Not all the soldiers and horses went up the mountain, but some were left to guard the bottom of the mountain to prevent the bandits from escaping.
The rescued women no longer panicked. The government soldiers and horses went to the mountain to suppress the bandits in person. No one was in a hurry to leave, waiting for the government officials to send them back to their relatives.
Li Minglou did not want to leave. Although these soldiers did not kill them as bandits, the danger was not eliminated.
She thought about whether all the soldiers and horses in Huainan Road had become vassals of Ankang Mountain, or was it just these? It was a pity that the story told by Jiang Liang and Liu Fan in that life did not have these details.
Fang Er and his guards surrounded her, keeping vigil and planning opportunities to escape. Jin Jue felt the tension in the atmosphere and clenched her black umbrella.
"Don't be afraid." The woman's voice sounded.
She always sat next to Li Minglou. Although she was blind and stupid, she could feel Li Minglou's nervousness.
Li Minglou looked at the woman, thought of what the woman had said before, and thought of what he blurted out, and his whole body became numb again.
Wu Ya'er.
This woman has a daughter-in-law, a daughter-in-law, a daughter-in-law, and a daughter-in-law has a son.
I just never thought about it...
"Is your son Wu Ya'er?" she asked.
The woman stretched out her hand to touch her shoulder: "Qier, don't you remember Ya'er? You two met her when you were children." She said softly, "Yao'er is very good, don't be afraid of him, he will treat you well."
Li Minglou nodded and said softly: "I know." After a moment of pause, she should have called mother to induce the woman to ask questions, but the word mother, when thinking of her deceased mother, her memory has been blurred, and this title has been hidden deeply.
In the bottom of my heart.
She didn't shout out in the end.
"Where is Wu Ya'er now? Where is your home?" Li Minglou asked softly.
The woman put her hand to her lips: "Shh, Que'er, don't say anything about Ya'er, lest others find out."
Li Minglou nodded and responded: "I forgot, you only told me quietly."
She moved her body closer to the woman.
The woman smiled and hugged her: "I will tell you when I see Ya'er."
Her embrace is soft and her attitude is firm.
Li Minglou didn't know how to ask a question from a crazy woman. The woman's words were confusing and she didn't know whether they were true or false. She leaned in the woman's arms and didn't ask any more questions or break away and get up.
The first Marquis, Wu Ya'er, was an orphan without a father or a mother. However, after Wu Ya'er became famous, the Wu family in Shangqiu held a blood recognition ceremony and determined that Wu Ya'er was the bloodline of the Wu family who had been living abroad. Wu Ya'er recognized his ancestors and returned to his clan.
The Wu family of Shangqiu was a descendant of Duke Wu of the Spring and Autumn Song Dynasty. It was because of this famous and orthodox bloodline that the emperor rejected the courtiers' doubts about Wu Yaer's title of marquis.
This was something everyone knew after Wu Ya'er became famous in that generation. Jiang Liang and Liu Fan also told her. Of course, they were different from ordinary people and scorned the Shangqiu Wu family's blood recognition.
"That's just a good deal between Wu Ya'er and the Wu family."
"Everyone who is successful and famous wants to put on a glamorous robe to cover up his miserable past."
Jiang Liang and Liu Fan had different opinions on many things, but they had the same attitude towards Wu Ya'er. If Ankangshan was a vicious dog, Wu Ya'er was a jackal.
The First Marquis Wu Ya'er was unworthy in their eyes. Even though he had the merits of suppressing the rebellion and stabilizing the country and the people, he was just using violence to counter violence at the right time.
The main reason for this being unbearable is that Wu Ya'er did something as brutal as the rebels, massacring the city.
Massacre of the city…..
Li Minglou stood up suddenly.
The woman was caught off guard and fell. The black umbrella in Jin Jue's hand was knocked away. Fang Er and the guards immediately tightened their posture.
And the officers and soldiers who had obviously been ordered to keep a close eye on this side also grabbed their swords and guns with a bang.
Are you about to take action?
"Hey." Li Minglou looked at the officers and soldiers over there, without taking a step, he just asked loudly, "Where is the county seat here?"
They took a detour all the way to this place on a rainy night. They knew they had reached the northern part of Huainan, but they hadn't yet elaborated on the specific city.
There is no need to know that if it hadn't rained, they would have passed through this mountain village and left here.
