Chapter 461
Seeing the people in Liaodong whispering and spurning those people who have forgotten their ancestors in a low voice, Lu Xiangsheng was a little hard to open his mouth, hesitated for a while, and finally continued: "I have a very important thing to do, just wait and listen!" All right!"

Upon hearing this, all the people fell silent, a little curious about what important things Governor Denglai would announce?

"The troops and horses I lead are limited, not enough to defend Liaoyang. We will evacuate soon!" Lu Xiangsheng said here, seeing the faces of the people in Liaoyang below suddenly changed, showing fear, he did not stop at all, and continued He said loudly, "But don't worry, I have already made arrangements for you!"

Hearing this, the panicked Liaoyang people finally suppressed their panic, but they still looked at Governor Denglai very worriedly.For them, they finally had the hope of a good life, but in a blink of an eye, the good life will be gone, and the mood of ups and downs really makes their feelings fluctuate a little bit.

Lu Xiangsheng's face was very serious. If there was hope, he certainly didn't want to give up immediately after conquering Liaoyang.It's just that there's nothing you can do, and there's nothing you can do about it.He said seriously: "If you don't want to be enslaved by Jianlu, you can go to Dongjiang. As long as you escape to the island, Jianlu will do nothing to you. The emperor has already prepared to collect food from the Nanyang countries, thousands of miles away. Send food to Dongjiang. As the governor of Denglai, I can also give you a guarantee here. As long as I have a bite, you will have a bite!"

"If you don't want to leave and want to stay in Liaoyang, I won't force you. It's just that I can't say what they will do to you after Jianlu comes back!" Although Lu Xiangsheng said this, but based on his understanding, I am afraid that Jianlu will take revenge on the people who stayed in Liaoyang.

When he said this, he saw the Liaoyang people below, all looking at each other with frightened faces, and many of them even shook their heads directly.Obviously, they also understand the situation of staying in Liaoyang.

Lu Xiangsheng paused for a moment to give them time to think about it, and then said loudly: "I know that it is not so easy to escape to Dongjiang and find a way out. It is very likely that on the way to Dongjiang , will be caught up by Jianlu. But don’t worry, I will try my best to attract Jianlu and prevent them from chasing and killing you!”

Hearing this, the people below started discussing immediately: "Why, didn't we go with Lord Zhongcheng?"

"Without the protection of the army, how can we go on the road?"

"..."

Obviously, many people were worried when they knew they were going to go on the road alone.But there were also some people who thought more about it, and immediately responded in a low voice: "How many horses and horses do you think Mr. Cheng has? If we go together, Jianlu will definitely chase after us. We don't have horses, so can we escape?"

"Yes, if there are enough people, Lord Zhongcheng will not leave. You don't even think about it. Lord Zhongcheng said that even the high city wall of Liaoyang can't defend it. Do you think that when you are on the road? , being overtaken by Jianlu, will Master Zhongcheng and us still have a way out?"

"..."

In addition to these remarks, there are also people who judge others by themselves and have dark thoughts: "How can an official take risks and let ordinary people like us escape safely?"

"That's right, maybe we attracted Jianlu's attention, and then Master Zhongcheng sneaked back with his people!"

"..."

All kinds of remarks were sandwiched together, although everyone lowered their voices and discussed in a low voice, but there were so many people, the sound of "buzzing" in the square rang out.

Wei Mulan was standing next to Lu Xiangsheng, watching the people in Liaoyang whispering, or someone's voice was a little louder, or that person was hiding in the crowd on purpose, and the last kind of speech was a little louder, which was rejected by Wei Mulan. Mulan heard it.

As the liaison between Emperor Chongzhen and Lu Xiangsheng, Wei Mulan was naturally aware of the whole plan.At this time, when they heard that some people were suspicious of Lu Zhongcheng's words, they felt that Lu Zhongcheng was trying to use them to attract Jianlu's attention, so that he could safely withdraw to Dongjiang.

This kind of remarks made Wei Mulan, who has always been relatively good-tempered, flushed with anger. She aimed her eyes at the source of the voice, thinking of finding out the speaker and asking him if he still had a conscience.

However, Lu Xiangsheng noticed her abnormality, reached out and patted her shoulder, and then shook his head slightly to Wei Mulan who was looking at him.It's hard to tell these people clearly, anyway, they have a clear conscience, and in the days to come, they will naturally understand the truth!

Sometimes, ordinary people are like this, they are a little bit bully and afraid of hard work, if you treat him fiercely, he will obey you, if you treat him kindly, he will push his nose and face.There was an extreme example of this kind of thing in the history of the late Ming Dynasty, and people had to sigh when they saw that history.

In the original history, Li Dingguo led the army to go south. During the battle to conquer Xinhui, the portal of Guangzhou, the people of Xinhui believed that if they helped Li Dingguo, the Manchus would surely slaughter the city if they came back; Yes, because he is kind and will not do anything to them.As a result, there was a scene of "singing and weeping" helping the Manchus defend the city.Li Dingguo's elite soldiers and horses were all killed here in the end, and they were no longer able to recover Guangdong and assist Nanming.

Today's Lu Xiangsheng is not as soft-hearted as Li Dingguo. After all, he was born in the civil service class. In the original history, he killed an unknown number of thieves, and because of this, he has the nickname Lu Yanwang.At this time, although he stopped Wei Mulan, he didn't explain, but said loudly: "If you are willing to go to Dongjiang, you should pack your things after returning home and get ready. There will be a notice to leave in two days."

After speaking, he strode away.When Liu Xingzhi on the side saw it, he replaced Lu Xiangsheng and ordered loudly: "You stay at home and clean up. Whether to go or stay, you can make your own decision. Martial law continues in the city. Anyone who dares to walk around will be ruthless!"

Wei Mulan didn't care about this, and went straight to catch up with Lu Xiangsheng, and said angrily: "Lord Zhongcheng, those villains should be caught!"

When Lu Xiangsheng heard this, he turned his head and smiled slightly at Wei Mulan, "Didn't you say a villain? It doesn't affect the big things, so why bother with such people!"

Between the words, it was as if it was dust, just flicked it, don't care at all!

When Wei Mulan heard this, she thought about it, smiled, nodded, and was about to say something when she suddenly froze there.

When Lu Xiangsheng saw her movements, he knew that the emperor might have some message to convey, so he stood still and waited quietly for Wei Mulan to speak.
