Chapter 206: 206 Beijing Rebellion 2

Chapter 206 Chapter 206 Rebellion in Beijing 2

Zhang Shun refused to go, so there was no other way. Su Ruojin had no choice but to lead everyone back to catch the man hiding in the thatched house. As soon as he reached the entrance of the village, green smoke billowed in the direction of the thatched house.

Ye Huaizhen shouted: "Not good." He ran over.

Su Ruojin moved her legs to follow. After just two steps, she saw a group of ragged people on the village path, brandishing sticks, rushing into houses, robbing households, killing dogs and beating people. The villagers screamed in fright, and some fled home. Some took refuge in the fields.

She was so frightened that she stopped and her eyes widened - is this a mess?

Ye Huaizhen stopped when he encountered the rioters. He suddenly pulled out his sword and pulled it out in an instant. The sharp blade pierced his eyes in the sunlight.

The mob that was charging and killing stopped for a moment.

The sun was blazing in the sky and the steam was steaming. Two groups of people and horses faced each other, and they were so quiet that they couldn't even breathe.

Su Ruojin also held her breath and quietly looked at the thatched house that was burning more and more. She saw that the roof was about to burn down, and it seemed that she could not find any clues.

The rioters were restrained by Ye Huaizhen. The villagers quietly showed their heads and looked this way. The villager who had guided Su Ruojin and others an hour ago saw them turning back and restraining the rioters, and ran over excitedly.

"Su Xiaodong's family...Su Xiaodong's family...save us...help us drive away these rioters."

Wang San's shout broke the balance between Ye Huaizhen and the mob. They came to their senses, bared their teeth and bared their eyes, and rushed forward with a shout, "Give them all to me. Kill these rich people and rob them of all their belongings. I won't." I’m worried that I don’t have money to buy food…”

They all attacked Ye Huaizhen.

“Looking for death!” Ye Huaizhen swung his knife forward.

No matter in the past life or in this life, Su Ruojin has seen this scene before. This is not a gang fight of ordinary gangsters in later generations. These people who have been forced to survive have gone to extremely vicious levels. In order to survive, they will do anything now. Gotta come out.

The unlucky villagers and their group became the targets of burning, killing and looting.

In order to survive, Su Ruojin had long forgotten her fear and took out her own protective weapon—a dagger—to attack the crowd.

“Jin Niang—”

“Little boss——”

Mao Ya and Zhang Shun also rushed into the crowd.

In order to survive, even if they are unarmed, they can fight their way to the sky, let alone a group of desperate people.

The fighting was more cruel than Su Ruojin imagined. She suddenly realized that if the fight continued like this, she might not be able to escape. What should she do?

Although there are only a few people on Su Ruojin's side, they are all serious students, and they gradually gain the upper hand even against these extremely vicious people.

The villagers were no longer afraid when they saw the rioters being beaten to the ground and crying for their fathers and mothers.

Wang San shouted, "Uncles and brothers, take shovels, sickles, rakes, whatever can hurt people, hurry up... hurry up, beat them down, tie them up, and take them to the government to collect rewards."

At this time, no one wanted to reward them with money, and just wanted to send these plague gods away. However, the villagers listened to Wang San's call, and everyone took home supplies and joined Su Ruojin and the others in the battle.

The power of many people is great, and after a while, the small group of rioters was restrained.

When he stopped, Su Ruojin didn't even take a breath before giving Wang San a thumbs up, "Uncle Wang, good job. You must be the next one."

Wang San was embarrassed to be praised by the young lady.

It was the real Li Zheng who came out and asked, "Su Xiaodong's family, what should we do with these people?"

Su Ruojin wiped the dagger with the corner of her skirt. She didn't expect that one day, after she injured (killed) someone, she could still talk to them calmly. Even she herself found it incredible.

"Uncle Wang's suggestion is very good. No matter dead or alive, we will all be tied to the government."

When Wang San was praised by others, his vanity suddenly swelled. When he really wanted to claim his status as a leader, Shi Xiaoer ran over from the entrance of the village, "Little boss, we are fine. There are a large number of refugees coming from the east carrying household items. There must be hundreds of people.”

It’s a mess, it’s really a mess!

At this time, it seems that there is no hope of going to the government.

Su Ruojin quickly said to Li Zheng, "Throw these people into the ancestral hall in your village, and then run away into the mountains as far as you can."

Li Zheng was still hesitant.

Su Ruojin couldn't care about him anymore. She turned around and ran away, "I'll go home and let my family flee to the mountains."

Ye Huaizhen and others saw the young lady running away and quickly followed her.

Without the backbone, the villagers don’t know what to do.

Wang San wanted to run away with Su Ruojin, but when he saw the injured refugees tending to tilt their heads, he quickly raised his shovel, and the cocked heads suddenly lost their breath.

Li Zheng finally came to his senses and said, "Come here, kidnap these people quickly and let's run for our lives."

