$160, Bandit Emperor (6) (1/2)

Almost as soon as the Miaocheng soldiers broke in, the girls in the flower building were frightened out of their courage. Now it was time to rest during the day. The girls in the building were hiding in their respective rooms, while the servants were running for their lives in all directions, waiting for the second attack. At the front, he directly grabbed a servant who was about to kneel down with fear on his face.

"Where is the person in charge here!"

"Upstairs, upstairs, sir, please don't kill me, don't kill me..."

The servant almost fainted from fright. He was picked up like a little chicken. He was so anxious and frightened that he could hardly breathe.

Hou Er didn't care to look at his appearance, and threw him directly on the ground, "Take me to find him!"

The servant on the ground climbed up a few times and got up with difficulty. He did not dare to say anything else and timidly led the way.

Upstairs, in the side room at the far side, under the wide tablecloth, Ya'er carefully protected the girl in her arms and quietly poked her head to look outside.

Quietly, nothing happened.

"Little one, listen. You hide here and don't move. Sister, go out and take a look."

Ya'er once heard from an older girl in the building that when the Huns invaded the Jin Kingdom, they killed them wherever they went. I heard that when Guancheng was breached, the people hid in their homes and did not dare to go out. The Xiongnu were so violent that they burned the houses one by one, watching helplessly as the Jin people were burned to death in the houses.

Although what was shouted outside just now was that the Miao City Army was coming in, no one was sure whether they would set fire to the house like the Huns did.

If it really burned down, this house would no longer be able to hide.

Thinking that she still had Xiaoyi to protect, the girl with a somewhat immature face showed determination in her eyes. She lifted the tablecloth and was about to go out, but her clothes were firmly grasped by a pair of small hands.

"Sister Ya'er, don't go."

The child who was less than six years old had tears in his eyes, and he had to hold back his sobs, so he spoke intermittently, "There are bad people outside...sister, don't go out..."

"Be good, little one, don't make any noise."

Ya'er wiped the tears on her face, squeezed out a comforting smile, and gently touched the head of the little girl in front of her, "What sister taught you, do you remember?"

Xiao Yi nodded while crying, and put his little hand on his mouth, covering it tightly to prevent himself from making any sound.

She was young, and not long after she was sent to the flower house, she couldn't help but cry when she was scolded or beaten. When she cried, the original beatings became more severe.

Ya'er herself came from Hualou at about the same age and knew these management methods. Every time she saw Xiao Yi crying, she would coax her to stop crying. As long as she didn't cry, she would be beaten less in the future.

The little girl covered her mouth tightly and watched with tearful eyes as Sister Ya'er, who had been protecting her, carefully walked out from under the table, feeling scared and desperate in her heart.

Although she is young, she has learned some things after staying in this devil's cave for a month, and she knows that bad people are coming to the city.

If sister Yaer goes out, she may not be able to come back.

When she thought of this, her tears flowed even more fiercely.

She missed her mother, her grandmother, and wanted to go home...

Ya'er quietly left the table without making any sound. This was the result of seven years of practice.

When they first came to Hualou, the young ones like them were assigned to deliver things everywhere. If they made a big noise and made the guests unhappy, they would be slapped on the hand at least, or they would have their pants taken off and beaten in front of everyone. Bloody and bloody.

She saw it twice, and then she had nightmares all night long. From then on, no matter how tired she was, no matter how much she wanted to cry, she would not cry or make a sound. She would quietly wait for her menstruation to come, and then put up a sign to pick up customers. .

Ya'er was not afraid of receiving guests. After seeing her mother die in front of her eyes and being sent to the flower house, she knew that she could no longer escape.

If you want to leave the flower house, you have to be like the ladies in front of you, work hard to serve the guests, and save enough money to redeem yourself. Although you may have to stay in your thirties, as long as you can get out of this flower house, it seems that you can It’s not so hard to accept anymore.

She had just had her menarche, and was assigned to a small room. The sign had just been put up, and before she could receive her first guest, the Miaocheng rebellion ushered in.

