54. The Transformation of Jiankang (I)
Not long after, Tassel, Yan Rui, Lin Yinzi, Lin Yanhong and others were sleepy-eyed, and they all came to Zhao Yueru's room with their respective children, and saw that Zhao Yueru and Zhao Qianru were accompanied by a young and beautiful young woman, and there was a little girl by the young woman's side, and they couldn't help but feel a little strange.
Zhao Qianru pulled Ye Muxue and introduced to everyone: "This is Ye Muxue Ye girl, ladies and sisters, I don't have time to explain more now, in short, this Ye girl will also be our sister in the future, I will explain the specific reason to you in the future." Now there is a major event that is related to the life and death of our entire Yang family, so it is so late, and I called everyone up and prepared to leave the mansion immediately. ”
As she was talking, suddenly her family came to report, saying that Zhou Xin and Ling Xiang had come in a hurry. Zhao Qianru asked Zhao Yueru to continue to explain to everyone, and she immediately got up and came to the outhouse.
Seeing Zhou Xin and Ling Xiang and his wife, Zhao Qianru immediately said the matter briefly, and the two of them were shocked when they heard it, they didn't expect such a thing to happen, Zhao Qianru then said: "Lord Zhou, you immediately go and recruit the staff of the Ministry of Justice, first transfer a part to the palace to guard, and the rest of the people stay outside to listen to the news." Lord Ling and his wife followed us into the palace to defend the emperor. ”
Ling Xiang and Huang Mingxia have also been married for many years, and have given birth to a boy and a girl, who are about the same age as Shunhua and Langying, but now they stay in their hometown in Guangnan and are raised by the same clansmen, not in the capital. Therefore, they have no worries as a couple.
Zhou Xin nodded, and was just about to get up and leave, when the staff of the department came to report, and the groups of outsiders who were under surveillance were all promoted by the scriptures, some went to the palace, some went to the barracks, and some came in the direction of the Yang Mansion. At this time, Gu Xueping also came back, brought Zhao Chen's edict, and ordered Zhao Qianru and Zhao Yueru to immediately take Yang Yan's family to the palace to take refuge temporarily.
Zhao Qianru knew that the rebellion had happened, so she immediately ordered without hesitation, all the female dependents and children hurriedly got into the car, Yang Yan's wives and concubines each brought only two maids, and the young men were given weapons at the first rate, and the other female dependents and elderly men all went out of the house to escape for the time being.
At this time, the house prepared to get out of four big cars, because Zhao Yueru and Lin Yinzi were pregnant, Zhao Qianru was immediately assigned, Yan Rui and Lin Yinzi shared a car, protected by Huang Mingxia, tassels and Lin Yanhong took four children in a car, protected by Gu Xueping, she and Zhao Yueru took a car, Ye Muxue and Langying and a group of them, each car with another maid, the other maids took another car, the nursing home and the middle-aged man protected around the carriage, and Tie Chenglin opened the way, after Ling Xiang was broken, Zhang Wei responded in the middle and set off immediately. There were also one hundred and twenty people in the Yang Mansion's nursing courtyard plus the middle-aged men, who were clustered around four carriages and marched towards the palace.
At this time, it is almost the second watch day, although today is the Lantern Festival, and it is not forbidden to stay at night, but at this time, most of the trading auxiliary households are closed, and there are few people on the street, so it is convenient to walk. However, when the convoy walked five or six miles, they only heard shouts from behind, and when everyone looked back, they saw that about several hundred people had chased after the team. And from the streets on both sides, many people poured out, attacking both sides of the convoy.
Tonight's operation consisted first of an attack on the barracks, followed by an attack on the Royal Palace. Although Yang Mansion is also one of the targets, Shi Miyuan and Zong Tianxuan thought that although there were many people in Yang Yan's Mansion, there were mostly old, weak, women and children, and Yang Yan was not at home, and Zhao Yueru was pregnant again, so it was not difficult, so they focused on the military camp and the palace, and the Yang Mansion only sent three second-generation disciples of Tianji Palace, Zhang Fangyuan, Qin Huang, and Liu Jingtian, to lead more than 800 rebels.
As soon as the convoy of Yang Mansion left, the three of them led the army to arrive, and found that there was only one empty house left, and they grabbed a few slow Yang Mansion family members and asked, only to know that Yang Yan's family members had left with Yijing, and the two immediately sent people around to inquire, and it was also the dead of night, and the convoy of more than 100 people moved a lot, and it was soon discovered by the rebels. Therefore, Zhang Fangyuan, Qin Huang, and Liu Jingtian immediately followed up with the team.
And the Yang Mansion's family members protected the four carriages, and under the command of Tie Chenglin and Ling Xiang, they rose up to meet the battle, and the two sides immediately fought.
Although the number of family members in the Yang Mansion is small, the assembly is not bad, half of them are wearing leather armor, and ten people are wearing iron armor. Most of them are armed with knives and guns, and there are more than a dozen bows and crossbows in the ranks, and they are all veterans who have undergone special military training, and even dozens of them have been on the battlefield to recruit and kill, and they have very rich combat experience. At the moment, the armor-piercing people are facing the rebels in the outermost periphery, the unarmored ones are in the inside, and the crossbowmen are in the center to respond, with a clear distinction and orderly advance and retreat, Ling Xiang, Tie Chenglin, Gu Xueping, and Zhang Wei are also people who have experienced the battlefield, and they are also able to command with ease.
