Chapter Ninety-Three: Temporary Head of the Family

Han family rules: During the period when the head of the family goes out, the affairs are handed over to the eldest son, the younger son is handed over to the younger brother, and the younger brother is handed over to the nephew ......, and so on, to ensure that there is a man sitting at home, so as to avoid trouble, and the Hou Mansion is more special, from top to bottom, from the inside to the outside, there is only one male in the family - Xiao Yi, neither brothers, nor children and nephews, it is really a thousand acres of fertile land, a single seedling!

The ancients said: Things are in a hurry, there is no man in the house, only let the woman come forward to take charge, the two ladies do not understand the military strategy, take the initiative to retreat, and the rest are the four young ladies, the question is, who can provoke the girder of the Hou Mansion?

With questions, everyone's eyes kept wandering on the faces of the four girls, and according to their personalities, abilities, and courage, they chose the most suitable family members!

Among the four, Zhao Yu is the oldest, and his martial arts are also the best, with a white horse and a silver gun, as fast as lightning, and the general generals are not her opponents, the problem is that the little devil doesn't like to use his brain, he is impulsive when he encounters problems, and he is a typical big-chested and brainless, so letting her preside over big things must be a mess!

Lu Ling'er is very smart, she is a resourceful girl, her martial arts are not bad, and she has the legacy of a 'tiger dove', but her identity is very problematic, the daughter of Wenhou will always be an indelible brand, people can love her, they can respect her, but they can't obey her orders, in the final analysis, Lu Bu's death, the Xiao family is responsible!

As for Daoxiang, it was directly ignored by everyone, the little girl has a soft personality, innocent and cute, if you elect a kind girl, she is definitely the best choice, the problem is, now I want to kill people, not to save people!

The four of them went to the third, and only Xiao Jing was left, she was also the most suitable acting head of the family, in terms of identity, she was the sister of the Metropolitan Governor, ranked among the Xiao family tree, and her status was far above everyone, even the names of Cai Wenji and Zhen Mi were also ranked behind her!

In terms of character, perseverance and determination, iron-blooded and ruthless, both bodhisattva heart and butcher methods, almost out of the same mold as Xiao Yi, many people have sighed: "If Xiao Jing is a man, he should be Xiao Lang's second!" ”

In terms of martial arts, she has received Xiao Yizhen's biography, fists and feet, blades, bows and arrows, and horsemanship...... Proficient in everything, a piercing fire boring in his hand, dancing, impervious to wind and rain, and amazingly powerful!

In terms of ability, she has participated in death squads, dozens of lives in her hands, crawled out of the pile of dead people, was an orphan leader when she was a child, and when she grew up, she commanded hundreds of women's army, and she was said to be a natural commander!

With these four advantages, Xiao Jing temporarily took Xiao Yi's position, took charge of the power, and mobilized people, which was also expected by everyone, and the Hou Mansion was convinced!

"The Metropolitan Governor is on an expedition to Xiliang, there is no one in charge of the house, and the concubine is incompetent, please ask the eldest lady to temporarily take the position of the head of the family and command the people to keep safe!" Zhen Mi and Cai Wenji stepped forward, saluted respectfully, and took the initiative to hand over the power of the Hou Mansion!

"Please Sister Xiaojing preside over the overall situation to keep the mansion safe!"

"Please take charge of the overall situation to keep the mansion safe!"

……………………………………

Zhao Yu, Lu Ling'er, Dao Xiangwei, everyone bowed and saluted, willing to obey the command, at the same time, the soldiers asked for a big flag, a golden wolf head, wavy patterns, and a black background deficit, which is Xiao Yi's handsome banner and a symbol of the head of the family!

"Everyone is looking forward to it, don't dare to refuse, the Hou Mansion, listen to my orders!"

At the moment of life and death, Xiao Jing did not shirk, stepped forward, took the black flag, held it high in the air, and officially took over the power of the Hou Mansion as the temporary head of the family!

When the head of the family took office, he faced two major problems, first, the situation in Xuchang was chaotic and dangerous, how to protect the Hou Mansion from being safe and sound, so as not to catch fire at the city gate and affect the pond fish!