The window was closed, Ya'er huddled behind carefully, opened the window little by little, and tentatively poked her head out to see.

Downstairs, there was a huge crowd of people standing there.

Wearing the same clothes, holding the same saber in his hand, and carrying an awe-inspiring aura, someone seemed to notice something and looked up. His eyes were as sharp as a sword. Ya'er was so frightened that her heart stopped for a beat. , like a little rabbit, he suddenly retracted his head.

"Ziyu, what's wrong? Is there anything there?"

The people standing next to the young man saw him looking up and looked over, but all they saw were closed windows.

"nothing."

Qing Ziyu responded, stood upright, and looked away.

"Tell me, sir, why did they come here as soon as they entered Yunzhou? They didn't let us follow them. My Lord doesn't look like someone who is looking for fun."

"Silence."

Qing Ziyu's voice deepened, "Is it something we can talk about how your lord behaves?"

The man regretted what he said, stretched out his hand and slapped himself in the mouth, "I'm the one with the bad mouth."

Who doesn't know that Qing Ziyu was rescued from prison by the master and is loyal to the master. If he talks about the master in front of Ziyu, isn't that asking for scolding?

However, this man also had an adventurous temper. After being quiet for a while, he couldn't help but whisper again, "Ziyu, you said we finally conquered Yunzhou, why do you want to open the city gate wide and let the people come in and out?" ah?"

"By then everyone will be gone, and it won't be interesting if we hold an empty city."

"Since people can leave, of course they can also come back."

Qing Ziyu looked into the flower building, his slightly upward peach blossom eyes full of admiration, "My lord never does useless work. He opens the city gate wide and allows the people to come in and out. Naturally, some people will come back." grasp."

Iron cavalry enters the city, burning prostitutes, robbing, and committing all kinds of evil. Naturally, the people will desperately want to escape.

But their Miao Cheng army never disturbed the people since they entered the city. They did not touch the people's property or touch the people's houses. They even opened the city gate. Everything was like before Yunzhou broke the city. No, compared to before the city was broken. Even better than before.

Maybe at first some people were frightened and fled for their lives, but when they knew that the others who stayed in Yunzhou had no losses, who would be willing to leave their homes?

Inside the house, the sweating madam was so frightened that her calves were trembling, and she led the way with weak legs.

"There is a girl in the courtyard named Ya'er. She just put up a sign and changed her name. I wonder if she is the one the official is looking for...ah!!"

She was suddenly lifted up, and in front of her was a strong man with red eyes like a devil. Hou Er had a cold face, and his eerie voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, "You asked her to pick up the guests. ?”

"No no!!!"

The madam's whole body was trembling, and she quickly denied it, "You've just put up the sign, and you haven't had time to pick up the guests yet. She's still innocent. Lord, please calm down, Lord..."

"alright."

She was so frightened that she didn't know what to do when she heard a magnetic and steady voice. A handsome man with a heroic face and a white armor patted the shoulder of the devil who was holding her.

"It's important to find Ya'er first. She should be scared now. Take her back as soon as possible."

Yes, Ya'er is the most important.

Regardless of whether she is innocent or not, she is still his daughter. He must take her back to his side, choose a good husband, and marry her off in style.

The hatred in Hou Er's eyes slowly disappeared, and he put down the hand holding the madam, "Yes, sir."

The madam took them all the way to the small house on the far side, "Master, this is it, Ya'er lives here."

After she finished speaking flatteringly and fearfully, she stepped forward and knocked on the door, "Ya'er, open the door quickly, it's me..."

There was no movement inside. The madam pushed the door a few times but did not open it. She was afraid that the two officials would be angry, so she suggested, "Why don't you break the door open?"

"Sister Ya'er..."

Xiao Yi huddled in the girl's arms, his big eyes full of fear.

"Shh..."

Ya'er looked around and carried the little girl in her arms to the bottom of the bed, "Get in and don't make any sound."

