Chapter 289
Maybe, there is still love
What bent down to her was a beautiful face that was almost sharp. She was wearing a black-collared brown suit like the people around her, with only a thick blouse. At this time, she flew up in the wind, which also made her black hair tied behind her head fly in the wind, adding a bit of sharpness to her beauty.
She looked at Shang Ruyi, her deep and sharp eyes widened, and she couldn't seem to believe her eyes.
After a while, she said in a deep voice: "Shang Ruyi?"
Shang Ruyi, who had been looking up at her, was not until this time, and heard the familiar voice calling out her name, and finally believed her eyes.
Shang Ruyi whispered: "Thunder... Yu..."
She was leading a team of nearly a thousand people in front of her. The one who was moving in the wind and snow was not someone else, but the eldest daughter of the Lei family. A few months ago, she followed her father Lei Yi to Hebei to quell the rebellion, but eventually betrayed the court and surrendered to Liang Shide's Lei Yu!
Shang Ruyi felt that everything was cold all over her body, and the howling north wind blew across her face like a knife, and she couldn't even feel the pain.
The two looked at each other quietly for a long time.
The expression on Lei Yu's face changed and changed, but he didn't say anything else. Instead, he waved his hand. When the person behind him saw her gesture, he immediately ordered the people around him to stand by on the spot. She had turned over and got off the horse, walked to Shang Ruyi, frowned and said, "You, why are you here?"
Shang Ruyi also looked at her and said in a hoarse voice: "Why are you here?"
It turned out that it was Wanggangzhai and Xiao Yuansui's man!
They joined the line with Liang Shide's men. Since they wanted to attack Luoyang, they had to achieve the greatest victory with the smallest sacrifice. The best way was to send people into Dongdu in advance. When the emperor left and Liang Shide's army arrived, these people immediately greeted the city. It would be almost no effort to capture Dongdu.
“…!”
Lei Yu looked at him and nodded silently.
Although Lei Yu told her everything just now, when she heard the news from Mu Xian, she couldn't help feeling uncomfortable. What made her even more uneasy was that the Dongdu City fell so quickly, where is the Princess Crescent Moon and Queen Jiang?
"They asked Liang Shide's army to enter the Eastern Capital to do anything, but they could not touch the Yuwen family."
Shang Ruyi only felt difficulty breathing, and her heartbeat was heavy.
Lei Yu was silent for a while and said, "Maybe, there is still love."
He was obviously frightened along the way, and his face was pale until now and he couldn't say a word.
Shang Ruyi suddenly opened her eyes wide.
"oh……"
Sure enough, he is not a simple person.
Although the two sides met with some inexplicable hostility, because the leaders did not speak or take action when they met, the people below were still nervous, but they were all suppressed, and a tense atmosphere appeared in the wind and snow.
Before she could finish her words, they seemed to feel something, and they all turned to look ahead of the road, and the people following them became alert.
"Why aren't you in the Eastern Capital?"
Shang Ruyi was dead there and lost her reaction for a moment.
She looked around and saw more and more people coming, but there were still no familiar figures in the crowd. Instead, the expression on Mu Xian's face became more complicated and strange, as if she was hiding something, and seemed to be afraid that she would ask something.
Lei Yu looked at her silently for a while, then suddenly smiled sarcastically and said, "You don't have to underestimate yourself. No matter what the East looks like tonight, even if the Ziwei Palace is demolished, no one will touch your Yuwen family."
“…”
Shang Ruyi said: "The sword has no eyes."
“…”
"Um?"
However, she didn't say anything, and even turned her head lightly, indicating that the people behind her should not act rashly. When those people saw such a charming and charming woman, their murderous aura was calmed down.
Lei Yu nodded gently, as if he had remembered what happened in Yanmen County, then looked at Shang Ruyi's pale face and panicked eyes, and said lightly: "You are right to do this. If you really follow him south, you don't know what the situation will be like."
Lei Yu's eyes flashed slightly.
Because in the wind and snow, a horse ran over under the protection of everyone. The slender figure on the horse's back gradually became clear in everyone's eyes, getting closer and closer. It could be clearly seen that it was a girl wearing a red flare, with a look of a beautiful face, and a charming beauty.
Shang Ruyi's face was both painful and cold, but at this time she didn't care about these things, she just felt uneasiness in her heart, and even ominously surged up, almost suffocating her.
