Chapter 759

The fire in the capital city in the night is as bright as day.

The streets are full of people, and many high-ranking families are also in chaos.

The servants in the house wandered about, inquired about the news and packed up. They clenched their sticks and firewood knives to guard the door.

Although it was not like crying in the street, everyone looked terrified.

Escape or hide? What's the latest news?

Ning Yan strode out, and the second lady of Ning hurriedly followed behind him.

"Master..." She shouted in a quick voice, with tears in her voice.

Ning Yan stopped and frowned at her.

"What are you doing crying?" He said, "don't blame Yunzhao for not delivering the news earlier. It's extremely difficult for him to protect himself."

There was another pause.

"He ran away with the emperor, not because he was afraid of death. There must always be someone around his majesty."

It's obvious that it's not just protecting the emperor.

Mrs. Ning raised her hand and wiped her tears.

"Of course I know. I grew up with Yunzhao. Don't I know his temperament?" She choked. "It's just you, master, you..."

"I'm bound to go out." Ning yansurong said, interrupting Mrs. Ning's words, "before I didn't go out, it was a matter of eating your salary and being loyal to you. If you don't listen to my advice, I will stick to it."

"Now you've run away." Mrs. Ning cried.

"Because now you're gone." Ning Yan said, "I want to stand up for the way of saints, the life of heaven and earth, and the life of Li people."

Mrs. Ning raised her hand and wiped her tears.

"You and the children hide at home. Don't run around. At this time, the capital must not be disorderly." Ning Yan said softly.

Mrs. Ning nodded with tears.

"Master..." she said, holding Ning Yan's sleeve.

Ning Yan frowns.

"Don't cry forever..." he said.

Before he finished, Mrs. Ning took out a sword and handed it over.

"Master, you forgot to take your sword." She said, "although he is a scholar, since he wants to defend the city, he still needs to take his weapons."

Ning Yan smiled.

"I really forgot." He said, reaching for it. "Then I'll go."

Mrs. Ning nodded tearfully.

"You go." She said.

Ning Yan turned and strode outward with his sword. When he came to the door, he saw a group of people standing. These were the servants of the family, each holding wooden sticks, knives and guns.

Ning Yan and his wife were stunned.

"Dad." Ning Xi came out and said, "let's go."

There are two other sons behind him, including the youngest, Shiro, who is only eight years old.

"Dad, let's go." He also shouted, holding a stick taller than himself.

"Eleven, what are you doing?" Mrs. Ning said and hurriedly came forward to pull her little son over and took the stick from his hand.

"Mom, of course we're going to defend the city." Ning Xi said, "defending the country is to protect the family, and everyone is responsible."

Ning Yan nodded.

"OK." He said, "let's go."

Ning Xi and others replied with a solemn look that Shiro would follow and be held by Ning er's wife. He couldn't help making a noise.

"Fourteen, my brothers and I have gone. There are only your mother, sister and dependents left at home. You should stay at home and protect them." Ning Yan looked at him and said.

Ning Shiro nodded and straightened his chest.

"Dad, don't worry. I'm at home." He shouted.

Ning Yan touched his head with a smile. The door opened, and the noisy cries in the street rushed like a tide. Although we couldn't see the specific scene, it was enough to make people pale and frightened in the night.

The door was immediately closed, and the remaining servants bolted the door one after another and put sticks on it, so that the door could firmly protect the people in it.

But the solid door protected the people inside and blocked the family outside.

Mrs. Ning hugged her little son in her arms and looked at the door with tears.

God bless you.

The noise on the street poured into the city gate, and the people who had poured into the capital wanted to rush to the city gate.

Drag a family and lead a family, push a cart and drive a horse. You cry and I shout. It's crowded.

The city gate has been closed, which makes the panic worse and the noise louder, and almost submerges the city gate.

All the people of the five cities army sent out swords, guns and whips. It was useless to face the surging people. Under the panic of death, the people were not afraid of this. The panic gathered together like a snowball, rolling bigger and bigger, crushing everything.

"Lord Ning is coming!"

"Lord Ning is coming!"

Shouts rang out in the crowd, and the shouts grew louder and louder as the guards tried their best to hiss over the noise around them.

Lord Ning's name was still very attractive. Gradually, everyone looked back. Under the light of the torch at night, the crowd made way and walked out of the tall and thin man with a sword.

