From a son-in-law to a favorite of the empress

The Zhao Mansion was already in a mess.

Hundreds of rioters were frantically looting the few properties, and the only three or five servants had been killed by them.

Zhao Jianjia, Chen and four maids hid in the cellar, trembling.

They watched the servants being killed and hundreds of rioters rushing in, and they were already scared out of their wits.

But Chen had been with Zhao Cheng for so many years, and she had not collapsed yet. Instead, she whispered: "Don't be afraid, Jianjia, your father will come to save us."

"Don't make any sound, hold on, they can't find the cellar."

Her voice was clearly trembling. How could she not be afraid after such a thing happened?

Zhao Jianjia's face was pale and her eyes were filled with tears. She gritted her teeth and encouraged herself: "Yes! Daddy will come to save us! Don't be afraid!"

"Bang!"

The door of the cellar suddenly made a loud noise, and a hoe went straight through the thin cellar door, and the light from outside came in.

"There is a cellar here! There must be gold hidden in it!"

"Come on! Come and help me open it!"

The people outside shouted, and more people began to respond, making a lot of noise.

And Zhao Jianjia in the cellar changed his face and despaired.

If this was discovered, it would be impossible to live or die!

Zhao Jianjia burst into tears and trembled, "No, mother! We can't be caught by them!"

She picked up the scissors, her knuckles turned white from the force, and choked, "It's better to end my life than to be humiliated!"

As soon as the words fell, the cellar door broke open, and several rioters jumped down the stairs.

They looked up and their eyes widened!

"Oh my God! There are so many beauties hiding here!"

"Brothers, come down and enjoy!"

The guy threw away the hoe in his hand and rushed directly towards Zhao Jianjia and others.

At this moment, he was completely desperate!

Screams rang out, and more people rushed in from under the cellar.

One of them was covered in blood, holding a long sword, and fell to the ground with the sword, killing four or five rioters.

He then looked up and looked at Zhao Jianjia and others.

"Don't come over here!"

Zhao Jianjia held a pair of scissors and screamed, "If you come over here, I will fight you!"

Zhou Yuan couldn't help laughing and said, "My Jianjia is really a hero! Women are as good as men!"

"Ah?"

The familiar voice made everyone stunned.

Zi Yuan, who had been frightened for a long time, finally recognized him: "It's the son-in-law! It's the son-in-law!"

At this moment, Zhou Yuan was covered in blood and his hair was disheveled like a devil. It was normal that they couldn't recognize him.

Zhao Jianjia trembled and said, "Zhou, Zhou Yuan? Are you here to save me?"

Zhou Yuan pushed aside his hair, wiped the blood off his face, and chuckled, "Do you recognize me now?"

"Woo woo woo!"

Zhao Jianjia's mentality was completely unbearable, and she hugged Chen and cried bitterly.

For most of the hour, she seemed to have gone to the Hades' Hall three times, experienced life and death fatigue, and only had a fragile heart left to persevere.

"Yuan'er, what's the situation outside?"

Chen was still calmer and asked quickly.

Zhou Yuan could only say: "It's all chaos. Hundreds of rioters are looting property in the mansion. I also sneaked in."

"But I believe the turmoil will soon pass, one day at the fastest and two or three days at the slowest."

Chen said: "What should we do now? There are rioters outside."

Zhou Yuan turned around and saw another person jumped down.

He said in a deep voice: "It's not advisable to stay here for a long time. I'm afraid that a master will come to kill us. We have to rush out."

After speaking, he raised his sword and killed several rioters in a few strokes.

Zhao Jianjia and others screamed in fear, and Chen's face turned pale.

They finally knew where Zhou Yuan's blood came from.

"With so many dead, there must be a master coming. Come with me!"

Zhou Yuan roared, climbed up the ladder, raised his sword and killed. He killed seven or eight of the dozen rioters, and the rest were scared and ran away.

Zhao Jianjia and others were at a loss, so they could only follow Zhou Yuan to kill outside.

But the rioters were getting more and more, and they all surrounded them.

Zhou Yuan killed one of them, cut off his head directly, and held it in his hand.

