0269 Xijing's Night Terror
"King, it's not good, it's not good......"
In the middle of the night, Wu Youyi slept groggyly, and he didn't hear the shouts of the house slaves outside the house at all, and he didn't wake up until the house slaves rushed to the outside of the inner room screen and shouted even louder, coupled with the push and shove of the sleeping slaves on the couch.
After waking up, his spirit was still dazed, but his heart was already furious, and he came out of the tent naked and roared: "Get out!" What a big dog guts, dare to enter the house and mourn! ”
"Great, great king forgive!"
When the house slave heard this, he knelt down and begged for mercy, and said quickly: "Nanfang has changed, and the fire is soaring to the sky......
Wu Youyi was still waiting to step forward and kick the house slave, and after hearing the words, he suddenly felt a thrill, and he was much more sober: "Nanfang is on fire? Which square? Isn't it a Tongjifang? ”
"Yes, it's Tongjifang, and, it's as hot as Quchifang!"
The house slave replied in a trembling voice, and then was kicked away by Wu Youyi, and then he heard the scolding: "Stupid slave, stupid slave, since there is a fire, why don't you send someone to watch and extinguish the fire, what's the use of coming to my room to mourn!" ”
Wu Youyi scolded endlessly, grabbed the robe handed by the maid and put it on his body, and rushed out of the door, looking south into the night, only to see that half of the night sky was brightly reflected by the firelight, and his face couldn't help but be even more ugly.
"Already, I have sent out the family disciples, but I am afraid that the power is not enough, and the dispatch of the guards and armor disciples requires the king's ......"
The house slave hurriedly came out with him, and said again.
"Let the disciples gather in the outer court first!"
Wu Youyi was also a little flustered at this time, and after giving an order, he quickly returned to the room, shouting and scolding for people to send clothes and armor, and hurriedly went to his body.
After a while, he walked out of the door wearing a heavy armor, but he didn't take a few steps and beckoned his family to come forward to help. After all, he is not young, and he is not Kong Wu or the like, so happy that he was suddenly awakened in the middle of the night, and a whole set of heavy armor was pressed on his body, so his legs and feet were naturally sore, and it was difficult to move.
The house slaves half-supported and half-framed Wu Youyi came to the vestibule, where more than 200 armor people had gathered, each armed with a sword and equipped with a bow and crossbow.
The captain of the team was much calmer than the Wu family slaves, and when he saw Wu Youyi appearing, he stepped forward and reported: "King Qiqi, there is a fire in the Nantong Jifang mansion, and the street shop Wuhou is gathering people to put out the fire, and there are many wells and canals in the workshop, so there is no major trouble." Quchifang is suspected of being invaded by thieves, beating drums to warn and summoning the disciples into the cherry orchard to defend the king of Hedong, but there has been no detailed report so far......"
The commander's report is much more organized, although there are two fangs in chaos, but there are naturally people in Tongjifang to organize firefighting, and there are many troops stationed in Quchifang, where to inspect, free and military should be decided.
But Wu Youyi was not calm at this time, after all, the fire in Tongjifang was related to the safety of his own family property, and after listening to it, he sneered: "There are thieves in Quchifang again? This king of Hedong is too capable of provoking evil spirits, and he doesn't care about him, quickly prepare his horse and go to Tongjifang! ”
When the commander heard this, he opened his mouth to persuade him, but it was late at night, and it was better to be still. Although the two squares have their own traces of chaos, but there is a wall to block, it will not spread to the outside for the time being, and the workshop itself has its own arrangement, it is the most secure to watch the situation here, if the masses here in Tongshan Fang are dispatched, it will undoubtedly make the people in the square frightened, and more variable.
But before he could say anything, Wu Youyi had already drunk the order of the family to run out of the door with him, and the commander could only sigh when he saw this, waved his hand and led the soldiers to follow.
Wu Youyi had just walked out of the gate of the garden here, and there were already idle streams running here on the street, asking nervously.
"Get the hell out of here!"
