Chapter 508: Planning to Escape
Qian Qianqian looked at Xue Yi's figure, and sighed in her heart, they were all women, how could she not see Xue Yi's thoughts, but in the face of Xiao Mohan, Xue Yi's heart was afraid that it was going to fail.
Xue Yi sent the silver and tonic to Tong Qian according to what she said, and Tong Qian did not complain at all, but was grateful to Qian Qianqian, and it was a rare blessing to meet such a good master as her.
For several days, there was no movement in the capital, Qian Qianqian had been staying in the General's Mansion, all the news was transmitted by Xue Yi from outside, she specially explained to Xue Yi, no matter what happened outside, she had to tell her as it was, and there must be no concealment, and Xue Yi has always done so.
Although the capital is peaceful, Qian Qianqian always feels that something is not quite right, and the real wind and rain are always hidden under the calm, so the calmer it is, the more dangerous it is.
At night, Qian Qianqian finally fell asleep, and incense was lit on the table, which was given to her by Jiang Sheng, saying that it was a sleep aid, and the effect was really good after using it for a few days, but sometimes she had too many things on her mind and couldn't sleep.
At this time, there was a strange noise outside, the fire was in the sky, Xue Yi broke in, and Qian Qianqian was suddenly woken up.
"Miss Qian, it's not good, the Li family has colluded with Xiao Hengyu's party and has already invaded the capital, the slave maid and Yuan Ying escorted you away, you hurry up."
Xue Yi was very anxious, took a few clothes for Qian Qianqian, and pulled her to run out, but Qian Qianqian was a little dazed, sleeping in a daze, and hadn't come back to her senses yet.
"Miss Qian, let's go, Miss Qian......"
Xue Yi raised her hand, shook it in front of Qian Qianqian's eyes, and reminded her repeatedly.
"How did those people break through the gates? What about Lord Shao? ”
Qian Qianqian came back to her senses, her face was gloomy, her expression became solemn, her brows were furrowed, and although she was nervous, she was not chaotic at all.
"Lord Shao led the troops to resist, but his legs and feet were inconvenient and he couldn't go to the battlefield, so he had retreated to the palace now, and if the palace gate was breached, the capital would fall into the hands of others."
Xue Yi explained in a fifteen-ten manner that if the situation was not too critical, she would not have rushed to Qian Qianqian late at night to escort Qian Qianqian away.
"In this case, I can't leave, the capital is the time to employ people, if I leave, if something happens, I won't be at ease in my life."
Qian Qianqian thought about it in her heart, shook her head, and said very surely, she didn't leave last time, and finally waited for Shao Huaigu's rescue, she believed that this time it would be the same.
"This time the situation is critical, it's very different from the last time, it was Lord Shao who sent a message and asked the slave to escort you away, if it wasn't for the last resort, Lord Shao wouldn't have made such a decision, so Miss Qian, don't rub it any longer."
Xue Yi looked nervous, her eyes glanced out of the window from time to time, a layer of cold sweat broke out on her forehead, and now the general's mansion was in a mess, and she didn't know when those thieves would rush in, so she didn't dare to take this risk, she just wanted to take Qian Qianqian and leave as soon as possible.
"If there is a change in the capital and the throne falls into the hands of others, do you think General Xiao, who is far away on the border, will be safe and sound?"
Qian Qianqian's words changed, and suddenly mentioned this, which stopped Xue Yi, the imperial court is Xiao Mohan's reliance on the frontier, if the imperial court is gone, then Xiao Mohan will definitely suffer from the enemy, Xiao Heng and others will definitely take the opportunity to make Xiao Mohan doomed.
"Why, don't you dare to say it? Only by keeping the capital and the imperial court can General Xiao be safe, if you want General Xiao to return triumphantly, we must stay and fight the enemy together with the people of the capital. ”
Qian Qianqian saw that Xue Yi was silent, so she struck while the iron was hot and tried to persuade Xue Yi, Xue Yi had always been worried about Xiao Mohan's safety and would not entangle with her in this matter.
"Having said that, it's too dangerous for you to stay, and the slave really doesn't dare to take this risk."
Xue Yi hesitated, she has always been decisive in doing things, but even here in Qian Qianqian, she hesitated several times and broke her principles again and again.
"Now that the matter is urgent, we don't have time to discuss this matter, listen to me, we have to get through this difficulty together, and no one can be left alone."
Qian Qianqian said categorically, now there is a mess outside, and thick smoke is billowing out, it can be seen that those thieves are killing people and setting fire in Beijing, and she must defend this land.
Xue Yi had nothing to say, she took out the long whip on her waist and escorted Qian Qianqian out, the outside was indeed even more chaotic than the last time, there were many corpses lying on the street, and a strong smell of blood came to her face, it was simply purgatory on earth.
"We can't stay outside, let's hurry into the palace."
Qian Qianqian looked around, and saw that there were indeed a lot of thieves, and immediately made a decision in her heart, Yuan Ying answered outside, and a team of guards followed, escorting Qian Qianqian closely.
Yuan Ying knew that Qian Qianqian was not going to avoid the limelight, although she was worried, she didn't dare to persuade her, the situation was tense at this time, and if she was out for a moment longer, it would be more dangerous.
"Get in the car."
Xue Yi escorted Qian Qianqian to the carriage, those guards were around to protect, the carriage rushed out of the crowd and was surrounded by enemy troops, fortunately the coachman and horses were well trained, otherwise they would not be able to get out at all.
