Before dawn, the galloping horses with bright yellow saddles galloped all the way, and "da-da-da" entered the inner imperial city.

"The barbarian soldiers have invaded Dongshaomen, Weichen risked his life to knock, and Lafayette moved the phoenix to the palace."

The woman sitting on the high seat, sitting upright, without the old age of her peers, paying attention to maintenance for many years, she was extremely poor and luxurious, for the first time in her life, she was dressed plainly, without powder, and did not wear armor covers.

"What about the emperor?"

"Back to Lafayette, the emperor is waiting outside the palace."

"Let's go!"

She sat for a while, then patted her legs and slowly got up, and the eunuch who had served for many years on the side tacitly came to support her early.

She frowned and shook off her hand, insisting that she alone hold on to the huge vermilion doorpost, cross the high threshold, and walk out of the hall.

The drizzle was slight, and the little emperor's dragon robe and hair were wet for a long time, and his face was also covered by the rain, where was the majesty of the Son of Heaven as the Ninth Five-Year Emperor.

"Dear Daddy!"

Seeing her come out, the little emperor hurriedly came forward to salute her.

The new gramophone in the hall, the film is still squeaking, and the tunes and lyrics are sung in the ears.

"The Tao only enters the emperor's house involuntarily, the prosperity is absurd, dozens of years of time are in vain, and it is difficult to realize the dream without changing the ......"

The dry well under the towering ancient trees outside the hall, she drowned Concubine Li of Emperor Xuan, Xu is fate, the reincarnation of heaven, she is destined to die in it.

"Dear Daddy!"

"Galeries Lafayette!"

The little emperor didn't catch half of his sleeve in an arrow step, and a group of palace maids and eunuchs exclaimed again and again.

"Stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, Lafayette, why do you want to perish together with this gorgeous golden wire cage that has a false appearance? Let's avoid trouble for the time being, and slowly figure it out. ”

When the queen mother opened her eyes, she was in the arms of a strange "man", wearing a Western men's suit and a top hat, she should also be a little student with red lips and white teeth, and the fly in the ointment was that she wore a mask that covered half of her face, and she couldn't see the whole face.

She had an inexplicable feeling in her heart, and for the first time, she felt that this Western men's clothing was not so annoying.

Sure enough, this dress is innocent, mainly depends on who wears it.

This little student let go of her, and did not salute, and followed at any time, a young boy who was not tall and dressed as an innocent and cute little scholar. The opening directly explains the intention.

"Mr. Yamashita is in poor health and can't travel long distances, so he ordered me to come."

"The teacher's letter is clear, and I know that Mr. Qiao arrived in time."

The little emperor was very excited as if he had seen a savior.

"It's not good to stay here for a long time, let's go out first."

"Good, good!"

At the critical juncture, the little emperor finally mustered up the courage, holding the queen mother's arm, surrounded by a large group of palace maids and eunuchs, walking hand in hand, out of the palace gate, boarding the spacious carriage that had been prepared, and carrying more than 1,000 people from the team, which was mighty and magnificent.

The great migration of these thousands of people was very procrastinating, and they did not carry rain gear, and they were all drenched by the cold autumn rain.

The Empress Dowager's car was at the head of the procession. The Queen Mother lifted the curtain several times, and she could see this so-called Mr. Qiao riding a horse in the rain and walking with her.

The clothes on his body were much darker, and the brim of his hat was constantly dripping with water droplets.

She hesitated to let the other man into the carriage to get out of the way.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

After the warning gunshot, "Whoosh, whoosh, Peng!" "Two bullets passed directly through the wide bright yellow curtain and instantly pierced the inner wall of one side of the carriage.

"Escort, escort!"

The old eunuch's voice was pitched hoarse.

To say that it is still this Mr. Qiao reacted quickly.

With one hand, he supported the horse's back and borrowed strength, jumped to the carriage, and "he", the little scholar, left and right, with a clear division of labor and tacit understanding.

took the queen mother and the little emperor respectively and protected them behind him.

"Little orange, dig guy!"

"Hmm!"

Glancing at each other, the two of them took out or pulled out their small revolvers from their jacket pockets and waists at the same time.

The team behind him had already been in chaos and scattered in all directions.

After the four of them got out of the carriage, they found cover all the way to dodge, and looked for opportunities to escape all the way.

This Mr. Qiao and his scholar are extremely good at marksmanship, and if they see it accurately, the distance is appropriate, and they will kill one with one shot. Moreover, the opponent's rifle is still a long rifle with one shot and one load, which is not light and not flexible enough.

Naturally, the other party suffered more casualties, with seven or eight people, while Mr. Qiao and the two were unscathed.

"Mr. Qiao's marksmanship is really exquisite!"

The little emperor saw that the foreign devils on the other side who were originally arrogant and were still rampant on the street just now were now scared by Mr. Qiao's "them", and they were scared by a few random shots, holding the gun, or the cat on the waist, or lying on their stomachs to cover themselves, and some simply did not show their heads.

It's really angry, and in addition to being enjoyable and refreshing, he also stretched out his thumb and praised it breathtakingly.

Xiao Tang, who didn't understand the world, was originally engrossed in staring at the enemy's movements in front of her, and the little emperor danced wildly, making her frown for a while, so she directly covered her mouth tightly with her other hand that was still empty. "Woo! Woo! ”

The little emperor didn't expect that a young man's hand strength could be so big.

"Shh

She turned her head to glare, and held the barrel in front of her to silence him.

