Chapter 1345: Faint Monarch
As soon as Tie Kui walked out of the palace, his face sank. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info other people saw this, and they didn't dare to talk to him.
Liu Xiajiang was very close to Tie Kui, and stepped forward and said, "Brother Tie, let's go out for two drinks." "Perhaps, this is the last time we will drink together.
Tie Kui hummed and said, "Okay." It just so happened that he also had something to ask Liu Xiajiang.
The two went to the largest restaurant, Deyue Building. After entering the box, serving food and wine, he let people go down.
When there were only two people left in the house, Tie Kui said angrily: "So many people automatically asked to stay in the capital, but they just ordered me." I was asked to kill the homeless before, and now I am sent to death, I don't understand where I got in his way?" The two have a close relationship, and Tie Kui often complains in front of Liu Xiajiang. Of course, Liu Xiajiang also has a lot of complaints.
Liu Xiajiang also felt that Tie Kui was quite unlucky: "It's useless to talk about this now, you have to think of a good way to get out." The two came out of Tongcheng, and after so many years of friendship, he didn't want to watch Tie Kui go to death.
Drinking all the wine in the cup, Tie Kui said with a bitter face: "What way can I get out? The emperor obviously asked me to die, what other way can I live." After speaking, he slammed the cup on the table: "It's strange that I'm not a close confidant of the emperor, so the emperor has been on guard." Now, only to be cannon fodder. ”
Liu Xiajiang has relatives in his heart. He is not Yan Wushuang's cronies, not only has he been suppressed over the years, but his military salary has not been paid on time, and it is really not easy to survive until now.
Tie Kui raised his wine glass and said to Liu Xiajiang: "Brother Liu, my brother has something to ask you, I hope you can agree." ”
Liu Xiajiang responded: "You said, as long as I can do it, I will never shirk." ”
"The Lu family took Fang Hui and Fang Jia to Liaodong. I can't escape this time, so I beg you to follow the Buddha more of them in the future. "Do a full set of acts, Yan Wushuang must have sent someone to monitor him.
Liu Xiajiang responded: "Don't worry, I will definitely treat Fang Hui and them as my own sons." ”
After speaking, Tie Kui raised the wine glass in his hand and said, "Brother Liu, with your words, my brother can rest assured when he arrives under Jiuquan." ”
They all have errands on their bodies, and they can't drink for too long. The two drank a few glasses of wine and went their separate ways.
When he got home, Zhong Shantong looked at Tie Kui with a different expression and asked, "Master, what's wrong?"
Tie Kui said: "The emperor has already appointed generals, Ren Gao Dongnan is the chief general of the defenders, and I and Gui Sanliang are the deputy generals." He originally thought that Yan Wushuang would appoint him as the chief general of the defenders, but he didn't expect that things would be beyond his expectations.
Zhong Shantong was stunned: "Master, isn't Gao Dongnan Yan Wushuang's cronies? ”
Tie Kui shook his head: "I suspect that something has happened in the battle ahead, otherwise Yan Wushuang would not have named Gao Dongnan as the main general?"
Zhong Shantong was very puzzled: "At most, it will be defeated, what else can happen?"
Tie Kui shook his head, he just consciously thought that this was not normal: "During this time, except for the people who bought it, everyone else should try not to go out of the house." "After the Lu family's incident came out last year, Tie Kui took the opportunity to clear out a large number of people, and now the servants serving in the house are less than half of the original.
Zhong Shantong understood this and said, "Is the master worried that the capital will be in chaos?"
"It's not worrying, it's going to be messy. As soon as the news of the emperor's withdrawal to Liaodong came out, the capital would fall into chaos. After speaking, Zhong Shantong said: "In two days, I will pick fifty elite soldiers to the mansion." "These people are here to protect Xiao's mother and daughter.
Zhong Shantong said: "I hope King Ming can come in as soon as possible." "In this way, the situation will soon stabilize.
At noon the next day, the falcon was so frightened that his face changed when he knew about Dongluo County. Almost, just a little, Yan Wushuang's conspiracy succeeded.
Chi Ying asked, "What? Flooding Dongluo County?"
Falcon hummed and said, "The princess suspected that Yan Wushuang had some conspiracy before, but unfortunately we didn't find anything. Fortunately, the prince of the world is vigilant, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. "If the prince and the prince have three longs and two shorts, let alone attacking the capital, the northwest will be unstable.
Red Eagle snorted coldly and said, "What a vicious mind. Yan Wushuang also invested in it this time, and we didn't get any news from such a big deal. "It's not that the falcons are incompetent, it's that Yan Wushuang's plan this time is very secretive, and very few people know about it.
