"What, you say it again?"

Lu Boyong looked at Butler Lu dumbfounded.

"It's true."

Butler Lu panted and swallowed a big gulp of saliva: "The rebels have been unable to attack the Xiyuan Bank for a long time, so they will attack the main courtyard instead."

"This……"

Lu Boting suddenly frowned: "Where is Yanchao? Where is Yanchao?"

He stepped forward hurriedly. Just as Butler Lu was about to reply, a sharp arrow suddenly struck him, piercing directly from his back and piercing his heart.

Butler Lu fell to the ground before he could even scream.

"Quick, take sister-in-law and leave quickly."

Lu Boting was so frightened that his scalp went numb and he shouted.

Lu Boyong staggered a few trembling steps, and ran out without caring about the whole family.

The entire Lu Mansion was already in chaos. Jiang Rui was protected by Lu Boting, followed by a group of old, weak, women and children, who fled in panic.

The boys were leaderless, they were running away and dying, and they had no intention of resisting the rebels.

Jiang Rui had no idea at this time. She had always believed that her grandson could cope with this crisis, but at the critical moment, she couldn't even see him.

Could it be that he had misjudged the person?

As the head of a dignified family, you can't leave the whole family behind and go into hiding by yourself, right?

"Quickly, go to Qirong Courtyard to look for Yanchao."

She didn't believe that her grandson was so cowardly, so she ordered Lu Boting without giving up.

The Lu family has raised so many people, but it has become a mess at the critical moment. This is all due to the incompetence of the family owner.

A group of people hurried towards the direction of Jinrong Courtyard. Finally, they saw the roof of Jirong Courtyard, only to see a group of people fleeing out in a panic.

Seeing Jiang Rui, the group of people had no intention of stopping and just passed by her regardless.

Jiang Rui's figure became unstable and he was knocked to the ground.

"Sister-in-law."

Lu Boting and his descendants hurriedly helped her up.

"Yanchao, where is Yanchao?"

Jiang Rui was so anxious that he kept asking.

"Stop, I'm asking you something."

Lu Boting was so angry that he yelled at a boy who was lagging behind. He had to let his sons work together to catch the escaped boy and question him fiercely.

The man kept shaking his head: "I haven't seen Mr. Chao."

"Where's You Ning?"

Jiang Rui asked anxiously.

Seeing that the man was stunned and at a loss, Lu Boting hurriedly asked, "Where is the housekeeper's wife?"

The man shook his head again: "Li Rongyuan has been breached by the rebels. There is no owner or wife in the courtyard. We are no longer able to defeat them and have to evacuate. Everyone, please run for your lives quickly."

After saying that, he tried his best to break free from the shackles of the Lu family and ran away.

"You Ning, Chao'er."

Jiang Rui's heart was pounding. She couldn't let the young couple get into trouble.

They are the future of the Lu family.

Thinking of this, she ran in the direction of Li Rongyuan regardless of her own safety.

"Sister-in-law."

When the others saw this, they didn't dare to chase him and quickly fled in the opposite direction.

……

<divclass="contentadv">It was quiet for a long time in the Xiyuan Bank. It was not until the shouts of killing could no longer be heard that Lu Wenjing breathed a sigh of relief. He sent someone to inquire and learned that the rebels were heading towards the main courtyard. He hurried back in panic. Go to the basement of the bank and ask Lu Wenqian: "Second brother, what should we do now? The main courtyard is flat and there is nothing to hold on to."

After persevering this time, he finally saw his brother's good intentions.

It seems that my brother has been planning for many years and has raised so many good hands without telling himself. No wonder he vowed to invite everyone to take refuge in Xiyuan Bank.

Lu Wenqian glanced at the Wei mother and daughter, Lu Junwan and others with a heavy look, and couldn't bear to close his eyes: "At this time, we can only stick to the Xiyuan Bank."

"But mother is still in Qishuang Courtyard."

