The Queen Mother of the Red Chamber

This night was not as quiet and dead as Ziyan thought.The flames soaring into the sky and the noisy shouts of killing have slowly filled the entire city of Yangzhou.

"Bang bang bang bang." The rapid knock on the door awakened the two masters and servants who were in a light sleep.

Seeing Daiyu get out of bed, Ziyan hurriedly took the cloak and put it on Daiyu.The knock on the door was still thinking hurriedly, and there was a call.

He opened the door, and the handsome man standing outside the door was Xiao Ming, the commander of the accompanying guards. He was born in a poor family, but he was outstanding in martial arts, which was valued by the emperor. This time when Daiyu came to Yangzhou, Xiao Rong specially asked him to accompanying protection.

At this time, Xiao Ming was wearing armor, holding a sword hilt in his hand, and his face had a rare look of anxiety.

"Commander Xiao, what are you doing?"

Xiao Ming said anxiously: "Miss Ziyan, the disaster victims outside rioted and attacked the government office. Now they are coming to the hotel. There are only 50 guards in the hotel. I'm afraid it's hard to stop them. I'm here to invite the princess Move out of the way."

"What?!" Ziyan was shocked and ran back to the house.

Daiyu in the house had already heard the news, her eyes showed panic.Seeing Ziyan enter the room, she said with a serious face: "I already know."

People in despair act the most radically. Now the government and the nobles have become the objects of their hatred. If they break in, everyone in the museum will have no chance of survival. Even if they have no force, the virus they carry is also It can be transmitted to the guards.

"Princess, what should I do?"

Daiyu looked out at the dark night outside through the window, and there seemed to be a faintly visible fire in the distance. That direction should be the house of the magistrate of Yangzhou.

The next one is here!

Thinking of this, Daiyu made up her mind, "Ziyan, go and tell Commander Xiao that all the people in the museum are pretending to be city refugees and dispersed, so they don't need to stay with me anymore."

"How can this be done?" Ziyan hurriedly said, "How can there be no one protecting the Princess?"

"Now at this time, they stay here to wait for death. They scattered out. We still have a chance of life. Besides, there are fewer people, which is easy to deceive people. Go find two servants' rough coats. You can only take the money inside if it is soft. I have some money for daily use, and I don’t need anything else. Go!"

Seeing the urgency of the situation, Ziyan had no choice but to obey.

At this time, the victims held up torches and set fire to every seemingly wealthy mansion, watching those people annihilate the rich and famous, the soaring flames seemed to be the anger in their hearts at this time.

Some innocent people on the street fled everywhere, and some were also wealthy people who escaped from the Zhu households.When the mob saw them dressed in brocade, they swarmed up and beat them to death with sticks. For a while, they couldn't distinguish between good people and mobs.

Xiao Ming was wearing an ink-colored coarse cloth robe, and ran out from the back door of the hotel while protecting Daiyu and Ziyan who were wearing gray coarse cloth.

The streets are full of burnt ruins, and the houses that have just been lit are burning into the sky.There were many bloody people lying on the road, not knowing whether they were dead or alive.

A breath of death and blood permeated the city of Yangzhou.

Where did Daiyu go through such a battle, her delicate face turned pale instantly, she covered her mouth and gagged again and again.Ziyan also suppressed her fear, held Daiyu's arm and supported each other.

Even a general like Xiao Ming frowned deeply when he saw such a situation.

There are more and more disaster victims around, and they can't tell friend from foe, and they hit everyone they see.Daiyu and others were not spared either.Xiao Ming didn't dare to use a sword, so he could only push away a person who bumped into him and those weapons that were waving with his bare hands, and his body was also injured.

While blocking the danger in front, he shouted: "Miss Ziyan quickly take the young lady and run to the back."

Ziyan also stretched out her hand to protect Daiyu and hid behind, there is a small road facing the street behind, as long as she avoids here, she will be safe for the time being.

Suddenly, a person swung a long wooden stick at Daiyu and the two of them. Seeing this, Xiao Ming jumped up and kicked them to the ground.

