Bend Over [ 折腰 ] - Chapter 68
[Chapter 67 6]
Wei Shao had already left, and Wei Yu had been lying on the ground in the wilderness like a dying man.
Only then did he use all his strength to knock down Wei Shao. Wei Shao was the same. There is no left force in the hands.
At this moment, his nose was still slowly bleeding out. He remained motionless, allowing a column of warm blood to slowly flow down his face and gradually seep into the mud under the pillow of the back of his head.
It hadn’t rained for more than half a month, and the dirt in the fields was dry.
Wei Yu’s sniffles were filled with a bloody stench mixed with earthy smell. But the smell made him feel a kind of happy catharsis.
He didn’t know how long he had been lying down, but suddenly, from the far side of the wilderness, a column of seven or eight people dressed as ordinary Han People appeared, rushing in his direction. When he got closer, the leader ran to Wei Yu’s side, helped him up, and stopped the bleeding for him.
Wei Yu pushed the future man away, and he got up from the ground, like a drunken person, staggering forward.
“Less master!”
Hu Yanli knelt down behind him. The seven or eight Xiongnu warriors who were traveling with him also knelt down one after another and called out to him in unison.
Wei Yu didn’t seem to hear it, and continued to swing forward.
Hu Yanlie got up from the ground and chased after him.
“Less host! Wei Shao already had a gap with the Young Master! Was the young master really willing to be restrained by him for a lifetime? How could the young master really not think of father-son blood relatives?
Wei Yu slowly stopped.
In the wilderness, the night breeze was fluttering, and under the dim moonlight, his back seemed to condense into a stone statue. Suddenly, he turned around and roared, like an angry lion, and punched at Hu Yanlie.
Hu Yanlie was thrown to the ground by his punch. He climbed up and said, “The young master is of noble blood, but now he is only the pearl in the clam, and sooner or later it will eventually be known to the world…”
Wei Yu swung his fist at Hu Yanlie’s chest again.
Hu Yanlie threw himself down again, spitting out blood in his mouth. He groaned, struggled to get up from the ground for the third time, and said, “Once the young master returns, he will make a meritorious achievement, and it is just around the corner…”
Wei Yu’s eyes were blood red, and he looked fierce, and pulled out Hu Yanlie’s waist knife and slashed down at him.
Hu Yanlie did not see the slightest fear: “On the banks of the Sanggan River that day, I fell into the hands of Wei Shao, if it were not for the mercy of the young master to rescue him, Hu Yanlie would have been buried under the sand of the bone river, and today Yan Yan could stand here?” The Huyan family swore loyalty to the king of the day, the young master killed me, and Huyan Lie was willing to die!
“Less master!”
The row of Xiongnu warriors behind him surrounded Wei Yu and knelt down in unison.
The blade was fixed on the top of Hu Yanlie’s head. The moonlight reflected a watery white light from the blade of the fanged wolf’s head.
Wei Yu gasped for breath, his eyes that showed the light of the sword were frantic, his shoulders on both sides trembled slightly, his throat slowly rattled, and suddenly he spat out a mouthful of blood with a “wow” sound.
“Young master—”
Hu Yanlie was horrified and hurried forward to help him. At this moment, his figure froze. He saw that dozens of steps away, there was a person standing. Qui Wei slender. The moonlight threw his figure to the ground, and he was motionless, and he didn’t know when it came, but he was unaware.
The man suddenly took a step and strode over. As it drew closer, the moonlight illuminated a face that Could be carved out even when hu yanlian closed his eyes.
“Wei Shao!”
He exclaimed, and the Hun warriors on the ground immediately got up, drew their swords and lined up in front of them, ready to go.
Wei Shao walked to the place seven or eight steps away, stopped, and his eyes turned to Wei Yu.
Wei Yu slowly straightened his waist, and looked at Wei Shao across the row of Xiongnu warriors who were blocking him.
The two looked at each other.
The barren grass beneath his feet was blown to the ground by the wind. There was the sound of Hu Yanli’s breathing, which had become heavy due to nervousness. In the distance, there was silence, only the whining sound of the night wind blowing through the mountains.
