"I heard that the imperial dining room in the palace provides delicacies all over the world. I wonder what we hardworking people will get?" Sun Yan said with anticipation!
When all the eunuchs and maids opened the barrels, everyone stepped forward to take a look and were dumbfounded. One barrel contained white rice porridge, another barrel contained golden steamed buns, and a white basin contained pickles.
Tang Tianli couldn't help but frown, and even Li Hanyan frowned. This was so disrespectful. The palace actually used these foods to comfort the soldiers who were fighting desperately? It's almost insulting!
Tang Tianli's facial features were distorted when he saw it, and he grabbed the eunuch's collar, "What the hell do you mean? We have tried our best to protect you. Not only are we serving you with big fish and meat, but at least you can order food? Just bring these things? You Do you think we are beggars?"
Seeing that Tang Tianli was so tall, the eunuch didn't dare to make any mistakes, and hurriedly said, "Strong man, please don't embarrass me. You still have something to eat. We who are too tight and have no rank, and some ordinary maids don't even have food." We don’t have anything to eat, so we have to drink water from the well!”
"What?" Tang Tianli asked in surprise.
"There is no need to store food in the palace. New food and vegetables are brought in every day. But now the palace has been surrounded by enemy troops. No new food is coming in. The remaining food, meat and vegetables have to be given. Your Majesty! These are the foods that the eunuchs usually keep some food for later use, but now they are all taken out!" The eunuch said with a look of helplessness!
Zi Yuan, Lizhi and others did not expect this possibility. They all turned to look at Li Hanyan. Li Hanyan sighed, "Tang Tianli, give out all the food. We have all been in the frontier. What haven't you eaten? Don't be hungry. I don’t have the strength to fight!”
"Yes!" Tang Tianli immediately called Sun Yan and gave all the food to Qilin Guard!
Li Hanyan walked into the Xuanwu Gate and saw that Li Hanrui and others were eating the same thing. Li Hanrui saw Li Hanyan coming and knew what the problem was. They came to the inner hall and saw Li Yukun and asked, "Father, Commander-in-Chief , there is a shortage of food in the palace now, what should we do?"
Li Yukun sighed, "This is indeed something I didn't expect. Now, except for the royal personnel and the more than a thousand combat soldiers, the rest of the eunuchs and maids have no food. But even so, the food is less than three days." Yes! I didn’t even calculate it to this point!”
"What should we do? The capital is surrounded by enemy troops. If we go out, we may not be able to come back!" Li Hanyan said.
"No, you must not go out. Once people outside know that we have no food support, they will probably attack the palace soon, and then we will really be unable to contain it!" Li Hanrui said.
Li Yukun also nodded, "The only reason why they dare not attack the palace now is that they don't know how many Qilin guards we have hidden in the palace. Once they know that we only have four hundred Qilin guards, they will attack madly. I really can’t hold on any longer!”
Li Hanrui shook his head, "The most critical issue now is not outsiders, but the people inside the palace!"
"Second brother, what do you mean?" Li Hanyan asked.
"There are thousands of eunuchs and maids. It's easy to let them starve for a day. If it lasts more than two days, I'm afraid...?"
"You mean they might rebel?"
Li Hanrui sighed, "After all, no one likes the feeling of hunger. Once someone goes out and tells the enemy outside about our situation inside, our danger will only increase!"
After hearing this, Li Yukun nodded, "This is a problem. I will report it to the eldest princess immediately!"
Outside the palace, everyone in Tangyanju was having dinner when they heard a loud noise. The door of Tangyanju was knocked open, and hundreds of enemy troops rushed in like a tide!
The four Qilin Guards took a look, pulled up the Sky Wing Bow, and instantly released four flying raindrops. After exploding, they knocked over more than 20 enemy soldiers in an instant! Then he threw the Tianyi Bow aside, pulled out the Ziwu Yuanyang Yue and rushed forward!
