and they are still there today. While chasing the other two units, "I heard that the looting was extremely ruthless, and the grain trucks that followed are now filled with gold and silver utensils!"
"Now in Qiuci, many people are saying that the Xingsi-dead Khan was feared to have been unjustly killed, and the Turkic merchants are gnashing their teeth, saying that Su Daduhu and Jiqijue Khan will definitely have their retribution! Alas, why is it happening now? Is retribution coming to the people of Tingzhou?”
Liuli lowered her head and took a sip of the hot soup, and secretly scolded Su Haizheng and Su Nanjin dozens of times. Those Turkic herdsmen from the Wudulu tribe and the Tang soldiers from Tingzhou were all innocent, and they all deserved to be blamed for causing such a misfortune. To the **** father and son! We still don’t know how the imperial court will deal with them. The news will probably come out in the first month of the year at the earliest. If Emperor Gaozong still lets them off lightly this time, they will be reinstated like Wang Wendu and Cheng Zhijie in a few years. This so-called benevolent emperor is an out-and-out **** emperor!
When this matter was mentioned, everyone lost interest for a moment, and the meal ended in a dull mood. As soon as Liuli returned to the house, Yun Yi walked in angrily, "Sister, the team of Su family soldiers left at the gate of the Dudu's Mansion are too bastards. They actually blocked all the gifts for the Dudu's Mansion today. "What do they think they are?" Although Su Nanjin has left with his troops, he still left two teams of soldiers in Xizhou, one to guard the Governor's Mansion and the other to guard his own house. These people can no longer influence Xizhou. Overall situation, but also very annoying.
The team guarding the Governor's Mansion acted in a domineering manner and no one was allowed to visit except the doctor. They only wanted to let the Governor rest, so Yun Yi was stopped several times. The team guarding Su's house also did not allow anyone to come in or out. Liuli wanted to ask Nana, but Feng Piaopiao still couldn't find a way. However, the siege of Xizhou had just been lifted, and it was just in time for the Chinese New Year. With so many things going on, I couldn't spare any time. Pei Xingjian never said whether he could touch these people...
Liuli lowered her head and thought for a moment, only to feel that the evil fire she had been holding back in her chest started to burn uncontrollably. Suddenly her heart moved, and she nodded and said, "Okay, today we are going to treat the other person in his own way." I will take care of those disasters!" After whispering a few words in Yun Yi's ear, Yun Yi's eyes suddenly lit up, she clapped her hands and said with a smile, "That's a good idea!"
The two of them first took a look at the kitchen. The cook was killing chickens and geese to prepare the dinner for the Valentine's Day. Liuli quickly gathered the ingredients she was looking for and asked people to inform Feng Piaopiao and Xi. The state capital army is waiting for someone. After a while, Feng Piaopiao also rushed over excitedly. After the three of them finished their discussions, they called the maids in, whispered a few instructions, brought a few gift boxes, and headed all the way to the back house of the Governor's Mansion in Chang'anfang.
At the gate of the backyard of the Governor's Mansion, in the alley that was not very wide, more than a dozen soldiers of the Su family stood in the middle with their heads high and their chests high, blocking the door tightly. Seeing Liuli and a group of people coming over, the deputy leading the team recognized that the woman next to him was from Prince Qu's house who had been coming here frequently in the past few days. He vaguely guessed the identity of the person and went to him with a cold face. He took a few steps forward and said, "Madams, please stop!"
Liuli raised her chin and glanced at him, her voice colder than his, "Who are you, and why are you blocking the door of the Governor's Mansion?"
The team deputy looked at Liuli's expression and felt a little angry in his heart. He said proudly, "A certain person is a personal guard of the Governor's Mansion. He has been ordered to guard the Governor's Mansion and prevent others from disturbing the Governor's rest. Why don't you leave quickly!" "
Liuli looked him up and down and said, "Really? Then bring out the Great Protector's warrant and let me take a look!"
The team deputy was startled for a moment, frowned and said, "This is Mr. Su's order before he left. How can there be any warrant?"
