The loud noise in the east part of the city caused cracks to appear on Commander He's stern face. With his pale face, he couldn't help but raise his hands to cover his chest. Well, it hurt.
"Be good! Boss! Weapons! Weapons made of fine steel!" The deputy spoke in dialect as he became anxious.
He looked at the billowing smoke in the distance in disbelief, stamped his feet, beat his chest and cried to his superiors: "That's the reserve of Qi Qi! Commander Zhang said that one third of it will go to the Internal Guard, and all of it will go to the Internal Guard." We can get thousands of weapons of all kinds! Bows and arrows, long crossbows, and all kinds of swords and guns! They are all excellent! Ouch, I can’t think about it! I can’t think about it!”
He himself didn't realize that every time he said something, his boss's face turned pale. By the end of the sentence, Commander He wished he could spit out a mouthful of blood.
But there were a few little expressionless things nearby muttering loudly.
"This... couldn't have been done by the family that agreed with Qian Qi!" Lu Sheng swallowed his saliva and looked at his friends in disbelief.
Sheng Yuan shook his head and stared at the smoke in the night: "No way?!"
"That was definitely not done by Qian Qi's traitor! Listen to this noise, I'm afraid there is gunpowder in it and it will explode!" Anyu scratched his ears and looked at Ning Erniang.
"Could it really be the girl with the thirteenth surname who did it?"
"If it's true, then this is extremely efficient!" Ning Erniang only knew that a normal girl would hate Qian Qi, but she was not sure how strong the girl's determination to resist was. But if you think about it carefully, the only thing that can really burn down the armory of the Thirteenth Family is the one inside.
"No matter what! Anyway, it's a good thing that the armory was blown up by him!" Lu Sheng laughed and put his hands on his waist, "You know, this is for the former Qi rebels who came in to attack the city!"
"So, just think that our strategy worked!" Anyu danced with joy and stuck out his tongue at the confused former Prince of Qiliang County, "You must be dumbfounded! Just a little bit!"
Sheng Yuan and Ning Erniang looked at each other, clapped their hands with laughter, cheered and linked arms, singing and dancing in a circle: "Yohoo! Victory in the first battle!"
Soon, Lu Sheng and Anyu also joined in.
There was so much excitement here, Commander He paid attention.
Seeing the sneer on the corner of his boss's mouth, the deputy immediately became excited. Regardless of his heartache, he quickly advised: "Boss, calm down! Calm down! Here, one has the queen's back, one has the prince's back, and one's biological father is the internal guard. He is a veteran in the military and is related to the prince’s housekeeper and concubine, so he is not to be trifled with! He is not to be trifled with!”
"Haha." Commander He looked over with his narrow eyes.
Immediately, the deputy smiled and shut up.
Sheng Xiangxun still felt something was wrong, so he took his son to stand in front of a few ignorant little things.
"Sister Yuan, you are going to Guo'er's teahouse across from the Imperial College, right? Daddy will take you there.
! "According to Mr. Sheng's experience, if the situation is not right, just run away quickly.
The worst he can do is take all those girls back to Duke Sheng's mansion.
"Yeah! Great!" Seeing that her father didn't object, Sheng Yuan immediately cheered and asked her friends to get their feet ready. There were limited horses here, so their best choice was to slide.
"Miss Sheng, are you leaving now?"
Sheng Yuan and others had just high-fived each other and were about to leave when they heard a voice from behind that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, without much warmth, and seemed to be holding on.
Looking back, oh, the person speaking was Commander He, an acquaintance of hers.
"Yeah! Let's continue to help!" Sheng Yuan nodded proudly, as if "No thanks, everyone has a responsibility to defend Kyoto."
"..." Commander He felt like he wanted to hit the target even more.
"Be a good boy! You're still helping! By the end of the day, none of the trophies of our Sixth Army in Kyoto will be left!"
The deputy's muttering made Commander He breathe more quickly.
"Miss Sheng, there is no need for you and the students to gather. The place you want to go will be guarded and protected by the internal guards. Therefore, you guys should go into the palace with me and explain to the Holy Master in person!"
He said and waved his hand, and his subordinates gathered around him.
"Commander He, please don't act recklessly!" Sheng Xiangxun was startled and once again dragged his son to block the little girl.
Sheng Yuan, on the other hand, after being confused, considered the surroundings and the tone of the other party's words, and after careful consideration, she couldn't help but poked her head out from behind her father's waist with a guilty conscience, and asked innocently with big eyes: "Commander He, could it be that a few of us have done it again?" Did you do bad things with good intentions?"
"Again?!" Commander He paused.
Hearing this word, he felt inexplicably relaxed.
"Haha." Sheng Yuan shrank her neck, feeling that her uncle might have more to say to this person.
Commander He, who was in a much better mood, looked at the happy little chubby girl and no longer felt depressed. He smiled and nodded to her: "Anyway, please Miss Sheng and others come back to the imperial city with us to recover!"
After saying this, he looked at Sheng Xiangxun, who was protecting the calf: "Mr. Sheng, it's time for us to return to the palace. Please forgive me."
"Just go! It's not like I haven't been to the palace before! I just came out of the palace in the middle of the night." Sheng Xiangxun was worried that the little girl would go alone, so she wanted to follow.
Commander He did not argue with him.
If you want to follow, just follow.
"Dad, I'm not going, right?! We don't know the situation in our family yet! Mom is waiting for you not to come back, so I can't help but be nervous!"
Sheng Xin was not afraid of entering the palace, the main reason was that he wanted to go back home first and get a chance to atone for his sins with his mother, so as to save his father from having to settle old scores with him later.
"..." Sheng Xiangxun could see through his son's thoughts at a glance. He had changed the boy's mind.
But when his son mentioned his wife... Sheng Xiangxun, who knew that his children were safe and sound, began to think about her.
Although the mansion has its own bodyguards, and the old man and eldest brother will definitely take care of him, it would be more reassuring for his son to go back and watch him.
"Congratulations, Commander?" Sheng Xiangxun caught up with the man who was already leading the team, "My eldest son doesn't need to enter the palace, right?"
"It's okay if Mr. Sheng doesn't follow." Commander He took the horse that his deputy had led from the side yard of Yongshu Tea House, jumped on the horse without looking back, and told him this.
Hearing this, Sheng Xiangxun quickly turned to look for his daughter, put her on the horse, and stared at Commander He closely, silently expressing his determination.
Humph, you want him not to follow? impossible!
"..." The speechless Commander He stopped looking at him. He turned around and ordered his deputy to arrange for the remaining three children to ride with others. Then he patted the horse and galloped towards the imperial city like a sharp arrow.
"No! Have you two forgotten me?" Sheng Xin was dumbfounded as she watched her father and her little sister fly away, and then watched the large army of the Internal Guard walk away quickly. shocked.
"Mr. Sheng, please come with us! We will pass by your residence on both sides. When the time comes, I will drop you off." The deputy did not follow him. He led a small team to escort the less important suspects from Xiangrong Class to the rear. .
Sheng Xin wanted to roll his eyes. He felt like he had to work for the Internal Guard again unintentionally.
