The Jin army besieged the city, and the Song emperor’s daughter died

Chapter 152

The heavy rain has just stopped, and the silver moon is in the sky.

Although there is no light in Huining Mansion, under the bright moonlight, one can still see several feet away.

At this time, in the shack next to the city wall construction site, Gao Erlang was sleeping soundly. Zhao Kai held Yelu Yuliyan in his arms and comforted him: "Erlang is brave and should be able to help us escape back to the Song Dynasty. When we arrive in Kaifeng, I will explain to my father, I must accept you as my princess."

Yelu Yuliyan was no longer as cold as before. He leaned against Zhao Kai like a little bird and said softly: "I heard Zong Wang say that the last time Emperor Daojun saw the Jin army besieging the city, he was so frightened that he didn't even want the throne. Run, if I follow you back to Song Dynasty, there will be no war. Does your father dare to keep me?"

Although Zhao Kai was not angry, he still knew his current situation. He lowered his voice and said in a deep voice: "That's nonsense. My father is going to pray for the country."

"Oh……"

Seeing that Yelu Yuliyan didn't believe it, Zhao Kai shut up and stopped talking.

Zhao Kai was actually not stupid. He also knew what kind of crisis his escape would bring to the Song and Jin countries, not to mention that he also abducted Wanyan Zongwang's daughter-in-law.

But we can't escape. Are we really waiting for Zhao Fujin to break the contract a few months later and be used as a sacrificial flag by the Jin people?

As for how to deal with it after returning to Kaifeng, that is something for the future, and Zhao Kai can't think about it now.

But what he can be sure of is that even if he causes military trouble when he returns to Kaifeng, his end will never be worse than if he stayed in Huining Mansion.

After all, the Song Dynasty was more civilized.

When my thoughts came to this point, I suddenly heard Hai Dongqing circling and crying in the night sky, and then I heard the sound of horses galloping and armor colliding.

Zhao Kai let go of Yelu Yuliyan and carefully poked his head out of the low wall. He saw hundreds of cavalry rushing out of the inner city with a huff and a cry. He thought to himself, what the hell, Zong Wang should have known about himself and Yelu Yuli. Yan ran away.

Just as he was looking at the situation outside, he suddenly heard Gao Erlang whispering in his ear: "Am I right? If we had escaped just now, we would have been overtaken by the cavalry in less than a quarter of an hour. By then, I would not have been able to save us. It’s you guys.”

Zhao Kai smiled awkwardly and said: "Erlang is brave and resourceful. When I return to Kaifeng..."

Before he finished speaking, Gao Erlang covered his mouth and pressed his head down.

Another group of cavalry flew past the shack and ran in the other direction.

Amidst the vibration of the horses' hooves and the shouts of the Jin army, many people in the shack rubbed their eyes, sat up in a daze, and muttered: "What happened?"

Taking another closer look, there were two more people in the shack.

They are all well-dressed people.

Just as he was about to ask, Gao Erlang smiled and said, "My brother, my sister-in-law..."

That stupid-headed man just glanced at Yelu Yuliyan and blushed. He had never seen a woman with such temperament and appearance in his whole life.

Zhao Kai stood up and bowed his hands to everyone: "I'm new here, so I'm causing trouble for everyone."

Yelu Yuliyan also stood up and gave him gifts.

Once there is a good-looking woman in this man's nest, it will be difficult to fall asleep again. The group of people who woke up turned over and sat up and started chatting.

Zhao Kai had never had such a close conversation with people in the market. Knowing that they were all Han people from Youzhou, he curiously asked them what they thought of Song Ting. It was okay not to ask. This question felt exactly like what he thought. different.

As one of the sixteen states of Yanyun, Youzhou is of Han descent and should have a greater sense of belonging to the Song Dynasty court.

