Someone above her head grabbed the rope and swung down, slid to her side, and hugged her waist.
"Are you okay?" A concerned voice, a familiar tone, and a face that has always been in my heart.
Princess Changning suspected that she was dreaming, so she grabbed her with her backhand and murmured, "Ayin?"
"It's me." Xu Yin looked at Princess Changning in front of him and asked in disbelief, "Why is the princess here? What happened?"
Princess Changning opened her mouth. There were many things she wanted to say, but all she could say was a sob: "Ah Yin..."
Seeing that she was in a bad mood, Xu Yin comforted her softly: "Don't be afraid, it's okay. Let's talk about it when we go down."
The Xu family guards fired a volley, killing all the bandits below, and the situation was initially under control.
Xu Yin brought Princess Changning down. Jin Shu and Dan Mo ignored their injuries and stumbled up: "Princess! Are you okay?"
"I'm fine, you guys..." Princess Changning looked at them covered in blood and couldn't stop crying.
Xu Yin turned around and ordered: "Chai Qi, find a house to settle them in, and then look for a doctor somewhere!"
"Me! I'm the doctor!" The doctor who escaped the robbery hurriedly stood up, "Miss, I was also kidnapped by the bandits, and I just helped show the way."
Xu Yin glanced at him, received Jin Shu Danmo's confirmation, and said: "Take him there with you."
"yes."
Most of the bandits in the village were too drunk to fight, so Xu Yin didn't need to give orders. The deputy captain had already made arrangements. By the time they settled down in the Juyi Hall, the cleanup was almost over.
After hearing the report, Xu Yin nodded: "Arrange the sentry first, and send someone back to report tomorrow. You will be responsible for the aftermath."
This is a credit that fell from the sky. The vice-captain was very excited: "Yes!"
After handling the affairs, Xu Yin went into the house to visit.
Jin Shu and Dan Mo were seriously injured, but fortunately they did not hit any vital points and had been initially treated. Despite this, they still managed to bandage Princess Changning's wound.
Princess Changning refused: "Don't move, I can do it myself."
"How can this be done? Where has the princess ever done such a thing?"
Xu Yin sighed, walked over and took away the medicine bottle: "I'll do it!"
Jin Shu Danmo then gave way.
As soon as the potion was poured down, Princess Changning took a deep breath.
"Be patient, it will fester if you don't wash it thoroughly." Xu Yin said soothingly and moved his hands quickly. He washed the wound, picked it, sprinkled it with medicine, and then bandaged it.
After finishing processing, she raised her head and looked carefully at Princess Changning in front of her.
It was obvious that she had suffered a serious crime. The bun on her head was messy and there were still red and swollen marks on her face. Xu Yin touched her lightly and she shrank back in pain.
Xu Yin twisted the wet handkerchief and gently wiped the sweat and blood stains from her face. After applying the medicine, he helped her comb her hair again.
After doing this, she sat down in front of Princess Changning and asked softly: "Princess, why are you here? Does Your Majesty know that you are leaving the capital?"
Hearing her mention the emperor, Princess Changning was stunned for a moment, and suddenly cried "Wow", Jin Shu and Dan Mo also shed tears.
Xu Yin's heart sank: "What happened? Your Majesty..."
After saying this, she burst into tears, her voice sad and painful.
Since the incident, she always felt that she was living in a dream. The mutiny and the escape were all just a dream. As long as she woke up, she would still be a happy little princess.
Unfortunately, life was passing away in front of her. She was wandering all the way and was frightened. She finally reached the vicinity of Nanyuan, but was plundered by bandits again, and she was almost humiliated.
Looking back on the past month, the carefree days in the imperial city were just a dream.
Xu Yin was silent for a moment, stretched out his arms to hug her, and gently patted her to comfort her.
When she suddenly heard the news, she was shocked, but also felt calm as if her boots had finally landed.
History is indeed not that easy to change. The dynasty is about to run out. It is not the work of one person or one thing. It is made up of countless subtle changes. Even if she tries her best to smooth out the visible crisis, the empty house will still remain.
It was on the verge of collapse. When the next opportunity came, a pillar was pushed and collapsed.
So what if King Duan is imprisoned? The decline of imperial power is already a fact, and the local separatist regimes have long been unable to deal with it. Even if it is delayed for a while, the disasters that have been buried for a long time will eventually break out.
After Princess Changning calmed down, she spoke: "Is it Jiang Yi? Has he usurped the throne?"
Princess Changning shook her head: "It's the emperor's uncle. The emperor's uncle launched a mutiny to usurp the throne."
Xu Yin was stunned for a moment: "Where did he get the soldiers?"
"I don't know." Princess Changning's eyes were red and swollen. "I had already fallen asleep that day, and suddenly there was chaos outside. After a while, General Liao knocked on the palace door and said that he was sending my brother and I away on the order of my father.
"
"What about the prince?"
Princess Changning's eyes were filled with tears again: "When we went to pick up Brother Huang, the East Palace had already been breached. Brother Huang, Brother Huang..."
She cried bitterly again.
Jin Shu added the following words: "We just found His Royal Highness, but unfortunately it was too late. There were rebels outside. His Highness pushed the princess to leave, but he didn't have time to leave..."
Princess Changning covered her face and burst into tears.
She heard the news about her father's death from General Liao, but his brother died in front of her. The bloody scene would be repeated in her dreams every night.
Seeing her grief, Xu Yin felt bad. The young man who was a little ignorant but kind-hearted could not escape his destined ending.
"We took advantage of the chaos and escaped from the palace. General Liao left behind, and I'm afraid it's already in danger. As we walked south, there were fewer and fewer guards. When we got here, they were the only ones left. We didn't dare
I took the main road and met a bandit..."
Jinshu wiped away his tears: "It's all because of us, we almost caused the princess to be humiliated. Fortunately, the county prince came in time, otherwise..."
Xu Yin's heart was full of mixed feelings.
Princess Changning said she didn't know, but she had already guessed that this matter must have been caused by Jiang Yi. He originally came from the Forbidden Army. He had secretly had other forces in recent years. When Yu Chong died, he sent his disciples
He went to Beijing and used this relationship to launch a mutiny.
I really didn't expect that just two months after she left, the capital would change like this.
The emperor died, the prince died, King Duan ascended the throne, and history finally came to this point.
At this moment, she felt a fatalistic powerlessness, as if she saw invisible wheels rolling towards her. Even though she tried her best, she still couldn't stop its pace. She could only watch helplessly as it rolled over her head, crushing everything.
Have to be crushed.
This is the current situation, this is history, it is destined and unstoppable.