After a long time, Wei Shao said, “When did you start to communicate with the Xiongnu?” His
voice did not carry the slightest anger. The voice was calm. It was as if he were only asking about an ordinary little thing.
Wei Yu looked up, facing the deep blue night sky, and exhaled a long breath of air outside Yuyang City that brought the coolness of the autumn night, and closed his eyes.
“I’ll go see my grandmother and give her an explanation.”
He threw the waist knife in his hand violently, opened his eyes, and his expression had returned to calm, and he stepped away.
“Less master!”
Hu Yanlie shouted at Wei Yu’s back, seeing that he did not look back. He looked at Wei Shao again, his eyes staring warily, and finally he slowly retreated, and after withdrawing a dozen steps, he led the Xiongnu warriors to quickly leave, and the figure disappeared into the wilderness of the night.
Wei Shao slowly turned his head, stared at Wei Yu’s departing back, and suddenly rushed up to catch up, pulling his collar from behind.
“What are you going to give?” Confess that you and the Huns have been secretly in contact with each other? Do you want to kill your grandmother?
Wei Shao gritted his teeth.
Wei Yu’s figure froze for a moment and slowly turned his head.
“Even though you can ignore my offense, I have no place for myself. Grandmother is very kind and wise, and everything is left to her to decide.
His look was bleak, like the moon above the night sky.
Wei Shao’s face was iron blue, his teeth clenched, and he violently grasped the palm of the hand that was still wrapped in gauze, and with a heavy blow, he knocked Wei Yu to the ground.
“Unless I die, you won’t want to break into your grandmother and talk nonsense!” I don’t allow you to have two hearts!” Wei Shao
said.
……
Wei Shao was gone again.
In the middle of the night, Xiao Qiao, who could not wait for him, also sent someone, quietly went to the East House to take a look, came back and said that there was no abnormality, the lights in the East House were out, and the male Prince could not stay there at this time.
Little Qiao tossed and turned alone in bed, unable to think of what had happened after he sent Zhu Shi back to the East House, and had not returned all night.
She was a little distracted. The next morning, I got up early and sent someone to the office. When he came back, he said that Wei Shao hadn’t been to the office last night.
Today is the day when Qiao Ci and others resigned and returned to Yanzhou. Wei Shao did not return, and no one knew where he had gone, Xiao Qiao had no choice, he packed up on his own, summoned Qiao Ci to come over, and led him to the North House to say goodbye to Lady Xu first.
When she took Qiao Ci in, she originally thought that Madame Xu might know where Wei Shao had gone last night.
But Madame Xu was also apparently unaware of his whereabouts. Didn’t see Wei Shao walking along, asked Xiao Qiao. Xiao Qiao then told Zhu Shi to come to the room last night, Wei Shao sent her back to the East House, and then said that he would never return.
Mrs. Xu asked, “Yes in the morning.”Seen it at the Office? “Sent
people away.” Come back and say that the husband is not there. I haven’t been there last night.
Madame
Xu groaned slightly, then looked at Qiao Ci and smiled, “Today you return to Yanzhou, your sister-in-law should have given you a ride.” I think there was a reason for last night’s incident, and he had not returned at this time. Wait a minute, and your grandmother will send someone to look for it.
Qiao Ci said busily, “My sister-in-law must have been involved in something important temporarily, so I haven’t returned.” This time, there is a lot of nagging. My grandmother, brother-in-law, cousin and other people were very affectionate, and the boy was very grateful. Last night, I was fortunate to be practiced by General Li and others. This morning, my brother-in-law had something to do, so I didn’t have to send it to me again. Madame Xu asked
Little Qiao to leave him and talk for a while. When Xiao Qiao took Qiao Ci away, he sent someone to ask Zhu Shi and Gongsun Yang respectively.
Zhu Shi quickly came to the North House, saying that last night he heard that his son had returned with bruises and swelling on his face, and he was uneasy about going over to take a look, and then his son sent her back to the East House, and he left after she arrived. She didn’t know what had happened to him, so much so that he hadn’t returned all night.
