Xiao Yunhao put his arm around Wan Suyun's shoulders with concern.
Upon seeing this, everyone in the Xiao family tactfully left the living room, leaving the couple some space to be alone.
After everyone in the living room left, Wan Suyun couldn't help but turn around and lay in Xiao Yunhao's arms, sobbing and crying.
"Wow...the water in the water bag...is all burned..."
"You--wuwu--don't worry about drinking..."
“…”
Xiao Yunhao just kept patting Wan Suyun's back, silently comforting her.
After a moment, Wan Suyun wiped her tears and put the bag in Xiao Yunhao's hand.
“Let’s go…”
"You must come back safely!"
"Okay!" Xiao Yunhao hugged Wan Suyun tightly, turned around and strode out of the living room.
Wan Suyun chased to the living room door with red eyes.
Xiao Yunhao had already tiptoed up the wall and disappeared into the night...
........
"Why......"
Ma Ximing stood in the yard with his hands behind his back, looking at the starry sky and sighed heavily.
"Master, you've been sighing to the sky for half an hour. What's wrong?"
Madam Ma frowned and put a cloak on Ma Ximing.
"It's getting darker and the dew is heavier. Master, don't get cold..."
"Why......"
Ma Ximing raised his hand to tie his cloak and sighed heavily again.
Mrs. Ma was so anxious that she almost raised her hand to slap Ma Ximing on the back.
He kept sighing "Ah, ah, ah", but what happened?
Madam Ma took a deep breath, suppressed her anger, looked at Ma Ximing and asked patiently,
"What did the master see?"
"Is it about the drought?"
Madam Ma frowned. "Didn't the Emperor summon thirty Taoists to pray for rain outside the city gate in ten days?"
"I see that the altar is built quite high and is still under construction. Maybe it will alleviate the drought."
She had never seen such a high altar for praying for rain. It looked to be at least ten feet high.
Ma Ximing sighed and shook his head.
"I already knew this prayer for rain wouldn't bring any rain."
"The rain is coming from the northwest. A new Purple Star Emperor has formed there. When the Purple Star Emperor moves over to the capital, the drought will naturally ease."
"A new Purple Star Emperor!" Madam Ma's eyes widened in shock.
"You mean that the Xiao family really rebelled?"
In the northwest, apart from the Xiao family's private soldiers, no one else has the ability to rebel.
Can the Xiao family's private soldiers of only 30,000 or 40,000 really compete with Emperor Wu of Liang's million-strong army?
Mrs. Ma looked at Ma Ximing with some hesitation.
“Huh~~”
Ma Ximing breathed a sigh of relief, "It must be a rebellion."
"The Imperial Star of the Capital has declined, its destiny has come to an end, and the Daliang Dynasty is powerless to recover..."
"Ah!?" Mrs. Ma's heart skipped a beat.
"Didn't Zhao Cheng lead the imperial guards in a rebellion in the south? Will the three factions come together to fight?"
This is really a mess.
However, she thought that those rebels were not enough for Emperor Wu of Liang to deal with.
After all, the Daliang Dynasty’s million-strong army was no exaggeration.
"Ha!" Ma Ximing laughed dryly, "Zhao Cheng is just a clown, not to be feared. He's long gone."
"It's northwest..."
Ma Ximing frowned and stared at the sky for a while.
"Madam, go pack your things now. While the altar is being built at the gate of the capital, it's a chaotic time. Take your family and leave the capital as soon as possible."
We can't wait any longer. If we wait any longer, he won't be able to escape.
"Master, then you----"
"Leave me alone, I'll catch up with you later."
Ma Ximing interrupted Madam Ma and said, "Listen to me and clean up quickly."
"I can't go with you for the time being. It's easy for people to find me."
"Just bring some dry food and travel light. Don't let others notice..."
"Also, don't alarm the maids and servants in the mansion. Just take me, my son, my wife, and my grandson and quietly leave the city."
"By the way, everyone change into civilian clothes and leave as soon as the city gates open tomorrow morning..."
"Remember, don't let this information out, not to anyone..."
"If mom and the others ask, just say you went to the farm for a few days..."
“.......”
Ma Ximing explained to Madam Ma in detail.
"Alright, just do it. Once you're out of town, head northwest."
Ma Ximing urged hurriedly and walked out.
"I'm going out for a while."
"Master, where are you going so late?"
Mrs. Ma was feeling sad because she was about to part with Ma Ximing. She saw Ma Ximing hurriedly finish his instructions and get ready to go out.
She hurriedly chased after him and asked.
"I'm going to find the Minister of Revenue, Wan Yuandong. You hurry up and pack up..."
Ma Ximing urged and strode out of the Ma Mansion.
