In the houses of Anle Fang, there is a gloomy cloud. Their small team of more than 40 people hid in the city for more than a month, but in the spirit of caution, there were few casualties. But the day before yesterday, there was a riot, and more than a dozen people died directly.

Liu Yu squatted in the corner with his head in his hands, his expression was in a trance, and his eyes were bloodshot. Someone stepped forward with a bowl of rice, pushed him by the shoulder, and said astringently: "San Lang, you haven't eaten water and rice for two whole days." Take a bite, don't let down the grain that your brother bought with his life! ”

"I really can't eat, I can't eat...... This grain of rice is like biting my brother's flesh and blood! ”

Liu Yu hid his face again and cried sadly, and his tone was extremely hoarse: "Back then, when the township fled from the famine, only two of my brothers lived...... My parents entrusted me with my deathbed, but I killed my brother! Why did you come to Xijing in the first place......

The boy doesn't flick when he has tears, but he hasn't reached the sad place. At that time, the family lived in the township, which can be described as a happy one, natural disasters came, the villagers fled the famine, and their parents stuffed their rations into their brothers, preferring to starve to death.

Thinking of the old things, Liu Yu was even more full of self-blame, if he hadn't been idle more than a month ago, he insisted on taking his young brother to Chang'an to see the world, and his young brother would not have died in Chang'an City.

His companions persuaded him bitterly, Liu Yu just didn't eat, and the villagers knew that he had a deep brotherhood, and they felt helpless for a while.

At this moment, the companion who was listening to the wind outside hurriedly returned, holding a bladeless arrow in his hand and said loudly: "The strong disciples of Anhuamen are gone, but a large number of horsemen rushed out of the city. They, they shot many arrows into the city, and I picked one up and came back......"

When the villagers heard this, they came up one after another, and found that the arrow was tied with a piece of cloth, and the cloth was covered with handwriting. But these people were not very literate, and soon passed the cloth edge to Liu Yu, and asked anxiously: "San Lang, what is written on this cloth?" ”

Liu Yu's family was well-off in the old years, and he also recognized some words. Although he was still sad at the moment, he didn't dare to ignore the vitality of the villagers, took the cloth and hurriedly took a look, his expression became quite complicated, and he said to the anxious eyes of the villagers: "The imperial court has arrived outside Chang'an City, and ordered the people in the city to go out of the city and return to obedience in three days, and those who stay in the city after three days will all be killed!" ”

"The army has arrived ......"

After hearing this, the villagers were also shocked for a while. Although they knew that such a day would come, when it actually came, they still had a lot of trepidation in their hearts.

"The court ordered us to leave the city, will it kill us all?"

One of them said in a pale trembling voice, which was undoubtedly the greatest fear in their hearts.

Another person jumped up as if he had been burned, and waved his hand again and again to deny: "This is absolutely not, how can it be!" There are so many people in the city, tens of thousands, how can they all be killed? Isn't the marshal of the army afraid of being damned? Even if we want to kill, we should kill those treacherous officials who deceived us to Xijing, and we should kill those thugs who have harmed people's lives! We didn't kill us, the court won't kill you, San Lang, don't you say? ”

Although the man tried his best to deny his companion's speculation, his words were also full of uncertainty, and he just looked at Liu Yu with his eyes, hoping that he would also agree with his opinion.

Liu Yu sighed after hearing this, read the cloth again with the strip of cloth in his hand, savored it carefully, and then said: "The imperial court should not be a killer, and the book order also said that the general knows that our villagers are miserable, so he built a camp outside the city to settle us, and there is grain and rice for us to live." This is a blatant promise, and it should not be reversed. ”

Hearing Liu Yu's analysis, most people were a little relieved, but some people were still pessimistic: "Even if it is a blatant order, it may not necessarily mean that it will not be back!" Have you forgotten how the riots in Xijing started? Now that we have been deceived out of the city and locked up in the barracks and surrounded by a large army, what will those officers and soldiers do when the time comes, and how can we deal with it? ”

Hearing this, everyone fell into silence again, full of confusion about life and death.

At this time, in Chang'an City, such a picture was also staged everywhere, and he was suspicious of the military order to shoot into the city by the rebel army.

Xijing has been the emperor's residence for a long time, and the king's canonical decree is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it is almost impossible for such a large-scale turmoil to break out. There were many reasons for the unrest this time, and with the outbreak of unrest, the people's trust in the imperial decrees also collapsed rapidly, and it was difficult to re-establish it.

Compared with the small people's half-belief in the content of this book, the nobles in Xijing have a more unified attitude after seeing the content of the book, that is, they are very dissatisfied.

