Chapter 119: A Gentleman Has a Way

The fighting in the night did not continue.

After the movement outside had subsided, the man crouching by the wall felt back to the cellar in the backyard.

The small cellar was crowded with a family, and under the dim light there was a frightened look like a bunch of rats that had been dug out of their nests.

"Is it a rebel?" The huddled family asked.

The man squatting at the entrance of the cave was a little unable to answer: "Not really." ”

What does it mean that it doesn't quite look like?

"When I heard the shouting, the guards will punish the thieves, and those who surrender will not be killed." The man recalled.

The family members in the cellar looked at each other: "We are the guards here, what kind of thieves are you punishing?" ”

"Could it be that the guards are infighting?" The older man guessed.

This is possible, these guards have become thieves, thieves are suspicious, like a grass wind blowing down, the man touched his chin: "But the fight is very fierce and orderly." ”

Behind the wall, he hid and listened to the fighting on the street, like heavy rain falling to the ground, and like a sickle cutting rice, fierce and dense and neat, and the momentum was terrifying.

The infighting among the guards in this mansion can't be to this extent, right?

Whether it was the rebels or the infighting The adults couldn't figure it out, and the children didn't care, biting their fingers and asking vaguely: "Will they kill us?" ”

Yes, that's the key question.

The man looked back at the night where light and darkness converged outside, although the sound of fighting had stopped, but the vibration of the footsteps on the ground had not stopped, and he didn't know when these footsteps would come here, knock on the door of the house, kill them on the spot, or pick out the men and women in green clothes, and kill the useless old and young......

This scene waited until dawn and did not wait.

The shaking of the ground was gone, and the whole city fell asleep in the early morning as usual.

The man stretched out his hand and slowly opened the door, poked his head out of the crack in the door, and at first glance saw that the neighbor on the opposite side was like him, he was startled and relieved, the neighbor was not dead, and the people around him were still alive......

The neighbor was also generally frightened and relieved, and gave him a look, and both of them became bold and squeezed out of the door to stand in the doorway.....

Their alley is not facing the street, there is no tragic scene, there is blood dripping on the road, it should be the injured person running through.....

More people in the alley opened the door and squeezed out, except for the greetings in their eyes: "What's the matter?" ”

No one could answer, and just as everyone slowly gathered together to discuss and walk out into the street to have a look, the calm ground began to shake again, and it was the sound of footsteps, the sound of horses' hooves!

"The thieves have been eliminated, and everyone has nothing to do with it."

"The thieves have been removed, and the guards are defending the city."

The people who fled in a hurry when they felt the ground shake stopped when they heard these words again.

I didn't hear the words clearly, the voice was familiar, it was the group of servants of the government who were raised by Cao Gui.

Is the government still there? So who hit who last night? Is Cao Gui still there, or is the waste prefect still there?

A group of people were frightened outside the door, listening to the officers passing, and the shouts of the street in the distance followed.....

Another sound of footsteps, accompanied by screaming.

"It's Mrs. Chu! Mrs. Chu is here! ”

There were not many steps, only one man seemed to be running, and the hissing sound was more frightening than the previous officers at first glance, but the hesitant people withdrew their feet that had been put in the door......

Mrs. Chu?

Without hesitation, they rushed out into the street, where the scene was terrible, with burning houses, dead bodies and weapons on the ground, and screams from those who rushed out.

They weren't the only ones pouring out of the streets, people were running out of the alleys and even the burning houses.

"How could it be Mrs. Chu?"

"Mrs. Chu has come to our mansion?"

"Really?"

Loud shouts rang out in the dead streets.

Someone ran among the dead bodies and weapons, waving his hands like crazy, crying and laughing: "It's real! The banner of Mrs. Chu! The banner of Mrs. Chu is at the door of the mansion! ”

The streets of dead corpses, blood and weapons are not so terrible, and many people are running to the government office, if it is really fake, you will know it by looking at it.

If it is true, even if there is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire around them, there is nothing to fear, and Mrs. Chu will rescue them.

If it's fake, running out and hiding at home is a dead end, and there's nothing to be afraid of.

Many people were running on the street, the rich man was the fastest, and he was tripped by dead bodies several times on the road, stained with blood, which did not prevent him from rushing to the front of the government office first.

The morning light was brightening, there were more dead bodies outside the palace, and there were many blood-stained soldiers standing in their armor, but this did not frighten the rich households.

The eyes of the rich family only looked at one place, and a black flag on the shelf outside the government office fluttered slowly, and the word Chu on it loomed.

The rich man's tears flowed out at once.

He has been carefree since he was a child, but he didn't expect that the feeling of a dream coming true for the first time in his life would be in the troubled times of blood and corpses.

......

......

Xiang Nan raised his hand slightly to cover the fading morning light, and after staying up all night, his eyes were also a little tired.