After speaking, Chiying said: "Boss, he actually released water to flood Dongluo County, which does not care about the lives of the people at all." Boss, we must publicize this matter, so that everyone in the world knows Yan Wushuang's true face. ”
Falcon nodded, "Yes." "Facts speak louder than words, Yan Wushuang can't quibble about this.
Red Eagle immediately went out.
Mr. Gao took his son Gao Qiang out to buy food, although they hid a lot of grain in the cellar, but in order not to attract attention, they could only go out to buy food every day. As soon as I came out this time, I heard the news of the flooding of Dongluo County.
Mr. Gao's face changed slightly, and he pulled Gao Qiang, who still wanted to run over and listen, and said, "Hurry up." ”
The father and son hadn't gone far when they saw a group of officers and soldiers coming over to arrest the two people who said that the imperial court had flooded Dongluo. Seeing this, the two men immediately ran, and one of them was caught running slowly. The officers and soldiers didn't talk nonsense, and directly cut off his head, and blood splattered all over the ground.
Seeing that his son's face had changed, Mr. Gao held his hand and said, "Hurry up." ”
The two did not go home, but went to the grain store. At this time, the grain has increased twenty times, but Rao is like this, and there is still no shortage of people in front of the grain shop.
The two bought twenty catties of coarse grain. Gao Qiang has a lot of strength, and it is not a problem to carry twenty catties of grain on his back.
It's a lot of chaos outside, and no one wants to come out if there's nothing to do, so there's no one on the street. Suddenly, two people came out of an alley, and although these two people were tall, they were very thin.
Mr. Gao and Gao Qiang looked at each other wrongly, and just wanted to call. The tall man on the opposite side took out a knife and said, "You see whether the officers and soldiers are coming quickly, or my knife is fast." ”
Mr. Gao grabbed his son, who was bruised, and said to the four of them, "As long as you don't hurt anyone, I can give you food." ”
Seeing Mr. Gao's interest, the tall man said, "We only want food and wealth, not your lives." It means that Mr. Gao and Gao Qiang will hand over all the money.
Mr. Gao escaped from his shriveled purse from his sleeve and said, "All our money is used to buy food." "Now the world is so chaotic, Mr. Gao's family is wearing coarse cloth clothes. In order not to make people suspicious, their family deliberately did not eat enough every day. So this will, the father and son look not only thin, but also sallow.
The thin man said: "Second brother, hurry up and take the food and leave." "If the officers and soldiers come, they will all die. It was already a surprise to get a bag of food.
Gao Qiang held the food and was reluctant to give it: "Dad, give them the food, what will the mother and the children eat?" If someone grabs food at any time, let Gao Qiang show reluctance.
The tall man put the knife against Gao Qiang's waist and said, "Do you want your life or food?"
Mr. Gao immediately said: "Is food important or is life important? If you have three longs and two shorts, how can I live with your mother? ”
At this time, there was a loud sound of footsteps not far away. The man didn't care about Gao Qiang, so he grabbed the food and ran away.
When the officers and soldiers arrived, the two were gone. Gao Qiang's father and son went home as if they were mourning and being approved.
The two neighbors next door came back empty-handed, and Mr. Gao was still supported by Gao Qiang, and asked, "Old man Gao, didn't you go to buy food?" There is a bad thing in the civilian area, that is, everyone knows what to do in a blink of an eye.
Mr. Gao said with a bitter face: "Don't mention it, the grain was robbed by gangsters." Fortunately, the officers and soldiers came quickly, otherwise they might not even have died. ”
After saying a few words, the father and son went home. After entering the house and closing the door, Mr. Gao immediately straightened his waist and stood like two people just now.
Seeing that the two of them were empty-handed, Yurong said, "What's wrong?" Hearing that the food was robbed, Yurong hurriedly said: "Sir, it's too dangerous outside now, don't go out again." "She didn't want Mr. Gao to go out, it was too dangerous. Although Mr. Gao is old, he is the backbone of their group.
Don't look at Mr. Gao is very calm in the face of the gangsters, in fact, he is also afraid in his heart: "I won't go out in the future." ”
Hearing this, Yurong nodded and said, "In the future, there is something for Ah Qiang and Ah Dong to do." "Ah Dong was the escort she hired, because she was left alone. The rest of the people who had families and had a good family were all dismissed.
After sitting down, Mr. Gao told everyone what he had just heard.
When Mr. Gao's daughter-in-law heard this, she asked in disbelief, "Father, is this true?"