Shi Xiaoer got on the carriage and ran all the way. When he passed through Wenshan Street, the street was already the same as in the village just now, and the rioters had already started smashing shops and grabbing things.

They dodged sticks and finally returned to the other courtyard. They did not dare to go through the front door and sneaked in from the back.

Shangguanyu and others had already heard the sounds of fighting and killing outside: "Second Lady, what should I do?"

"Everything food and valuables are stored in the cellar. We quickly enter the mountain through the bamboo forest behind and escape deeper."

Ye Huaizhen didn't move.

Su Ruojin slapped her forehead and said, "Sister Ye, Uncle Hua should be fine."

Ye Huaizhen shook his head. Her thoughts were completely opposite to the young lady's.

She analyzed: "If something happens to Uncle Hua, the thatched house will not be burned down."

Ye Huaizhen still didn’t believe it.

Su Ruojin analyzed again, "Yang..." As soon as he said one word, he realized that Yang Siniang was there and quickly changed his mind, "Uncle Hua may have gone to the capital to find the little prince."

Ye Huai really wanted to hear how Xiao Dongjia persuaded her, but she stopped after saying just one word. He immediately looked at the fourth lady of the Yang family who was staring at Xiao Dongjia. She suppressed all her doubts and prepared to use her own channels to explore Hua Huai. Flat trace.

Ah Jin had been busy, and Yang Siniang couldn't even say anything. Seeing that she was no longer busy, he quickly came over and hugged her arm, "A Jin, what's going on outside?" She could hear the sounds of beatings and killings, "Are there bandits? ?”

"almost."

Since there was no time, Su Ruojin coaxed her, "Hurry up and pack your things, let's go take refuge."

"Ah..." Yang Siniang has never experienced anything like this in her whole life. "Aren't you going back to Beijing?" The little lady didn't know that the capital was sealed off and there was already a fight inside.

Su Ruojin took her to pack her things. While packing, she briefly told the story of the death of the emperor in the capital and the rebellion of King Qi. The little girl was so frightened that she almost fainted: "Ajin...Ajin..." She was so frightened that Tuotao cried.

Su Ruojin had no time to coax her and asked Su Sanlang to look at her.

Almost half an hour later, after the Su family escaped from the bamboo forest behind, the front door was smashed open, and a group of rioters and bandits came in with knives, "Where are they...hurry and find them."

When the Su family fled halfway up the mountain, they found that even Dongshan Academy was not spared. They were all smashed open by the mob. Many scholars and students fled straight into the mountains and old forests.

It was chaotic all the way.

Until midnight, everyone, led by Shi Er, fled to a dry cave in the forest.

“Uncle Shi, this place is close to Yueshui Temple…”

“Yueshui Temple is opposite this hilltop.”

Unexpectedly, from the foot of Dongshan Mountain to the depths of the mountain forest, we would reach the top of the hill opposite Yueshui Temple. Su Ruojin remembered that there was a pavilion on the hillside behind Yueshui Temple, which seemed to be a place where Zhao Lan could be alone.

“How do you know there is a cave here?”

Shi Er smiled sheepishly, "At that time, the adults asked me to take care of..." Realizing that this was a secret of the Su family, he immediately changed his mouth, "This is the place where you can see the other side, but the people on the other side can't find it. So..." There is a saying that the blessings that are sown will one day be returned to those who spread the blessings.

It was less than a day's journey from three o'clock in the afternoon to three o'clock in the morning. Everyone was so tired that they didn't even have the energy to eat solid food. They simply spread out a few quilts and fell asleep.

It wasn’t until almost noon the next day that everyone woke up from hunger.

Su Ruojin led everyone to boil water and cook rice to fill their stomachs first.

While Shi Er's family was busy cooking, Ye Huaizhen pulled Su Ruojin aside and asked her what she said yesterday.

Su Ruojin made a long story short, "I suspect Mr. Yang is a part of the chaos in Beijing. I don't know whether he is taking sides or taking the opportunity to stir up trouble."

“Xiaodongjia means that if he is not a Liao Xia spy, then he is a prince’s man and takes the opportunity to seize the throne for a certain prince?”

"Well." Su Ruojin said, "If he is an enemy spy, then the Yin Dynasty will be in danger. I don't know how many people will die in this chaos in Beijing."

"Is it possible that he will bring the Liao Xia army into the capital?"

Su Ruojin shook his head: "That's not enough." If that's the case, they wouldn't be so paralyzed that they wouldn't even know where the Liao Xia army was stationed on the edge of the capital.

"But they will create chaos through killers, and even..." It is possible to kill princes and important court officials.

Ye Huaizhen heard what Su Ruojin said and didn't think she was talking nonsense. Even because of her status, she knew that many of the things Xiaodongjia said were even close to the incidents investigated by the Detective Department.

It’s just that the mastermind of this incident has been shrouded in mystery. Yang Jingzi appeared in everyone’s sight at this time, as if the clouds were clearing and the sun appeared.

