Xiaohua subconsciously took two steps back, sniffed, and then looked at Luo Li who was tossing her hair in shock. She swallowed, but finally didn't say a word.
The one who was even more surprised than Xiao Hua was actually Hua Baishi. His jaw almost dropped and he could not utter a word while trembling. He first glanced at Xiao Hua, and then glanced at his good daughter-in-law. If
Xiaohua has the ability of telepathy, so he will know that what his father is thinking at the moment is: his daughter-in-law is too fierce, she is almost carved from the same mold as his own wife, is it hereditary?
Luo Li seemed to have noticed the strange atmosphere. When she saw all the Hua family members, they all looked at her as if they were looking at monsters. She smiled sheepishly, and then ran back behind Xiao Hua.
After being shocked again, everyone in the Hua family finally came to their senses. At this moment, Xiaohua once again proposed running away. This time, Hua Baishi did not refute, but instead paid attention to Xiaohua's suggestion.
This is a treatment that Xiaohua has never enjoyed since she was a child. Now she finally feels the feeling of being the head of the Hua family. In one word, it's great.
So the entire Hua family began to move. The old housekeeper led the still-living associates in the Hua family and began to load the funds returned from various places. Due to the tight time, some banknotes and land deeds were simply buried.
The Hua family took only some silver and supplies and began to move westward.
The Hua family moved very quickly, and ordinary people naturally did not react. But some well-informed big businessmen naturally knew it faster. Now that the leading Hua family in Beiliang has taken action, they naturally cannot sit still and wait for death.
.
As a result, they also followed the example of the Hua family and began to withdraw funds. In this way, Beiliang City was completely in chaos. Some people began to cry for their fathers and mothers in front of the closed trading houses.
The money has not been withdrawn yet.
But now, no one would care about such a thing. So large-scale riots and conflicts began in the streets, and the officers and soldiers had to come out to suppress them. But even so, bloodshed happened from time to time, and the entire Beiliang City
It exudes a strong aura of death.
Xiaohua, Wu Zheng, Luo Chen and Luo Li were walking on the street, and they could feel the depression from a long distance away. Thinking that just a few days ago, this place was a prosperous scene, and now it has turned into this world.
Wu Zheng also sighed and said, "Now I want to have a big meal, but I can't find a place."
Behind the four people were members of the Hua family. There were Xiaohua's parents, grandpa and housekeeper, as well as some other useful assistants.
According to Xiaohua, this group of people should be going to the west. Although there is not as comfortable an environment as Beiliang there, it is not difficult to save their lives.
In fact, there is a huge and vast desert in the west of Beiliang, which is usually a perfect hiding place for thieves. But at this moment, I no longer care about so much, so I simply arranged for the Hua family to go there.
The four of them, Xiaohua, did not choose to leave, but resolutely decided to stay. Naturally, Mrs. Hua burst into tears, which was called unwillingness. Who would have thought that this time, Hua Baishi actually patted Xiaohua on the shoulder, which was rare, and then said
: "Be safe." After saying this, they all ran away in the carriage.
.
Xiaohua and Luo Li looked at each other in confusion. They stared at each other for a long time before they realized what they were doing. Could it be that they were dumped?
Xiaohua and the four of them walked leisurely on the street, which was in sharp contrast to the street. Xiaohua originally wanted to destroy the troops arranged by the prince outside Beiliang City, but in retrospect, she seemed to not remember where the troops were.
In fact, these are not important. Xiaohua feels that if the prince is a smart man, the thousand soldiers will never stand still. Thinking about it, arrangements must have been made at this moment.
Beiliang City has become extremely chaotic, and the soldiers are busy maintaining order. Now is the best time for the prince to take action. If the prince acts quickly, he may be able to return to Beiliang City in the next few days.
In the palace, His Majesty the Emperor was already in a panic. In his opinion, this was actually just a war against Nanyao. But he never expected that Beiliang City would be in such a panic. He knocked
Standing on the desk, he said to the ministers who were kneeling below: "My beloved sirs, is there any way to defeat the enemy?"
The ministers were silent. Even the Minister of War, who was always belligerent, was silent at this moment.
But at this moment, Eunuch Qi rushed in from outside. Regardless of etiquette, he went up and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness has led his troops back to the court."
When the emperor heard this, he was slightly relieved. He thought it was something bad, but it turned out that the prince was back. He also brought back soldiers, which could relieve Beiliang's urgent need.
On the second day, the prince's troops entered the city smoothly without encountering any obstruction. However, perhaps what the emperor and many ministers did not expect was that what they let in was actually a bad wolf.
