350,000 horsemen approached the city, and as soon as the news came out, the entire Qiantang people were panicked. The dignitaries and nobles wanted to escape from Qiantang, and those who couldn't escape took refuge in the countryside. The Northwest Army was more lenient to the peasants who farmed, and once the city was broken, the countryside was safer than the city.

Mu Boxi said to Yu Baojia with a worried face: "Brother-in-law, we only have thirty-five people now. "They don't have any advantages other than strong walls. However, no matter how strong the city wall is, the combat effectiveness of the soldiers cannot keep the city.

Yu Baojia said in silence: "Ah Xi, this battle will be handed over to you." He was going to go to Yongcheng in the evening and then take a boat into Beijing.

Mu Boxi is not stupid, how can he not understand the meaning of Yu Baojia's words. He was prepared when he was in Changshui, and he naturally won't back down now. Mu Boxi said: "Brother-in-law, once the news of your absence in Qiantang spreads, the city will not be able to be saved immediately. "The boss escaped, and the soldiers below didn't continue to fight hard.

Yu Baojia said: "As long as you cooperate, no one will find out within ten days." "Anyone who is in a high position or in danger will find a substitute for himself, and Yu Baojia is no exception, there is a person who looks very similar. After all these years of training, this person behaves a little like a god. Of course, it's easy for people around you to spot.

Mu Boxi was stunned for a moment and said, "Brother-in-law, did you know from the beginning that you couldn't win this battle." Because Mu Boxi had the idea of fighting to the death, he didn't even think about running away after defeat.

Until now, Yu Baojia no longer concealed Mu Boxi: "The imperial court was dragged down by the war in Tongcheng, and it couldn't send troops and horses to reinforce us." Relying only on our Jiangnan troops, we can't compete with Yunqing at all. "If the previous plan was successful and Yun Qing died, then he would still be the majestic governor of Jiangnan, but unfortunately, the plan failed.

Mu Boxi was silent and asked, "Is my brother-in-law going to join Yan Wushuang?"

Yu Baojia nodded and said, "Now only Yan Wushuang can compete with Yunqing." After a pause, Yu Baojia said: "Even if Yunqing attacks the capital in the future, he can still retreat to Liaodong." "Liaodong is Yan Wushuang's lair, and it is not so easy for Yunqing to occupy Liaodong.

Mu Boxi said: "Brother-in-law, Yan Wushuang is not a reliable person. "Yan Wushuang's moody, cold-blooded and ruthless temperament has long spread throughout the world.

Yu Baojia said: "After so many years of hard work, it's time to take a break. As long as he handed over the treasure and then closed the door to live his own small life, Yan Wushuang would not kill him no matter how he could.

When Mu Boxi heard this, he swallowed everything he wanted to say in his heart: "Brother-in-law, let Ah Yuan go to the capital with you, and Ah Arsenic stay!" Mu Boxi only has two sons-in-law, and no concubines. He didn't want his two sons to go to the capital, and if anything happened, his two sons would all be folded inside.

Yu Baojia did not object: "You can decide this matter!" He was also reluctant to leave Qiantang, this is the place where he has lived for decades, but the situation is forced to make it impossible if he does not leave.

That night, Yu Baojia left Qiantang with a few henchmen and went to Yongcheng.

Because the news was well hidden, the intelligence officers in the northwest did not find out until the third day after Yu Baojia left. On the same day, there were rumors outside that Yu Baojia had abandoned the city and fled to the capital.

In order to prevent the army from being unstable, Yu Baojia's stand-in came out on the fourth day and showed his face. This appearance attracted assassins, and the powerful guards had been taken away by Yu Baojia, and the stand-in was assassinated immediately.

Ho Cheng receives the news of Qiantang's victory. According to Xu Wu's estimate, not to mention that it would take at least ten days and eight days to take down Qiantang in half a month, but he didn't expect that it would only take five days to take down Qiantang.

Yuxi had already received the news that Yu Baojia had left Qiantang and said: "The boss has fled, how can the soldiers below be willing to work hard." It's also that we got the news too late, and it won't take five days to get the news sooner. ”

Qiantang was defeated, and Xu Wu, the other cities that had not yet been captured, did not take it to heart, and now there was only one thing left. Xu Wu said: "Princess, I have received reliable news that Yu Baojia has accumulated tens of millions of silver!"

