The city seemed far away and near in the hot sunlight, giving it an unreal feeling.
Wu Xin shook his head to wake himself up, and the long grass knitted hat on his head also swayed like a summer wind blowing.
"There's not even a breeze in this damn weather!" Wu Xiao slid over and complained, "I'm going to die from the heat!"
"I asked you to guard the city at home. You must come." Wu Xin said, "It's so comfortable to guard the city at home."
Wu Xiao chuckled: "I was still young when I fought Ankangshan last time. I can't miss it this time. My adoptive mother said that Ankangshan will die this time and I won't have to fight in the future!"
Wu Xin had no doubts about Mrs. Chu's words and looked back: "Has the adoptive father arrived?"
Wu Xiao nodded: "The scouts have arrived."
Not long after Fang Shichao crossed Hebei Road, Wu Ya'er mobilized troops and horses, with Wu Xin and Wu Xiao as the vanguard, and came to Taiyuan Prefecture.
Now Wu Yaer and his army have arrived.
While the two brothers were talking, Xin Bing came over and asked Wu Ya'er to invite them over.
Camps and tents were set up on the vast land, filled with people and horses, and tall watchtowers were erected at the camp gates.
Wu Xin and Wu Xiao rushed in after checking their identity tokens, and arrived at the commander's camp amidst the greetings of young masters.
Wu Yaer stood in front of the map and pondered.
"Father!"
Wu Xin Wu Xiao knelt down on one knee and worshiped.
Wu Ya'er turned around and asked them how they were doing now. The two of them talked about the survey situation in half a month.
After finishing speaking, Wu Xiao asked impatiently: "Father, should we do it now?"
Wu Ya'er shook his head: "It's not possible now. We have to wait for the news of your adoptive mother. If we take action now, it will make them unite as one."
Wu Xin Wu Xiao nodded.
"Then the foster mother and the others are also leaving?" Wu Xiao asked again.
Wu Ya'er counted the time to receive the news and pointed to a place: "We are almost here. Then we will attack Taiyuan Mansion from the north and they from the south."
Wu Xiao looked at the map with a smile: "Then we can meet our adoptive mother in Taiyuan Mansion."
Wu Ya'er smiled slightly.
There was a sound of footsteps outside the door. Wang Li lifted the curtain and came in: "Crow, there is news!"
Three voices sounded in the camp: "Is this news about Mrs. Chu?" "Is there news about the adoptive mother?"
Only then did Wang Li see clearly that there were two more people. He was startled and immediately glared: "Really! Apart from the news about Mrs. Chu, do we have no other news to receive?"
Wu Xin Wu Xiao giggled.
"Go!" Wang Li waved his hand, "I have other news with the governor!"
Wu Xiao hugged Wang Li's waist: "Uncle Li, I left something good for you. Come find me later."
Wang Li sneered: "I believe you are a ghost!"
Wu Xin smiled and pulled Wu Xiao to leave.
Wang Lidao: "Why did you bring them two here? The fight will be very miserable, but you can't take care of them."
Wu Ya'er said: "Let them be at the rear when the time comes. Now they can still do a lot as vanguards."
Wang Li hummed twice.
Wu Ya'er asked: "What's the news?"
Wang Li sighed and remembered: "It's about Shangwucheng."
Wu Ya'er looked at him and waited for the answer.
"Shangwucheng..." Wang Lida said with a strange expression, "No more."
Wu Ya'er was a little surprised. What does it mean that a city is gone?
Of course, in these troubled times, it is not surprising that a city has disappeared. Earlier, the rebels attacked the city, looted the land, and burned and killed them. They often killed half of the city's people by fleeing, and the city was also set on fire. Wherever it passed, the city became
ruins.
But Shangwu City should not be the case. Henan Road has not been invaded by rebels on a large scale, and Songzhou City has always been stable...
"I sent Xiaocai to take people there." Wang Li said, "Xiaocai said that when he arrived at Songzhou City, he saw that Shangwu City was being demolished and the city walls were almost demolished, so he sent him to repair the outer city wall."
"Wu family...?" Wu Ya'er asked.
I have an answer in my mind, but I'm not sure yet.
Shangwu is a city, but it is also a family home. How can it be demolished without the owner's permission? And the owner...the Wu clan will never agree, unless they are no longer able to run the family.
Wang Lidao: "All the nine masters of the Wu family were killed."
Wu Ya'er was shocked, what happened? Who did it? The rebels? Killing Master Jiufang, tearing down the Wu clan, so ferocious...
Wang Lida: "Han Xu."
Han Xu? Wu Ya'er was shocked, and felt a little strange in his heart...
"...The emperor wanted to pass through Linzhou when he returned to the capital. Han Xu was ordered to survey the route and happened to stop in Songzhou."
"The rules under Han Xu were strict, but the Wu family was domineering and made mistakes."
"Xiaocai inquired about it, and the people said that the Wu clan is unworthy and has a very bad reputation."
"The Wu clan was even more rampant in the past period, inciting the entire clan to fight against the government."