After a while, Lei Yu spoke first, and she said, "Liang Shide's troops are attacking--no, they must have taken down Dongdu. I was ordered to lead the troops here to stop Dongdu from sending help from the troops."
Shang Ruyi smiled bitterly.
"Wanggangzhai, Xiao Yuansui's people."
“…!?”
“…!”
Mu Xian's expression changed rapidly. He looked at the person following her again. He immediately understood what was coming. After a moment of silence, he could only nod and not say much.
“…”
Lei Yu, who was standing beside her, obviously had a moment of chaos.
Shang Ruyi's heart became heavier and heavier.
"Yes, these are things that can make people give up their interests, give up their survival, or even sacrifice their lives."
And there was also a man following Princess Crescent, but one of Mu Xian's subordinates was holding an eight or nine-year-old child in his arms, which was King Zhao Chu Chengfei.
Hearing this, Lei Yu frowned, but she quickly said: "The emperor left Dongdu and abandoned the entire north. The people around him had known this result for a long time. In terms of interests, they would not send people to rescue him anymore. After all--"
“…”
But the next moment, everyone calmed down.
She said happily: "You are finally here. I am still worried that something will happen in Dongdu and you will be surprised."
Shang Ruyi gasped.
However, at this time, no matter how tense the atmosphere is, it will not affect Shang Ruyi.
Shang Ruyi said: "It may not be enough to stay in Dongdu."
When she said this, she subconsciously stagnated.
Lei Yu said: "It seems that your relationship with Wanggang Village is extraordinary."
"What?!"
So he said softly: "I know, you have always been to us-"
In just a moment, the people following him rushed up one after another.
Shang Ruyi looked at her beautiful and resolute face. Although she had already frozen so hard that she had almost no expression in such a wind and snow, she could still tell a hint of sadness, but she didn't know that this sadness was for herself or something else.
When she heard this, Shang Ruyi's face immediately showed a surprise expression and hurriedly turned around and went forward to meet her. Sure enough, she saw a group of people galloping out of the wind and snow, reflecting the firelight around her. She recognized at a glance that the rider was Mu Xian!
Mu Xian didn't speak immediately, but subconsciously looked back.
Shang Ruyi raised her numb face and looked at her, and was silent for a moment before slowly saying, "He, he is ordered to attack Wanggang Village."
Immediately asked again: "Then you--"
A complex look appeared on Lei Yu's face, as if he was happy and as if he was a bit contradictory pull.
Lei Yu said: "It's not just us."
Lei Yu looked at her, with a strange light flashing in his eyes.
Shang Ruyi nodded and said softly: "You are right."
Lei Yu was much more alert than others. He immediately raised his hand and everyone behind him was alert. Some people had even drawn out their swords. The pale and cold light directly hurt people's eyes in such night.
But--
Her appearance was like a beautiful little flower that suddenly bloomed in the storm and snow, making people feel terrified.
"what else?"
Although her limbs were already numb, her mind was spinning very quickly at this time, and she almost immediately clarified that the only thing she could get in touch with Wanggang Village was Xiao Yuansui. At least when he entered Xingluo Cang alone, he was very polite to him and never hurt him from beginning to end.
It seemed like I was beaten hard.
Shang Ruyi's voice became hoarse: "Seeking for help?"
Lei Yu said: "I sent people into the city in advance, but not ours."
"male--"
“…”
She said, "There are internal men in the city."
“…”
Lei Yu nodded.
The words "The Princess" were almost blurted out, but Shang Ruyi's mind flashed and she immediately changed her mouth: "You are here."
Xiao Yuansui is this person and this name!
Shang Ruyi was stunned again and looked up at her - what does it mean?
Lei Yu also looked down at her, with a complex light flashing in his eyes, and said, "Before sending troops, I made a request to them. No matter what, the army cannot harass your house after entering the Dongdu City. Originally, this was to be passed on to the people lurking into the Dongdu City, but when our news came, their news came first."
The people from Wanggang Village suggested to Liang Shide that they should not disturb the Yuwen family, especially that they should not touch themselves?
Shang Ruyi said: "Your Majesty went south to Jiangdu Palace and wanted to take me away. I didn't want to go, so I ran out secretly."
And at this time, Shang Ruyi had already understood.
He couldn't say what happened next.
Lei Yu looked at her, his eyes became more and more serious. After hesitating for a long time, he said softly: "Shang Ruyi, you--"
"oh?"
