Chapter 147: A New Beginning
Tang Xiaoxiao and Aunt Liu didn't dare to stand up and alarm that one, and they also watched Mo Chen leave.
Not long after Mo Chen left, he heard a battle start on the other side of the city gate, and the shouting continued.
As soon as I heard it, something was wrong, either there was a fight, or something else was going on, such as the refugees outside.
Tang Xiaoxiao couldn't sleep, and Aunt Liu couldn't sleep, they were all worried about Mo Chen's safety.
They all had a very hard time that night, and no one in the capital must have had a very brisk time until the next morning.
There was no sound of fighting inside and outside the capital, and Tang Xiaoxiao looked out through the crack in the door, and the scene was shocking.
The street in front of the door was a mess, and the ground was soaked with blood and stained bright red. The bodies were lying on the street and no one was picking them up, and some of their arms and thighs were missing.
Aunt Liu also took it out to look at it, and couldn't help but vomit twice.
Tang Xiaoxiao looked back and continued to look around.
The two or three families on the opposite side also came out to take a look, glanced at Tang Xiaoxiao, and hurried back to their homes.
The door of Mo Chen's house next to him also "creaked" open, and a noisy voice came out: "If he doesn't come, I'll leave! Regardless of his big things, if he dares to neglect me, I will go to the emperor to reason!"
As she spoke, she came out of it, and when she saw what was happening outside, the girl was stunned, and then retched.
The subordinate who followed her hurriedly patted her on the back: "Madam, you better go in quickly, stand outside... Not good......"
The girl immediately burst into tears: "I want to go back!
The noise was non-stop, attracting the attention of many other people.
The subordinates over there couldn't resist the eldest lady, so they covered her with a cloak and hurriedly sent her away.
Presumably, Shangshu Mansion is not far from here.
Aunt Liu couldn't help but shake her head on the side: "It's really evil......"
Tang Xiaoxiao didn't speak, glanced at it again, and said to Aunt Liu: "Let's go back first, it is inevitable that we will encounter some trouble on the tile, and the sword has no eyes." ”
Aunt Liu nodded stunnedly, and the two returned to the small house and closed the door.
Tang Xiaoxiao kept observing the crack in the door, and suddenly remembered what Aunt Liu said about settling Xiaoshuang.
"Auntie, where are they Xiaoshuang?"
Aunt Liu looked around: "It should be around here, there are three of my houses around here, and when I left, I told someone to take them to the house to avoid it." ”
Tang Xiaoxiao was a little worried, but she didn't ask any more.
"Do you think Achen will be okay?
"Of course I don't know, Aunt Liu, you don't need to ask more, in this case, we just need to wait for the result, if Mo Chen is fine, he will naturally come to you." If something happens, someone will come to clean up the mess on the street. ”
Anyway, whoever wins will take the land in the capital, it's as simple as that.
Of course, Tang Xiaoxiao was also worried in her heart, but she knew that it was useless to worry.
Until the afternoon, when Tang Xiaoxiao was leaning against the door and napping, he heard a sparse sound outside.
She looked into the crack in the door again and found that it was a group of officers and soldiers carrying the corpses on the street, and the clothes of these officers and soldiers were exactly the same as the expeditionary force that Tang Xiaoxiao had seen in the border city.
Tang Xiaoxiao was very excited, as if she had seen hope......
The capital was saved, and in the afternoon of that day, drums sounded in the palace, and gongs were beaten on the streets to announce victory.
And the next day, Tang Xiaoxiao went to find Xiaoshuang and returned to the road with some necessary things, planning to go to a place where no one was there to live again.
Tang Xiaoxiao didn't have any of the things that the emperor rewarded, he kept them all, and all the things he took away were his own.
I didn't have much silver left, and I planned to go not too far away, and then start from a small shop.
The carriage galloped all the way, and it was already evening when it arrived at the inn.
Tang Xiaoxiao and Xiaoshuang were about to ask the shopkeeper for two rooms, when they heard someone behind rudely kick open the door of the post house.
"Two rooms!"
Xiao Er was very embarrassed: "Guest officer, there is only one room... And this girl ...... first"
Tang Xiaoxiao turned his head and was about to see if it was the shameless one, who was so domineering.
The moment she turned around, Tang Xiaoxiao was stunned, she never thought that Mo Chen would appear here.
"You..."Tang Xiaoxiao was excited: "Why are you here?"
A smile on his face: "Naturally, I came to follow my lady......"
An hour ago.
In the capital, the endgame had just been cleaned up, and Mo Chen took a few soldiers back to the palace to face the saint.
The emperor cried with joy, and hurriedly helped him up: "My son, you don't have to be polite, if it weren't for you, this capital and even the entire Daye would not be able to be saved." You are a hero, I want to be rewarded!"
"Father, listen to what your sons say. Mo Chen knelt on the ground and kowtowed steadily.
The emperor was on the rise, and even if he interjected, he was not angry at all: "If you tell me, I'll listen to it." ”
Mo Chen knocked his head down three times again: "When my mother died at sunset, I might not have been left in the world, but I escaped." To this day, I can still recognize my father, and I am content. It is my duty as a son to save you, but my son also wants to rely on this merit to ask for something, and ask his father to fulfill it. ”
"You kid, I will satisfy you what you want now, and you can come and listen to me. ”
Mo Chen looked at the emperor: "You agree first." ”
The emperor was a little puzzled, and the smile on his face disappeared: "Then promise you first, you can say it quickly." ”
Seeing this, Mo Chen said: "I want to ask my father for freedom, from today on, I will not continue to stay in the capital, the palace will be left to the daughter of the Shangshu family, if she wants to live, she will live, if she is not willing to marry." ”
"You!"
Mo Chen slammed his head on the ground: "Ask my father to be fulfilled!"
The emperor looked at this lost son, and undoubtedly it was best to keep him in the capital, but it was not necessarily all good.
This child has no mother, no relatives to help him, and his outstanding ability has a lot of prestige, which will have an impact on many things in the future.
The emperor pondered for a moment: "You don't have to bring nothing, I will give you a fief, you can still have fine clothes and food in other places, and you can also bring your wife." ”
Mo Chen kowtowed again: "Erchen doesn't want anything, but wants freedom." ”
The emperor looked at him with empty eyes, and if he still couldn't understand it, he was really blind: "You value that woman so much?"
Mo Chen responded sonorously: "Until death, I will not marry." The girl of the Shangshu family is arrogant, I don't want to snub her, I will give her up if I take one of the two. ”
The emperor shook his head, but he didn't expect that his most satisfied son would not be able to escape this beauty.
Mo Chen responded sonorously: "Until death, I will not marry." The girl of the Shangshu family is arrogant, I don't want to snub her, I will give her up if I take one of the two. ”
