Shen Qiongzhi tried his best to remember, but couldn't remember anything.
At the same time, she had also forgotten what she was shouting when she shook the flagpole desperately. Shen Qiongzhi seemed to have never heard it or shouted. She knew clearly that she was not crazy, but she couldn't figure out why she had forgotten it.
She placed the flag of the Order on the gate tower. The red and white flag swayed in the wind, and at a certain moment, it seemed to be integrated with it.
Turning around and walking down the city wall, Shen Qiongzhi found that there were no soldiers stationed around. He wanted to raise his voice to blame someone, but he soon calmed down.
"Why blame them?"
Forgot, can't remember the specific reason.
Shen Qiongzhi suddenly felt as if he had just arrived in this world, and everything had become strange. In a daze, a wild cat jumped out of the alley.
"Meow!??"
Shen Qiongzhi was so frightened that he picked up the iron melon hammer and tried to smash it.
However, the wild cat actually sat on the ground without moving. It straightened up like a solemn statue on the altar, and then held its head up and yawned contentedly, as if no matter what happened in the world, it had nothing to do with it.
At this time, Shen Qiongzhi realized that she was afraid of something. Her body only exuded an aura of weakness and cowardice, so even if she waved the weapon in her hand, she couldn't even scare away the wild cat.
——In order to pursue the life she wanted, she betrayed the saint Murong Yan.
——Now, she betrays her current life again and chooses to return to the shackles of the Holy Land.
Everything in her memories became Shen Qiongzhi's enemy. She had nowhere to hide. After several struggles, she simply gave up her resistance and became arrogant. She walked slowly to the street, only to hear the cheers of the crowd like the roar of mountains and tsunami. In the middle, there is a white phoenix soaring.
"General Bai Feng." Shen Qiongzhi muttered, looking at the iron melon hammer in his hand. It was this man who gave him the chance to break free. Now, he was ready to take back everything he had given.
Shen Qiongzhi wanted to go back to Zhao's house to see if Zhao Kuo was safe and sound, he would definitely be at Zhao's house now.
In the corner of the street where no one was paying attention, she walked with her head down, thinking that maybe no one knew that she had betrayed everyone by walking up to the city gate to pull up the flag of the religious order.
However, almost all the people in Yuyi Town went in the opposite direction to Shen Qiongzhi, and now no one cares who is the Yuyi Marquis.
Not long after, Shen Qiongzhi saw Huang Yixiao directing his men to empty the house in front of the Zhao family's residence, and stepped forward and asked, "What's going on?"
Huang Yixiao picked up Shen Qiongzhi's face and kissed the oil, which was full of the mutton smell. He laughed and said: "Zhao Kuo was defeated. General Bai Feng came back with the religious group! I won't let the Zhao family do this." Move all the things, and then surrender! This guy Zhao Kuo thinks about pleasing the Rouran people every day. On weekdays, he doesn’t even leave any meat or bones to our brothers in military pay. You ungrateful bitch doesn’t even think about who relieved him back then. The circumference!"
"Where is Zhao Kuo?" Shen Qiongzhi asked.
"In the former Yuyi Academy, Zhao Xiaomei said that even though we are political enemies, we are family members after all. She begged us to save Zhao Kuo's life. Maybe she thought that keeping Zhao Kuo would be a bargaining chip." Huang Yixiao said, and asked Xiaomei to save Zhao Kuo's life. The servant took the stolen property and immediately went to surrender to Bai Feng.
Shen Qiongzhi felt a little at ease when he saw that the person he loved was a betrayer like himself. They went around several times and it was already dark, and finally found out that Bai Feng and Murong Yan were also at Yuyi Academy, so they went to pay a visit.
Yuyi Academy has been in a state of neglect since it was forcibly banned two years ago. However, the servants in the Zhao family's house have left and scattered. There are very few who can stay and share the hardships with Zhao Kuo. They can only For the time being, a clean bed was prepared in the academy for Zhao Kuo, who was seriously injured and unconscious, to sleep. Then Zhao Xiaomei and her former academy disciples guarded the academy to prevent hostile people from approaching.
Although most people in Yuyi Town favored Zhao Xiaomei because she was blessed by the saint, their hatred for the Zhao family would not be relieved much by this.
