Chapter 170: The palace is shocked
A team of fast horse knights galloped through the streets of Yecheng and headed straight for the north of the city. Pedestrians on the streets www.biquge.info pen fun pavilion have retreated, and for a while, chickens and dogs jumped. From time to time, some people could not dodge and fell to the ground, but fortunately, the knights' equestrian skills were superb and did not step on them. When the knights retreated, calm returned to the street, but they dared not speak in anger.
Today's Northern Qi is the world of Hu nobles and high-ranking officials, and these ordinary people don't even have the courage to complain on weekdays. The emperor in the palace only knew how to drink and play, and when the money was not enough, he would collect taxes from the common people, and the taxes set in the early years would be increased again and again. Apportionment every year, debt collection every month, such days can no longer pass!
I heard that the Zhou army was almost about to hit Yecheng last year, but unfortunately it was still a failure in the end. It would be nice if the Zhou army could fight here as soon as possible! Everyone shook their heads, they couldn't bear this kind of life for a long time, but it was a pity that their homeland could not be separated. When will it be their turn!
The collision of military horses on the street is just a small episode, and for them, the common people, filling their stomachs is the most important thing.
For some, though, it's different.
Zhang Zixiang felt that his behavior just now was like a bully ruffian who was bullying people, and wanted to get off the horse and apologize, but he was coerced by Bai San's "great country" and had to move forward.
Zhang Zixiang had also been to Yecheng when he traveled the world before, and he knew the situation here, so it was not easy to blame Bai San, who had become accustomed to it. But he felt that he was a little unpassable, riding a fast horse in the city, hurting people was not guilty, as long as the social rank was higher than that of the injured person, no one would care. What a cruel country this is!
Bai San saw that Zhang Zixiang's face was not good, thought about it for a while, understood Zhang Zixiang's thoughts, and said in secret: "Don't think about it, this is already a normal thing here, you can't change it, you can only get used to it slowly." ”
Zhang Zixiang nodded, indicating understanding, but still felt a little uncomfortable.
If you can't change it, do you have to get used to it slowly? You know it's wrong, but you can't correct it? He is not from the Northern Qi Dynasty, and he is not an official of the Northern Qi Dynasty, so it is difficult for him to say anything. But he knew that if this continued, something would happen one day!
The moon is dark and the wind is high, the fast horse is galloping, and everywhere it goes, it does not stop. Lu Lingxuan led the "Great Warriors" until the middle of the moon before they came to the palace of Chengyang County.
There was not even a servant in front of the empty door, and the door painted with vermilion paint was closed, revealing a strange atmosphere when looking at it.
"Ben Junjun went in by himself, and you waited at the door. Lu Lingxuan raised her eyebrows with anger, turned over and dismounted, and walked straight towards the gate.
Jiaomujiao's figure flashed, jumped up from his horse, and landed in front of Lu Lingxuan: "Lord, let's let my subordinates go and investigate first!"
"Get out of the way!" Lu Lingxuan scolded angrily, "This county gentleman goes back to his son's house, where do you need others to investigate!"
"Then let your subordinates go in with the Lord. Jiaomu Jiao stubbornly knelt in front of Lu Lingxuan, but refused to let go.
"Are you still worried that Deva will harm me?" Lu Lingxuan was furious, knocked Jiaomu Jiao aside with one palm, and walked towards the gate with a single step.
Bright red blood flowed from the corner of Jiaomu Jiao's mouth, obviously seriously injured, but he still struggled to get up and blocked in front of Lu Lingxuan. Because he knew that if Lu Lingxuan went in alone today, he would definitely be sad in the future. He was not worried that Lu Lingxuan would encounter any danger, but was worried that Lu Lingxuan would beat her son to death with his own hands in anger. He loves Lu Lingxuan deeply, and he watched Mu Ti Po grow up since he was a child, how could he bear to watch their mother and son kill each other!
Lu Lingxuan looked at Jiaomujiao's miserable appearance, recalled those days again, her heart softened, sighed, and said, "Okay, if you want to follow, just follow! The rest of the people are guarding the door, and they are not allowed to come in without my order!"
Jiaomu Jiao was overjoyed, ignoring his injuries, hurriedly walked to the closed gate, and with a movement of Zhenyuan, shook the doorpost that was holding the gate and opened the gate.
Lu Lingxuan's face remained unchanged, and he hurriedly entered the door, and Jiaomu Jiao also followed.
I saw that all the servants and maidservants were completely gone, not only the gate, but even the main room, wing room, and study were tightly closed, and the entire Chengyang County Royal Mansion seemed to be dead, without any sound at all. The ground was covered with dark red blood, and there was a faint smell of blood floating in the air, which made people very uncomfortable.
Lu Lingxuan was a little surprised, carefully observed everything around her, suddenly her complexion changed greatly, her body moved suddenly, and she rushed to the main hall in a few jumps, and opened the door of the main hall with a "snap", and the scene inside was even more shocking.
The blood in the place, full of stumps and fragments, seemed to have gone through a bloody battle, exuding an unsettling meaning.
"Lord!" Jiao Mu Jiao hurriedly came over to report after investigating, "The same is true of other rooms, less ...... The young lady is also dead! This is her suicide note!"
There were only four words on that suicide note: "Deva kill me"!
"This brute!" Lu Lingxuan was furious when she saw it, her daughter-in-law was personally selected by her in order to make her son take care of her, and she usually had a good relationship with her. Unexpectedly, he was killed mercilessly by Mutipa.
"The Lord is angry, the young Lord is ...... The young master was just confused for a while...... "Jiaomu Jiao still wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Lu Lingxuan with a cold snort.
"Where is this evil beast now?" Lu Lingxuan got up in a hurry, and immediately went out to find the traces of Mu Tiva.
"No need to look for it!" suddenly a clear female voice came from the courtyard. The two were shocked and hurriedly chased out.
I saw a beautiful woman standing in the middle of the courtyard, looking at the tragic situation in the surrounding houses, showing a comfortable smile. It's Hu Lulan!
After seeing Lu Lingxuan, Hu Lulan said with a smile: "Mother-in-law, you are late. Your son must have arrived at the Imperial Guards by now to start a rebellion, right?"
"You demon girl!" Lu Lingxuan shouted, and was about to kill Hu Lulan. It's a pity that she just wanted to use the true element, but suddenly found that the true element in her body had disappeared, and a sense of powerlessness filled her whole body, making her unable to help but slump.
"Demon girl, what have you done?" Seeing this, Jiaomu Jiao also wanted to make a move, but was surprised to find that his true yuan, which he had cultivated for many years, had also disappeared, and the empty feeling made his brain dizzy, and he almost fell to the ground.
"The taste of scattering gong is not pleasant, isn't it?" Hu Lulan suddenly laughed, and said softly to the two people who were struggling to support them: "You high-ranking cultivators, all of you think that you are superior to others, and you don't treat mortals as human beings!
