Chapter 133: Death in childbirth

Ling Ning saw that there was a commotion outside, and he had no idea for a while, so he hurried to the house, but he didn't see Yu Zhiyan on the bed, so he was anxious for a while.

When she was about to go outside the house, she saw Yu Zhiyan on the ground, her blue clothes were already full of bright red blood, and her white forehead was covered with fine sweat.

Ling Ning was so frightened that he had already lost his mind, and now that there was such chaos outside, he suddenly didn't even have an idea.

She was just about to rush out of the house, but she heard Yu Zhiyan shouting in a painful voice: "I'm about to give birth, go find the queen mother." ”

Now that the rebels are attacking the city, who can take care of whom, she originally wanted to leave it alone, but after thinking about it, this Luoyang City is indestructible, how can it be captured overnight.

She was afraid that no matter whether Yu Zhiyan lived or died today, the Empress Dowager Ming'er and General Gu would not spare her life.

She hurriedly ran to the queen mother's bedroom, and at this time the house was also in a mess, and the queen mother and the emperor were awakened from their sleep, and the little emperor seemed to be frightened and kept crying.

As soon as he cried, Gu Yinglian's heart became more and more irritable, and she reached out and slapped his sadness twice, "You kid, what are you crying about, look at you like this, where do you look like the king of a country." ”

Ling Ning saw that before he could speak, there was already such a commotion in the house. I had to stand at the door for a long time before I lifted the splendid curtain and went in.

"The Queen Mother, the general's wife has already seen blood, I'm afraid that this son will be born."

Hearing this, Gu Yinglian hurriedly stood up and glanced at the little emperor who was holding back her tears, "How can you not dare to be coincidental like this, what a sinful obstacle, it will not be possible to hide in the mother's womb for a few days." ”

Wang Ken said hurriedly: "You have already arranged this midwife, so please go and invite it." ”

When Wang Ken left in a hurry, she only asked the palace maid to carry the little emperor to the courtyard where Yu Zheyan went. Originally, it was inconvenient to take the little emperor with him, but now that the battle situation outside is unknown, he really can't take care of both sides.

However, before the two of them got out of the courtyard, a few arrows shot over, although Gu Yinglian dodged, but a small palace maid behind her was shot in the heart and fell to the ground without breath.

The little emperor was so frightened that his face was pale, and his crying stopped, and his big eyes were open, and he looked like he was choked with fright.

Gu Yinglian saw that a guard ran past her at this time, and hurriedly stopped him, "Is it that the rebels have entered the city?" ”

Her voice was full of fear, and she didn't dare to think about what she would do if the rebels entered the city.

"Back to the Empress Dowager's words, it is someone in Luoyang City who rebelled, but a few hundred people have been killed." The guard was in such a hurry that he did not salute.

Hearing such a return, the Queen Mother breathed a deep sigh of relief.

When she was in a hurry to feel Yu Zhiyan's room, she saw that Yu Zhiyan had fallen to the ground, with a painful look on her face.

She hurriedly ordered someone to carry Yu Zhiyan to the bed, and stared for a while but did not see Wang Ken bring the midwife back, and immediately became angry and annoyed, and only scolded Wang Ken for being a useless thing.

The Queen Mother was turning around in a hurry at the door, but when she saw Wang Ken coming back alone, she hurriedly scolded: "What about people? Why haven't you found the mourning family yet? ”

Wang Ken was angry and hateful, "Back to the Queen Mother's words, this is too chaotic in the house, I'm afraid that I will run away when I see this." ”

Gu Yinglian glanced back, and it seemed that she could still feel Yu Zhiyan's pain at this time through the screen, and hurriedly said: "Then look at the Taishou Mansion, which one will deliver the baby, just bring it over." ”

Wang Ken took the order and left in a hurry, but after half a pillar of incense, he came back in a hurry, followed by a middle-aged woman.

The man seemed to be a servant at home, dressed in coarse cloth clothes, and even when he saw the Queen Mother, he was trembling, and he couldn't even say a decent word.

