Chapter 278
On the city wall, the soldiers guarding the city looked at the menacing Heijia army below, all of them were frowning and dignified.

Ever since they became soldiers defending the city, they have been guarding Liang Jingcheng against the invasion of foreign enemies. For so many years, Xiliang has always had a strong national fortune, and they have never encountered such a scene of soldiers approaching the city. What to do next.

Shen Qingli looked at these solemn soldiers and said, "Guardians and soldiers of the city, I believe in my husband. I have been watching him by his side for so long. He was able to hide from the whole world when the first emperor was alive. , when he became the governor of the East Factory in Xiliang, others may think his behavior is despicable, but as his wife, I can only see how difficult it is for him."

"As a normal man, he wandered in the sinister officialdom and the struggle for imperial power, and everyone saw his strength. Now such a powerful person, when others thought he might have died, He even secretly gathered troops and broke into the hinterland of Northern Qi. He was on the front line to avenge the dead people of our Xiliang, and fought for our trampled dignity in Xiliang."

Shen Qingli looked at those soldiers with a look of determination in her eyes that had never been seen before, "With him here, we still have hope of living. But now, if we are really captured by the Northern Qi army, then our Where is hope?"

"Northern Qi was developed from nomads. Such a large army, they have never been soft on their captives. If we compromise or become weak at this time, we are equivalent to handing over our lives to the hands of tigers and wolves. All soldiers, you I don't want to hand over my life to them at such a young age. Your parents are still waiting for you, and the people in this city are watching you. At this time, there is no need to back down. As long as we all work together, why should we be afraid of each other? !"

Hearing Shen Qingli's encouragement, the morale of the soldiers in the city was lifted, and they began to concentrate on resisting the Northern Qi army that was planning to attack the city.

Tong Wanjin looked at Shen Qingli in surprise, and thought in his heart that he never thought that this little girl would not lose him at all when speaking.

Shaking his head and smiling, he immediately said to the ministers with a cold face, "You all know that Lu Huaiqi loves his wife the most. Now that his wife is still in Liang Jingcheng, he will definitely not ignore Liang. From the capital. On the contrary, if at this time there is still the idea of ​​selling Shen Qingli to the Northern Qi people, Lu Huaiqi will definitely not let him go!"

Those ministers knew that this was a warning to them not to think any more that they shouldn't have. Once Shen Qingli got rid of his work, they would not want to live either.

Tong Wanjin watched the soldiers struggling to resist the army outside the city gate. He walked up to Shen Qingli and said, "Go, I'll escort you away, it's too dangerous here."

Shen Qingli didn't refuse either, she had already said what she had to say, she had done what she had to do, there was no point in staying here any longer, it was better to go to a safe place earlier.

Immediately followed Tong Wanjin down the tower, the little emperor looked at their leaving backs and lowered his head, it's good to leave now.This is also safer, thinking that he almost killed her just now, a feeling of self-disgust arose in his heart, he would listen to Gao Junshen's words and push her out. Selfishness is incompetent after all.

If Lu Huai was here, he would definitely not let this happen.

Now he found more and more that he was really inferior to Lu Huaiqi.

Lu Huaiqi is undoubtedly more suitable to be in charge of the government than him, a foolish monarch who is helpless whenever he encounters a problem.

Hearing the roar of the killing sound, he was in a daze, not knowing what to do next.

The ministers gathered together, looking at the murderous Gao Junshen below, they couldn't help but fear their end, the opponent had a lot of people, their odds of winning were really too low.

Today's Liangjing city wall is covered with dripping blood. Those blood are the witnesses of the confrontation between Xiliang and Northern Qi soldiers today. Outside the city wall, there are many corpses of soldiers wearing black armor. Those are the Northern Qi army. .

Maybe they were forced into a desperate situation, or maybe they had no other choice. In short, the Xiliang soldiers defending the city tried their best to block the Northern Qi army from Liangjing City. This result made them feel unbelievable. But Gao Junshen looked at the corpses of the Heijia soldiers piled up outside the city tower, his face was full of fear, but he had to order to stop the attack. It was getting late, and it would be very disadvantageous for them to fight any longer.

Seeing that Gao Junshen had finally stopped letting people attack the city, the little emperor finally breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the palace under the escort of the palace guards.

As soon as the little emperor left, Luo Nan appeared from the shadows on his back. He frowned and looked at the little emperor who was leaving. He was thinking that Gao Junshen might attack Liang Jingcheng at any moment, and Xiliang would soon become a place of right and wrong. Maybe it's time to plan ahead.

After watching for a while, he also walked back home.

In the evening, the guards at the gate of the city stood in the bitter cold wind, their bodies straight as pine, and their eyes were always vigilant about their surroundings to prevent the enemy from making a surprise attack.

Suddenly, they heard a burst of footsteps coming towards them from far and near, and pointed their guns at the person who came, and said coldly, "Who is it!"