"King Yong's shaft, sincerity is more reputation than truth, and it is useless! These thieves in Chang'an City, they are all jackals who have tasted blood, they are rampant and lawless, and they are no longer simple, how can they be regarded as good people! King Yong believes in the heresy of not blaming the public, and actually thinks that only a small amount of short-term profits can make them obey and return to governance, which is really ridiculous! ”

Someone couldn't help but scold: "This kid doesn't know how to fight, it's rare that all the families in our city have gathered their strength and killed some bandits, so that these thieves are discouraged." It is time to take advantage of this opportunity to enter the city with a large army and kill those thieves, so that they will know their fear and fear, and they will no longer dare to have the idea of rebellion! ”

Someone else sighed: "Although the Tang family started a business with might, but it has been passed down to the present, and the ancestral style has long been gone, otherwise how could the demon queen usurp the artifact?" King Yong is just a lucky disciple raised in Awu's harem, how can there be a distinction between severity and right and wrong! The imperial court sent it to settle the chaos, it can be seen that although the martial arts are removed, they still have a strong demonic atmosphere, and they actually entrust the safety of the ancestral industry of the imperial court to such a clumsy family! ”

"The most hateful thing is that this erection has not achieved an inch, and greed has been born! Tens of thousands of soldiers did not dare to raise their swords against the chaotic people, but coveted the hard work of all families for generations! He has the truth of greed and violence, but he wants to manage the bloodless benevolence and righteousness of the soldiers, which is really inconsistent, cunning and cunning, worthy of the blood of Awu! ”

Everyone vented their dissatisfaction and accused King Yong of being pedantic and out of place. But after a while, someone spoke: "King Yong's army is already on the Ba, so do you want to go out of the city to worship according to the previous plan?" ”

After hearing this, the atmosphere in the hall fell silent for a while, and after a long while, someone said: "I still have to go, after all, I am not at the moment." No matter how bad King Yong is, he will eventually lead the emperor's order and lead the army to this point. The Xijing riots have shocked the government and the opposition, and now the villagers should be respectful and not let this son have an excuse to take the opportunity to provoke and exert his prestige. ”

"Also, the looting of the official treasury should also be taken advantage of to clean up. The rebellious people who were slashed and captured on Suzaku Street were also sent to the army for interrogation by King Yong. ”

Another old man spoke, stood up at the same time, looked at the people present and said in a deep voice: "This matter will be more serious or lighter, and you should have your own measurements. There is no need to say more, but if any of them leak secrets, I will kill them with all the others! ”

After hearing this, everyone present got up one after another and said that they would never leak secrets. They did keep this matter a secret, and even the people of their respective clans didn't know much about it.

Originally, they felt that King Yong was young and vigorous, eager to make meritorious contributions, and once the army entered Chang'an City, they must kill it first. In this way, even if there are still any traces left, and then through some messing, the physical evidence will be gone, and the person involved can be classified as dead without evidence.

But now, King Yong is mainly giving relief, which will undoubtedly keep many traces of personnel during the Xijing Rebellion, increasing the possibility of their exposure.

"Actually, don't worry, there is no clue about the turmoil in the city so far. King Yong's new arrival, if he wants to settle the chaos and return to order as soon as possible, it is indispensable to rely on the power of our villagers, and everything is in my hands, how much can King Yongwang perceive? What's more, Dou Xuanfu still doesn't know whether he is alive or dead. He is the official envoy of the imperial court, whether he is dead or alive, he has a great stake. Before this matter is conclusive, King Yong is afraid that he has no intention of resting. ”

Hearing people talk about Dou Huairang, some people couldn't help but be curious: "Yes, who was this eighth prince of the Dou family kidnapped?" Since the turmoil, various families in the city have also inquired carefully, but Dou Bagong seems to have disappeared, and there is no whereabouts. ”

"Where Dou Huai is, it doesn't depend on who does it, what matters is who has the ability to harm him. These chaotic people in the city are just a mess of flax, not a climate, but they are not without exceptions, that is, the old clothes society entrenched in the southwest fangju. There are many followers in this township, preaching false righteousness and inciting villagers to disobey the order of the township, which is really a constant nuisance, and all families are trapped. ”

Someone nodded and said, "The Ancient Clothing Society is indeed a major suspect, maybe they did it." Otherwise, how could thousands of soldiers suddenly rush out and disappear without a trace? There must be a strong crowd covering them! ”

"Whether it's the township community or not, if Dou Huai lets him live, then do something else. If it doesn't come out for a long time, it can only be done by this old clothing club! ”

An old man said categorically, making it clear that he wanted to detain this matter on the head of the old clothes society, and he continued: "This is what we discussed today, and I am ready to go out of the city tomorrow morning to worship King Yong. There is another point to remember, restrain the children of each family, they don't know the depth of world affairs, and they are easy to be bewitched by a prestigious young noble like King Yong, don't let them have too deep contact with King Yong! ”

When everyone heard this, they nodded yes. King Yong's big battle in Xijing last year also made them remember it vividly, and there are many people in their respective clans who admire King Yong.

They don't reject their own children from following King Youyong, but now is not a good time. It's better to deal with the current situation in Chang'an City first, and wait until order is restored, and then carefully consider how to get along with King Yong.

Of course, they may not be sure what attitude to take to face King Yong, but King Yong's idea is very correct.

After the garrison ordered to throw a book order into the city, Li Tong summoned the generals and ordered them to lead the troops around the city to patrol the city, and ordered those who left the city without permission before the three-day period to retreat with drums and trumpets, and those who did not retreat were immediately shot!

"All those who go out of the city, all of them? However, knowing that His Royal Highness is so powerful, the lords in the city may want to go out of the city to greet them, should they open their eyes? ”

When a general heard this, he asked for instructions.

"No, now the city is in a mess, whether it is an official or a thief, whether it is right or evil, and it is difficult to distinguish the name. Whoever obeys my command is obedient, and whoever disobeys my command is rebellious! ”

Li Tong waved his hand and said directly.