But instead of having a good impression of the Song Dynasty, these people scolded Emperor Daojun: "That emperor only knows how to cultivate immortals and play with stones all day long, and he is also ambiguous with the girl from the brothel. He doesn't look like an emperor at all. He is frivolous. We should not be sons of men!" "That is, although we are Han people, the Liao Kingdom treats us well. If Yelu Yanxi was not also a foolish emperor, we would be living a down-to-earth life in Youzhou, how could we be treated as pawns by the Jinren? The cow becomes the horse.”

Zhao Kai, who was originally extremely embarrassed, felt his mind was balanced after hearing this. He turned to look at Yelu Yuliyan. Yelu Yuliyan did not react at all and seemed extremely calm.

Zhao Kai was curious, everyone else said this about your father, how could you still do this?

Everyone chatted until the sky was getting brighter and the east was turning white. They were about to get up and start work when they saw the cavalry team from last night returning.

Zhao Kai and Yelu Yuliyan quickly got down and pretended to arrange their shoes and socks.

Fortunately, Jin Bing didn't look at these Han people seriously, otherwise one would have noticed something fishy just by the way they were dressed.

When the team of golden soldiers rode past, Gao Erlang came over and whispered: "We will leave later. You two will look through the shack later to see if there are any tattered clothes to change into. You two are dressed like this. He couldn’t get very far before he was discovered.”

While everyone in the shack got to work, Zhao Kai and Yelu Yuliyan found two pairs of tattered clothes and forced themselves to change into them. Then they followed Gao Erlang secretly across the Sali River pontoon and walked towards the south.

In the Mingde Hall of the Huining Palace, Wanyan Sheng heard that Zhao Kai had been rescued, and Long Yan was furious.

Pointing at several Jin Army generals, he asked, "Where is Commander Zong Wang?"

"Back to Your Majesty, Marshal Zong Wang led his men to chase him last night, and he has not returned yet."

Wanyan Sheng said in a deep voice: "Send more people. Even if we chase you to Youzhou, we have to chase you back. Remember, don't cross the border, and you have to live!"

……

……

After leaving Huining Mansion and walking ten miles south, the sky was already bright. Zhao Kai, who had been awake all night, only felt tired and hungry. He ignored Gao Erlang's urging and found a stone and sat down: " Erlang, you’ve been walking for so long, why don’t you take a rest first?”

Gao Erlang turned to look at Zhao Kai's cowardly look and muttered in his heart: "I'm afraid this King Yun is also a wimp."

Feeling disdainful in his heart, but respecting his face, Gao Erlang took out two pieces of dry food from his bag and gave them to Zhao Kai and Yelu Yuliyan: "Eat quickly and go on the road after eating. The horses of the Jin Army will not be like this." Rest."

Zhao Kai took the dry food and took a big bite without even breaking it. He chewed it several times and almost choked to death.

Gaojiro was speechless. He could only take out a broken bowl from his bag, put the bag on his back and warned, "You two, stay here and don't run around. I'll go get some water from the river over there."

Not long after Gao Erlang left, several horses neighed from the pass of the mountain. Zhao Kai was startled and all the dry food in his hand fell to the ground. He pulled Yelu Yuliyan and hid among the rocks. As a group of cavalry approached, Yelu Yuliyan's expression changed and he said tremblingly: "Zong... Zongwang..."

"They don't have horses, so they can't run too far. These two bitches hid in the shack at the city wall construction site last night, and you idiots didn't even notice them! Look carefully!"

Zong Wang pinched Yelu Yuliyan's clothes and cursed viciously: "Bitch!"

"Commander, here is a piece of dry food!"

Wanyan Zongwang lowered his head and glanced at the dry food that had fallen on the mountain road, and sneered: "It's in this mountain col, search it carefully for me!"

As soon as he said this, Zhao Kai felt that his legs were weak and his heart was beating as if it was about to burst from his chest.

Turning around to look at Yelu Yuliyan, I saw that her eyes were tightly closed, her teeth were clenched, and her jade hands were clutching the roots of weeds on the ground, as if waiting for death.
