Chapter 79: Is This Deception?
The second more
The next morning, Qingyu wore armor and accompanied Xianfeng with her children in the same attire. Xianfeng didn't wear this, he didn't need it, he sat on it, looked sideways at his wife and children, and when his eyes stayed on his son, he laughed.
The armor is custom-made and fits perfectly. But Xiao Xixi is a little fat, wearing that, he will involuntarily hold his breath, and his little face will turn red, so the small belly seems to float a little big, which makes people pay more attention to his belly. Even if Xixi's face is solemn, it still makes people laugh.
Little Sissi was depressed when she saw her father like this. He took a deep breath, stepped forward, touched the ground on one knee, and shouted in his loudest roar, "Erchen swears to defend the capital to the death!" ”
Rong An rolled his eyes, this idiot, this sentence has to wait for his father to open his mouth before saying it, who made him say this? However, her younger brother was out of the ranks, and she could only step forward and stand side by side with her younger brother, "Although Erchen is a woman, she doesn't dare to hide behind the people, and Erchen is willing to cheer for the soldiers with the emperor." ”
"Alas, okay, there was originally a lot to say, but I and the queen have confidence in ourselves and in the generals, so I won't leave with my wife and children, my children are so cute, I won't let them die!"
Xianfeng got up and pulled Qingyu with one hand, handed it to Rong An with the other, and Qingyu gave it to Xiao Xixi. The four of them stood in a row and walked towards the imperial city outside the Taihe Palace. Qingyu remembered something and pulled Xianfeng. Xianfeng smiled at her and motioned for her to come. Qingyu was moved, but shook her head and let him speak.
"The queen mother knows that all the ministers will advance and retreat together with me, but in order to reassure the ministers, she asks me that you can send a son out of Beijing. If you have no children, you can also send your parents and wife! Xianfeng still put the credit on Qingyu.
"Your Majesty, the slave wife is outside the palace gate, I don't know if I can have the honor to go to the city wall with the emperor and Niangniang." Chery is out of the ranks.
"Are you going to send your mother away?" Qingyu looked at Chery, except for Jian Dong'er, the most important person to him was Mrs. Jueluo. Now that Jian Dong'er doesn't leave, then it will be Mrs. Jueluo who will go.
"No, the minister is the same as the emperor, he doesn't believe that we will lose!" Chery said loudly.
"One piece!" Xianfeng smiled, and the family of four still walked forward slowly, and Chery asked people to ask Mrs. to follow behind. Yiren and Li Hongzhang followed together. The others looked ahead, struggled for a moment, and followed up to the city wall.
Some of the people in the capital have gathered in the square outside the gate, and they have heard that the emperor is going to read the book to the people on the city gate tower today, so those people who can get away from the city gathered downstairs in the city, not caring what the old man is listening to, but to see the emperor, what the mother looks like.
Xiao Xixi and Rong An both stood on a specially erected platform on the city wall, Xiao Xixi's lively temperament saw that there were people below, jumped happily, and waved to the people below, but he was wearing armor, and he didn't have the strength to jump twice. And I couldn't lift my hands, and all of a sudden, I was sweating like rain.
Rong An is much more steady, she had already heard her parents explain last night. What my parents said was completely different from what they said to the courtiers in the morning. They are actually not sure what the outcome will be, but they are royal, they can't leave, if they leave at this time, it will hit morale, and your emperor himself doesn't believe that he can win, so how to make the people and soldiers in the world believe that they can win. Whether they win or lose, they don't have the face to come back.
Rong An didn't know if Xiao Xixi understood it, but she did. This is the responsibility of the royal family. Of course, when they looked back, their parents sighed softly, maybe it was selfishness, even if they died, they would not dare to give them to others.
Rong An understood what this sentence meant, it might be okay for her to be a daughter, after all, she had no inheritance, but if Xiao Xixi left the protection of her parents, she didn't dare to think about what the result would be. So when she returned to her biological mother's palace, she looked at her biological mother, and if she wanted to leave, she begged her father to send her away quickly.
Concubine Li hugged her tightly and only asked her if she would leave. Concubine Li wanted to stay by herself, but asked the emperor to send Rong An away. Even though he knew that he must not leave, he still cried when he saw his biological mother like this.
In the morning, she came to greet her parents, and their parents put on the armor of Little Xixi. Seeing her coming, he hurriedly took out the ones he made for her.
Rong An looked at Qingyu, she had no sleep all night, she was thinking about the difference between her biological mother and her grandmother. At this time of life and death, the biological mother wanted to exchange her life for her own safety. But why didn't my father and grandmother allow me to leave? Even if she understood her father's and mother's thoughts, she still couldn't help but think that in the hearts of her father and mother, imperial power was actually above all else?
But she didn't say this, she just obediently put on her armor and followed her parents and younger brother to the palace together, and then at this time it was the people of the capital who were facing her. She is here to express her parents' determination to fight to the end.
Under the city wall, she saw many children like her younger brother, and her father's letter to the people was to let them accompany him to defend the capital together? Is it difficult to turn back, he wants to be like Chongzhen of the former Ming Dynasty, hack his wife and children to death with a sword, and then hang himself on the coal mountain?
Rong An's ears were full of the cheers of all the people, and there was a father shouting to the people at a big iron horn, she didn't know what her father said, but she just followed everyone and knelt down to her father together.
Finally, her father's letter to the people ended, and her father took her hand and waved it to the people, and she smiled at the people below. Perhaps the subjects below could not see her face clearly in the helmet, and there was only blind cheering below. Rong An had an urge to rush down and ask everyone, did they know what they were cheering for? But she was still moved by them, but a little disappointed for her parents. They're cheating, aren't they?
Just thinking about it, a huge thrust, and then the father found out something and immediately pressed himself. And she saw again that her mother was pushing her father, and they all pounced on her, and the three of them fell on the stage together.
There was no one else in Qingyu's eyes, and at this time, under the city wall, there was chaos. And she just stretched out her hands to her husband and daughter, "How is it, does it hurt?" ”
Before Rong An could come back to his senses, he found himself on the ground, and his parents protected him together.
"What's ......" Rong An was about to speak, but saw that the stage was already in chaos, and an old minister behind them had fallen in blood, a bloody hole in his eyebrows, and dark red blood was gushing out. She knew at once what was going on, and her mother must have found out something, so she pushed them away desperately.
"Are you all alright?" Qingyu is still looking at her husband and daughter.
"Eniang, what's wrong with you?" Xiao Xixi didn't figure out the situation either, so she came over. And Rong An immediately covered his eyes.
