Chapter 326: Their Purpose Is For Us To Die
Although he is the steward of a Zhuangzi, this Zhuangzi has been abandoned many years ago, and the people here have really not seen a few dignitaries.
Not to mention the emperor!
The steward trembled, and told honestly: "This Zhuangzi belongs to the Wei family, but the harvest is poor, and the Wei family almost doesn't care about it." Today, a noble girl suddenly came and said that she was a friend of the fifth son. Two people, with an unconscious girl. The grass people are short-sighted and do not know them. They didn't tell the grass people what they were going to do, they just told them to prepare the wings. ”
After speaking, he kowtowed: "The grass people really don't know anything!" ”
Dali Siqing asked again: "The county lord of Anning is sick, who is taking care of her?" ”
The steward's wife, Li Po, replied, "It's a slave." The slave didn't know that this was the county lord of Anning, and when she saw that her body was hot, she asked the noble girl if she wanted to ask for a doctor. But she said no. ”
These people have a lowly status, so naturally it is impossible for them to ask about the master's affairs.
Although, these people are not brought by the master!
At this time, Xi Yang suddenly interjected: "So, you five sons didn't come. ”
If you want to tear the Wei family into the water, if there is no Wei family member, this pot will not be easy to settle on the Wei family.
When the time comes, the Wei family only needs to say: This is all done by Ji Xiuxiu, and he has no idea, so he can completely dump the pot.
At most, it will be a name for not making good friends, and it will be punished for it, and it is not a big problem.
"Yes." The steward replied, "Our Zhuangzi, the masters have not been here for many years. ”
Zong Zheng asked, "Then how are you sure that these people must be friends of your fifth son?" ”
Xi Yang raised his eyebrows and looked at him, and said in his heart: This little emperor still has brains!
The man in charge took out a jade plaque, on which was engraved "Wei" on one side and "Wu" on the other.
Under the signal of Zong Zhengxun's eyes, the emperor's henchman eunuch stepped forward to pick it up, and the steward presented the jade pendant and said: "This is the noble girl handed over to the grass people, although the grass people don't know this noble girl, but their master's jade plate still knows." ”
The jade plate was sent to Zong Zhengxun.
The Wei family is his maternal family, can he still recognize the token of the Wei family?
When he saw this jade plate clearly, his face instantly became very gloomy.
Xi Yang seemed to see the claws of the milk wolf sticking out!
Let's just say, what kind of child can Zong Zhengyu teach can be a spring and white snow, and a vulgar green lotus?
Zong Zhengxun pinched the jade plate and said, "Everyone take it away and go back to the capital." ”
All the witnesses of this Zhuangzi must be taken away.
Naturally, Xi Yang will not object.
However, unexpectedly, as soon as they came out of Zhuangzi, they found that Zhuangzi was surrounded by a group of black-clothed people!
While they were interrogating inside, a layer of firewood had been laid out outside the Zhuangzi, and the smell of fire oil was in the air.
And those black-clothed people, the number is not very large, there are only dozens of people, one by one, they are in position, with bows in their hands, and there are fire-lit arrows on them!
"Escort!"
Xiao Qian stepped forward one by one, blocked the little emperor behind him, and ordered: "Second brother, you protect the emperor, even if you die, you can't let the emperor have any mistakes!" ”
Xiao Lian, who has always regarded himself as the second ancestor, was stunned: "Ah? ”
He never imagined that such a difficult task would be entrusted to him!
Besides: "Xiyang ......"
"Shut up!" Xiao Qian had already drawn out his long sword and said, "Hurry up and retreat to the house first!" ”
Xi Yang looked at the situation in front of him, and he was also very clear: "Xiao Lian, listen to your brother." ”
If they continue to go forward, they will be pierced by those arrows, and if they retreat, they will be besieged by fire in the village.
The other party is a serial plan, and it is a dead end for them to advance and retreat!
But, instead of dying now, and dying later, is there still a choice? Of course, I'll have to wait a while!
Life is not the end, everything is possible!
If you delay for a while, you will have more hope of living!
