Chapter 75: The Cold Zhao Kuangyin(1/2)

Zhao Kuangyin's voice almost made Xu Xian explode with anger. He shouldered the responsibility of bringing Zhao Kuangyin's father back from outside the city, who was about to die of illness. He just didn't thank him. It was completely unreasonable to ask him for a crime.

He immediately replied coldly: "I only know that being unfilial is also a serious sin!"

"Loyalty and filial piety are a dilemma, and I am helpless! If you plead guilty, I will escort you back to Shouzhou to be punished by His Majesty. If you are stubborn, this will be your fate!" Zhao Kuangyin said, pointing to the bloody head beside him.

Xu Xian looked at each other angrily, "If you think it's up to your conscience, just chop off my head!"

Zhao Kuangyin snorted coldly, "In that case, don't blame me for being cruel. Someone will pull him out and chop him up!" As he said this, he took out the order sign placed on the long case and threw it to the ground.

The soldiers immediately dragged Xu Xian outside. Seeing this, the generals and commanders in the lobby began to plead for mercy. These people usually went to Changle Building to eat and drink, but at critical times they were much more conscientious than Zhao Kuangyin, his uncle.

Zhao Kuangyin turned a deaf ear and shouted sternly: "The army has its own laws. Xu Xian has violated a taboo in the army. Even if I are related to him by marriage, I can't spare him. Don't try to persuade me again or you will share the same crime with him. The knife and ax hand are stunned." You haven’t even started writing yet!”

Seeing the shadow on the ground slowly raising his arms, Xu Xian fell into the ice cave and felt ridiculous. He was about to be beheaded by the thigh he wanted to hug. He must be the most miserable time traveler. .

At this time, I heard the sound of neat footsteps outside the gate of the mansion, and then I saw a group of people rushing into the governor's mansion. The swordsman and axe-hand were kicked to the ground. The chief untied Xu Xian's rope and cursed: " Fortunately we arrived in time, otherwise you would really have been beheaded by your uncle, you will not give in!"

Zhao Kuangyin had already walked out of the lobby and shouted loudly: "Are you going to rebel?"

Wu Lianggong sneered and said: "Commander Zhao really thinks highly of us, and he charged us with such a big crime. I really can't afford it!"

Zhao Kuangyin said: "Since it is not a rebellion, then give Xu Xian back to me. I will not hold you responsible for what happened today."

The Muggle pouted and spat out thick phlegm, which landed impartially on Zhao Kuangyin's head and face, and said with a ferocious smile, "Off with your head!"

Zhao Kuangyin wiped the thick phlegm on his face casually, veins popped up on his forehead, and ordered the general beside him: "You will return to the camp immediately to mobilize troops and wipe out all the red scarves!"

All the generals were shocked. Fights and fights are common in the army, but if a crowd gets angry and a problem breaks out, people will die. There is no way to fight with the enemy on the battlefield. There is no hatred or resentment. The good thing is, none of the military men are willing to do it when one's own people beat their own people.

If the generals who had previously comforted Zhao Kuangyin still had reservations, they used all their strength at this time, pulling Zhao Kuangyin's arm one by one and shouting: "Commander Zhao can't do it! What's the point of one's own people beating one's own people! Your Majesty I can’t explain it there!”

"Yes! We have just captured Shouzhou and surrendered many Tang troops. If we fight on our own, wouldn't we be taken advantage of by others?"

"Who says it's not the case! It would be better if I were beaten to death. If I can't be beaten to death, wouldn't it be embarrassing to meet him later?"



Dakui thrust a horizontal knife into Xu Xian's hand, "If they are really unkind, we will fight them!"

Xu Xian smiled and said: "Fuck it! Let's go!"

"where to?"

"Where else can we go? Pack our things and go back to Shouzhou!"

Xu Xian left the Governor's Mansion with everyone in the Red Scarf City, packed up tents and took some supplies and left the city overnight, and only set up camp at Qingliu Pass to rest.

Xu Xian got into the tent and saw that Muggle was already asleep with the wine bag in his arms. He reached for it and took a few sips before seeing Wu Liang come in. When he saw Xu Xian, he laughed and said: "Marquis Yu is indeed here.

Drink away your sorrows!"

"Haha... Where do I get my sorrow from?"

"Yu Hou, stop pretending. I know you must hate Commander Zhao very much at this moment. You are obviously responsible for bringing him in from outside the city, but he wants to chop off your head. If it were you, I would be just as angry!"

