Volume 7 Chapter 2
Chapter 2 is a sloppy shot
The faces of these people carried the greed and desire that Su Mi was familiar with, and the eyes of the soldiers quickly swept over the courtyard, while shouting, "Is there anyone? Give it all to Lao Tzu! "He will come into the house.
Qi Hao and Su Mi glanced at each other, and immediately lowered their heads and walked out.
Seeing that there were three ordinary-looking little eunuchs coming out of the room, the faces of the Liao soldiers could not hide their annoyance and disappointment.
"Get out of here, bunnies! Don't get in the way, be careful that the master slaughters you! A soldier casually slashed the knife in his hand at Xiao Luzi, who was closest to him, Xiao Luzi hurriedly dodged to the side, but couldn't dodge, Qi Hao pulled behind him, and then flashed to the side in time, but fell to the ground because of his unstable footing.
Several soldiers laughed, but did not pursue, and all scrambled into the house one by one.
Immediately, there were clear exclamations and inhalations in the room. Although Su Mi's palace is not big, it has been favored for a long time, and Qi Long's rewards are all treasures from various countries, even if she doesn't like luxurious furnishings, the furnishings in the room are far better than ordinary palace concubines.
There was the sound of rummaging through the cabinets, mixed with cheers and laughter, the sound of knives and axes smashing into wood, and even the sound of a few soldiers arguing and scolding over their belongings.
Su Mi didn't value these things originally, but Xiao Luzi showed an indignant look on the side.
"Where is the woman who originally lived in this palace? Why are you little kings and eight lambs here? "After nearly half an hour of plundering and noisy, a dozen robbers came out dressed in gold and silver, and returned with a full load. After searching around for a while, he shouted to the three people who were still standing in front of the door.
"Master Jun, they've all run away, they've all run away a long time ago......" Xiao Luzi replied with a wince.
"Where did you go......?" the soldiers had not finished asking, when they heard a woman's terrible scream outside.
"Oh no, they all ran to other palaces! Hurry up! I went late and didn't even have a share of soup. A soldier shouted. More than a dozen people immediately rushed out like vicious dogs smelling the smell of meat. More anxious and greedy than when he rushed in. In a few moments, they rushed out.
Looking at the distant figure of this group of soldiers, Su Mi sighed lightly. She knew that such a loot was just a small prelude, and what awaited the Great Qi court would be even darker and more cruel.
She walked slowly into her bedroom, which was already a mess. The ebony corner screen was pushed to the ground, half-pressed against the crooked rosewood gold-clad table. The dressing table of fragrant pear wood had been split by a sword, and the exquisite gold and silver jewelry inside had long been swept away, and the cabinets in the corners of the walls had been turned over. It's empty. The pale green silk curtain embroidered with silver magnolia patterns was torn off, the golden tassels swayed to the ground, and the white futon had dirty footprints that had been trampled on.
The white jade rouge box carved with lotus patterns was broken into several pieces, and the vivid red was sprinkled on the ground, and the cloisonné vase with the flowers that had just been folded was overturned on the ground, and the clear water flowed out inside, scattering the rouge next to it, making the blood-like vividness spread on the carved jade bricks on the ground. With a poignant fragrance.
After this looting, the Caiwei Palace was like being swept over the flowers and trees by the wind, and the originally elegant and delicate petals were swept away, leaving the stumps and leaves hanging sporadically on the branches.
Only the lingering aroma in the air lingers on the tip of the nose......
"This group of dog thieves ......" Xiao Luzi was so angry that he couldn't speak clearly.
Su Mi looked at everything in front of her in a daze, something in her heart was slowly overlapping, and she seemed to be back in that nightmare again. The same familiar scene drowned her in the pile. It was like an omnipresent giant net, firmly trapping her, unable to break free.
The screams and cries of women faintly came from outside, like a blunt knife, constantly cutting her heart. A pain burst from deep in her chest, almost driving her into madness.
Everything in front of me is the same as it was back then.
Why does such a cruel scene keep repeating itself in front of her? left her at a loss and had no way to escape......
She wanted to scream, she wanted to hold her head and cry, she had enough of what she saw. Unconsciously. Her breath was short.
When I was in a trance. Suddenly, a hand was placed on her shoulder, and the scorching heat passed through the skin where it touched.
Su Mi was suddenly awakened from his imagination. She turned her head, it was Qi Hao who was putting his hand on her shoulder, but his people didn't look at her, he was turning his head to Xiao Luzi, and smiled in a nonchalant tone: "Xiao Luzi, do you have anything to eat?" Go get something to eat, I'm hungry. ”
To say such an inappropriate thing at such a time! Xiao Luzi listened to this order with a sluggish look, and only reacted in half a voice, "Ah, by the way, there are snacks in front, it shouldn't have been ruined by this group of barbarians, I'll go get it." With that, he ran out.
When Xiao Luzi's figure walked away, Qi Hao turned his head to Su Mi and sighed softly: "Don't be distracted, you should have seen such a scene a long time ago, aren't you used to it?" ”
"How can anyone get used to such a thing?" Su Mi's tone instantly rose. His words just now stung her deeply, she thought she was used to it, she thought she could be indifferent, but the ruthless reality made her realize that the strength accumulated over the years was nothing more than a thin layer of porcelain, which could be shattered by a slight blow.
Maybe there are some things that you can't get used to, no matter what, just as there are some things that you can't forget, no matter what.
Qi Hao was surprised by her reaction, he looked at her with blazing eyes, Su Mi looked at him without showing weakness, Qi Hao suddenly smiled and said, "I originally thought that you were very happy to see this court become like this." ”
As if he had been pricked by a needle, Su Mi shook off his hand violently. Her voice turned cold: "What about you? Why didn't you leave me and go by yourself just now, is there anything else in the world that you can't let go? She herself couldn't describe her feelings, and she couldn't help but blurt out hurtful words.
