In Hongshun Casino, Qu Yunchu, Liu Quan, and Chen Yingnan stayed here for five consecutive days. Seeing that the fifth day was about to pass, and there was no news or movement in the city, Liu Quan was already a little anxious.

Qu Yunchu, however, was as steady as a mountain, sitting quietly at the gambling table, calculating the situation in Quzhou.

Even though he had calculated everything very carefully, without the Changzhou Army, I am afraid that the rebels would still be defeated and enter the city, and it would not be impossible to rush into the Lu family, burn, kill and plunder.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but worry about the safety of Lu Wenqian, her mother, and her sister.

But it's not like Lu Mansion is so big that it doesn't even have this kind of defense ability.

After all, he has solved the bulk of the problem, and Lu Wenqian should be able to handle the few that slipped through the net.

Thinking of this level, she thought about it for a while before sitting down firmly.

Before the critical moment, the most important thing is to stabilize Liu Quan.

Seeing that she had not moved, Liu Quan couldn't hold back the anxiety in his heart. He frowned and asked, "Young Madam, you said before that an imperial edict from the imperial court would be delivered to Yanyang City within five days. Today..."

"Not urgent."

Qu Yunchu interrupted him unhurriedly and pointed in the direction of the window outside: "Don't worry, father-in-law, today is not over yet."

Just as he finished speaking, a carrier pigeon suddenly flew in outside the willow window.

Chen Yingnan got up and fetched the letter from the carrier pigeon to show Liu Quan.

Liu Quan was shocked when he saw it and didn't speak for a long time.

"Master Weaving."

Chen Yingnan shouted weakly from the side.

Liu Quan's dull eyes gradually turned to Qu Yunchu, holding the letter and muttering to himself in disbelief: "The Holy Empress was given poisonous wine by the emperor as soon as she arrived outside the palace gate. Now the Eight Hundred Miles Expedited Military Order is in progress. Go to Changzhou and order the Changzhou army to rush to support Quzhou."

After hearing this, Chen Yingnan was so shocked that he didn't speak for a long time.

The two of them looked at Qu Yunchu together and said in awe, "Young Madam is really a master of calculation."

"You two are ridiculous, but the emperor's imperial edict has not yet reached Yanyang City."

Qu Yunchu smiled casually and said: "My father-in-law cannot be careless. I'm afraid I have to bother my father-in-law to go there in person to urge the soldiers and people in the city to resist the rebels and boost their morale. We cannot let the Hanyi Guards slack off."

"Our family will leave the city to meet the enemy."

Liu Quan knew that without Han Dian's army, some fish would slip into the city and cause chaos. Without his own command, the Hanyi Guards would inevitably slack off. He did not dare to hesitate and immediately got up and left with Chen Yingnan.

Qu Yunchu yawned lazily, called Keyan, and walked out carelessly.

"Let's go back home quickly."

When she walked to the entrance of the gambling house, Qu Yunchu looked around. When she heard the commotion around her, she realized that there were indeed rebels sneaking into the city.

Just as he was about to get into the carriage, he saw a group of men in black surrounding him menacingly.

"Madam, it's not safe in the city now. Please come with us quickly."

The leader's voice seemed to be deliberately suppressed, which sounded strange.

There was no need to think too much, Qu Yunchu noticed that something was very wrong with this group of people, they were sneaky and they definitely had no good intentions.

"Nonsense, there is no place safer than the city at this time."

Qu Yunchu protected Keyan behind him and scolded sternly: "Auntie, I am very tired today. Please don't provoke me, otherwise I will make you die miserably."

"Young Madam, how long has it been and you still want to play such a trick to fool people?"

The leader was not intimidated by her and said with a sneer: "If you don't follow us obediently today, your end will be tragic."

After finishing his words, he waved to the man in black under his hand, and everyone swarmed up and headed directly towards Qu Yunchu.

Just as Qu Yunchu was about to take out his jade flute, he suddenly heard the neighing of horse hooves from all directions, and a large number of people and horses surrounded him from all directions.

"Whoever dares to hurt my wife at all will be killed by me."

The person at the front was holding a silver gun and running straight towards this side with a heroic appearance.