The bitter cold wind swept a ball of snow as big as an egg, slapped her face with a bang.
Shang Ruyi was stunned and looked up at her again. She suddenly understood what was coming. She realized that she seemed too sharp in her words just now, and she and Lei Yu would not have fallen to this point.
"Who is that?"
Mu Xian and the others probably didn't expect there would be so many people here, and they were also shocked. But at this moment, they felt relieved when they saw Shang Ruyi and rushed over. When they ran to Shang Ruyi, they immediately turned over and dismounted: "Mrs. Young Madam - Miss Lei?"
But at this time, Jiang Kesheng said first: "It seems to be ours!"
“…”
Did he explain this?
Shang Ruyi still couldn't speak.
That is actually Princess Crescent Moon Chu Ruoyan!
She obviously didn't expect to see so many people here. She looked at the people around her tremblingly. When she saw Shang Ruyi, she immediately seemed to find a support: "Mrs. Young Madam!"
“…”
In the vast night and the wind and snow, it seemed that someone was racing towards them.
"Dongdu, who else can I ask for help..."
But Shang Ruyi continued to say softly: "After all, the troops in our hands are the things we rely on for survival in this troubled time."
At this time, she heard Lei Yu's voice sounding in her ears, as if coming from a very far place—
Only then did she understand why the people in the city fell in Hebei and the emperor decided to go south to give up the Eastern Capital and left Luoyang one after another. However, so many people appeared inexplicably entering the Eastern Capital, and they all looked strong men.
Lei Yu raised his eyebrows and showed a strange look on his face.
Mu Xian glanced at Lei Yu and said with a complicated expression: "There is indeed something happened in the Dongdu. The people from Wanggang Village cooperated with Liang Shide's army inside and outside. Now, the Dongdu City has fallen into the hands of Liang Shide, and the defenders have already..."
"Especially, you can't touch Mrs. Yuwen."
"Shang Ruyi, how could you be here?"
More importantly—
Shang Ruyi was shocked, and when she lowered her head and thought about it, she suddenly understood: "Yes, you sent someone into the city in advance-"
“…!”
Yuwen Ye and Mu Xian and the others rushed back from Xingluo Cang. In time, they should have just bumped into Liang Shide to attack Luoyang City. They picked up the princess and King Zhao and took them on the way together.
Shang Ruyi frowned: "Why are you so sure? Even if you and Lei - you are familiar with the city defense and control of Dongdu, the city of Dongdu is so strong that even if there are not many people left behind, it will not be taken down by Liang Shide in such a short time."
"Where are others?"
She looked up at Mu Xian, then looked around, but Yu Wen Ye was not found!
What about others?
It seemed as if she knew who she was looking for. Mu Xian's eyes flashed a little at this moment. Shang Ruyi immediately frowned and asked in a deep voice: "Where is Fengchen?"
She probably didn't expect that Shang Ruyi would always remember this sentence, and even said it at this time, but she didn't know whose heart hurt. But she nodded and said, "But, even though she said that, we can't generalize it."
The two of them were silent again.
She thought for a while and suddenly said, "But, do you think Liang Shide's troops have already taken Dongdu?"
"……Affection?"
When Lei Yu heard this, a cold light flashed in her eyes, and she said, "Do you want to say that if you stay in Dongdu, you will become a dead soul under the knife tonight?"
Shang Ruyi was happy again, and hurriedly raised her head to look at the wind and snow. Mu Xian led a large group of people. In addition to the team that followed him, there were also a large group of people behind them. They pressed towards them like a dark cloud in the wind and snow, which also caused Lei Yu's men to become more and more uneasy.
“…”
“…!”
"yes."
"Where is Fengchen? He is not with you?"
Fortunately, she had swear to Tusheer and the others that the Dongdu City was strong and the food was sufficient. Liang Shide's men were just a group of mobs and were not qualified to take over the Dongdu. Now-
Shang Ruyi smiled happily, and went forward and shouted: "Mu Xian!"
“…”
"After all, in this world, in addition to interests and survival, there is also loyalty, filial piety and righteousness, and there is also..."
They are here!
She asked, "Where are others?"
“…”
"Speak quickly!"
Mu Xian struggled for a long time, and finally whispered in a slight whispering sound: "Second Young Master, he is going to chase the Queen..."
Chapter completed!
