Chapter 236: Only the Emperor Can Save His Life!
And when Lin Yiqiu was worried, after noon, the army sent by the eldest princess finally arrived in the villages and counties around ten miles around.
Regardless of whether they asked, the column army directly grabbed food, and as for those people, most of them died under their butcher's knives.
Originally, Gu Jinglan and Tang Zhaoyi were also facing such a threat.
But the army sent by Lin Yiqiu to protect them before played a role at a critical moment.
Half an hour before the enemy arrived, he had already fled with two people and some people from Yongan County.
And most of them moved to the jungle where Gu Jinglan and Tang Zhaoyi passed before.
"Who the hell are those guys?"
In the woods, Gu Jinglan had palpitations.
Before leaving, she saw an army frantically rushing into the local villages, regardless of the slaughter, and snatching all the food!
Tang Zhaoyi, as a concubine in the palace, still knows a lot about many things.
Especially the clothes worn by those soldiers, she knows better.
After a while, she said in a deep voice: "I think they all look like our army." ”
"Our own army? How can it be? Why did his family always grab food, and why did they slaughter the people? ”
Gu Jinglan was very puzzled.
At this time, the leader of the guard who was responsible for protecting them next to him said: "Two young ladies, it is indeed true, those people are indeed my soldiers. ”
"But I don't know what's going on at the moment, you wait here for a while, and I'll go and find out."
After speaking, he took a few soldiers and quietly sneaked out of the woods.
Minutes and seconds passed.
In the woods, Gu Jinglan, Tang Zhaoyi and others were still struggling to hide, and the people didn't dare to pant loudly.
I'm afraid those soldiers will suddenly rush into this jungle and kill them too!
After about an hour, the Commander of the Guard finally returned, but his face became extremely ugly!
"What the hell is going on? Check it out? ”
Tang Zhaoyi hurriedly asked.
The commander of the guard was still in disbelief, and it took a while for him to speak dumbly.
"It's like... It seems to be the eldest princess... She's rebelled! ”
"What? Princess Celestia rebelled? ”
Gu Jinglan was the first to exclaim.
Fortunately, Tang Zhaoyi covered her mouth and didn't let her voice continue to amplify.
However, her own expression has become incredulous!
"How is this possible? Isn't Celestia guarding the frontier? How did it end up here? How can they rebel? ”
"She is the emperor's son, how can she do such a thing?"
Tang Zhaoyi really couldn't imagine it.
The Commander of the Guard thinks the same thing as him.
But he saw it with his own eyes and had to believe it!
"Niangniang, I saw with my own eyes that the eldest princess was just outside Shiye City, launching a crazy attack on the city!"
"Lord Lin, Commander Cang, is now trapped in Shiye City, and he is strictly guarded!"
"Celestial Princess, this is definitely a rebellion! The soldiers who killed the people and robbed them of food! It's her men! ”
After finishing speaking, Gu Jinglan and Tang Zhaoyi only had three words to describe in their hearts!
Oh, my God!
The news almost shook their heads.
"Lin Yiqiu, what happened to them? Are there any dangers? ”
After a moment, both women asked at the same time.
What they are most concerned about at this time is naturally Lin Yiqiu's safety.
The Captain of the Guard sighed.
"For the time being, the eldest princess can't attack it, so there shouldn't be a big danger, but over time, I'm not sure what will happen to Shiye City!"
"Miss Gu, Niangniang! Now 100,000 are in a hurry! I must escort you back to the capital! ”
"Back to the capital? Lin Yiqiu is in danger now, how can we leave him alone? ”
The two women vetoed almost simultaneously.
They are not ruthless and unrighteous people, besides, they were all rescued by Lin Yiqiu, and now Lin Yiqiu is in trouble, how can he escape.
But the Commander of the Guard can't do that much!
"Two, if you continue to stay here, there is no other way to help Lord Lin and Commander Cang!"
"The best way now is to go back to Beijing immediately and report this matter to the emperor!"
"Only the emperor can resolve this crisis, and can save Lord Lin and Cang Commander to lead them! If the two of you still hesitate, when a soldier searches here, it will be too late! ”
It's the truth! And the best way to do it at the moment!
Xia Qingwu blocked all the main roads around Shiye City, and it was impossible for Shiye City to spread the news!
I'm afraid that when Shiye City is completely destroyed, the emperor still doesn't know anything about it.
But fortunately, Lin Yiqiu had arranged Gu Jinglan and Tang Zhaoyi in Yong'an County before.
Moreover, a special guard was sent to protect the two of them!
Now only they can quickly report the matter of Shiye City to the emperor, and then let the emperor deal with it!
After listening, Gu Jinglan and Tang Zhaoyi thought for a moment, and finally nodded.
"You're right, it's useless for us to continue here!"
"This matter must be reported to the emperor as soon as possible, we want to save Lin Yiqiu and them, we can only do this!"
"That's good! I'll escort you back to Beijing now! ”
The Commander of the Guard immediately nodded.
He had about a hundred men under him, half of whom were used to escort the rest of the people to take refuge farther away.
The other half was riding a horse to escort Gu Jinglan and Tang Zhaoyi to the capital.
It was already late in the evening, but they didn't dare to stop!
Dozens of horses, it can be said that they gallop all the way on the trail!
And around Shiye City, looking at the more and more food raised, the corners of Xia Qingwu's mouth also showed a cruel smile.
"Lin Yiqiu, Lin Yiqiu! Now! I'd like to see who's spending more energy than whom! ”
"Pass my orders! Attack the enemy at night! Tomorrow morning! Go ahead and besiege the city! ”
The overbearing order resounded throughout the army!
And above the city gate, Lin Yiqiu's expression did not dare to slack off in the slightest.
After all, this eldest princess is a veteran of the battlefield for many years, and if she makes any mistakes, I am afraid that she will die under the iron hooves of her tens of thousands of troops.
For the sake of today's plan, the news must be spread as soon as possible to let the emperor know about this matter.
Only the emperor can save them! Only the emperor can reverse this situation.
Thinking of this, Lin Yiqiu couldn't help but place more expectations on the guards he had arranged to go out of the city.
"You must escort Gu Jinglan and Tang Zhaoyi back to Beijing! Be sure to tell the emperor about it! ”
And for himself, it is still necessary to hold on!
Anyway, the enemy army can't attack it for the time being, as long as he and Canghong guard the city gate, there will be no danger for the time being!
Two days later!
In the capital, Emperor Qian's dormitory, a shocked shout broke the tranquility of the palace!
"What do you say? Lin Yiqiu was trapped in Shiye City by Xia Qingwu? ”
Emperor Qian looked at Tang Zhaoyi, who was kneeling in front of him, and his expression suddenly changed violently! And the fist is also tightly clenched!
