Chapter Seventy-Seven: Expulsion

After Empress Wu led the people away, the emperor glanced at Wu Yang and said lightly: "Now you should see clearly, it's not that I don't rescue the East China Sea, it's that the officials and the people don't want to rescue the East China Sea." Although I am the Son of Heaven, I can't go against the will of the people! ”

Wu Yang took Mo Xiaoyu to see Zhang Tao before entering the palace to see the emperor.

If he wants to help Li Xiu's apprentices and save the people of the East China Sea, the first thing he has to do is to report to the emperor and obtain the emperor's support, otherwise he will be separated from the emperor.

Zhao Gou made a bet with him, and he asked Wu Yang to just go and ask for the opinions of the hundred officials and collect the public opinion of Lin'an, "Limited to five days, as long as the hundred officials and the people support the dispatch of troops to rescue the East China Sea, I will immediately send troops!" ”

After meeting Zhang Tao, Wu Yang was detained in the palace by the emperor, his identity was sensitive, and the emperor did not want him to be involved too much.

Although Wu Yang did not leave the palace, the news outside the palace was reported every day, and earlier today, Li Xiu took Mo Xiaoyu to the streets of Lin'an to distribute leaflets, and was expelled by the people of Lin'an.

"You two calamities, ominous people, go back to the East China Sea, and don't bring the war to Lin'an!"

"The East China Sea has been occupied by the Jin State for decades, and it has been fine for decades, and now the Emperor of the Jin State wants to attack us, you are here, who knows what evil intentions are hidden under your face!"

"Get out, get out of Lin'an City! Get out of the Great Song! You are not welcome in Lin'an, and you are not welcome in Da Song! ”

Mo Xiaoyu and Li Xiu were greeted by the people of Lin'an all the way with rotten vegetables, rotten eggs, and dirt, and fled back to the rented courtyard in embarrassment.

As soon as the two arrived at the gate of the courtyard, Mo Xiaoyu was about to push the door, when the courtyard door opened with a "squeak", and the kind landlord threw a big package out: "Let's go, the old man will not rent this yard!" If you look for another place to live, I will pay you back the money for the house. ”

Mo Xiaoyu wanted to step forward to theorize, but the old man, who had always been kind, suddenly changed his face: "Go, go!" You two calamity stars will only bring disaster to Lin'an City! You're not welcome! Come on! ”

Li Xiu silently picked up the package on the ground and put it on his back, he grabbed the apprentice, "Let's go, don't make trouble for Daddy Zhang!" ”

He pulled his apprentice and bowed to Father Zhang, and silently turned around and walked out of the alley.

The alleys of Lin'an City are so deep, you can't see the end at a glance!

The master and apprentice walked silently, and countless heads stretched out on both sides of the alleyway, including old men with gray hair, women with buns, young men, and children who had not yet finished their horns.

They didn't speak, silently followed behind the master and apprentice, and slowly, there were more and more people in Lin'an behind Li Xiu and Mo Xiaoyu.

There is an inexplicable pressure in this kind of silent following, although Mo Xiaoyu has experienced a lot of things these days, he is only a fourteen-year-old boy after all, he raised his eyes and looked at Li Xiu in a panic.

Looking at the apprentice's panicked eyes, Li Xiu took his hand, "Don't be afraid, there is still a master!" ”

Qiu Shiyi came down from Qingliang Mountain, just when he saw this scene, he stretched out his arm to stop Li Xiu's master and apprentice, and shouted at the people of Lin'an in front of him: "What are you doing?" The huge Lin'an City can't accommodate their master and apprentice? You have to drive people away, you have to kill them all! ”

Mo Xiaoyu's eyes were rolling with tears, and he looked up at Qiu Shiyi, this man with a broken arm, this man who was like a black iron tower and had a scar on his face that looked fierce, was the warmest and softest place he could feel in Lin'an City right now.

Looking at the desperate pair of masters and apprentices in front of him, and then looking at the people of Lin'an behind them who were silent and refused to retreat, Qiu Shiyi felt very uncomfortable.

These days, he and the nine brothers in the Zhongyi camp who are more neat and easy are divided into two shifts, and take turns to go to the Han Mansion every day to guard, Li Xiu's master and apprentice in Lin'an City He knows what happened to him, but he can't do anything, except for asking his neighbor Daddy Zhang to take care of the master and apprentice every day, he can no longer do it.

He softened his tone and said to the people of Lin'an in front of him: "What are you doing, big guy?" Their master and apprentice are just poor people who escaped from the butcher's knife of the Jinren, their homes and relatives are gone, where can they go when they leave Lin'an City? ”

A young man in the crowd shouted, "I can't take care of it! It was the Jin people who destroyed his home and killed his relatives, and he wanted to take revenge and go to the Jin people! Why do you bring the evil stunt to Lin'an? We don't welcome people who harbor evil intentions! Lin'an City is not - happy - welcome! ”

Qiu Shiyi used the remaining hand to take Mo Xiaoyu to his side: "Everyone, look at it, he's still a child!" If he hadn't been forced to be helpless, a teenager from whom's family would have begged his father to tell his grandmother on the streets of Lin'an every day, just begging someone to save his relatives! ”

Qiu Shiyi said angrily: "If you fall into the well when you see others suffering, my brothers and I shouldn't be nosy that night in Lin'an City!" ”

The crowd was silent, and after a full half a moment, the people suddenly bowed down deeply and made a big salute to Qiu Shiyi: "Engong, Engong saved Lin'an City, saved us, we should have obeyed Engong's life, but leaving them will only bring disaster to Lin'an City, our net worth and life are tied to Lin'an City, please forgive me for being difficult to obey!" ”

An old man with white hair stepped forward, he bowed deeply to Qiu Eleven and Li Xiu's master and apprentice, and said in a trembling voice: "It's not that I can't save myself when I see death, it's really that the whole court has no determination to go to war at all!" Without the support of the imperial court, the sons of the Great Song Dynasty would only be sent to death in vain when they went to the East China Sea! Lao Han is seventy and four this year, and after crossing to the south, Lao Han's five sons all went to serve in the army, and as a result, all five sons died on the battlefield.

Now that Lao Han's three grandsons are in the army again, if the emperor and Tang Xianggong are really determined to start a war with the Jin State, even if Lao Er's bones are buried and no one is sent to his death, he will do his best to support the imperial court to rescue the East China Sea!

But if you look at the court and Your Majesty, do they have the determination and courage to do so? Engong, Li Yuanwai and Brother Mo, the little old man can only be selfish this time! ”

The old man bowed down, and a snow-white head trembled slightly!

Li Xiu returned the salute to the old man, "Boss, please get up, boss doesn't need to feel guilty!" “

He also gave a deep salute to the people of Lin'an: "Thank you Lin'an for the protection of the elders these days, the big guy is right, the East China Sea is the East China Sea, Lin'an is Lin'an, and there is no reason for the people of Lin'an to bear the suffering of the East China Sea!" Li Xiu took his apprentice out of the city and said goodbye! ”

Li Xiu took his apprentice's hand and strode towards the outside of Lin'an City, and Qiu Shiyi asked loudly behind him, "You just left?" Where are you going? ”

Li Xiuchong waved his hand behind him: "I don't know!" This Great Song can't tolerate our master and apprentice, you can also go to sea, or go back to the East China Sea, and it's a good thing to kill a few more golden dogs, no loss! ”

Qiu Shiyi rushed up and said, "Let's go to the Zhongyi camp first, and then think of a way when Counselor Xie and Lord Xiao Wu leave the palace!" Mr. Zhang might be able to think of a new way! ”
