"Drive!"

A fast horse rushed into the palace in a panic, and before he could get off the horse, he shouted loudly: "Go to the prince, the big thing is not good, the revolutionary party controls the Forbidden City, the emperor has an order, the left arm is a micro-business, and it is important to save your life." ”

A few subordinates ran to the inner house.

In the back garden, the big-bellied prince is drinking tea.

In recent years, the imperial court has been worse every year, the influence of all aspects is regressing, and the soldiers and horses in various places have begun to disobey the yin and yang, and they also love to ignore the orders of the imperial court.

He also searched for a long time before he got a little bit of the real Ming Qian Longjing, and hurriedly brewed a cup like a treasure, ready to taste it later, and have a good taste of it.

As soon as he took a sip of tea, someone shouted and rushed in.

"Lord, lord, it's not good."

The state of mind that the prince had finally brewed was destroyed in an instant, and he immediately frowned: "What's the matter?" What kind of system is it to be so flustered! ”

"Lord Wang, the big thing is not good, the revolutionary army rushed into the Forbidden City, and the emperor has an order...... Keeping you alive. ”

The prince's hand shook, and the cup of Mingqian Longjing, which had just been brewed, fell to the ground.

The hot water splashed and scalded the prince's foot.

But he didn't have time to cry out in pain, so he hurriedly slapped the table and shouted: "Quick, go and inform Gege that the situation has changed, and tell her to evacuate as planned." ”

"Huh!" The subordinate hurriedly answered, turned his head and ran to the inner house.

After a while, a twenty-eight beautiful woman hurriedly ran out, saw the prince hurriedly gave a salute, and shouted: "Amma, how is the emperor?" ”

The prince looked at his daughter and sighed deeply.

He waved his hand and told his men to come down and pack their things.

"The emperor's situation was very bad, and he was forced by the revolutionary party to issue an edict on the throne. Yuan Shikai's dog thing has become the president, and our Great Qing Kingdom is completely finished this time! ”

He stretched out his sleeves, wiped the corners of his eyes, and suddenly gritted his teeth and scolded: "It's all to blame for these chaotic parties, as well as those foreigners, and these wine bags and rice bags under their hands, none of them are of top use." Lafayette has only been gone for a few days, and the Great Qing Kingdom will not be able to support it, and even a noble person of our status will have to flee for his life.

Since the founding of the Qing Dynasty, how can there be such a thing? Shame, shame. ”

Gege was a little flustered. "Amma, what should we do then?"

The prince shook his head and patted his daughter's shoulder.

"Now the market is very chaotic, and I don't know what this revolutionary party will toss next, if the head is hot, and shouting and killing, I'm afraid that the lives of our eighth-level children will be ......."

Speaking of this, the prince sighed.

Gege clutched his handkerchief tightly like a frightened bunny.

"In short, the family can't stay for a long time, before Ama, he had sent someone out to make a retreat, and he was placed in your uncle Sanjiangkou. You go and avoid it for a while, and once the situation improves, Amma will send someone to bring you back, okay? ”

Gege felt a little relieved, and worried about his father again.

"What about you? What are you going to do? If you don't come with me, you can hide with your uncle for a while. ”

"Nonsense!" The prince scolded: "I, a serious prince of eight hundred, is a real Manchu nobleman, what does it look like to run to my uncle's house to flee for my life?" Do you want this reputation in our family?

You, don't worry, Ama is the prince after all, there are still sober-minded people in the revolutionary party, they won't touch me easily, you can rest assured. ”

As he spoke, the prince's eyes turned red.

These words are to comfort and comfort his daughter, in fact, he is also very panicked in his heart, in his eyes, these revolutionary parties are no different from the chaotic people of all dynasties.

Think about the scenes in the history books about riots and officials being slaughtered and slaughtered.

The prince felt chills down his spine.

But this house, the hat on his head, is the inheritance passed down by his ancestors for hundreds of years, and even if he dies, he can't lose the inheritance of his ancestors.

In fact, he knew it in his heart.

After so many years, there is no decent foundation in the family.

First they made trouble with foreigners, then with the Boxers, and finally with the revolutionary party, and they all disturbed and made trouble.

The street has never been quiet, and most of the family's property has been sold, in order to maintain the appearance of the palace.

Even if the revolutionary party does not enter the capital, at most for another year or two, the family may not even have the money to buy rice.

In the roll, there was a panic.

The slaves and servants fell over, turned over the boxes, packed all kinds of valuable, seemingly valuable things, pulled out the several large carriages that had been prepared in the backyard, and stuffed them vigorously.

After all, it is a deep heritage, there is nothing without things, and there are five or six carriages stuffed.

This is not only prepared for Gege, but also some of the subordinates who secretly took it in order to prepare for their own back.

