Husband has a sweetheart

Chapter 162

"What do you mean?" Jin Yongkang tremblingly called out, "You mean our Jin family treated you harshly?"

Jin Yongxiu glanced at him coldly, bowed his hands to the emperor, and walked up to the tower.

Zhang Yuqing leaned into the ear of Jin Yongkang who was full of embarrassment, and persuaded: "Why are you bothering? Your arms can't hold your thighs! Say a few more words, what if he really hangs you from the tower? This is his territory. It's not easy for you to die! Master Jin, you and I should keep our tails between our legs and be human!"

In the night of late autumn, with cold wind and cold rain, Jin Yongkang broke out in cold sweat abruptly.

The emperor must rely on Jin Yongxiu to defend the city, and favor Jin Yongxiu. Jin Yongxiu will do whatever he says.If Jin Yongxiu wanted to kill him, it would be easy.

This guy has a vicious mind and acts ruthlessly, what immoral thing can't he do?Just the act of robbing the people of rations by force is enough to nail him to the pillar of shame in the history books.

In comparison, killing a direct brother is nothing!
"Your Majesty, let's go back!" Jin Yongkang said tremblingly.

After returning to the magistrate's yamen, Jin Yongkang and Zhang Yuqian slept in the same room. The two terrified princes tossed and turned, unable to sleep, and sighed alternately.

In the middle of the night, the enemy army invaded outside the city several times, and the sound of killing cries and knocking on the door would be heard every two hours.

Zhang Yuqian shivered and buried his head in the quilt, covering his ears, as if this would keep him away from the terrible battlefield.

After finally waiting until the middle of the night, it would be dawn in an hour or two. Suddenly, there was a loud noise that shook the mountains and shook the people's scalps, and their hearts almost stopped beating.

There were panicked footsteps in the backyard of the yamen, and someone shouted in horror: "It's not good! Jiang Xia's rebels have broken through the city gate!"

Jin Yongkang jumped up from the bed like a frightened bird, the tight string in his heart broke with a snap, he lost all reason, and when he got out of bed, his legs limp and collapsed to the ground.

He stumbled and ran to the place where the emperor was resting, and saw Zhang Yuqing also running out.

Zhang Yuqing was terrified, and shouted: "What's going on? Why did they break through the city gate all of a sudden! What should we do?"

"How do I know!" Jin Yongkang shouted, "Where's the emperor? Your majesty!"

The emperor also quickly got dressed under the service of the servant, and strode out of the room, his hands and feet trembling unconsciously.

Jin Yongkang shouted: "Your Majesty, we have to leave quickly! If we don't leave, it will be too late!"

"This is not good!" Zhang Yuqing objected, "President Jin is still killing the enemy outside, maybe he can kill all the rebels who came in!"

The emperor was hesitant. His personal conquest this time was very powerful. Everyone knew that he was personally conscripted by Emperor Taichang. As a result, the cities were lost one after another. He led the army back step by step. Is it possible that he has to run again now?

What a shame!How should the world judge him?
Unless it was absolutely necessary, he would definitely not leave Nanyang and run away.

Jin Yongkang shouted with a distorted face: "What if he can't finish killing? The safety of the emperor is very important, how can we put the emperor in danger!"

"That's right!" Zhang Yuqian hurriedly agreed, "We can't put the emperor in danger!"

The chaos outside the magistrate's yamen is getting more and more chaotic. The riot of tens of thousands of people is not a small movement. More and more people are screaming in horror that the city gate is broken, run away and so on.

"Your Majesty, let's go! If you don't leave, it will be too late! There are hundreds of guards around you, enough to take us to a safe place!" Jin Yongkang shouted in horror. He is still young, and he doesn't want to put his life on the line. In Nanyang City, death is worthless, and the title of the Jin family must be handed over to Jin Yongxiu.

Just when Emperor Taichang was in doubt, the gate of the magistrate's yamen was slammed into several times.

Hundreds of guards ran out from the corner, drew their swords and stood in front of Emperor Taichang, staring at the front with tense expressions.

At the moment when swords were on the verge of breaking out, someone shouted that the emperor must have brought a lot of gold, silver and jewels with him here.

Emperor Taichang's face was livid, and he immediately said: "Let's go!"

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers have no food to eat and no place to live. They are huddled in the cold and rain in Nanyang City, and they have to worry about the slaughter of the Jiangxia rebels. Their spirits are tense and their bodies are exhausted. Enough to make hundreds of thousands of angry and fearful soldiers mutiny, from soldiers to robbers and bandits.

After all, Jin Yongxiu's soldiers have all done robbery before, and they are familiar with it.Not to mention robbing his gold, silver and jewelry, even killing him, the emperor, is a trivial matter.

No matter how the emperor sits in the world and holds the supreme power in his hand, can he still tell who robbed him or even killed him in this dark night?
Hundreds of thousands of young soldiers, can the prince kill them all to avenge him?I'm afraid in the end, for the sake of Daxia's stability, I can only let it go and admit it with my nose pinched.

"But President Jin..." Zhang Yuqing said unwillingly.

After Jin Yongkang got the emperor's words, he felt at ease, and reprimanded him: "If you are not afraid of death, just wait here!"

Wait for Lu Wei to collect your body!Jin Yongkang said in his heart.

"No, no, no!" Zhang Yuqing turned pale, and waved her hands hastily, "I, I, I, my wife is naturally following the emperor and Lord Jin!"

Now that it was decided to leave, there was no need to delay, everyone left immediately, and Zhang Yuqing had to go back to pack her clothes and jewelry, and was scolded by Jin Yongkang.