She was so frightened that tears welled up in her eyes. She told Xiao Yi in a choked voice, "No matter what you hear, don't come out. You have to wait until no one is outside, then run out quietly. Do you understand?"

The little girl hid under the dark bed and looked at her sister who had been protecting her outside. She cried and nodded, "Xiaoyi remembers it."

After Ya'er blocked the box outside to ensure that she couldn't see inside, she walked towards the door step by step with fear.

She opened the door and saw the madam outside, "Mom, I..."

"Ya'er!"

Hou Er, wearing a suit of armor, saw her.

It's almost the same as in memory, just a little older.

He finally found it.

His daughter!

He stepped forward excitedly, his expression even ferocious because of his excitement, "Ya'er, Ya'er, dad has been here..."

"--ah!!"

"Don't come here, go away!"

Even though she was prepared before opening the door, the girl who was originally too nervous still subconsciously screamed and hid when she saw such a tall, strong man with a knife approaching her with a fierce look.

The stories told by the Hualou sisters about how the Huns dealt with the Jin girls rang in my mind.

The calmness that he had been trying to maintain finally collapsed when things came to a head.

"Ya'er, I'm dad..."

Hou Shou looked helplessly at the daughter in front of him who was crying and screaming desperately to escape from him, his eyes suddenly turned red.

"I, don't you remember dad? I am dad..."

The screams silenced Hou Er's voice. This man, who had been secretly criticized by his brothers, faced his frightened daughter and didn't know where to put his hands and feet, let alone come up with a way to comfort her.

Just as he was asking the assistant to explain clearly, a childish voice filled with anger came out.

"You are not allowed to bully sister Ya'er!"

The little girl who had been hiding obediently under the bed heard Ya'er's scream, and finally couldn't help it. She struggled to push the box open and got out. She opened her little arms and stood between Hou Er and Ya'er.

Wei Mingyan looked at such a little bean standing here who didn't even reach his thighs, and walked directly in front of her.

"Little guy, you are quite loyal."

A pair of slender hands directly hugged her entire small body. Xiao Yi's desperate struggle looked like a joke to Wei Mingyan. He gently restrained the little girl in his arms and said, "Look, that's you. How could Sister Ya'er's biological father bully her?"

When the madam heard this, her eyes lit up. She suppressed the fear in her heart and her legs became weak. She rushed over and hugged the frightened girl, "Ya'er, Ya'er, don't be afraid. , your father is here to find you."

"Look, that's your dad, do you still recognize him?"

father……?

The girl whose thoughts were in chaos finally heard these words. Her eyes gradually sobered up, and her eyes full of tears looked at Hou Er timidly and in disbelief.

"Ya'er...don't you remember dad?" Hou Er's eyes turned red and he carefully took out a headband from his arms.

"When dad was leaving, didn't you tell him to buy you a headband when he came back?"

"Look, I bought it, I bought it back..."

The dark red headband fell into Ya'er's eyes.

She looked at Hou Er in a daze, her eyes filled with tears, and her voice was hoarse, "Dad..."

Ya'er ran over and ran into his arms.

Hou Er stiffened his hands, tears fell, and patted her back gently.

Just like when Hou Er came back from the fields when she was a child, she would act coquettishly and want to eat the wild fruits he brought from the mountain. At that time, Hou Er would deliberately tease his daughter and lift the fruits to a height that was out of her reach. Watching her tiptoeing to reach but unable to reach, I laughed.

Ya'er couldn't reach the fruit and was so angry and fussy that she burst into tears. Then Hou Er became anxious and hurriedly gave the fruit to his daughter before his wife came back. He hugged her and coaxed her, "Don't do it." Don't cry, your mother will say something about me when she sees it later..."

Now, his daughter is still crying like a child, and he is coaxing her like before.

However, there is no longer a mother-in-law who scolds her for making her daughter cry again.

"Ya'er, don't be afraid..."

Hou Er patted his daughter's back gently, "Dad is back."