You can know who is under the jurisdiction of the city by asking Qingcheng. Does the lady know all the officials in Huainan Road? Fang Er guessed.
An officer and soldier hesitated, the question was irrelevant.
He said: "Dou County."
Li Minglou looked at the officers and soldiers, said oh and sat back on the rock.
Jin Jue hurriedly opened the umbrella again, and the woman sat beside her obediently, as if nothing had happened.
The officer and soldier also breathed a sigh of relief, but he glanced at Li Minglou again, and Li Minglou was still looking at him.
Strangely, this woman couldn't even see her face, but her eyes felt inexplicably hairy. Perhaps because of her inhuman appearance, the officers and soldiers looked away.
Li Minglou looked at the officers and soldiers as if they were looking at a dead person, no, a group of dead people. Her eyes swept across the front of her eyes. These were not just the garrison troops in the county. Her eyes were looking further away, the entire Dou County.
dead.
Dou County is an inconspicuous small town in the past dynasties. In that life, it was known to the whole world because of a tragic incident.
Not long after the military rebellion, Dou County was captured and almost all the officials, soldiers and people in the county died.
At first, everyone thought it was the work of the Xuanwu Dao rebels. A group of people were arrested and tortured but no results were found. Cui Zheng and the eunuch Quan Hai fought fiercely, and Ande Zhong also quietly invaded Huainan Dao and suppressed the matter.
Come down.
During the melee of the rebellion, after Wu Ya'er became famous, some survivors in Dou County reported that the attackers were Wu Ya'er and his Crow Army.
In order to stabilize people's hearts, the imperial court wanted to blame the An family and his son for the incident. The survivors in Dou County were also stubborn and committed suicide in front of the Wu Ya'er Army while holding up the hidden evidence of Wu Ya'er Zhenwu Army's waistband.
Wu Ya'er came from the crowd.
The survivor who was still breathing asked Wu Ya'er if he dared to tell the truth under the clear sky and broad daylight.
Wu Yaer calmly admitted that he did it.
The world was in an uproar.
Afterwards, the imperial court cleaned up the mess, saying that Ankangshan and his son had set up the trap, that it was framed by the rebels, etc. Wu Yaer did not mention the matter again, and in the end it was officially confirmed that the rebels were responsible for the rebellion.
The rebels in Ankang Mountain were fond of massacres, and any city that resisted was brutally massacred after being captured.
However, the court wanted to appease the people. For many people, they already understood that Wu Yaer was indeed responsible for this incident.
"No wonder Quanhai held the emperor hostage and summoned the military force to protect him. Not long after the news was sent out, Wu Ya'er descended from the sky and appeared in the capital. It turned out that he was already in Huainan at that time." Jiang Liang solved the long-standing confusion,
Then he sneered, "What's the difference between this man's behavior and Ankangshan's father and son? He's just doing it in the name of supporting His Majesty."
This was the main reason why Wu Yaer was considered unworthy and was opposed by hundreds of officials when he was granted the title of Marquis.
The emperor who ascended the throne from the rebellion was suspicious and wanted to hold on to Wu Ya'er even though he knew that Wu Ya'er was a vicious sword. The more the officials opposed him, the more they relied on Wu Ya'er.
Soon after Wu Ya'er was granted the title of Marquis, he died of an old injury. The emperor and the court were relieved. Then Xiang Yun, a Confucian general from a well-known family, emerged as the main army. The emperor and courtiers were extremely satisfied, and the world was finally at peace.
No one can explain why Wu Yaer, a member of the Zhenwu Army who was far away from Mobei, would go to a small town in Huainan to do such a cruel thing. The most reasonable explanation is that just like Ankang Mountain, he had been a wolf with evil intentions and speculation.
A hero who has defeated the emperor, otherwise he must be a rebellious official and a traitor.
Li Minglou turned his head and saw the blind, crazy and stupid woman sitting next to him.
The woman noticed and smiled gently at Li Minglou.
If she was really Wu Ya'er's mother, she would either be dead or waiting to die at this moment in her life.
The officials and soldiers of Dou County colluded with the bandits and watched with cold eyes, hiding the weather here.
So, Wu Yaer attacked and slaughtered the city in a rage because of this woman?
Li Minglou raised his hand and touched the woman's face, rubbing it gently, soft and fresh.
