There was a moment of silence in the hall.
No one would have thought that this gentle, kind, fairy-like person would speak so mercilessly.
It's just a word for words.
Yan Ling jumped up: "I haven't said anything like this!" You're spewing blood."
She trembled with anger, pointed at Mu Yueting and shouted, "You are her sister, of course you are facing her." You, you're in her boat! β
Mu Yueting said in a cold voice: "As Miss Yan said, I, as an elder sister, saw my sister being bullied, so I should stand up and defend her for a few sentences."
You say that my sister has no conscience, but I want to ask, from the accident to the present, what have you done besides crying? Did you cry, and Chang Gongzi came back?
Our little four children are used to seeing wind and rain, and they can't cope with this fashion and confusion, so Miss Yan is interested in accusing her and arguing with me.
Right and wrong, cold and thin, are seen with the eyes, not with the mouth. β
Yan Ling was disgusted by Chang Qianfo because of her calculation of Mu Dianke, and she hated Mu Dianke to the bone. Chang Qianfo disappeared suddenly, her heart ached, full of grief and the resentment that had accumulated on weekdays, all of which were spilled out to Mu Dianke.
Half slander, but half truth.
She grew up in Changjiabao, lived under the protection of her elders since she was a child, and almost never experienced any ups and downs. When she first heard the news of Chang Qianfo's disappearance, she almost fainted like Jiang Yiyi.
Of course, she couldn't understand why Mu Dianke could still keep his composure and say such a big thing in an orderly manner under such circumstances.
Mu Dian didn't respond to her accusation with a weak heart, how could he think of killing a sharp-toothed Mu Yueting halfway and splashing back all the dirty water.
Yan Ling was extremely angry, but she couldn't find anything to refute. He simply turned his back, covered his face and began to cry.
This cry triggered sadness, and the sadness came from it, and the more I cried, the louder I became, and the other ladies also wiped their tears.
More than half of the men in Huairen Hall were sent out to find Chang Qianfo, and the other half were left to deal with the mob who took advantage of the chaos to rob money, cleaning and taking care of the halls and gardens that were in a mess by the patients.
The elderly, the weak, women and children were gathered in the main hall to take care of them.
Jiang Yue presided over the aftermath and couldn't get out, Guan Shibei had to take care of chores, but also appease a group of panicked female dependents, and when she heard this, she cried again, her head was big, and she hurriedly asked someone to take Yan Ling away.
Although Yan Ling was dizzy from crying, she understood in her heart.
If he left at this time, he would be wronged, and he would really confirm Mu Yueting's statement.
Crying and holding the chair and refusing to leave, he said that he wanted to stay here and wait for the news of Chang Qianfo.
Everyone was helpless, and they couldn't forcibly drag her away, so they had to let her go.
Aunt Zhang asked someone to send a bowl of ginseng soup, but Mu Dian didn't need to be persuaded by anyone, he took a bowl and drank it all, sat quietly for a while, and suddenly looked up at Mu Yueting and said, "What is the situation at the city gate now?" β
Mu Yueting came to Chuzhou with Su Hongyu, and now that she is gone, Su Hongyu will definitely send someone to look for her, so she may know the deployment of the government.
Mu Yueting shook her head.
Fei Rong and Lan Zhu'er did come to look for her, and the two of them were now in Huairentang, but as soon as they encountered civil unrest, they immediately set off to find her, and they didn't know what the situation of defending the city was.
At this moment, Ling Fu and Li Tong came back, both of them were generally disheveled, and their descriptions were quite embarrassing, which showed what the chaos was like outside.
As soon as Mu Dianke saw Ling Fu, she immediately stood up, Yan Ling rushed out one step ahead of her, grabbed Ling Fu's sleeve, and said urgently: "Uncle Ling, have you found Brother Chang?" β
Ling Fu's face was heavy and he shook his head.
Although he was sad in his heart, but Chang Qianfo was not there, he had to take the responsibility of presiding over the overall situation, forcibly suppress the worries in his heart, and comfort everyone:
"Don't worry, it's chaos in the city right now, and it's not that easy to find someone. No news is good news. β
He was really tired, but he didn't dare to take a break, took the tea from Xinyang's hand and drank it, and immediately turned around to arrange the help of the organizers, and went to Li Daodao: "Li Tong, you tell the fourth lady about the situation in the city." β
The voice is hoarse, with deep weakness and exhaustion, which makes people feel uncomfortable when they listen to it.
Even if Ling Fu ordered it, Li Tong didn't dare to be sloppy, and explained the situation to Mu Dianke in detail:
ββ¦β¦ The newly appointed assassin Shi Chen Ning was a ruthless character, and as soon as he received the news of the riot, he immediately led his troops to seal the nearest south gate. When we returned, we heard that the east and west gates were almost blocked, but ......"
Li Tong sighed heavily, and his face was unbearable:
Chen Ning dispatched archers, poured tung oil on the city gate, and pulled up a wall of fire. Those who did not withdraw in time were all shot and killed, and many were burned alive.
It scared off a group of people.
There are also people who see blood and red eyes, and they are angry and kill officers and soldiers.
Now the people of the whole city are pouring to the north, these people are emotional, the Assassin Mansion is not strong enough, Uncle Ling and I plan to bring some people over to support......"
Mu Dian can understand the assassination history called Chen Ning very well.
It sounds cruel to be in a hurry, exchanging the lives of a small number of people for more people, but at the moment, there is really no better way.
If the plague patients all over the city poured out and harmed a country, then the consequences would be unimaginable.
Ling Fu did not forget to assist the government in defending the city in this situation, which also reminded Mu Dianke that the more everyone panicked, the more she had to be stable.
Chang Qianfo is important, but it is also important to guard the city gate and prevent the plague from spreading.
Otherwise, when Chang Qianfo comes back and sees that the patients have all gone out of the city, so many days of hard work have been in vain, I don't know how sad it will be.
She was a little calm, supporting her forehead with one hand, her eyebrows furrowed, and she was thinking hard about what to do.
Mu Yueting saw that Mu Dianke lowered her head and didn't make a sound for a long time, only when she was hit too hard and was too sad, she didn't dare to make a sound to disturb, but only gently patted her back to comfort her.
Mu Dianke suddenly raised his head: "Sister, do you remember the game of fairy descent that we used to play when we were young?" Every time, you pretend to be a fairy, and I will be your little fairy. β
Mu Yueting's eyes were red at her "sister" call, and she said suddenly: "I remember." Many times, you said that you also wanted to be a fairy, but I was ignorant at that time, and I always refused to let you ......"
Speaking of the sad part, she covered her mouth with her hands, and the tears seemed to fall down, and her voice was choked:
"After you had an accident, I often hated myself, why did I have to fight with you at that time, why didn't I let you ...... more"
Mu Dianke's eyes were also red, he got up and hugged Mu Yueting, patted her back lightly like she comforted herself, and suddenly let go and walked towards Jiang Yiyi.
Xinliu took a step forward and stopped in front of Jiang Yiyi: "You, what are you going to do?" β