Countless merchants, officials, soldiers, and Rouran people in the town who had close relations with the Zhao family were all arrested and paraded on the streets. Their property was divided up, and new and old crimes were liquidated. Only a few were ever convicted. Nobles excluded by the mainstream escaped, such as Zang Boyan's family.
Shen Qiongzhi gradually realized that perhaps Zhao Kuo did not go crazy and kidnap all the people in Beizhen to join him in the war out of selfish desires. He was just a representative of his class, how could he do whatever he wanted?
He will get the punishment he deserves.
"What about me?" Shen Qiongzhi said to himself, and unknowingly, he followed Huang Yixiao to Bai Feng and Murong Yan.
I saw Bai Feng wearing pure white armor as seen in the daytime, while Murong Yan wore tattered clothes with scars everywhere on her body.
"Yan'er?" Shen Qiongzhi knelt down and sobbed: "Holy Lady, are you injured?"
Murong Yan shook her head: "This is what I am."
"No matter how ugly the original appearance is, only by accepting it can you not be troubled by the past." Murong Yan walked up to Shen Qiongzhi and held her hand: "Go home, let's go home together, you can choose Anything you want to do.”
Shen Qiongzhi burst into tears. She felt that she remembered something very important.
"That letter."
"That letter was written by you."
"No, you can't forgive me... you can't."
Murong Yan tilted her head and said in confusion: "Uh? What kind of letter?"
Bai Feng, who was sitting on a broken mat in the distance, suddenly roared loudly: "Huang Yixiao! Let your wife stand up!"
Huang Yixiao did as he was told, supported Shen Qiongzhi's leaning body, and comforted him: "Why did you cry suddenly?"
Shen Qiongzhi said: "It was me. Two years ago, it was I who asked the Holy Lady to leave with Sima Tu, which made her look like this... It was me just now, waving the flag of the religious order on the city wall, This caused Zhao Kuo and others to misjudge the situation. I am such a capricious, shameful and miserable bad woman."
"No, isn't it?!" Huang Yixiao panicked, then knelt down and begged for mercy: "Holy Lady, General Bai Feng, we don't want anything, just let us go, and let us lead you for the rest of our lives. The horse can fall and pedal!"
Bai Feng sneered disdainfully: "Don't be arrogant. It was Yan'er's decision at that time. Do you really think you can shake the will of the Holy Lady with just a few words? Also, even if you don't go up and wave the flag, Yuyi Town will be destroyed sooner or later. There will be great chaos, haven’t you seen the people eating pots of pulp and lining up to greet the religious group?”
"It makes sense, it makes sense!" Huang Yixiao relaxed his body as if he had escaped a disaster, and sat slumped on the ground.
After a moment, Bai Feng saw Zhao Xiaomei approaching the door, and immediately ordered: "Huang Yixiao, although you have the title of general, you have been ignored for a long time. Now go back and rectify your subordinates immediately. Don't disturb the common people. Wait until the Central Plains." The coalition forces have launched a major counterattack, and you should follow the religious group to regain Beizhen."
Huang Yi smiled and Shen Qiongzhi looked at Murong Yan reluctantly. The two left one after another. At this time, Zhao Xiaomei finally had the opportunity to meet her old friends.
After explaining Zhao Kuo's unconscious status, Zhao Xiaomei was particularly calm. She said: "Now, our Zhao family has nothing, and we really don't know how to survive."
"Little sister, there must be a way." Murong Yan looked at the undamaged beams above her head and replied, "There is also Yuyi Academy. This is a place that we all built together."
"I really hope I can be as optimistic as Sister Murong." Out of the corner of her eye, Zhao Xiaomei caught a glimpse of a boy wandering outside the door and asked, "Zichai, what happened outside?"
Zi Chai's gray-white long hair had obviously not been carefully taken care of for a long time. It was almost all stuck together and very messy. However, she still walked in very sincerely and said, "I just want to meet Mr. Bai, Miss Murong and Mr. Su." Let me greet you two for him, Mr. Su is busy driving away the gangsters now and can't get away."
"Don't worry, we will stay in Yuyi Town until the academy is rebuilt before leaving." Bai Feng showed a reassuring smile.
