Slavery (7)

When Leng Yu took the boy to the courtyard, Calm had already noticed it. She didn't even bother to pick up the crutches she had put aside, and walked out.

Seeing the boy coming back with his father, he didn't think much about it and greeted him.

The first thing he did to calm down was to look at the wounds on the boy's body, and make sure that the blood had stopped and the wounds were not opening, so he reached out and took the rabbit that the boy was holding in his hand.

Leng Yu saw her daughter's happy appearance and felt that it was the right decision to adopt a boy.

When he calmly knew that the boy would be his younger brother from today onwards, not to mention how happy he was.

However, their days did not return to peace, because the Xiongnu troops, which Leng Yu had feared the most, had indeed assembled outside the city as the people speculated.

Since three days ago, the king of the Xiongnu had already arrived at the nearest village to Chang'an City with his twelve iron horsemen.

The people here all moved away because of the epidemic a year ago, so the Xiongnu locked here as the first stop in the invasion of Chang'an City.

At this time, they not only had the Xiongnu king and the twelve iron horsemen personally testify, but also carried a large number of straw, horses, and armor, and made sufficient preparations for the capture of Chang'an City.

Leng Yu didn't find any of their movements, but they had already entered Chang'an City, but they didn't bring a large number of infantry, but the King of the Huns and the twelve iron horsemen came here, and at the same time, they were also wearing the military general's uniforms that had only recently been designed by the new dynasty, so they didn't cause any commotion in the city.

The king of the Huns and the twelve iron horsemen did not make any stop in the streets of Chang'an City, but walked straight towards the county lord's mansion.

After all, the county lord represents the attitude of the central government of a country towards the management of a city.

And this time, the Xiongnu king directly broke into the county lord's mansion to take down the core power of the central government of the Song Dynasty in Chang'an City, which was a blatant provocation to the central government.

However, after entering the county lord's mansion, the newly appointed county lord of the new dynasty surrendered without any resistance, and even withdrew all the armaments in the city and handed them over to the Xiongnu.

Now the king of the Huns and the twelve iron horsemen are sitting in the county lord's mansion drinking wine and eating meat, while the county lord is entertaining like a minion.

If Baixin in the city sees his current dog minion face, he will definitely be dragged out by people to parade through the streets.

There is no impermeable wall in the world, and soon this matter was known to Leng Yu, who lived outside the city.

At that time, the calm mother prepared a sumptuous meal to entertain the boys who came to his house.

At first, the boy was embarrassed and didn't move anything.

Calm and enthusiastic, he took the initiative to put all the dishes into the boy's bowl, and finally piled them into a small mountain bag.

At this moment, the housekeeper hurried over and whispered a few words beside Leng Yu.

After Leng Yu heard this, his face was originally flushed with joy, as if he wanted to get drunk, but now his whole face turned pale.

The child didn't know what was going on, but as a wife, the calm mother immediately noticed something unusual.

Although they had moved out of the county lord's mansion in Chang'an City for half a year, Leng Yu had always been paying attention to the qiqi in the city, and the housekeepers and servants in the family were still in the county lord's mansion.

They have followed Leng Yu for many years and are loyal, so even though Leng Yu is no longer the county lord, they still serve Leng Yu with all their hearts.

Leng Yu knew that something was wrong, and rushed to the county lord's mansion in a hurry.

When he resigned, he had already met the new county lord, and he seemed to be gentle and elegant, but at that time, he felt that such a white-faced scholar who only knew what was important was difficult to take on such a heavy responsibility.

Sure enough, the Huns attacked, but he did not resist, so he surrendered to the enemy and let him slaughter.

The calm mother had been worried about her husband's comfort, and could not sleep all night, and only fell asleep in front of the bench in the courtyard until dawn.

Last night, the mother had the three of them stay in the house, and instead of being with them as usual, she paced outside the house alone, and locked the house from the inside before leaving.

As the eldest daughter, Calm did not play with her younger brother as before, nor did she stay with her newly recognized brother, but kept lying in front of the window and peeking out of the door.

The boy who has experienced a lot of things also knows that Leng Yu must have had an accident, although he has only known him for one day, but he has accepted him as his family in his heart, so he is also very anxious.

Only his younger brother, who has never been outside the house and has always been 'pampered' by his parents in the yard, is cold and disapproving because the other two do not accompany him, so he plays with ants with branches in the corner of the wall alone.

Soon after, Calm saw a man coming in a hurry through the crack in the window, his face could not be seen clearly because of the light on his back, but his voice could still be heard.

The person who arrived was the housekeeper grandfather who stayed in the county lord's mansion, and now he sneaked here while it was dark and said something to his mother.

In order to hear clearly, Calm climbed out of a secret passage in the room.

This secret passage was originally an underground warehouse, but when the outer wall collapsed and led to the outside, it was then mesmerized by calmness and coldness as a way to run out and play.

Calmly heard the housekeeper and mother say that her father was imprisoned by the Hun King who lived in the county lord's mansion, and her first thought was to go to the county lord's mansion to see her father, so she did not explain to her mother, but secretly followed the housekeeper out.
