Gu Nanxi died from overwork and subsequently bound to a 'Kind Mother System', transmigrating into a book as the matriarch of a Marquis's estate.
The entire Marquis's household...
The Emperor of Great Zhou fled.
Master Tong ran away.
Lord Li ran away.
General Li, who was praised as the savior of the Great Zhou, protected them and ran away with them.
By the time Fang La reacted, the group of dignitaries and nobles had already run faster than rabbits and boarded the prepared ship.
Fang La felt very distressed. How much money did these people take away?
"Attack the city!"
The enemy has taken the initiative to open the city gate. If we don’t enter now, when will we enter?
The chaotic army was like hungry jackals, trying to rush into the city gate.
Su Xuanming shouted at the top of his lungs: "Close the city gate!"
"Don't close it! We haven't left yet." Duke Ji was panting.
Unfortunately, the woman in the family was always dragging her feet. She was reluctant to throw away this and that, and was always reluctant to take them away. She was so slow in her actions that she was left at the end of the escape team.
The imperial guards at the north gate looked up at Su Xuanming. Who should they listen to?
"Close the city gates! If the rebels get in, we'll all be dead."
The imperial guards shuddered and used all their strength to close the heavy city gate.
The chaotic army ran at full speed, their chests heaving violently.
Twenty steps, ten steps, five steps...one step!
Bang!
The city gates were closed.
"I'm your mother! I can't give birth to a baby without an asshole!"
Seeing that they were just a little bit away from entering Kyoto City, the rebel soldiers were extremely disappointed and started cursing.
Fang La shouted from the city gate: "Su Dalang, why don't we cooperate? The Great Zhou Emperor has fled, why are you trying to stop him? Open the city gate and let us in. We only want money, not territory. When Duke Yun arrives, we will hand over Kyoto to you."
"The Emperor of Great Zhou has always disliked Duke Yun. He appointed you as the governor of Kyoto because he wanted to see us fighting each other and he would be the winner in the end. Su Dalang, you are a smart man. The Emperor of Great Zhou has only left you with a few manpower. If we attack the city at all costs, you will not be able to withstand it."
"We are all friends, why hurt each other? I want money, you want territory, we get the best of both worlds!"
As the sun rose, many people in Kyoto had learned that the young emperor had abandoned the city and fled. They were filled with panic and didn't know where to go.
They flocked to the South Gate, wanting to follow the emperor's footsteps and escape from Kyoto.
But the city gates were closed and the rebel army was blocking outside the city. The leader of the rebel army was still persuading the Kyoto Governor Su Xuanming to lay down his arms and surrender.
The common people looked up. The city wall was too high. They couldn't see where Su Xuanming was. They could only guess that the straightest figure should be him.
Will Lord Su agree? After the rebel army enters the city, where should they go? Should they find a place to hide?
Su Xuanming had no time to make any harsh remarks. He had only 10,000 men under his command, and it was very difficult to defend this magnificent city.
Fang La waited a long time for Su Xuanming's reply but he knew that the other party was unwilling to cooperate.
He gritted his teeth and said fiercely, "If you don't accept my toast, you will be punished! Get ready, we will attack the city now!"
He was afraid of Duke Yun, but Duke Yun was far away in Yunzhou. Even if he grew wings, he could not fly to Kyoto immediately.
In the face of huge interests, they can kill Buddhas and gods if they stand in their way!
Fang La was determined to fight to the death, using human lives as ladders to climb the city walls, using arrows, stones, and all kinds of equipment.
They no longer considered that they had run out of arrows. What would happen if Duke Yun came?
They only wanted to capture the city in front of them, and enjoy life today! First, they wanted to get the overwhelming wealth, and as for what to do in the future, they would think about it later!
Obviously, Su Xuanming, with only 10,000 people, was completely unable to withstand such a crazy attack.
"The west gate has been breached!"
"The East Gate was breached!"
This is how you defend a city. Once a hole is broken, it will spread rapidly like a spider web and eventually collapse completely.
"Da Lang, let's go! We can't hold on any longer!" The Yunzhou guards surrounded Su Xuanming and protected him in the middle.
Su Xuanming nodded.
They had to take advantage of the chaos to leave the city, otherwise if they were caught by Fang La, they would definitely become bargaining chips in his negotiations with A Niang.
The rebel army finally took control of the royal city.
The resentment and greed they had been holding on to for a long time were completely released at this moment.
This is what the saints and leaders allow and are happy to see, and it is what they are all doing.
They plundered whatever they saw in the city.
They can do whatever they want. Treasures and women belong to whoever sees them first.
Fang La and others rushed straight to the palace.
The emperor fled in such a hurry that he only took the most precious things with him. The palace was full of treasures, and even the pillars were plated with gold.
I heard that the floor tiles in the palace are worth more than gold! Pry them away!
Su Xuanming saw that people were running for their lives everywhere, people were robbing everywhere, and the shops that had finally been opened were closed in a hurry.
There were also some people who were obviously not rioters who were smashing other people's doors with sticks.
It's a mess!
Kyoto is in chaos!
The rebel soldiers looted property and would strike any enemy who showed any resistance with a knife.
As history books say, human nature collapses bit by bit.
They initially came for wealth, but after being plundered two or three times, ordinary families were left without a single penny.
As a result, the women in the house suffered.
The chaotic army thought that after all the hard work, if they didn't make any money, they had to get something else as compensation.
This happens three or five times, and the evil of human nature is infinitely magnified. They experience the pleasure of controlling life and death, and become immersed in it, unable to extricate themselves.
The common people in Kyoto were like headless flies, trying to find a safe place.
The Prince of Jiguo wants to return to the Jiguo Mansion as the familiar place can give him a sense of security.
The wife of the Prince of Jiguo slapped him and said, "If you want to die, don't take us with you."
She decided to go to the slums at the foot of the city. The rebel army would definitely loot the imperial city and various mansions first. At this time, there would be fewer rebel troops in the slums.
Thinking of this, she took off her gorgeous clothes and hairpin, grabbed a handful of dirt from the ground, and smeared it on her face and neck.
When the others saw this, they seemed to have found their backbone and began to follow suit.
On the way to the slums, they met a man whose leg was broken by being stepped on. He was huddled against the wall, wailing in pain, holding a child with a gray face tightly in his arms.
The wife of the Prince of Jiguo took a quick look and frowned. This person looked so familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere before.
She shook her head, lowered her head, and continued walking forward.
The whole family was terrified.
The doors of many houses were open, with corpses hanging from the door beams with ropes.
The corpse was swaying, its tongue sticking out, and its eyeballs almost popping out of their sockets.
The Prince of Jiguo was frightened to death!
The wife of the Prince of Jiguo ignored him. At this moment, the most important thing was to save her own life. Her son was still waiting for her to reunite in Yunzhou!
She suppressed the strong feeling of nausea and carefully moved through the alley.
"Madam! You..." The charming concubine was like a conspicuous bag.
Madam Jiguo said in a low voice: "If you want to be served, go and serve."
Of course, Xianliangbao would not help a fainted person. Are you kidding? We are running for our lives now!
Duke Ji was old, and when he saw this scene, he said nothing, but a tear silently flowed from the corner of his eye. (End of this chapter)