Before Gu Yinglian could reply, she pointed at her and said, "Are you a midwife?" ”

The woman's face turned pale with fright, and she hurriedly said, "When the slave and maid used to deliver cattle and sheep in their hometown, they used to deliver cattle and sheepβ€”"

Hearing this, Gu Yinglian angrily picked up the teacup in her hand and smashed it on Wang Ken's body, "What time is it, you are still joking with the mourning family, she gave birth to the heir of my Gu family, you actually found such a person to deliver the baby." ”

Wang Ken was hit the arm, and he hugged his mother with a bang, and the pain was sweating profusely.

"Queen Mother, there is no way for this slave, now there is too chaos in Luoyang City, and now it is so urgent, where do you let the slave find someone?"

Gu Yinglian didn't want Yu Zhiyan to be in a hurry like this, and she didn't know what to do for a while, so she could only be a dead horse doctor.

However, time did not allow her to hesitate any longer, but she heard a palace maid in the house shouting in fear: "Queen Mother, you can see the child's head. ”

Gu Yinglian had no choice but to say to the woman: "Don't go in quickly, if the mother and son are safe, the mourning family will give you a good harvest." ”

However, after the woman went in for a long time, there was no movement, only the palace maid brought out a basin of shocking blood.

At this time, there was chaos outside, Gu Yinglian was in a hurry to turn around, but saw a soldier hurriedly come in to report, "Queen Mother, General Gu can't hold it anymoreβ€”β€”"

Gu Yinglian took a step back and fell heavily to the ground.

Wang Ken stood beside her and didn't help, because everyone was stunned. If the rebels come in, will their lives be saved?

Seeing that the Queen Mother was so embarrassed, Wang Ken hurriedly helped her up.

Only then did the Queen Mother look at the soldier and asked tremblingly, "Is Gu Jue okay?" ”

"He was fighting on the city walls and was wounded." The guard hurriedly replied, "General Gu said that he swore to guard the city wall. ”

Gu Yinglian listened to the painful shouts of Yu Zhiyan in the house, and finally said to the soldiers. "Go and tell Gu Jue that he will come back no matter what, even if it is the last time he sees his wife and children."

This is a contest of great disparity, how can Luoyang City, which was already discouraged, withstand the fierce offensive of the rebels.

The rebels had set up ladders and had already climbed up. The guards cut off their heads and kicked them off the walls.

And the bloody head did not frighten the people on the ladder who forgot about life and death, and still roared and rushed up.

Soon the fireball of arrows shot up, and the walls burned to the ground.

In this Luoyang City, known as the land of abundance, the fire devoured everything without scruples, blood stains and wreckage everywhere, and the pathos of blood slaughter everywhere.

The fire reflected Gu Jue's face and the silver armor on his body.

He was red-eyed, but he saw the phoenix being supported in the distance, and in the blazing flames with his clothes, he was still dressed in white in the bloody slaughterhouse.

He was far away, as if he was watching the battle, and the arrows that fell from the walls did not reach him at all.

Looking at his spotless appearance, Gu Jue, who was covered in blood, looked like a demon who had just crawled out of hell.

Gu Jue ordered his subordinates to bring his treasure bow, but in a moment, four strong men brought up a bow and arrow weighing dozens of catties with mountain mulberry as the body, sandalwood as the bow, and silver wire as the string.

He immediately drew his bow and slowly aimed at the Fenghuang under the city.

Just when the iron arrow passed through the fighting crowd and shot only at Feng Huang's head. Feng Huang seemed to sense the sudden cold wind, and only turned his face away.

A chilling arrow passed through his cheek, breaking a strand of black hair from his sideburns, and then strung several guards behind him like a string of sugar gourds, bloody and terrifying.

The guards around him were busy supporters, and he took a few steps back, and they were all scared into a cold sweat, and if he hadn't dodged it sideways, his head would have been poked into a transparent hole.

And Feng Huang didn't have any expression on his face because of this fright, he just raised his head and looked at Gu Jue, who was still holding a heavy bow and arrow.

When Gu Jue saw that he had escaped, he was so angry that he gritted his teeth, and he just wanted to come down and fight with him.

