Chapter 246: Being Stabbed to Save Someone
Su Ruojin didn't know what Zhao Lan's mission was. The rebels suddenly attacked again, and the battle drums sounded again. Prince Wei and others hurriedly left, and thousands of soldiers rushed to the city gate, working together to defend Kyoto.
She turned around.
Ye Huaizhen asked, "Second Madam, where are we going?"
"Go to the Princess's Mansion."
She is going to find her brother.
Along the way, all kinds of teams including civilians, patrolmen, yamen runners, and imperial guards were rushing in different directions. Su Ruojin and others walked along the street, stopping and avoiding each other, and moved towards the princess's mansion.
As she walked...she suddenly stopped.
"Auntie Zhen, something's wrong!"
While Ye Huaizhen was protecting Su Ruojin, he looked around alertly. When he heard the young lady suddenly speak, he turned around and looked at her, "Second Madam, what's the matter?"
Su Ruojin quickly hid in the alley. Before she could say anything, the soldiers coming towards her on the street swung their swords and slashed at the pedestrians. Most of these pedestrians were logistics women who were boiling water and cooking for the soldiers defending the city.
When they saw the killing, the women screamed and fled in all directions.
The soldiers rushed towards Su Ruojin while killing people, and her was obviously their target.
Su Ruojin quickly drew out the short knife for protection and prepared to meet the enemy.
How could Ye Huaizhen and Mao Ya let her be in danger? They quickly attacked from the left and right.
A group of soldiers rushed forward with swords drawn, "All of you, die here."
In a blink of an eye, the two groups of people started fighting each other.
In the dark, Hua Ping, Mangzhong and the secret guards heard the shouting and immediately joined the fight.
The soldiers expected that Su Ruojin had guards, but they didn't expect the guards to be so powerful. They didn't even touch a hair on her body. They were all ruthless and vicious, and every sword they used was deadly.
"Go, go quickly." Hua Ping entered the center of the killing circle and finally got a chance to kill.
Human life is at stake. Su Ruojin knows her own strengths and weaknesses, so she quickly looks for an opportunity to escape.
"Don't let that bitch get away."
Who wants to kill her? Su Ruojin had no time to think. She took out lime powder from her pocket and shouted to Hua Ping and others, "Run south."
Hua Ping, Ye Huaizhen and others rushed south when they heard her shout, but suddenly turned around and ran north. Su Ruojin seized this critical moment and threw the lime powder in her hand.
The north wind was howling, causing the lime powder to fly all over the faces of the soldiers.
Su Ruo and his group took the opportunity to escape into the depths of the alley.
When the soldiers opened their eyes and looked again, there was no trace of Su Ruojin and others.
"Boss, what should I do?"
"Go open the city gate."
"Yes, boss."
The group turned around and ran towards the city gate.
After escaping one group of soldiers, they were met by another group. This group of people stabbed anyone they saw passing by and smashed any door they saw. They did all kinds of evil.
Su Ruojin and his group quickly avoided and fled to another alley, but the situation was the same in the other alley.
Mao Yahu was standing in front of Su Ruojin. Seeing this, she was horrified. "Jin Niang, when did the rebels sneak into the city?"
"It's probably more than just the rebels."
"Are there any more bad guys?" Mao Ya held the spear tightly and hid in the corner of the alley. She couldn't understand why there were suddenly so many bad guys in the capital.
Hua Ping and Su Ruojin looked at each other, and both saw disbelief in each other's eyes. Could it be that these people wearing Dayin Dynasty military uniforms were Liaoxia people?
Oh my God, if this is true, then won’t the Dayin Dynasty be destroyed?
Not daring to think any further, Su Ruojin and the others hurried to the princess's mansion. Before they reached the princess's mansion, the street they passed by was filled with soldiers fighting, blood splattered, and soldiers fell to the ground everywhere.
Su Ruojin and Hua Ping were all shocked. Could it be that the Princess's Mansion was...
"Ajin, do you still want to go look for Dalang?"
At this time, Hua Ping could no longer care about other people. He only wanted to protect Su Ruojin's safety. However, he also knew that the young lady must see Su Dalang, otherwise she would not run away with him.
Sure enough, Su Ruojin replied, "I must see my brother no matter what."
Hua Ping took a deep breath, raised his sword and asked two secret guards to come out. Together, they protected Su Ruojin and rushed towards the princess's mansion.
That night, the city of Bianjing was like hell on earth. There was killing everywhere, rivers of blood everywhere, and people fleeing for their lives everywhere, whether they were common people or wealthy nobles.
It was not until dawn that Su Ruojin and others went around to the northwest corner of the princess's mansion. Hua Ping was about to climb the wall and jump in when a guard from the princess's mansion rushed out.
"Don't fight, I am a subordinate of Prince Zhao."
