Chapter 377: Threatened
"Grandfather, grandmother."
Seeing Old Lady Xiao and Old Lady Xiao, Xiao Lingfeng hurriedly stepped forward to help them and help them loosen their ties.
And Yang Shuo on the side also immediately stepped forward to help.
"Ahh
The screams wafted over the square, and they could not be subsided for a long time.
Xiao Ling looked back slightly, but saw Master Xiao covering his leg and falling to the ground, with an arrow stuck in his right thigh, and a pool of blood soon gathered under his feet.
"Xiao Lingwei, listen, this is a warning to you, the next arrow is not a leg, it is their heart." Li Zhenxiao shouted: "This king wants to see if you have saved more Xiao family members, or if this king has killed more Xiao family members." ”
"Haha..."After speaking, Li Zhenxiao laughed arrogantly.
Xiao Ling's face sank slightly, and she was about to rush down, but she was stopped.
It was Mrs. Xiao who grabbed her.
"Grandmother?"
Old Madam Xiao still had a rope on her wrist that was about to be untied, but she couldn't wait, she was afraid that Xiao Ling would act impulsively, so she hurriedly grabbed Xiao Lingwei: "Weiwei, you can't go, he will kill your uncles and brothers, you can't go." ”
Xiao Ling endured it slightly and said, "I will not surrender to him." ”
Old lady Xiao came over and persuaded: "Child, the situation is stronger than people, we have to give in, for the sake of the Xiao family, you better give up." ”
Xiao Ling looked at Old Lady Xiao in surprise, and was indignant: "He brought troops into the palace without permission, put His Majesty under house arrest, killed the five princes, he is rebelling, shouldn't everyone punish such rebellious ministers and thieves?"
"What's more, he killed my grandfather and killed so many people, he is a traitor, and I will never give in to him."
Xiao Ling straightened up slightly, held her head high, and looked unyielding.
Old Madam Xiao's eyes turned red sharply, and her voice became sharp: "But hundreds of people up and down the Xiao family are in his hands, do you want to watch them die?" ”
Xiao Ling paused slightly.
At this time, Xiao Chu's voice came from below: "Auntie, don't give in, our Xiao family is not afraid of death." ”
"Achu." Mrs. Xiao shouted at him and said, "Don't talk nonsense. ”
Xiao Chu was not convinced, and said with his neck high: "Grandmother, I didn't talk nonsense, my great-grandfather taught us since we were children that mighty cannot be bent, and wealth cannot be lewd." ”
Mrs. Xiao choked and couldn't say anything to refute.
Mrs. Xiao San shouted loudly: "Weiwei, how much the third aunt usually loves you, you know, the third aunt doesn't ask you to save me, only asks you to save your tenth brother, he loves you the most on weekdays." ”
As soon as Mrs. Xiao San began, several other ladies shouted one after another, just to ask Xiao Lingwei to save them in the family's affection.
Xiao Ling showed a slightly embarrassed expression, she was very hesitant, but she really wanted to give in to Li Zhenxiao, and she was very unwilling.
Old Madam Xiao saw her vacillation and continued to persuade: "Weiwei, we are just ordinary people, and we can't control who will be the emperor in the world." No matter who becomes emperor, we just need to live our lives.
"Weiwei, on weekdays, everyone hurts you the most, your uncle was hit by an arrow in the leg, maybe he will become a cripple in the future.
"This is not bad, at least your life is still there, if you still insist on going your own way, then your uncle and second uncle... All the Xiao family members will die under ten thousand arrows, what is the point of me and your grandfather living at that time?
"The Xiao family, which has been inherited for hundreds of years, is coming to an end."
Old lady Xiao said to Xiao Lingwei in a commanding tone: "You are the descendant of our Xiao family, you should give up your ridiculous self-esteem for the inheritance of the Xiao family."
"Giving in for a moment doesn't mean anything, it's just judging the situation and making the most correct choice."
Xiao Ling struggled slightly and said, "But King Ding'an killed my grandfather, and he killed so many people, he is rebelling." ”
"So what?" Old lady Xiao looked indifferent: "The current situation is that we are pinched in our hands, and people are swordsmen and I am fish and meat." If you can save it but don't save it, and the Xiao family perishes because of you, then you are also a murderer, and you are the sinner of the Xiao family. ”
Xiao Ling was slightly stunned, what else could she do if Old Lady Xiao imposed such a heavy charge on her?
"Grandfather, I'm very embarrassed." Xiao Lingfeng couldn't look at it, and came out and said.
Old Lady Xiao glared at him: "Don't I know yet?" But now that the situation is stronger than people, what can I do? Don't you care about the hundreds of people up and down the Xiao family? ”
Yang Shuo stood on the side and hesitated, and at the same time felt very sorry for Xiao Lingwei, on the one hand, the country's righteousness, on the other hand, family affection and filial piety, no matter what choice she made, she would be criticized.
Li Zhenxiao saw the situation above, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.
Han Da glanced at him and shouted at Xiao Ling, "County Lord, have you thought about it carefully?" Our patience is limited. ”
Xiao Ling thought of Xiao Linhui slightly, they should have arrived at the Gyeonggi camp by now, so she thought about it and said to Li Zhenxiao: "Okay, I promise you, but you must promise not to hurt anyone here." ”
"Okay." Li Zhenxiao readily agreed.
......
Gyeonggi Daying.
Xiao Linhui flashed his talisman and shouted: "Your Majesty has a decree, the king of Ding'an and the prince of Zhenguo rebelled, and you should quickly lead the troops into the palace with me to rescue the driver." ”
The generals were stunned for a moment, and then exchanged glances with each other.
Someone tentatively asked, "Dare to ask who this is?" ”
Xiao Lingyun said: "This is Lord Xiao of Yizhou Thorn History, who was once His Majesty's most trusted Hanlin Scholar. ”
"Oh, it turned out to be Lord Xiao, disrespectful and disrespectful." The man clenched his fists.
Xiao Linhui said: "Generals, without further ado, let's go to the palace to save the car." ”
The man said: "Don't be in a hurry, it happened suddenly, this time we need to gather soldiers and horses, we must first confirm the authenticity of the talisman, right?" In case someone has bad intentions..."
As he spoke, he blinked: "Lord Xiao, I didn't mean you, but it's better to be careful with this kind of thing." ”
"The general is right." Xiao Linhui held the talisman and let them watch.
At this time, the sky was getting brighter, and several generals wanted to see it clearly, so they slowly approached Xiao Linxuan.
At this moment, a hand quickly stretched out, and the other snatched the talisman.
Xiao Linhui was shocked: "What do you want to do?" ”
It was the general who had just spoken to Xiao Linjue.
Xiao Linhui has never been to the Gyeonggi camp, and he has been out for three years, and he doesn't know who there are in the Gyeonggi camp, originally he thought that as long as the military talisman was shown and His Majesty's special envoy was there, they would obediently dispatch troops and follow him into the palace.
Unexpectedly, the sudden change caught him off guard.
Xiao Lingyun immediately blocked Xiao Linxuan's side and looked at them vigilantly.
The man took the talisman and looked at it a few times, and then said, "This talisman is fake, come on, arrest this thief who pretends to pass on the holy decree." ”
As soon as the words fell, a group of soldiers rushed up from around.
The two black-clothed guards sent by the emperor, one of them returned to the palace to report the news, and the other protected Xiao Linhui to come to the Gyeonggi camp.