And at this moment, the guard he sent to report the news just now came back in a hurry, and when he saw Gu Jue, he hurriedly said loudly: "General Gu, the Queen Mother invites you over." ”

Gu Jue, who was killing the red-eyed Gu Jue, was willing to be obedient, Mo said that it was the order of the Queen Mother, it was the Emperor Laozi, and he might not be willing to listen to it.

Gu Jue cut off the head of a rebel, and then said viciously: "Get outβ€”"

The guard felt that Gu Jue at this time was even more terrifying than those rebels under the city, so he only hurriedly said: "The general's wife is about to give birth this time, and the queen mother asked you to meet their mother and son." ”

Gu Jue, who was about to defend the city gate to the death, was stunned for a moment, and several sharp arrows flew past him, and he didn't hide.

Yes, he should go to see Yu Zhiyan, he won't survive today, but he hasn't even said goodbye to her.

She still remembered the nervous look on her face when she was leaving, but now she was a little ashamed of her, he once swore that he would protect her for the rest of her life, but he didn't expect that he couldn't even defend this Luoyang City for her today.

He still went down the castle tower, and a thousand of his cronies followed him to the Taishou Mansion.

There was already chaos in the Taishou Mansion, and even the Taishou collected the money in the mansion and wanted to run away. The soldiers of Luoyang City were still fighting bloodily, but he wanted to run away, how could Gu Jue spare him.

Gu Jue was really furious when he saw this, and only asked his subordinates to kill him immediately.

When he walked to the courtyard where Yu Zhiyan was located, he saw Gu Yinglian sitting on the threshold with her head down, and when he saw her coming, he hurriedly ran over.

"Dong Lang, the midwife said that she had a difficult birth, and she couldn't be saved, and now there is still a breath of air, so you can talk to her."

Gu Yinglian's voice was full of helplessness, if she had a difficult birth in the palace, she could find the best midwife in the world for her, but now here, she couldn't do anything.

Hearing this, Gu Jue seemed to be deaf in both ears for a moment, and only looked at the Queen Mother's lips constantly moving, but he couldn't hear any loud sounds.

However, what Gu Yinglian said didn't matter to him anymore, he crossed Gu Yinglian and walked straight to the house.

Those who had been shaking their heads in front of the bed saw him coming, and they hurriedly got out of the way.

Looking at the figure on the bed, Gu Jue's heart was constantly struck by a blunt knife, only cutting him to blood, and he was in pain.

Anyway, he walked over and lifted the thin veil. But I saw Yu Zhiyan, who was lying on the bed and experiencing the pain of childbirth, and the green silk on his head had been soaked with sweat.

She shouted something in pain, although it was a little indistinct, but when he listened attentively, he realized that she had been calling her name.

Gu Jue walked over, slowly sat on the edge of her bed, and clenched her hand tightly with his cold hand, "Zhiyan, I'm here, don't be afraid." ”

"It hurts, Donglang-" Hearing his voice, Yu Zhiyan slowly opened his eyes, and a tear ran down the corner of his eye and slowly fell on the pillow, "I'm really incompetent, I can't let you look at this child in my life." ”

The breath of Yu Zhiyan seemed to be nothing, as if the breath could be broken at any time. Looking at her painful appearance, Gu Jue couldn't say anything to make her exert herself, as if only death could she get rid of this boundless pain.

"Don't say any more." His helmet was crooked, and his hair hung down disheveled, "Please don't say any more." ”

Yu Zhiyan seemed to have forgotten the shattering pain coming from her body, she reached out and slowly stroked Gu Jue's cheek, his face was much thinner than before.

"Donglang, I love you, the kind of love that I can't wait to have you for the rest of my life." The last ounce of strength in her hand seemed to be drained, and the hand that rubbed against his cheek fell the bed.

Yu Zhiyan never said a word that she loved him, but she didn't expect her to say it at this time, as if it was a farewell word, and if she didn't say it, it would be too late.

