A cold light pierced Wen Fengxi's throat.

"don't want!"

I screamed in shock. Seeing that the sharp sword tip had hit Wen Fengxi's throat, I turned around and blocked Wen Fengxi's face.

Xie Feng's eyes were like a knife, and the sword was like thunder, and the cold light had almost pierced into my eyes. I was so scared that I closed my eyes and heard two sirens. A surging river flow was surging around, and then slowly calmed down the next moment.

Only then did I slowly open my eyes.

As soon as I opened my eyes, my eyes met the sharp sword tip, which almost hit my eyebrows. As long as Xie Feng's hand goes one more point, or I move it myself, maybe blood will splatter on the spot today.

The sword was close to me, and the surrounding river was windy and the water was surging, but Xie Feng's hand was as stable as a rock, and the tip of the sword was hanging in the air and it was still motionless.

I was so scared that I was sweating all over my body.

Xie Feng said coldly: "Let go."

Wen Fengxi was blocked by me, but one of his hands was still holding my hand tightly, without any intention of letting go. Instead, he grabbed my shoulder with the other hand and wanted to hold me behind him.

I felt that these two people were not as calm as they were when they were just talking. Xie Feng followed him, and he must have to ensure my "safety". He would never let me leave like this. Wen Fengxi, from the beginning, he wanted to rescue me from Jinling Mansion, but only took Nangong Lizhu away. As soon as he heard me talking about Liu Qinghan, he could not control his anger.

Xie Feng said in a deep voice: "I'll say it again and let it go!"

Wen Fengxi's teeth chewed and he grabbed my hand and tried harder.

The two of them were in a stalemate, but no one was willing to let go, and no one was willing to retreat. I stood between the two of them and felt that my hand was about to be crushed by Wen Fengxi's uncontrollable force. At this moment, the river wind became more and more cold, and the water waves around us rippled, causing our ship to shake.

My heart trembled too.

This will not work.

Not to mention how good Xie Feng's martial arts are, Wen Fengxi has already admitted that his strength is not as good as him. If he really wants to fight, the guard of Yangzhou City will only die here. Besides, Pei Yuanxiu is willing to let me come out to meet him, the premise is to ensure that I will not have any chance to escape. If I am really taken away by Wen Fengxi this time, he will never give up.

Wen Fengxi and Xie Feng are just two people, but if they fight here, Yangzhou and Jinling, which they represent behind them, will not be able to rest.

As Xie Feng said, it may only bring the massacre of the city ahead of schedule.

Just as they were tit-for-tat, I suddenly said, "I'll go back with you."

As soon as he heard my words, Xie Feng's gaze flashed, and the murderous aura that had already risen in his eyes dissipated slightly at this time.

And when I turned around, I saw Wen Fengxi frowning: "Miss Yan!"

I felt that he was still holding my hand and refused to let go. I smiled at him, but tears burst out again uncontrollably. For a general like Wen Fengxi, seeing a woman crying was like seeing her incompetence, and he hated her powerlessness even more. He grabbed my hand and refused to let go. I could only slowly pull back, but his sleeve was still grabbed by him.

I said softly: "Sir Wen, don't forget what you said."

“…”

"The Yangzhou City and the people in the city have been entrusted to Lord Wen."

"Miss Yan--!"

He gritted his teeth and called my name. The pain and helplessness in his eyes were beyond replenishment. I ruthlessly pulled my hand back, but he refused to give up and grabbed it again. He heard a "pull" sound, and my sleeve was pulled off by him.

I immediately glanced at the rag and looked at him again.

Wen Fengxi tightened the piece of cloth: "Miss Yan."

I raised my hand and stopped him from moving forward. Although Xie Feng had no murderous aura on his body, the sword was still in his hand. If Wen Fengxi really did anything else, if he really aroused his murderous intent, it would be really hard to deal with today.

I whispered, "Sir Wen, say goodbye."

After saying that, he turned around and walked behind Xie Feng on the side of the boat. It was not until this time that he finally felt relieved. He looked at Wen Fengxi again, then put away his sword and returned to the sheath, turned his head to the boatman and said, "Go back."

The boatman was already frightened by the tense atmosphere just now and didn't dare to take a breath. At this time, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, nodded quickly, and held up a bamboo pole to separate the ship from Wen Fengxi's ship.

The boat swayed and began to sail towards the south bank.

I stood in the center of the ship, shaking slightly, but when I saw Wen Fengxi and his boats stop there, I seemed to be unable to bear to leave, and it seemed that I would not want to leave. He stood on the side of the ship, and his hand was still holding the broken sleeves tightly, fluttering slightly in the river breeze, as if telling the helplessness of parting.

But his eyes, angry and firm, had a faint power that was conveyed.

My eyes heated up and I waved my hand gently at him. Finally, I turned my head and stopped looking at him. After driving for a while, the wind blew again on the river, and the boat shook even harder. Xie Feng helped me sit down.