But there is one thing Ye Huaizhen still doesn't understand. "We have investigated every lord's house in Beijing, and the Yang family has also been prominent. Yang Jingzi is an authentic member of the Yin Dynasty. What could cause him to rebel and become an enemy of the country?"

Su Ruojin glanced at Yang Siniang and said, "Rebellion is impossible, but is it possible that the real Ambassador Yang has actually disappeared from this world? And this person is..."

"How is that possible?" Even Ye Huaizhen, who was as calm and indifferent as he was, was shocked when he heard this. This was too unbelievable.

What kind of blow would it be like to turn an authentic Dayin person into an enemy spy?

“That’s the first situation. He belongs to a certain prince and has been dormant. When the time comes, he finally takes action.”

Ye Huaizhen's teeth felt cold, "Isn't it dangerous for Hua Sicha?"

After finishing the meal, when everyone stood outside the cave to cool off, they found many refugees around them.

Cheng Yingzhen grabbed her daughter's hand and said, "Ajin, we're all gone, what will your father do?" She now wished she could grow wings and go see her husband.

Su Ruojin held her mother's hand back and said, "Guard Zhang has already sent the news to the capital. It is estimated that there will be news tonight."

“Ah Jin…mother is afraid…”

 Feeling that someone on the hillside was looking this way, Su Ruojin quickly asked everyone to squat down and retreat into the cave.

In broad daylight, the entrance to the cave is blocked by trees and shrubs, so it is quite hidden, but there is almost no light. In broad daylight, it feels like it is at night.

No one dared to speak for fear of attracting chaos and bandits.

When people passed by at the bottom of the slope, their complaints told the people in the cave that they were the people who had taken refuge in the area near Dongshan.

Hide in the cave, worry or fall asleep accidentally.

Su Ruojin was the one who was so tired that she fell asleep. She didn't wake up until it was dark and Mao Ya came to ask her to have dinner. "What time is it?"

“At the end of Xu Shi (nine o’clock in the evening)”

No wonder Su Ruojin was so hungry that her stomach growled. Su Ruojin picked up a bowl of millet porridge and drank it. After a while, she finished one bowl and filled up a second bowl. Only then did she have time to take out a salted duck egg and make a sesame seed cake.

The entire cave was lit with a small candle and the light was dim.

Neither Ye Huaizhen nor Zhang Shun seemed to be in the cave.

"where are they?"

Mao Ya replied, "Guard Zhang looked at the entrance of the cave. Shopkeeper Ye seems to have gone downhill."

Su Ruojin probably went to receive the news. After finishing his meal, Su Ruojin wiped his mouth, walked out of the cave, stood next to Zhang Shun, and looked down the hillside with him.

“Are there any people who are fleeing now?”

Zhang Shun shook his head.

Looking up at the sky, dark clouds cover the sun, just like the current situation, which is completely dark.

“It looks like it’s going to rain.”

Zhang Shun nodded.

Cherish words like gold.

Su Ruojin glanced at him. He had been in Su Ji's shop for more than three years and was still unfamiliar with them. The quality of the guards such as Prince Zhao was quite high.

Unconsciously, Su Ruojin was sitting at the entrance of the cave halfway up the mountain, looking at the dark sky, thinking of Prince Zhao, who looked like an immortal, and wondered where he would be at this moment. As the deputy envoy of the Imperial City Department, you must be very busy!

Suddenly, lightning flashed, and a thunder almost deafened Su Ruojin's ears. She was so frightened that before she could react, a thunderstorm came down.

God.

Su Ruojin called out, "Brother Zhang, where is Shopkeeper Ye? Will it get wet in the rain?"

There was lightning and thunder, and he couldn't see or hear any movement down the hillside, so Su Ruojin had no choice but to enter the cave.

Mao Ya quickly brought a towel to dry her, and Yang Siniang leaned next to her, "A Jin, I'm afraid..."

“Don’t be afraid, everyone is here.”

This is your family.

Yang Siniang was embarrassed to say, "I miss my mother." If she had known better, she wouldn't have gone out to play.

Su Ruojin patted her hand and said, "Your mother must miss you too."

“Hmm…” The little lady was very fragile and started crying without even realizing it.

Su Ruojin was about to coax her, but the candles in the cave were so bright that she turned her head and looked towards the entrance of the cave.

The banished immortal master that I was talking about just now actually appeared in front of me.

She greeted him happily, "Prince Zhao, why are you here?"

Zhao Lan was covered in rain. When the young lady asked in surprise, the corners of her mouth raised, "I'm already wet, and you didn't even give me a towel."

“Ah! Just take it.” Su Ruojin patted her head in embarrassment.

Mao Ya held the towel in her hand and refused to hand it over.

Su Ruojin didn't notice anything was wrong with Mao Ya, so she reached out and pulled her over, intending to hand it to Zhao Lan.

Zhao Lan stretched out his hands, meaning, they are all wet, how to take them?

Su Ruojin:…
