After a nearly broken battle during the day, Dongguan City tonight is particularly quiet.
Listening to those neat footsteps echoing in the street, there was no peeping sight in the cracks of the doors on both sides.
Today, some people in the city set fire to rob the city gate. Finally, the bodies were not sent to Zhujing temple, but hung outside the city gate for drying.
The families of these people were treated as prisoners. It is said that they will be called to dig a pit to death in the future.
The knife was lying on a roof with a bag of dried meat at hand. From time to time, he took out one and chewed it hard, staring at the yard opposite.
Lin Qun'an and Chang Jianxun are also on the same roof, but they don't need to lie down.
Chang Jianxun looked around, then took out a small jar of wine and said, "Lord Lin, take a breath?"
Lin Qun'an's throat surged for a moment, and he refused hard: "uncle didn't open the ban, I dare not."
Chang Jianxun took out another large piece of beef jerky and said proudly, "my lord doesn't care about these. As long as we don't delay things, we can drink whatever we want."
Don't drink in wartime. This is an iron rule. Otherwise, if you miss something because of wine or make a wrong judgment, the Lord will kill you like a chicken.
Chang Jianxun drank alone. After waiting for a while, seeing that there was no movement around, he put down the small jar and asked strangely, "why don't my Lord and xinghebo do it directly?"
Lin Qun'an smelled the wine and wished he could kick the goods down. When he heard the speech, he said lazily, "that's the trusted lieutenant general of your majesty. He didn't even mess with the British Duke and Lord Huang. If you can't find evidence, who knows if your majesty will convict."
Zhu Di's temperament is unpredictable. Even Zhu gaoxu can't guarantee what will happen after directly taking the man, so after discussing with Fang Xing, there was the scene tonight.
Chang Jianxun put down the wine jar and said comfortably, "how dare that guy? If he didn't dare, let's go back to bed."
Zhu gaoxu was also impatient. After a few rounds in the back hall, he said to Fang Xing, "what if Liu Xiaoya doesn't wake up tomorrow?"
Fang Xingduan sat and said, "Liu Xiaoya's high fever has subsided. It's a matter of time before she wakes up. Even if she doesn't wake up tomorrow, the Lord can't wait. Does that person have a deeper determination than the Lord?"
"That's right. I'm not surprised that Mount Tai collapsed in front of me. Well, just wait."
Zhu gaoxu was praised by Fang Xing and immediately pretended to be a Confucian general, but his body moved from time to time. At first glance, he was impatient.
Fang woke up and looked at the shadow of the candle on the wall. He remained silent for a long time.
When Zhu gaoxu couldn't sit still, Fang woke up and said slowly, "Lord, we have to be prepared. I'm afraid they will take risks."
"What risks?"
Hearing the speech, Zhu gaoxu quickly got up, moved his body and said, "can't they dare to escape?"
Fang woke up and said, "I'm afraid they want to... Rebel..."
"What?"
……
In the garrison, in the government, in the study.
A middle-aged man in plain clothes was roaring at Ma Qi.
"Ma Qi, you said there was no loophole in this matter at that time. As long as the rebels entered Dongguan City and killed Huang Fu and others, we would be fine, but now! Now!"
Men's palms are wide and bony. The skin on the face is also swarthy.
The dark face was twisted at this time. Looking at that appearance, I wanted to jump up and bite the horse Qi in front of me.
Ma Qi clenched his hands and said, "he Jiawei, do you want to kill our family?"
The man took back his fist and said angrily: "Ma Qi, if others knew about it, you and I could not escape the knife! Eh! My official forgot that you Ma Qi had already been stabbed and cut off his children's and grandchildren's roots, ha ha!"
"Shut up!"
Ma Qi patted the handrail and shouted, "do you want others to hear? Die!"
He Jiawei stopped laughing and said stiffly, "the Duke of Guizhou has started to check back to the camp. I just hid, but he's still checking down. Where's Xiao Danian?"
Ma Qi's body leaned back on the back of the chair, and the low laughter sounded like the horror of a night owl.
"Ho ho ho... Xiao Danian? Ho ho ho ho! No one in the world can find him, ho ho ho..."
At this time, the door was pushed open a gap from the outside, the night wind blew in, the candle shook, and the figure of Ma Qi swayed on the wall.
"Father in law..."
A head stuck out of the door. The man was startled by Ma Qi's laughter and shadow, and almost wanted to turn around and run away.
"Ho ho..... Ha!"
Ma Qi was also startled by the emerging head. When he saw that it was his confidant, he scolded: "what do you want to do secretly? Don't get in yet!"
As soon as the man came in, he said nervously, "father-in-law, there are many sergeants on the street."
"What?"
He Jiawei lost his voice and said, "are you going to do it?"
"Ma Qi..."
He Jiawei's face was full of murderous spirit under the candlelight. He picked up the horse Qi that had been paralyzed on the chair and said angrily, "if it is found, I will kill you first!"
Ma Qi was trembling all over, and gradually his eyes became more fierce. He tried his best to get rid of he Jiawei's hand and hissed: "since our family collected more tribute, you and I have no way back! Then kill the fish and break the net!"
He Jiawei was stunned and was about to drink and scold, but when he saw the madness in Ma Qi's eyes, he couldn't help stepping back, pointing to Ma Qi and trembling: "you... You... You want to... Rebel?!"
Ma Qi glanced at his new confidant and saw that he was trembling all over. He said in a shrill voice, "that Fang must have found something. It must be Liu Xiaoya who is going to wake up. What shall we do? Are we just waiting to die and waiting to be sent to Jinling City? Ah?"
"No! No! No..."
He Jiawei stumbled to his feet and said, "what about my family? What about my family waiting for Daming?"
"Family?"
Ma Qi disdained: "from the moment our family was stabbed, there was no family!"
He Jiawei closed his eyes and his chest fluctuated sharply. He opened his eyes and said faintly, "what are you going to do?"
Seeing that he Jiawei agreed, Ma Qi said with a smile: "our family thought about it yesterday. Some of our bodyguards and soldiers and confidants will call. At that time, we will raid the chief secretary's Yamen in one fell swoop. As long as we catch those people, Dongguan City will be ours!"
"Nonsense!"
He Jiawei disdained: "there are so many sergeants patrolling the street. As long as there is a little movement, the people around will come. How can we get out?"
"Do you think we are fools?"
Ma Qi said with a smile: "we have already sent someone to contact many Jiaozhi people in the city. Let them move first. Then we... Ho ho ho ho!"
He Jiawei, as the commander of the capital, still applauded in admiration after hearing the careful arrangement.
Ma Qi said proudly, "when it's done, we can also break away from each other. You and I are... Ha ha ha!"
