Chapter 137

Shen Yuexi received the reply from Prince Qi's son in the evening after a day and a half.

At this moment, there are still four to five days before the arrival of the Xirong army.Qiu Liming and Zhang Song led some soldiers to Xiaogang Village to assist residents in evacuating.Maple is being treated by Dr. Hua.

The dusty courier handed her the reply, and she took it with trepidation, and noticed the beautiful handwriting on the cover at first glance.This handwriting does not look like a man's handwriting, but rather a woman's handwriting.

Could it be that Xiao Beiheng didn't bother to reply and ordered his maid to write to her?

Having no time to take care of these things, she smashed the seal and pulled out the letter.

It was written to her by Prince Qi's concubine, who claimed to be Su Mo.In the letter, Su Mo first expressed her curiosity and admiration for her, saying that if they meet someday, they would like to see what a "ball flying in the sky" is.Next, when it comes to reinforcements, it is impossible for reinforcements to come, and Shen Yuexi is advised to evacuate in time.

Shen Yuexi threw the letter paper on the table and leaned back in the chair.

This imperial concubine is really out of date.Now everyone here is jumping up and down in a hurry, and she actually chattered about balls in the letter.Besides, I didn't have a good impression of Xiao Beiheng in the first place, and I even hated this imperial concubine.This is called hate house and black.

But he didn't know her well, and the danger had nothing to do with her, so there was no reason to worry about her.It is expected that this road will be broken.

It is better to rely on yourself than to rely on the sky and the earth.The more critical the situation is, the more you have to calm yourself down and find a solution.

Shen Yuexi closed her eyes, crossed her hands behind her head and thought.

Husband Xiao Zhuo is now surrounded by the army of Xirong in the territory of Xirong, these cavalry are hopeless.

Now Xiao Beiheng also refuses to help.

General Wei at the border... It's even more impossible. The emperor strictly ordered Dayan's defenders not to leave the border. He has a few heads who dare to resist orders.

Only Mei Pu was left. He had already sent a letter to the King of Xiliang, asking his father to send troops to help Xiao Zhuo, but he didn't know what the King of Xiliang's attitude was.Should there be an answer?

Yes, go see how Maple is.

Shen Yuexi opened her eyes and jumped up, opened the door and ran out of the room she was in.

Although the mountain wind is cold at night, the Taoist temple is brightly lit, people come and go, and the sound of clanging is continuous.The sergeants are expanding the residences for the common people to accommodate the coming common people in Xiaogang Village.

Shen Yuexi walked through the crowd and came to the backyard of the Taoist temple.To Yang Cong who was guarding the door of Meipu's room, he said, "Yang Cong, has the messenger come?"

Yang Cong put down the half-bitten pancake in his hand, wiped his mouth with his sleeve and said, "I just left, the prince is still reading the letter, I was going to inform Madam you."

"Really?" Shen Yuexi had a glimmer of hope in her heart.

Will the King of Xiliang send troops to help Xiao Zhuo? If he can help Xiao Zhuo get out of trouble, Xiao Zhuo is all cavalry, and maybe he can rush back before the Xirong army arrives.With Xiao Zhuo's ability, [-] Xi Rong troops are no problem.

"Yang Cong, I'm going to meet the crown prince. Give me the mask." She stretched out her hand.

Before Yang Cong agreed, Mei Pu's voice came from inside the room and said: "No need, here is the reply. It is for Mrs. Shen."

The voice sounded listless, and Shen Yuexi thought she might be rejected too.

A sergeant came out and handed the letter to her, and Shen Yuexi couldn't wait to unfold it.The letter paper is full of writing, with only two words on the first line:
"Rebel!"

Shen Yuexi thought to herself: It's over.

Then the King of Xiliang scolded him severely, saying that Mei Pu led the cavalry to leave in private, and the army of Xirong rushed over.I wanted to retreat to Yongwei and was blocked again, but fortunately I held it in Leshan.

