Chapter 700: Set Fire to People
After the people in the Shannian camp escaped, they smashed the shops and robbed the houses, and the people of Shengjing suffered greatly. The resentment had reached its limit, and the moment finally erupted.
Liu Yunxiang frowned, the matter of the Shannian Camp will be solved immediately, and there must be no recurrence of the incident at this time.
She called Shang Zijin and Zhang Qi, and hurriedly went to Xicheng at the moment.
There were many people with torches in the streets, and they were all in groups of three, five, and their faces were full of resentment. The farther you go to the west city, the more people gather, and when the night darkens, the torches gather together and become a sea of fire.
When they rushed over, the soldiers who had promised to the camp on the outskirts of Beijing stood side by side, with three layers inside and outside, forming a human wall and blocking the people outside. But as more and more people gathered, coupled with emotional anger, there was a small area of pushing.
Liu Yunxiang saw this situation, and with the help of Zhang Qi and Zijin, he squeezed to the front with difficulty, and when he saw that the deputy commander was there, he hurriedly shouted at him.
When Deputy Commander Chang saw Liu Yunxiang, he hurriedly stepped forward and brought the three of her in.
"Princess, it's dangerous here, why are you here?"
Liu Yunxiang glanced out, the human wall had begun to loosen, and the people in the Shannian Camp behind were still sealed inside, if these torches were really thrown in, it would immediately become a furnace, a furnace for the crematories.
"Can the permanent deputy commander receive a decree from the palace?"
"What will?"
Liu Yunxiang pursed his lips, which means that the emperor has not yet given an order. Also, it's getting late, and the emperor estimates that he will give an order tomorrow morning, and he is not in a hurry, but the situation here is indeed critical.
"Your men might hold these people up until tomorrow morning?"
Deputy Commander Chang shook his head, "I'm afraid I can't." ”
"It must be stopped!"
The deputy commander was a little embarrassed: "There is no insistence in the palace, but His Royal Highness has sent someone to spread the word, let us immediately withdraw to the camp outside the city, and our subordinates ......"
Liu Yunxiang frowned, this Qin Shengrui is vicious enough, withdraw his troops at this time, and the emperor's will to let go of the Shannian Camp has not yet come down, not to mention the chaos, there are hundreds of lives here!
As he spoke, several soldiers were dispersed, and a dozen civilians rushed in, holding torches in their hands and burning with anger in their eyes.
"Burn these stinky rats!"
"None of them will be left!"
Fortunately, there was a group of soldiers inside, who rushed over and drove these angry people out. But the people outside were getting more and more excited, and some people were already throwing torches inside, and the scene was about to be uncontrollable.
"Deputy Commander, let's withdraw!" A soldier ran over and wiped his sweat, "If we don't retreat, we will also have casualties!" ”
Deputy Commander Chang took a deep breath, his face was certain, and he turned to make a salute to Liu Yunxiang, he was about to speak, but Liu Yunxiang robbed him of his words.
"Deputy Commander, give me a quarter of an hour."
"What are you going to do?"
"Let me go into the Camp of Good Thoughts."
"No, it's too dangerous!"
Liu Yunxiang shook his head, "There are hundreds of lives inside, we can't help it." ”
"......"
"The emperor has agreed to hand over these people from the Shannian Camp to me for placement, but the holy decree will only be sent tomorrow morning. I know you're embarrassed, but if Your Royal Highness is not your commander, you won't listen to him. ”
In the officialdom, they are all human spirits, Liu Yunxiang represents the Zhenbei Palace, and behind him is the Seventh Highness. Between the Fourth Highness and the Seventh Highness, it is not necessary to have a clan, but it is best not to offend anyone.
Thinking of this, Deputy Commander Chang looked up at Liu Yunxiang, "It's only a quarter of an hour, don't let your subordinates be too difficult." ”
"Good!"
Deputy Commander Chang waved his hand at the subordinates guarding the door in the distance, "Open the small door and let the princess in!" ”
Liu Yunxiang took a deep breath and hurriedly walked inside, Zhang Qi and Zijin followed closely behind.
"Wouldn't it be too risky?" Zhang Qi asked a little uneasily.
"It's a risk."
"Then you are behind me and Zijin, don't show your head."
Liu Yunxiang smiled and patted Zhang Qi on the shoulder, "We're going to save them, it's okay to go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire." ”
As soon as these words fell, Liu Yunxiang walked in from the small door, and before she could see the situation inside, a stone smashed towards her head. Thanks to Zijin's quick skills, he raised his foot and kicked it out.
Liu Yunxiang patted his chest and looked over in shock, but saw that under the night, the black shadow moved, pressing over like a mountain. When the people in the camp on the outskirts of Beijing lit the stoves on both sides, and the people on the other side also approached, she gasped in fright.
These hundreds of people are all holding things, kitchen knives, hoes, iron spoons, and those who really don't have them are holding stones, their eyes are wide open, full of resentment or decisive killing intent, even the four or five-year-old children, as if they also know hatred and despair, clutching the stones in their hands, and following the adults step by step, without flinching.
"Girl!" Seeing this, Zijin hurriedly stretched out his hand to protect Liu Yunxiang, "Let's withdraw, these people are no longer rational!" ”
"Yes, the court doesn't care about them, so let's leave it alone." Zhang Qi said urgently.
Liu Yunxiang frowned, she saw these men and women, old and young, and naturally saw their hands holding kitchen knives and their thin faces.
They are cornered, and they want to live.
Liu Yunxiang bypassed Zijin and walked to the front, shouting at these people: "I am the princess of Zhenbei, I am here to save you!" ”
It was very quiet inside, at least the people walking in front heard it, but they were indifferent and continued to walk forward, the footsteps became heavier and heavier, and the killing intent became stronger and stronger.
Liu Yunxiang couldn't help but take a step back, "I have already entered the palace to meet the saint, and tomorrow's will will come down in the morning, you have a way to live!" ”
Still, no one listened to her.
Liu Yunxiang exhaled, looking at these people, she still didn't want to give up, but ......
"Princess!"
At this time, a girl came out of the crowd, saw Liu Yunxiang, her face was full of surprise, and she threw down the stone in her hand and ran over.
"Princess, you've come to save us!"
This girl was in the diagonal alley before, and she took them in for a while.
After the girl ran over, five more children came out of the crowd and ran towards Liu Yunxiang excitedly.
Liu Yunxiang stroked the child's face, after all, she had raised her for a while, and the flesh on her face was still there, not as thin as others, only the skeleton remained.
"Princess, after we were captured and returned to the Shannian Camp, Tie Dan and they died after eating the steamed buns issued outside. When we saw it with our own eyes, we no longer dared to eat it, but only the dry food you brought us. A child said.
"As long as you eat what they give, you will die, and many of us have died here."
"Adults say that food is poisonous and don't eat it if you don't want to die, but many people still eat it because they are hungry and would rather be a full ghost."
Children, you and I say a word, Liu Yunxiang generally knows the situation, and can only comfort them.
"I am here to save you, do you believe me?"