Secondly, the rebels are besieging the Prime Minister's Mansion, the situation is extremely critical, the soldiers and horses of the Hou Mansion are waiting and watching, or go to the rescue, and how to rescue?

"Pass my military order: open the treasury, take out the armor, blades, bows and arrows, divide the people, from now on, the whole house is a soldier, and the whole house will fight the disaster together!

Where is the steward Song Zhong, he immediately led people to prepare clear water and sand, and was on guard to prevent the fire from spreading and burning to the Hou Mansion!

The situation is chaotic, just in case, please ask the two sisters-in-law to hide in the underground treasure house, after peace, the little sister will pick you out, otherwise, you must not take a step! ”

Xiao Jing has the style of a brother, don't look at her age, she has a very good command of people, she is thoughtful, she responds decently, and she has the demeanor of a general!

"No! - Obey the orders of the eldest lady! ”

At the sound of the order, everyone immediately took action, opened the treasury, divided weapons, gardeners, grooms, cooks, maids, ......, each with a knife, and stood by, and the vat of water was also prepared to prevent the enemy from attacking!

Zhen Mi and Cai Wenji took some valuables and hid in the underground treasure house, where the terrain is hidden, the protection is tight, and the water and grain are stored, which is the safest place in the house!

Protecting one's own safety is only the first step, the Prime Minister's Mansion is in great danger, and there is a danger of falling at any time, whether people and horses go to the rescue, this is the key thing!

"Xiao and Cao are one, their lips are dead and their teeth are cold, now that the Prime Minister's Mansion is in trouble, we must go to the rescue, and at all costs, we must also kill the rebels!"

Looking at the skyrocketing fire, Xiao Jing's expression was very resolute, she is not a politician, and she doesn't understand scheming, but she also understands a simple truth, the main trunk of the big tree is broken, how can the branches and leaves survive?

The elder brother is the prime minister's confidant and favorite general, and he is the future son-in-law of the Cao family, the fate of the two families has long been connected, sharing honor and disgrace, sharing wealth and prosperity, once the prime minister's mansion falls into the hands of the enemy, let the rebels control the situation, and there will be no good fruit to eat in the Hou Mansion without worry!

Even at the critical moment, in order to protect the Prime Minister's Mansion, it is worth sacrificing the Hou Mansion, as long as the main trunk of the big tree survives, are you afraid that it will not be able to grow new branches and leaves?

As for the Hou Mansion, the house can be rebuilt if it is gone, the treasure can be robbed again, the wife can be remarried when it is gone, there is nothing that cannot be abandoned, as long as the eldest brother is safe and sound, and the power is not lost, everything can be started from scratch, or even better!

"Life in the world, know how to repay the kindness, most of the governors are as heavy as a mountain, we are waiting for the opportunity to die to repay the service, rescue the Prime Minister's house, and destroy the traitor!" Xiao Jing pulled out her sword and gave the order to send troops, life and death, honor and disgrace, fight here!

"Rescue the Prime Minister's Mansion and destroy the traitors!"

"Rescue the Prime Minister's Mansion and destroy the traitors!"

…………………………

Three shouts, the door of the house was wide open, Xiao Jing took the lead, held high the battle flag, and led the people to rescue the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Rescue is not the same as sending death, there are not many soldiers and horses in the Hou Mansion, leaving a part of the guards, and there are only 500 people who can be dispatched, half of them are the women's army, and the other half are the pro-soldiers in the house!

This amount of troops, if you directly kill Suzaku Street and fight against the rebels of 3,000 people, it is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, and the result of the battle is not only unable to rescue the Prime Minister's Mansion, but also have to take it yourself!

However, the magic of soldiers and horses is not in the number of soldiers, but in the people who are dispatched, as long as they are used properly, an embroidery needle can kill people!

Xiao Jing has followed the eldest brother for many years, and has learned a lot of military strategies, and if the attack fails, let's play conspiracy, and summarize it in sixteen words: "Fight chaos with chaos, deter people's hearts, encircle Wei to save Zhao, and attack from behind!" ”

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………

"Xuanjia Iron Horseman, invincible in the world!"