Yuxi shook his head and said, "With the addition of valuable items such as jewelry and antique calligraphy and paintings, I'm afraid it will have to be doubled." "Yu Baojia wants to raise so many soldiers and horses, and this soldiers and horses are the most expensive, so Yuxi thought that Yu Baojia had accumulated three or five million taels of silver, which was very good, but he didn't expect to save tens of millions of silver. It can only be said that Jiangnan is worthy of being the richest place in the world.

Xu Wu said: "I only hope that the troops and horses sent by Qiu Ye can catch up with them." "Even if it's only thirty percent, they can get four or five million.

Yuxi said: "It depends on God's meaning. "Fujian has already sent troops a few days ago, and it should be able to catch up according to the time, but the water is not as good as the land, and there are many changes at sea. Whether you can get this huge amount of money is really uncertain.

Xu Wu immediately said: "God is on the side of justice. ”

Yuxi smiled and said, "We don't have the final say in this matter. "Speaking of which, God is actually very kind to them.

Knowing that Qiantang was down, Zao Zao was so excited: "Mother, is Dad coming back soon?" Dad has been away from home for more than four months.

Yuxi shook his head and said: "It's not so fast, it's just a matter of laying down Qiantang now, and there are still a lot of things to deal with in the future." I won't be back until November at the earliest. Later, it's going to be the end of the month. "Fight down, there are follow-up things to deal with.

Liu Er couldn't help but exclaim: "So long?"

Zao Zao complained: "Mother, it's all you, if you let me follow my father, I can still help my father!"

Yuxi was in a good mood and said with a smile: "Help your father? ”

Zao Zao snorted: "Mother, you just look down on people." ”

Brother You pressed his stomach and said, "Mother, eldest sister, my stomach is hungry, let's talk about it after eating, okay?"

After eating, Ok-hee took her six children for a walk in the garden. This time, Liu Er didn't talk about the topic of playing the piano very interestingly, but obediently followed Yuxi's side.

Zao Zao glanced at Brother Hao'er, and then said boldly: "Mother, since my father can't come back until the end of the year, will you let me go to Jiangnan?"

Yuxi didn't think about it and said: "Before you turn thirteen, you can't go anywhere, learn your skills at home." ”

Zao Zao looked at Brother Hao as if asking for help. Brother Hao shook his head, saying that he couldn't help himself, and his father was the only one who could explain her mother.

When I returned to the courtyard, I saw the housekeeper in the inner courtyard of the Han family. The mother-in-law said to Yuxi: "Princess, the old lady is sick and wants to see the princess." After saying that, the mother-in-law lowered her head. Who doesn't know that the princess is very busy, but the old lady doesn't know how to be considerate at all, and she has to annoy the princess whenever she has something.

In fact, many things were stopped by Lu Xiu, but in the case of being sick and wanting to see her daughter, Lu Xiu was not easy to stop.

Brother You said impatiently: "Why is my grandmother always sick twice in three days? "Finally, his mother was ready to rest, and she was tossed again.

Brother Hao said with a cold face: "Ayou, I have talked in the future." "If this word spreads, it must not be said that Brother You'er has no respect for his elders. It is the responsibility of parents that children are not good.

Yuxi asked: "Ayou, do you want to see your mother when you are sick in the future, and you also think that your mother is pretending to be sick?" Yuxi said this, his expression was very calm, and he did not fluctuate at all.

As soon as Ayou saw Yuxi's expression, he knew that Yuxi was angry. Ayou was actually very afraid that Yuxi would be angry, so he immediately lowered his head and admitted his mistake: "Mother, I was wrong." ”

Yuxi said: "Write the interpretation of filial piety, loyalty, courtesy, righteousness, and shame twenty times at night. ”

Brother You hung his head and whispered, "Yes." ”

After Yuxi said this, he said to Zao Zao and Brother Hao: "You go with me to visit my grandmother." ”

When he entered the upper courtyard, Brother You smelled a strong smell of medicine, and Brother You knew that his grandmother was really sick. However, the expression on Brother You'er's face did not change, and he did not feel guilty. In Brother You'er's mind, there is only his family, and he doesn't care about the others at all.

Lu Xiu heard that Yuxi had brought the children over, and hurriedly walked out of the house to stop them: "Can't you let the children in, what if you get sick?"

Yuxi said: "It's okay, just let them not come near later." "Since you're here, you're definitely going to go in. Zao Zao is in good health, Yuxi is not worried, but Liu Er is not sure, but Liu Er alone does not look good outside.

Lu Xiu nodded.

The six Zao Zao sisters and brothers greeted the Qiu family, said a few words and went out. Walking to the door, Brother You turned his head and saw Qiu Shi holding Yuxi's hand, and his brows were furrowed. I'm afraid that my grandmother will be sick and give them away, so I'm not afraid of giving my mother too sick.

