Daming: From the end of Hongwu

Chapter 335 333- Is this tone really going to be swallowed?

The blue smoke in the copper tripod was still curling up, but it seemed to be blown away by Xue Lu's roar.

After Zhao Ying and the others responded, they walked towards Jing Miao, while Ji Gang and Zuo Shi dodged to block Jing Miao when they saw this, and both drew out their knives in a gesture of resistance.

Seeing this scene with cold eyes, Xue Lu snorted coldly, and then strode towards Ji Gang and the others himself.

At the same time, his hand was already on the waist knife, and he was holding it tightly, ready to go.

He wants to see if Ji Gang dares to stop him.

Anyone who dares to stop.

He moved like a thunderbolt.

Ji Gang looked at Xue Lu and walked towards him step by step.

When Xue Lu came to Ji Gang, Xue Lu smiled contemptuously, and then planned to go over Ji Gang to catch Jing Miao, but just as he moved, Ji Gang also moved.

However, Ji Gang's movement seemed to be stepping on a life-threatening mechanism like a stormy sea, and it was like a thunderbolt from a blue sky. Xue Lu, who was not in a hurry just now, drew out the waist knife in his hand as fast as lightning, and quickly Like the wind, he slashed towards Ji Gang.

Ji Gang was shocked, and hurriedly raised his knife to block.

But Xue Lu's saber was heavy and powerful, he directly sent Ji Gang's saber flying, and then slashed at Ji Gang with the next saber. Lie back.

A close call.

The cold tip of the knife slid across the front two inches of Ji Gang's throat, and the force of the blade piercing through the air suddenly aroused Ji Gang's goosebumps.

Just two simple tricks sent Ji Gang into hell.

Is this the martial arts of a general on the battlefield?
Is this the titan born in a hundred battles?

Until now, Ji Gang seemed to understand how terrifying the people who were killed from the battlefield were, and they were completely different creatures from the civil servants he had captured in the past.

At this time, because Ji Gang was lying on the back, he fell straight on the ground, and there was no possibility of changing his body shape, so he could only roll left and right to avoid, but he couldn't roll the third knife that Xue Lu followed.

Seeing that Ji Gang was about to die in Xue Lu's hands, Ji Gang's left envoy finally came to his senses, stabbed in obliquely from the side, stopped Xue Lu, and then rushed forward, trying to fight Xue Lu.

Xue Lu was a little surprised, he didn't expect that the left envoy had some skills in his hands, so he couldn't take it down for a while.

But it doesn't matter, it's just a few more knives.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ji Gang quickly rolled into the distance a few times, he was afraid of panic, he never thought that Xue Lu would be so quick and quick in his hands, it was completely beyond his expectation, he quickly pointed at the edge of his mouth , A loud whistle sounded.

Then, in less than a quarter of an hour, more than a hundred masters who he had prepared earlier, hiding in the dark, swarmed over from all directions.

Surprised, Xue Lu forced Zuo Shi back with a knife, and joined Zhao Ying and others.

He looked coldly at the menacing crowd, and couldn't help feeling a little annoyed.

Fuck his grandma.

Careless.

I didn't expect to encounter such an ambush without fighting.

Afterwards, Xue Lu's eyes turned to Ji Gang. He didn't expect Ji Gang to be well-prepared, and he didn't expect Ji Gang to be so timid. He came to Qingliang Mountain and brought so many good companions with him.

Ji Gang got up from the ground, the panic gradually subsided as he was safe, and then his heart was burning with anger, plus he was so embarrassed by Xue Lu in front of Jing Miao, it seemed that he had been so embarrassed since he was a child. All the humiliation he suffered would be implicated on Xue Lu.

He said bitterly: "I told you earlier, I'm not easy to mess with, you forced me to do all of this." After finishing speaking, Ji Gang looked around at the masters he had prepared, and said coldly: "Give me the best!" .”

The masters immediately rushed towards Xue Lu and the others.

Xue Lu tightened his waist knife and asked Zhao Ying and the others, "Are you afraid?"

"Not afraid."

"Not afraid."

Firm voices sounded one by one.

Xue Lu laughed boldly and said: "I knew it, I didn't act like a coward, and rushed with me to break through this mob."

After finishing speaking, Xue Lu picked up the knife, looked for a direction and rushed over first.