"You Bodhisattva still have a certain amount of anger. It would be strange if I weren't angry. You shouldn't have spoken up for him."

Wu Liang said seriously: "Marquis Yu misunderstood Commander Zhao. In fact, Marquis Yu didn't know that Commander Zhao sent someone to ask us to go to the Governor's Mansion to rob you!"

"Oh?" Xu Xian frowned and asked, "What's going on!"

"Mr. Zhao came to the camp and asked us to put on a good show with Commander Zhao, so that everyone can explain it easily. Commander Zhao doesn't really want to chop off your head. You are his brother-in-law. If he kills you, he will kill you."

If you go to Kaifeng, you will have your head smashed with a rolling pin."

Xu Xian raised his eyebrows, "Oh! That's the case. I must have misunderstood him."

"Commander Zhao and his troops are very important outside. Marquis Yu should only show sympathy to him once, and ask him to apologize to you when he returns to Kaifeng!" Wu Liang said and took out a folded piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Xu Xian,

"Commander Zhao gave this to you! You should rest early and I will take people on patrol."

Xu Xian took it and put it in front of the lamp. There were several vague handwritings on the folded paper, which were obviously written in a hurry. He didn't open it to read, but directly put the paper on the candlelight, and the paper immediately turned into a

The flickering firelight illuminated Xu Xian's face.

Xu Xian didn't wake up until three o'clock in the morning. Everyone else did the same. They had breakfast and returned along the way they came. When passing by Haozhou, they thought that Bai Yanyu had already occupied Haozhou.

I wanted to talk to him about old times.

When they arrived at the gate of Haozhou City, they saw that the gate was closed. The soldiers on the city wall were patrolling constantly and seemed very nervous. Xu Xian asked people to call for the gate, but it did not open. He only said that Bai Yanyu had strictly ordered not to open the gate without permission.

.

Xu Xian had no choice but to call the door in person. Most of Bai Yanyu's subordinates recognized Xu Xian but still refused to open the door. They said they were going to report to Bai Yanyu, but they didn't come back. Xu Xian began to feel that something was wrong. Could it be possible?

Bai Yanyu was killed in a rebellion, which is not surprising.

Just when he was confused, a man appeared from the top of the city and shouted: "It's really Xu Yuhou! Open the city gate quickly!"

The city gate slowly opened and the drawbridge was slowly lowered. Wang Erbian was seen leading several people out of the city. When he saw Xu Xian, he said, "Marquis Yu is here just in time. Beringong invites you to enter the city!"

Xu Xian joked: "Now that Bai Yanyu has become the governor, he has immediately become more assertive, and he didn't even come to greet me in person!"

Wang Erbian replied softly: "Marquis Yu doesn't know something. Bailing Gong is ill at this time and is about to die. How can I come to welcome you!"

It turned out that Bai Yanyu had a high fever since last night and fell into coma from time to time. When Xu Xian first arrived, he was still in a coma. When he woke up and heard that Xu Xian had arrived, Bai Yanyu was worried that there was fraud, so he called Wang Er, who was familiar with Xu Xian.

Come and invite me in person.

When Xu Xian saw Bai Yanyu, he saw him lying on the bed, his face and lips turned pale, and his clothes were almost soaked with sweat. When he saw Xu Xian, he smiled and said, "You came just in time. If I die,

This Haozhou City is just for you to guard."

"I know you're not afraid of death, but you can't curse yourself like this. What kind of disease do you have?"

"It's not a disease, it's just an old injury!" Bai Yanyu took off his clothes and saw a wound on his swollen chest muscle. Even though he applied the powder, there was still pus flowing out. Although the wound only had copper coins.

The size of the wound was small, but a large piece of flesh around the wound, as big as the bottom of a bowl, had turned black and gave off a faint stench.

"When we attacked Shouzhou City last year, I was hit by an arrow in this position. Although it still hurt from time to time when I pulled it out, I didn't take it to heart. The attack became severe as the weather got warmer. After I captured Haozhou, pus began to ooze.

I've tried so many sore medicines but it's all useless. I started having a fever yesterday, and I knew I didn't have much time left. I woke up just now and was about to write a letter asking Your Majesty to send someone to take my place. Who knew you were here!"

Bai Yanyu's eyelids suddenly sank, "Here we go again, I can't hold on anymore, I'll leave Haozhou to you!"

