Under the guidance of the errand officer, Li Qiongying, who was still dressed in men's clothes, came to the back hall, and after entering the door, she saw Ruan Aoyue and Du Siniang both dressed as men sitting in the hall, and there were two prisoners kneeling on the ground. ”

Her voice was also deliberately suppressed, and Li Long and Li Hai naturally couldn't hear it. Naturally, even if Li Qiongying doesn't suppress it, they may not be able to hear it. After all, Miss is Miss, how can you people easily see it, once a year, half a time is already a lot, not to mention that Miss will talk to you after meeting.

Ruan Aoyue said with a smile: "Brother, just now two people claiming to be from Wuchang Li Mansion came to their young lady, saying that the old lady in the mansion is seriously ill and wants to ......."

Without waiting for Ruan Aoyue to finish speaking, as soon as Li Qiongying heard that the old lady was seriously ill, she immediately exclaimed, "What? My mom is sick! ”

This exclamation, obviously with the sharp voice of his daughter's family, the kneeling Li Long and the others hurriedly turned their heads to look, and when they saw Li Qiongying in men's clothes, they immediately shouted: "Miss......"

Li Qiongying didn't pay attention to the revelation of the organ, and when she saw that it was Li Long coming, she asked eagerly: "Li Huyuan, what kind of disease does my mother have?" ”

"I ......" Li Long reacted quickly, his mind turned, and he thought about his words, "I don't know what the specific illness is, it seems that the old lady thinks too much about Miss, and all her thoughts become diseases." Now I don't think about tea and dinner, and I chant the name of the young lady every day, and the master has no choice but to tell us to come out and look for it. I heard that the young lady had seen Lord Yue in the capital, so we ran to Tongren. ”

When she heard that her mother was sick because she thought about herself, Li Qiongying was even more anxious and said, "Let's go back to Wuchang now." ”

However, as soon as her words fell, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the hall, and before anyone ran in, a panicked voice had already come in, "Chief catcher, something is wrong, the traitors are coming!" ”

"What?" Upon hearing this, everyone in the hall was shocked. Guiyang was besieged, and they also knew that the rebels were rampant and occupied the vast land of Guizhou, and they had heard of it, but they really didn't expect that the rebels would suddenly hit Tongren. Shiqian and other places in front have not heard of banditry, how could the rebels fly here?

As soon as the shouting officer entered the door, Tong Zhou asked loudly, "What traitor called?" ”

"I don't know very well, it's the news that just came, saying that the rebels are attacking and harassing, and it is less than thirty miles away from the city."

"How's that okay?" Tong Xuan stomped his feet anxiously and asked, "Do you know how many traitors there are?" ”

"I don't know, but I've heard that villagers from towns and villages outside the city have fled to the city for refuge, and it is rumored that several villages have been slaughtered." The officer said in alarm.

Tong Xuan is even more dumbfounded now, there are 3,000 people in the garrison yamen in the city, and 2,000 people are escorted to take away grain and grass, and now there are no more than 1,000 people left, how to resist tens of thousands of rebels.

Li Qiongying, Ruan Aoyue, and Du Shi Niang also lost their faces, and the faces of all the servants in the hall turned white with fright. Li Long, who knelt on the ground, took the opportunity to stand up and said, "Miss, now without further ado, let's go out of the city immediately." ”

"Now that your lordship is not in the city, ma'am, you should run quickly." At this time, Tong Zhou thought that it was imperative to let the female dependents escape first. Then he shouted to the officer, "Now go out and inquire." ”

"Yes." The officers said yes and swarmed out to inquire.

Tong Xuan untied the rope between Li Long and Li Hai, and said something offended, Li Long was not in the mood to be polite at this juncture, but said: "Li Hai, you hurry up to the inn, call all of us, and wait to escort the young lady out of the city." ”

Lehi was also afraid of losing something, so he hurriedly left and went to the inn to call someone.

At this time, Ruan Aoyue recovered from her panic, got up and said: "I don't know what the situation in the city is now, if we also flee in a hurry, won't Tongren City be handed over to the rebels." There is still a barrier in the city, and this time out of the city, it is not allowed to let the mermaids eat. ”

"Madame, don't worry, there are horses in the yamen, and if you escape on horseback, you don't expect the rebels to catch up." Tong Xuan said.

"If we have horses, do the people of the city also have horses? If the husband is here, will he abandon the city and flee? Ruan Aoyue stared at Tong Xuan and said.

"This ......" Tong Zhou has been following Yue Su for so long, and he already understands Yue Su's surname, so it is impossible for him to abandon the city and flee by himself regardless of the people. He bowed his head and said, "Your Excellency will stick to it, and you will never abandon the people and flee." ”

"Now there is no backbone in the city, if we flee first, the people in the city will definitely think that the general trend has gone, and they will flee in panic, and then Tongren will be broken, and the people will be ruined." Ruan Aoyue said earnestly.

"Madame said yes, but what can we do now?" Tong Xuan said helplessly.

"You are the chief catcher, most of the servants in the city are transferred by you, you now not only have to send people to inquire about the situation, but also send people to appease the people, and then go to the Tongzhi Yamen, please Tongzhi Lord preside over the overall situation, and lead the people of the city to resist the enemy together. And I took them to the gates of the city. Ruan Aoyue said firmly.

"Tong Xuan obeys." Tong Xuan agreed, went out quickly, and acted according to Ruan Aoyue's instructions.