Ning Yan has not appeared in front of people for a long time, but this does not mean that the people have forgotten him, and he is even more famous than when he was an official before.

This is naturally because he was dismissed against the emperor.

People may not understand the affairs of the imperial government, and they often don't care whether it's right or wrong. For them, a person who dares to confront the emperor and doesn't hesitate to lose his official position is a person of high integrity, a person who is selfless and broad-minded at the bottom of his heart. This kind of person is trustworthy and admirable.

This is also why the imperial historians like impeachment officials most, especially the officials with higher fame and status. They love to pursue impeachment, because it can maintain reputation.

The appearance of Ning Yan calmed the people temporarily.

"My Lord, my Lord."

"Did the golden man call?"

They cried and asked for help.

Ning Yan looked at them with a solemn look.

"Whether the golden man has called or not, there is no definite news." "But we all know that the golden man is not far from the capital. He appeared on Jingdong road before, so we should be prepared for the worst," he said

On one side, the officials of the five cities army and Horse Department suddenly became nervous because of his arrival, but the people were not more frightened by this dangerous warning as expected. On the contrary, hearing this sentence seems more reassuring than the government's insistence that it is all right in advance and that the golden man will not fight to whitewash peace.

"Then let's get out of town." The people cried, "let's run for our lives."

"It's really dangerous, so we can't open the gate now, and we don't go out of the city." Ning Yan said in a deep voice, "think about it. If you go out of the city and meet the golden man in the wilderness, will it be safer than here?"

He said and pointed to the gate behind him.

"There are at least tall, thick and strong city gates and walls."

The crowd followed him.

The walls of the capital are even more tall and solid in the night.

Ning Yan raised the sword in his hand again, pointing to the soldiers and officials of the five cities' military and horse departments around him, and pointing to the city guards dressed in neat clothes on the city wall.

"There are soldiers and swords here."

This is also true. It's not that we don't know this truth. We just panic for a time and just want to escape.

"Don't be impatient. With the city and us, even if the golden man calls, you can keep everyone safe."

The people calmed down, and those who surrounded and crashed into the city gate retreated slowly.

"Please follow the government's arrangement and don't surround the gate." Ning Yan said, taking the sword behind him, "I'll guard the city gate for you."

After that, he strode to the gate, followed by Ning Xi and his servants.

Looking at Ning Yan coming, the people besieged at the city gate finally let him open the way and looked at ease.

"Lord Ning is here."

"Yes, the imperial court will make arrangements."

"The emperor is still there. How could the golden man come in?"

One voice after another made the gate noisy again, but the noise was different from the previous panic, but it was reassuring.

The officials of the military and Horse Department of the five cities recovered, relaxed and began to command and arrange the people to disperse and let them return to different streets to have a rest.

The noise in front of the city gate faded, and the officers and soldiers above and below the city gate were relieved.

"Fortunately, Lord Ning, you are here." The official on duty said with fear on his face and wiped his sweat with his sleeve, "otherwise the city gate will be washed down by the people."

Ning Yan nodded to him.

"No need to say more." He said, "keep your guard in all directions."

The official replied that the guards on the gate were ordered to disperse, clenched their weapons and aimed at the dark night outside the city wall. Because they were too nervous, they didn't notice the worry in Ning Yan's eyes.

His presence temporarily calmed the people, but if

………..

……….

At this time, in the Imperial City, I heard the startling voice from the emperor's bedroom. Because of the riots in the street, the ministers who rushed to the imperial palace to report to the discussion couldn't wait any longer.

They were stopped in front of the palace gate for a long time. It was easy to move out of the previous special case. There were old ministers holding the accessories given by the emperor. The forbidden army had to open the palace gate and let them in. Then they were stopped outside the bedroom Palace by eunuchs. The East was shining after this toss.

This can go directly to the morning.

"Your Majesty, your majesty, it's not good." They shouted and rushed in, but the voice suddenly stopped and looked at the hall unbelievably.

The curtain in front of the Dragon bed has been lifted by the waiter who came in, and the lights are also lit. The empty dragon bed is illuminated, and the bed is neat without any trace of sleep.

What about your majesty?

"Your Majesty, it's gone..." muttered a minister.
