614 She was crying at the last sight
Lin Bochang and others came spontaneously.
"That's fine, but you don't need to follow Vice General Lin. Generals Huang Shen, Wu Shen, Liu Shen, and five hundred Divine Thunder Army officers are enough."
"Master Hou, but..." Lin Bochang was excited.
"Vice General Lin, if you leave, who will command the thousands of soldiers of the Divine Thunder Army?"
Zhu Xiuyuan's words made Lin Bochang calm down.
"Also, Vice General Lin, I want to ask you a favor." Zhu Xiuyuan said again.
"Please give me the order, Lord Marquis, I will definitely be in a state of complete disgrace and will not give up even if I die!" Lin Bochang said loudly.
Lin Bochang was an upright person. Zhu Xiuyuan's act of sacrificing his own life had already deeply impressed Lin Bochang. He now admired Zhu Xiuyuan extremely.
"Come this way..."
Zhu Xiuyuan took Lin Bochang and walked to an uninhabited area. The others could not hear the conversation clearly.
"Vice General Lin, this trip has a great chance of success, but it may also fail." Zhu Xiuyuan looked a little worried, "If the Yan army attacks the city and the city is in chaos, I would like to ask Vice General Lin for the sake of the military examination.
Help the young and old in my house escape from the capital and find a paradise to live the rest of their lives!"
"General... obey your orders!"
Lin Bochang bowed deeply, and then said: "Master Marquis, please rest assured, once the situation in the city gets out of control, I will risk my life to complete the tasks assigned by the Marquis!"
After asking Lin Bochang to pay their respects, the two returned, "It's getting late, let's set off now!"
Zhu Xiuyuan turned around and handed over to Dong Cheng and the others: "Father-in-law, madam, Shuyu, you guys are waiting at home for me to come back!"
After finishing speaking, Zhu Xiuyuan walked towards the door of the mansion without looking back.
"Xian son-in-law, pay attention to safety!" Dong Cheng shouted.
"Be careful all the way!" Dong Shuyu also shouted.
"Uncle, we are waiting for you to come back..." Qiu Wen and the others waved.
There was only Dong Shuzhen. She neither waved nor spoke.
She pursed her lips tightly, tears streaming down her face, and she seemed to be crying but not crying. Her tearful eyes were blurry, and she stared at Zhu Xiuyuan as he walked out the door without blinking.
At this moment, she felt that the sky was falling, the earth was sinking, and the whole world was dark.
My heart felt empty, as if everything was meaningless...
Seeing Zhu Xiuyuan crossing the threshold of the Hou Mansion.
Seeing Zhu Xiuyuan mount a war horse.
Seeing Zhu Xiuyuan turn the horse's direction, he pinched the horse's belly with his feet.
I saw the war horse move its hooves and run forward in a trot.
Seeing that Zhu Xiuyuan's whole person had disappeared from sight, even the horse's tail was gone...
"Wow!"
Dong Shuzhen finally yelled, as if crying, as if shouting, and took steps, regardless of her, she ran toward the door of the house with a whoosh.
"Husband... Husband..."
She ran and screamed, crying.
"Miss!"
"Zhen'er!"
Xia Wu, Qiu Wen, Dong Cheng, Dong Shuyu and others shouted and chased after them.
But Dong Cheng, Dong Shuyu, and Qiu Wen all had no skills and ran relatively slowly. Only Xia Wu ran the fastest and was about to catch up with the emotional Dong Shuzhen.
Dong Shuzhen felt as if the sky was falling and the earth was falling. She was so excited that she naturally couldn't pay attention to her steps.
When she was running across the threshold of the Marquis Mansion, an accident happened. She tripped on the threshold and fell straight forward.
"Miss!"
Xia Wu was only one step away from her. When she saw Dong Shuzhen fall, she was startled. She quickly rushed up and took Dong Shuzhen's hand.
But because Dong Shuzhen ran so fast, the force with which she fell was extremely strong. Although Xia Wu held her hand, she was still unable to stop her from falling.