The guards then stopped and, after seeing who was who, led the man into the princess's mansion.
As soon as they entered from the back door, they heard noisy footsteps. The guards quickly pulled them behind the rockery, and in a blink of an eye, they disappeared behind the rockery.
It was not until they met Princess Yuehua that Su Ruojin and others realized that the princess's mansion had been looted and many guards had died.
When Su Dalang saw his sister, he ignored his injuries and rushed over to hug her tightly, thinking that he would never see her again in this life.
The Xue family father and son were also sitting on the ground, covered in wounds.
At this moment, as long as you are still alive, you are lucky.
After a while, Su Ruojin finally recovered and knelt down in front of Princess Yuehua, "Thank you for saving my life, Your Highness."
Yuehua was half-slumped in the chair, and she didn't even seem to have the strength to look at Su Ruojin.
Su Ruojin looked around and her uncle was not there.
She then quietly sat aside, looked up, and seemed to hear the sounds of killing on the ground.
I don’t know how long it took, but a cold air came in.
Princess Yuehua sat up suddenly, "Shao Bai?"
A guard came in and said, "Princess, Su Changshi is helping Prince Wei defend the city."
"What about the city, what about the palace?"
Princess Yuehua asked twice, which were exactly what Su Ruojin and others wanted to ask, what was the situation in the city and what was the situation in the palace.
The guard said, "Lu Shaoqing led the Imperial Guards to fight the rebels who had infiltrated the city, and General Ning stayed in the palace to ensure the safety of His Majesty."
Rebels? Aren't there Liaoxia people?
Sitting in the dark room, Su Ruojin didn't remember the time until she was starving. She didn't know what time it was.
Princess Yuehua tried to leave the dark room to look for Su Yanzu several times, but was persuaded by the people around her. When she was so hungry that she could not bear it any longer, she waved her hand to the housekeeper who advised her, "If Shaobai gets into trouble, I want you to pay for his funeral."
The housekeeper wanted to persuade her again, but Princess Yuehua pushed her away and she left.
Su Ruojin also wanted to go out, but Su Dalang held her back tightly and shook his head at her.
She sighed secretly and sat down on the ground dejectedly.
Since the princess left, she never came back, but someone sent her dry food. Su Ruojin and others ate the dry food and drank cold water. When they wanted to sleep, they leaned against the wall and slept. When they woke up, they just sat there stupidly.
After two or three days, the princess had them taken out of the dark room.
When she first came out, the light was dazzling and she covered her eyes for a while before she got used to it.
"Ajin——"
Su Ruojin slowly opened her eyes, "Uncle."
Su Yanzu was injured, his arm was wrapped in white gauze and blood was oozing out.
She ran up to him quickly, "Uncle." and looked at his injuries.
Su Yanzu looked at his disheveled niece and said, "The emperor has passed away."
What?
Everyone who came out of the dark room was shocked. They wanted to ask, but they didn't dare to ask casually.
Su Yanzu told them calmly and simply, "Yang Jingzi killed Emperor Yuanping."
"Where are the others?" He wouldn't kill one emperor and then defect to another.
Su Yanzu seemed to know what his niece was thinking, "He escaped."
"Where are you escaping to?" For some reason, Su Ruojin's heart was beating wildly. She felt like she was finally going to hear the answer after all these years.
Sure enough, in the next sentence, Su Yanzu replied, "Liaoxia."
Su Ruojin took a deep breath, "I knew it... I knew it..." Suddenly, she seemed to think of something, "Where is Madam Yang?"
Su Yanzu frowned and said, "At a time like this..." Who would care about Madam Yang?
Su Ruojin ran away, asking as he ran, "Uncle, when did the man surnamed Yang escape?"
"Early this morning."
"What time is it now?"
"It's the right time."
Si time...ten o'clock in the morning.
Su Ruojin shouted, "Uncle Hua, horse... horse..."
Hua Ping followed Su Ruojin and ran at full speed. After a while, they got a horse. The two of them mounted their horses and headed straight for Yang's Mansion.
Su Yanzu: ...
Princess Yuehua came over and looked at the young lady who had already run away. "What is she doing..."
"Probably to rescue Madam Yang."
Yuehua didn't have time to care about these things. She said, "Follow me into the palace."
Emperor Yuanping was killed, King Wei was assassinated, and only King Yan was left from the previous emperor's lineage. At this moment, he was leading his army to fight against the Liaoxia army that was heading south, and had already driven the Liaoxia army northward for three hundred miles.
Although she hadn't eaten anything for several days, Su Ruojin still rushed to Yang's house as if she was injected with chicken blood.
"Auntie...Auntie..."
When Aunt Zhang heard Su Er Niang's voice, she felt like she heard the sound of nature and ran out in a hurry, "Su Er Niang, help me, Su Er Niang, help me!"
Su Ruojin ran straight to Madam Yang's bedroom.
