Chapter 277: Death
In the middle of the night, the sound of war drums woke Zhu Huaizhen up.
Zhu Huaizhen rubbed his eyes and called Tu Mi softly.
"Your Highness, Xugu City has been broken..." Tu Mi whispered.
"Then what?" Zhu Huaizhen asked.
After saying that, Tu Mi pursed her lips and her eyes became moist.
"Tu Mi, go and take a look. You can't sleep anyway." Zhu Huaizhen sighed lightly.
After hearing this, Tumi turned and left.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Mingan hurried over, his body covered in blood.
"Zhenzhen, don't go out these days." Chen Mingan said in a deep voice.
After hearing this, Zhu Huaizhen said "Oh".
"Zhenzhen, are you so scared that you can't sleep?" Chen Mingan suddenly remembered that Zhu Huaizhen killed the Nanyan guards, so he turned around awkwardly and asked in a low voice.
"No." Zhu Huaizhen hugged his knees and answered bluntly.
She was very curious about what the people of Nanchu could do for Jiangcheng.
However, she knew that the more stubbornly the people of Nanchu resisted, the more they would suffer backlash.
So, she was a little conflicted.
"Your Highness, although the Xugu city gate has been broken, the Northern Zhou people cannot attack because the elderly, the weak, women, children and young people have all fought back." Tu Mi choked.
It is better to die with honor than to live in disgrace.
This truth must be trampled upon with blood.
"Okay, we're all going to die anyway, so we might as well die in battle to avoid humiliation in the future and die with regrets." Zhu Huaizhen sighed heavily and then coughed repeatedly.
"Zhenzhen, your cough hasn't fully healed yet?" Chen Mingan suddenly softened his voice.
Only then did Tu Mi realize that there was a new person, Chen Mingan, in Zhu Huaizhen's bedroom.
Tu Mi thought that Lou Li would arrive before Chen Mingan.
"No problem." Zhu Huaizhen said lightly.
"Your Highness, is there really no solution?" Tu Mi asked in a low voice, biting her lips.
"Zhenzhen, what is the unsolvable thing?" Chen Mingan had a vague guess, but still asked patiently.
"Even if there are only three households left in Chu, it will be Chu that will destroy Qin." Zhu Huaizhen said leisurely.
What Zhu Huaizhen meant was that there is indeed no solution at the moment.
She is from Southern Wu, not Southern Chu.
Besides, Nanchu helped to destroy Nanwu.
She has done her best to this extent.
"Zhenzhen, Nanchu's affairs are too complicated. It's better not to interfere." Chen Mingan said softly.
So Chen Mingan left, and Zhu Huaizhen and Tu Mi went to bed.
When I woke up, the smell of blood was so strong that it couldn't be dispelled.
Tu Mi went out to ask around and came back with red eyes again.
"Your Highness, all the people are soldiers. The old man charged forward recklessly and was trampled into the mud..." Tu Mi said, tears falling from her eyes.
"Where's the child?" Zhu Huaizhen put down his chopsticks and felt like he couldn't eat anymore.
In fact, she has been eating very light meals in recent days.
For example, for breakfast, white porridge is paired with greasy salted duck eggs.
"The child is just a tip-off. Adults are always on guard against children." Tu Mi felt somewhat relieved when she said this.
"Tu Mi, go spread the word that Bai Rusu, the daughter of the Bai family in Nanchu, wants to take in a group of Nanchu children to work in the shops under the name of Beijin. The number of places is limited, and it's on a first-come, first-served basis." Zhu Huaizhen rubbed his forehead.
"Your Highness, will something happen to the child?" Tu Mi asked foolishly.
Of course, just like this Jiangcheng, it will fall sooner or later.
Sadly, however, most of the people of Southern Chu believed in Emperor Chu Ming and were unwilling to send the children away. Tu Mi persuaded them and finally sent the fourteen children away.
After hearing this, Zhu Huaizhen pondered for a moment and gathered the wives and children of the actors.
"From today on, you must study hard to learn to sing opera. I want to listen to "Peach Blossom Fan." Zhu Huaizhen held his rosy cheeks and looked sentimental.
Tu Mi understood that her prince was trying his best to protect his wives and children.
Unfortunately, his wife and children looked at each other in confusion.
It’s okay, my wife and children will understand in the future.