"Damn it! Who dares to come here! I'll send him to see the King of Hell!"

He was covered in blood, like Shura. With the blessing of internal strength, his voice was heavy and his momentum was endless.

Hundreds of people around looked at each other in surprise. Although they looked fierce, they didn't dare to get close.

"Who's afraid of who!"

A strong man roared, holding a butcher knife, and strode towards Zhou Yuan and others.

Others saw this scene and hurriedly followed to kill!

Zhou Yuan didn't dare to hesitate. He shouted and pierced the strong man with his sword!

"He's dead! You dare to come!"At this moment, the momentum was important, and the people around were scared away again!

Zhou Yuan panted and said sternly: "I am the general of the city defense camp! I have killed people since I was a child! I have killed at least 800 people!"

"Who wants to die, keep coming!"

The mob had never seen the world before, and they were most afraid of the soldiers. After hearing what Zhou Yuan said, they dared not step forward.

They all wanted money and sex, only fools wanted to die.

"I will give you the money! Make way for me! Otherwise, don't blame me for killing people!"

He winked at Zhao Jianjia and others, and strode forward with his sword.

The mobs around swallowed their saliva fiercely, and unconsciously made way.

Zhou Yuan protected Zhao Jianjia and others and rushed out of the Zhao Mansion.

There were not many refugees outside, and they all rushed into the houses around. Zhou Yuan's road was much easier.

"Quick! Go into the alley!"

Zhou Yuan shouted loudly. He was responsible for the rear guard and killed some desperate mobs.

At this point, Zhao Jianjia and others finally joined Qu Ling and others.

Zhou Yuan finally rushed into the alley, almost exhausted, and gritted his teeth and said: "Go! Those mobs can't get away after they react!"

Everyone was in no mood to care about anything else at the moment, and hurriedly ran deep into the alley.

They ran into a looted house, and Zhou Yuan sat on the ground with his buttocks, saying: "Water! Give me water!"

Zhao Jianjia was slightly stunned.

Qu Ling hurriedly came over with a kettle and handed it to Zhou Yuan.

Zhou Yuan held the kettle and drank a few mouthfuls before he let out a long breath.

Killing people is too tiring, and confronting hundreds of mobs is even more tiring. If you are not careful just now, they will all die!

Fortunately, these are just ordinary mobs, not Wusheng followers, otherwise there would be no chance to calm them down.

Seeing that he was extremely tired, Qu Ling whispered, "I'll rest for a while before setting off again."

Zhou Yuan nodded and said, "Boss, take people out to look out. If there are mobs approaching, report immediately."

"Okay!"

Qu Ling's orders were no longer needed. Now the old boss and others regarded Zhou Yuan as the backbone, and his orders were the heavenly principles that must be executed.

Zhao Jianjia looked at Zhou Yuan's bloody appearance, and the fear in her heart faded a lot, but she also had an extremely complicated emotion.

The person in front of her was her husband, but she didn't know him at all.

I thought he was lazy and cowardly, mediocre and rotten, but I didn't expect him to be very talented. Not only could he write poems and lyrics, but he could also write "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

He could also rely on his own strategies to destroy Fengming Tower, save Ningyue, and even save Baiyan Tower.

At this moment, he actually picked up the sword to kill the thieves, saving the lives of his family by himself.

A person with almost no merits, became a man of both civil and military talents...

But I have already proposed to divorce him...

Why did he come back to save me? He must still care about me.

But what he said this morning clearly showed that he didn't want to live with me anymore.

Zhao Jianjia's thoughts were extremely confused, especially when she saw Qu Ling handing water to Zhou Yuan, she felt like an outsider.

Zhou Yuan didn't look at Zhao Jianjia, he knew Zhao Jianjia's personality very well.

This woman is good at self-attack.

What Zhou Yuan is thinking about now is where to hide.

Perhaps, the Xue family is the safest place.

The hundreds of Xue Changyue's personal guards are all heroes who have killed the Tartars, and the mob is no match for them.

Sending Zhao Jianjia and Qu Ling there, Zhou Yuan was really relieved.