Xiao Lian didn't necessarily listen to his brother's words, but he was still very obedient to Xi Yang, and as soon as Xi Yang opened his mouth, he responded, saying, "Then let's retreat!" ”
He has been fighting and brawling since he was a child, and it is not enough to say that he is strong in martial arts, but he will protect the little emperor with his own life, probably ...... Is that okay?
If you don't protect the little emperor, you have to protect Xi Yang, don't say that she is the regent's quasi-princess, the person on the tip of his brother's heart, and his only sister!
As a last resort, everyone could only retreat back into the hall behind closed doors.
Dali Siqing is naturally the first to escort, and these people he personally brought, although there is no shortage of good hands, but the mortal body can't fight the black pressed arrows, right?
After retreating, he first proposed: "There is a breakthrough point in observation, send the emperor out first!" ”
Including Xiao Qian, everyone nodded.
Xi Yang didn't nod.
The feudal class absolutely worships the Son of Heaven, and would rather die than escort herself, which she still admires.
saw Xiao Qian turn his head to look at her and asked, "...... you What's the difference? ”
Although the matter was urgent, the corner of his eye had been paying attention to her, and he naturally knew that she seemed to be thinking about something else.
Xi Yang turned his head to look at him and said, "They know that the emperor is here, and they dare to make a big move." It can be seen that they have the determination to die if they don't win. After we disperse the manpower, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not reinforce and track, and stab the emperor to death when there are few people around him. ”
People who are usually lazy and lazy have a condensed face at this time, with a bit of a murderous atmosphere.
Zong Zhengxun was slightly stunned, and said in his heart: It's really like an imperial uncle!
Whether it is Xiao Qian or Dali Siqing, they are not brainless people, after listening to Xi Yang's words, they did not refute, but pondered separately.
Xi Yang said: "We don't have many people, and we still have key witnesses and evidence. It is necessary to hold together. ”
After a pause, she added: "In addition to delaying as much time as possible to save our lives, we have to send someone to secretly leave to report the news and bring in reinforcements." ”
Xiao Lian interjected weakly: "However, their purpose is to kill us, and they must start releasing rockets in a while, right?" ”
"That's inevitable." Although Xi Yang's face was cold, he was also very calm and rational.
She looked at Jiang Yi: "Brother Jiang Yi, you have good feet and good light skills." I'll leave it to you, can you do it? ”
Jiang Yi did not hesitate at all: "The subordinates will not disgrace their lives!" ”
Dali Siqing also explained: "A two-pronged approach, one more guarantee." Xiao Meng, you go too. Don't work together, act separately to increase your chances of success. ”
Xiao Meng under his hand immediately clenched his fists: "Yes, my lord!" ”
Immediately, the two left.
As for how they can avoid the eyes and ears of those men in black, leave smoothly, and succeed in reporting the news, it depends on their ingenuity.
"The most important thing for those of us who stay here to do is not to be burned to death and wait until help comes."
Xi Yang looked at Zong Zhengxun and said, "The other party uses fire, and we can only use water." ”
Zong Zhengxun nodded approvingly, and turned his head to look at Zhuangzi's steward: "Where is the water source?" ”
The steward immediately said: "In the vegetable garden in the rear, there is a well, and there is also a large cistern, which is used for watering vegetables and washing on weekdays. ”
Xi Yang said: "Take out all the sheets, quilts, and coats of this Zhuangzi and soak them in water for later use." In addition, everyone should prepare several handkerchiefs, and cotton cloth can be done without them. Most of the deaths caused by fires are not fire, but smoke. Later, when the smoke rises, cover your mouth and nose with a wet cloth, and when the fire spreads, cover yourself with wet sheets, and preferably your own clothes, so that they will not catch fire. ”
Speaking of this, she opened the medicine box again and said, "Everyone came to get the medicine, there are not many of them, it will last for a while." ”
Her medicine is not enough for one person and one pill, so she is naturally a person with a more noble identity.
Xiao Qian refused: "I don't need to share the others." ”
"Are you stupid?" Xi Yang looked at him with a mentally retarded expression.
