Yan Wushuang Extra Episode (4)
When Zhang woke up, she held Yan Wushuang's hand tightly. Her husband and second son are gone, and now she has only one son left. Youngest son, don't let anything happen again.
Yan Wushuang comforted: "Mother, that news must be false. Mother, don't believe it." The reason why he didn't collapse was because he firmly believed that the news was false.
Mrs. Zhang shook her head and said, "When we returned to Shengjing, your father was so worried that he tossed and turned and couldn't sleep all day long. At that time, I felt something was wrong. Wushuang, Tongcheng must be really broken." Her husband and second son were both killed in battle, she wished she could Now follow along. But no, if her youngest son died, she would become a helpless orphan. And with the paranoid temper of the youngest son, without her by his side, he still doesn't know what will happen.
Therefore, being a mother is strong. Zhang, who looks weak and weak on weekdays, is also very strong at critical moments. Of course, those who can marry into the Yan family will not be really weak.
"Mom, I don't believe it. Dad is so powerful, there is no way Donghu people can be his opponents."
Zhang's tears fell down: "Silly boy, your father can beat the Donghu people with real swords and guns. But it's such a simple thing to fight." What's more, the people of the Song family have always been covetous. This time Tongcheng was breached, and the Song family might be punished for a felony that was unfavorable to the Yan family.
Yan Wushuang didn't understand the meaning of Zhang's words at this time. It was only after several years that he understood his mother's hard work and grief when she said this. In fact, his father and second brother died not at the hands of the Donghu people, but at the hands of the Zhou family and the Song family, which are not as good as pigs and dogs.
No matter what Zhang said, Yan Wushuang did not believe that his father and second brother really died at the hands of Donghu people.
Heartbroken, Zhang embraced Yan Wushuang and said, "Wu Shuang, you are the only mother left. No matter what happens, you must be well, otherwise the Yan family will be wiped out." Tongcheng is broken, and she will not know what will happen in the future. have no idea. However, she will protect her son even if she tries her best.
Yan Wushuang nodded and said: "Mother, don't worry, the baby will be fine, always be fine."
Mrs. Zhang nodded, struggling to get up.
Yan Wushuang held him down and said, "Mother, if you need anything, just tell me."
"Wushuang, your father and second brother are gone, we should arrange funerals for them."
Mrs. Zhang put on filial piety clothes, but Yan Wushuang didn't. Yan Wushuang felt that if he wanted to wear this dress, he would agree that his father and brother were gone, and he felt that these were all lies woven by the Donghu people.
Mrs. Zhang knew that Yan Wushuang was somewhat paranoid, and no one could change what he believed. Unless you really saw the dead bodies of your husband and second son,
Otherwise he wouldn't believe they were gone.
Thinking of her husband and second son, Zhang's tears came again. However, she forced herself to hold back her tears: "Wu Shuang, don't you want your father and second brother to die in peace?"
Yan Wushuang has been holding back, but this time he couldn't take it anymore: "Mother, even if the rumors outside are true, father and second brother were killed in battle. Then we will always find their bodies. There are no corpses. What kind of funeral is going to be done? How can I go to the ground to be safe?"
Hearing this, Mrs. Zhang hugged Yan Wushuang, tears fell like broken beads: "Silly boy, you silly boy..."
They have a deep blood feud with the Donghu people. How could the Donghu people leave the corpses of their husband and second son to them.
The news of Donghu's attack on Tongcheng has not spread, but those big families have their own news channels. Knowing that Tongcheng was broken, they quickly packed up the gold and silver and ran away. The destination, of course, is the capital.
Once these big households run away, the news can no longer be concealed. Shengjing suddenly became a mess.
The housekeeper told Mrs. Zhang about this, and said, "Madam, the people from Donghu may call over in a few days. Madam, you should take the young master and leave here for the capital!"
Mrs. Zhang shook her head and said, "I will not leave Shengjing." She would rather die here than leave.
The big butler said with red eyes: "Madam, if you don't leave the young master, you won't leave either! Madam, the marshal has only one heir left as the young master, so nothing can go wrong." There are also members of the Yan family in the capital, but those with Marshal Yan lived across the room.
Normally, the chiefs guarding the border towns would send their wives and children back to the capital. Firstly, it is safe, and secondly, it also means being a hostage. After Mrs. Zhang gave birth to her second child, she also went to live in Beijing for a while. During that time, she often entered the palace to accompany the queen.
Emperor Guangzong's brain circuit was amazed by ordinary people. After listening to Mrs. Song's pillow talk, he asked Mrs. Zhang to take her eldest son back to Shengjing. After that, Mrs. Zhang never went to the capital again.
Mrs. Zhang shook her head and said: "I will not go to the capital, and Wushuang will not go to the capital either."
The butler is still persuading.
At this time, the maid outside said: "Ma'am, General Zhang is asking to see you." This General Zhang is Marshal Yan's sworn brother. Today, he is the deputy general of the Shengjing Garrison.
Letting him be Shengjing's deputy general was because Marshal Yan was on guard against someone who would shoot sniper shots in his back.
"Please come in, General Zhang."
General Zhang is burly and tall, and his face has been injured. The scar extends from below the temple to the side of the nose. The timid will be frightened when they see him.