All of this is the fault of Maple, the rebellious son.If Xiao Zhuo hadn't led the cavalry to lure Xirong away, he would have become the "King of Xiliang" in Xiliang Wang Meicheng.

Now that it is finally safe, I actually asked Laozi to send troops to attack Xirong again. Is this what my son said.Xiao Zhuo's life is fate, but your father's life is not fate?

The whole article is full of reprimands to Maple, and finally summed up in one sentence: If I don’t go, I will just squat in Yongwei.Whoever wants to go will go.

After reading it, Shen Yuexi resisted the urge to tear up the letter and handed it back to Yang Cong.

Really speechless.

Yang Cong looked at her sideways, and asked, "Mistress, the son just asked, did Xiao Beiheng refuse to help?"

Shen Yuexi nodded.

"Then what should we do, we can only hide?" Yang Cong showed a lonely look on his face, "It's a pity, our village is only decent, and it will be destroyed by Xirong again."

"It's okay, the village can be rebuilt after it is destroyed." Shen Yuexi put her hand on her shoulder, "As long as people are okay."

Yang Cong shook his head and said, "What's the use of rebuilding. Xirong will still come, and it has been like this for so many years. We have endured for so many years, thinking that we can live a good life..."

Shen Yuexi didn't know how to answer the reality she said.

There is a Langya pass between Xiaogang Village and Xirong, and Xirong can come here if it wants.Unless the whole village is moved, it will be really difficult for this place to avoid the flames of war.

The two were silent for a while.

While worrying, a woman's voice suddenly sounded from behind: "Oh, this place is much better. At least it's a place to live."

As soon as Shen Yuexi turned her head, she saw Li Wan and Mrs. Li stepping in through the gate with a package on their arms.

Mrs. Li smiled and said to her: "So Miss Shen is here too, Sis is in the room?"

"En." Shen Yuexi replied with one word.

Unexpectedly, the mother and daughter ran quite fast. Among the villagers, the mother and daughter were the first to run to Baixiu Mountain. It seems that the higher the position, the more afraid of death.

"Wan'er, go take care of Sizi," Mrs. Li said to Li Wan with a smile, "Sizi likes Wan'er's cooking the most. Let's live next door to Sizi."

Yang Cong curled his lips and said in a low voice, "Two ghosts who are afraid of death."

Mrs. Li couldn't hear clearly, but Li Wan heard it, and stared at Yang Cong: "You village woman, what are you talking about there. Who said we are afraid?"

Yang Cong snorted and said, "Miss, you just say you're not afraid, why are you two running over first?"

Shen Yuexi felt her head hurting, at this time, it's better not to quarrel over these trivial matters.

She said to Yang Cong: "They are relatives of my husband, it is right for General Qiu to pick them up first."

Mrs. Li raised her hand and pressed Li Wan's raised hand in the air, and said, "Miss Yang, you have really wronged our mother and daughter. Don't we want to be the first to come, and everyone won't leave."

"Not going?" Shen Yuexi and Yang Cong said in unison.

This is too fake.The Xirong army is about to attack, but these villagers refuse to escape?
Li Wan gave Yang Cong a white look, and said to Shen Yuexi: "Really, everyone worships the gods in the temple in the square. My mother said that the son needs to be taken care of, so we came here."

Worship the gods?
Shen Yuexi was taken aback, did another liar like Hua Duoduo come?Quickly asked: "How old is the immortal and what does he look like?"

Mrs. Li shook her hand and said, "If you don't neigh at people, just neigh at the statue enshrined in the temple."

"Ah..." Shen Yuexi was stunned.

"General Qiu also asked Li Zheng why he didn't leave," Li Wan said, "Li Zheng said that they were born there and died there. They would never leave Xiaogang Village. My cousin repelled the enemy. Now they must pray and let the idol appear again."

In the first half, Shen Yuexi understood clearly.The remaining residents of Xiaogang Village all swore to the death that they would not leave their ancestral land.She knew it from the beginning.

The second half says that the villagers are all worshiping the gods.This is...
