I should marry the traitor

Chapter 14 Dong Bai raised troops to surround Yuan's residence, Yuan Shao left Luoyang City at night

Dark clouds covered the moon and the stars were dim.

Weapons were swaying and the wind was cold.

Luoyang has always had a tradition of night markets. The commercial streets are lit up, and the vendors selling all kinds of goods are also a beautiful sight in Luoyang City.

But today is completely different.

The tightly closed doors and the solemn soldiers in armor all announced that this night was unusual.

At this moment, outside the gate of Yuan Mansion, Yuan Kui was driving Yuan Shao away.

"I told you to leave, don't you understand Mo Chu?"

"I do not go!"

Facing her uncle's drive, Yuan Shao held onto the door tightly, looking anxious: "If I leave, how will my uncle cope with it?"

"Ridiculous, I am the head of the family, do I need you to protect me? You offended that thief Dong today, and if you don't leave Luoyang, you will be in trouble. Don't you understand?"

"It's just a matter of death, so why should I be afraid? If I leave, wouldn't it be a disgrace to my Yuan family, which has three officials for four generations?"

"You're dead, what about your majesty?"

Yuan Kui was an experienced man after all, and his words hit the sore spot of Yuan Shao. Looking at the hesitation and anxiety on Yuan Shao's face, Yuan Kui knew that he had made the right bet.

Most of the girls' concerns are about their loved ones.

"I, Your Majesty..." Yuan Shao fell into hesitation. On the day she met His Majesty, the young man's glance back in the evening light appeared vaguely in her mind. If she died, who would save His Majesty from the dire straits?

Yuan Kui asked someone to bring out a group of foals and gently patted Yuan Shao on the shoulder: "Mo Chu, it's not time to give up yet. My Yuan family has three dukes in four generations, so we have plenty of foundation and resources."

"In the final analysis, this thief Dong Bai only dares to stir up trouble because of his strong army. If Mo Chu can return to Jizhou, you can take the money and food materials of my Yuan family at will. One day, you can raise an army to defeat the thieves and welcome back the emperor. It will be easy for you to ascend to the Phoenix Palace!"

"But..." Yuan Shao's expression showed obvious signs of relaxation, but she still gritted her teeth and asked, "If I just leave, what will happen if the thief Dong makes things difficult for my uncle?"

"I'm not dead yet. It's not your turn as a young man to support the Yuan family. Just leave Luoyang as soon as possible. I will make the decision."

"uncle……"

"roll!"

Yuan Shao bit her lip and blood slowly flowed down the corner of her mouth. Then she grabbed her long hair with her hands, tied it up, and climbed onto the horse.

Whip the horse and gallop away!

There was no curfew in Luoyang, but since the soldiers from Xiliang entered the city, the streets had been empty at night, but this made it convenient for Yuan Shao to leave.

The Yuan family's horse is naturally extraordinary. It even has some demon blood in it and has excellent leg strength. It seems that it has reached the Luoyang city gate in the blink of an eye.

"I am Yuan Shao, the Imperial Household Official. I have important business to attend to and must leave the capital. Open the city gates immediately!"

Yuan Shao rode his horse in front of the city gate, waving the Imperial Household Order in his hand, but the heavy city gate did not move at all, and the defenders on the city wall looked at each other in bewilderment.

"It's not that we want to make things difficult for Grand Sergeant Yuan, but Grand Tutor Dong has issued a death order today to arrest thieves in the city. In order to prevent the thieves from leaving the city, no matter who comes today, the city gates are forbidden to be opened."

"It's ridiculous. The passage of carriages and horses should be under the control of my Imperial Household Department. How can I not open the city gate?"

"Master Yuan, please don't make things difficult for us soldiers. If Master Taifu insists on leaving the city, please ask for the Prime Minister's consent. If there is a written order from the Prime Minister, we will open the gate naturally."

Damn it, I was tricked. As the imperial steward, Yuan Shao never thought that there would be a day when she couldn't open the city gate. The Dong bandit cavalry entered the city not only to loot, but also to take over the city defense. The soldiers on the top of Luoyang City were probably not the loyal Luoyang defenders she had been to the day before. These unfamiliar soldiers were probably soldiers from Xiliang, and she couldn't use them.

"Soldiers on the city wall, open the city gate immediately!"

Just as Yuan Shao was thinking about the possibility of killing these guards on the city wall and opening the door alone, a familiar long chant was heard from a distance.

A familiar figure rode over, and the black horse was exactly the same one from that day.

The difference is that this time the young man has a purple-gold dragon crown on his head, which is a symbol of the emperor’s majesty!

The soldiers on the city wall looked at each other in bewilderment. Although they were just ordinary soldiers, they knew that only the emperor could wear the purple-gold dragon crown.

"I am the Emperor of Daqian. I have an important matter to entrust to Yuan Shao, the Imperial Household Minister. This is a matter concerning the state of Daqian. Every second counts. Soldiers, open the city gates immediately!"

Yuan Shao looked at the emperor who was riding a horse towards him in some surprise. His back in the sunset and his front at night seemed to be slowly overlapping.

Your Majesty, have you come to save her? Will it offend the thief Dong? Then how should Your Majesty deal with it?

The soldiers on the top of the city looked at each other in bewilderment. Their education level was not high, and they whispered to each other:

"What can we do? The Prime Minister has said that no one can be allowed to leave the city tonight."

"The Prime Minister is a higher official than the Imperial Household, so he should listen to the Prime Minister, right?"

"But the emperor is more senior than the prime minister. What should we do?"

Seeing the soldiers on the top of the city wall hesitating, Li Changge flew into a rage: "You actually disobeyed the emperor's order, are you planning a rebellion? You have delayed national affairs. When the Grand Tutor arrives, I will kill all nine of your clans!"

Seeing Li Changge's furious look, the Xiliang soldiers all started to murmur. The news spread throughout the Xiliang army that Grand Tutor Dong wanted to become the queen.

If they really angered His Majesty, there is a chance that the Prime Minister would kill all nine generations of their clan in order to please His Majesty, which would be unfair.

The soldiers looked at each other for a moment, and the leader finally stood up and said, "We can open the city gate, but if the Grand Tutor asks, please explain to your Majesty and the Grand Tutor."

"I will discuss this matter with the Grand Tutor. It has nothing to do with you. Open the city gates quickly and don't waste time!"

Following Li Changge's promise and the pulling of the rope, the heavy and ancient Luoyang city gate finally opened slowly, and the suspension bridge over the moat also fell smoothly.

"Your Majesty..." Yuan Shao was extremely moved and looked at Li Changge who was riding a horse towards him with concern.

However, the only response she got was a bow from Li Changge and a whispered warning: "Mo Chu, hurry up, the thief Dong is chasing us."

"Changge, wait for me to come back! I will not marry anyone else but you in this life!" Yuan Shao waved the long whip in her hand, and the horse galloped away like a stream of light!

"In this life, your heart is in my heart, and my longing for you is endless."

A hint of extreme love reached Yuan Shao's ears. She looked back with some fear. The entrance of Luoyang city, which was getting farther and farther away, was swaying with dense flames and weapons.

There was also the back of the young man riding a horse and standing under the city gate, which was deeply engraved in Yuan Shao's heart against the backdrop of the firelight.

"Stop! If anyone takes even a single step out of this door, I will commit suicide here!"

The wind seemed to bring His Majesty's thoughts and His Majesty's determination. Tears of blood flowed from the corners of Yuan Mochu's eyes, and the pain in her heart made her dare not look back again.

Behind her was a long and endless night, and she could only gallop towards Jizhou.

Wait for me, Your Majesty! Wait for me!!!
