Duchess Lu Guo naturally heard the earth-shattering shouting and killing, and from the direction of the sound, she could discern the location of the gate, knowing that the sound was someone attacking her own door, she sighed and put down her chopsticks, staring at her dishes and not knowing what she was thinking.

Mrs. Shizi's face was just a little better because of eating, and after hearing this shout of killing, she instantly turned pale again. Her body trembled, and if she hadn't leaned half of her body on the table, she would have collapsed.

"Grandmother, shall I go ahead and take a look?" Huiya saw her grandmother's mother-in-law and her mother-in-law like this, listening to the shouts and killings outside, and knew that today must be a sleepless night for the Lu Guogong Mansion. Rather than sit in this inner chamber and be afraid, it is better to go ahead and inquire so that you can get a better understanding of the situation.

"No, you're just in this courtyard." Duchess Lu raised her eyes and looked at Hui Ya in surprise, seeing that although she had a panicked look on her face, she was not intimidated, and she had a little comfort in her heart, but she refused Hui Ya's request to go out and have a look.

After a while, there was the sound of footsteps outside, the footsteps were hurried but not messy, and in a blink of an eye, they were outside the main room. Hui Ya was frowning and looking out, and Duchess Lu Guo's personal grandmother led a guard to walk in from outside.

"How's it going out there?" Duchess Lu raised her eyes to look at the guard in light armor and asked with a stern expression.

"Old lady, it is the soldiers of the third prince, about 500 people, and they are attacking the main gate." The guard spoke simply, but the situation was clear at once.

"How many guards are there at our main entrance?" When Duchess Lu Guo heard that there were about 500 people attacking the main gate, her face was solemn. As far as Duchess Lu Guo knows. The total number of guards in this mansion is only five hundred, and it is also distributed at the front door and back door, as well as the courtyard walls on both sides.

"Three hundred." The guard said succinctly, and saw that the Duchess of Lu Guo waved her hand. Then he bowed silently and went out.

Huiya heard the answer. There was a vague outline in my heart, the number of people attacking the front door exceeded the number of guards, but the difference in numbers was not much. For the palace gate that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, it should be able to be defended. But it shouldn't be inevitable, Huiya thought about it and decided to put it on, so as not to be in a hurry when she really faced the enemy later.

Huiya took a deep breath. My heart settled down a little, pursed my lips and walked to the Duchess of Lu Guo. said something to Duchess Lu Guo, and when she nodded, he walked to the blue yarn cabinet next to him to change clothes.

Hui Ya just sent Green Willow to fetch her light armor and bow and arrows, originally just in case. But seeing that someone was already attacking the Lu Guogong Mansion, it was not appropriate to wear a homely Luo skirt, so he simply changed into neat clothes. Put on leather armor and carry a bow and arrow, even when there is danger. It is also possible to resist one or two.

When Huiya was changing clothes in the blue yarn closet, Duchess Lu Guo also stood up and took out two sets of clothes from the bedside, the clothes were not very good, but they were neatly cut and suitable for walking, she kept one set of this dress for herself, and handed the other set to Mrs. Shizi, obviously to facilitate the activity, to change clothes.

At this time, the gate of the Lu State Mansion was brightly lit, and a team of five or six hundred people was trying to attack the gate of the Lu State Mansion. The sound of stout wooden stakes hitting the gates, and the sound of archery shouting and killing were endless.

Since it has been decided to force the palace, it is natural to seize more bargaining chips, in the eyes of the Three Princes, at this important moment of seizing the heir, the core members of the princeling party of the Lu Guogong Mansion have become one of the important bargaining chips.

As long as the female dependents of the Lu State Mansion can be captured or killed, it will definitely be able to deal a great blow to the arrogance of the Lu State Mansion, so the soldiers responsible for attacking the Lu State Mansion are the most elite part of the army in addition to the palace.

The heavy wooden stake was carried by a dozen or so sturdy soldiers, and smashed on the gate of the Luguo Mansion, and the heavy door panel door nail was hit by the thick wooden stake, but it could not shake the gate of the Luguo Mansion at all. When the soldier was changed three or four times and couldn't knock the gate open, the soldier outside decisively changed his strategy and wanted to climb the wall and enter the palace.

The ladder used to climb the wall was erected one by one outside the gate of the Lu Guogong Mansion, and in front of the gate of the mansion that needed to bow his head and silence on weekdays, the vermilion courtyard wall seemed to be hung with countless locusts, squirming upwards and clinging, hating to open the courtyard wall and eat the flesh and blood of the people inside.

In the darkness of the night, the moon and stars were dim, and the capital was full of shouts of slaughter, and raging fires were already burning in many places. Seeing that five or six hundred soldiers could not take down the Lu State Mansion, I don't know from nowhere, a large number of soldiers poured out and joined the camp to capture the Lu State Mansion.

"Old lady, the gate will not be guarded."

"Old lady, all the soldiers have retreated to the second gate, and now they are stalemate with the enemy."

"Old lady......"

One by one, the Duchess of Lu Guo, who was still calm and calm, also showed a look of urgency on her face, the gate was breached, if the second gate could not be defended, if the main courtyard was surrounded by people at that time, it would definitely be broken in less than half an hour.

Huiya looked at the light of the fire in the thick night outside, and Huiya knew that it was still a long, long time before dawn, and dawn did not mean the end of the disaster, perhaps it was just a prelude to a more violent attack.

"Grandmother, you and your mother should both hide in the secret passages, and I'll go out and have a look, and it's a while longer." Hui Ya's hair was combed into a simple braid, and she said to the Duchess of Lu Guo and the Lady of the Prince with a bow and arrow in her hand.

"Don't go out, kid, let's go into the secret passage together." Duchess Lu Guo looked at Hui Ya's appearance and knew what she wanted to do, but she felt as if her throat was blocked by something, and she grabbed Hui Ya's hand and didn't let her go.

"Grandmother, even if we enter the secret passage, it will take time to escape, in case they attack it, this secret passage may not be found in a while, and it will not be captured by life by then! I'm going out now, so that they can resist a little longer, and maybe my grandfather and grandfather will have the strength to come back. Hui Ya said to the Duchess of Lu Guo with a smile on her face.

Duchess Lu Guo's lips squirmed twice, as if she wanted to say something, but she knew that it was useless to say anything in this situation, she nodded heavily, and pulled Mrs. Shizi into the secret passage.

Hui Ya was dressed in a bright red suit, covered with light leather soft armor, holding a hard bow in her hand, and led a group of Yahuan women who were not afraid of death to the second gate with high spirits, at this time the second gate was no longer the prosperous and peaceful appearance of the past, the guards of the Lu State Mansion were stabbing the soldiers who wanted to climb over the wall with spiked spears, blood and wounded soldiers were everywhere, and the sound of killing was shocking.

"The rich and noble family will heat up the prepared oil and bring it over, and the others will help the wounded soldiers bandage it." Huiya gave an order, and the maids and daughters-in-law immediately moved.

Huiya, who was standing not far behind the second gate, took out a feathered arrow from her quiver and shot it at an enemy soldier who had already climbed over the wall in the distance.

This is my homeland, and I will never allow you to destroy it! (To be continued)