Not to mention the palace, now even the eunuchs in the Forbidden City have blatantly sold the treasures in the palace.

People don't do it for themselves, heaven and earth will be destroyed, they are hard-working people, they have been slaves to others for a lifetime, and when they are coming, of course they have to think about themselves.

The steward also dutifully commanded, beckoning the servants to handle them with care, or to arrange things in different categories.

However, how can he see so many people with a pair of eyes.

At this time, the prince led Gege and brought a little maid out.

Some sad instructed: "The carriage is down, I am ready for you, you should be careful to stay overnight along the way, take the big road, don't take the small road, in case you meet a strong man who cuts the path, don't force reason, you give him whatever she wants, don't reveal your identity."

If you let others know that you are Gege and a noble girl, I am afraid that you will suffer another sin. ”

"Amma, I'm afraid, or you can come with me."

"Don't say stupid things!"

The prince took Gege's hand and patted it gently: "I have prepared three copies of the silver for you, and put them in different places, the passbook I gave you before, you put it away closely, this is what you can save your life." ”

He paused, looked up at the sky, and continued: "Originally, I was going to let you leave tomorrow morning, and while I have time tonight, our father and daughter will have a good drink."

But now I've changed my mind, and when I'm ready to pack my things, you'll set off at once. Don't forget, be careful on the road, keep your mouth tight, don't talk nonsense, and remember to hide in case you encounter a revolutionary party. ”

Gege grabbed the prince's sleeve tightly, and his eyes were red.

"Ama ......"

"Okay, don't say anything, have more eyes for yourself."

At this time, the butler ran over in small steps and reported, "Lord Wang, the car and luggage are ready." ”

The prince nodded, "Then set off immediately." ”

After speaking, he suddenly found that his daughter was still dressed as a Manchu noblewoman.

"The clothes on your body are not right, hurry up and change into the clothes of the children of the Han family, it is better to be simple. And take off all the beads on your head and the jewelry on your arms, now it's a run for your life, you think it's shopping. ”

After speaking, seeing that Gege still didn't move, the prince shook his head, pointed to the little maid beside him and said, "Du Juan, your master is already in chaos, you go and help her clean up." She's a poor person now, and I, the Amma, can't be with me, you're his only relative.

You usually see it, you don't know anything except piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, you have been out there, you have rich experience, help me take care of it a little more. ”

The cuckoo replied crisply: "Don't worry, lord, Gege is my master, and she is as kind to me as a mountain, I will definitely take care of her." I'm going to change my clothes in Gege. ”

The prince waved his hand: "Go, go." ”

The cuckoo gave a salute and dragged Gege into the back room.

After a while, the two of them changed into plain clothes and walked out, the jewelry on the top of their heads, necks, and wrists were all gone, their clothes were plain, and the makeup on their faces was washed.

On the whole, except for being a little immature, the difference between them and ordinary Han women is not big.

The prince was a little relieved.

He didn't know what to say now, so he stopped talking several times with his daughter, and sent her to the door little by little.

Outside the gate, a carriage was already waiting there, and the people who drove the carriage looked loyal and honest, standing respectfully on the side, and when they saw the prince and Gege coming out, they hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

The two masters didn't have time to deal with their subordinates, and they were both immersed in sadness.

Seeing that the carriage was in front of him, Gege finally panicked.

"Amma, you'd better come with me. I beg you. ”。

"Don't talk nonsense, listen to my arrangement, hurry up and get in the car, be good, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, isn't the cuckoo by your side, if there is anything that can't be decided, just ask her, and she will give you an idea."

dragged Gege into the carriage.

"Laifu, take care of Gege on the road, and have more eyes. What about you? Go and go back quickly, and give this box to my brother to keep it. ”

Afterwards, Wang Yan took a small vermilion box from the butler's hand and handed it to the coachman Laifu.

Laifu patted his chest and promised: "Lord Wang, don't worry, the little one is fighting for this life, and he can't let Gege hurt a cold hair." ”

"Good! Let's go, let's go. The prince nodded again and again.

Rifle saluted, jumped on the wheel, and the horsewhip blew out.

The carriage departed suddenly.

The prince and the housekeeper stood behind, teary eyes.

On the streets, revolutionary troops in gray military uniforms are arresting people everywhere.

Most of the people who were arrested were dressed richly, and the big braids on the back of their heads were black and shiny.

They panicked and struggled.

"Let go of me, let go of me, you can't cut it, you can't cut it!"

The revolutionary army didn't care about holding down his head, and pulling up his braid was a pair of scissors.

The braid was cut off, and the man seemed to have his spirit and spirit cut off, and his whole body was weakly paralyzed on the ground, and his face was as pale as a dead mother.

The revolutionary army didn't care about him, and then captured the next one.
