Chapter 78 Chapter 78: Going North
The Yan army began to evacuate northward in the early morning. When Long Baiyue got out of the tent, she glanced anxiously at the prisoners outside the tent, and walked with them silently with her head down.
A little change occurred among the prisoners overnight. The young women who walked in front of the line accepted the care of the soldiers calmly, and some of them were even hugged by them on their horses.The elderly ladies at the back of the line looked at them with pain or sadness; the young women who did not give in paid more attention to their words and deeds, ignoring the coveting and coveting of the swallows, and just walked with their heads bowed tremblingly.
No one paid attention to Long Baiyue, she first walked casually for a while alone, and finally couldn't help but slow down and meet Yu'er at the end of the line.Yu'er was putting her shoulders on Zhu Li's shoulders and walking forward step by step, Long Baiyue simply leaned forward and bent over to pick up Zhu Li who was sick and drowsy.
Yu'er hurriedly helped Zhu Li to support her, and mumbled, "Sister, this is very heavy..."
"Let's talk when your back is tired." Long Baiyue took a breath, adjusted her steps and walked very carefully.
Mrs. He has been walking beside them. She was so angry in the first half of the night yesterday, but she was disheartened in the second half of the night.Their dignity will be deprived sooner or later, but they should never be defeated in such an absurd way.When Long Baiyue approached them, she originally wanted to ridicule the smell of sheep on her body, and then scolded her, pointing at Sang and scolding Huai, but she didn't smell that disgusting smell on Long Baiyue's body.
Mrs. He couldn't help raising her eyebrows suspiciously, her sharp eyes looked at Long Baiyue thoughtfully.She couldn't believe that the self-esteem of the decent ladies who had been praised by her in the past was as fragile as their skin, why is this firework girl insisting on it now?
Mrs. He is very proud of the qualities and teachings that make people steadfast. If a prostitute can do as well as her, what should she doubt?
——Hasn’t the high and low levels of people been divided according to their birth grades in the early morning?She never really treated the people below her as human beings, because no matter on any level, they are not worthy to be equal to her...
Long Baiyue had been waiting for Mrs. He to start scolding - couldn't she even touch Zhu Li's little finger?Not to mention the large contact area of the back to the chest at this moment!This thought was like a thorn in her back. After a long time, she couldn't help raising her head, only to find that Mrs. He wasn't looking at her at all.Her expression was tense, as if she was thinking about a serious problem, and her steps were crisp and neat, one could imagine the decisiveness of killing when she was the head of the house.
Forget it, it's rare that Mrs. He doesn't target her, why is she still thinking about making mistakes, Long Baiyue carried Zhu Li on her back and continued to walk hard.She had carried Zi Mian before, and now she carried Zhu Li who was thin and thin. When she was the oiran, she was more plump and energetic than other girls, which is not a bad thing.
When the army walked to the noon break, Long Baiyue was already sweating profusely.Autumn is cool in August, and when the sun is high at noon, people are still flustered. Long Baiyue fetched water by the well to wash his face, and then he walked back to Yu'er and sat down comfortably.Mrs. He on the side glanced at her, and suddenly raised her hand to greet her face.Long Baiyue was startled, and just about to call out, she found that Mrs. He was just rubbing her cheeks with her fingers.
"Still showing off here, for fear that people won't see your charming appearance?" Mrs. He said in a nasty voice, and she used her fingers to pinch the loess to paint Long Baiyue's fair face dirty.
In the past two days, the bruises on Long Baiyue's face had disappeared, and her original charming appearance was revealed again. She had just washed her face and walked all the way, already catching the greedy eyes of many Yan Bing.She accepted Mrs. He's kindness in a daze, a little confused, but also a little happy.
Mrs. He looked at Long Baiyue's smiling face coldly, and there was a hint of naivety in her agility. She thought of the sins committed by that monster, Zi Mian, who had clearly tortured this woman. If it was someone else, she might have gone crazy a little earlier. This time, she was the only one who was still radiant, not only did not feel depressed, but instead took care of others.
It's not that she doesn't appreciate her, but more emotions in her heart come from sadness - Mrs. He turned her face away, threw the dust left in her hands into the air, and looked into the distance with eyes full of hatred.
The hatred lost its target, so he could only hold it in his heart and had nowhere to vent it.Mrs. He's anger quickly found a breakthrough again. Her sharp eyes swept over those women who succumbed to the Yan people, making them feel like sitting on pins and needles holding bread, biscuits and cheese...