Mr. Gao said with a solemn face: "The so-called groundlessness does not come to the wind, I am afraid that this thing is true." ”
"How can you do such a crazy thing? "Mr. Gao's daughter-in-law is from a civilian background and knows the suffering of ordinary people best.
Yurong also scolded: "Faint Jun." "Only a faint king can do such a thing.
Mr. Gao's attention was not here, and he said: "Dongluo County is under the jurisdiction of Baoding, Dongluo County has fallen, and King Ming will soon hit the capital." ”
Yurong immediately said: "Then do we want to avoid the Guogong Mansion?" Although the matter in Dongluo County made her angry, it was not as important as her own life.
Mr. Gao said: "The soldiers and horses of the imperial court are fleeing in despair, and I think that in a month at most, the king of Ming will come to the capital." When the time comes, we will take refuge in the Guogong Mansion. "Before King Ming came in, the capital must have been in chaos.
Yurong hummed and said, "Listen to you, sir." ”
After hesitating, Yurong said, "Sir, I want Yu Dong to go to my brother Jiancheng's." "Yan Wushuang is too busy to take care of himself, how can he care about the life and death of others. There is a mess on the road from the capital to Liaodong, who knows if you can reach Liaodong safely.
Mr. Gao had a good impression of Han Jiancheng, so he didn't object: "Let Qiangzi follow!" There are officers and soldiers patrolling outside from time to time, and this area is full of ordinary people, so there is no danger for the time being.
In the evening, Yu Dong and Gao Qiang returned. And Han Jiancheng also came along. However, Han Jiancheng did not come to seek refuge in Yurong, but to say goodbye to her: "Sister, I will leave for Liaodong tomorrow." ”
Yurong said with a bad face: "Jiancheng, Yan Wushuang has flooded Dongluo County, do you still want to follow him to Liaodong?" This is no different from suicide.
Han Jiancheng also heard the news, and immediately said: "Sister, this must be a rumor spread by the rebels. "Anyway, he never believed that the emperor would do such a thing.
Yurong said: "Ah Cheng, let's not talk about the truth of this news. Just talking about the current situation, do you think Yan Wushuang can hold Liaodong? Once Liaodong is lost, what will you do then?" At that time, there was no way to retreat.
Han Jiancheng smiled bitterly: "Sister, Ah Yao, they went to Liaodong, I can't leave them alone." "If Lu Yao and the child didn't go to Liaodong, he would have stayed. But now, he has no choice.
Yurong opened his mouth, and finally swallowed back the words that stopped him: "Is the silver money on your body enough? ”
How could Han Jiancheng have the face to ask for Yurong's money: "I have money on me." Now this situation makes him regret a little, regretting that he shouldn't have listened to Lu Yao's words and became an official. But at this point, it is useless to regret it.
sent Han Jiancheng away, and Yurong's whole person was embarrassed.
Ho City is far away from Dongluo County, and Yuxi got the news two days later than Yan Wushuang.
Yuxi frowned when he heard this and said, "Don't blame me for the fact that my right eyelid has been jumping for the past two days. She has been restless for the past two days, but she didn't expect something to happen. Fortunately, Qi Hao was vigilant and discovered Yan Wushuang's conspiracy in time, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to imagine what happened afterwards.
Si Bonian said: "Yan Wushuang is too shameless, he can do such a thing. ”
Yuxi didn't say anything bad about Yan Wushuang, but said: "If his conspiracy succeeds, then the benefits he will gain will be great." When the time comes, Yan Wushuang will not only not have to retreat to Liaodong, but will also force her into a desperate situation. However, such a method is also very troublesome, that is, it will make many officials and generals with a conscience frightened. In addition, once this thing is successful, Yan Wushuang will be stinking for a thousand years. Now that he has failed, he doesn't have to leave a stench for a thousand years, because he will definitely shirk and deny it.
Si Bonian was still very resentful: "Princess, this matter must be announced to the world, so that everyone in the world knows what a cold-blooded and ruthless person Yan Wushuang is." "As a king, he personally put his people to death, no wonder he retreated to Liaodong.
In fact, there is no need to announce it to the world, everyone knows that Yan Wushuang is a ruthless, unrighteous and cold-blooded person.
After speaking, Yuxi ordered: "Immediately go and summon Tan Tuo, An Zike and Shen Chunting." "There was a flood in Dongluo County, and they definitely wanted to provide relief.
Si Bonian hurriedly left.
Yuxi put down the fold in his hand, walked to the window, looked up at the sky and said, "This is the last time." "This is the last time to let Yunqing lead the troops to the battle, and he will not be allowed to lead the troops to fight in the future.
