The Gunjo Mansion. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The night was deep, and Lao Yanfei was still dragging his slightly tired body back and forth in the warehouse, which was full of black and gold chests, almost impossible to settle, while Lao Yanfei's eyes were fixed on the precious treasures displayed on the wooden shelves embedded in the walls.

The smooth carved Buddha statue with glittering golden light, the crystal clear jade Ruyi, and the dazzling night pearl...... There are all kinds of antique shops here, and they are all precious and famous products that will not be born, and Lao Yanfei's eyes are shining when he sees it.

Lao Yanfei's housekeeper and several personal servants were taking these precious and famous items from the wooden shelves and putting them into boxes, and Lao Yanfei shouted from time to time: "Be careful, don't break it, it's worthless to rot a corner." ”

After the housekeeper put a box of pearls into a large box, he came to Lao Yanfei and said respectfully: "Master, I'm afraid that six boxes can't hold these treasures." ”

"Hey," Lao Yanfei sighed, "If I had planned earlier, I wouldn't have been so anxious." ”

"The situation changed too quickly, no one expected that Lao Sima would be so indifferent, and he would be defeated by the White Turban Army in a few clicks." The housekeeper said comfortingly.

"That guy Lao Xinde, with huge ambitions, no one in his eyes, sooner or later he will die and have no place to be buried, if it weren't for the eldest prince who was jealous of his military power, how could he compete with him for power, and both sides were defeated, and now he has no military power and he doesn't stop, I really don't know whether to live or die, if Donghai County is united, it will not be defeated so quickly, and it will not be necessary to transfer the family property to Wolf Mountain County." Lao Yanfei scolded.

"Master, I'm afraid it can't be loaded anymore, so many boxes are easy to attract attention, how can you get out of the city when the time comes, the eldest prince has given an order that no one can open the city gate, without his instructions." The butler reminded him that he was afraid that the master would forget the rules.

"What are you afraid of, it's just more gold and silver, sir, I've been a county for so many years, can't I still handle the sergeant guarding the door." Lao Yanfei reprimanded, as the deputy of the Taishou of Donghai County, couldn't he even handle this little thing, wouldn't he laugh off his big teeth.

Lao Yanfei snorted again, as if to affirm his ability in Donghai County, his elite eyes roamed back and forth on the box, and the idea in his heart quickly walked through his mind, but the battalion leader of the Four Gates Defense Battalion was inseparable from him, and this thing was still easy to do.

When he raised his head and threw off his sleeves, he had an idea, send away everything that the family could send away, get a few more carriages, and then hide the boxes in the carriage, it would be much more secretive, as long as it reached the boundary of Wolf Mountain County, it should be safe.

Lao Yanfei then instructed the housekeeper to hurry up and get a few carriages overnight at any cost, and he couldn't delay any longer, he must send his family and money away in the morning, it was already very dangerous to stay in this Donghai City, once the White Turban Army broke the city, the White Turban Army would definitely take them.

Fortunately, the White Turban Army has not yet besieged the city, the north gate is still safe, and the east gate is only stationed with a team of sergeants, which is not enough to completely block it.

The main Bo Labor Mansion.

The lights in the hall are still on, and it is Lao Ye who sits on the main seat of the hall, and a middle-aged man sits on the left, although his face is dark, but his body is heroic and upright, it is Lao Xinde, who was deposed from the position of county Sima.

At this moment, the two fell into silence, and the discussion seemed to be going on to the point where it was difficult to adjudicate, I don't know how to speak, Lao Ye is the fourth-ranked official in Donghai County, responsible for the money and accounts of the entire Donghai County, and has a close friendship with Lao Xinde on weekdays, and secretly supports the second son Lao Feng to be the future lord of Donghai County.

Who knew that Lao Zhang was so bold and reckless, with the help of the hands of the White Turban Army, Lao Xinde's troops were cut off, and the second son no longer had the capital to compete with Lao Zhang for the position of Taishou, originally according to the development of the situation, he had no reason to be with Lao Xinde's first rat at both ends, and it was a good way to support Lao Zhang.

However, the outlier of the White Turban Army is really incredible, and he usually knows nothing about military aircraft as a financial officer, so he has to use this former county Sima to analyze the situation in order to do the best prevention and preparation.

"Brother Xinde, the White Turban Army is really so powerful, and the fall of Donghai County is already a foregone conclusion." Lao Ye still couldn't help but confirm.

Lao Xinde laughed and said: "Brother Lao Ye, he Lao Zhang is bold, he only thinks about how to sit firmly in his future position as the Taishou, with the help of the hands of the White Turban Army, my strength is completely removed, originally the strength of Donghai County is not very strong, but the strength of 15,000 troops, how much is left now, the regular garrison is less than 5,000, what to fight with the White Turban Army." ”

Lao Ye asked weakly: "Isn't it for the rescue of five thousand soldiers and horses from Wolf Mountain County, I heard that their combat effectiveness is very good." ”

Lao Xinde snorted and laughed: "The wolf ambition of Wolf Mountain County, will he die hard to contribute, this is a matter of the life of the knife licking blood, the day before yesterday, the White Turban Army attacked the city, their Wolf Mountain County is only an auxiliary defender of the city, and the dead and wounded are all the soldiers of our Donghai County, and a few more times of such a siege, the confidence of the soldiers of Donghai County will be lost, and this city will be broken." ”

Lao Ye retorted: "The walls of Donghai City are thick, and I'm afraid it won't be so easy to break. ”

Lao Xinde put away his contemptuous heart and said: "The city is high and the walls are thick, but it can't stop the city from being fine inside and out. ”

Lao Ye was shocked, and then he became suspicious: "Can a few fine works still make any big waves, although I don't know how to lead troops to fight, but there is martial law in this city, and Du Wei Khan has been investigating the things of fine work, even if they have the heart, they are powerless." ”

Lao Xinde sighed and said: "Brother Lao, it's not that my brother didn't remind you, it's better to plan early." ”

Lao Ye said bitterly: "The lord treats me well, and if I flee from Donghai City at this moment, won't I become an ungrateful person." ”

Lao Xinde shouted: "But now it's not Lao Wantai who is in charge, but he Lao Zhang, you have to think clearly, follow Lao Zhang to defend Donghai City, there is only one end, the White Turban Army is bound to win Donghai City, at all costs, and, when Lao Zhang takes the position, do you still think that he will use your gang." ”

Lao Ye said sadly: "I can only follow him if I don't need it, I can't go, send my family away." ”

"Hey." Lao Xin sighed and walked away.

In the evening, Lao Xinde went to Lao Yanfei's mansion, and said that Donghai County would undoubtedly be defeated, and encouraged him to flee for his life, but Lao Yanfei did not agree, but arranged for his family to go out of the city for refuge.

Lao Xinde quietly walked out of the main Bo mansion, looked around at the situation in the dark, quietly listened to the movements around him, found that there was no abnormal movement, walked quickly into the alley in the dark, entered the alley in the dark, Lao Xinde ran, he was familiar with the alley here, so he could run even in the dark.

After a while, Lao Xinde walked into the alley, quickly followed by two night walkers, and saw that Lao Xinde was running in a hurry, and spared no effort to follow.
