Chapter 212: The Scramble
"Fighting? You mean the fight for the throne? ”
Lou Qianchen said this, if Song Caiwei didn't understand it again, then she would be too stupid.
"How is this possible, if it really starts, this Vermilion Bird City shouldn't be so quiet."
Suzaku City is also a military town guarding Kyoto, if it is really Chu Qi and Chu Yuan competing for the throne, then there will definitely be rumors here.
But when they came here today, nothing had changed.
"The old emperor is not dead yet, they don't dare to act so rashly, but after tonight, this Vermilion Bird City will be lively."
"How do you know that after tonight, this Vermilion Bird City will be lively?"
It's really tiring to talk to Lou Qianchen, this is Song Caiwei's only thought now, if it weren't for the fact that her curiosity has been aroused by Lou Qianchen now, she would definitely beat Lou Qianchen fat.
"Because the old emperor will die tonight, don't ask me how I know, that's because someone is terminally ill in the old emperor, and now he is hanging for a breath, as long as the old emperor dies, soon the two sides will fight, don't ask me about the old emperor's will, do you think it will be useful to have a holy decree?"
"Then we should pack up our things and leave quickly, or we won't be able to leave tomorrow."
Lou will not joke about this, if this is really true, if it is true, it will be better if he doesn't leave now, so after thinking about it, Song Caiwei immediately stood up and wanted to inform everyone.
"It's useless, it's useless when you leave, it's better to stay in the city safely, as long as the two sides fight, the news will spread soon, and there will definitely be a war near the capital at that time, you go now, how far can you go, if you really encounter a war between the two armies on the road, it is estimated that you will die faster, you better wait here, believe me, and things in the capital will definitely come to an end tomorrow night."
"That'...... Then stay here, thank you this time. ”
Hearing Lou Qianchen say this, Song Caiwei felt that it was not unreasonable, so she accepted Lou Qianchen's suggestion, and then politely thanked him.
"Thank you, we will be a family soon, and the family will say thank you."
"Huh, family? Then you can take advantage of it. ”
Gently hooked the corners of her mouth, looking at Lou Qianchen with a look of being beaten up, Song Caiwei became angry, snorted, and raised her feet as if walking out.
But as soon as I walked to the door, I remembered: "Hey, no, this is my room, you, hurry up and get out of me." ”
Song Caiwei was really confused by Lou Qianchen, and when she realized it, she saw Lou Qianchen covering her mouth and snickering behind her.
"I'll go, I'll go."
Seeing that Song Caiwei was so angry, Lou Qianchen didn't dare to annoy her easily, so while laughing, he jumped out of the window.
"Oh, by the way, I got news not long ago that Gu Yan was already on his way back to Beijing, and it seems that he was here to support Chu Qi."
Song Caiwei's anger had not subsided, and she saw Lou Qianchen stretching out her neck again, lying on the window and talking to Song Caiwei, and disappeared as soon as she finished speaking.
Gu Jiajun has always been neutral, and Song Caiwei didn't understand why Lou Qianchen said that Gu Yan was here to help Chu Qi.
After thinking about it, because she understood Gu Yan's personality, Song Caiwei couldn't figure it out.
But this matter is not something that she and a peasant girl are thinking about, she is just standing in the perspective of a friend now, hoping that Chu Qi can win.
Things turned out to be as Lou Qianchen said, there was a death knell in the imperial city at three o'clock, and then the death knell sounded the same number of times in Vermilion Bird City.
"Wei girl, what's wrong? Why does this bell keep ringing again? ”
Su lived next door to Song Caiwei, so as soon as the bell rang, Su woke up and came to Song Caiwei's room.
"Xiaoyu, you go and call all the big guys over, I'll discuss something with everyone, and you can go to the kitchen in a while to prepare some food and water that we can eat for a day."
Without answering Su's words, Song Caiwei turned her head and instructed Xiao Yu first.
Although Xiaoyu has been with Song Caiwei for a short time, she knows what to ask and what not to ask, so she was only stunned for Song Caiwei's words, and then went out to call someone.
"Wei'er, will Chu Qi and Chu Yuan really fight?"
Listening to the cries of some people on the street outside, Hongmei knew that this was indeed the death knell sounded after the emperor's death. The northern land has always been far away from the emperor, so he doesn't care so much about whether the emperor dies or not, but about who is the emperor, the big guy is still selfish, and he is on Chu Qi's side.
But in this situation on the cusp of the storm, even if there are no outsiders now, Hongmei doesn't dare to say anything.
As soon as Hongmei's words were asked, before Song Caiwei could answer, she heard a commotion in the distance, needless to say that there was a fight in the capital.
The group gathered around Song Caiwei's house, and Xiaoyu also prepared the day's food.
After dawn, the war continued, and the capital was already in flames, crying and wailing, but there were no fugitives in all directions.
I think it should be that the gate of the capital is closed, and those people can't escape, it's really hard for those people, but the change of dynasty, bloodshed and casualties are inevitable, and no one can stop it.
The people of the capital couldn't escape, but the people of Suzaku City packed up their things one after another and fled in all directions like a great enemy.
"Miss, the innkeeper said he was running for his life, so let's leave quickly."
Everyone in the room was nervous, and none of them proposed to leave, because Song Caiwei spoke, and the big guys naturally trusted her. But at this moment, Xiao Yu suddenly broke in in a hurry, and the big guys all turned their heads to look at her.
"This is 20,000 taels of silver tickets, tell the innkeeper that I bought it here."
"Yes."
bought this inn for 20,000 taels, and the boss made a lot of money, so soon Xiaoyu took the house deed and land deed and went upstairs.
"Thankfully, Mademoiselle had the foresight to let me bring some food, or we would all be starving, and everything we had to eat in the kitchen would have been taken from us now."
As he spoke, Xiao Yu stared at Song Caiwei with bright eyes, and his heart was full of admiration for Song Caiwei.
"Okay, let's stay in the house now, there's nothing to do, try not to go out."
Lou Qianchen has already said that this war will end before sunset at the latest today, and Song Caiwei is still waiting for this period of time, but she is still worried now.
Because she had known Chu Qi earlier, in fact, Song Caiwei also hoped that Chu Qi could defeat Chu Yuan.
But who knows the final result, originally Song Caiwei wanted to go to the capital by herself to have a look, but looking at the room of people, all of them were helpless, for their comfort, Song Caiwei had to dispel this idea.
It's hard to get through the day, especially when you're anxious.
But soon, when the sun was about to set, the hustle and bustle in the capital finally came to an end. (To be continued.) )
