Hello Chang’an
Chapter 583: everything will be fine
Chapter 583 Everything will be fine
"You destroyed my horse pole..." The leading man looked at Wu Zhaobai who stood up staggeringly, and asked one word at a time: "How about you pay for it with your life?"
Wu Zhaobai stopped in front of his sister, with more anger than fear on his face: "Kill if you want. Our Wu family has been innocent for generations, how could we..."
Wu Chunbai suddenly passed over his brother, pulled him back two steps, interrupted his words, and said loudly: "My father is Wu Yu, the Minister of Household Affairs!"
The man seemed to have heard a big joke: "Are you the minister of household affairs in the imperial court? Where are you in the imperial court?"
"The current dynasty has died!" One person said with a greedy and fierce look in his eyes: "Let's go in and see what good things are in the house of the Minister of Household Affairs!"
Several people held knives and ran into Wu's house like gangsters.
At the signal of the leading man, another soldier drew his sword and went towards the Wu brothers and sisters. While Wu Chunbai pulled his brother back, he forced himself to calm down and said: "...General Bian will definitely proclaim himself emperor when he enters Beijing! How can he be proclaimed emperor? Can the situation be stabilized without civil servants?"
"The situation tonight is chaotic, and General Bian has no time to intervene in the affairs of the city. But in the future, when General Bian finds that there is no one available, he may not be able to pursue the fault of those who wantonly killed officials and people after making money tonight!"
Just as the blade in the soldier's hand was about to fall, the leading man narrowed his eyes and said, "Let her finish."
Wu Chunbai tightly grasped the wrist of his brother who was also trembling, and tried his best to stay calm: "The general only needs to use my brother and me as hostages, and my father and the clan will definitely turn back afterwards... This is the case for my Wu family, and other officials and families can also do this. He will be imprisoned temporarily so that he can serve the new dynasty in the future... If the general uses this to offer his services to General Bian, he will surely be appreciated and put to good use by General Bian, and the benefits will not be limited to the size of the present one!"
The man looked at Wu Chunbai with great interest: "It seems that you, the little lady, not only want to save yourself, but also want to save other officials and families..."
"But you are right, this is indeed a good opportunity to make a meritorious service." The man's eyes flashed, and he thought: "I am noble and imprisoned without killing. Maybe I can sell those officials a favor..."
Before Wu Chunbai could breathe a sigh of relief, he heard the man say: "You reminded me very well. I will consider adopting it later, but you two - still have to die."
A sinister disgust gradually appeared in the man's eyes, as well as the pleasure of being in control of everything: "You are calm in the face of danger, smart and decent, teach this brainless **** like me how to do things, right..."
"What I hate the most is this face of yours that always looks superior to others. I want to see how long this face can last!"
A teasing smile appeared on the man's lips: "Kill them, strip them naked and throw them into the street!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the soldier swung his sword again, and another man behind him got off his horse and raised his sword fiercely.
Others have regarded the two Wu brothers and sisters as destined to die, and together with the leader, they swarmed into the Wu family like locusts.
Just as the knife in front of her was about to fall, Wu Chunbai suddenly felt someone holding her shoulders, and then the figure turned around and stood in front of her, using his back to catch the knife for her.
"thump!"
Wu Chunbai's eyes widened and he fell to the ground under the weight of the staggering figure.
When the two fell to the ground together, the blade had fallen again.
Wu Chunbai's head was buzzing from the fall, but he could still clearly hear the sound of the blade cutting through his clothes and skin, cutting to bone and flesh. He also heard his brother's painful scream that he couldn't suppress, and the gnashing of teeth and teasing voice of the person wielding the knife: " …Looks like it’s useless, but it’s a bit tough!”
As he spoke, one knife fell after another. With each blow, Wu Zhaobai's body trembled, but he still held Wu Chunbai tightly under him and held her head with both arms.
Wu Chunbai was suffocated under her brother's chest and couldn't see anything. She wanted to get up, but she was held down tightly.
Big tears rolled out of her eyes, and her internal organs seemed to be thrown into boiling water. Every part of her body was burning violently, her bones were almost broken, and her internal organs were almost turned into ashes.
Perhaps it was due to the tremendous pain, or perhaps her brother finally lost strength and she was finally able to push him away.
When the butcher's knife that would never give up until someone was killed was about to fall again, Wu Chunbai stepped forward suddenly, slammed into the person holding the knife, and screamed in her throat as if it had never belonged to her.
At this moment, she really hated it!
She had never hated it so much!
Last year when she was sent as ambassador to Dongluo, she had witnessed the chaotic times. At that time, she was sad and angry, but she had not yet tasted the taste of hatred...
But at this moment, she was protected by her brother, and when she heard the knife falling on him one after another, she truly understood what troubled times were.
She hated this troubled world, hated the people who caused it, and hated these despicable knife-wielders!