Lu Junwan's eyes were full of anxiety: "Second brother, if something happens to my mother..."

"Yan Chao is the head of the family. He will never watch his mother fall into crisis."

At this point, Lu Wenqian had no other choice but to comfort Sanniang like this.

After all, he has done what he can. The enemy situation outside is unclear, and the Lu Mansion is too big. He dispersed the people. Once the power is dispersed, Jiang Rui cannot be saved, and he may fall into the rebels' plan. That group of people If it comes back again, how will my mother-in-law, A'a, and those who follow me survive?

How could Lu Junwan trust his nephew? He spoke even more anxiously: "Yan Chao has always been a ruthless and unjust man. He considers a thief to be his mother. He can even let go of his own mother's great hatred. How can he care about his mother at this juncture?" Life or death."

As soon as he finished speaking, he stood up and rushed out.

"What's the point of going out?"

Lu Wenqian said angrily: "With the few manpower in the bank, it is not easy to stand still and wait for help. If we go out to fight, it will undoubtedly be an egg against a stone."

After saying that, he glanced at Jiang Yunqing seriously and ordered sternly: "I don't think much of your wife yet."

Seeing this, Jiang Yunqing had no choice but to force Lu Junwan to the side and sit down.

Wei and Tang Shuli were also patiently comforting him.

Although Lu Wenqian hated Jiang Rui in his heart, he couldn't bear to see Sanniang sad, so he still told Lu Wenjing: "Fourth brother, you take a group of people out to find out the news. You must be careful and don't fight with those desperate people." Just fight hard."

"Second brother, don't worry, I will definitely act with caution."

Lu Wenjing was also worried that Sanniang would act mischievously again, so before leaving, he went over and told Lu Junwan: "Third sister, please don't act out of anger and take good care of your second brother."

Lu Junwan glanced at Lu Wenqian, who was still lying on his stomach unable to move, and couldn't help but feel sad, and nodded obediently.

Lu Wenjing then left with peace of mind.

……

When Qu Yunchu led Ji Zhen's men and horses back to Lu Mansion, the mansion was already in chaos, shouts of killing filled the air, and voices of panicked fleeing could be heard everywhere.

"There are thousands of servants in the Lu family guarding the courtyard, how come they are so vulnerable?"

Qu Yunchu looked at Ji Zhen in great confusion.

At this time, she could only take care of Fengyage, and hurriedly told Ji Zhen: "You go back to Fengyage in one group, and the rest follow me to find Sanniang."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Junyi came striding over with the county government officials and militia soldiers.

"Zhiyi, there's chaos and war outside, why are you out there?"

Seeing that she was unharmed, Xie Junyi breathed a sigh of relief, but he still couldn't help but scold her.

Qu Yunchu had no intention of chatting with him and asked directly: "How is the situation in the city?"

"I heard that the Changzhou Army has arrived after hearing the news and is working with the Hanyi Guards to intercept the rebels attacking various parts of Tanzhou City."

Xie Junyi frowned and said: "But Han Dian and his fellows delayed the opportunity to encircle the enemy. At present, small groups of rebels are still pouring into various counties in Tanzhou. These rebels in Yanyang City are afraid of rushing towards the Lu family. Come on, they failed to attack Fengyage, and now they have pointed their finger at the various courtyards of the Lu Mansion."

Hearing this, Qu Yunchu breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that Lu Wenqian still has some abilities.

Even though there were so many guards in the main courtyard, why were they killed so miserably by a small group of rebels?

She didn't care about this much. After all, Sanniang and Laosi were still in the yard. She hurriedly ordered Ji Zhen: "Let's rush in quickly to help find Sanniang's whereabouts."

In order to reduce casualties, she used the jade flute to summon the contract ghosts from Jiuyun Mountain to help capture the rebels in the city alive.

Suddenly, strong winds and sand filled the sky, making the rebels unsteady on their feet. The process of burning, killing and looting was seriously slowed down.