He has no fear on his face, as if he and Zhu Neng, Zhang Wu and dozens of people faced Geng Bingwen's tens of thousands of troops back then, as if he followed Zhen Wu straight into the rear of Sheng Yong's 30 troops, just like Xue Lu As I said before, thousands of troops rushed over, I don't believe that a small Qingliang Mountain can stop him.

But sometimes the strength of power is not controlled by individual subjective consciousness.

First of all, these people brought by Ji Gang are not a mob, but heroes selected by Ji Gang. Secondly, Xue Lu and others did not wear armor, and whether to wear armor or not is completely two kinds of warfare for a soldier. force.

As soon as Xue Lu came into contact with Ji Gang's group of people, several of Xue Lu's followers fell down first, and each of them was injured, lying on the ground powerless to fight again.

And a moment later.

Even Zhao Ying had many scars on his body, and his combat power was greatly reduced.

Xue Luhu was in front of Zhao Ying, with a waist knife dancing like a gust of wind, and he was heavy and powerful. Several people who were besieging him were cut down by him one after another.

He exudes a sturdy temperament, as if he is invincible, which makes the masters brought by Ji Gang stop their offensive, one by one around Xue Lu's vigilant knife, not daring to be the first bird dash forward.

Xue Lu took this opportunity to ask Zhao Ying: "How is it? Can it still work?"

"Master Hou doesn't need to worry about me. I'm fine. Even if I die, I can fight him a few times. I just hope that Lord Hou will avenge his subordinates after he rushes out." Zhao Ying spat out a mouthful of blood, and said as if death was at home.

Xue Lu raised his eyebrows and said: "Shit, I don't care about life and death of brothers, the big deal is death, I want to see how many people they use in exchange for our lives."

After hearing the conversation between Xue Lu and Zhao Ying, the group of masters was a little shocked.

Who doesn't have a headache and fear when encountering this kind of opponent?
The giant can fight, but he is not afraid of death.

Who the hell taught this stuff? !
Some masters who had never been in contact with the Northern Army even murmured in their hearts, no wonder Cao Guogong's hundreds of thousands of troops were defeated before. When meeting such a person, can they not be defeated?

At this moment, Ji Gang was also secretly annoyed by Xue Lu's difficulties, but he was not helpless.

What is Jin Yiwei doing?

Fighting against each other has never been said to be top-notch, but when it comes to catching people, they dare to compete.

Ji Gang said in a deep voice: "Lay out a net."

As soon as the words fell, several people had already taken out several large nets, and they quickly lined up the nets and went towards Xue Lu. At the same time, several people took out the tripping ropes and threw them at Xue Lu's feet.

The tripping rope tied with stones whizzed towards Xue Lu's feet. Xue Lu couldn't dodge for a while, and was hit by the tripping rope. Binding them round and round, after Xue Lu's feet were tied together, his center of gravity was unstable, and he fell heavily on the ground. He hurriedly planned to use a knife to cut them off, but the next moment, several large nets also fell from Xue Lu's head. Cover down.

When the big net covered Xue Lu, the group of masters immediately began to close the net, and after a while, they tied Xue Lu tightly.

It's funny to say, if on the battlefield, Xue Luma and Jia were given, let alone these people, Xue Lu would dare to go back and forth a few times, but now he was careless for a while, and he, with extraordinary martial arts, was killed by this group of people. It was cured in this way, and no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't break free.

At this time, he couldn't help thinking of Zhen Wu's great strength, and thought that if Zhen Wu was here, he would definitely not be in such a fate.

Seeing that the important matter had been decided, Ji Gang walked over slowly and looked down at Xue Lu.

He sneered twice and asked: "Xue Lu, don't you want to see if you can please me after you provoke me? Now tell me, are you good or not?"

Xue Lu glanced at Ji Gang coldly, and then said with a disdainful smile: "Since I, Xue Lu, was captured by you by mistake, you can kill or cut me up as you please. Would you be afraid when I was Xue Lu? I was not afraid on the first day I was a soldier. Dead words, if you have the guts, kill me, or else just wait and see how I treat you in the future."

"How courageous." Ji Gang's eyes suddenly showed killing intent.

The Zuo Shi also asked at this time: "Commander, do you want to kill him to avoid future troubles?"

