King Tao originally thought he was being attacked, so he reached out to pry the hand covering his mouth, but he breathed a sigh of relief as soon as he touched it.
He patted the hand angrily, and the owner of the hand tiptoed back toward the depths of the alley.
After finding a safe place to stand, King Tao gestured to the housekeeper with his teeth and claws: "Why are you here!"
The butler chuckled: He was obviously the first to come.
He had been hiding in the corner and watching for a long time. If King Tan hadn't sneaked over secretly, he wouldn't have taken the risk of coming out of the corner.
Looking at the inscrutable expression of the butler, King Tan said: "..." In other words, you came out to watch the fun and didn't want to take me with you.
At this time, I heard the old Duke of Huaiyin shouting loudly in the Huaiyin Marquis' Mansion: "That old boy from the Huaiyin Marquis' Mansion, have you been cowardly and cowardly for a long time? Why don't you quickly hand over your shameless granddaughter?" Die."
The housekeeper and King Tan trembled at the same time: It's about to begin.
The housekeeper looked around, picked up two large frames from the ground and fastened them on himself and King Yi. He handed King Yi a piece of wood and signaled King Yi to protect him. Then he took King Yi slowly toward the entrance of the alley. Pass over.
They have no ability, no power, and they do not have the power of other princes, but they can still do such a small thing as collecting corpses.
After all, he is a veteran on the battlefield. The old master is really good at calling formations. His voice is loud and full of energy, and everyone can hear every word clearly.
After the old man called out the formation, the soldiers outside the door laughed together. Some soldiers who were standing outside the backyard wall and did not hear the old man also laughed with everyone.
That neat voice really shocked people the most.
As early as when the soldiers surrounded the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion, some servants noticed it, so several members of the Lan family stood in the yard and listened to what was going on outside.
Jin Qing was chewing something, while Zeng San was waiting behind her with a basket filled with garbage.
Hearing the old man calling him "shameless granddaughter" outside, Jin Qing turned to Lan Ruyu and said, "Are you talking about you?" She was such a shameless person, so no one would dare to scold her like that.
Lan Ruyu shook her head quickly: It's not her.
Jin Qing turned to the other side and looked at Lan Ruyun, who was stunned and cold: "He is scolding you." This is an affirmative sentence.
Lan Ruyun: "...No!" The eldest sister must be pretending to be stupid now, but why does she think that the eldest sister is really stupid.
After asking two people in succession, Jin Qing looked down at Lan Ruhai, who was holding her thigh with a nervous look on her face: "..." How pitiful. She was scolded at such a young age and even had her gender mistakenly recognized. .
Lan Ruhai was stared at by Jin Qing inexplicably, and he stretched out his hands towards Jin Qing: "Sister!" He was really scared now.
Not only him, but everyone else was also worried. The Zhenguo government had made it clear this time that the person who came was evil, and they didn't know if they would be safe in the end.
Liu Xinmei wanted to go out and fight these people, but her hand was injured and she couldn't lift the knife at all, and there were too many people outside. Even if she went out, she would end up with a hundred arrows piercing her heart. .
Therefore, Lan Zhe could only stop her with all his strength, and comforted her that this was the capital, and when the emperor knew about this, he would definitely come forward to help them out.
No matter how smart Lan Ruyu is, there is nothing she can do against such a siege. Although she is standing here, her mind is already spinning a thousand times: She has to think of a way to send her brother away as soon as possible.
Lan Ruyun tightened her grip on the sword at her waist. This sword used to be a decoration. She didn't expect that it would be unsealed today. She would not let anyone hurt her family.
If you want to touch her Lan family, step over her body first.
Except for Zeng San, who has been following Jin Qing, the other servants of the Lan Mansion are hiding, for fear that people from the Zhenguo Mansion will harm innocent people.
Lan Tao turned to look at his children, then walked to Jin Qing and raised his head and said, "Grandpa, go out and talk to them now. No matter what happens, you are not allowed to come out. If so, things in Lan Mansion will be troublesome in the future." You took so much trouble!"
What the Duke of Zhen wanted was an explanation, and he decided to hand himself over. His status was here. If something happened to him first, the old Duke would naturally have no reason to embarrass the Lan family again.
He is old, so instead of just living day by day, it would be better to sacrifice his life to accumulate some blessings for his children and grandchildren.
He could tell that Jin Qing should be a capable person. As long as Jin Qing was around, he could at least protect the family's safety.
But there are too many people coming to besiege today, and it is difficult for two fists to defeat four hands, so let his old bones withstand this disaster for them!
After understanding what Lan Tao meant, everyone in the yard except Jin Qing knelt down: "Father (grandfather), no!"
Lan Tao waved his hand to everyone: "I have made up my mind. If any of you dare to stop me, you will no longer be a descendant of my Lan family."
Then Lan Tao raised his head and gave Jin Qing a knowing look: "If so, the Lan family will be left to you!"
After speaking, Lan Tao walked towards the door amidst the cries and begging of everyone.
Jin Qing put down Lan Ruhai, who was wiping tears from his arms, and looked at Lan Tao's back with his head tilted and squinting: "..." As for what, there are only a few hundred people outside, why don't you make it look like you are out looking for death? Same.
After the old Duke finished calling the formation, he found that the courtyard was still quiet. He immediately turned around and ordered: "The three bows, chariots and crossbows are in place."
The three-bow chariot crossbow was powerful and was originally used to attack the city. If it hit the gate of the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion at close range, it would probably smash down the door and the courtyard wall, and directly penetrate into the courtyard.
The old Duke had many soldiers, so he could have jumped in from the courtyard door and opened the door, but why did he do this.
Everything he did today was for outsiders to see. He wanted to see if anyone would dare to provoke his government after today.
Just when the old man was about to launch the giant crossbow on the car, he heard a creak and the door of Huaiyin Marquis Mansion was opened from the inside.
The old man looked over suspiciously, only to find that the person coming out of the door was Lan Tao, who had a wrinkled smile on his face.
Lan Tao nodded and bent down and looked at the old Duke: "Why is the Duke so angry? We have something to discuss."
A trace of evil flashed in the eyes of the old man, and he stamped the dragon-head crutch in his hand on the ground: "Let go." Today he was going to pierce Lan Tao, an old boy who didn't know how to educate his granddaughter, to pieces with a crossbow arrow.
Following a huge buzzing sound, Lan Tao's eyes widened and he stared blankly as the crossbow arrow as thick as a bowl was shot in his direction: He originally thought that the old Duke could at least say a few words to him. He took action, but he didn't expect the other party to take action.
Lan Tao just felt like the whole world was withdrawn from him. His thoughts were very high, but he didn't feel any pain on his body.
Then his feet seemed to leave the ground.