Her Wu family has been clean for generations, and the officials in her family are all honest. Since her father was appointed as the Minister of Household Affairs, he has devoted himself to the hardship of people's livelihood. Most of her family's wealth has been spent on relieving the refugees...
Her brother, who has been pedantic for many years, has been working day and night over the past year to write articles about saving lives and saving people. Although he always likes to talk on paper, he is not wrong, and he is definitely not a person who deserves to die!
And these Bian Jun, who keep claiming to be for justice, have no reason at all. They only need to raise their butcher knives to destroy everything!
So she also hated herself, hated herself for being incompetent and useless... Just as she had exhausted all her strength at this time, she could only knock the man holding the knife back a few steps. She had endless hatred, but she still couldn't hurt the despicable person at all!
Just when Wu Chunbai decided that she could only die with this hatred, the knife that was about to fall on her suddenly fell, and the person she bumped into suddenly fell backwards.
When Wu Chunbai followed and fell to the ground, he saw that the man was pierced by an arrow in one eye, and fell to the ground letting out a shrill and piercing scream.
Wu Chunbai turned around suddenly and saw another person also fell to the ground after being hit by an arrow, followed by a group of four or five people on horseback, all wearing dark robes, whose descriptions could not be seen clearly.
Wu Chunbai rushed to his brother's side, reaching out to help him up, but he didn't know where to start. His body was covered with injuries, his body was covered with blood, and thick scarlet water kept pouring out of his mouth...
Wu Chunbai wiped the blood from his mouth with trembling hands and asked casually: "Brother, does it hurt..."
Wu Zhaobai's voice was broken: "It hurts, it's cold..."
Wu Chunbai almost immediately took off her coat and hurriedly covered him, but she soon realized that this was of no use and she was extremely helpless. She suddenly raised her voice, cried and asked angrily: "...Why do you want to replace him?" I'll stop the knife! Why don't you leave?"
"Whether they wanted to take me away or kill me just now, you just took the opportunity to leave! If they make things difficult for you, just kneel down and kowtow a few times, and you can always survive! Why do you have to..."
"I don't want to kowtow to them..." Wu Zhaobai's voice began to become weak: "I can't just watch them humiliate my sister... My sister is the most talented woman in the capital, why do they..."
"Chunbai, I am not as good as you in anything..." The blood in his mouth was still gushing out, and his voice sometimes trembled: "...You arranged everything well today, and when I just went out, I saw you walking at the back...I thought, I should also be somewhat responsible..."
Under such circumstances, the corners of his mouth trembled and he actually smiled: "Chunbai, this time, I may not be as good as you..."
"You are just not as good as me, I don't want to owe you!" Wu Chunbai cried: "You are not allowed to die, I just want you to live to see how I can become better... You are not allowed to die!"
She held her brother's shoulders with both hands and rested her head on his cold forehead. Her voice finally dropped and she sobbed like the wind: "Brother, don't die, please..."
"Chun Bai...I just realized that if you just let go of your prejudices and be a normal person, you can beat many people..." Wu Zhaobai's voice began to lose focus: "Being a normal person is so easy..."
"Remember to tell your grandfather, father, mother..."
"Your sister-in-law, and Ah Xian, I..."
His voice became softer and softer, and he closed his eyes before he could finish the next words.
"...Brother?" Wu Chunbai froze, raised his head tremblingly, and stared blankly at his silent brother.
After being at a loss for a moment, she stood up suddenly, came to the side of Bian Jun who had an arrow in his eye and fell to the ground, picked up his knife, held it tightly with both hands, and slashed away with almost all her strength. One sword, two swords, three swords...
Wu Chunbai, who had removed his shirt and had his hair loose, was covered in blood, but his hands still refused to stop, slashing like crazy.
Reason, calmness, truth, nothing exists anymore, only endless hatred for this cruel world.
It was not until Chang Yan, who had dealt with the surrounding Bian army, took the knife from her hand and dragged her into the carriage by force.
On the way, Chang Ren rescued two officials and girls who were forced into the alley. Although they didn't recognize which family they belonged to, they also put them into the car together.
The two girls, the younger of whom were only seven or eight years old, did not know what they had witnessed. Their whole bodies were shaking violently, their faces were pale, their eyes were dull and dull, and they could not make any sound.
The older one hugged his knees tightly, buried his head in his arms, and his body was trembling slightly.
When Wu Chunbai finally tried to open his eyes, he met the young girl's big, distracted eyes.
For a moment, Wu Chunbai stretched out his blood-stained hands and slowly hugged the young girl.
The girl finally burst into tears: "Sister Wu...my father is dead! What should I do!"
"Don't be afraid..." Wu Chunbai whispered: "Everything will be fine."