"Han Xu identified the civil unrest, sent troops to attack the city, and beheaded all the gentlemen who incited the civil unrest in public."
"Other servants were arrested, their property was confiscated, and they were forced to do hard labor. The men repaired walls and dug trenches, and the women washed clothes and made shoes."
"However, the innocent tribesmen who were deceived and found their way back in time were not implicated, and their family property was preserved."
"But Shangwu City must be demolished. A home is a home and a city is a city. It is not allowed to have a state within a state and a private city within a city."
Wang Li spread his hands to Wu Ya'er.
"So Shangwucheng is gone. Those people, Xiaocai asked me about the people you mentioned before, are all dead..."
dead.
Wu Ya'er looked a little startled.
Not many people in the clan knew about him. After all, his origins were terrible. His mother hid it from everyone and gave birth to him with the help of Aunt Wan.
"If it's a baby girl, send her away and find another way for her to live. It's too difficult for a woman to live with such an identity."
The maid looked at him tenderly and coldly.
"What the young lady needs is a baby boy. The young lady said that now that the matter is over, no matter what the origin is, it will always be her flesh and blood, so he is qualified to inherit the bloodline."
His mother loved him, but it was not just love, but also need.
"There is no love for no reason in this world. Miss, and you, you are not living by love, but in order to survive! Young Master, you must recognize this reality."
It wasn't until he was born that the men in the ninth house knew that they were furious but never killed him. Although there were many people around his mother who didn't love him, they needed him alive until they were gradually killed, bribed, and separated.
Suddenly his madness worsened, and he wanted to escape from Shangwucheng...
In the past few years, for most Wu clan members, the most they know is that the Wu clan is raising a child from nowhere in their big house.
The old men who knew about it and their descendants are all dead.
Wang Li comforted him and said: "It's really easy for them, I want to teach them a lesson myself!"
Wu Ya'er smiled at him, and Wang Li danced: "Crow, this means that those who do evil will be punished by death! These guys are used to being bold and reckless, and they really deserve to fall into the hands of Han Xu, a tough guy!"
From now on, there will be no Shangwu City, and there will be no ten houses of the Wu family. The big house is gone, and the other houses are gone. The city will be reduced to nothing, and the Wu family of Shangqiu will gradually disperse and become nothing more than a living being.
All this seems natural, but also incredible.
"What's so unbelievable!" Wang Li slapped him to bring him back to his senses. Wu Ya'er was greatly shocked by knowing this, "What's impossible in this world!"
He sneered coldly again.
"The tide has turned, and it's time for them to be unlucky."
He rolled his eyes and shouted.
"Oh Crow, you can't bear to feel sorry for them, right?"
Wu Ya'er laughed loudly: "What are you talking about! What does I have to do with them, and what does they have to do with me!"
Wang Li put his hands on his hips and said, "Does that mean you regret not being able to take revenge with your own hands?"
Wu Ya'er smiled faintly: "Isn't it beautiful to take revenge without having to use your own hands?"
Seeing that he finally regained his energy, Wang Li was relieved and laughed: "Beautiful! Beautiful! Beautiful! Let's have a drink tonight!"
He reached out and patted Wu Yaer's arm and winked.
"I brought some pieces of meat and hid them..."
Before I finished speaking, I heard an ahhhh!
"This little bastard Wu Xiao is here! Dog nose! My meat!"
He turned around and ran away incoherently. Wu Yaer stood there and laughed. He laughed for a while, looked at the map, looked at the map for a while and then sat back at the table...but he didn't see anything.
The Wu family was destroyed at the hands of Han Xu.
Han Xu killed many people, but his behavior was not like that of Han Xu, but more like that of Lady Chu.
It’s not surprising that Han Xu has a close relationship with Mrs. Chu. Han Xu admires and follows Mrs. Chu...
Wu Yaer turned around suddenly, he knew where the strangeness came from!
His chest was rising and falling violently. Could it be that Han Xu got her instructions...
Otherwise, this thing is really a coincidence. Han Xu arrived in Songzhou so coincidentally, and the Wu family so cleverly incited civil unrest, and first lost its reputation among the people of Songzhou. You must know that it has been a thousand years since the Wu family was cleared...
But, how did she know? Did she know? What did her mother say? Impossible. Although her mother was unconscious, she never revealed any information about her life experience...
What's going on? Is he overthinking it? Wu Ya'er took a deep breath and called for someone to come.
………
………
Wang Li was shaking his empty bag in the tent and cursing. A soldier looked over and said, "Master Li, the governor is asking about Mrs. Chu's movements and new news, and if there is any letter..."
Wang Li glared angrily: "Ask! Ask! Just ask her! I think about her all day long! If she doesn't tell me, how can I know the news about her!"
Li Ye lost his meat and became so angry that Xin Bing stuck out his tongue and ran away.
…
…
There is also a camp on the vast land at the junction of the capital and Taiyuan Prefecture. Sitting in the commander's camp among the piles of black robes and white skirts, Li Minglou's mouth is curved, and his smile is like stars falling into pieces on the lake.