He took a look again and the mist was dissipating, and he had swallowed Wen Fengxi and his boats.

He slowly sat on the other side.

It was a cloudy day, and it seemed like a gray hand covered the earth, blocking all the sunshine. The same was true for me, so low that I seemed to be breathless, especially under Xie Feng's gaze, I felt a sense of depression.

He looked at me for a long time and suddenly took a breath.

I thought he was going to ask, and my whole body became tense immediately, but he just took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and handed it to me, and said softly, "Pull it."

I subconsciously reached out and touched my face, but I wiped my hand moist.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! I don’t know whether I feel it, I burst into tears again.

After taking the handkerchief, I wiped my tears, but more tears began to flood the next wave. Xie Feng looked at me with a frown, but did not say comfort me, but sat quietly aside, waiting for my emotions to calm down.

After a while, he said softly: "I thought Miss Yan came today to persuade Wen Fengxi."

I looked up at him and said, "Has Mr. Xie put all his expectations on me?"

He did not deny it, and was silent for a moment, saying, "After all, it is the life of a city, and I can't bear it."

"Since I can't bear it, why didn't Mr. Xie speak out and persuade him?"

"Wen Fengxi's words are not as good as Miss Yan's words."

"What I said was not to persuade Lord Wen."

“…”

He was silent for a moment and then looked at me.

I held the wet handkerchief and said calmly: "Why can't I tell Pei Yuanxiu what you said just now? Wen Fengxiu is not afraid of falling behind the ages because the infamy cannot fall on his head, and because he is worthy of being upright. But isn't he afraid of falling behind the ages?"

Xie Feng said calmly: "Miss Yan, who is recording the history of the ages?"

“…”

I was stunned and didn't speak.

He didn't need my answer, and said himself: "It's the winner."

“…”

"As long as he wins, the pen to record history is in his hands. This war is not a massacre of the city, but a foolish and incompetent emperor, and the soldiers guarding the city are cowardly and afraid to fight, causing the lives to be miserable."

I suddenly shuddered: "You--"

He looked at me, his eyes as cold as water: "Ms. Yan asked him just now, but I was actually asking what he wanted to ask. Since he wanted to make this choice, he was destined. He probably really had to bear such a bad reputation."

I gritted my teeth and said, "Justice is in the hearts of the people."

Xie Feng said: "Human hearts are ignorant."

"There will always be people who are Qingming."

"How many Qingming people are there in these three zhang of worldly worlds?"

“…”

"Miss Yan is so clear that she will suffer so much."

“…”

"In this world, there are so many people who do not want to clear up in order to escape such pain. Miss Yan was originally from a famous family, talented, and received respect from so many people. Many times she lives less than an ordinary village woman. Isn't it because you insist on Qingming?"

I was originally in pain and conflict because of his words, but at this moment, I suddenly laughed.

He looked at me in confusion and smiled, for some reason, I could still laugh at this time, and I said lightly: "Mr. Xie is right. Many times, I live less than an ordinary village woman."

“…”

"I have always hoped that I could live a good life like a village woman, not experience anything, and just live a good life."

“…”

"But in fact, what I want is just the peace of the village woman, not the ignorance of the village woman."

He was stunned.

"Even if I really become a village woman one day and meet what you do today, I will not turn black and white because I am afraid of your knife of slaughter. I will tell you what I see and feel, and I will tell you your sins to everyone. The pen of history may fall into your hands, but the hearts of people are mine."

His eyebrows were frowning even tighter.

After a long silence, he looked into my eyes and said in a deep voice: "I still said the same thing. Will you really have the heart to watch that tragedy happen?"

I didn't look at him anymore, but subconsciously grabbed the handkerchief that had been wet with tears, turned to look around. On the foggy river surface, except for the boundless waves, it was slightly stimulating.

According to the previous agreement, our boat could just drive to the place where the big ship was docked, because the big ship also had to drive here, so there was no need to go to the south shore, but after reaching the waters, we did not see the big ship.

At this time, it was drizzling in the sky.

Although the winter in the south of the Yangtze River is not as whistling north wind and snowing as in the north, it is still very cold when it rains, and there is a biting cold feeling. Seeing my pale face, Xie Feng walked over and stood beside me, raised his sleeves and covered my head.

I didn't look at him, just sat there waiting quietly.

After waiting for a while, before the boat arrived, Xie Feng could not hold back and his breathing became rapid. He turned to look at the south bank. At this time, a gust of wind blew from the south and the water waves began to ripple.

The outline of a large ship slowly appeared in the mist and rain.

It's that ship.

There were other warships around him, and they immediately followed.

The boat was coming as it got closer and closer, the wind became stronger and stronger, and the ups and downs made our boat shake more violently. I looked up and saw a few people standing on the bow of the boat. Naturally, there were some familiar figures. The rain fell on my face, cold, and I quickly withdrew my gaze.

After a while, the boat leaned over and Xie Feng helped me onto the boat.