"Ghost-faced Xiao Lang, return triumphantly!"

"Whoosh! …… Sou! ”

The reinforcements were divided into two ways, Lu Ling'er and Daoxiang took hundreds of women's troops, holding high the banner, shouting everywhere, passing through the mansion of the hundred officials, and shooting a few arrows into it to strengthen the momentum!

Xuchang is in a mess, hundreds of officials are ready to move, the sound of sharpening knives, Huo Huo can be heard, in this case, it is impossible to restore law and order, appease people's hearts, only to fight poison with poison, to control chaos with chaos, to create more rumors, deter people's hearts, in order to control the situation!

Dong Cheng and others staged a coup d'Γ©tat, that is, taking advantage of Cao Cao's inspection of Guandu, Xiao Yi's expedition to Xiliang, Xuchang City was empty, and no one presided over the overall situation, so they wanted to take advantage of the situation and seize power, if Cao and Xiao were here, they would not dare to act rashly!

As soon as the four little girls discussed, 'tear the tiger skin and make a big banner', they said that 'Ghost Face Xiao Lang' had returned triumphantly, and the Xuanjia Iron Horse had entered the city, using the eldest brother's unparalleled murderous name to deter people's hearts!

Facts have proved that their strategy is effective, and the civil and military officials are all smart people, and their advantage is 'thoughtful and cautious', and the disadvantage is that they are 'too thoughtful and cautious', and they often miss the opportunity!

In the chaos, there are many people who want to fish in troubled waters, many people sharpen their knives and guns, prepare their war horses, step out of the threshold with one foot, and are about to show their skills, when they suddenly heard that 'Ghost Face Xiao Lang' is back, and they don't have time to distinguish the real from the fake, so they quickly retracted their feet back, closed the door tightly, and no longer dared to act rashly!

The name of the person, the shadow of the tree, since Xiao Lang commanded the army, he has been invincible and invincible, and he is known as 'the first warrior of the Han Dynasty!' ’

In addition, this son is bloodthirsty, kills people like hemp, builds 'Jingguan' with corpse bones, plays with 'skull lamp', has a unique reputation, and the world's fear of Xiao Yi is still above Cao Cao, the latter only kills the living, and the former does not even let go of the dead!

Of course, the civil and military officials are not fools, they are also suspicious, reliable information, Xiao Yi is recuperating from his injuries in Xiliang, how could he suddenly return to Xuchang, but he is not afraid of 10,000, just in case!

The Xuanjia Iron Horse, as fast as lightning, has created a record of running more than 300 miles in one day, who dares to guarantee that people will not fall from the sky?

Besides, some careful people have checked it, and the cluster of arrows shot into their own mansion is the standard equipment of the Xuanjia Army, canine barb arrows - there is no semicolon!

With countless doubts, the hearts that are ready to move have fallen silent for the time being, and they need to think again......

At the same time, Xiao Jing and Zhao Yu led troops to rescue the Prime Minister's Mansion, but they didn't go to Suzaku Street, but turned their horses' heads and went all the way north to Xuanwu Street, which is also a place where the emperor's relatives gather!

In front of the General's Palace, three red lanterns were hung high, which was a signal of the coup d'Γ©tat, but after the middle of the night, the oil ran out, the lights dried up, and the fire became extremely faint, and it seemed that it was about to be extinguished!

The vermilion gate was closed, and the men with combat effectiveness inside followed Dong Cheng to besiege the Prime Minister's Mansion, leaving a group of old and weak women and children, and the defense was extremely empty!

"Rush in, kill them all, and leave no one behind!"

Looking at the door of the mansion, Xiao Jing gritted her silver teeth and issued a kill order, the eldest brother has always forbidden himself to kill, but the situation is in crisis, life and death, and he has no choice but to kill!

"Kill! …… Kill! ”

Amid the shouts of killing, hundreds of soldiers smashed through the gate, swarmed in, and washed the general's mansion in blood......