When he entered the room and saw Mrs. Zhang dressed in white, General Zhang saluted and said, "Sister-in-law, please mourn."
Mrs. Zhang wiped away her tears and said, "En Ting, do you know everything about your elder brother?"
General Zhang said sadly: "Sister-in-law, that's why I came here. Sister-in-law, Tongcheng has been destroyed, and Shengjing is in danger." Tong Chunlin, the chief general stationed in Shengjing, asked people to open the city gate and let the people in the city leave. Therefore, the city of Shengjing is now a mess.
Knowing Zhang Enting's intentions, Mrs. Zhang said, "Enting, you are also here to persuade me and Wushuang to leave Shengjing and go to the capital."
Zhang Enting shook his head and said, "No, it's just the opposite. Sister-in-law, you and Wushuang can't go to the capital."
"Why?" She didn't want to go to the capital, but from Zhang Enting's words, it seemed that going to the capital would be dangerous.
Mrs. Zhang knew that the chief steward was a die-hard loyalist of the Yan family, so she didn't avoid him, and said directly: "Tongcheng has 200,000 soldiers and horses and occupies a favorable terrain. With eldest brother in charge, it is impossible for the Donghu people to break through Tongcheng." .”
Mrs. Zhang was not stupid, and asked, "En Ting, do you mean that the Yan family army has an inner ghost?"
Zhang Enting clenched his fists and said, "I'm afraid it's not just a simple matter of the ghost."
Mrs. Zhang thought about her husband's worried expression when he returned to Beijing, and blurted out: "It must be the Song family, the beasts of the Song family who colluded with the Donghu people, and then let the Donghu people into Tongcheng. As long as he has an accident, the queen and the prince There is no way to rely on. In this way, the poisonous woman and her son will be able to rise to power."
After finishing speaking, Mrs. Zhang said with hatred on her face: "Just to satisfy their selfish desires, they ignored millions of people in Liaodong. Why didn't God kill these beasts?" They became cattle and sheep in their eyes and were slaughtered by them.
Zhang Enting also had this guess, otherwise he wouldn't have come here to tell Zhang about it.
After hearing this, Zhang Enting looked sad. These soldiers sacrificed their blood to guard the frontier city, but the emperor was so foolishly pampering the treacherous minister and concubine.
Mrs. Zhang finished cursing: "En Ting, the Song family killed your elder brother, and they will definitely not let you go. En Ting, you have to take care of yourself."
Zhang Enting said with a wry smile: "I have called for a fight, and tomorrow I will lead troops to stop the Donghu people."
"En Ting..." Calling for a fight now is tantamount to going to die.
How can Zhang Enting not know what Mrs. Zhang can think of: "Sister-in-law, the emperor and the Song family deserve to die, but the people in Liaodong are innocent." The living beings are in charcoal.
Zhang's heart was in a panic, but she knew she couldn't persuade Zhang Enting. Just like her husband, even though he knew the danger, he never thought of leaving Tongcheng for half a step.
After tens of thousands of words, Mrs. Zhang finally turned it into one sentence: "En Ting, you must come back alive."
Zhang Enting himself couldn't guarantee this, but to reassure Mrs. Zhang, he still said: "Sister-in-law, I will definitely come back alive."
Mrs. Zhang nodded with tears in her eyes.
Zhang Enting hesitated for a while and said: "Sister-in-law, if it is possible, you can take Wushuang and leave Shengjing to find a place that no one knows to avoid the limelight. After the Donghu people are driven away, you will come back."
Mrs. Zhang hummed and said: "When the funeral is over, I will take Wushuang and leave Shengjing temporarily." As for where to go, she hasn't decided yet.
"Sister-in-law, I can't send elder brother off at his funeral."
Before going back, Zhang Enting kowtowed three times to Marshal Xiang Yan's coffin. There was no corpse in the coffin, just some clothes worn by Marshal Yan.
Shengjing was in a mess, those who were desperate for their lives followed the swarm and fled for their lives. However, on the day when the Yan family held a memorial ceremony, many people still came to express their condolences.
Because it was a special situation, Mrs. Zhang planned to have a funeral the next day. The husband and the second son were buried in the earth earlier, and they were at ease earlier.
To mourn, it is natural to ask Yan Wushuang to hold the spirit. Fearing that Yan Wushuang would get angry, Zhang said, "Wushuang, mother dreams that your father and your second brother are still alive. But this is reality, no matter how cruel it is, we have to accept it." Her heart was bleeding all the time, but for She still had to grit her teeth for the younger son.
Yan Wushuang hugged Mrs. Zhang and cried, "Mother..." Even though he kept telling himself that the news was false. But so many people came to express condolences, including many people from the army, he could no longer lie to himself.
Mrs. Zhang grabbed Yan Wushuang's shoulder and said, "Wushuang, wipe away your tears, the men of the Yan family bleed but don't shed tears."
Yan Wushuang quickly wiped away his tears and said, "Mother, don't worry, I will definitely avenge my father and my brothers." His father and his two brothers died at the hands of Donghu people. He will avenge this bloody revenge one day.
Mrs. Zhang nodded and said, "Wu Shuang, Mother believes that you can do it."
The mother and son were talking, when the housekeeper ran in and said, "Madam, young master, it's not good, someone led troops to surround our house."
The mother and son stood up immediately.