Bang!
In the end, Dong Shuzhen and Xia Wu fell to the ground together, but because Xia Wu was cushioned, the fall was not so severe.
"Husband... Husband..."
Dong Shuzhen just cried and howled, not caring that she fell. Because her heart was in a mess, she couldn't get up for a while, so she had to dig at the ground with both hands, trying to crawl over.
Xia Wu was pulling behind her, holding her waist, trying to pick her up.
But Dong Shuzhen's strength was so strong that Xia Wu couldn't hold her up for a while, causing a mess at the gate of the Hou Mansion.
Such a loud noise naturally alerted Zhu Xiuyuan.
He couldn't help but stop his horse and looked back, just in time to see Dong Shuzhen scratching the ground with her hands.
Zhu Xiuyuan naturally felt uncomfortable.
He knew very well that Dong Shuzhen did not want him to leave at this time and go to the Yan Army camp...
But, he had to go.
"Xia Wu, Qiu Wen, hold her!"
Zhu Xiuyuan was riding on the horse, with his upper body sideways and his eyes moist, giving instructions to Xia Wu and Qiu Wen who rushed out of the gate.
After a while, Qiu Wen, Dong Cheng, Dong Shuyu, Dong Mei, Chun Xue, etc. also came to pull Dong Shuzhen...
Seeing Dong Shuzhen being held back, Zhu Xiuyuan took one last look at her appearance...
I saw her lying on the stone steps in front of the house, her hair disheveled, her facial features distorted by crying, the tears on her face mixed with dust, and she turned into a little cat.
Zhu Xiuyuan was cruel, turned around resolutely, and urged his horse to continue running forward.
The moment he turned around, he clearly felt that Dong Shuzhen's crying had become louder, sad, helpless, hesitant, heartbreaking...
It's like something bad is happening in front of your eyes, but you can't stop it, feeling helpless and heartbreaking.
But Zhu Xiuyuan did not stop and continued to urge the horse forward.
The war horse seemed indifferent to Dong Shuzhen's cries. As soon as Zhu Xiuyuan urged it, it neighed happily and galloped away.
Soon, Dong Shuzhen’s crying disappeared.
Zhu Xiuyuan sat on the horseback, a little silent, wondering whether he could survive this ordeal?
When I return after success, it should be a wonderful moment to see my wife again...
However, this trip is full of dangers. He may be captured by Zhao Pu and taken to Yan State, or he may even "travel through again". The future is unknown and no one can say for sure.
"Have a good trip, Lord Marquis!"
"Master Hou must come back safely!"
"Master Hou, go slow, I'm in a hurry to make some pancakes..."
Suddenly, Zhu Xiuyuan heard bursts of noise.
He recovered from the silence, raised his eyes and looked around. It turned out that they had walked through Xufu Street, which was close to the gate of Shenleihou Mansion, turned north, and came to "Dakongfang" Street.
The right side of Dakongfang Street is actually the wall of Shenleihou Mansion, and they haven't gone far yet.
What he saw in front of him almost frightened Zhu Xiuyuan.
It turned out that countless people had already gathered on both sides of the streets of Dakongfang.
The "noise" that Zhu Xiuyuan considered came from them.
The people lined the streets and waved their hands very enthusiastically, and many of them brought tea and water, as well as various foods and cakes.
Zhu Xiuyuan glanced around and happened to see an old lady next to him, with a stooped back and a bamboo basket in his hand, with a pile of pancakes in it.
It seems that because it has just come out of the pan and is still steaming, the aroma of the pancakes is also wafting over.
However, the general next to Zhu Xiuyuan stopped the old lady and refused to let her come over.
The old lady seemed to have bad eyesight. If she rushed over directly, she might be trampled by the war horse. The general's behavior was understandable.
But when Zhu Xiuyuan smelled the aroma of the pancakes, he felt a little hungry, so he stopped the team of more than a thousand people, got off his horse, and took the bamboo basket with his own hands.
