Chapter 76 Chapter 76: Prisoners
The detainees in the prisoner camp here are the family members of the guards of the thirty-six prefectures.Because of their identities as family members of officials, the captives were not tied by ropes. Yu'er rushed to Long Baiyue's side, grabbed her hand and cried, "Sister, the adults in the Medical Bureau have all died for their country..."
"I already know..." Long Baiyue was dejected, and asked Yu'er with some doubts, "How do you get together with these officials' wives?"
"Young Master of the Yan Mansion was ill the night before yesterday. Master Yuan and I rushed there before dawn. We were too busy to leave. In the morning, someone from the palace sent us back, and Master Yuan left me in the Mansion of Hell for the time being," Yu'er Sobbing, "Who knew that I was captured by the swallow thief... How could my sister be here? Could it be that the maids were also captured?"
Long Baiyue shook her head: "I don't know. As for how I came here, well, it's a long story."
"Anyway, it's great to see my sister, I don't know what to do, I'm so scared to death." Yu'er frowned, holding Long Baiyue's hand tightly, as if clutching a life-saving straw.
Long Baiyue smiled wryly—they are both degenerates in Tianya, so reuniting here is not a good thing.She noticed that the family members of the government were divided into several groups, and guessed that the people who gathered together were probably relatives and friends, such as Mrs. He, Mrs. Yan, and the young lady Zhu Li who was holding the child.There are also several strange wives and ladies who are also staying with them. Yu'er is responsible for taking care of Young Master Yan, so naturally she is also there.
Long Baiyue's almond eyes swept around briefly, and finally stopped on the young master in Zhu Li's arms.Young Master Yan was weak and sick, and he followed Mr. Qian and treated his illness together. Seeing that he was still asleep, he couldn't help asking with concern: "Young Master, is he sick again? It doesn't look very good."
Zhu Li shuddered when he heard the words, looked at Long Baiyue in panic, and said in a trembling voice: "Zhong'er has been running a fever and has diarrhea, no one here eats seriously, and they still drink cold water..."
As she spoke, her eyes turned red. Just as she was about to complain to Long Baiyue, Mrs. He on the side stopped her sharply: "Li'er! Don't talk to this bitch!"
The people around were too frightened to make a sound by the sudden curse, even Yan Bing, who was guarding them, was puzzled and secretly looked sideways at the fierce Mrs. He.Mrs. He was as cold as ice, staring at Long Baiyue with disgust, and cursed viciously: "It's all good things done by your concubine—"
Long Baiyue was overwhelmed by her arrogance, and said falteringly: "Zi Mian, he..."
Oops, have to face the blame of others so soon?
"Bah, don't mention that demon way, I wish I could kill him..." Mrs. He wanted to continue scolding, but Zhu Li stopped her.
"Auntie, Auntie, you scared Zhong'er." Zhu Li cried anxiously, and kept comforting the restless and struggling child in her arms, "What should I do, Zhong'er is so burned that he doesn't even have hot water... "
Mrs. He had no choice but to keep silent, but her chest was still heaving with anger.Seeing Long Baiyue cowering aside, she expected her to be ashamed, so she lowered her voice and ordered: "It's all done by your concubine, if you still have the face to live, go and beg for hot water for the sick child."
Long Baiyue's body trembled, and she murmured: "Yan people don't understand what I'm talking about, how can I ask for it... I'm afraid they will be rude..."
"Hmph, don't you come from this kind of background?" Mrs. He looked at Long Baiyue contemptuously, deciding that she should go out to cater to her.
Long Baiyue bit her lip, glanced at the burning child, looked at Mrs. He intently, and said after a while: "I know you don't want to see me, and you will settle all old and new grudges with me. I respect you as Ling Yun Mother, Mrs. He Zhengshi, I don't care about you, but I'm definitely not guilty. I went to ask for water, and I just pity this child."