Ruan Aoyue did not delay, went out and gathered twenty messengers, mounted their horses and prepared to inspect the gates. Du Shi Niang didn't know how to ride a horse, and she knew that she couldn't help much, so she had to return to the back house, but she was also worried. Li Qiongying originally planned to go on patrol with Ruan Aoyue, but Li Long begged hard, and kept saying that the old lady was seriously ill and could not be delayed, so she persuaded her, and the two of them went to the gate of the yamen to wait for other nursing homes.

Ruan Aoyue took the servants and came to the east gate first, where there was chaos, and many people who lived outside the city flocked into the city. It's just that I can't see the officers and soldiers defending the city. Seeing this situation, Ruan Aoyue immediately said, "Go and guard the yamen." ”

The officers and soldiers are not in the city, it must indicate that the garrison yamen is not ready for battle, and now the news has come, it stands to reason that this time should have been arranged, Ruan Aoyue has a bad premonition, it must be the Qian general who stayed behind and is ready to escape.

As she expected, when she arrived at the garrison yamen, it was quiet and could not be quieter, and she couldn't even see a figure, the door was open, and it was chaotic inside. "Do you know where Mr. Qian's home is?"

Now time is pressing, if the rebels are still thirty miles away from the capital city, it is two hours of effort.

"Madam, I know, in Shimen Hutong." One of the officers replied immediately.

"Let's go to Shimen Hutong now."

Let the messenger lead the way, and hurried to Shimen Hutong, there was a big mansion in front of him, and the messenger stretched out his hand and pointed, "That's the mansion." ”

Ruan Aoyue took a look and saw that many officers and soldiers were carrying luggage and packages from inside the mansion. There were more than a dozen large cars and small cars in the aisle, obviously trying to run away. Ruan Aoyue urged her to step forward, came to the gate of the mansion, and shouted loudly: "Where are you Qianzong? ”

The soldier who carried the salute saw a young man riding on a horse, followed by twenty errand soldiers, estimated to be from the yamen, and said: "My master is arranging the transportation in the courtyard, this little brother, which yamen are you?" ”

"I'm from the prefect's yamen, ask your family to come out, I have something to say!" Ruan Aoyue shouted loudly.

The soldier hesitated, put his luggage in the car first, and then said, "You wait here, I'll go in and pass it on to you." With that, he walked into the courtyard.

There is an endless stream of soldiers and servants who move back and forth, and there are not too many belongings, and now they are all food and clothing utensils, and it seems that there is not so much oil and water for a thousand people. However, compared to Yue Su, he is still very rich.

After a while, a thin middle-aged man ran out with a sweaty face, and shouted before going out, "Hurry up, everyone, you won't be able to leave any more late." ”

After that, he stepped out of the door. Glancing at Ruan Aoyue, who was riding on a horse, he asked, "Are you from the prefect's yamen?" What's the matter with me? ”

"You are the one who stayed at the Qianzong, forgive me for asking too much, adults pack up, where do you want to go?" Ruan Aoyue said unceremoniously.

"Where else can I go, the rebels will call immediately, of course they are fleeing for their lives. Say something quickly, don't delay my efforts here, I'm busy inside! "Mr. Qian's name is Feng Debao, he was born in a military family, and he has been in the army for 20 years before he became a Mr. Qian. He is not very courageous, he has rushed behind in the past, he is thin and small, but he is very good at saving his life, his father was the general manager, and the family also has two money, so he rose to the total of 1,000 by buying heads. Now, as soon as he heard that the rebels were coming, he was almost frightened, and ran home directly from the garrison yamen to pack his luggage and prepare to run away.

"Since your lord knows that the rebels are coming, why don't you organize the soldiers and horses in the city to defend them, but instead try to escape, you were ordered to stay, is this such a law-abiding?" Ruan Aoyue asked loudly.

"The rebel army is said to have 10,000 people, and there are only a few birdmen in our city, which is not enough for people to charge in one round. Rather than sending the brothers to their deaths, it is better for them to flee for their lives. When Feng Debao said this, he suddenly looked Ruan Aoyue up and down a few times, and then said in a disdainful tone: "Boy, you count that green onion, and you dare to take care of Lao Tzu's affairs." Fall in love with wherever you go, don't suffer from Lao Tzu's business. ”

"Tell you that I count the green onion, I am the wife of Yue Su, the prefect of Tongren-Ruan Aoyue. Now I command you to take your men and horses and garrison the city at once!" Ruan Aoyue said, took off her hat, and her flowing hair fell down.

"The prefect's wife?" Feng Debao shivered at first, and then a sneer appeared on his face, and said: "The prefect's wife is the oldest, and now that Lord Yue is trapped in Guiyang, I don't know if I can come back alive, you still dare to come to me to play the prestige of the prefect's wife." Acquaintances hurry back to pack up and run for their lives. If you are caught by the traitors, you are so small, you must not be caught back as a little wife. With that, he turned around and was about to enter the door.

"Presumptuous!" Hearing this last sentence, Ruan Aoyue's fire got up, raised her horsewhip, and shouted: "You should take people to defend the city now, otherwise don't blame me for being unkind to you." ”

"Just you? You still want to do me! Feng Debao didn't even look back, looked up to the sky and laughed, and said: "You don't pee and take pictures, are you qualified enough!" "Most of the people in the military are rough, and this guy is no exception, even if Ruan Aoyue is a woman, she doesn't speak in the slightest.

Ruan Aoyue was even more furious, and the horsewhip in her hand was about to be whipped towards Feng Debao's back, but at this moment, she heard someone shouting at the intersection, "Then you see if this mansion is qualified enough!" ”