With the support of the family, Wu Youyi turned over his horse with difficulty, and whipped away those who came forward to entangle and inquire with an anxious face, and shouted: "Where they live in peace, who dares to take the opportunity to mess up, there will be no mercy!" ”
As he spoke, he had already turned his horse and marched towards the south side of Fangmen, and on the way, he kept ordering the soldiers scattered on the left to gather along the way.
In the process of moving forward, the size of the team continued to expand, and Tongshanfang Xingyuan gradually became chaotic due to the transfer of these soldiers. Recently, the rally teased, the people staying in Tongshanfang were already counting, and this noise became up, and the streets were full of surging heads, one by one looking at each other with panicked looks, and all parties inquired.
Seeing this scene, the commander of the team hurriedly rushed forward to grab Wu Youyi's mount, and said loudly: "It's really not a big deal to make a small fuss in the two squares. The body of the king's daughter, Xijing's safety is in danger, it is really not suitable to wander around at night, otherwise there will be changes in all directions, and I don't know where to run? ”
"Fire and water are ruthless, what kind of fuss? If you stop the trouble again, let the fire spread, and take your dog's head! Pull him away for me! ”
Wu Youyi was worried about his family wealth, and when he saw this, he was even more furious, whipped the commander, and ordered him to continue his journey.
But when he walked to the Nanfang Gate, he saw that the surrounding area of the Fang Gate had already gathered chaotic people, and the road could not be seen at all, and all kinds of chaotic voices made the environment extremely noisy.
Seeing this scene, Wu Youyi couldn't help but be a little flustered, Le Ma paused, and ordered the soldiers to step forward to try to drive away these wandering people. However, at this time, the crowd was frightened, and although the people were expelled and frightened, they did not disperse, but still gathered around the gate and planned to take the opportunity to escape.
"Quickly summon the outside of the workshop to enter the workshop and suppress these rat-guts rioters!"
In a hurry, there were only a few hundred soldiers gathered around him, far less than the crowd of people wandering on the street, Wu Youyi felt a little weak, and he was no longer in a hurry to get out of the workshop for a while, turned his horse and leaned against the trees on the side of the street, and ordered quickly.
However, in this chaotic environment, it is difficult to ensure that even if an order is given, it is difficult to ensure that it is conveyed quickly. Wu Youyi looked at the fire in the southwest, naturally full of anxiety, and secretly regretted that he should not have arranged too many soldiers in Quchifang, so that he was intimidated by the chaotic people at this moment and did not dare to come out lightly.
In the middle of the anxiety, the door of the south square suddenly opened, and the people were waiting to pour out of the fang, but they found that there was a crowd array outside the fang, and there were many torches, shining so that the cold light of the armor knife was thick.
"There is no great chaos in the city, but the fire in Linfang is scattered, and the king of Hedong leads the people into the fang to help, and the small people return to the fang, otherwise they will commit a crime at night!"
Yang Siqiao was ordered by the king, holding a huge shield almost the size of a door panel in both hands, and shouted in the street, and behind him were many Xijing soldiers with knives in their hands.
As for the rear, Li Tong was riding on a horse in soft armor, and Tang Lingshu, who was riding beside him, deducted a face guard for the Xijing armor disciples, which looked a little nondescript, but at least it was safe.
However, at this time, the long street was empty, and even if there were people who climbed over the wall, they all fled quickly into the distance, no longer gathering at the gate of the street, and there was no danger.
The soldiers outside the fang heard the call outside the fang, and they also hurriedly lined up and shouted, and the inside and outside gradually closed, and the people gathered near the fang gate also went to all parts of the fang.
After the two converged, Wu Youyi was in no mood to make fun of the young king's nondescript dress, but frowned and asked, "Why is the king of Hedong here?" Didn't thieves break into your garden? ”
"I knew that I was left behind in the past, I was palpitating, and I knew that there was a fire in Xifang, so I naturally didn't dare to slack off. I searched the park to find out that there was a false alarm, but I also remembered that the rape in Xijing was in the dark, and the fire robbery was probably man-made. Worried about the lack of people left behind, this is the risk to help! ”
Li Tong stepped forward and lifted his mask and said, with a look of concern for Wu Youyi's safety.