As if they were desperate for their lives, the enemy troops rushed directly into the front yard and started fighting with the Qilin Guards. As soon as the other servants of Tang Yanju saw the enemy, they picked up their weapons and fought with the enemy troops!
Du Xinyu's heart trembled and she hurriedly stood up, "What's going on?"
"I'll go take a look!" Xiao Xing ran out in a hurry!
When Du Xinyu saw Liu Xiawan in her arms, she immediately pulled Liu Xiawan to the back hall, opened the closet, and threw Liu Xiawan inside, "Remember, no matter what happens, don't make a sound!"
"Auntie, I'm afraid!" Liu Xiawan cried and shouted.
"Shh... don't make a sound, don't cry. I'm going to find your mother and I'll pick you up later!" After Du Xinyu finished speaking, he closed the closet door!
When Du Xinyu came to the front yard, he saw that most of the servants in the family had been killed, four Qilin guards were also lying on the ground, and Xiao Xing was caught by the other party!
A man in red clothes came to Du Xinyu and took a closer look. "Zhao Xuanyi is really lucky. Each of his wives is prettier than the last. I thought Tang Rou was pretty enough, but I didn't expect you, the third one." Girls are pretty good too!”
"What do you want to do?" Du Xinyu asked with fear in his eyes.
"Don't worry, I won't hurt you. The premise is that you are obedient and come with us. If you don't agree, I can knock you out and take you away. Which one do you choose?" the man said with a maniacal smile on his face.
Du Xinyu looked at the situation in the yard and sighed, "Don't hurt them, I'll go with you!"
"Happy! As expected of Zhao Xuanyi's wife, she is very particular, hey, that's all, let them go! They are all ordinary people, why bother!" the man shouted loudly!
"Madam?" Xiaoxing shouted loudly.
"It's okay, don't be afraid!" Du Xinyu understood that now he was the only one in the family who could make the decision. Fortunately, they were just here to catch him. If they took anything they saw, the family would suffer even greater losses! Even if he resists, with the current situation, he can't defeat him!
"Boss, this little girl is pretty good. Can I take her away?" A man asked Xiao Xing while he was holding her.
"Let go! Let go of what the young master said. You are not allowed to bully the people or insult women. Do you want to die? Let's all go. It's enough to catch Zhao Xuanyi's third wife!"
"But more than fifty of us died!"
"Who's to blame for not being good at learning? Let's go!" After the man finished speaking, he took Du Xinyu away.
The man let go of Xiao Xing's hand with a look of reluctance, and Xiao Xing slumped on the ground helplessly. "Third Madam...?" Then she started crying. More than ten servants in the family died, and finally the four unicorns were blocked. Wei was also dead. Although there were far more enemies lying down than them, they still took Du Xinyu away in the end. Xiaoxing didn't know what else to do except cry!
Inside the palace, Zhu Yuejun was very anxious when he heard Li Yukun's words. He immediately turned to look at Nanzhu, "Nanzhu, immediately gather all the maids and eunuchs in Puxian Hall, seal all the doors, and no one is allowed to come out, disobeying the order." Those who will be killed immediately will not be pardoned!"
"Yes!" Nanzhu gritted his teeth. Although it was very cruel to do so, things have reached the point where they are now, and there is no other way!
According to Zhu Yuejun's order, all the maids and eunuchs were placed in the Puxian Hall, all doors and windows were sealed, and water and a small amount of food were delivered regularly every day!
Although this method is to drink poison to quench thirst, there is no other better way. Now everyone in the entire palace is just at the end of their efforts, with only one word left to use!
But no one knows that Du Xinyu has been kidnapped by the man in black, and the hall has also been damaged to a certain extent. After all, everyone is like a clay Buddha crossing the river now, and they cannot save themselves!
In the early morning of the next day, Tang Tianli and Sun Yan changed shifts and looked outside, but the other party didn't move! They didn't attack again. "What do these people mean? They had a fight yesterday and then stopped moving? It's so strange!" Sun Yan said.
"Maybe you were frightened by the military power of our Qilin Guards? That's why you didn't dare to attack!" Tang Tianli said.