When she spoke, she did not dare to look at Madam Xu’s eyes and kept her head down.
Madame Xu looked at her for a moment and let her go.
The person who went to ask Gongsun Yang also returned. He said that after the prince left the table last evening, he had not seen it. There are also no new arrivals in the Department of Emergency Accidents.
When Madame Xu was meditating alone, a servant woman suddenly came in and said with joy on her face, the male monarch had just returned and came to the old lady’s side.
Madame Xu was relieved. Within a few moments, I heard familiar footsteps approaching, and a figure entered the room, it was Wei Shao, who came in and saluted Lady Xu.
Mrs. Xu was busy getting him up. Looking at it carefully, as Zhu Shi said, his face was indeed scarred, and he couldn’t help asking questions.
Wei Shao looked at ease and smiled, “Last night I was very drunk, and I accidentally fell off my horse and was bruised.” However, there are some minor skin and flesh wounds, and my grandmother does not have to mind. Madame Xu was
suspicious in her heart, and seeing that he did not tell the truth, she would no longer ask about this. Ask him where he went last night.
Wei Shao said, “Yesterday, I was busy during the day, and there were many guests. Remembering that the government office had not finished, I wanted to dispose of it first, met an old friend on the road, and invited him warmly, but he was not ashamed, so he went to eat a few glasses of wine, did not want to be drunk all night, and only returned this morning. Annoying the grandmother is not filial piety to the grandchildren.
Madame
Xu looked at him and nodded, “Your brother-in-law resigned today, so you should go and give him a ride.” When you come, you are not welcome, and you should send more.
Wei Shao should have gotten up and left. Madame Xu looked at his back and suddenly said, “Why didn’t your cousin see anyone else since yesterday?” I heard that he didn’t come back last night either. He and Qiao Xiaogongzi have always been here, why didn’t they come to deliver it today? Where did he go, do you know? Wei Shao hesitated
slightly, then stopped, turned around and smiled, “Last night was really a mistake in eating wine.” Having thrown himself in the face, he forgot to tell his grandmother about it. The brother went to Dai County overnight last night. Because he was afraid of disturbing my grandmother’s rest, he did not come to say goodbye, so he asked me to see my grandmother to confess his sins on his behalf. Lady Xu was
concerned: “What happened to Dai County?” Does it matter? “Grandmother is
reassured that it is not a big deal. It was just for him to dispose of it himself. Wei Shao said busily.
Madame Xu groaned and smiled, “The hour is almost over.” And go first. Wei Shao
respectfully responded, and then turned around and walked away quickly.
……
Xiao Qiao waited left and right, he couldn’t wait for Wei Shao to come back, and it wasn’t too early to see the hour, although he left regrets, but it was not good to ask Qiao Ci and his party to wait empty, and they were ready to leave. Before leaving, he suddenly learned that Wei Shao had returned. Sure enough, after a few moments, I saw his figure appear hurriedly, which made me sigh. He was welcomed into the room and served him to change into his travel clothes.
Little Joe helped him get dressed, and saw him standing there silent, cold, as if caught up in some unknown world of his own. It was very different from when I was intimate with her before I went out last night.
Because of the last experience, this time it did not bother him at first. It wasn’t until he finally helped him tie his belt that he asked softly, “What happened to fu jun last night?” After leaving, I didn’t return overnight. I was worried all night. When she finished
asking, she raised a pair of bright eyes to look at him. Seeing Wei Shao, it was as if the soul had returned to the Seven Tricks, as if he had returned to God, oh, he lowered his head to meet her gaze, paused, and said, “Nothing big.” The tone was still very cold.
When Little Joe saw him like this, he knew that he didn’t want to talk to himself. No more questioning. Serve him and go out with him when he is dressed. Walking to the door, Wei Shao suddenly stopped again, turned around, stretched out his arms toward her, hugged her, Fang let go, and said in a somewhat apologetic tone: “Last night made you worry.” I’ll send you out of town.
Xiao Qiao smiled slightly and said, “Thank you Fu Jun.” There’s Lauf Jun. ”
