Where should I hide?
She looked up at the sky, and the green mountains in the distance were hidden in the night.
"Tell them to bring some personal clothes and tell them that we will go up to the mountains to stay for a few days. There is a temple outside the city that is very efficacious. There will be a Dharma conference tomorrow, so we should go and listen to it together."
For several days, there was no letter from Wei Cheng.
The front line was victorious, but the rear was trapped.
How would a general deal with such a situation?
Her heart grew colder by the second, and that was the worst possible outcome.
Abandon Youzhou in the north of the Great Wall, go all the way south, capture Chang'an, and occupy the rich and strategically located capital Chang'an in advance.
This is the best choice for a general.
The horse was running non-stop, traveling eight hundred miles a day. At this time, had he received the message?
A huge sense of confusion and helplessness came to my heart, as if I had been expecting him to marry me but got no response.
Feeling a little dizzy, she held Qing Fei's hand and gasped secretly.
She didn't like the feeling of worrying about gains and losses.
Mother Shen took Xu Yu down to tidy up her personal belongings.
The official family members from Youji and Hebei Provinces had already arrived one after another. They had already finished dinner. When everyone was preparing to wash up and go to bed, she called over inexplicably. Some official family members were here, and some were dissatisfied. It was too late and he refused to come. He sent a little maid to deliver the message. He excused himself from joining in the fun because it was inconvenient to take care of the whole family.
After hearing this, she didn't give much advice, nodded, and reminded her to go back and tell her mistress not to leave the inn these days, close the doors and windows tightly, and don't move around if you hear any noise.
She tried her best, but there was nothing else she could do.
Life or death, leave it to fate.
But there was still Yunxian, Xiyuan was in chaos, maids and servants were running around, and all the valuables that could be collected from the house were packed up in a hurry. She had to find someone to send a message to Yunxian. Lanxi heard her He ordered her to hold her back: "There aren't many people in your house, so let my people go."
She nodded.
Dozens of women and children were squeezed into more than a dozen carriages, together with Wei Cheng's two younger brothers who were concubines. At the foot of the mountain outside the city, dim lights were lit on both sides of the mountain road up the mountain, like two winding red silk threads climbing up to the end. It was dark, like a monster's belly.
The scalp of the group was numb, and some people complained along the way, saying that they had to be dragged away so late at night to suffer.
Lin Yunyi held Ahe and walked beside Yinxiao. On the other side, Lanxi supported her with a calm face.
"My brother will also come to support you, don't worry."
She nodded and sighed again: "I wonder if Yun Xian is here at this time."
Lan Xi said nothing.
The name of the mountain temple is Qingping Temple, which is a century-old temple. She still remembers that Wei Cheng bought the glazed bracelet from here.
Zhiguan opened the mountain gate at night, invited all the female relatives in, and entered the quiet room until the second watch before settling down.
It was cooler in the mountains than at the bottom, and the heat was about to begin. There was still a hint of coolness in the night wind in the mountains. Everything in the quiet room was simple, just a couch and a table. Zhiguan personally brought her here.
Hanging on the wall was a picture of the Twelve Vows from the scriptures in neat handwriting, with firm and spiritual writing style. She stopped and looked at it for a while.
"I wish the weather will be smooth,
Second, I wish for a good harvest.
Three wishes for a peaceful land,
The fourth wish is that the people will be safe in Wufu.
Five wishes for happiness, longevity and health,
Six wishes for disaster to disappear.
Seven wishes that water and fire will not invade,
Eight wishes to be wise and wise.
Nine wishes for the support of the gods,
The ten wishes are clear.
Eleven wishes for everlasting happiness,
Twelve, I wish you peace and no worries. "
"Is this Zhiguan's calligraphy?" She turned her head and asked Zhiguan, pointing to the scriptures on the wall.
"It was written by the previous donor." Zhiguan is a kind-hearted middle-aged man. "The donor who wrote it said that this scripture was written to pray for his sweetheart, and he also asked for a string of colored glass."
"The glass in the temple is very famous."
She couldn't help but sigh. "I think they are a married couple."
After Zhiguan left, she opened the window and stood there for a while until the night was too late and she fell into a deep sleep. The next day she got up and went to the dining hall to have a vegetarian meal. Some ladies went to the front hall to burn incense and pray for blessings, and asked her if she wanted to After going together, her stomach felt heavy, she shook her head and went back to sleep.
The next day, on the ninth day of the lunar month, I saw smoke rising from a distance.
Black smoke billowed straight into the sky, and the beacon tower was crowded with people. The Huns took action in advance.
She held on to the pine tree on the top of the mountain, her eyes dizzy from the black smoke.
coming soon.
The female family members in the view also noticed the smoke in the distance, and for a while, sharp screams came one after another.
"Where's Yun Xian? Did she come yesterday?"
In the confusion, she grabbed Xu Yu's hand.
Xu Yu shook her head with a pale face: "Everyone has his or her own destiny, so don't worry about it, Madam."
"She is probably still in Cuihua Building now. I have to ask her to come up quickly."
She waved away Xu Yu's hand, turned around and walked down the mountain, Qing Fei. Mother Shen. A'duo and Xu Yu both pulled her but did not dare to exert force until soldiers with knives appeared at the intersection.
They were sent by Wei Zheng.
Stopped her.
No one on the mountain can go down.
Her legs went weak, and she suddenly staggered forward two steps and threw herself at the blade.
Several screams came from behind, and Shen Yinxiao quickly grabbed the blade with quick eyes and hands.
Tick--
Tick--
There was bright red, warm liquid sliding down the wrist, dripping on the ground, and blooming into bright and dazzling flowers.
After a moment, severe pain came.
She whimpered and moaned.
Qing Fei, Shen's mother, and Xu Yu all hurriedly came over to help her. A Duo, with a pale face, cleared a clean stone and asked her to sit down with a pale face.
The guard was also shocked.
My lower abdomen shrank suddenly, as if something was sinking, and it hurt.
She touched her belly and raised her hand to take a look. Her hand was covered with blood, and her back instantly felt cold.
But he immediately remembered that it was an injury on his hand, his stomach was not broken, and the child was fine.
She was inexplicably relieved.
"stomachache......"
She took a breath and gritted her teeth to squeeze out a few words.
In an instant, cold sweat broke out on his forehead. Qing Fei was so frightened that his legs weakened, "I'm going to find the doctor... I'm going to find Zhiguan."
Aduo followed her.
At this time, not caring about avoiding suspicion, Zhiguan hurried over, first checked her pulse, and then picked her up, followed by a group of ladies and servants who had heard the news, and crowded together at the door of the quiet room.
Lying on the bed in the quiet room, I turned my head and looked out the window, and I could vaguely see the thick black smoke.
It seems that the roar of the Huns fighting has been heard in my ears.
She whimpered, her clothes soaked with cold sweat, her throat rolled, and she grabbed Shen's mother's hand like a drowning person grabbing the last straw to save her life.
Hoarse roar.
"mother--"
"it hurts--"
"I am afraid--"
The world was spinning before her eyes, and everyone's faces flashed by. Xu Yu drove everyone else out, leaving Shen's mother, Qing Fei, and Zhi Guan in the room.
