Chapter 440: Widow's Face Disgusting
"Jingya, I feel something is wrong."
Cheng Ruoying was dressed in armor, looking heroic, and her sharp eyes swept across the huge but silent city of Yanjing.
"Should we retreat?"
"retreat."
Huo Jingya also had a bad feeling.
Although Uncle Yan had reported that the Grand Princess had already used all the troops and horses she could send out to besiege the Huo family army, and the scattered soldiers in the capital were only about 20,000 to 30,000 at most, she was very sensitive to danger after fighting for so long.
At this time, the capital should be in chaos.
Silence is impossible.
Just as the horse was about to turn around, chaotic howling came from the front.
A group of refugees, carrying large and small bags, and dragging their children and daughters, ran here.
"The fight has started! The fight has started! Run for your lives!"
"Who was fighting with whom?" Deputy Captain Zhang Ming grabbed a man and asked.
"The four great families are fighting! The eldest princess is a fake! The other three families want to kill the Hua family and surrender to the new master. The fight has started!"
Zhang Ming arrested several more people in succession, and they all said the same thing, even the children.
At the same time, the capital began to fall into chaos.
There was a chaotic sound.
In the distance, thick smoke rose from the location of the palace.
It can be seen that it is really a mess!
"Huo Jingya, Huo Jingya! My prince asks you to save the prince and the fourth wife Huo! They are imprisoned in the Hua Mansion!"
Someone in the crowd shouted.
"Prince Huaishan has rebelled! The Grand Princess has entered the palace to rescue the young emperor!
The Crown Prince and Madam Huo are in danger——"
"Do you know this person?" Cheng Ruoying asked Huo Jingya.
“I don’t know him!”
Huo Jingya grabbed the man.
He threatened sternly, "How dare you lie to me? I'm tired of living!"
"I dare not!"
The man dressed as a guard took out a half-carved wooden sculpture from his bosom.
Of course Huo Jingya could recognize it; it was Hua Buyan’s craftsmanship.
"Everything I said is true. I hope Miss Jingya can go and rescue them quickly. The Hua family has been imprisoned in the mansion by the old lady. I never thought that other noble families would join forces... Miss, I will die to prove my loyalty!"
The young guard wiped his neck and said, "Please..."
"Go to the Hua family and save people!" Huo Jingya was anxious.
"Wait." Cheng Ruoying stopped her.
"How about I take a few people to check it out first."
Although she was also anxious, after staying in the palace for so long, she knew that Yan Mingyu and the people around him were most afraid of the Grand Princess.
No matter what I do, the first thing I think about is how to hide it from her.
She always felt that such a powerful woman would not be unable to protect her own family.
"I'm afraid it's too late and my fourth sister-in-law will be in danger!"
Huo Jingya clenched her fists. She knew that the old witch was not simple, but...
“You don’t know, that old witch doesn’t care about other people’s lives except Hua Buyan.
If the Hua Mansion had guards, they would all be used to guard Hua Buyan!"
Now Cheng Ruoying didn't dare to waste any more time.
"Well then..."
"Captain Jingya! A letter from General Yan!" someone shouted.
Among the people, a ragged young man squeezed forward and handed over the letter.
In the past, Yan Hu's letters were always delivered to Sang Ning or Shao Qing, and sometimes circulated to other generals.
Huo Jingya had also seen it.
She unfolded it and saw that it was indeed Yan Hu's handwriting, with his seal on it.
"Uncle Yan said to dispatch 5,000 troops to the South City to intercept the Grand Princess's Black Armored Army and leave her isolated and helpless!"
"It seems that the old witch has indeed come to the palace to rescue the emperor!"
"Zhang Ming! You and Sister Ruoying take 5,000 men to South City, and I'll lead the men to the Hua Mansion! Let's split up!"
"good!"
…
Cheng Ruoying and Zhang Ming led their men southward. The further south they went, the quieter it became.
The two stopped again.
Anxiety emerged from the bottom of my heart again.
Without the noise, some sounds in the distance became clearer.
At the city gate, a signal arrow suddenly rose in the sky.
One after another, radiating densely.
"What's that signal?"
Every army has its own secret code, which Cheng Ruoying doesn't understand.
After reading it, Zhang Ming murmured, "Safe..."
Who is safe?
This is a signal to them.
Such a big event, naturally...
Got fooled?
"Who's leading the team up there? Hurry! The Black Armored Army has received orders and is heading towards the palace. Go and intercept them!"
There was a shout from not far away.
Zhang Ming and Cheng Ruoying looked over.
A tall and imposing man stood there, and he looked about 70% similar to Yan Meng.
"General Yan!"
Zhang Minggang's frightened heart suddenly dropped to his stomach.
He was about to take people over when Cheng Ruoying stopped him.
"Deputy Captain Zhang, look at General Yan's face, isn't it wrong?"
Because Cheng Ruoying had worn a mask for a long time, she had developed an instinct to look at people's faces very carefully.
General Yan's face was very stiff, and his eyes were staring without even blinking.
The more I look at it, the more wrong it seems!
Zhang Ming took a breath: He looks like a dead person!
"General Yan, how many of them are there?" Cheng Ruoying asked loudly.
Yanhu's mouth didn't move.
But there was a cold sneer.
Then, Yanhu's body fell straight to the side.
Revealing the figure behind the control.
"A total of eight thousand people!"
In an instant, many figures appeared around.
Black clothes, black face.
Black Armor Army.
How... is it possible?
"kill!"
…
At the same time, the team led by Huo Jingya also encountered the same thing.
Halfway through her walk, she stopped.
There was no such thing as the three major families besieging the Hua family.
When she was about to retreat, a group of black-armored soldiers appeared and blocked the road.
The eldest princess appeared.
"Huo Jingya, the little girl who used to play in the mud, can now lead troops into battle.
I really underestimated you."
"Old witch, I haven't seen you for a year, how come you look thirty years older? Could it be that you've done too many bad things, and the ghosts of the wronged are haunting you, keeping you awake at night?"
"You're such a sharp-tongued person! What I hate most is your unruly demeanor!"
The eldest princess thought of the past.
She actually thought about becoming a relative of Huo Zhennan.
After all, he guards the border, and his sons are all outstanding, making him an indispensable figure in Dongyang.
It would also be helpful if my grandson married her.
But Huo Jingya, this girl, was very naughty, unruly and disobedient despite her young age.
Not only was it of no help, it also led her grandson astray.
So, later on, she became more and more annoying.
Huo Jingya laughed exaggeratedly: "Who do you think you are? I have a mother and a father, I don't need your discipline!
If you have that much time, take care of your illegitimate sons and grandsons, and don't always focus on Xiao Yanzi to cause trouble.
Facing your widowed face all day is really disgusting, okay? "
You damn girl, your mouth is even more irritating than before!
The eldest princess looked gloomy.
He glanced at the team behind her.
"I heard that your elite army is very good at fighting together. They can attack when advancing and defend when retreating. A hundred men can defeat a thousand.
I wonder what their fighting power would be if they were dispersed?
"Two of my Black Armored Soldiers are fighting against one of you, so what?"
