Everyone except me knows that I'm a broken sleeve

Chapter 107

Dayan's power in the world is divided, and Pei Mo, as the leader of Xichang, has a difficult task to complete.The task of controlling Mobei City this time was ordered by Emperor Qi himself to complete.The task is arduous, but it also proves Emperor Qi's trust in him to a certain extent.

But when he saw Gu Xiaoyong's smiling eyes, he couldn't think about anything.I just want to agree with full satisfaction, so that the smile in the other person's eyes will be a little more, and a little more, it will be like the sun shining around the other person.

The trust of the emperor and the arduous task were all left behind.

I don't know what method he used. Almost instantly, the people in the West Factory below all stopped their killing actions, and then retreated extremely quickly, forming a barrier to firmly surround the others. among myself.

The people in the rivers and lakes who fought against the West Factory did not dare to advance rashly. They held their weapons vigilantly and formed a confrontation with the people in the West Factory. .

Gu Xiaoyong pulled Pei Mo down from the city wall, and led him step by step towards the place where the crowd gathered.I don't worry about how many people's resentment and malice will be aroused when I get so close to the people of the court. They are like a pair of ordinary best friends, and the atmosphere around them is harmonious and at ease. The power is still beating you to death for a second.

Seeing Pei Mo's figure, the lord of the lonely city slowly condensed his calm expression on his face. He bowed his hands to Pei Mo solemnly and said, "Chief Xichang, I don't know that you brought so many men to our Mobei City. , what is the intention?"

"You know better than me." Pei Mo's expression was flat, "Xichang won't shoot and hurt people for no reason."

The lonely city lord's hand gradually clenched.

Mobei City is said to be a snobbery, but it was indeed affiliated to the imperial court very early on.As the wolves arranged by the imperial court to guard the frontier in the north, their tasks have been passed down from generation to generation.

Originally, Mobei City and the imperial court were in peace, but as Mobei City gradually grew, it became known to more and more people.This powerful wolf has become a watchdog in the mouths of various forces in the rivers and lakes. The malice and contempt in it are as real as they are, and they have always been attached to the heads of everyone in Mobei City.

The achievements of Mobei City cannot be separated from the support of various groups of people and nationalities, as well as the secret support and help of the imperial court.

But now that Mobei City is strong, it wants to break away from the court and become a real and complete snobbery, which is absolutely not allowed by the court.Emperor Qi had long planned to replace the city lord of Mobei, but this time he just ran into the ambitious Jiang Yao, and the two forces were ready to form an alliance without much conversation.

The reasons why Xichang attacked Mobei City were complicated and difficult to solve. They were born to be opposites, and they were born to have a battle.And the reason why there were not too many casualties today is because there is Gu Xiaoyong, who connects the imperial court and the snobbish world, here.

What if he is not there?Who knows when the next conflict will erupt.If Emperor Qi no longer trusted Pei Mo, and a more indifferent and unkind subordinate led the army over next time, it would undoubtedly be a catastrophe for Mobei City.

Gu Xiaoyong was obviously aware of the stakes involved. He walked up to the Gucheng Lord and whispered in a low voice: "Sir, it's best to resolve this matter peacefully. I believe you don't want to see the scene where Mobei City is razed to the ground." .”

As the emperor of the whole Great Yan, Emperor Qi is absolutely impossible to give in.Allowing a self-cultivated snobbery to rob his own territory and people almost touched his rebellious scales.

Although what Gu Xiaoyong said had the meaning of being biased towards the imperial court, facts are facts, and the benefits of forming an alliance with the imperial court must actually outweigh the disadvantages.Although their reputation in Jianghu may be a little bit worse because of this, but at most it is verbal splashing of dirty water, which makes them really hostile to Mobei City, but they absolutely dare not.

Thanks to Gu Xiaoyong being here, the two sides still have the possibility of a peaceful conclusion.If he is not there, Mobei City will definitely form a bloody relationship with the imperial court.

Pei Mo also came over at this time, standing silently behind Gu Xiaoyong, looking like his back spirit, taciturn, but always present.

The lonely city lord was still thinking with his eyes down, so Pei Mo touched something in his arms.

—a pastry he made himself.

For some reason, every time Pei Mo leaves the capital for Jianghu, he has to go to the kitchen to make a pastry like this, and then carefully wrap it in greased paper before going out.But most of the time he couldn't see Gu Xiaoyong, so he had to sit alone under the moon and eat the cakes he made bit by bit.

The bakery in the small alley in the capital is Gu Xiaoyong's favorite.

Pei Mo ate a lot, and after a long time, he didn't feel tired.

He hesitantly raised his hand to touch Gu Xiaoyong's back, and touched his arms with the other hand.

--cold.

The wind in winter is really too cold, even if Pei Mo put the cakes in his arms and tried to warm them up with his own body temperature, it would inevitably make them cold.