A woman among the visitors approached, and a delicate and quiet face appeared in their sight, it was Shen Qingli.They put away their red-tasseled spears in shock, and said in surprise, "Madam Lu, why did you come here late at night, with the Northern Qi army outside, this is a dangerous place, you should stay away..."

Shen Qingli smiled softly, "I just saw you defending the city hard, so I came here specially to bring you some food. Also, I was afraid of a surprise attack by the Northern Qi army outside the city, so I came here to have a look."

There are some women and children from ordinary families behind her, all carrying some lunch boxes, it seems that they come here for the same purpose as Shen Qingli.

It was hard for them to refuse, and they were quite touched, so they all accepted it. Looking at the demure and graceful Shen Qingli, they secretly sighed that Mrs. Lu and that lord were really a match made in heaven, they were both the same gods.

And it was such a woman who almost died on the tower today. Now that I think about it, thanks to that person who came to stop her earlier, otherwise it would be another pity.

Looking at Shen Qingli's indifferent appearance, they couldn't help admiring her courage. She was able to face hundreds of thousands of troops without fear.With such a woman, it's no wonder that Lu Huaiqi regards her as his true love.

Shen Qingli returned to Lu's residence after delivering the food.

Lu Huaiqi did not die, and he was dealing with the enemy army in Northern Qi. As his wife, she naturally has no reason to be a prisoner anymore. She has recovered her freedom and can go back to her home.

Ranmo Zhangli and Mrs. Zhu are waiting in the mansion. At the beginning, Shen Qingjiao said that Luo Nan had captured Mrs. Zhu, and it was indeed a false statement to deceive and intimidate her. Mrs. Zhu has recovered a few days ago and has been in the carp all the time. Resting in the garden, and now knowing that she has returned to the mansion, she also came back from the Liyuan, bringing all the servants in the Liyuan.

The servants and housekeepers who escaped from the secret passages of the Lu Mansion also returned to the Lu Mansion. Shen Qingli walked in the corridor of the mansion, looking at the mansion that had changed drastically, and sighed slightly in his heart. After all, he finally came back. Fortunately, the people around her are still there, fortunately - he is still there.

Thinking that Lu Huaiqi is still in the world, and now he is far away in Beiqi, a kind of gratitude to God was born in her heart. She suddenly thought of the lottery that she had asked the old monk in the temple a long time ago. The old monk said that they would need to deal with many The twists and turns, now it seems that this is really the case, I only hope that they can survive this pass smoothly and reunite as soon as possible.

She touched her swollen belly, hoping that when the child was born, he would come back.She wanted the child to see his father at first glance.

Upstairs in Jiaoyue, Shen Qingjiao sat in front of the window anxiously waiting for Luo Nan to come back.

These days, she has been worried. At that time, she had already discussed with Luo Nan that once Gao Junshen captured Xiliang, they would immediately surrender to him.

Fortunately, the gold and silver under Luo Nan's name were inexhaustible, and she believed that those things would make Gao Junshen let them go.

However, she was still worried, what would she do if something went wrong halfway and Gao Junshen suddenly turned his face and refused to admit it.

She didn't care about the fate of Xiliang at all. The people of the country were nothing to her, and those things had nothing to do with her. She was only worried that she would be affected and unable to protect herself.

She is also very clear about Gao Junshen's temperament of that old fox. If something happens to that person's temperament and he orders the massacre of the city, she is also afraid that she will lose her life.

After waiting for a long time, I asked the servant girl to go to the door to look at it for a few times. Finally, when she returned to Luo Nan, she hurriedly opened the door to meet her, and threw herself into Luo Nan's arms pretending to be worried. After holding him tightly for a while, she finally With tears in her eyes, she raised her head, and said pitifully, "I'm terribly worried. I'm afraid that something might happen to you over there. Are you okay?"

Luo Nan looked down at the two lines of tears left on Shen Qing's white and flawless face, and raised her hand to wipe them away pityingly, "Don't be afraid, I'm back, I'm fine..." comforted Shen Qing After a while, Luo Nan helped Shen Qingjiao to sit down, and told Shen Qingjiao in detail what happened on the tower today.

After listening, Shen Qingjiao's face was full of disbelief, and she said with difficulty, "Lu Huaiqi is not dead!?" After repeating it one after another, she suddenly raised her eyebrows and snapped her nails and said sharply, "He Why didn't he die? Now it's alright, he didn't die, Shen Qingli didn't get cut to death, neither of them died..." She covered her face in a daze as she spoke, and then burst out in pain. She fell into Luo Nan's arms without a sound, and said sadly, "Why, why, no matter what I think, she still lives well as before, but I have to suffer so much..."

Luo Nan comforted her distressedly, and finally coaxed Shen Qingjiao to rest, he sighed and got up to go out, and just now promised Shen Qingjiao to go to see the little emperor, although he is exhausted now, he is still rushing To the palace.