The little emperor understood what he meant, and quickly nodded obediently, and Xiao Tang let go.

"It should only be a small group of people, estimated to be no more than twenty at most."

"We don't have many bullets, little orange, let's fight quickly!"

"Hmm!"

It was another tacit look at each other, and the two of them were like lightning in the smoke of gunpowder. First of all, he took out two more shots and did not show his head, picked up the dropped rifle and carried it with one hand as a big knife, picked it up and smashed the rest of the enemy's brains with the butt of the gun, and broke one in a few strokes.

The rest cowered, came out from all sides, and gradually surrounded the two, loaded and aimed, ready to shoot.

The two of them smiled slightly, and the dark dart that was taken out of their waists in their pockets was thrown out casually, with great precision, and they were roughly hit in the throat.

The only two or three fish that slipped through the net, seeing that the companions around them were like dominoes, fell down one by one, and they were so frightened that they were boiling urine, crying and calling for their mothers, and they didn't want guns, so they even ran away.

"Poor Kou Mo Chase!"

Xiao Tang held the gun and was unwilling to chase for a while, but was stopped by drinking, and finally stopped in the direction of their escape, and released a shot before stopping.

"Let's go."

The two of them picked out two spears each, carried them in their hands, and swayed to the little emperor and queen mother.

"Take a handful of them for each person, this army is in chaos, and you can still be around with this."

"The slave deserves death, so that the two masters are frightened!"

All was calm, and the immediate danger was temporarily lifted.

The old eunuch came belatedly, and fell to the ground in a pretentious manner, squeezing out a few tears.

"Father-in-law, I saw that when the bullets flew over just now, you ran quite fast!"

"Joe, Mr. Joe laughed! With Mr. Qiao's right-hand protection, wouldn't the old slave be on the side to make trouble in vain? ”

A ridicule made the old eunuch look ashamed, but he quickly reacted to the words.

"Let's go, take a rest, I see this man running and scattering, it seems that he is going to spend the night in this nearby farm tonight."

It's cold again, and the little emperor and the people in the palace are already pampered, and after a little rain, they have already begun to swing, and their lips are purple.

The Queen Mother is old, and the situation is not much better.

"Let's go, find someone to borrow for a night, warm up, and eat something hot!"

This depressed group of people knocked on the doors of several houses in a row, and finally someone was willing to take them in.

It's really down-and-out, and the phoenix is not as good as a chicken.

With the previous lessons, I didn't dare to reveal my identity, for fear of being regarded as a liar with bad intentions and turned away.

"Sister-in-law, is there anything to eat in the house? Please get us some, we'll give you silver! ”

"How can everything be taken over by Mr. Qiao, Li Dexi!"

The queen mother gave her a look, and the old eunuch immediately groped out of her inner arms, took out two gold ingots, and slapped them loudly on the low gray table.

"Take out all the best food in your house, entertain it, and reward!"

This condescending tone has the flavor of the general manager.

The peasant woman rubbed two handfuls on the rag apron with her rough hands, and then carefully picked up one of them and put it directly in her mouth, bit it with her big teeth, distinguish the authenticity, and after confirming that there was no problem, she happily grabbed the other one and picked it up.

nodded happily like pounding garlic, "eh, eh" full of promises.

The effort was not great, and two plates of pitiful and yellowed vegetables, a whole bowl of black, hard-to-distinguish the real thing, and a few bowls of slightly cloudy thin rice porridge were served.

Although there was no water all day, in the face of the things on this table, the little emperor and the queen mother still looked at it dryly, and did not mention the chopsticks.

The old eunuch will know the looks, and what the master didn't say was to ask him to speak out.

"What are these things, are they for people to eat?"

He picked up a pair of chopsticks and put them in the vegetable and porridge bowls, stirring them back and forth angrily, and splashing a lot of them along the way.

"Father-in-law, why can't you eat this?"

Although Mr. Qiao's tone was not shocked, the chopsticks that tightly clamped the old eunuch's messy hand were amazingly powerful.

The old eunuch was pinched in pain, but he couldn't pull out his hand, so he could only distort his expression, and he couldn't scream "ahhhhhhhhhh

"Mr. Qiao misunderstood, Li Dexi didn't mean that."

The queen mother made a sound, and Mr. Qiao let go of him, wiped the somewhat curved earthen chopsticks on his clothes, and ate them by himself.

"This is a coarse rice husk, these days, ordinary people who still eat big white rice, you are high, you can't get used to it."

"That's the best they can come up with."

After saying this, "he" took the bowl and drank it directly, and in front of him was the situation of Bishan Cottage a few years ago.

The little emperor picked up the bowl and ate it with his head covered, although this bowl of hard-won porridge was really slashing.

The queen mother's eyelashes moved, and she finally raised her orchid fingers in a dignified manner, picked up the bowl, blew it, and sucked it in small sips.

After dinner, I rested at night, and I wanted to roast the fire, and I wanted a velvet quilt, and the tossed chickens and dogs jumped.

It's still Mr. Qiao's shot.

"He" took the scholar Xiao Tangerine and directly took away the quilts sent by the peasant woman, and even hugged the cotton fetal heart that was originally padded underneath.

"The body of a daughter, I'm afraid I can't get used to this."

"No, no, it's customary." The Queen Mother stopped "him" and took these mattresses and held them in her arms.

Turning his head, he glared at the old eunuch fiercely, and commanded fiercely.

"Li Dexi, hurry up and pave it!"

"Huh."

The old eunuch resignedly agreed.
