Xianyue quickly helped Huang sit down with an arrow in her shoulder, and said nervously: "Concubine Yi, how are you?"
Huang was so painful that she broke out in a cold sweat, and reluctantly said: "It hurts... it hurts so much. Madam, my concubine... will... will I die?"
"No, it's just an arrow in the shoulder. It'll be fine. Just be patient." Xianyue put a few pieces of handkerchief together and asked A Luo to press the place where Huang was hit by the arrow to prevent too much blood flow.
many.
Zhao Hui stomped his feet in annoyance, and Hong Zhou came over to hold his hand and said, "Don't shoot again. This time I hurt Concubine Yi, and I don't know who I will hurt next time."
"Your Majesty, what should we do? We can't delay it any longer!" In fact, many of the rebels from the Tiandihui were injured, some were covered in blood, and a few died, but they didn't seem to feel anything.
Just the same, still culling and blocking is a completely injurious method, but it is indeed very effective and has prevented them from getting forward until now.
At this time, the situation changed again. Seeing that their own casualties were increasing, the rebels had been unable to kill Hongli, so they actually attacked Ling Ruo and others. These people did not understand martial arts like Hongli.
, was caught at once, besides Ling Ruo, there were also Concubine Yu and Xia Yue!
The troupe leader shouted: "Emperor Dog, if you don't let them stop, I will kill your so-called Queen and these two people."
Ling Ruo and Xia Yue were both controlled by the rebellious party. Hongli did not dare to take risks and quickly ordered the guards to stop. The theater that was filled with the sound of fighting just now became extremely quiet, so quiet that he could only hear the rain falling.
voice.
Hongli covered his wound and said nervously: "Don't mess around. This place is surrounded. You can't escape. It's better to release them quickly so that I can spare your lives."
An actor with a painted face sneered: "If we let them go, we will really lose our lives."
"What do you want?" Facing Hongli's words, the troupe leader said coldly: "It's very simple, we want your life!"
A Gui shouted sharply: "You are so presumptuous that you simply don't know how to live or die!"
Hongli signaled Agui not to say more, and said: "Do you think that by killing me, you can 'reverse the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty'? The previous Ming Dynasty has been dead for more than a hundred years, and the foundation of the Qing Dynasty is not something you can do."
Shaken."
The troupe leader said excitedly: "The Ming Dynasty has never been destroyed. As long as we can drive you Tatars out, we can restore our country!"
Hong Zhou stared at them and said: "Actually, it doesn't matter whether the emperor is a Manchu or a Han. The most important thing is to give the people a stable and prosperous life so that they are not oppressed by corrupt officials. The emperor's southern tour is for this purpose.
Inspect the public sentiment and see if the people are suffering. Listen to me and let the Queen Mother go immediately, and don’t make any more mistakes."
The troupe leader sneered and said, "What you say is better than what you sing. How do you check the sentiments of the people? That's the case..." He looked at Chong De, who was huddled behind Agui, and said coldly: "Why is this corrupt official still here?"
Zhong De's face changed, and he stuck his head out and said tremblingly: "You dare to rebel against the traitors, don't slander others, I have always been honest, why is this word greedy?!"
"You are not only greedy, but you are also very happy with your achievements. In order to welcome this dog emperor, you did not let the people take to the streets the day before he came, so as not to damage the streets you had sprinkled with water. In addition, you also recruited migrant workers on a large scale
, build a palace,
As a result, they didn't pay any wages, and they didn't even care about a full meal, so many people worked hungry. If they were slow, they would be beaten by the cadres. They deserved to die!" The more he spoke, the angrier he became, with a ferocious look on his face.
, I wish I could kill Zou De.
Chong De turned pale at what he said and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, don't listen to his nonsense. There is absolutely no such thing. I have always kept in mind the Emperor's teachings and loved the people like sons."
Hongli did not look at him and said to the troupe leader: "Even if you don't tell me about this matter, I also know that although I have been inspecting the river works these days, I have sent officials and princes to investigate the evil spirits. I will wait until the evidence of the crime is complete."
He will be dismissed from office and held accountable."
Hongli's words made Chongde weak all over. He was bent on pleasing Hongli. Unexpectedly, Hongli was not only ungrateful, but also secretly sent someone to investigate him. It's over. Everything is over this time, not to mention promotion. He can't even keep his support.
.
Xianyue felt the knife held on her neck tremble. Knowing that Hongli's words touched their minds, she quickly said: "The emperor is a good emperor who loves his people like his own son. If you hurt him, you will definitely become
Sinners through the ages; as for corrupt officials, do you dare to say that they did not exist before the Ming Dynasty?"
The troupe leader gritted his teeth and said: "We will not believe your sweet words. No matter what, the Tatar Emperor deserves to die." After that, he stared at Hongli and said: "Emperor Dog, should you die yourself or your mother-in-law?
If a concubine dies, you should think clearly about it yourself?!"
Hongli said with a gloomy expression: "I will give you one last chance, let the Queen Mother and others go, and I will ensure that you leave safely!"
The man who held Concubine Yu hostage sneered: "It seems you want them dead. Okay, then we will kill the old woman first, and then the remaining two." After that, he moved the blade closer to Yu.
The latter was panicked and frightened because of the concubine's skin, but the man held her tightly and she could not escape.
Hong Zhou's face changed drastically and he said urgently: "Don't hurt my mother-in-law."
The man smiled sinisterly and said: "You killed many of our brothers just now, and now you are taking revenge on your mother-in-law. Okay, that's great!"
Concubine Yu's face turned pale and she closed her eyes. The coldness seeped into her skin, as if her throat would be cut at any time and she would stop breathing.
It was a matter of concern for the safety of his loved ones. Hong Zhou was so anxious that he was in a panic. Hong Li said coldly: "If you hurt Princess Yu, you really won't be able to leave!"
The man scratched his neck and said: "If you die, you will be a hero again in twenty years!" As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a sneer: "Hero, you think too highly of yourself, don't you?"
The person who spoke was none other than Xianyue. That person glared at Xianyue and said coldly: "You bitch, what are you talking about? You are seeking death. Believe it or not, I will kill you first?"
Xianyue was not intimidated by his words. This was not the first time she had experienced this kind of scene where swords were facing each other. She said in a cold voice: "It is not me who is looking for death, but you. If you die in a fierce battle today, maybe twenty
You will really become a hero in a few years, but today you have the innocent blood of old, weak, women and children on your hands, let alone a hero, you will not know whether you will turn into a pig or a dog twenty years from now."
"Hmph, do you Manchu dogs have the word "innocent"? It's really ridiculous." Before he finished speaking, Xianyue said: "Ask yourself what Concubine Yu's last name is, is she a Manchu or a Han?!"
Concubine Yu opened her eyes, forced herself to be calm and said: "The Ai family's surname is Geng, and they are from the Han army."
