Chapter 579 Escape from Tongguan
Soon, someone came over and said, "Now that Tongguan Pass has been broken, our Great Yan Army has already gone to Chang'an. You should pack up quickly and follow!"

Mu Jiaojiao quickly agreed, and went back with the little lady to put away all the soft things that had been saved these days.

However, when they finished collecting their things, when they planned to join the crowd and follow the large army to go out, they saw two court ladies stepping forward to block their way.

"Mrs. Cui, the Empress has sent us to pick you up, you should go with us!"

Mu Jiaojiao looked at them coldly: "Didn't your sage tell me not to allow her to approach me any more?"

The two laughed and said: "Mrs. Cui, don't you look at what time it is now! The saint and the king of Jin have already led their troops to Chang'an to kill them, and now the empress is the biggest here. If it is not to guarantee you Can follow up to treat the saint as soon as possible, do you think the empress is willing to take the two of you as a burden? You must not toast and not eat or drink as punishment, otherwise if something happens to you, the empress can tell the saint, yes You disobey the arrangement yourself and seek your own death!"

Of course Mu Jiaojiao understood that once Tongguan was breached, Chang'an would immediately fall.The political and economic center of the New Tang Dynasty was completely captured by the rebels.The capture of Chang'an is of great significance to An Lushan. He must run immediately to catch Tang Xuanzong and others, and then sit on the dragon chair in the center of the hall to declare that he is orthodox.

As his current eldest son, An Qingxu must also be by his side.Li Zhuer, the personal attendant of the emperor of the Great Yan Dynasty, was no exception.

The triple security she had built up with great difficulty disappeared in an instant, and Duan naturally had to seize the time to show off in front of her.

Sure enough, outsiders are unreliable after all, people can only rely on themselves.

The situation was stronger than others, Mu Jiaojiao would not be so stupid as to argue with them again, so she obediently lowered her head and followed the two maids with her daughter.

Duan has already boarded the carriage dedicated to her empress.Seeing Mu Jiaojiao approaching, her eyes turned on Mu Jiaojiao's already protruding belly, and the corner of her mouth turned up in a strange way: "It seems that Mrs. Cui is doing well in our palace! She is only five years old. In just a few months, your belly has grown so big, and your improvement is amazing. It seems...much better than when this empress first saw you. "

Mu Jiaojiao quickly said: "It's not bad, thank you for your kind hospitality these days."

Originally, he wanted to see her scared to death, but who knew that at this time, this woman was still so calm, Duan couldn't help feeling resentful.He wanted to take the time to teach her a lesson, but then he thought that An Lushan's illness was still not cured, and this woman had such a big belly. If something went wrong in his hands, then he would be the one who made the big mistake. An Lushan will definitely not forgive himself.

What a bad luck!With the enemy right in front of her eyes, she couldn't help clamoring in her heart to tear her into pieces!But the reality still forced her to keep a close eye on this woman, so she could send her to Chang'an to treat An Lushan's illness.In the past two days, An Lushan's eyes have been able to feel the light from the outside world, which means that his eyes are not far from returning to light.If I make trouble at this juncture, the end will be dire!

Forget it, when the sickness of the saint is cured, this woman will be useless, and then I will see how I can treat her!
Duan thought bitterly, then waved his hand and said: "I have asked someone to prepare the carriage for you later, you mother and daughter, go up! You should be honest along the way, and don't expect to escape. Otherwise, the saint left me Elite soldiers and strong generals are not fun to watch!"

Mu Jiaojiao only glanced at her, then turned around and went back to find the carriage.

When Duan saw this, he became very angry again.The maid beside her quickly persuaded in a low voice: "Empress, please calm down, she won't be at ease for long now."

"Thankfully, it's not long, otherwise I would really be driven crazy!" Duan gritted her teeth and waved her hand, "These days, don't let this woman appear in front of me again!"

The maid naturally agreed not to mention it.

Because the people in front were still fighting, their chariots and horses were the first wave to go to Chang'an via Tongguan, except for the soldiers.As soon as the battle ahead was over, the people who mowed up the tail hurriedly cleaned up the road to make a space for the carriages and horses to walk, so that their carriages and horses could move forward slowly.At the end of the day, it would be nice if they could walk twenty miles.

Originally, they could have stayed in Luoyang for a few more days, and it would not be too late to leave after everything was packed.But Duan was impatient and had to rush to Chang'an immediately.Now she is the biggest here, so everyone naturally dare not disobey her.

But it couldn't be better for Mu Jiaojiao.She is a month old, and she really can't stand the bumps.

Now walking all the way, she saw that all the villages on both sides of the road were burned, killed and looted. The houses were baptized by the fire, and only a few black sticks remained. She could vaguely hear the villagers who survived falling on the road The sound of weeping.On the way, I often saw some villagers with red eyes in a hurry, flying over and wanting to die with the rebels.

However, before they approached, the soldiers guarding the convoy stabbed the cherry guns in their hands.

There are also corpses that have not been cleaned up along the way.

Mu Jiaojiao had seen many scenes of natural disasters and man-made disasters before, but the tragedy was far less than that here.It was the first time for the little lady to see such a situation. She was so frightened that her little face turned pale, and she could only curl up in Mu Jiaojiao's arms, like a frightened little rabbit, not even in the mood to eat and drink. .

Although Duan didn't want to see Mu Jiaojiao, she always asked people to pay attention to the state of the mother and daughter.Knowing that they were terrified by the sights along the way, she smiled triumphantly: "I still think they are so powerful, so I can't stand it after seeing a few dead bodies? This is too timid!"