His face began to turn red, and the skin that had been sweating just now became dry and hot, making him look sleepy.

Xu Xian asked: "Where is the doctor?"

"The villain is here!" A middle-aged man came closer. Judging from his accent, he must be a native of Haozhou. After all, not every team has a doctor with a red scarf.

Xu Xian pointed at the wound on Bai Yanyu's chest and said, "You dig out all the rotten flesh. Don't leave any rotten flesh behind."

"General, please rest assured that the villain's golden sore medicine has the effect of removing decay and regenerating muscle. I don't know how much blood will be shed after digging out such a large piece of decayed flesh. The patient is so weak that he may not be able to bear it."

Bai Yanyu also said: "Xu Xian, Xu Xian, you think I can't die quickly enough, so you are so impatient that I can just hand over the military power to you now!"

As he spoke, he took out a copper tiger talisman from under the pillow. Xu Xian couldn't laugh or cry, "I don't want to rebel if I want your military power. If you continue like this, you will die suddenly in two days."

Bai Yanyu said: "I joined the army when I was thirteen years old. I have seen countless wounded soldiers. Once the injury is like mine, if it becomes suppurative and rotten, you can only have your limbs amputated or wait for death. I can't hurt half of my chest."

Cut off the body."

Xu Xian said: "You don't need to chop off half of your body, just gouge out this piece of rotten flesh. Take my word for it and you'll have half a chance of surviving."

"Forget it, a dead horse is treated as a living horse doctor, I believe you for once! Help me up, I will write a memorial to Your Majesty!" Bai Yanyu stood up with force, sat in front of the case and wrote a memorial to Chai Rong, the content is:

If he died of illness, he would hand over the city defense of Haozhou to Xu Xian. Halfway through writing, he suddenly raised his head and asked, "By the way, aren't you in Chuzhou? Why are you here?"

Xu Xian scratched his nose and said, "This is a long story. I'll also write a memorial and hand it over."

Bai Yanyu finished writing the memorial and lay back on the bed. Xu Xian called for Yin Simiao and warned him: "You have to be more careful. This man is a man of discipline. If he is put to death, his soldiers can

I can’t spare you.”

Yin Simiao took the knife and grilled it on the burning alcohol. "Isn't it difficult for Marquis Yu to make things difficult for me? Beringong's injury is easy to deal with, but if his fever doesn't stop, I won't be sure."

Bai Yanyu grinned and said to Yin Simiao: "Just do it. If you really kill me, I won't blame you!"

"Then I can safely go ahead with the knife!" Yin Simiao said, piercing Bai Yanyu's chest with the knife, turning around and gouging out the rotten flesh.

There was no anesthetic, and it all relied on Yin Simiao's clean and sharp knife skills. Even so, Bai Yanyu still fainted from the pain. Sure enough, as Yin Simiao said, even though the wound was treated, Bai Yanyu still had a fever.

, I don’t know how much of the decoction I drank, but it was good and bad sometimes.

Xu Xian remembered that willow bark can reduce fever and inflammation, so he asked someone to scrape the juice and give it to Bai Yanyu. After drinking it for two days, it was really effective, and he finally brought Bai Yanyu back from the Palace of Hell.

While Yin Simiao was changing the medicine for him, Bai Yanyu secretly took the alcohol and took a sip, "It's such a good medicine. I was ready to see the Lord of Hell, but you two saved me again. Now

If you owe me a huge favor, how can I pay it back in the future?"

Yin Simiao wrapped gauze around Bai Yanyu and preached: "We, the Marquis of Yu, are the most righteous and do not expect repayment for our kindness. All we have to do is order Gongbi to imitate Commander Zhao and chop off our Yu Marquis' heads for trivial matters!"

"

Bai Yanyu looked at Xu Xian who was standing aside, "Isn't Zhao Yuanlang your brother-in-law? Why did he want to chop off your head?"

Xu Xian didn't need to answer, Yin Simiao told the whole story clearly like a woman with a long tongue.

Bai Yanyu laughed after hearing this, "Your brother-in-law is a man who does big things. For the sake of his future, he can ignore the feelings of his biological father and sister-in-law."

Xu Xian said: "How to say?"

"This kind of thing can be big or small. It's easy to explain to the people below. It's just a meal of wine and meat. It's difficult for the people above. I'm not a stupid person. Zhao Yuanlang opened the door without authorization to take his father into the city or let him go easily.