"No way? You have so much courage to attack the capital? Something is wrong!" Sun Yan said!
At this time, Lychee came over and looked outside. "They must have known that we were short of food, right? So they deliberately surrounded us. In the past few days, we will be too hungry to resist, and then they will attack!"
"What the hell? These people are really damaging!" Tang Tianli said.
"Lizhi makes sense. Our combat power is at its peak right now. Even if they can capture the palace, they will pay a huge price. As long as we are starved for a few days, they will be able to attack again without any effort. !" Zi Yuan said softly.
"It's broken!" Tang Tianli turned to look at Sun Yan, "What the hell are we going to do? We are not afraid of war. There are still more than 300 grenades, and there are still 500 raining in the sky. If the other side plans to starve us until we have no strength. If we attack again, even if we have these weapons, we may not be able to defeat him!"
"How about we just rush out and beat them to death with the weapons in our hands?" Sun Yan asked.
"No!" Jinglan shouted, "No one is allowed to go out! Even if we starve, it will only last a few days. During these few days, the young master will definitely return to Beijing for reinforcements. As long as the young master comes back, We are not afraid anymore, all the Qilin Guards will defend, and no one is allowed to take the initiative to fight with the other party!"
"Yes!" All the Qilin Guards shouted loudly!
At noon, a soldier quickly ran into the yard and said, "Sir, something serious has happened!"
"Speak!" the man in black asked loudly.
"More than a thousand Qilin Guards have been detected thirty kilometers away and are attacking the capital. The leader is Zhao Xuanyi!"
"What? Zhao Xuanyi?" Several leaders in the room stood up one after another, their faces full of fear.
"Didn't Zhao Xuanyi go to the Far East? Why did he come back so soon?"
"I don't know where he got the news, but he came back in one day. Master, what should we do now?"
After hearing this, the man in black frowned slightly. He never expected that Zhao Xuanyi would come back so soon. He originally thought that it would last at least five days. In this way, even if Zhao Xuanyi came back, he would be sure to capture the palace within these five days. , when the time comes, it will be too late to coerce the emperor and order the princes!
Seeing that all the leaders in the room were panicking, the man in black shook his head and said, "Stop arguing, what's the point of arguing? Isn't it just Zhao Xuanyi? Look at how useless you all are." !" The man in black shouted loudly.
Everyone immediately stopped arguing. The man in black looked at everyone in the room with contempt. "It's really embarrassing. What are you afraid of? What we are doing now is just losing our heads. What are we afraid of?"
Liang Yun came over and said, "Master, could it be that you already have a solution?"
"Humph! So what if he comes? I have two of his wives, and one is pregnant! How dare he act rashly?" The man in black turned to look at the servant next to him, "Go and get it. A piece of Du Xinyu's personal belongings. After confirming that Zhao Xuanyi has returned to Qilin Camp, go and hand it over to him in person. Just tell him what I said and ask him to be honest! Otherwise, he will know the result!"
"yes!"
After the man in black finished speaking, he clapped his hands and said, "What are you afraid of? Isn't this solved? The most important thing now is to trap the capital, do you hear me?"
"I heard it!" everyone shouted.
"Also! Guard the city wall. Zhao Xuanyi never uses ordinary methods and often uses unexpected tricks. We must be careful when raising houses!" Liang Yun said.
"Yes, Mr. Liang is right. He immediately ordered that the number of guards at Guanghua Gate be tripled!" said the man in black.
Liang Yun walked up to the man in black with a smile, "Actually, we have an easier way. We just need to capture a few people, tie them up and put them on the city wall...?"
"Shut up!" The man in black turned his head and glared at Liang Yun. "I have said it more than once, don't hurt the people! Don't say this again in the future! We want to change the world, not bring trouble to the world. A tyrant can never conquer the world." Take the long view!" After the man in black finished speaking, he patted Liang Yun on the shoulder, "Remember?"
"Yes, Master taught me a lesson!" Liang Yun nodded and said.