When the carriage passed Tongguan, even though the corpses on the road had already been cleaned up, after all, this place had only experienced a hard battle a few days ago, and the corpses piled up like a mountain.Now the corpses are gone, but the blood from the dead soldiers has already seeped into every plant and tree here, and the smell of blood is particularly strong.

In order to disgust Mu Jiaojiao, Duan specially ordered someone to stop here to rest.

Not long after, someone came to report to Mrs. Duan: "Mrs. Cui wants to go out to have a rest."

"Why does she want to urinate again?" Duan said unhappily.

"It's like this in the late stages of pregnancy. You have to go to the toilet more than a dozen times a day. Isn't it the same when you were pregnant with Mr. Wulang?" The maid whispered.

Duan was aroused to miss his son. "Speaking of which, Goro has been with the saint for half a month, and I don't know if he is doing well now. I really hope he can take advantage of this opportunity to make more contributions, and it would be best if he can arrest that stupid new emperor of the Tang Dynasty , so that he can stand out among his brothers!"

In fact, she wanted An Qingen's contribution to overwhelm An Qingxu, so that An Lushan could be persuaded to make An Qingen the crown prince, right?

The palace maid naturally understood her calculations, so she nodded quickly and said, "Mr. Wulang is smart and courageous, and has always been the saint's right-hand man. This time the saint attacked Chang'an, and brought him by his side, isn't it just expressing his importance?" ? There are many nobles in Chang'an, as long as Mr. Wulang puts his heart into it, he will definitely get a lot of credit for it!"

This made her feel very comfortable.Mrs. Duan nodded in satisfaction: "I see, Mrs. Cui wants to relieve herself, so you can let her go. However, there must be a lot of people by her side. They must keep an eye on her all the time, and they must not let her escape. !"

"Empress, please don't worry, these servants have already been arranged. Besides, their burdens are all held by us. She has such a big belly, so why run away?" The maid laughed.

"Even so, be on the safe side. This woman is very cunning, you must not take it lightly." Duan ordered in a deep voice.

The palace maid hastily agreed and retreated.

With Duan's permission, Mu Jiaojiao was finally able to help the little lady's hand and go out to find a convenient place.

With the growing baby in her belly, it is very inconvenient for her to move now.It's just that the child is pressing on the bladder, and the desire to urinate will emerge from time to time, which is really unbearable.And Duan clearly intended to use some small means to torture her, so it was impossible for her to use the hut dedicated to the empress, so she was driven outside, and she was asked to find a place to solve it on the spot like a village woman in the mountains.

Duan thought it was a humiliation to her.Unexpectedly, Mu Jiaojiao slowly found a secret place outside, squatted down quietly behind her, pinched the back of her daughter's hand, and nodded to her.

The little lady immediately whispered: "Oh!"

The lady-in-waiting who had been following them immediately walked over to two of them. "What's wrong?"

"Two sisters, come and help me, my mother has fallen!" the little lady whispered.

Immediately, Mu Jiaojiao's low moaning sound penetrated into his ears.The two maids became anxious and strode over quickly.However, as soon as the talent arrived at their side, he was knocked down by the little lady.

There were two other people standing in the distance, seeing that the situation here was not right, one walked towards this side again, and the other hurriedly turned around to report to Mrs. Duan.The little lady quickly dealt with the one who came close to her, and then raised her foot to catch up, trying to chase the person who was looking for Duan Shi back.

But before she could catch up, the man fell to the ground with a thud.

The little lady opened her eyes wide in surprise, and saw that after the maid fell to the ground, a face that was not unfamiliar appeared in front of her eyes.

Her face turned pale, and she quickly stepped back to Mu Jiaojiao's side.

Mu Jiaojiao also saw Junjun approaching, she immediately stood up.

Jun Jun walked over quickly, and handed over a burden: "Madam, time waits for no one, you and the young lady should hurry up and change your clothes and go!"

Mu Jiaojiao looked at her coldly: "How do you know we plan to escape today?"

"Tongguan is dangerous and a good place to hide. After passing here, you can go to Chang'an to reach Yimapingchuan. Now that it has been occupied by Anlushan's army, it will be even more difficult for you to escape. So I think you must Maybe you will choose to leave when you pass through Tongguan. Then you steal your bags quietly, and I follow you every time you go out to use the toilet." Junjun whispered, and hurriedly urged, " Madam, you and the young lady should hurry up, if you don't leave, the Queen Duan's people will come over!"

"Why do you come to help us again now?" Mu Jiaojiao motioned for the little lady to pick up the burden, but her feet still did not move.

Junjun lowered his eyes, "I know, I have done a lot of wrong things now, Madam, you and Liu Lang must hate me to death, right? In fact, I also hate myself, why did I listen to their words and concentrate on harming you. Now , I think it’s too late for atonement, so I can only do my best to help you, and it’s for my daughter’s sake!”

"Mother, can we trust her?" the little lady asked in a low voice.

"Now it's alright if you don't believe it." Mu Jiaojiao smiled wryly.

They have already reached this point, and they have no other choice at all.Tongguan is the best place to escape. If they can't escape this time, they won't be able to escape again in the future!

"What's your daughter's name?" she asked suddenly.

"Her name is Feng Niang, and she looks exactly like me." Jun Jun caressed his cheeks, smiling softly, "Unfortunately, I will never see her again in this life."

Mu Jiaojiao's eyes darkened. "I see." She immediately took her daughter's hand. "let's go!"

The mother and daughter quickly turned into the deep mountains and disappeared after a while.

Watching their figures walk away, Jun Jun breathed a sigh of relief.Turning around, she drew out the dagger she carried with her, and stabbed each of the four maids who fell on the ground.