After finishing speaking, she stood up, crossed her arms and walked towards the Yan soldiers who were standing around, bleak like an autumn leaf in the night.Mrs. He looked at her back, her face was livid with anger - what does this bitch mean by mentioning her husband and son at the same time?She hates this kind of woman the most in her life, hiding in a place where she can't go, enchanting and confusing, how can she not hate it?
Long Baiyue regretted it before taking a few steps, so why be angry?It is neither advancing nor retreating now.The more she went forward, the more she felt that Yan Ren was really tall, as burly as a hill, which made her neck ache when she looked up.It was such a terrifying race, she muttered hesitantly: "This soldier..."
He said hello, but he didn't dare to approach or stay under his feet, slipped around, and finally found a Yanren who didn't look so scary, Long Baiyue timidly leaned forward: "This soldier..."
That Yan man is not very stout, tall and vigorous, he looks like He Lingyun at first glance.He was resting lazily by the tent, watching Long Baiyue approaching, and muttered a string of swallow language casually.Long Baiyue couldn't understand what he said, but all the Yan people around burst into laughter.She had a fever on her face, guessing that this stinky man must be talking nonsense, but she could only bite the bullet and continue to mutter: "Brother Bing, can you give me some hot water?"
Damn it, she actually begged for the mercy of the enemy, she might as well be talking in her sleep.Long Baiyue stared at the Yan man, she didn't understand the color of Yan Jun's uniform, and when she got closer, she saw that this man was dressed differently from others, while speaking, all the Yan soldiers looked at him, as if he was the only one who followed suit, could it be that she actually Looking for a general?
At this moment, as if to confirm Long Baiyue's thoughts, a cheerful and vigorous roar came from a distance. A tower-like Yan soldier had just returned from the western camp after fighting for wine. Holding a large piece of beef and a bucket of fine wine, he obediently ran towards the Yan people in front of Long Baiyue.Babbling a string of Yan language, Yan Bing, who was carrying the wine and meat, looked at Long Baiyue suspiciously, with sharp white teeth showing at the corners of his mouth, which made her fall back a step in fright.
At this moment, the Yan man who was leaning on the tent actually laughed, and uttered a few Chinese characters bluntly, with a strange tone: "You, want, what?"
Long Baiyue was ecstatic, afraid that he would not understand, she said slowly: "Hot water, a child is sick."
The Yan man nodded, waved his hand and gave some instructions, a soldier brought a ladle of hot water, Long Baiyue hurriedly took it with gratitude.The officer-like Yanren cut another piece of beef and handed it to her. She hesitated for a moment, but after thinking about it, she still accepted it, but just as she caught the beef, her chin was hooked frivolously by the Yanren's oily hands.
Amidst Yan Bing's roar of laughter, she ran away hastily, and the hot water splashed out and scalded her hands, causing her heartache.Long Baiyue was extremely ashamed and angry, but she could only hold the hot water and meat, gritted her teeth, turned around and ran back, avoiding the officer's interested gaze.
Long Baiyue ran back as if fleeing, handed the hot water and beef to Zhu Li, and sat alone on the side swallowing his anger.Her lips trembled slightly, and a thin layer of tears slowly floated on her stubborn eyes, making the black in her pupils so full that it seemed to overflow, but the tears suddenly dried up in the next moment.Mrs. He watched all this coldly, and remained silent.
