Chapter 80 I want to save her

Due to the support in the city, the Quanrong people did not have a single stick of incense time to attack the city. When 50,000 troops and horses arrived, the city gate was closed. In order to prevent the soldiers outside the city from rebelling, the late emperor did not equip them with any means of climbing ladders or other means.

The weapons for siege must be inspected by the eunuchs in the palace every ten days. If anyone is found to have hidden them secretly, the nine tribes will be imprisoned for the crime of treason.

The late emperor would not have thought that his series of operations would lead to the current situation.

All the city gate guards have been killed. The impregnable city wall was originally used to defend against foreign enemies, but now it is guarded by dog ​​soldiers to resist the army that saves the imperial city.

The patrol team of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, who are responsible for the security of the capital, usually deal with thieves and gangsters. They have never been on the battlefield, have never seen foreigners, and some have never even killed anyone in their lives. How can they be the opponents of the Quanrong people? The organization

The attack team was quickly dispersed, and the bodies were piled haphazardly on the streets.

Most of those who were lucky enough to escape hid and refused to come out, and only a small number joined the Forbidden Army.

The imperial guards defended the palace, anxiously fighting with the dog soldiers.

The only people left in the city who could fight against the Quan Rong were the Forbidden Army, but their numbers were too small and their power was limited. They could only rely on their familiarity with the terrain of the streets to fight in separate groups to eliminate the scattered forces of the Quan Rong.

But no one dared to approach the main force led by the third prince and He Ge.

Every household closed their doors and windows tightly. At this time, it was supposed to be the lively market time in the capital. Small merchants and hawkers began to set up stalls to do business, but now it was so quiet. No one dared to come out and run around, especially the guards in the Gaomen Courtyard.

Stand ready.

Everyone is praying in their hearts, praying that the next door to be knocked is not their own.

The family of Chi, the censor of Zuodu, left behind not only a group of female relatives but also Chi Jingwen.

He was disgusted with the complicated process of the heaven-sacrifice ceremony. Not only did he have to go without eating or drinking for a whole day, but he was also unable to speak, so he stayed in the mansion on the pretext that he was not feeling well today.

The censor of Zuodu scolded him a few times, but he had no choice but to go there with his two sons.

Chi Jingwen could not have imagined that he would encounter such a thing during his unintentional stay.

He didn't know whether to be happy or worried at the moment.

The good thing is that as a man, he can accompany his family members in critical moments, alleviating their fears and giving them support. The sad thing is that he himself is a frail scholar, unable to carry his shoulders or lift his hands, so he can only talk to his mother at the moment.

I gathered around with my sister and prayed that those Dog Rong people would not come to Chi Mansion.

His home is not as heavily guarded as the Grand Master's Mansion, and I haven't left him that many experts to protect him.

The boy ran in to deliver the latest news.

"The third prince took the Quanrong people to the Earl of Xianchang's Mansion!"

"What?!" Chi Jinshuang was the first to jump off the chair, "Earl Xianchang's Mansion?! Where's Sister Tang Xi's place?"

Mrs. Chi sat next to her, with a worried look on her face: "Both Xian Changbo and the eldest son of the Tang Dynasty have gone to the Ancestral Temple, and there are only a few female relatives left in the mansion. I'm afraid the worst is worse." She shook her head helplessly.

"What should we do?" Chi Jinshuang stamped her feet anxiously. She and Sister Tang Xi hit it off immediately. Whenever she thought of the weak and fragile girl who was about to face those cruel dog soldiers, she felt heartbroken. "Brother, think about it.

The solution is to save Sister Tang Xi."

Chi Jingwen shook his head dejectedly. He naturally wanted to save her. What man wouldn't want to have the reputation of a hero who saves a beautiful woman, but what could he do? In front of these barbaric people, all wisdom and strategies seemed extremely feeble.

At this time, I am afraid that only Jian Chijin returning with his troops can save everyone.

Chi Jin, if you don’t come back, the little flowers of your iron tree that has finally bloomed will be destroyed.

Chi Jinshuang bit her lower lip, her heart skipped a beat, and she turned around and ran out.

Chi Jingwen, with quick eyes and quick hands, grabbed her and pulled her back, "What are you doing?"

Chi Jinshuang's eyes were red and she curled her lips in dissatisfaction, "I'm going to save her!"

Mrs. Chi stood up, but she only said a few words at the birthday banquet, but she didn't know that her daughter already had a deep affection for Miss Tang.

She sighed silently, held Chi Jinshuang's hand, and comforted: "You can't even protect yourself, how can you save her? Shuang'er, when you grow up, you should be more sensible and don't let your mother and elder brother worry about you.

.”

"But I..."

"There is no but!" Chi Jingwen lowered his voice, with a straight face, expressing his brother's majesty for the first time, "Before you have no ability, the first thing you consider is not to hold you back, rather than to save others. How do you know that Uncle Xianchang doesn't have it?"

Arrange a way for her? How do you know you won't drag her into danger if you go so boldly? As the daughter of Zuodu Yushi and the second lady of Chi Mansion, you must always remain calm and cautious, in order to only

It is too rash and reckless to send someone who has met you once to die."

After finishing speaking in one breath, Chi Jingwen mentally slapped himself twice, what he said was so inhumane!

But now she can only listen if he speaks to the point.

Sure enough, Chi Jinshuang stopped rushing out, squatted on the ground, buried her head and cried loudly.

Mrs. Chi glared at Chi Jingwen, squatted down and hugged Chi Jinshuang, comforting her softly.

Chi Jingwen was also quite helpless. He sighed secretly and sat back down in a desolate manner. He was a useless scholar. The old saying does not deceive me.

"Master! Master! Someone has surrounded our Chi Mansion." The boy ran in to report.

Chi Jingwen almost fell down from his chair and exclaimed, "The Dog Rong is here?!"

Chi Jinshuang also raised her head from her knees, with a look of panic on her face.

"No, they are wearing our clothes and are from the Central Plains. They stood outside without coming in, as if they were here to protect us."

Chi Jingwen pursed his lips. The only person who could protect his Chi Mansion at this time was probably... Jian Chijin!

"Come on, take me to see you." He stood up in a hurry and walked out.

Go through the winding corridor and reach the gate of the mansion.

"Brother outside, my young master wants to see you, can you come in?" The boy stood at the crack of the door and shouted out.

There was movement outside, and there was a knock on the door.

Chi Jingwen knew that they agreed and ordered the door to be opened.

The people who came in were wearing ordinary civilian clothes, but they held their heads high, their eyes were sharp, and they were majestic.

"Who sent you here?" Chi Jingwen asked.

The man glanced around.

Chi Jingwen understood and asked others to stand farther away.

"General Ning Yuan asked us to come." The man lowered his voice.

General Ning Yuan disobeyed the emperor's order and camped troops privately in the capital city. No one could know about this, so they pretended to be ordinary people.

Chi Jingwen raised his eyebrows with joy and asked again: "Can Earl Xianchang's Mansion send someone there?"

The man nodded.

The general has good relations with Mr. Chi,

Chi Jingwen finally felt relieved and clasped his fists, "I have thanked you all today. The kindness of protecting each other will be unforgettable. From now on, you will be my guests in Chi Mansion. If you need anything, please come to Chi Mansion to find me."
