Someone on the side tentatively said, "Why open the city gate and let them leave?"

When Wen Ye heard this, he immediately said in a deep voice: "No!"

The person next to him frowned.

In fact, when they said these words, they seemed to be helping the people, but in fact they were asking themselves. After all, the situation was special this time. The rebels besieged the city, and the emperor was stubborn and insisted on sending reinforcements to Beiping. It was almost a matter of time before the city was destroyed in Hecheng without any foreign aid.

The rebels warned again that the city would be massacred on the day it was destroyed.

They are also afraid of death.

If Wen Ye is willing to open the city gate, can they also take the opportunity to escape? In this way, they can still save their lives?

Unexpectedly, Wen Ye refused without hesitation.

Everyone looked at each other, and the atmosphere was a little stagnant for a moment.

Wen Ye's face was gloomy. He only looked at them and said nothing. He looked outside the city tower. Under the faint morning light exposed on the zenith, he could only barely draw a contour in front of him.

But after fighting for so many years, he could still judge even with a faint outline.

In the dark night ahead, countless soldiers were hidden.

As soon as they open the city gate, these rebels will flock to you. At that time, these people will still have their lives?

Needless to say, those ordinary people will only become stepping stones for them to step into Hecheng City. Who cares about their life and death?

Thinking of this, Wen Ye's face became even heavier.

He turned around and said to the people around him: "Don't think that you can have a glimmer of life by abandoning the city and surrendering. King Ning is now rebelling against the court, and his own brothers are rebelling against him. Can a person even keep you alone? Don't dream!"

“…”

Everyone had nothing to say for a moment.

After saying this with a dark face, Wen Ye took a look down again.

The people's emotions were getting more and more anxious, and the sound of quarrels with the soldiers guarding the city became louder and louder, and some people even crowded forward desperately behind them.

As the crowd surged forward, like waves slashing against huge rocks.

At this moment, I can still defend myself.

But, how long can I protect myself?

Wen Ye's face darkened, and he called the deputy general beside him and whispered to him. After hearing this, the deputy general nodded, immediately got off the city tower, rode on his horse, and quickly headed towards the Jinlou Villa.

Seeing his figure disappearing in front of him, Wen Ye couldn't help but clench his fists, and then turned to look outside the city tower.

The sky is getting brighter.

At this time, a noise sounded from the side of the city gate below the city tower.

Wen Ye walked over quickly and held the wall and looked down. It was a young man in the crowd. Because he had been guarding for a night, he was a little angry at this time and said to the soldiers guarding the city: "You don't open the city gate yet, are you going to want us to die here?"

The soldiers guarding the city did not close their eyes all night and were not angry: "Stop talking nonsense, step aside!"

After saying that, he reached out and pushed him.

The young man staggered, stood up immediately, and said angrily: "You guys can't win the battle, they will only bully us ordinary people. We are not your mules in captivity, so why don't we leave the city?"

The soldier pulled out his knife with a whisper: "Looking for death?"

When everyone saw him pulling his sword, their originally cowardly mood turned into anger.

Someone in the crowd shouted: "Take a knife at us, then we can do it too!"

The deputy general rode his men and horses to Jinlou Villa Garden quickly.

In Liuhe Hall.

Originally, a huge map was spread out on the table where antiques were placed. Zhu Feng looked at the three places of Peiping, Hecheng, and Changqing City above, with a solemn look.

The deputy general sent by Wen Ye was kneeling in front of the table and reporting on the situation on the other side of the city tower.

"emperor,"

He lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "Master Wen asked the general to come back to report to the emperor. At present, the people are in high spirits and it is really difficult to control. Next, even if the rebels do not attack the city, they will riot in the city."

“…”

"There are not many people guarding the city, so I'm afraid there will be a big mess."

Zhu Feng took his eyes back from the map and slowly raised his head.

He said, "Wen Ye means, he can't keep it for too long?"

"he"

Before he finished speaking, there was a burst of rapid footsteps outside.

When he looked up, a servant rushed over and knelt down and said, "Master, there is a stir in the city gate."

"What?"

"The people were yelling to leave the city, but the soldiers guarding the city refused to open the city gate, so they started fighting."

“…”

"Now, many people have been hurt."

When the general heard this, his face turned pale. Unexpectedly, as soon as he left, such a thing happened to him.

Zhu Feng said, "Then, have you controlled it?"

The attendant said, "Mr. Wen sent someone back to report that he had already been controlled, but the soldiers and people guarding the city injured a lot of people, and everyone was in a bad mood. I'm afraid that if the stalemate continues, there will be a big mess."

Hearing this, the general's mood became even heavier.

"Your Majesty, please make a decision soon!"

“…”

Zhu Feng was silent for a moment and said, "You go down first."

The general looked at him, his eyes almost feeling helpless and desperate, but Zhu Feng remained silent: "Go down."

"……yes."

He had no choice but to get up and retreat dejectedly.

However, as soon as he left the door, he saw a slender figure standing at the door, holding a cup of tea in his hand. The general was stunned for a moment and hurriedly bowed his head and saluted: "Empress of the Imperial Concubine."

Nan Yan just stood at the door and had heard them.

At this time, he only nodded at him, then turned around and walked in.

Zhu Feng was still standing in front of the table, staring at the map on the table with his eyes burning, as if he wanted to say that the map had burned a hole, and his anger was rising in his heart.

At this moment, a very light voice came from my ears

"emperor."

As soon as he looked up, he saw Nanyan standing in front of her holding a cup of tea.

Zhu Feng's eyes flashed.

When she left her before, she was still saying that she was there, but the beautiful atmosphere could not continue in the situation in front of her.

Zhu Feng coughed lightly before speaking, his voice a little bit strangely dumb.

"Why are you here?"

For some reason, when he heard his hoarse voice, some scenes of last night appeared in Nanyan's mind.

She couldn't help but blush, but she lowered her head and went forward: "I'm here to bring tea to the emperor. Xiao Shunzi and the others said that the emperor did not sleep last night, did not drink water, and did not eat."

"I'm not too late."

"No matter how anxious you are, you have to eat and drink enough to find a solution."

Her soft voice is irresistible.

Zhu Feng sighed, took a sip of the teacup she took from her hand.

A smile immediately appeared on Nan Yan's face.
