Chapter 1029 Dangerous (1)

??

The moon flickers in the misty dark clouds, making people's hearts flutter.

Gao Dongnan stood on the city wall, looked at the open space in the distance, and said, "According to the news, Feng Dajun has already joined Yunqing. It is estimated that they will reach the capital in less than two days."

Gui Sanliang timidly said, "General Gao, the enemy has 550,000 horses?" They only have 200,000 horses in total, not to mention their combat effectiveness, but their numbers are less than half of the opponent's. In this case, how can you hold on.

Gao Dongnan didn't answer this question, but asked Tie Kui: "General Tie, what do you think?"

Tie Kui said: "Yunqing is a victorious general, as long as he leads troops, his morale will be high. In addition, the number of people is far greater than ours. In this situation, we have no chance of winning."

This is the truth, and Gao Dongnan didn't refute it, he just said: "The city is alive and the people are there, but the city is dead and the people are dead." He was going to defend the capital to the death.

Gui Sanliang didn't answer, he didn't want to die at all. If it was not forced by the situation, he would never have taken the initiative to ask for a fight.

Tie Kui sees Gui Sanliang's reaction. If you don't want to die, you have a chance to be drawn into the camp.

Standing on the city wall, it is natural not to talk about confidential matters. When going down the city wall, Gao Dongnan turned to Tie Kui and Gui Sanliang and said, "Go home and have a look. When the rebels come in, you won't be able to go back if you want to." He decided to defend the city to the death, and he also asked Tie Kui and Gui Sanliang To defend the city.

Back in the house, Gao Dongnan's confidant Li Chun said: "General, what you ordered has been done."

Gao Dongnan nodded.

Li Chun said hesitantly: "General, do you really want to burn down the palace?" I don't know how much manpower and material resources were spent to build the palace. It feels like a pity to burn down like this.

Gao Dongnan is Yan Wushuang's diehard loyalist: "Since the emperor has ordered us, we must obey the order." As for the pity, it is not within the scope of his consideration.

Li Chun didn't speak any more.

Gao Dongnan asked: "Is there any change between Gui Mansion and Tie Mansion?" Yan Wushuang was worried about Tie Kui, and he was also worried about Gui Sanliang. Although Gui Sanliang's parents, wife and children are all in Liaodong, Gui Sanliang should not be rebellious, but there are contingencies in everything, so it's better to be cautious.

Li Chun shook his head: "Nothing unusual." Gui Sanliang married several concubines in the capital and gave birth to five concubines. Usually there is fierce competition for favor in your mansion, but after what happened last time, Gui Sanliang's concubine is very peaceful now.

Gao Dongnan said: "Pay close attention to the movements of Tiefu and Guifu, especially Tiefu. If there is anything unusual, you must report to me." This was specially explained by Yan Wushuang.

Li Chun nodded.

Xiao's body is almost healthy, and he only pretended to be sick in order to avoid going to Liaodong. Even the two daughters kept this matter a secret. The main reason is that the matter is too big, and I am afraid that the daughter will not be able to hide the secret when she is too young, which will bring disaster to the doom.

Before Tie Kui entered the room, he heard a burst of cheerful laughter. Walking into the room, I saw two daughters sitting by the bed talking with Mrs. Xiao. The three mothers and daughters all had smiles on their faces. But when the two sisters saw Tie Kui, the smiles on their faces disappeared.

Ruyi and Ruhui stood up and saluted Tie Kui politely: "Father." They have completely different attitudes towards Xiao and Tie Kui.

Tie Kui hummed, and said to them: "Go back to your own rooms first, and I will talk to your mother." Because the situation is turbulent now, the two girls also moved to the main courtyard.

"Yes." After speaking, the two of them glanced at Xiao Shi in unison, and they walked out after seeing Xiao Shi nodding.

Xiao Shi said apologetically: "Master, the children misunderstood Master without knowing it, so don't be angry." Because Tie Kui doted on Aunt Lu before, Xiao Shi and Ruyi sisters suffered a lot of grievances. Even if Tie Kui's attitude changed later, the two sisters were still very distant from Tie Kui.

Tie Kui shook his head, and said nonchalantly: "They have indeed been wronged all these years." The two concubine's daughters are often made things difficult by the concubines, but they are not wronged.

Xiao Shi also resented Tie Kui before, but after knowing the truth, she felt guilty and distressed: "Master can't help himself.

"If it wasn't for his status, Tie Kui didn't need to act for Yan Wushuang.

"In less than ten days, King Ming will lead his troops to the capital. When the prince enters the capital, I will be relieved." When he said this, Tie Kui spoke very briskly.

Xiao was very worried, and repeated the previous topic again: "Master, do you have to disclose your identity? If you disclose your identity, Yan Wushuang will definitely kill you. It is easy to hide a spear and hard to guard against it. Master, please Think twice." She only wanted Tie Kui to live well, and she didn't want Tie Kui to fall into a more dangerous situation because of his identity being exposed.