Ji Gang didn't speak immediately, and his mind turned quickly. He considered how likely it would be to be known by others if he killed Xue Lu, but after thinking about it, he had to admit that if Xue Lu died here, no matter what No matter how much he quibbles and tries to escape, he must have something to do with this matter.

His wonderful life has just begun, how could he be willing to exchange with Xue Lu, even if Xue Lu is Lord Marquis, in his opinion, it is not worth it.

He sighed regretfully in his heart.

The officer of Jin Yiwei's commander is still too young, and in the heart of the emperor, his weight is too light.

In this case, bear with it.

But capital crimes can be escaped, but living crimes are inevitable. Ji Gang looked left and right, found a whistle stick, and smashed it hard at Xue Lu's head.

A thud.

Blood slowly flowed out from Xue Lu's hair, gradually fascinated Xue Lu's eyes, but Xue Lu didn't say a word, just stared at Ji Gang bitterly.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Ying yelled miserably: "Master Hou." Then he yelled at Ji Gang frantically: "Fuck you, there is a way to attack me."

Ji Gang glanced at Zhao Ying with disdain, and didn't even have the intention to say a word to Zhao Ying, he threw down the stick lightly, turned around and came to Master Jing Miao's side.

"You have also seen what happened today. It will definitely be difficult for you to stay here any longer. I will send you back to my residence."

Jing Miao looked at Xue Lu and the others in the distance, and after withdrawing her gaze, she did not refuse again.

Seeing this, Ji Gang waved to his people and said, "Let's go, let's retreat."

After finishing speaking, he went first to the outside of the Taoist temple.

After they got off Qingliang Mountain, Ji Gang summoned the left envoy and asked, "The person who asked to see the second prince hasn't come back yet?"

The leftist shook his head.

Ji Gang glanced back at Qingliang Mountain, and then said: "Then you send Master Jingmiao back to my residence."

"Commander, what do you want...?"

Ji Gang said indifferently: "I'm going to meet the second prince, the second prince will soon arrive in the capital." Afterwards, Ji Gang ordered some troops and headed in another direction.

On the way, Ji Gang was thinking about what to say to Zhu Gaoxu after seeing Zhu Gaoxu. After much deliberation, he finally became ruthless and thought, at worst, he would secretly serve the Second Prince. Accept him.

He has confidence in this, and if he didn't have this confidence, he wouldn't dare to confront Xue Lu head-on.

He had known for a long time that the second prince had been dissatisfied with the eldest prince, and in his opinion, the second prince was heroic and extraordinary like Zhu Di, and the future had a bright future.

This reminded him of the scene when he and a group of scholars were captured in the Yan army camp. At that time, although King Yan took Dezhou City, the outcome of the court was still unknown, and he still resolutely ran against the group of scholars. He served King Yan.

What about the group of scholars now?
Now is the time for him to place a bet again. He believes that his vision will once again bet on the future.

……

In the Taoist temple, when Ji Gang and his group left, Xue Lu was already injured, and in the end, Ji Gang hit his head hard, and finally couldn't bear it and fell into a coma.

Zhao Ying hurriedly ignored her injuries, went outside to find a few people and rescued Xue Lu and others back to the Hou Mansion.

Following the doctor's treatment, Xue Lu woke up faintly at night.

But to the surprise of everyone in the mansion, Xue Lu who woke up was surprisingly calm, not only did not get angry and manic, but quietly cooperated with the doctor's instructions.

Only Zhao Ying, who had been by Xue Lu's side for many years, knew that Xue Lu was definitely planning a monstrous event in his heart. He didn't ask anything, but silently wiped his waist knife at night.

Just like what Zhao Guogong taught them, they need to meditate on every major event.

For several days.

While Xue Lu was recovering from his wounds, at the same time, exactly as Zhao Ying had imagined, he was planning how many soldiers and horses to send into the city, and how many more soldiers and horses to send to Ji Gang's hometown, trying to wipe out all the old and small members of Ji Gang's family at once. For this reason, even if Zhu Di chopped off his head, he would not hesitate.

But when he was planning these, Zhu Gaoxu returned to Beijing, and came to Xue Lu's home immediately.