The look of contempt in Liuli's eyes became even more intense, "Su Nanjin? Who is he? When will it be the turn of such a rat to dictate what's going on in Xizhou City? Since you don't have a warrant from the Protector, please step aside. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude!”
The deputy's face turned completely gloomy, "Who do you think you are? You dare to say nothing to my young master?"
Liuli glanced at him from the corner of her eye, and only uttered two words, "Get out of here!" She raised her head and started to walk in.
The deputy of the team couldn't bear it any longer. He pulled out his sword with a "choking" sound and said sternly, "Young Master has an order. Anyone who dares to disobey the order and break into the Governor's Mansion will be killed without mercy!"
Yun Yi, who was beside him, suddenly burst out laughing. He walked up in two steps and glanced sideways at the deputy, "Kill without mercy? Kill him and show me!" As he said that, he took a step towards the deputy.
The two maids beside her rushed forward and grabbed the deputy, "Don't hurt my wife. My wife's brothers and clansmen are working hard to protect Dadu. Who of you dare to touch her?"
Feng Piaopiao's maid even stepped forward to seize the deputy's knife. Several maids formed a mess around the deputy and Yun Yi. Several soldiers saw something was wrong and hurriedly came up to push him away. The situation suddenly became tense. It became more and more confusing. Suddenly, someone screamed, "How dare you hurt me!" The group of people suddenly fell silent. They saw Yun Yi covering her arm, blood seeping out from between her fingers, and soon most of her clothes were dyed red. sleeve.
The teammate's mouth was wide open. He looked down at the sharp sword in his hand, which was stained with a trace of blood at some point. Then he looked up at Yunyi's bleeding arm, and his head suddenly felt like a mess.
Liuli was also stunned, and suddenly shouted sharply, "Go and invite Guo Tuanzheng!" He then pulled off his shawl and tied Yunyi's arm tightly.
Yunyi kept saying "ouch" all the time, and all the maids were shouting around her. The alley was very lively for a while, and more and more people from Xizhou were attracted by the movement. The maid ran away, and without even a moment of tea, Guo Tuanzheng appeared at the entrance of the alley with dozens of Xizhou soldiers and asked loudly, "Mrs. Kudi, what happened?"
Liuli led the people to greet him and pointed towards the team deputy with a scowl on his face, "Tuanzheng, these people are so audacious. They knew clearly that the Nishu tribe was working for the Great Protector, but they drew a knife and injured the chief of the Nishu tribe in broad daylight. My dear sister, if the chief of the Nishu tribe learns about this and thinks it is the order of the Great Protector, what will happen? Tuan Zheng is determined to capture these madmen and give an explanation to the Nishe tribe, so as not to chill the hearts of the soldiers! "
Guo Tuanzheng's face turned cold, "I obey, my Majesty!" He waved his hand, "Take down these bold rats!"
Dozens of Xizhou soldiers immediately drew their swords from their sheaths and rushed forward, surrounding the dozen soldiers. Guo Tuanzheng took a few steps forward, and Hengdao sneered, "If you put down your sword, I will send you to Xizhou Prison. If you dare to resist, I will kill you without mercy today!"
The team deputy’s originally messed up mind suddenly woke up, and he looked up at Liuli in shock, “You are so slanderous! How dare you frame me!”
Liuli looked at him coldly, with a deep chill in her clear voice, "What is spewing blood? What is frame-up? I think these methods are most understood by Protector Su and Mr. Su, and you also understand them very well. I am a woman." But how can I understand? I only know that there is a word of retribution in this world. You might as well give it a try today to see if it is your turn!"
The team deputy was startled, listening to the cold voice. For some reason, the scene of all the Turkic nobles bleeding at the camp that day suddenly came to mind. The arrogance in his heart turned into a piece of ice without realizing it. He turned around and looked at the dozens of gleaming guns around him. When I saw the government soldiers pouring in from the alley, I thought for a few times, gritted my teeth and let go of the knife and threw it away, "Throw away the knife! Let's wait until the young master comes back and then argue with them!"