Maybe it was because she suddenly found that when all this killing and blood, naked in front of her, whether it was the enemy's land or her own. It's all the same hopeless and unbearable.
Hearing Su Mi mention what happened just now, a trace of strangeness flashed in Qi Hao's eyes. For a moment, it made people feel like they were hurt, but in just a blink of an eye, he had returned to his usual elegant and self-contained appearance, and then said calmly: "I will never leave my allies behind." ”
"Allies?! Now that the Wang family is afraid that the clan will be wiped out soon, what is the need for us to cooperate? Su Mi said sarcastically.
Hearing this more provocative and harsh words, Qi Hao's tone relaxed, and he could see it. She was just desperate to find an outlet to let the dullness that had been suppressed in her heart burst out. A faint smile appeared in his eyes, and she rarely had such a gaffe: "The Wang family is no longer useful, but I'm afraid we are going to have a new opponent again." ”
Su Mi lowered her head and did not speak.
Qi Hao looked at her, his eyes seemed to be pity, apology, or something else, and hesitated for a while. He said softly, "I'm sorry, I lost my words just now." ”
I didn't expect this man to apologize so quickly, Su Mi looked up at him in a little surprise. At this time, Qi Hao's eyes had returned to calm and calm. Meeting Su Mi's inquiring eyes, the corners of his mouth lifted, and he changed the topic with a smile: "I've been in the city since yesterday. I don't even have time to eat. ”
Su Mi lowered her head, she knew that she had lost her temper just now, nodded and asked, "What should we do next?" ”
A quarrel is invisible.
"This ...... Let's wait for Xiao Luzi to bring something to eat. Qi Hao's smile was still so indifferent: "I'm afraid I still have the strength to do next." ”
Su Mi glared at him angrily, and couldn't help but smile: "Speaking of serious things, when is it now, you still want to eat." Being stirred up by Qi Hao like this, her mood calmed down, and she was not in the mood to sink into the memories of the past.
After discussing the matter, Qi Hao's tone also became solemn: "I know, what we need to have a headache now is how to survive in these few days." And find a chance to escape. ”
"A few eunuchs shouldn't attract the attention of the Liao. As long as we find the right time, we can contact people outside the palace......," Su Mi said. She was going to take advantage of the unpreparedness of the Liao army to find and contact Ge Chengming to arrange an internal line in the palace. Most of these people were rough and miscellaneous eunuchs, in their capacity. It shouldn't attract the attention of others. It's just that in the chaos of the army, it must be difficult to contact and find, but fortunately, there is Qi Hao now. Moreover, Qi Hao arranged a lot of internal lines in the palace.
"No, it's too slow, not to mention that they can't protect themselves now. Qi Hao sighed and said: "Now the Liao people are busy robbing women's wealth and silk, and they can't take care of us." Once the situation stabilizes, we will soon start dealing with the miscellaneous servants and inner prisoners in the palace, and maybe kill everyone. Therefore, if we want to leave, we must do it as soon as possible, while the Liao people are not familiar with the court......"
"Killed? How could such a brutal thing be done? Su Mi couldn't help but retort. Although there are many people in the inner prison, it does not endanger them.
"It's not brutal," Qi Hao shook his head and said, "It's just that the means of survival are different." We Han people all say that Liao people are thirsty for killing, in fact, we should not say that they are thirsty for killing, the grassland of Liao is barren, bitter cold land, they have never had extra food, when winter comes, often break out civil strife, loot food, in order to survive. In their habits, such useless people cannot keep and consume precious food. Especially the remaining half of the ......" Qi Hao didn't say anything, Su Mi naturally knew, especially when the grain in the capital was burned down by someone who didn't know it.
"Then you don't have to kill them, just expel them from the court. Su Mi retorted. Even when the Qi State attacked the Wei Kingdom, the eunuchs in the Wei Palace were just driven out of the palace and left to fend for themselves. If this is the case, it would be the best, and they would be able to escape from the palace without any effort.
"This time the war is different from the past, if the Great Qi has been wiped out by the Liao, or the Liao people just make up their minds to loot and retreat, naturally they will not waste their efforts on these useless people, but this time it ......" Qi Hao smiled bitterly: "I am afraid that it will take a long time for the Liao people to occupy the city, and it will not be possible to expand the results of the war in the short term. ”
"And now that the grain and grass hoarded in the capital have been burned by people, the supply of food will inevitably be more difficult......," Qi Hao said, and couldn't help but have a worried face. This battle is probably unimaginably difficult. Could it be that Daqi is really going to perish like this, and the world will repeat the situation of the heroes competing for the deer and the invasion of the Hu people? The two sighed silently.
While the two were talking, Xiao Luzi walked in with a snack. Knowing that the next days might not be easy, Su Mi reluctantly ate a few pieces of it by herself.
Later, several groups of Liao people rushed in with the intention of looting, and even the gold rim wrapped around the edge of the rosewood table was pried down by those soldiers and taken into their arms.
Su Mi and the three stayed quietly in the corner, but there was no trouble for the Liao people to come to them. Until it was almost you, there was a heavy and chaotic footstep at the palace gate, and the Liao army shouted loudly outside, "The king has an order, all the people of the Qi Palace will gather outside the palace gate, and those who hide without permission will be killed!" ”
Qi Hao and Su Mi walked out of the palace gate with Xiao Luzi, it seems that the Liao army is ready to count the prisoners, and there is already a large group of palace people outside the gate who are being driven forward by a team of Liao troops, and at the same time collecting the idle prisoners of the palace on the road. Su Mi and the three of them quietly joined in. . .