Her voice was low, and her red eyes were filled with endless determination, full of determination to end this troubled world, as if she had made the heaviest oath in the world.
There were chaotic cries outside the car.
After witnessing Bian Jun's methods, countless people desperately fled towards the rear city gate.
Another carriage stopped at the back door of Dengtai Building. Wei Qin, the Duke of Zheng who was crying along the way, rushed out of the car. When he saw the restaurant in front of him, his crying stopped and he exclaimed in surprise: "Madam... why are we here?!" "
The Wei family has a great business, so they are naturally prepared to leave the city today, but his wife has to leave with two people of unknown origin—
Seeing that he could not be persuaded, Zheng Guogong chose to grab the corner of his wife's clothes and follow her steps... But why did his wife bring him to this Dengtai Tower!
"Just go in!" Mrs. Duan grabbed her husband and walked inside.
At this time, another group of people followed and poured into the building. Zheng Guogong vaguely saw the people in Yao Tingwei's house, and knew that there must be a mysterious arrangement here. He felt a little more at ease, and then began to cry again: "Madam, what do you think of Qing'er?" she…"
"Shut up!" Mrs. Duan was upset by his crying: "The palace has already made arrangements. Qing'er and the prince must be on their way out of the city at this moment!"
Zheng Guogong: "Then those flowers and plants of mine..."
"Shut up!" Duan said angrily: "How many people have fallen under Bian Jun's sword along the way! What's going on outside? Human lives are worth less than a piece of grass, and you still worry about your crap!"
As soon as these words came out, Zheng Guogong cried even more sadly.
The fate of flowers, plants and all living things is miserable. How can he not cry in such a purgatory-like miserable situation!
"Dare I ask, my uncle..." Yao Xia and Yao Gui asked a guard in the building about Yao Yi's whereabouts.
"Don't worry too much. Yao Tingwei has been in the palace today and will definitely leave the capital with him—"
The Yao family felt a little at ease. Amid the chaos, Chang Ren arranged for everyone to enter the secret passage and asked his subordinates: "Have the Qiao family not arrived yet?"
"I've already sent someone to pick me up, and I should be on my way!"
Chang Ren nodded and asked, "What's the situation over there with Princess Xuan'an?"
The eldest princess has been detained in the capital. She is the person named by the girl to take special care of, and she is also the person whom the Marquis has repeatedly written to protect.
The eldest princess also had a lot of secrets in the capital. After secret discussions, the other party lent him a lot of manpower and asked him to use it to save more people.
In addition to the people on the list, Chang Ren and his subordinates also rescued some unfamiliar officials or civilians. Although their abilities were limited, they did their best.
During this period, they have successively killed off three groups of Bian troops who tried to enter Dengtai Tower to plunder. If this continues, more Bian troops will inevitably be attracted, and the secret passage will be exposed... They must leave as soon as possible, and no more can be done. Stayed.
Even later, even if you leave the city, you will be in danger of being intercepted by Bian Jun outside the city!
After Princess Xuan'an arrived, Chang Ren urged everyone to speed up their actions, arrange the aftermath, and sent additional personnel to deal with the Qiao family.
Qiao Yubai helped her mother board the carriage. After Qiao Jijiu stuffed Ah Wuye into the carriage, he urged: "Hurry up!"
Qiao Yubai in the car was startled: "Isn't Dad with us?"
"I have to stay." Qiao Yang said: "Most of the students in the Imperial College are young, angry and outspoken people. If I leave and no one is watching them, they might cause some devastating disaster."
Qiao Yubai was about to get off the car: "I'll stay with daddy!"
"That's stupid." Qiao Yang said, "If you don't follow, who will take care of your mother? As a father, you must fulfill your duty as a teacher, and you must fulfill your filial piety as a son."
Qiao Yubai's eyes turned red: "But daddy..."
Staying at this time is equivalent to putting your life in the hands of the brutal Bian Jun. Life and death depend on those people's thoughts!
"Don't worry, there aren't many things in the Imperial College worth Bian Jun's covetousness. As long as I mediate properly, nothing will happen." Qiao Yang said, "Although your father and I have been fishing for many years, don't forget it." What am I from—"
Qiao Yang stroked his neat beard: "In the past, I was the first counselor under His Royal Highness the Prince!"
"Are you afraid that you won't be able to deal with this Bian Jun?" Qiao Yang waved her hand: "Go ahead!"
Seeing his persistence, the coachman did not dare to delay. He shouted "drive" and drove away with his whip.
"Daddy, take care!"
"You be good to me, or I..." In the car, Wang choked and said, "Otherwise I will break all your broken fishing rods and burn them all!"
"Okay." Qiao Yang smiled and waved her hand, watching her wife and children leave.
He turned around and walked back, with tears in his eyes and a sense of clarity.
Now that the first prince is back, it’s natural for the first prince’s advisers to resume their old business!