Tie Kui shook his head and said, "After waiting for more than thirty years, I don't want to wait any longer." Even if he didn't reveal his identity, Yan Wushuang couldn't spare him. If he was assassinated by Yan Wushuang and he didn't disclose his identity, wouldn't it be a loss.

Xiao couldn't understand Tie Kui, and burst into tears.

Tie Kui helped her wipe away tears, and said: "Don't be sad, when King Ming captures the capital, I will take you to Pick City. That is the world of King Ming and Princess Ming, no matter how long Yan Wushuang's hand is, he can't reach there "As long as you are cautious, even if Yan Wushuang wants to kill him, he will not find a chance.

Xiao hesitated for a while and said, "Master, can you not announce Zhan'er's identity first?" Her husband didn't listen and she had nothing to do, but she didn't want her son to be in danger.

Tie Kui hummed and said: "Yan Wushuang is not dead, I will not announce Zhan'er's identity. But when I get to Pick City, I will let you see Zhan'er." The most sorry people in his life are not two The daughter, but the Xiao family, had deliberately doted on his concubine and killed his wife in order to guard against Yan Wushuang. For the safety of their son, let their mother and son not get along for a day. Thinking about it, Tie Kui felt extremely guilty.

When mentioning her son, Xiao couldn't help but shed tears again. After thinking about it day and night for eight years, I finally saw my son soon.

After talking for a long time, Tie Kui finally told Xiao Shi the purpose of coming back this time: "The capital will be more chaotic in two days, and I will send someone to take you and the child away."

Xiao hurriedly asked, "Let's go? Go to Pickaxe City?"

Tie Kui shook his head: "Escape to other places. Only the prince and the princess know my identity. Once the city is broken, I am worried that you will be affected at that time, so I found a place in advance and moved in when the time comes." Being accidentally injured by the Northwest Army was also a ruthless attack by those who were guarding against Yan Wushuang. That place was arranged by Falcon, and it is very safe.

Xiao nodded and said, "Okay."

After explaining again, Tie Kui left.

Ruyi followed Ruhui into the house and saw Xiao's eye sockets were red and swollen. Ruhui's temper is quite irritable, and she was very angry when she saw this: "Mother, what did Dad say again?"

Xiao said: "Ruhui, your father said that the situation outside is chaotic recently, and he asked me to restrain the people in the mansion not to go out."

Ruhui obviously didn't believe it. If you just said this, why would your mother cry.

Xiao Shi sighed and said: "I told you before that your father has difficulties." Before Ruhui could ask, Xiao Shi said: "You will understand in the future."

Ru Hui's words suddenly became louder: "What are the difficulties? If he hadn't favored the Lu family, the younger sister would not have died." The death of her younger sister was the deepest pain in Ru Hui's heart.

Seeing her daughter's hysterical appearance, Xiao couldn't help but said: "She's not..." Before she finished speaking, she heard the maid outside saying that Zhong Shantong begged to see her.

Xiao Shi didn't want to say any more. I will explain these things to my daughter later. Don't talk about it now.

That night, Falcon got the news that Gao Dongnan's confidant Li Chun had taken a lot of tung oil from the barracks. As for what use it is, it is not yet clear.

Chi Ying said solemnly: "Tung oil is taken away at this time, maybe there is some ulterior purpose?" Tung oil is indispensable during night battles.

However, Falcon quickly saw through the purpose: "Gao Dongnan probably wants to burn down the palace."

Chi Ying said: "If this is the case, boss, we must stop it." The palace was burned down, and it would cost a lot of money to rebuild it. And such a large-scale building, I am afraid that it will not be built well in five years.

After finishing speaking, Chi Ying said with a bitter face: "How can we stop it?" Gao Dongnan is now in power, and as long as he gives an order, the palace will be burned down.

Falcon looked silent, only Tie Kui who could stop Gao Dongnan. Furthermore, if Tie Kui could start the incident in advance, they would also be able to reduce unnecessary casualties. Therefore, it is necessary to meet Tie Kui.

In the early morning of the next day, Zhong Shantong received a letter asking Tiekui to meet him in Dezhaoyuelou. Looking at the imprint, Zhong Shantong's expression changed slightly. This falcon on the cusp of wind and waves wanted to see his master, and it was probably something very urgent.

Without a moment's hesitation, Zhong Shantong immediately went into the room and told Xiao Shi about the matter: "Madam, if you want to avoid suspicion, you can only wrong Madam." He wanted Xiao Shi to pretend to be unconscious, so he sent someone to inform Tie Kui also It will not arouse the suspicion of Gao Dongnan and the people who spy on them.

Xiao was a little hesitant: "Butler Zhong, do you think they will ask the master to do something dangerous." It's okay to pretend to be unconscious, but she was afraid that the other party would ask her husband to do something that would endanger his life.

