"Don't worry," said the old lady Gu, "it's common for someone to flee in the event of a war, and it's not like we've never experienced such a thing. ”

The steward replied, "Yes." ”

Old Lady Gu looked at Xu Songyuan: "If someone really enters the door, you go first, and they can't treat me as an old woman." ”

Xu Songyuan shook his head: "The old lady listens to me, leave these things to me," he said and looked at Hang, "You help the old lady to find a place to hide in the backyard, we have enough manpower, we usually don't let people enter the door, if you really can't hold it, I will let the subordinates protect you to escape." Just in case, if you all change your clothes, they will not know what you look like, and when you mingle with the people of the city, they will be helpless. ”

Hang shook his head and immediately stepped forward to support the old lady Gu: "Old lady, leave it to the master here, we are female dependents who can't do these things." ”

When Mrs. Gu saw Xu Songyuan's determined expression, she no longer refutated, and looked at the housekeeper's mother next to her: "Bring us two sets of clothes." ”

Old Lady Gu and Hang changed their clothes and let people escort them to the backyard, and when they walked to the moon gate, Hang couldn't help but pull Xu Songyuan: "Master, you have to be careful." ”

Xu Songyuan clenched Hang's fingers: "Remember, no matter what happens, when you are asked to run, you should not hesitate to go out immediately, you have to go to Dongcheng, the Pei family is over there, and you can't say that you will meet the Pei family halfway." When the danger passes, we will be together. ”

Hang's nose was sour, and seeing Xu Songyuan leading people to the front yard, her heart was tightly pinched, but now was not the time to be vulnerable, so she helped Mrs. Gu up again: "Old lady, there are still a few doors in the house, you can tell me." ”

Xu Songyuan stood in the courtyard with people, listening to the shouts outside, although his face was calm, his heart was tightly clenched.

He had just gone to the yamen to inquire about the news, and he already knew the ins and outs.

King Ning did not die, he lied that Pei Qitang rebelled and gathered people and horses to enter Beijing to "quell the rebellion", but in fact he wanted to kill the king and ascend to the throne.

Fortunately, the emperor was not caught by the king, otherwise the current capital would have become the world of King Ning, and they would not have half a chance of winning. But even so, King Ning will try his best to fight.

In addition to dealing with the emperor, the Pei family and the Gu family are all thorns in King Ning's eyes, and King Ning will definitely send people to deal with the Pei family and the Gu family. If the "traitor" King Ning is caught, he can make a big fuss and use this matter to deceive people, which will be greatly disadvantageous to Pei Qitang and Langhua.

So he must guard the Gu family.

"Who." Someone suddenly shouted by the wall, and Xu Songyuan's heart sank.

In the blink of an eye, there were suddenly more than a dozen people holding sharp weapons on the wall, they were dressed in strong suits, their movements were neat, and the tip of the knife slashed towards the Gu family.

As soon as the family raised the stick in their hands, the whole person fell in a pool of blood.

This is not a bandit, their purpose is also very clear, that is, to enter Gu's house to arrest people, and whoever stands in front of them will die.

"My lord," Yun Chang said, "these are officers and soldiers. "He has been by Grandpa Guo's side for so long, and he has to deal with officers and soldiers every day, even if the officers and soldiers are disguised, he can recognize them at a glance.

Xu Songyuan nodded: "They are King Ning's people." ”

There was a smell of blood in the air, and the officers and soldiers had sharp blades and bows and arrows in their hands, which could easily take people's lives, and the Gu family guards only had sticks in their hands.

There is no other way, they can't back down.

Xu Songyuan instructed Yun Chang: "You must guard the gate of the inner courtyard." ”

It's time to fight hard.

……

Wang Tan stood on the city wall with his mouth pursed, some people attacked the palace, and some people dealt with the Pei family and the Gu family, this was King Ning's idea.

Although the guards in the capital have been transferred a lot, the remaining manpower is enough for them to deal with, especially since he failed to strike a blow, giving the emperor a chance to breathe and want to turn the situation around, and now he can only hope that the reinforcements will arrive in the capital as soon as possible.

"My lord, we don't have enough manpower, let's go to Pei's house or Gu's family first."

Wang Yan frowned: "Go to the Gu family." ”

The Pei family used to be a military general and a big family, there are many men in the family, I am afraid that I will not be able to gnaw it for a while, the Gu family is different, he has already inquired, there is only one old lady Gu guarding the door, and Gu Langhua cares about her grandmother very much, if she can catch the old lady Gu, she can use her as bait to deal with Gu Langhua.

"Be quick," said the king, "we must take it within an hour, and in case the court kills us, we will withdraw for the time being." ”

The subordinate answered, and disappeared into the darkness with the people.

……

Xu Songyuan's hand holding the sword kept trembling, not because of fear, but because he had lost too much strength, and his body was no longer obedient.

He began to regret that he only spent time with books and did not practice his fists and feet.

However, this kind of thinking made him feel at ease, because fortunately, a pair of children are not like him, they only know to study hard.

His ears do not listen to what is going on outside the window, and he only reads the books of the sages.

He was taught to be too pedantic, and the current Great Qi is not as prosperous as before, and what is needed more is talents who can be literate and martial.

He was right to let Kaizhi follow Langhua, and they would all be stronger than him in the future.

A smile appeared on Xu Songyuan's face.

In fact, this is enough, and he should feel relieved.

The Gu family is the benefactor of the Xu family, if it weren't for the Gu family to teach Langhua, he wouldn't know what the situation is now, so even if he dies here, he can close his eyes, because he has at least done something worth doing.

"Master Xu," Yun Chang said, "You should also go to the inner courtyard!" I'm here, you get out of here. ”

"Needless to say," Xu Songyuan said, "although I can't do much, I can also add an extra pair of hands." ”

Yun Chang admired Xu Songyuan very much, in his heart, these Wenchen would tremble with fear when they saw blood, it was really not easy for Xu Songyuan to stand here.

Yun Chang said: "They have no intention of withdrawing. ”

Xu Songyuan smiled: "They want to catch the old lady to deal with Langhua, which is a good thing." ”

Yun Chang couldn't help but be stunned, was Lord Xu stupid: "How can it be a good thing?" ”

Xu Songyuan said: "This proves that Langhua is safe and sound, otherwise why would they bother so much." "As long as they are safe, there is nothing to fear for him.

Xu Songyuan tore open his robe, wrapped his hand around the hilt of the sword, and stopped the blood gushing out of the tiger's mouth, his eyes glittered in the darkness, looking at the man in black who pounced, and raised his hand to stab the blade over.

However, more and more people in black still forced the Gu family to retreat to the moon gate in the inner courtyard.

Xu Songyuan felt the strength withdraw from his body little by little, and he gasped weakly, maybe soon he would die under the knives of those anti-thieves.

I saw the man in black rushing over.

Not far away, there was a sudden noisy sound: "It's inside...... Fast...... All in. ”