"Master Zi Mian..." Tong Tong held the child and looked at Zi Mian hesitantly, "Do you want to stay in the capital?"
"No, I will go north." Zi Mian handed Tong Tong a roll of roster, seeing her panic, and comforted her, "The child is still too young, although Jiangnan is rich and easy to gather power, but I will stay in the north to contain Yan. Wang, it may be more beneficial to him. Besides..."
What's more, the divination line shows that Baiyue is in the north.He has to find her.
Tong Tong looked at Zi Mian who was smiling gently, and lowered his head sadly, staring at the child in his arms absent-mindedly.
She knew what would happen to Zi Mian if he went to the south. Now in the eyes of the world, he is the culprit of subjugation who colluded with the Yan people, and the whole world wants to punish him.No matter how good he is to himself...only he knows his kindness...
"My lord, no one in the world will protect you today, but if one day I can be alone, you can just come to the south with peace of mind, my lord..." Tong Tong blushed and raised his head courageously.
Zi Mian smiled and didn't answer her.
She lowered her head in disappointment, and covered her panic and depression by flipping through the roster, but the list that jumped into her eyes made her even more frightened: "What is this..."
"The list of collaborators. It's ridiculous to say that when Kou Kou signed a contract with King Yan, I realized how many people in the court can be used by me. That number is much more than the people I have come into contact with before."
In fact, this country has long been hollowed out.
"So many names... I'm familiar with these few..." Tong Tong buried his scroll in thought, and suddenly said after a while, "I will keep the roster of my lord, and I... I won't tell Master Lu all the people on the roll, In order to prevent adults from being troubled in the north."
"Thank you." What he is doing now is enough to make him suffer. King Yan is definitely not a fool, how could he not see the tricks in it.Zi Mian got up and said goodbye to Tong Tong: "My master and brother will come to take care of Concubine Xian, so let's say goodbye."
He must go back to the north, to dispel King Yan's doubts, and protect his younger brother as much as possible; he must go back to the north, because the window dust is still there; he must go back to the north, he has to find her...
Yan Jiang Yuanyi's brown eyes were fixed on Zi Mian, facing his innocence, his thick eyebrows were furrowed suspiciously: "Your Majesty, the general has searched many times, and no one among the soldiers has hidden the jade seal. "
"Is that so?" Zi Mian nodded, comforting him in Yan language, "it's not good if things keep procrastinating like this. In fact, I have already thought about it. Now that the people in the court are in panic, my ability is limited, and I can't control the country... ..."
"The sage is too modest." Yuan Yi's heart moved, and he replied cautiously.
"Whether I'm too modest or not, I know in my heart." Zi Mian calmly passed him and walked to the outside of the Jinluan Hall, "Please general to report to King Yan. Zi Mian will go to see him soon after the affairs of the capital are settled."
"Sister—sister——" Yu'er cried out loudly, Long Baiyue hurriedly searched for it, and found that a few Yan soldiers were surrounding Yu'er frivolously not far away, she rushed up immediately, While roaring, he pulled Yu'er out of Yan Bing's hairy hands. The soldiers knew that Long Baiyue was currently under the command of the officer, and they didn't dare to embarrass her, so they laughed and let Yu'er go.Yu'er was still in shock, crying out of breath.Long Baiyue stared at those hooligans viciously, but there was nothing she could do. Even the emperor and prince are imprisoned in the front camp, who will give them these prisoners dignity? "I'll accompany you if you want to relieve yourself later, don't cry." Long Baiyue reached out to help Yu'er wipe away her tears. At night, Long Baiyue was escorted into the tent again. As soon as she entered the tent, she said to the officer viciously: "My lord, your subordinates are acting recklessly again. What about your strict military orders?" "Call me Guan Ye again? Didn't I say that you can call me Qiu Wu?" The officer named Qiu Wu lazily leaned on the makeshift kang, rubbing his foot impatiently against his own. Boots, want to take it off. "I don't want to get acquainted with you, sir." Annoyed, Long Baiyue stepped forward to help, so bitter that Qiu Dachou held the boots and pulled the boots out of his legs. "You don't want to be familiar with me," Qiu Wu sighed comfortably, and moved up the body that was about to slide off the kang, so that Long Baiyue had room to take off the other one, "Then why do you want me to do things?" Long Baiyue threw her boots on the ground, put her hips on her hips and