After Zhu Gaoxu saw Xue Lu, he kindly stepped forward to check Xue Lu's injury, and said with a sigh of relief: "Old Xue, fortunately, your injury is fine, otherwise I really don't know what to do Open your mouth for Ji Gang."

"Your Highness is acting as a lobbyist for Ji Gang?" Xue Lu asked.

Zhu Gaoxu was not embarrassed, he nodded bluntly, and said to Xue Lu: "I accepted Ji Gang this time, so Lao Xue, can you save me face, let's forget about it, and I will let Ji Gang settle it for you later. Wine to make amends, besides, in the end, you two are just fighting for a Taoist nun, there is no such thing as a woman in the world, I will find some good ones for you later, and give them to you, you don't think so."

"He told His Highness that we were just fighting for Taoist nun?" Xue Lu asked.

Zhu Gaoxu asked doubtfully, "Is there anything else?"

Xue Lu was silent for a while, then waved his hands and said, "Let's think of it as a Taoist nun, but I can't swallow this breath. I hope His Highness will understand. Even if His Majesty cuts off my head, I will kill him."

Zhu Gaoxu frowned, and said displeasedly: "What are you talking about, the title you and the old man won after hundreds of battles was lost just for the sake of venting, don't you think it's naive? And even if you are not afraid of death, you don't take it for your wife and children Think about it? Besides, I’ve never begged you for anything in my life, right? I begged you so hard, and you didn’t give me any face? What? I’m so useless when I’m here with you? Do I have to invite the old man out? Is it useful?"

Xue Lu didn't speak.

Zhu Gaoxu was a little annoyed immediately. He felt that Xue Lu was not polite at all when he talked to Xue Lu in a nice way, so he couldn't help but put on a little face and said: "What's the matter? You still want his life? What I said is really wrong. Doesn’t work at all? To put it bluntly, I’m discussing it with you now, but even if I don’t discuss it with you, as long as I want to protect Jigang, what can you Xue Lu do with him?”

This... is really the case.

Xue Lu opened his mouth, and finally looked at Zhu Gaoxu seriously and said, "Your Highness really wants to protect him?"

Zhu Gaoxu was careless, not aware of the importance of this matter to Xue Lu at all, and said: "If you insisted on killing him before I agreed to him, I don't care, but since I agreed to him, it will be difficult for the husband to say a word. If you chase him, you must keep him."

After finishing speaking, Zhu Gaoxu saw that Xue Lu was a little moved, and said while the iron was hot: "However, don't worry, I won't let you suffer. I will ask Ji Gang to set up wine to make amends. In addition, I will find you two good-looking women to make amends." You, if you ask me for anything in the future, I will never shirk it, and I will do it for you, what do you think?"

After Xue Lu was silent for a while, the whole body was dissipated, and he closed his eyes and said: "Since Your Highness wants to protect him, I will swallow this breath, but don't mention the matter of serving wine again. I have a serious headache and can't eat." Your Highness, please take back his wine and the words His Highness said about finding a woman."

Zhu Gaoxu was overjoyed: "It's fine if you don't want to arrange the wine. As for the matter of finding a woman, you don't have to worry about me. I just ask you. You said you swallowed this breath, but are you serious?"

"really."

"That's it."

Then Zhu Gaoxu chatted with Xue Lu enthusiastically, and then Zhu Gaoxu left.

When he left Xue Lu's house, Ji Gang rushed out from the side, and he asked with a flattering smile: "Your Highness, this matter...?"

Zhu Gaoxu raised his head and proudly said: "I will go out in person, and I will succeed immediately." After finishing speaking, he glanced at Ji Gang contemptuously and said, "Okay, you don't have to hide from now on, Xue Lu won't trouble you again."

Hearing this, Ji Gang was elated, and the embarrassment that he had been hiding for days was swept away, and he became the commanding officer of the Jinyiwei who was daunting and majestic again, even walking a little more awkwardly.

In the next few days, a rumor spread in Beijing.

This rumor quickly became popular again, and soon became common knowledge.

Xue Lu and Ji Gang fought for a beautiful Taoist nun, but Ji Gang won a big victory, not only hugging the beauty back, but also breaking Xue Lu's head.

The common people chatted with gusto, while the officials were skeptical, but Xue Lu disappeared for several days, while Ji Gang always appeared ostentatiously in the eyes of everyone, which confirmed the rumor for a while.