The noise outside the palace became louder and louder, accompanied by shouts, cries and laughter calling for Mrs. Chu Guo.

"After taking a look, they all ran back to inform their families and friends." A pro-soldier reported the situation outside, "The people are not in a disturbance. ”

Xiang Nan hummed: "The most important thing is to stabilize the city." ”

His gaze fell to the ground.

Kneeling on the ground was the prefect of Ning'an Mansion, and he could feel the sight without looking up, and he immediately cried again and said: "General, general, discernment, I was willing to be coerced by Cao Gui for the sake of the people." ”

Xiang Nan smiled: "Okay, my lord, get up, go and pacify the people, and let the servants maintain law and order in the city." ”

The prefect of Ning'an Mansion looked up in disbelief, looking at this young and beautiful young general's face, there was really no bit of viciousness, and there was nothing difficult to understand, just like Cao Gui, he needed him as a civil official.

"The subordinate will go now, general, don't worry." He immediately stood up and straightened his crumpled official robe, "It's not that the subordinate official brags about himself, the subordinate still has a certain prestige among the people......

Speaking of this, the young general in front of him looked like he was smiling, this young general was good-looking and graceful, but the white robe he was wearing was stained red with blood, and he was playing with a spear in his hand, and the cold light was shining......

This is a man who killed thousands of soldiers and horses in an instant night attack.

The prefect stumbled a few times, turned around and ran out in a hurry.

Xiang Nan ignored him, pinched his brows with one hand and said, "The news hasn't leaked, right?" ...... The generals who surrendered to Cheng were all optimistic..... Put the corpses on the street in order....."

He asked for instructions one by one, and his own soldiers answered by his side, and there was a sound of footsteps outside, and Chen Er came in with someone dressed in a cold wind.

"This guy is really fast." He said, throwing a homeless man on the ground, "A scholar who can run faster than us." ”

The homeless fell to the ground, his hair scattered and his face was revealed, it was Mr. Tingru.

"If you were a rebel, you wouldn't run." He sat up, smoothed out his messy hair, and said lightly, "I can't bear to be killed by the guards, and it is my sorrow, your sorrow, and the sorrow of the court!" ”

Chen Erdao: "What do you say? Do not understand. Ignore him and look at Xiang Nan, "This guy has run out of Ning'an Mansion, can he really run, is it a rabbit?" As a doorman, he didn't depend on Cao Gui's life and death, and ran away from the secret passage by himself....."

Mr. Tingru said: "As a guard, I still kill each other, how can I say it? ”

Chen Er and Mr. Tingru are lively when you say a word, Xiang Nan is still slowly wiping his gun, and he commands the city defense placement to his own soldiers....

Chen Eryi kicked Mr. Tingru away and asked impatiently, "What to do with this guy?" ”

Xiang Nan didn't even look at this side: "Kill it." ”

Chen Er waved his hand and pulled out his knife......

It's really going to be killed!

"Captain Xiang! Listen to me. Mr. Tingru hurriedly shouted.

Xiang Nan still didn't look at him, and wiped the spear in his hand clean.

Mr. Tingru rolled on the ground to dodge, but Chen Er's knife was not pretending, he didn't dodge, and the long knife was about to fall on top of his head in an instant.....

"I can help you convince the generals of Xuanwu Dao to not spend a single soldier on the captain!" He hissed and cried out, holding his hand around his head.

There was a bang, but the knife did not fall.

He can kill people with a pen in his hand, but it is not a shield armor, and he can't stop the knife of a brute..... But he was not dead, and Mr. Tingru looked through his arm, and a spear rested above his head, blocking the falling knife.

The white-robed young general looked at him condescendingly: "Aren't you trying to persuade them not to reunite as an army, ignore me, and drive me out of Xuanwudao?" ”

Chen Er, who was holding the knife, jumped to his feet: "Is it to kill or stay, can you say it after you think about it?" ”

Mr. Tingru pushed away the jumping soldier and got up: "That's because I am Cao Gui's disciple, and I take Cao Gui's position and the position of Xuanwu Dao rebels, to choose what is most beneficial to us, the matter of eating the king's loyalty to the king, and it is natural for me to do so." ”

Xiang Nan didn't speak, just looked at him.

Even if the family is stained with blood, he looks very elegant with a spear, but his eyes are even more terrifying than a fierce general like Cao Gui.

Mr. Tingru was not in the mood to tidy up his appearance and put on a momentum, lest he would be pierced by this young general's spear if he said a word late, and said in one breath: "If Captain Xiang accepts me for use, I will naturally think about Captain Xiang and Xuanwu Dao for Captain Xiang." ”

Xiang Nan looked at the scribe wearing the clothes of the homeless people and his head was covered with smudges, and nodded: "Okay, then I will wait for the good news of Mr." ”