Qian Qianqian was so jolted that even if she was supported by Xueyi, she couldn't sit still at all, fortunately she didn't eat anything for dinner, otherwise she would have to vomit all the food in her stomach with this bump.
"Be careful." Xue Yi suddenly pulled Qian Qianqian, an arrow slashed over her head, Qian Qianqian bowed, a layer of cold sweat broke out on her forehead, listening to the sound of fighting outside, it seemed to be intensifying.
The carriage finally rushed to the gate of the palace, Qin Li was leading people to confront the enemy, and when he saw Qian Qianqian coming, he was very surprised, and killed the enemy in front of him, and ran to Qian Qianqian with all his might.
"Miss Qian, why are you here? There is a mess outside the palace, so you should hurry up and avoid the limelight. ”
Qin Li's face and body were covered with blood, and he was slightly injured, his expression was anxious, and he was panting.
"I'm going to enter the palace, and now the situation is so anxious, I have to see Lord Shao and the emperor."
Qian Qianqian was very determined, biting her lower lip tightly, clenching her fists with both hands, her face was pale, but her eyes were full of indescribable perseverance.
Qin Li was a little surprised, just as he was about to persuade, several more enemy soldiers rushed over, Yuan Ying immediately went up to block it, Qin Li glanced left and right, and could only agree.
"Now there are all enemy troops outside this palace, you follow me, take a shortcut, and as soon as the palace door opens, you will enter immediately, you must move quickly, don't stay for a moment."
Qin Li stood in front of Qian Qianqian, admonishing as she walked, Qian Qianqian nodded one after another, keeping up with Qin Li's pace, and Xue Yi was always by her side to protect her.
The palace gate opened a crack, and under Qin Li's cover, Qian Qianqian and Xue Yi slipped in one after another, and Yuan Ying and the other guards from the General's Mansion were outside to help Qin Li.
Now that the emperor's body is getting better, when he learns about this, he also struggles to sit up from the dragon bed, and there are a number of ministers kneeling in front of him, Shao Huaigu and Jiang Sheng are also there, looking at the emperor's face, he is really worried.
Qian Qianqian broke into the Heart Cultivation Palace, everyone's eyes were focused on her, and now everyone is busy escaping from the capital, she dares to enter the palace, it's unbelievable.
"The people's daughter sees the emperor."
Although Qian Qianqian was in a hurry, she still remembered the basic etiquette, so she knelt down and saluted the emperor.
"Get up." The emperor coughed lightly a few times, his face was like stagnant water, the clothes behind his back were soaked with cold sweat, his lips were white, and his body seemed to have lost a lot of weight.
"Miss Qian, why did you enter the palace at this time? Now there is chaos outside the palace, and we are already discussing to send the emperor out of the capital. ”
Shao Huaigu immediately stepped forward, his expression was very solemn, and as soon as these words came out, Qian Qianqian couldn't help but get nervous.
"What do you say? Run away? Now that the enemy has just arrived, you are going to run? This is the capital, if you throw it away, what is the difference between it and the country? ”
Qian Qianqian didn't expect Shao Huaigu to make this decision, she always felt that Shao Huaigu was smart and tenacious, but now it seems that she looked away.
"The most important thing is to protect the emperor now, if we wait for those people to attack us, we will all be dead, so we can't control so much at all."
Shao Huaigu raised his head, it seemed that he had made up his mind, his brows were furrowed, there was no room for negotiation at all, and he stood still in place.
"What about General Xiao? He is still fighting on the frontier, if the capital is gone, what will happen to the grain and grass that supplies the frontier? If those people capture the capital, they will definitely attack General Xiao back and forth, and when General Xiao is attacked on his back, do you still want him to come back alive? ”
Qian Qianqian stared at Shao Huaigu's face, the corners of her forehead were flushed, she gritted her teeth, her eyes were wet, but she was not weak at all.
"General Xiao's side can think of another way, he has been fighting on the battlefield for many years, he is not so fragile, and now he is burning his eyebrows, and he must solve the matter in front of him first."
Shao Huaigu's tone was heavy, but he was still calm, he had never been impatient, and it was the same now.
"In sight? There's only one way you can escape? You people are all civil and military officials of Xiao State, and the entire Xiao Country depends on you to take care of it, I thought that you were all selected by thousands of people, and you will definitely be able to govern Xiao Country well and let the people live a good life, it seems that I am looking at the wrong person, you are all a group of wine bags and rice bags. ”
Qian Qianqian was unceremoniously, pointed at those officials, and scolded mercilessly, she has never been a timid person, she almost lost her life several times, and she didn't care about it at this time.
"How can you be so rude, woman? This is in front of Your Majesty, you are so wild, you deserve to die. ”
"That's it, where did the wild woman come from, dare to talk nonsense in this Heart Nourishing Palace, Your Majesty, Lord Shao, according to Weichen, she should be dragged out and beaten to death with a stick."
Those officials were annoyed and angry, and suddenly jumped like thunder, gossiping at Qian Qianqian, now that Xiao Mohan is not here, this capital is an eventful time, and none of them know if Xiao Mohan can come back alive, so at this time, they will blow their beard and stare at Qian Qianqian, and they will not restrain themselves.
"Shut up."
Shao Huaigu turned his head and scolded coldly, and those ministers suddenly quieted down, lowered their heads, and cowered, not even daring to come out.
The emperor looked at this scene, just leaned on the side of the bed, and did not make a sound, he had only recently ascended the throne, and if he calculated carefully, he was still just a child, how could he control such a complicated situation now.