Zhang Wu and the others couldn't sit still.

After the court that day, they went to Xue Lu's mansion together as companions. When they came to Xue Lu's house, they found that many of Xue Lu's subordinates also came to visit Xue Lu, and they were all staying outside the room at the moment.

People like Li Erniu, Hu Changyong, Zhang Wu and others were no strangers. After greeting them, Zhang Wu felt a little bad when he saw their aggrieved and angry faces.

After Zhang Wu and the others entered the room and saw Xue Lu, their faces darkened.
Xue Lu was indeed injured, and the wound on his head was still bandaged.

Zhang Wu said angrily: "Who is it? But that Ji Gang?"

Xue Lu has been in a gloomy mood for the past few days. He can still yell at his subordinates violently, but in the face of the concern of Zhang Wu and others, he is deeply ashamed while being moved.

Seeing that Xue Lu didn't speak, Zhang Wu suddenly understood, and immediately said angrily: "Fuck it, I'll kill him."

But Zhang Wu just moved.

Xue Lu stopped Zhang Wu: "Zhang Wu, come back."

Zhang Wu turned around and looked at him puzzled, Xue Lu explained: "If I could cut it off, I would have done it a long time ago, how can I wait for you? It was His Royal Highness the Second Prince who took care of him and personally came to suppress this matter for Ji Gang."

Second prince?
Zhang Wu and the others were stunned.

If the second prince came out to replace Ji Gang, it seemed that they really had nothing to do with Ji Gang.

After a long time.

Zhang Wu suddenly looked at Tan Zhong and said meaningfully: "It's been a while since our elder brother went to Beiping to pick up people. The last letter mentioned Xuzhou, so I think he will be in the capital within a few days."

Tan Zhong's fourth younger sister is Tan Yuan's eldest son. During this period of time, because of Wang Zhen's death, Tan Yuan also began to disarm his armor one by one. He also intentionally trained Tan Zhong and let Tan Zhong take over his position. , so Tan Zhong often runs around with Zhang Wu after he has nothing to do these days.

At this moment, Tan Zhong understood Zhang Wu's meaning, nodded repeatedly and said, "Well, big brother will arrive in Longjiang in three to five days at the latest."

Xue Lu naturally understood what they meant, and said hastily when he saw this, "I hope everyone will help me cover it up, I really don't want Boss Zhen to see me like this."

"Why?" Everyone was puzzled.

Xue Lu said: "Firstly, this matter is really embarrassing. Let Boss Zhen know that he will be scolded again. Secondly, I don't want him and the second prince to have any gap because of me. He and the second prince have a good relationship. And recently you have heard about it in the military..."

Having said that, Xue Lu lowered his voice and said: "During the time of Jing Nan, Your Majesty told the second prince that the son is very sick, and he may have some thoughts. It would be inappropriate if Boss Zhen and the second prince had a gap. .”

Zhang Wu scratched his head and said: "No way, I remember that elder brother told me that His Majesty also told elder brother how sick the son was when Jing Nan was in trouble. This is nothing to say, let's not think about it."

"No matter what, you guys cover up for me in front of Boss Zhen."

Zhang Wu and the others were not very happy, but Xue Lu said so, it seems that they are not good at making their own decisions, but they just have an inexplicable sense of humiliation in their hearts.

Their right army has always been willing to fight the toughest battles, and they have never persuaded any opponents. No matter how difficult it is to succeed, they are not as good as before.

Now there are rumors raging outside, and all the officials and soldiers and civilians are watching them.

If he remained indifferent, wouldn't Ji Gang step on their right army to take the position?
How will others look at them in the future, how will Ji Gang look down on them.

After all, Xue Lu is one of the most famous generals in their right army. If Ji Gang can overwhelm Xue Lu, who else would he not dare to mess with?

Do you really want to swallow this breath?

Tan Zhong was the most direct, mumbling unwillingly: "Then this is too useless, Ji Gang's bastard, I don't like it no matter what, so let's take him for nothing, the **** Jing Nan never Seeing what merits he has made, now relying on the second prince, he is riding on our heads?"

Everyone didn't answer.

Although I don't want to admit it, sometimes things seem so cruel.