However, when they opened the gate of the magistrate's yamen, everyone was dumbfounded. Outside, hundreds of thousands of soldiers were running around like headless chickens. The wind was so loud that all the trees and trees were full of soldiers, yelling that Jiang Xia's rebels had come in and mixed in the crowd to kill.

If they go out like this directly, they will not be able to avoid being hit by the crowd, trampled into mud, and everyone will see the emperor fleeing in front of the battle, no matter what, they will not be able to stop the mouths of hundreds of thousands.

The magistrate of Nanyang immediately took the emperor out through the back door, and walked through the alleys.

The alley was narrow, and only three or four people could walk side by side. Jin Yongkang immediately let the emperor walk in the front, they guarded the emperor, and hundreds of guards followed.

Until the emperor and his party walked through several alleys, the guards hadn't finished coming out from the prefect's backyard.In addition, from time to time, there were soldiers running back and forth like headless chickens, and the lights were dark, and no one could see who they were. The guards were quickly dispersed, and they were far away from the emperor.

Not long after, there were less than 100 guards left to follow the emperor, standing in front of the emperor every step of the way.

Zhang Yuqing also disappeared.

Jin Yongkang roughly counted the number of people, and he felt at ease. As long as he can escape from Nanyang City, these 100 people are enough to protect him and the emperor.

As for Zhang Yuqing, I'm really sorry, Jin Yongkang sneered in his heart, a woman's footsteps are slow, she can't walk if she is delicate, and there is nothing she can do if she gets lost in the dark, who told her that her life is bad?Even if Lu Wei is here, he can't say anything.

It's a good thing to get lost, they are fleeing for their lives, is it okay to take a woman with them!

Zhang Yuqian followed closely beside the emperor, his eyes widened and he didn't dare to blink, for fear that if he relaxed for a moment, he would be separated from the emperor.

If they get separated, Zhang Yuqian can't imagine what he will experience later.

The emperor hurried to another city gate from the alley, from which he could go to Yizhou.

The soldiers guarding the gate did not let go, persuading the emperor not to leave, not to abandon the hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the city.

If it is said that the emperor was a little hesitant about fleeing Nanyang before, but when he came out, he looked in a mess, and then looked back at the Nanyang magistrate's yamen, which had been set on fire by rioting soldiers, and he was really scared out of his wits.Had he been one step too late, would he have been caught in the fire?

The soldiers who stopped the emperor were beheaded by the emperor's order, and they opened the city gate, grabbed dozens of horses and left Nanyang in a hurry.

Jin Yongxiu, who was fighting the enemy bravely at the gate of the city and almost drove out all the enemy troops who rushed into the city, heard the soldiers below come to report that the emperor had killed the officer guarding the west gate and ran away with Jin Yongxiu and Zhang Yuqian. Did not fall off the horse.

What is he defending Nanyang desperately for?
The emperor ran away just like that!Abandoning their hundreds of thousands of soldiers, they ran away with their guards!
The emperor's personal conquest is the main general.The general is so greedy for life and afraid of death that he abandons the city and flees. Even if he is the reincarnation of the God of War, he can't defeat Jiang Xia's rebels!

"My lord, what shall we do?" the lieutenant asked in fear.

Jin Yongxiu gritted his teeth and said: "First guard the city gate, close it, and then rectify the soldiers, Nanyang can no longer be chaotic!"

If the chaos continues, hundreds of thousands of soldiers will attack the city gate, and the last army of the imperial court will be ruined. How can we resist the rebellion of the vassal king, and suppress the Red Lotus Sect and Qingzhou thieves?
At this moment, someone came to report again, saying that someone set fire to the magistrate's yamen in the chaos. Now the fire is too big to put out the fire, and there is no manpower to put out the fire.

Jin Yongxiu turned his head to look in the direction of the magistrate's yamen, the raging fire reflected in his eyes, making his pupils shrink.

In the thick black smoke, a firework shot up into the sky, exploding a golden flower in the dark night sky, probably the fireworks stored in the back house of the magistrate's yamen were ignited by the flames.

"Block the news!" Jin Yongxiu made a decisive decision, "Let's say that the magistrate's yamen caught fire, and the emperor temporarily moved to a house in the south of the city. No one should know about the emperor..."

Before he could finish speaking, someone among the chaotic soldiers was screaming, "The emperor has escaped! The emperor has left us and fled!"

"Let's run too!"

"We are serving as meat shields for the emperor, blocking Jiang Xia's traitors' meat shields!"

Jin Yongxiu was furious, pointed at the chaotic crowd and shouted: "Lead someone to take down these people who confuse the people and disturb the morale of the army! Behead them in public!"

The lieutenant hesitated for a moment, but turned his horse's head and ran over with the people.

How could this black light know who was yelling?Lord Chief Soldier said these words, but there was no other way out, something had to be done to stop the further spread of words that could shake the morale of the army.

There was the sound of swords and halberds clashing in the darkness, and it was obvious that soldiers were directly killing them. Jin Yongxiu's mood became heavier and more frightening.

The emperor's escape was revealed, and the morale of the army became more sluggish. Coupled with the delay in the arrival of supplies, the soldiers were in such a mess. Even if he could block the impact once or twice, he was already unable to recover.

The anti-thief soldiers who ran in at the city gate were killed and went back with scars, and the dilapidated city gate was slowly closed.

Just like the precarious, besieged Great Xia court, scarred and dilapidated, how many years can it last?