After the prince entered the city, he did not enter the palace immediately. Instead, he immediately closed the four city gates. Then, his soldiers stationed outside the city guarded the four city gates, trapping everyone in the city.
At the same time, the prince's cronies in the East Palace cooperated with the prince inside and outside, and opened the palace door without any effort. Then, a large group of soldiers rushed into the palace like hungry wolves pouncing on food. What followed was
, and the one-sided massacre began.
In the imperial study room, Eunuch Qi had just received the news and ran in hurriedly. He had already formed a habit of not bowing to the emperor when he saw him, and without waiting for anyone to send a message, he said directly: "Your Majesty is not well, the prince is taking you with you."
The army came in."
"What?" His Majesty the Emperor's eyes widened, and he didn't react for a long time. Finally, Prime Minister Li Weiguang calmly called out: "Where are the personal guards?"
"It's already outside. I think it didn't take long for the prince to arrive and kill him."
The expressions of all the civil and military officials present changed greatly after hearing Eunuch Qi's words. It's not that they had never heard of the prince's regicide. But if it happened before their eyes, they couldn't accept it for a moment. What they were thinking at the moment
, that is to run away quickly. If you stay here for a moment longer, you will be in danger for a moment.
It became noisy among them, and some were ready to run away.
Fortunately, Wang Chaopeng, the Minister of the Ministry of War, stood up first and said sternly: "Shut up, everyone, no one is allowed to run away today." After that, he directly pulled off the official office and said, "If you want to run, ask me, the Minister of the Ministry of War, first.
fist."
I have to say that this person is quite intimidating. As soon as he really stood there, others would not dare to say a word. He was absolutely courageous.
On the other side, the prince had sent people to kill not far outside the royal study. From a distance, he could even hear the shouts of killing outside. Many ministers were so frightened that their legs were weak, and some staggered and collapsed.
fell to the ground.
At this moment, the prince's voice sounded from outside, "Dear father, my rescuer is late, please open the door."
When His Majesty the Emperor heard this, his eyes were full of loneliness, and a rescuer was late. This was the son he always valued! Haha, the Emperor looked up to the sky and laughed, but the laughter was full of self-mockery.
At the same time, another voice sounded outside: "You bold thief, how dare you commit the following crime."
Listening to the voice, it turned out to be the voice of the fourth prince. Although his people arrived late, there were still many of them, and they just blocked the prince's troops from going to the imperial study.
"Fourth brother, why are you going against me? I'll make you a king, okay?" The prince said with a hint of discussion in his tone.
"Who doesn't know that if you become the emperor, none of your brothers will be left behind?" Mo Han's voice suddenly sounded. He was seen holding the fifth prince, and in order to prevent him from seeing the blood, he deliberately blocked his little eyes.
.
"Haha, I didn't expect that my dear sister would also come to join in the fun." The prince's face was a little ferocious, and he said word by word: "If you retreat now, I can spare your lives."
"What a joke, now that you are here, you can't escape again." The fourth prince raised his head proudly and said to Mo Han: "You take Xiao Wu into the imperial study first." Mo Qing nodded, and then carried Xiao Wu into the study.
In this way, only the prince and the fourth prince were present. The prince was not prepared to say anything. With a wave of his hand, the men under his command rushed over like crazy.
The fourth prince did not show any weakness, and he also had many close associates. These people existed to deal with the prince's murder in the future. The old man beside him stirred up his spiritual power and took the lead in attacking the prince.
of troops.
However, the prince was sneering, not in any hurry, and stood quietly watching all this. He did not take action, but instead mocked the fourth prince and said: "You have such little strength, but you dare to jump out.
To stop me?"
"What do you mean?" As soon as the fourth prince finished speaking, four old men rushed out from behind the prince and rushed directly into the battlefield. Immediately afterwards, the battle became one-sided, and more and more fourth princes
The people here were like lambs left to be slaughtered, falling into a pool of blood one after another.
"Fourth, you are still too boring." The prince sneered, his eyes full of disdain.
At the same time, the old man under the Fourth Prince also rushed back and whispered in the Fourth Prince's ear: "Your Highness, it may be too late to escape now."
"We can't leave." The fourth prince shook his head. He knew very well what his brother was thinking. He would never let him go, and he would never escape. At this moment, he had no choice but to fight to the death. Even if he killed
If he couldn't defeat the prince, he could still thwart the other party for a moment longer.
When the old man heard this, he couldn't help but sigh. He stopped talking and silently guarded the fourth prince.
