"Brother, at General Xiahou's banquet, I saw something and I don't know whether I should say it or not?"
"My dear brother, you can speak out."
Song Xin told Cao Zhi the poem and Cao Pi's expression changed. After hearing this, Wei Tong was surprised that he didn't show any frustration or surprise, as if he knew about it.
"My dear brother, Zijian does have the intention to make friends with me, but the donation of poems is probably not his idea. I guess it was the idea of Yang Xiu and the others."
"how do I say this?"
"Brother Xian, you don't know the ways here. This idea is just that the man next to Mr. Zijian came to test me and use me to deal with Zihuan."
"Testing? What does this mean?"
Wei Tong nodded and said: "First, it is to test my feelings, whether I am closer to Zi Huan or whether I like Zijian more. Second, after this test, Master Zi Huan did not dare to get too close to me. People around him may suspect that I am secretly having a good relationship with Zijian."
Song Xin understood somewhat and continued to ask: "Brother, what are you going to do?"
"Haha, none of us can escape this kind of thing. On the surface, the two young masters are in harmony, but in fact, they have gathered a group of fans around them. They all want to support their master in ascending to the throne, so that they can ascend from the dragon. After that poem donation Regarding the matter, the people around Mr. Zihuan will definitely keep a distance from me, and the people around Mr. Zijian will not have too much contact with me."
"Could it be that Mr. Zijian is also being taken advantage of?"
Wei Tong smiled and said: "Master Zijian has an innocent temperament. Although he is very talented, he is not deep in the city. And the people around him, such as Yang Xiu, Ding Yi, Ding Giao and others, are all quick-thinking and meticulous people. Then Maybe this is their arrangement. In the whirlpool of Xudu, it’s hard to tell when you will be taken advantage of, or when you will take advantage of others." He sighed at the end.
Song Xin nodded, deeply convinced.
"Brother, this is actually a good thing for me. Do you think that if I decide to get close to a certain party, will the other party regard me as a thorn in their side and want to get rid of me?"
Song Xin deeply agreed, "If you say so, it is indeed true."
This reminded him of the rabbits that grew up between the two camps in the original world.
Wei Tong continued: "Those high-ranking nobles, with family support behind them, cannot protect themselves, let alone you and me. Wei Tong is just from a small clan in Yingchuan, and you, my dear brother, have no family background. If you and I want to survive here, we can only be impartial, otherwise, we will be tolerated by both sides."
Only then did Song Xin understand why Wei Tong got along well with many soldiers but didn't get too close to anyone. It was because he understood his situation.
"Okay, dear brother, let's go back, don't keep them waiting too long."
The two got up and mounted their horses, slowly heading towards the direction of the car.
...
"Girls, where are you going?" Not long after Wei Tong and Song Xin left, Ajaan and several other women were surrounded by a group of strangers next to the car.
Wei Shu hid in her mother's arms in fear. Wei Yitong stared at these people coldly and angrily shouted: "These are the family members of Wei Ziming, the captain of the Yue Cavalry School. How dare you be rude!? Why don't you retreat quickly!"
Feipeng and Ajaan looked horrified.
"Hey, Wei Ziming? I don't know, I don't know you! Our brothers only know you, a big beauty, and a group of little beauties." Wei Yitong also didn't expect that the villain opposite him was not only not afraid, but also deliberately teased her with words.
"That's right, the few of us went out to do errands, and we didn't expect to meet so many beauties."
"Haha, that's good. Everyone deserves a share! The weather is so nice today, why not...hehehehe" The murderer rubbed his hands, stared at the women with a look of lewdness, and made a disgusting laugh. The sound comes.
After hearing this, several women felt ashamed and angry.
Wei Yitong's face was cold, and he led his daughter back to the car. He turned around and took out a sword. He unsheathed the sword with a swish sound and protected his daughter. He angrily shouted: "You still don't retreat! Otherwise, I will kill someone!" She said. Nervously waving the long sword from side to side, wanting to
Stop the assailant from approaching the car.
Several villains were stunned at first, and then burst out laughing, "Hey, she is still a stubborn beauty. Just right, sir, I like stubborn people."
They were not afraid of the sword in Wei Yitong's hand at all, but instead surrounded the car from three sides.
One of the thugs pulled out a knife and teased Wei Yitong arrogantly.
Suddenly, he stepped forward and swung his sword to knock the sword out of Wei Yitong's hand. But he never expected that this was just Wei Yitong's desperate attempt. The man only saw a flash of white light in front of his eyes, and then felt a pain in his throat.
The other assailants were shocked when they saw that their accomplice's neck had been wiped. He put away his previous joking expression and surrounded several women.
Neither Ajiang nor Fei Peng expected that Mrs. Wei, who seemed so weak, could actually have such a method.
One of the thugs pointed at Wei Yitong and shouted: "You dare to kill our people! I will not spare you today! But if you are willing to put down your sword and surrender, we can make your death more comfortable!"
"Bah! Thieves! They robbed good women and children in broad daylight. When my husband comes back, you will be killed!" Wei Yitong glared at them and scolded them.
"Hey! Don't eat the toast, brothers, this woman has some tricks up her sleeve, so be careful!"
Several thieves shouted and gathered around. Wei Yitong noticed that a murderer was staring directly at Fei Peng, so he blocked his body in front of her.
Suddenly, a villain took action and tried to snatch the sword from Wei Yitong's hand.
"Look at the sword!" Wei Yitong shouted and raised his sword to slash horizontally, but the murderer rolled back and dodged.
"Auntie!" At this time, a frightened cry shocked Wei Yitong. He quickly turned around and saw that a murderer took advantage of the situation and snatched Wei Shu away.
Seeing that her daughter was captured, Wei Yitong's natural maternal nature made her forget the danger for a moment, and she rushed over without hesitation, trying to snatch her daughter back.
However, the assailants seemed to be teasing her deliberately. They backed away and pinched Wei Shu's little face, "Hey, this baby is born with water spirit. When we are done playing with it, we will sell it to a prostitute, hahahaha."
Fei Peng was anxious in his heart and shouted anxiously: "Let your sister go quickly!"
Wei Shu was so frightened that she cried loudly, but the people passing by looked at her from afar, and no one dared to come to help. They hide and watch from a distance, and some good-hearted people even regard it as a show.
The timidity and indifference of the people around them inadvertently fueled the arrogance of these villains. They laughed and laughed unscrupulously. Wei Yitong finally couldn't help it and rushed over to take his daughter back, but every time he drew his sword, Wei Shu was blocked by the opponent. forward.
Worried about hurting her daughter, Wei Yitong became more and more timid.