Although the rebels are numerous, they are a rabble, and they only know how to rush forward blindly when they start a battle, and there is no formation at all, but they are squeezed together, and the people in front can't get down, and the people behind can't go up, so they fight and suffer a big loss, if the Yang Mansion family members don't want to protect the four carriages, they can almost all repel the rebels. But now they are fighting and retreating, and continue to rush to the palace.
Zhang Fangyuan and the other three saw that their number was several times that of the other party, but they had nothing to do with the opponent, and almost all of the people killed and injured in the battle were their own people, and they were not very anxious, if Yang Yan's family ran away, how would they explain to Zong Tianxuan. Therefore, the three of them glanced at each other and decided to fight together, the three of them were all brothers in the same sect, and they were very familiar with each other, and they formed a triangular formation at the moment, with Zhang Fangyuan using a spear as an arrow, Qin Huang and Liu Jingtian each using a long sword, dividing the left and right, and at the same time storming up the team of Yang Mansion.
The three of them were all outstanding in martial arts, and once they joined the battle group, the Yang Mansion's family members suddenly couldn't resist it, and in the blink of an eye, they were killed by more than ten people in a row, and rushed to the front of the last carriage. The three of them swung their weapons together and struck at the carriage. This is the carriage that Zhao Yueru and Zhao Qianru are riding together, although it is also very strong, but it is just made of ordinary wooden fests, if it is hit by the three of them, it will definitely be shattered. On the other side, Ling Xiang, who was fighting fiercely with the rebels, saw it, and hurriedly pulled over to block it, but he took a step back, and it was too late.
At this moment, I suddenly saw the back door of the carriage open, and the sword flashed, scattering thousands of rainbows, shooting straight at the three of them. The chilling sword qi enveloped all three of them at once, and the momentum was so amazing that the three of them had the illusion that their opponents were attacking them.
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! Three low whines of thunderous blows, Zhang Fangyuan, Qin Huang, and Liu Jingtian were all forbidden to take a few steps back. I saw a white cloud floating out of the car and falling on the roof of the car, standing with a sword, it was Ye Muxue. She didn't want to be the enemy of her former classmates, but seeing that the situation was urgent, she had no choice but to make a move. And in this way, Ling Xiang also rushed back with a warp, guarding the side of the car with a sword.
Zhang Fangyuan, Qin Huang, and Liu Jingtian couldn't help but be stunned when they saw it, Zhang Fangyuan said, "Is it Senior Sister Ye?" ”
Ye Muxue frowned lightly and said softly: "Senior Brother Zhang, Senior Brother Qin, Senior Brother Liu, I haven't seen you for a long time. ”
Qin Huang said: "Senior Sister Ye, you ...... How do you help Yang Yan's family. ”
At this time, Zhao Yueru said in the carriage: "She is now Yang Yan's wife, so she naturally wants to help Yang Yan." ”
When the three of them heard this, they couldn't help but be surprised, and Liu Jingtian asked, "Senior Sister Ye, is this true?" ”
A helpless smile bloomed on Ye Muxue's face, and she said, "Senior Brother Zhang, Senior Brother Qin, Senior Brother Liu, you all step down, I don't want to do anything with you." ”
The three of them heard that Ye Muxue did not deny it, and they couldn't help but be surprised, when Zong Tianxuan and Ye Muxue competed for the position of the next Tianji Palace Master, they used to talk about Ye Muxue and Yang Yan's guanji, at that time everyone was skeptical, and later after the dissolution of Tianji Palace, Ye Muxue did not show up for several years, and no one mentioned this matter again. Unexpectedly, Ye Muxue has really become Yang Yan's wife now.
And when he was in Tianji Palace, Ye Muxue was the most outstanding figure among the two generations of disciples who were as famous as Zong Tianxuan, and he had always been the object of admiration of other disciples. And just now, with one enemy and three enemies, he didn't fall behind at all, which shows that over the years, Ye Muxue's cultivation has improved again, so when the three of them saw her suddenly appear and become Yang Yan's wife, their hearts couldn't help but be confused, and they didn't have the courage to step forward to challenge Ye Muxue again.
Without the three of them to suppress the formation, the other rebels were naturally not the opponents of the Yang Mansion, so the Yang Mansion's convoy fought and retreated, gradually distanced itself from the rebels, and marched towards the palace.
Ye Muxue sat back in the car, and Zhao Yueru said: "Sister, don't blame me for telling you and Xianggong about it just now, it's just that you and the Tianji Palace in the past must have a break, so it's better to take advantage of this opportunity to cut off from now on." ”
Zhao Qianru also said with a straight face: "Yes! Now the imperial court takes Western Xia in the west and attacks the Central Plains in the east, using troops on two fronts. It is the great Song Dynasty Zhongxing, a great opportunity to regain the lost land. All the people of the Great Song Dynasty should work together to help the imperial army succeed. And Zong Tianxuan and others are only for their own selfishness back then, do not think about the country, and blatantly launch a rebellion, which will make the Great Song Dynasty court turbulent, the society is uneasy, and the recovery plan will also be ruined. ”
Ye Muxue lowered her head and said, "The two sisters are right, in fact, Tianji Palace was disbanded by the master back then, and it no longer exists. Now I am only a member of the Yang family, not a disciple of Tianji Palace. Please rest assured that the two sisters. ”
Zhao Yueru held her hand and said in a harmonious voice: "We also know that it is too difficult for you to do this, but the overall situation is current, we can't hesitate, we must make a trade-off, don't worry, we can all trust you." ”
