After Dongxue received the order, Qin Shu's gaze fell on Liang Shilan again.

At this time, Liang Shilan had also recovered from the panic, and she suppressed her suspicion and dissatisfaction and asked, "Mrs. Tai, are you ...... What do you mean by that? Why don't the concubines understand? ”

"Don't understand? What's not to understand about this. Qin Shu regained her lazy appearance, looked at her and said lightly, "There is a way that Ming people don't say dark words, and no one should treat anyone as a fool." Your plan, I also see it clearly, but unfortunately, I don't accept this ambiguous choice, no one can take all the benefits, either go, or stay, after leaving, I still want to come back, heh, there is no door. ”

Liang Shilan didn't expect Mrs. Tai to say it so bluntly, her face was a little unbearable, and at the same time, she was also a little struggling in her heart, wondering if she had done something wrong before.

But this idea was quickly rejected by her.

The fact that she planned to go back to her parents' home for refuge was not a whim, but the result of careful consideration.

When she first received the news that Song Liangxiu led the army to attack Yingtian, she already had this idea.

What's more, things have already come to this point, how could she be frightened away by Mrs. Tai's words!

Liang Shilan calmed herself down, straightened her back, lowered her eyes, and said as if respectfully: "Mrs. Tai's words made the concubine extremely frightened. However, the concubine didn't think that it was a terrible crime to go back to her parents' house to serve the sick. If Mrs. Tai insisted on thinking so, the concubine would have nothing to say. ”

Even if everyone knew what it was, she wouldn't answer that conversation anyway.

Qin Shu saw that Liang Shilan was still pretending to be confused, and a trace of sarcastic laughter overflowed on her lips, but she didn't bother to talk to her in vain.

Liang Shilan also knelt silently on the ground, and the room instantly became extremely quiet.

It wasn't until the winter snow returned that the silence was broken.

Dong Xue glanced at Aunt Liang, who was kneeling on the ground, but her face was stubborn and firm, and stepped forward and replied: "Mrs. Tai, the slave maid has already ordered them to gather in the front yard, and a few aunts have also sent someone to inform them." ”

Qin Shu nodded slightly, waved her hand, asked her to step aside, and said to Liang Shilan, who was still kneeling on the ground: "I don't want to check if your mother is really sick enough to marry her daughter to go back to serve the sick, that's very boring." Since you want to go back so much, and even your mother's health is being used as an excuse by you, it will be too unkind for me not to agree to you again! So don't worry, I won't stop you. ”

When Liang Shilan heard this, a trace of shame flashed in her eyes, and there was still a faint hint of guilt and guilt, she held back her anger and said: "Mrs. Tai, my mother is really sick, not a concubine. ”

In fact, her mother is indeed sick, and when she is old, how can she not have a little problem! However, it would be an exaggeration to say that he is seriously ill. If Liang Shilan goes back to take a look, it's not impossible to stay for a day or two, but as soon as she opens her mouth, it will be a month or two, and it is obvious that she wants to go away forever, does Qin Shu still want to give her a good face?

Qin Shu said impatiently: "Don't be arguing here, I'll know this kind of thing as soon as I check it." Otherwise, I will send Lang Zhong to Liang Mansion for a trip, and it won't take much effort anyway. ”

When Liang Shilan heard this, she immediately became dumbfounded. She was really afraid that Mrs. Tai would send someone to the Liang Mansion to check, and when the time came, she would really become a big joke.

She dared to say that before, also because she knew that it was impossible for Madame Tai to send someone to find out, but if it angered her, she might not do so.

In this Ying Tianfu, no one can stop what the Qin family wants to do.

Qin Shu saw that Liang Shilan was honest, and she no longer had a painful expression of pride, integrity, and backbone on her face, and her heart was also a lot more relaxed. Otherwise, when she saw her face, she couldn't help but want to be sarcastic.

After a while, Xiao Ruxuan, Zhao Hanqiu, and the concubines in the East Garden all arrived, and the subordinates also gathered in the front yard. Even Zhou Zhen'er was temporarily released, standing in the middle of the concubines with a blank expression.

Qin Shu didn't speak, she got up and walked out directly, and everyone could only follow.

When they arrived at the extremely spacious front yard, the subordinates had already stood in a full courtyard, and although there were many people, they were quiet, and no one spoke. And around the courtyard, there were the sword-wielding guards of the Generalissimo's Mansion.

Qin Shu stood on the steps under the porch in front of the door, looked around, and said slowly: "I gathered everyone together this time, in fact, I have something to say. I know you've all heard a lot of rumors recently, what Marshal Song is going to attack Yingtianfu, Yingtian is going to fall, and so on, which makes everyone panic. It is true that Marshal Song wants to attack Yingtian, but we Yingtianfu will never be breached! ”

Hearing this, Liang Shilan pursed her lips secretly, looking a little disapproving.