Zhong Shantong was also worried about this, but he still said, "It's up to the master whether to do it or not." They couldn't make a decision for Tie Kui.

Xiao nodded in agreement.

Changdu County is more than 400 miles away from the capital, and it will take two to three days for the army to arrive.

Standing on the city wall, Gao Dongnan said to Tie Kui, "Yunqing will arrive tomorrow afternoon at the latest."

Neither Gui Sanliang nor Tie Kui said anything. Against Yunqing, they didn't even have a single chance of winning.

After being silent for a while, Tie Kui said: "I wonder if the emperor has arrived in Shengjing yet?" Yan Wushuang had been away from the capital for several days, so he should have arrived in Shengjing almost as soon as possible.

Gao Dongnan said without hesitation: "It must be here."

Just as Gui Sanliang was about to speak, he heard Ashao walking towards Tie Kui in a hurry and said, "Master, someone from the family just sent a message saying that Madam was frightened and passed out, and she hasn't woken up yet."

Tie Kui's wife is not in good health, Gao Dong Nan also knows. Otherwise, the Xiao family would definitely be on their way to Shengjing.

Tie Kui asked blankly: "My lady was fine when I went back yesterday, what's going on?"

Ashao didn't dare to look up at Tie Kui anymore: "Madam heard the people in the house talking badly, thinking that the anti-king led troops to fight outside the capital, got frightened, and passed out."

Tie Kui said with a cold face: "Have you invited a doctor to treat Madam?" He knew Xiao's physical condition best, and he was afraid that something urgent might happen.

Seeing Ah Shao nodding, Tie Kui said: "Go back and tell Steward Zhong that I can't leave, and he has to worry about the affairs of the house."

Thinking of his wife and children far away in Liaodong, Gui Sanliang couldn't bear to see this, and said, "Brother Tie, Mrs. Lai Zun's condition is very serious, you should go back!"

Tie Kui hesitated, but still shook his head: "In this situation, how can I walk away at will."

Seeing this, Gao Dongnan said, "Let's go back! When the rebels come in, you won't be able to go back even if you want to."

"Thank you, General Gao." After speaking, Tie Kui hurried back.

Seeing Tie Kui's hasty pace, Gui Sanliang smiled and said: "It is rumored that General Tie doesn't like his original partner. It seems to be a misunderstanding." Gui Sanliang's wife is his uncle's cousin, and the relationship between husband and wife is very good. Although he loves beauty, he still respects his wife very much.

If it was Yan Wushuang, he would definitely be suspicious, because it was too coincidental. But Gao Dongnan didn't think too much about it: "After all, she is the wife of Jiefa." What's more, the Xiao family also gave birth to two daughters for Tie Kui. Now that your life is in danger, it would be too heartless not to think about it at all. Tie Kui took special care of his brother's family, so how could he really be ruthless towards his married wife.

Gui Sanliang couldn't help but said: "Brother Tie can still see his wife and children, I'm afraid I won't see them again."

Gao Dongnan also fell silent. His wife and children are also in Shengjing. In this life, I will never see you again.

Back home, Tie Kui asked Zhong Shantong: "What must I come back for?"

After listening to Zhong Shantong's words, Tie Kui hummed and said: It must be something very important to make an appointment at this time. "

When I entered the room, I saw the eyes of the two daughters were red and swollen from crying. Seeing Tie Kui, Ruyi couldn't control herself, she cried and said, "Father, the doctor said mother..." She really couldn't say what happened next.

Ruhui also cried a lot.

Tie Kui touched Ruyi's forehead and said softly, "Don't be afraid, your mother will be fine."

Doctor Zhang and Doctor Le all went to Shengjing. This time it was the doctor from Huichuntang who treated Xiao Shi.

The doctor said: "General Tie, if **** doesn't wake up before tomorrow morning, I'm afraid I won't be able to wake up again." Xiao's pulse is intermittent, and his complexion is pale and feeble, as if he died soon look.

Tie Kui said with a cold face: "If the doctor can save my wife, Tie will be very grateful."

The doctor shook his head and said: "The old lady has tried her best." He must be saved if he can be saved, but Xiao's situation is beyond his ability.

The two sisters Ruyi and Ruhui burst into tears when they heard this.

Tie Kui still had to go to Zhao Yuelou, so he didn't have much time to stay at home. Looking at Ruyi, Tie Kui said, "Take care of your mother and younger sister."

Ruyi was a little scared, so she couldn't help calling out: "Father, can you not leave?" With Tie Kui around, she could still feel at ease. If Tiekui is gone, there will be an accident for mother, and there will not even be a caller in the mansion.

Tie Kui shook his head without the slightest hesitation: "No, there is a war going on outside right now, so Dad can't stay at home. Ruyi, if you have anything to do, tell Butler Zhong directly."

Ruyi nodded with red eyes.