"Good come, good come! The king of Hedong is really shrewd and decisive, and I really don't have anyone available here! ”
Wu Youyi's face showed a little joy after hearing this, and then he beckoned to Li Tong and said, "For the time being, the king's disciples, follow me to Tongjifang to put out the fire!" ”
"Chaos in the empty shop, there is still something to wait, how can you stay behind!"
There are not many residents in Tongjifang, so Li Tong said this, and while speaking, he looked at the disciples around Wu Youyi and said sharply: "Staying behind is in a hurry for the people, and you subordinates dare to let him take risks?" Chaos in a square is still a minor illness, if you are injured and stay, it is a national pain! ”
The soldiers around him, especially the commander who had been whipped for dissuasion before, were also busy stepping forward at this time to continue to persuade: "Please stay behind and persuade the king of Shanna Hedong, the people's safety is concentrated in the one left behind, and you really can't move and take risks!" The chaos of this night has not been verified whether it is man-made or not, but the most important thing today is to stay and stay still, and the guards on the four sides are guarding their duties, and summoning the cavalry in the city to gather close, waiting for the move! ”
Hearing what the soldier commander said, Li Tong was happy again. This is exactly what he wants, and it is indeed a plan for chaos at the moment, but he is an outsider, so it is still a bit abrupt for Wu Youyi to summon the cavalry here, but it is much more normal for his subordinates to say it.
Wu Youyi really didn't have a right idea at this time, of course, the most nervous thing in his heart was the goods he stored in Tongjifang, but after listening to the persuasion of several people one after another, he was also a little hesitant.
However, after the noise for a moment, the fire of the Southwest Tongji Fang was faintly weakened, and Wu Youyi hated and said: "Quickly summon all the horsemen in the market to stand by!" ”
As he spoke, he withdrew from the crowd around him, and whispered to the young king: "Tongjifang stored my private goods, it was just a hurry before, listening to the words of the king of Hedong, it is indeed inevitable that there is something strange in this, I am afraid that someone is secretly ......."
"It's hard to conclude at the moment, after all, raw hemp is dry and easy to get angry. At the moment, it is important to return to the workshop first, calm down the human feelings, if there is any change this night, then you really have to think about it carefully! ”
Li Tong sighed, and raised his hand to invite Wu Youyi to go forward and enter the workshop, and he rode his horse to follow.
In the panic, time always passed very slowly, and Wu Youyi did not return to the garden in the fang, just waiting for the assembly of the soldiers from the outside in front of the fang. Li Tong stood among his own guards, looking at the more and more cavalry coming to live here, and suddenly exclaimed.
"What's the matter?"
Wu Youyi was also nervous at this time, and after hearing this voice, he hurriedly stepped forward to ask.
"It suddenly occurred to me that if this time is really artificial, then the traitor may not only be intended for private storage, and the silk and hemp goods collected by Xingyuan are also dangerous!"
Wu Youyi was also shocked when he heard this, if it was just distressed that his private treasury was burned, it was a big deal to find it elsewhere to make up for it afterwards, not to mention that the Dou family had just said that they would give him a lot of silk and hemp during the day. But if the hemp goods that have been put into storage are burned, then it really can't be concealed in the past, you must know that he has already sent the relevant recital to Shendu!
What's even worse is that the young king's words were like a prophecy, and not long after he said it, another fire in the city had already risen.
"Yes, it's the official treasury of Dunhuafang!"
When Wu Youyi saw the direction of the fire, his hands and feet were already cold, and the heavy armor he was wearing all over his body trembled, and he said quickly: "Hurry, go to Dunhuafang!" All go, all go! ”
As he spoke, he himself held on to the saddle and was about to get on the horse, but he was so nervous that he stepped on the stirrup several times. Li Tong thoughtfully stepped forward to help, and sneered in his heart, hurry up, I won't kill you tonight, we won't dawn!