I only heard Qin Shu continue: "I know that some people think that I am talking big and that I am appeasing you, but in fact, it is not. You are just frightened by the name of the Song family, and the Song family is not invincible. Whether it is troops, commanders, weapons, or even food and grass, we will not lose to them, and even we have hundreds of thousands of people as backing, with strong walls and fortresses, why should we lose to them? When did our Qin family lose a battle? What's more, this time, the Red Lotus Army still won more with less, defeated the enemy army, and the morale of the generals of the whole army was high, what reason do we have to lose? ”

Qin Shu's words made many people's expressions shake, and they couldn't help but want to exchange words, but fortunately, they still remembered what place this was, so they held back.

"But then again. What's the use of you being scared and panicking? Do you think it's safer outside than inside the city? If you think so, then you can get out now, and I will not stop you. Or, if any of you are like Aunt Liang, you have other backstage or think your home is safer, you can also get out, and I won't stop you from finding what you think is a way to live. ”

Qin Shu paused when she said this. Everyone's faces were a little suspicious, and they couldn't help but look at each other, however, after a while, most of the people's faces gradually calmed down, and the look of fear in their expressions slowly faded, of course, there were a few people whose expressions wavered, but they were even more worried.

And Zhao Hanqiu and the other concubines all looked at Liang Shilan, who was pale, with a somewhat meaningful expression.

Only Zhou Zhen'er had a confused look on her face, completely out of condition. She still hasn't figured out what happened.

The corners of Qin Shu's lips were slightly imperceptible, and then she continued: "However, if you have nowhere else to go but to choose to stay, then, I don't want anyone to spread that useless nonsense in private anymore, it will be of no use except to disturb people's hearts." I hope that you will completely settle down, do what you should do seriously, and do as much as possible to do the things around you, if you want to help prepare for war, so that the soldiers have no worries when fighting in front, and contribute their own strength to Yingtian, then it will be even better, welcome. ”

"However, if the person who chooses to stay dares to talk nonsense and disturb people's hearts, I will be the first to cut off his dog's head. Okay, now, you've got a choice. After Qin Shu finished speaking, she breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the chair under the corridor with a relaxed expression, "Don't worry, even if you choose to leave, I won't embarrass you." ”

Qin Shu never thought that Ying Tian would not be guaranteed, as long as they did not take the initiative to surrender, no one would be able to get in, she was 100% confident.

It's a pity that many people don't have as much confidence as she does.

The Song family? Hmph, is the name of the Song family really so scary? Before I even started fighting, I lost my fighting spirit.

Fortunately, the Qin family army and the Red Lotus army, from the commanders to the ordinary soldiers, were not intimidated by the name of the Song family's army, but they were just more vigilant. A little stressful, not a bad thing.

The only thing that upset her was that the name of the Song family was too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and in the eyes of many people, the Song family army was invincible, and they had to devote part of their energy to appease everyone.

As for those who couldn't be appeased and insisted on escaping, Qin Shu was unwilling to stay.

So it is with the people, and so it is with the people.

She believes that the vast majority of the people are still willing to stay and live with Yingtian.

If the people really wanted to escape, the city would have been in chaos a long time ago.

After a long while, no one stood up, and when Qin Shu thought that no one would leave, suddenly a man in his thirties stood up and asked cautiously, "Mrs. Tai, what you said is true?" If we choose to leave, are you really willing to send us out? ”

This man is a steward, originally a homeless person, because he can read and write, and knows how to settle accounts, he was recruited, he is alone, his wife and children are dead, and he usually works diligently, but he is a little timid, but he didn't expect that he was the first to leave.

Qin Shu's mind flashed information related to him, nodded and said, "That's right. I'll send you straight out of the city, and you can take your belongings with you, but you'd better keep your mouth shut, and if you let me know that you're talking alarmist and nonsense outside, I'll dig you out and kill you, even if you dig three feet into the ground." After that, it is not allowed to say that it is a person from the Generalissimo's Mansion, and of course, the door of Yingtianfu will not be open to you again. ”

Qin Shu said as he asked people to record his appearance and basic information.

"Yes, yes, the little one must be tight-lipped and won't say anything." The man hurriedly kowtowed like pounding garlic, and repeatedly assured that in fact, he couldn't touch anything important, and Qin Shu also knew it, otherwise, he wouldn't let him go at all.

"Anything else?" Qin Shu asked again.

As a result, a few more people stood up and trembled and said that they wanted to leave, but Qin Shu let them go without exception, and none of them stopped them.