He dragged her cold body and tied his head tightly around her neck, "Then you will accompany me in peace, otherwise I will never remember you as an ugly girl with three wives and four concubines in the future." ”

At this farewell moment, Gu Yinglian hurriedly walked in with the little emperor Hao'er, and said hurriedly: "Donglang, the rebels have broken through the city gate, and they will soon break into the Taishou Mansion, you hurry up and take Hao'er to leave here while the chaos is in chaos." ”

Gu Jue still hugged Yu Zhiyan's body tightly, tears dripping down her cold face, "I'll take you with me." ”

"I can't go with Oriyan." Gu Yinglian's face was full of urgency, "I killed Feng Huang's parents and forced him to my side.

How could he let me go so easily? And this girl can't stay up for long, so you better let her go quietly. ”

Gu Jue was unwilling to abandon him no matter what, the two women he cared about the most in this world would rather fight to the death with Feng Huang than abandon them.

And at this moment, Gu Yinglian took out the jade seal of the country from her cuffs, and then held it and knelt down in front of Gu Jue with a "plop".

"Dong Lang, in the future, Hao'er's great cause of recovering the country will be in your hands. In the future, you will support him and help him get back what he has lost. Gu Yinglian's face was pleading.

Seeing that his own sister actually knelt in front of him, asking for a way to survive for this ignorant little emperor, how could he not be moved.

Yu Zhiyan knew that this might be the only reason for him to live.

"Donglang, let's go, even for me in the future, I will have to live a good life." Her voice gradually weakened, "Besides, the child in my belly is a phoenix, he will not treat me badly, and he will definitely bury me alive, don't worry." ”

Hearing Yu Zhiyan's words, Gu Yinglian held the hand of the jade seal and trembled slightly.

The sound of the fight outside turned out to be getting closer and closer, and seeing that it was about to be too late, Gu Yinglian hurriedly stuffed the jade seal in his hand into his hand, and then stuffed the crying little emperor to Gu Jue.

The hand that was pulling his sleeve slowly drooped down, and he immediately screamed bitterly, tearing out his heart as misery: "Folding smoke." ”

All that answered him was the silence of Yu Zhiyan, and the fainter and fainter sound of breathing.

Gu Jue still turned around and left, and took the cronies who followed him into the Taishou Mansion, all of whom changed into the clothes of the people, and disappeared without a trace when the city was in turmoil.

After he left, Gu Yinglian walked to Yu Zhiyan's side, and tentatively touched her snort with her hand, and there was still a faint sound of breathing.

She didn't know if she could hear what she said, so she only sighed: "Why are you lying to Dong Lang, this kid can't be sealed at all." ”

Seeing that she still didn't move, she smiled bitterly, "I tried my best to let Feng Huang stay by my side, but I am the queen mother." I was also afraid that I would be pregnant and be laughed at by the world, so I ordered Sun Xi to go to the little man outside the palace to find a secret medicine. ”

After she finished speaking, she called Wang Ken, who had been waiting outside the door, in, and ordered her to pick up the oil and fire folds.

Wang Ken was really a capable person, and soon came over with a slow wooden barrel.

Gu Yinglian sat on the chair and drank tea indifferently, but her fingertips knocked on the table intentionally or unintentionally.

She ordered Wang Ken to pour those fire oil on the ground, and now those palace people saw that the situation was not good, and they had already escaped, and this matter could only be reduced to his own hands.

Wang Ken's work was quite neat, and it didn't take long for him to pour the oil well.

Gu Yinglian saw that everyone had searched for it, only he was so filial to himself, she couldn't help but be moved, she didn't expect that this rootless thing was really sincere to her, and it was no wonder that she promoted him with her own hands.

"You should run for your life, Wang Ken." She finally pretended to be relaxed and said, "You are also uncultivated, and you are a desperate person like me." ”

Although Wang Ken is treacherous, he is also sincerely serving the Queen Mother, and now although she drives him away, he is reluctant to do so anyway.

"Queen Mother, let the servants stay by your side and serve you." He pleaded bitterly, "The slave entered the palace at the age of fourteen, and now he is sixty-three years old, and the clansmen in the family have no news, where do you let the slave go?" ”

The Queen Mother said angrily: "Don't get out of here, the world is so big, is there no place for you to live?" ”

Wang Ken still cried a handful of snot and left with tears, and the room suddenly became quiet.

And at this moment, Feng Huang came here with his subordinates.