Qu Yunchu recognized the person at first sight as Ji Zhen, and slowly loosened his grip on the jade flute.

The man in black saw that the momentum was not right and was about to take someone by force. Ji Zhen threw the silver gun in his hand and flashed past the man in black.

Immediately afterwards, the two groups of people fought fiercely, and in the blink of an eye, all the men in black were subdued. The leader wanted to run away, but Qu Yunchu immediately threw a summoning talisman, and two brats appeared out of thin air. Shengsheng dragged the man in black back.

<divclass="contentadv">The man in black felt the wind blowing under his feet and floated back uncontrollably. When he arrived in front of Qu Yunchu, he still looked confused.

"What... what's the situation?"

The man in black asked dumbfounded.

"You told me not to mess with me, I will make you die miserably."

As Qu Yunchu said this, he angrily tore off the man in black's face mask and immediately recognized the face of the man under the firelight.

"Ji Ping?"

Qu Yunchu was a little surprised: "Where do you want to take me?"

Ji Zhen also found it incredible and said angrily: "If you are not at home to protect the safety of the people in the mansion, what are you doing here?"

"I……"

Ji Ping hesitated for a long time and couldn't think of an explanation.

Qu Yunchu probably guessed what this guy was up to, and he must have been ordered by Lu Yanchao to take advantage of the chaos to kidnap him.

Hey, this eldest nephew is on the verge of death and his evil intentions are still there.

You really look down on people, and you have so many soldiers and generals who want to kidnap people.

"Your master really hasn't made any progress at all. It's not easy for him to miss me, my aunt."

Qu Yunchu sneered angrily, looking at the men and horses led by Ji Zhen, he felt something bad in his heart.

Lu Wenqian's crazy criticism was simply unnecessary. What did he do with so many people guarding him? Who else in the world did he fear except the person sleeping in his body?

She had no other abilities, and she had as many ways to escape as she wanted.

"Go back to the Lu family quickly."

She didn't dare to delay any longer, and anxiously got into the carriage and urged Ji Zhen to go back.

……

The rebels who had been defeated from Quzhou regrouped in the Yanyang City area, and were once again pursued and intercepted by the Hanyi Guards, and they fought together.

There is still a small group of people who want to take advantage of the emptiness in the city and prepare to rob some gold and silver treasures along the way and continue to escape.

The Lu family naturally became their first target.

Hundreds of people poured into the city and went straight to Fengyage Pavilion of Lu Mansion.

Lu Wenqian had already ordered his fourth son, Lu Wenjing, to set up ambushes everywhere in the courtyard. The rebels had already lost hundreds of people before they even broke into the Xiyuan Bank.

When we got to Xiyuan Bank, we couldn't attack it no matter how hard we attacked.

Seeing that the casualties were getting heavier and heavier, the rebel leader knew that continuing like this was not an option. He immediately changed his focus and ordered everyone: "Attack the main courtyard and move everything you can rob and move away for me."

After giving the order, everyone rushed towards Nuo Da's Lu Mansion and started burning, killing and looting.

In Qishuang Courtyard, Jiang Rui and the young and old in the house were watching the fierce battle at Fengyage with cold eyes.

"Sister-in-law, how about we send some people over to help Wen Qian."

Lu Boting finally reminded her unbearably: "Sanniang is over there too."

Jiang Rui had a sullen face, clenched his teeth and never said a word.

Lu Boting added: "At this time, gather all the people in the house to kill the generals together. Attacking from both sides may be able to severely damage the rebels."

"Second brother is confused."

Lu Boyong said disapprovingly: "The rebels swarmed into the city for nothing more than money. The Xiyuan Bank is enough for them to move. How can they think about our side? Let Wen Qian and the rebels stand in a stalemate for a while longer. When they come, Reinforcements, it’s not too late for us to go out to meet the enemy.”

Jiang Rui naturally had no intention of caring about other people's lives at this time, and Sanniang had no control over whether she would live or die on the path she chose.

Now she can only take care of her grandson and her great-grandson who is about to be born.

"Tell me to go down and be on guard. No one is allowed to leave his post without permission."

As soon as Jiang Rui finished speaking, he saw Butler Lu running in and crawling, saying loudly: "It's not good, it's not good, the rebels are coming in."