"Your plan is not clever at all," Cui Xu sneered coldly, "You even summoned us through the Dao Lu Academy, is it fun to be the emperor?" Zi Mian smiled slightly, looked at her senior brother who was always at odds with her, and retorted: "It's not really enjoyable, I didn't expect that master and senior brother didn't go far at all, and came here so soon." "You—" They obviously came back after finishing their work, Cuixu's expression was extremely ugly, "That's Master's clever plan, otherwise you wouldn't be able to find us even if you searched all over the world." Of course Zi Mian knew their intentions, and her tone became serious: "I understand. Senior brother, you and I have been fighting martial arts since we were young, and you should know me best. How many strategies can I have? I am just a Taoist priest who can divination and alchemy You are obviously afraid of losing, but you insist on making a gesture that you don't want to win. On the surface, you are clean and inactive, but you are not as frank as you are." "You're going to retreat now..." Cuixu hated, but turned his eyes away in embarrassment, "I can't think of any good way, but why do you ask for trouble? Last summer when you were five-star You should have seen it too, Taibaijin is so dim." "Yes, I saw it." Zi Mian lowered her eyes in response. There is a saying in "Yisi Zhan": Taibai's main soldier is a general, for power, for cutting off, and for killing, so he must occupy Taibai with troops... Small and ignorant, the army is defeated and the country is destroyed... At that time, he thought that as long as he cursed Once the technique is completed, it may be able to change the destiny of the country, but people can't control the destiny at all. "Then you should know that many things cannot be changed at all, and you have done enough." "Brother, don't make excuses for me. How many people would look at the world like this?" Zi Mian thought it was funny, their senior brothers shouldn't be so harmonious, they were so awkward, "Whether the country is doomed or not, I opened the city gate , I am a sinner. What's more, I participated in the dispute out of selfishness. If I hadn't decided to retaliate, I would definitely go against the sky and try my best to save the country at this moment. In the face of the country's peril, no matter how thoroughly you see it, you shouldn't stay out of it, let alone treason. To do so is to betray, I didn’t go against my will at the time, and I don’t whitewash it now.” "Stop talking about big things with me," Cuixu asked him impatiently, "Tell me, how much do you plan to save?" "All the children under the age of fifteen among the captives, no matter how old they are..." Zi Mian frowned and sighed, "After you took the boat out to sea, you went south to cover Concubine Tong's mother and son to find Lord Lu. The children have relatives in the south who are the most Well, if there are unaccompanied people, you still need to take care of them." "Because of your incident, the Shangqing Palace will probably be smashed." Cuixu Zhiyi teased, "Forget it, this year I will at least recruit another group of apprentices." Zi Mian calmed down, got up with a smile and walked out: "Thank Master for helping me... Now I can only do my best, saving one is one..." Cuixu raised his eyebrows, and watched Zimian leave thoughtfully.He never thinks about the consequences when he does things himself, and now seeing his junior brother busy with the aftermath, he just feels tired and flustered.The sense of responsibility is really a ridiculous thing, but which book did Zi Mian learn it from? It is widely rumored that no one dares to approach the haunted Cuiying Hall. When Zi Mian arrived at Cuiying Hall through the secret passage of the imperial study, she saw Tong Tong holding the child and half leaning on the gums.When he was wandering alone in Cuiying Hall, he discovered the secret passage connecting the imperial study, and only then realized the secret of Cuiying Hall, so he deliberately hid Tong Tong's mother and son here. Tong Tong looked up and saw that Zi Mian was coming, his eyes lit up, he hurriedly sat up straight and whispered shyly: "Master Zi Mian..." "Are you feeling better?" Zi Mian sat down beside her, looked at the sleeping baby in the swaddle while feeling her pulse, and said apologetically, "Actually, I shouldn't have moved you so early, it's not good for your health." "Where is it, Tong Tong may not be able to repay Master Zi Mian's kindness..." Concubine Tong Xian's right wrist was held by Zi Mian, and her face turned red as she spoke. Zi Mian didn't pay attention to her expression, she just looked at his younger brother carefully, took out a thing from her bosom after feeling the pulse, and handed it to Tong Tong. "What is this?" Tong Tong weighed a heavy object in his hand, opened it and saw that it was the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom.She was startled, and hurriedly raised her head to look at Zi Mian: "Master Zi Mian, this..." "Master Lu from Jiangning Mansion is someone worthy of entrustment. I will find a way to send Concubine Concubine Xian to the south in the next two days. As long as I find him, the south side has not yet fallen, and I will gather people every other day to try to revive it." Zi Mian caressed the baby's rosy cheeks With a small face and soft eyes, there was a taste of farewell, "Master Lu will definitely assist him, and... many people will grow up with him..."