Pei Mo then hesitantly put down the hand that he wanted to touch Gu Xiaoyong, lowered his eyes silently, unwilling to speak.

Naturally, Gu Xiaoyong didn't notice the small movements of the people behind him. He looked around and suddenly frowned and asked, "Where's Jiang Yao?"

Just now the situation was a bit too urgent, so he went to help Gu Huaya, but he didn't expect Jiang Yao to be gone if he didn't pay attention.

"Take advantage of the chaos and escape." The lonely city lord said coldly, "Don't worry, he won't be able to escape far."

He watched Jiang Yao escape with his own eyes, but in order to protect the city residents present, he did not catch up.As his student, Yu Xueyuan must have arranged everything early on.

Gu Xiaoyong was drooping his eyes in thought, when he heard a clear voice from not far away: "Father is right, he can't escape far."

Everyone looked up and saw a beautiful and gentle woman standing not far away.Her appearance is extremely generous and beautiful, which is different from the exquisiteness of women in the Central Plains. Even if she doesn't have red lips, she can still look outstanding and glamorous among a group of women.

She is two or three points similar to Gu Huaya, presumably she is Gu Huaya's elder sister, Gu Beiju, the eldest daughter of Gu City Lord.

This is the first time Gu Xiaoyong has seen this rumored woman.

The demeanor around her is too clean, she doesn't look like a woman who has been married for a long time, but like a girl who has not yet left the court.

As soon as the Gucheng Lord saw her, his eyes softened, and he waved to her: "Beiju, come to me."

Gu Beiju nodded, and walked over slowly.

When she got closer, Gu Xiaoyong found that she was carrying a black cloth bag in her hand, and there was a ball-shaped object in the bag, which looked heavy.The scarlet hot blood dripped down from the bottom of the cloth bag one by one, smashing out large and small flowers on the floor.

The lord of Gucheng obviously also saw this cloth bag, he was stunned for a moment: "...is this?"

"Jiang Yao's head." Gu Beiju said lightly.

She has a transparent temperament and looks like a gentle and gentle person. She did not expect to kill someone so ruthlessly and decisively, without any hesitation.

Gubei Ju and Jiang Yao are well-known couples of gods and immortals in Jianghu, and their love is deep.Everyone is not blind, and if they can come to such a consistent conclusion, no matter what the two people are now, they must have truly loved each other in the past, and even cherished each other.

The lord of Gucheng knew that someone would stop Jiang Yao from escaping, but he didn't expect that person to be her daughter, and he didn't expect Gu Beiju to be so decisive.

Others don't know, but as a father, he has seen it with his own eyes. The eyes of his daughter looking at Jiang Yao are full of love and tenderness.

The owner of Gucheng has never understood why Gubeiju fell in love with that slovenly and crippled beggar. It was because the two met for the first time much earlier than he knew.

A few years ago, Gu Beiju and his friends went to the Central Plains for a trip.It was early spring, and the light rain moistened the whole land.

The emerald green leaves and wood-colored branches hang large and small, crystal clear water drops, which should fall on the ground with raindrops.Make big and small splashes.There are no pedestrians on the street, only two or three vendors hiding under the trees, chatting all over the world together.

Gubei Ju has lived in Mobei for a long time, and this is the first time he has seen such a beautiful and leisurely scenery in the Central Plains.She leaned against the window on the second floor of the teahouse, looking around curiously with her smart eyes, vowing to deeply engrave the misty and hazy beauty in her mind.

At that time, Jiang Yao was still the Fourth Shadow, and he was ordered by his master to come here to perform tasks.He was on his way in the rain, but the woman selling umbrellas by the side of the road saw him in pity, so she generously gave him a simple oil-paper umbrella.

?

The umbrella still had a trace of warmth, Ying Si held the umbrella, and the movements of his feet couldn't help but slow down.

When passing by the downstairs of the teahouse, the girl watching the scenery accidentally lost the jade she was wearing on her wrist.The jade fell on the simple oil-paper umbrella, made a dull sound, and then slid down the edge of the umbrella.

Ying Si subconsciously raised his hand to catch it, and the rain-soaked jade fell into his hand, feeling slightly cool.

Gu Beiju only saw a slender hand sticking out from under the umbrella, and the beautiful jade fell into the other's palm, which seemed to fit perfectly.

The man raised the edge of the umbrella slightly, and the moment his indifferent eyes met her, he seemed to be soaked in light.

Gu Beiju's cheeks were slightly red, and she said in not-so-fluent Chinese: "...I, my bracelet...Thank you..."

That was the first time.

It is also the heartbeat of two people.

Only later, after all, this momentary heartbeat couldn't stop Ying Si's endless ambition and malice.He betrayed that girl, and he also betrayed the whole Mobei.