said angrily, "I don't ask you, do you just let them harass us like this?" "Harassment can't be escaped. You can't let my subordinates not have any sweetness." Qiu Wu put his hands behind his head and lay down comfortably, "It's just harassment, not rape." "Of course there is no need to rape, they have mutton as bait." Long Bai Yue Chi was cold. "If you can be seduced, is it worthy of your pity?" Qiu Wu sat up and stared at her, "However, it seems that coaxing doesn't work for certain people, and it's better to be raped." Long Baiyue took a cautious step back and stared at him closely.Qiu Wu grinned without moving, "Does it mean that if I move casually now, you will rush out like a silly roe deer?" Long Baiyue was startled, not knowing what to answer.At this time, she heard Madam He shouting and cursing again outside the tent, she turned around and walked to the edge of the tent, and saw Madam He yelling at a girl guarding the sleeping Zhu Li in the dim light of the fire. Qiu Wu walked off the kang with bare feet, came behind Long Baiyue, and lazily said disapprovingly: "This old aunt, why should you be so tit-for-tat-it will only push yourself into an isolated situation." "You don't know, she is scolding her own daughter," Long Baiyue frowned, "That girl is a concubine of the He family. Madam He hates her depravity the most, and has scolded her many times." At this time, I heard the girl crying like crazy: "Why are you yelling, are you afraid that others will not know that I am shameless?! You have been scolding me like this since you were a child-so everyone is ashamed today, and you must let you pretend to be arrogant all day long... ..." Following Madam He, she also roared angrily, full of deep-seated hatred.Long Baiyue opened her eyes wide in the tent, and exclaimed: "How can this be done!" She was anxious to run out, but Qiu Wu held her back: "You don't need to go out, it's good to teach her a lesson." In the flames, the other captives hid quietly in the corner.The girl's crazily shouting, Yan Bing's crazily heckling, and Mrs. He's screaming screams made the scene in the camp weird and terrifying.Instigated by the scolded girl, several Yan soldiers smiled and bullied her, not for lust, but just to humiliate her, and worked together to tear Mrs. He's filial piety.The slit in the front was so long that it was pulled down obliquely, and one sleeve had been torn off, revealing a well-maintained snow-white arm.Mrs. He pulled out the iron hairpin from her bun, and slashed fiercely at the hand that was stretched out to grab her inner garment.However, more hands came up, and with a squeak, her back collar was torn open again.She waved the sharp hairpin in her hand with disheveled hair, screaming and cursing frantically, the fire in her eyes seemed to be burning with hatred. "Tell them to stop!" Long Baiyue anxiously tugged Qiu Wu's hand to control her - she had seen what kind of stubborn Mrs. He was, and if this continued, there would definitely be trouble. "At this age, do you still regard chastity as your life?" Qiu Wu felt that Long Baiyue made a fuss, "It's no big deal, she has to learn to shut up, otherwise she will never survive in Yanjing. What do you care about her?" , I remember she beat and scolded you." "No—" How could she ignore it, it was Ling Yun's mother, "You save her, I..." She promised him everything... Could she promise him everything?Just at that moment of hesitation, Yu'er screamed, and Yan Bing's uproar stopped abruptly.Qiu Wu Zigao also saw it clearly, he loosened Long Baiyue's hands weakly, and was speechless in a daze. Long Baiyue rushed out like crazy, pushed aside the crowd, rushed forward and knelt down.She covered the iron hairpin on Madam He's heart with trembling hands, but blood kept oozing out from between her fingers.Madam He, who was lying in a pool of blood, was very happy. Her eyebrows, which were always slender but stern like iron wires, were completely stretched out in front of Long Baiyue for the first time, and they were as bright as a new moon. "This iron hairpin...for today..." Mrs. He stared straight into the air, her voice was so low that it was almost suppressed by the panting of her throat.Blood flowed from the corner of her mouth, and she whispered with difficulty: "Bai Yue..." Long Baiyue covered her crying, and leaned her head closer to Mrs. He's lips. "Seeing Xiang'er... Even if he dies, he will avenge the country's hatred..." After Madam He confessed with hatred, she slowly closed her eyes, but at the last moment, she tried her best to open them again, "No...you don't want him any more. ...live well..."
"Sister—sister——" Yu'er cried out loudly, Long Baiyue hurriedly searched for it, and found that a few Yan soldiers were surrounding Yu'er frivolously not far away, she rushed up immediately, While roaring, he pulled Yu'er out of Yan Bing's hairy hands.