In the bedroom, Mrs. Yang was dying, breathing out more than breathing in.
Su Ruojin slowly walked to her bedside, "Auntie, this is..."
"I was stabbed by that damned bastard."
Only then did Su Ruojin discover that there was a large blood stain on Madam Yang's chest.
"knife……"
"The man surnamed Yang pulled it out after it was pierced."
so……
"Aunt..." Su Ruojin fell to her knees beside the bed, "Aunt..."
Aunt Zhang knelt down in front of Su Ruojin, "Second Madam, please save our Madam, please."
save?
Su Ruojin wiped away her tears, "Uncle Hua..."
People like Hua Ping live on the edge of a knife. The Ken family has a knife wound doctor.
The young lady's eyes were filled with tears. Hua Ping nodded, reached out to feel Madam Yang's pulse, and then asked Mangzhong, who had followed her, to find a doctor.
Doctors have their own treatment methods. Su Ruojin also tried to find ways to help Madam Yang keep breathing. She found some ginseng and gave her salt water to drink. Anyway, she would try any method that could help keep her breathing alive.
The doctor Hua Ping called for the knife wound found that the knife was stabbed a little crookedly, which meant that as long as Mrs. Yang could be kept alive and a way to reduce her high fever was found, there would be hope of survival.
Su Ruojin guarded Madam Yang for a day and a night, and finally rescued her from the King of Hell.
Unexpectedly, Madam Yang, who had regained consciousness, wanted to commit suicide. Su Ruojin was so angry that she cursed, "Well, then you go and die. If you die, Arong will not even have a mother, and will be an orphan from now on. Not only that, but you will also be scolded by the world as the son of an enemy spy. Then she will also be worse off than death, so she will kill herself with a knife. Let's all die."
Madam Yang, who was about to die without caring about the wound on her heart, was scolded by the young lady and paused. After a long time, she cried, "Then tell me how we should live."
Su Ruojin breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she was no longer seeking death. She sat down beside the bed and stroked her back. "Aunt, this is not your fault."
"So what if it's not my fault? Who would have thought that the person I was sleeping with was actually a spy from the enemy country, and that I even gave birth to his children. I..." How could she face the world?
"I told you, Auntie, it's because the enemy is too cunning, it's not our fault."
Madam Yang looked ashen. It wasn’t her fault, so what? If the world didn’t think so, she couldn’t live any longer.
Su Ruojin said, "Aunt, there are wars everywhere now. The noble families in the capital have also suffered countless casualties in this rebellion. Everyone is thinking about how to survive. Who has the time to care about us?"
Madam Yang looked at the earnest young lady and forced a smile, "Ajin, thank you for saving me, but I really can't help it..."
Su Ruojin reached out and covered Madam Yang's mouth. "Aunt, do you still remember that carpenter Zhang?"
Madam Yang: ...
"The young prince has hidden him away in a place where no one knows about it. You can live a quiet life there too."
"I……"
Su Ruojin advised again, "You have been unhappy these years. Now that you have finally gotten rid of this scumbag, isn't it wonderful to find a place where no one is around and live for yourself?"
"Live for yourself?"
"Yes, auntie, believe me, without this scumbag, you can take Arong and his siblings to a place where no one knows about you and live an ordinary and stable life. Isn't it great?"
"I……"
"Could it be that Auntie is reluctant to leave the prosperity of the capital?"
"Of course not."
"Don't you think my aunt has no money?"
"Of course I do."
Su Ruojin smiled brightly, "Look, having money, free time, children and daughters, living your own life, how wonderful it is, don't you yearn for it?"
"I……"
Su Ruojin didn't let her think about the relationship between husband and subject, worldly views, or spies from the enemy country. It was not her fault, so why should a woman bear all this?
She kept brainwashing Mrs. Yang, making her full of longing for her future life.
Finally, Mrs. Yang, who had been independent for many years, was finally persuaded by the young lady, "Can I really live like this?"
"Of course." Su Ruojin held her hand, "As long as you want, there is nothing impossible. We can help you."
Madam Yang looked at Su Ruojin for a long time without moving.
Although Mrs. Yang remained silent, she no longer resisted taking medicine. Su Ruojin stayed with her all the time and even talked to her about the enemy country's spy - Yang Jingzi.
"His real name is Gou Chunwen. He is the youngest son of the Liaoxia Kingdom's Gou family. He is talented in both civil and military affairs and has great ambitions. He faked his death and got a fake identity to sneak into the capital of our Great Yin Dynasty. He used the alias Wu Wen and became friends with the real Lord Yang. But he came with a purpose after all, so almost no one knew that Lord Yang was his friend, and no one knew when he replaced Lord Yang."
Madam Yang asked nervously, "Don't even the people in the Imperial City Department know when Yang Jingzi was replaced?"
