The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 740 Give you a way out

"Sister Cao, hundreds of young people have been taken away from the Neighborhood Square, and all of them have been pushed up the city wall!"

"Hey, I heard that the rebels are very powerful. Aren't these people going to die?"

Sitting on the threshold, Mrs. Liu was talking to Concubine Duan who was busy in the room.

It is called busy work, but it is actually sorting cotton cloth, which is the latest weaving by Concubine Duan.

It's a pity that the government will definitely not come to collect these things in the near future. The whole city is now focusing on defending the city.

"You have been out for a long time, what else did you hear?" Concubine Duan stopped what she was doing.

"I also heard people say that at Zhengyang Gate this morning, the anti-king met the emperor!"

"I heard from people outside that the prince is the uncle of the current emperor, and today he scolded the emperor in front of tens of thousands of people inside and outside the city!"

Hearing this, Concubine Duan smiled, and then asked, "What did you scold?"

Mrs. Liu took a look outside, and then said vigilantly: "Those are all taboo words, I dare not say nonsense!"

Concubine Duan smiled and said: "What are you afraid of? The houses around here went out early in the morning to find food, and they haven't come back yet... Are you afraid of someone eavesdropping?"

Since the siege of the city by the Yong army, the food supply in the city has tightened a lot, and the government has not released food for two days.

Families without reserves can only find ways to find work in exchange for food for a few more days.

Of course, Concubine Duan will not be short of food here, and even Liu's grandparents will follow suit.

"I heard from people outside that the prince called the current emperor a traitor, saying that the former emperor was killed by the current emperor!"

"And I've heard people say that even if the emperor surrenders, that prince will not let him go!"

"Sister Cao, tell me, these two are uncles and nephews by blood, and they are still a family. Why do uncles insist on nephews to die!"

While Mrs. Liu was muttering, she only heard Concubine Duan murmur: "Zhao Weilong is not dead, the teacher is born without a name!"

Regarding this point, Concubine Duan and Zhao Yanxun thought of something.

At this moment, a little doll ran into the room and shouted loudly: "Grandma, I'm hungry!"

Hugging his grandson into his arms, Mrs. Liu scolded in a low voice: "I just know what to eat, how many meals do I have to eat a day?"

"Be more honest with me these two days, don't go out and play around, do you hear me?"

Seeing Shuanzi's eyes begging for mercy, Concubine Duan said with a sullen face, "If you are disobedient, I won't give you food!"

…………

"My lord, the person surnamed Li has just left the city gate, and it seems that he is going home!"

Hearing the report, Su Chuyun nodded, and then said, "Okay... let's go to his house and wait!"

"go!"

Ten minutes later, Li Jinglong arrived outside his house with a dozen of his own soldiers.

Since the Yong army besieged the city, he had not been home for four days.

Just now someone in the mansion sent a letter saying that his youngest son was sick and asked him to go back and have a look.

According to the requirements of the Ministry of War, during the siege of the Yong army, all generals must stick to their posts. At this time, Li Jinglong obviously did not come as required.

This also shows that the imperial court's control over the army is weakening, otherwise Li Jinglong would not have such boldness.

Leaving the guards outside the door, Li Jinglong entered the mansion alone.

Seeing the boy passing by, Li Jinglong immediately ordered: "Hurry up, prepare the food and drink at home, master, I will take them away in a while!"

He didn't eat or drink well in the military camp, so he returned home today to make a small meal for himself.

After giving this order, Li Jinglong rushed to the inner house, and he heard his son's crying from a distance.

When Li Jinglong entered the inner house, Su Chuyun led more than 20 guards and sneaked in from all directions of Li's residence.

These people are all second-level soldiers, and their skills are not ordinary. They entered the mansion and took control of the inner house very easily, and they did not attract the attention of the outside of the mansion.

"Come here, get two basins of hot water..."

Li Jinglong yelled outside, but no one answered, which made him even angrier.

"These slaves should be taught a lesson!" Li Jinglong's wife was sullen.

Walking towards the door with a dark face, the next moment Li Jinglong realized something was wrong, there was no one outside.

"Where are people? Where did they all die?" Li Jinglong walked to the center of the courtyard.

At this moment, a person appeared at the entrance of the hall and walked towards Li Jinglong with his hands behind his back.

Seeing Su Chuyun's attire, Li Jinglong knew that this was not a servant in the mansion, so his face became more gloomy.

"who are you?"

Su Chuyun replied: "Master Li, I am the one who came to save you!"

"Save me? Why do I need your help?" Li Jinglong was full of puzzlement.

"Don't you know what His Royal Highness King Yong said today?"

Without waiting for Li Jinglong to answer, Su Chuyun continued: "You are stubbornly resisting, and you will be killed without mercy. Do you think you are facing a catastrophe?"

Just hearing this, Li Jinglong judged Su Chuyun's identity, and immediately said, "Are you from King Yong?"

"That's right!"

"Aren't you afraid that I'll let someone arrest you?"

"Catch me?" Su Chuyun smiled, and then said: "You should think about it first, how can you save the lives of your family!"

Walking slowly behind Li Jinglong, Su Chuyun sighed and said, "You know better than me that the defense of the capital can't last for a few days, and it is inevitable that His Royal Highness King Yong will take over the capital!"

Of course, Li Jinglong knew that he also wanted to find a way to survive, but it was a pity that he had no "connector".

But now, it seems that this way has emerged.

"Having said so much, why are you looking for me?"

"You are stationed at the Zijin Gate, as long as you are willing to lead your troops to do justice, His Highness will remember your contribution!"

"This is a serious crime against the Nine Clans!"

Hearing this, Su Chuyun laughed: "I don't know if the current emperor can kill your nine clans..."

"But His Royal Highness, King Yong, will definitely kill your whole family!"

The last sentence made Li Jinglong tremble, and he had no doubt that King Yong had this ability.

At this moment, Su Chuyun walked up to Li Jinglong, patted him on the shoulder and said, "You are a smart person, you know what to do!"

"This afternoon, our army is gathering outside the Zijin Gate, waiting for you to open the city gate and welcome the king into the city!"

"Do you understand?"

Li Jinglong's face was gloomy, and he nodded the next moment. In fact, he had only this way to go.

As for the so-called loyalty, it does not exist at all. After all, the lives of the whole family are the most important.

At this time, Su Chuyun smiled and said: "You have to hurry up, if the other commanders take the lead, you will lose your head!"

From the beginning to the end, Su Chuyun was extremely calm, which also made his words more feasible.

But in fact, Su Chuyun only found Li Jinglong, and the others stayed on the city wall, unable to get close at all.

In fact, it was after the siege of the city by the Yong army that the control in the city was relaxed, so that Su Chuyun and others could move frequently.

"Don't worry, I will take care of it!" Li Jinglong said in a deep voice.

"Well, I'll take my leave!" Su Chuyun said calmly.

He has done this matter, and it will definitely be a great achievement. Next, he will pass the news to the camp outside the city by phone.

Then, under Li Jinglong's gaze, Su Chuyun walked out of Li's residence.

At this time, Li Jinglong's wife appeared at the door of the room and asked, "Master, who is here?"

"Wait a while, take the children to hide, don't come out no matter how chaotic it is outside, I will send someone to protect you!"

"Did you hear me?"

"I heard, what's going on?"

"Don't ask too many questions!"

After saying the last sentence, Li Jinglong walked outside, and then he wanted to fight for the lives of his family.
