Chapter 670: Turnaround

"Where did the people go?"

Wang Yan frowned: "Why can't you even catch an old woman." ”

The subordinates looked frustrated: "A team of wounded soldiers suddenly appeared, we were careless ......for a while" They couldn't have imagined that those wounded soldiers would be so powerful, especially the one who was the leader, missing an arm, but the steel knife in his hand was not ambiguous at all, these people were not afraid of desperate and cheating......

The subordinate swallowed: "We don't look at them on weekdays. ”

Those people were staggering and half-dead in the almshouse, but all of them were like red eyes, which made them lose a lot of manpower.

"The Gu family took the opportunity to escape, and they disappeared in a blink of an eye, and now the streets are so chaotic, even if we are willing to spend our efforts to investigate, I am afraid that there will be no time. ”

"My lord, what should we do?" It was already dawn, and the emperor's reinforcements were almost there.

Wang Tan said: "The emperor's reinforcements will come in from the south gate, and we will retreat while fighting, and go out from the east gate just to meet Jiang Congwen." ”

The first task of the forbidden army was to protect the emperor, and entering from the south gate was the closest to the palace, and they could not just meet it. On the contrary, the eastern city is inhabited by dignitaries and dignitaries, and if the dignitaries are flustered, there will be changes in this city.

"Put the Wang Hu brothers in, and tell them that before the army comes, they will rob as they please, as long as they make great contributions to the destruction of the city, they will not have to occupy the mountain as kings in the future. ”

The subordinate responded: "Don't worry, Wang Hu's people are asking for money and not their lives, even if we don't say it, they will come." ”

The capital is in such a mess, no one can take care of anyone, and the guards of those big families are useless, not to mention that they are now frightened birds, and when they meet Wang Hu, they can only be slaughtered.

"When they are done robbing, they will set fire," said Wang, "so that they will not be able to defend the capital." ”

……

"Take a break!" Hang took the cloth towel in Langhua's hand, "You've done your best." ”

Langhua's eyes were staring at Xu Songyuan tightly, although Xu Songyuan's breathing was weak, but fortunately he survived. The wound has been sutured, and if it works, the bleeding should stop soon.

"The medicine has been boiled. Gu Shiheng brought the medicine over.

Old Lady Gu said: "Feed it along the corner of your mouth, even if you drink it, it's good." ”

Langhua wanted to take the bowl, but his hands were a little numb, and his fingertips couldn't stop trembling.

"Let me come," Hang said, "I served your grandfather and know what to do." ”

Hang's calm gaze gradually calmed Langhua's heart.

It's okay, it's going to be okay, the hardest part has been overcome.

The sky was already bright, and the sun shone into the room, slowly driving out the darkness, and infinite hope rose in Langhua's heart.

Pei Si channel: "It's not so chaotic outside, the city gate in the south has been closed, the forbidden army has gone up to the city wall, and the people in the palace have gone to the east city." ”

The southern city was close to the imperial palace, and King Ning's reinforcements should enter the city from the east and west. If Wang Tan wants to receive reinforcements from King Ning, he naturally has to transfer his men and horses to the east or west, so the south is the safest now.

Pei Sitong looked around: "You bought this yard a long time ago?"

Langhua said: "This is left by Prince Shu, and Lord Shu told me before leaving Beijing that if something happens, you can come to this courtyard to take refuge." ”

Pei Sitong was surprised: "King Shu went to Taiyuan to welcome the prince, so ...... Shu Wangfu ......"

"After Prince Shu and the prince left, there was only Princess Shu left, just now I sent someone to ask, the clan is gathered in the courtyard of King Shou," Langhua said and paused, "It is said that the dragon vein of our Daqi is in the Shouwang Mansion, and the old Shouwang is already over ninety years old, although it is the vein of Gaozong, but after all, it is still the nine clans of this sect, even if King Ning enters the capital, he will not embarrass the old Shou Wang, let alone destroy the dragon vein of Daqi." ”

The royal family has seen the change of imperial power, and they are all very smart and know how to protect themselves.

"I heard that the capital was in turmoil, so I remembered the courtyard of King Shu, since it is for emergency use, it should be prepared with rice grain and medicinal materials," Langhua said and paused and looked at Pei Sitong, "But it is only two days, if the capital is besieged, I am afraid these things are far from enough, we should have planned earlier, during the Zhenjiang War, we relied on the grain stocks of a few squires to survive, but the capital is different......"

Pei Sitong understood what Langhua meant, the emperor was ready to defend the capital, the city gate was closed, and everyone in the city could only survive by storing grain, and the most prosperous thing in Daqi was the capital, that is to say, there were many people in the capital, and a lot of food was needed.

Pei Sitong said in a deep voice: "At this time, we should take as much food as possible from outside the city for later use, as well as the rice shop in the capital, and we can't let Wang Yan and the others start first," he stood up, "I'll take someone to do it." ”

Second Master Pei was a little worried: "Father...... There is a war coming soon, will we go out now...... If we can get out of town, why don't we go......"

"How far can we go? What should we do if we meet King Ning's people? With so many people in tow, how can we run past the cavalry, and besides, how can we run away without a fight," Pei Sitong said and stood up, "Since we know that we are going to go to war, we must make a good plan, so that we will not be led by the nose in the future, there are several courtyards next to the dock outside the field, which are used by merchants to store the grain that is transported, if it goes well, we can return to the city in an hour and a half, and we will not meet King Ning's soldiers and horses." ”

Langhua also knew that this matter was dangerous, but if he didn't take advantage of the chaos to do it, I was afraid it would be even more difficult in the future, and they stayed in the capital to wait for Pei Qitang.

"Zhang Tong can open the city gate," Lang Hua said, "If you see King Ning's soldiers and horses there, Dad should not fight with them, but return to the city as soon as possible." ”

Pei Sitong bowed: "I know." ”

Pei Sitong instructed Xiao Yi: "Take care of the family and mobilize more manpower in the outer courtyard." ”

Gu Shiheng sent Pei Sitong back: "I'll go into the palace to see the situation." He also had to tell the Queen Mother about the things outside the palace, so that the Queen Mother could think about it.

The two of them went their separate ways.

A lot of people left at once, and the room became quieter.

Langhua looked at Hang: "Mother, go and rest, I'll stay here with my father for a while." ”

Hang's face was very bad, and he looked like he was struggling to support it.

Langhua stretched out his hand to pull Hang's wrist: "I'll prescribe a dose of soothing medicine for my mother." ”

"I'm fine," Hang quietly pulled his hand back into his sleeve, "The army is in chaos, and the medicinal materials are not enough, so it is better to keep it for other purposes." ”

"Then go and take it easy," Old Lady Gu said, "Listen to Langhua's words, if you also fall ill, what should Langhua do." ”

Hang's eyes were blurred with tears, he didn't expect Langhua to recognize her and the master at this time, and the Gu family also acquiesced to Langhua's approach, she didn't know whether to be happy or sad.

"Okay," Hang said, "I'll go rest for a while." What she can do now is to take care of herself and not become a burden to Langhua.