Seeing a dozen Su soldiers being led out with their hands tied behind their backs, the hundreds of Xizhou people who had already surrounded the alley burst into cheers. The angry father-in-law spit it out, and some of the soldiers laughed and said, "Old father-in-law, please be careful before you spit it out. They must taste this good thing and don't waste it on someone's new clothes!" The laughter suddenly became louder.
Liuli suppressed her smile, took two steps forward and said seriously, "Tuanzheng, these soldiers of the Su family are in the same group. Tuanzheng must capture them all today, don't leave any one behind!"
Guo Tuanzheng hugged his hands with a smile on his face, "Madam, don't worry, before the official came, we had sent people to the rooms where they usually live in the Su Mansion and the Dudu Mansion. There will never be a fish that slips through the net today!"
Liuli nodded, "Then I'll ask Tuan Zheng to accompany me to the Su Mansion." He turned around and blinked at Yunyi. Yunyi sighed with regret on his face and was supported by two maids as he walked back. , the blood was still dripping from his arm all the way.
When a group of people arrived at the gate of the Su Mansion in Luoyangfang, the soldiers rushed up and **** the group of soldiers at the door without saying a word, which also attracted a burst of applause.
In the midst of the commotion, I saw someone quickly walking out of the door. It was Nana, and she said sternly, "What are you doing?"
Liuli glanced at her coldly, "Someone has bad intentions and deliberately instigates a relationship between the Turkic soldiers who succeeded Jue Khan and the Great Protectorate. Naturally, we will capture them and interrogate them to see who they are. Commander, is it possible that you want to stop the soldiers from doing their errands?"
Nana was startled for a moment, then rolled her eyes to look at the people at the door, and suddenly jumped up, "Who is sowing a relationship? I'm afraid it's you who is sowing a relationship between the Protector and Xizhou, with ulterior motives..." Before he could finish his sentence, Feng Piaopiao took one step forward, stretched out his hand to twist her, and turned around and said, "Tuanzheng, this little maid actually said nothing to Mrs. Chang Shi and wantonly slandered her, let me teach her a lesson!"
Guo Tuanzheng paid no attention to this and nodded naturally. The maid behind Feng Piaopiao came up and grabbed Nana and dragged her down, leaving the sound of crying all the way. No one in the Su Mansion poked their heads in anymore, but there was a "bang" sound. Closed the door. Liuli looked at the door for a moment, then nodded with a sneer, "Let's go!"
By the time she returned home, Yunyi had already changed into a new set of clothes, and the "wound" on her arm had been "treated" by Han Si, who had wrapped it in several layers of conspicuous clean cloth. She jumped up when she saw Liuli back. , "How? How is it over there?"
Liuli smiled and said, "It's easy to catch me!" He smiled and told her about the situation at the door of Su's mansion. After a while, Feng Piaopiao walked in quickly. This time it was Liuli and Yun Yi. They all said in unison, "How?"
Feng Piaopiao frowned, "Nana reported back, Su Nanjin went back to the house the night before leaving the city and left at midnight. After he left, Zhang Minniang felt something was wrong. She was crying and laughing at the same time. She didn't sleep a wink in the morning. Su Nanjin was originally not allowed to go out these days, but when she got up, she begged the soldiers at the door to let her come out to see him off. In the past few days, she didn't speak during the day, only talking to each other. I was fascinated by a post. Nana is not very illiterate, but the look of the post she said seemed to be commonly used in the Prince's Mansion. Madam, I was really worried..."
Liuli's expression suddenly changed, and she stood up with excitement, "Piao Piao, are there any of your people who are good at equestrian skills? Send them to chase Chang Shi and the Crown Prince immediately, and tell them to be careful of Su Nanjin!"
I’m sorry, I’m an hour late, but I’ve coded a thousand words more. I’ll upload it first, and then edit it carefully. I’ll continue to work **** coding tomorrow, and I’ll continue to pray for pink...