Brother Rui pulled Brother You'er's arm and said, "Let's go, go back early, otherwise I won't be able to finish today's schoolwork." "The homework will definitely be completed, but Brother You'er was punished today. If I don't write it sooner, I guess I won't finish it today.

People are the most vulnerable when they are sick, and whenever they are sick, Qiu Shi thinks about his two sons. Qiu Shi asked: "Yuxi, I heard that you have sent an official letter from you to relieve the governor of Shanxi, is he going to stay in Hocheng in the future and not leave?"

Yuxi smiled and said, "Mother, whether the eldest brother stays in Ho City depends on his own intentions." "Yuxi didn't plan to keep Han Jianming in Ho City. If you don't take advantage of the strength of your body now to accumulate qualifications, you won't have a chance in the future. However, if Han Jianming is willing to stay in Ho City and not let go, then she will not force it, but this possibility is very low.

Qiu Shi said: "Yuxi, just let your eldest brother stay in Ho City!" The two sons are not around, and the family is old, weak, sick and disabled, which always makes Qiu's heart hang. Lu Xiu began to know Qiu's thoughts, and she couldn't cry or laugh. She didn't know what her mother-in-law thought, Pingxi Wangfu was next to it, who ate the idea of the ambitious leopard daring to fight them.

Yuxi shook his head and said, "This matter has to be decided by the eldest brother." Mother, you also know the character of the eldest brother, if I force him to stay in Ho City, he will definitely blame me. ”

Qiu Shi said with tears in his eyes: "My body is getting worse and worse, if I die one day, I'm afraid I won't be able to see the last side." "When you're sick, it's easy to be cranky.

Yuxi hurriedly relieved: "What is my mother talking about, the doctor said, it's no problem to live for another twenty or thirty years." Mother, don't think nonsense, take care of your illness. If you really don't want your big brother to go out, you can talk to him when he comes back. ”

Qiu's tears fell to the ground, and his face was sad: "When did your eldest brother listen to me?" Since the child was sensible, she listened to her son.

Yuxi thought for a while and said: "In this way, mother, you talk to the eldest brother first, if the eldest brother insists on being released, then you will go to the post with him." ”

Yuxi actually wanted to let Han Jianming go to Jiangnan to serve as the governor, but this matter had to be discussed with Yunqing. Although Yun Qing has never refused her appointment of officials, she will not say anything until Yun Qing agrees.

When Lu Xiu heard Yuxi's words, his heart moved. If the Qiu family can follow Han Jianming to take office, it will be a good thing for her. Because of this, she can take her son to Shudi.

Qiu's was very moved, and she was afraid of being complained about delaying her son's future if she didn't let her son go, so it was a good idea to follow her son to take office: "What if your eldest brother doesn't agree?"

Yuxi smiled and said, "Don't worry, mother, if the eldest brother doesn't agree with me." "There has been a saying in the capital that Jiangnan raises people. Therefore, many people who are not in good health and have conditions will go to Jiangnan to recuperate. If Han Jianming was really appointed as the governor of Jiangnan, letting the Qiu clan go with him would be equivalent to letting her go there to recuperate, and Han Jianming had no reason to refuse.

Qiu Shi hesitated and said, "Yuxi, your sister-in-law has been making a lot of trouble since she heard that the eldest young master of the Feng family had made a marriage, or you should go over and see her and enlighten her." ”

Yuxi said with a smile: "Sister-in-law is Qiqi's mother-in-law, what do she think about Qiqi's family affairs, how can I meddle as a married daughter?" Although Qiu's is not her mother-in-law, she has taken care of her since she was a child, if it weren't for Qiu's, she might have become a pile of white bones; Therefore, filial piety to the Qiu clan he is willing. But Ye is such an ungrateful person, she is unwilling to care.

Seeing that the Qiu clan wanted to say something more, Lu Xiu hurriedly interjected: "Mother, if you don't talk about Yuxi in this matter, even I can't interfere." Mother, won't the eldest brother be back soon? Let the eldest brother tell the sister-in-law about this when the time comes. "Lu Xiu actually knew why the Qiu clan wanted to find Yuxi when something happened. The son is not around, and the daughter is capable, so naturally she will look for her daughter if she has something. But I don't want to think about it, Yuxi is a married person, and he has to be busy with so many big things every day, where can he have time to take care of these trivial household chores of the Han family.

Qiu Shi sighed and said, "Then wait for your eldest brother to come back and solve this matter!"
