At this time, the palace of Longxi County, a heavy atmosphere enveloped the entire palace.

Outside the window, the snow fluttered, and inside the room was the sound of crying.

Li Keyong's concubines Cao, Chen, Li Keyong's eldest daughter Qionghua, and of course, Li Yazi, who is just over three years old, is the historical founding emperor of the Later Tang Dynasty, Li Cunqiao.

Undoubtedly, Li Keyong is the pillar of these women.

Now that Li Keyong has been captured, his brothers and cronies are not thinking about how to rescue each other, but are plotting to bully this group of women and children.

Only Liu did not cry, although her husband was captured, and her brother-in-law, her husband's righteous son, and cronies betrayed one after another, but she is now the head of this palace.

If she gives up, what will happen to these people?

Although Li Kening, Kang Junli and others said that they would not embarrass their women and children, they still sent troops to guard outside the palace in the name of protecting their safety.

To this end, the Liu family gathered the personal soldiers of the entire palace, plus the female guards around her, to strengthen the patrol of the palace and ensure the safety of the female relatives in the palace.

"Auntie, why are you crying? Let Miao'er hit him! ”

Looking at the crying Cao, Li Cunmiao, who didn't understand what was going on, said in a milky voice, and wiped the tears on Cao's face with his little hand.

"Ao'er."

Seeing his son, Cao couldn't help it, and hurriedly hugged his son and cried.

"Auntie, how could Uncle Kenin be like this? He is the brother of his father, and his daughter goes to reason with him! ”

Li Qionghua (I really don't know what her name is) is 16 years old, and in this era, she has reached the age of marriage.

Although Li Qionghua is Li Keyong's eldest daughter, she was not born to the Liu family, nor to the Cao family, but to another concubine.

However, Li Keyong has a lot of righteous sons, and he has two sons, but his daughter is only this one, so he loves him more and develops some less good tempers. In addition, he was brought up by the Liu family since he was a child, so he is also very proficient in riding and archery.

Although his mother has passed away a long time ago, it can be seen from Li Qionghua's appearance that her mother is also a rare beauty, otherwise she would not have been favored by Li Keyong.

And before that, Li Keyong had planned to marry this eldest daughter to Meng Qian's nephew Meng Zhixiang, but he didn't expect this to happen.

"Stop!"

Liu's face became very serious, "Your uncle is no longer the uncle you knew before. Your father was captured by the imperial court, and now that the dragons in Taiyuan have no leader, he is naturally very greedy for your father's position.

Don't just because you're his niece, he won't be able to do anything to you. ”

Li Qionghua pouted and stomped her feet and stood aside to breathe, her angry appearance was very cute, but unfortunately no one appreciated it here, and she didn't have time to appreciate it.

The snow in the yard was getting heavier and heavier, and the temperature in the house was also dropping a lot.

There was a noisy sound outside the palace, and there were shouts of killing, and then the people of the palace were broken in.

Listening to the sound of horses' hooves, it was obvious that someone rode in directly, and the soldiers in the courtyard suddenly became nervous, and they were on guard, and even the female guards around the Liu family drew their swords and protected Liu and the others in the middle.

Hearing the noise outside, the people in the house thought that Li Kening was going to attack them, and couldn't help but scream.

But soon a familiar voice said, "Princess, I'm Kang Junli, I have something important to see!" ”

"Princess, it's Kangjie's envoy!"

The female guard next to her reported in command.

Kang Junli was also on Li Kening's side before, but now he suddenly broke into the palace, and it is no wonder that these personal soldiers and female guards are so close to the enemy.

"Let him in!"

In Liu's opinion, no matter how Kang Junli is, he is also the righteous son of his husband, even if the other party wants to follow Li Kening to seize Li Keyong's position, it is impossible to kill these women and children so impatiently.

With Liu's permission, the soldiers gave way to a road, and Kang Junli strode over and came to Liu's fist and saluted.

"Princess, please pack up your things immediately and take the other ladies and Qionghua, Cunmiao, and Cunmei to leave with the last general!"

In the past, Kang Junli had to call himself a child in front of Liu and others, but now he deliberately forgot about it.

"Junli, what do you want to do? Could it be that Shiro is so eager to get rid of us defenseless women and children? Liu Shi said sharply.

Seeing that the other party had misunderstood, Kang Junli hurriedly explained, "Princess, how is this possible. It's really an accident, the people of the Sage Department and the Anqing Department colluded with the defenders of the West Gate to open the city gate, and at this time the forbidden army has already entered the city, and it will be too late if you don't leave! ”

As if to confirm that what Kang Junli said was true, there was a shout of killing outside the palace.

"Enter the palace of Longxi County and take down all Li Keyong's family!"

"Kill me!"

Kang Junli's face changed suddenly, and he said anxiously, "Princess, go quickly, if you don't leave, it's too late!" ”

At this time, some of the prince's own soldiers also ran in to report, "Princess Qiqi, there is an unknown army coming towards the palace!" ”

Only then did Liu realize that Kang Junli was not lying, and his impression of Kang Junli in his heart had improved a lot, and he hurriedly instructed the Cao, Chen, and others behind him, "Sisters, go back and pack your things!" ”

The shouts of killing outside were getting closer and closer, and it seemed that they had exchanged hands with the army outside.

"Princess, don't worry about that, it's too late if you don't leave!" Kang Junli said in a hurry.

Hearing the shouting and killing outside the palace getting louder and louder, Liu nodded, and then took a group of female dependents and children, under the cover of dozens of female guards and hundreds of personal soldiers, followed Kang Junli, and hurriedly rode away from the back door of the palace.

When he came to the palace, Liu found that the street was chaotic at this time, and he didn't know which ones were his own people and which ones were enemies, and there were shouts of killing everywhere.

Taiyuan City on a snowy night fell into a shadow of swords and swords.

Kang Junli, Liu Shi and others did not dare to stay at all, and a group of nearly 1,000 people quickly headed towards the north gate, and the army there escaped from Taiyuan City from the north gate.

If it weren't for the Sage and Anqing tribes to surrender to the enemy, maybe they wouldn't be so embarrassed, even if they finally decided to abandon Taiyuan, they would have broken out in an organized way, instead of fleeing in panic like this.

The chaos lasted all night, and throughout the night, Taiyuan City was full of shouts and killings, and ordinary people hid in their homes in fear and did not dare to go out.

Early the next morning, the military flag of the Tang Dynasty was planted on Taiyuan City, and no one expected that Taiyuan City would be taken like this, and the generals of the forbidden army who wanted to perform well were also a little disappointed.

When did the Shatuo army become so reckless?

If Li Kening and the others knew, they would probably be so angry that they would immediately kill back.

If it weren't for Li Keyong's loss of the elite in Pingyao, and the rebellion of Sage and Anqing, why would they have been defeated so quickly?