"This man knows martial arts. He must be a soldier. Hurry up." Someone shouted, attracting crowds of victims.

The scene was chaotic for a while, and Daiyu and the three were struggling.

Two fists are hard to beat with four hands, even though Xiao Ming is very skilled in martial arts, he can't resist so many victims, not to mention protecting two weak women, he is naturally suffering from the enemy.

"Ah—" Daiyu was hit on the forehead and exhaled in pain.

Ziyan hastily hugged Daiyu in her arms to shield her from the victims' blows.

Seeing this, Daiyu endured the pain and pushed Ziyan away, "Don't protect me."

"Kill them, kill them." The shouts of killing filled Daiyu's ears one after another, and she felt dizzy just listening to it.

The victims slowly huddled together, and the tightly held hands of Daiyu and Ziyan were also squeezed loose. "Ziyan...Ziyan where are you?" Daiyu shouted in fear, but her voice was suppressed by waves of shouts.

Suddenly being pushed hard by someone, he fell to the ground, "Ah——"

After all, it was a little girl who had never done anything before, and she was so frightened that she cried out at such a scene, "Ziyan, Ziyan, queen mother...Brother Wang...uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."

There was a sharp pain in the palm of the hand, it was actually trampled hard, and the tender little hand was bloody and bloody from the trampling.

As the saying goes, ten fingers connect to the heart, how can I stand such pain, the pain spreads to my brain in waves, I just feel pain everywhere in my body, dizzy, I can’t hear the sound, I can’t see clearly...

Daiyu had a dream. In the dream, there was the queen mother, brother Wang, brother emperor, sister-in-law, nephew, and Mo Xue... Everyone was laughing and laughing together to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival, and brother Wang deliberately made things difficult for her. , then asked herself a difficult question, and said that if she could not answer it, she would not be allowed to celebrate the festival. She thought about many answers, but she couldn't answer. Brother Wang immediately changed his face and scolded himself viciously, and then everyone started scolding himself , Slowly they are getting farther and farther away from themselves.There were no red lanterns for the Mid-Autumn Festival, and no mooncakes full of melons and fruits on the table. It was dark all around, and I was the only one standing in place.

"Don't abandon Yu'er, Yu'er will definitely figure out the answer, don't abandon me... woo woo..."

"Girl, girl, wake up." The voice was clear and gentle.

Then there was a cool feeling on the painful part of the head, and I didn't know how to fiddle with it, and the pain eased a lot.

After an unknown amount of time, when Daiyu opened her eyes, she saw that she was in a small wooden house. Although the house was simple, it was exceptionally clean and tidy, and there was a smell of herbs.

Sitting up with her hands propped up, the severe pain from the injury made Daiyu suddenly realize that her hand was injured. Everything before that was not a dream. Did mobs really burn the city?

"You're awake." The voice was familiar, vaguely like the one I heard before when I was asleep.

Daiyu turned her head and looked at the source of the sound. She saw a tall figure standing against the light at the door of the wooden house, shaped like a orchid, but she couldn't see the color clearly. She only felt that the simplest crescent white robe was wearing He has added a bit of detached temperament.

After the man walked a few steps forward, Daiyu had a clear look at the man's appearance, his temples were cut like knives, his eyebrows were like sharp swords, his eyes were as moist as water, as deep as a pool, and his face was like a crown of jade.It really is like the fairy in the book, peerless and out of the world.

I saw him walking over lightly, with a smile on his face, like a gentle breeze.The surrounding scenery also became impressive because of this person, adding a kind of otherworldly dream.

"Girl, what's the matter with you?"

"I...I'm fine." Daiyu was suddenly startled by her rudeness just now, she withdrew her gaze and lowered her head, secretly annoyed that she had lost her manners.

"That's all right. What you suffered was originally a traumatic injury, so it's nothing to worry about. You'll naturally suffer from physical pain."

Daiyu raised her head when she heard the words, and saw the deep pool of water at a glance, and her heart slowly tightened. "I, I'm fine. I don't know the name of my benefactor Gao, so I can tell my family in the future."

The man shook his head lightly, sat on the chair beside the bed with the medicine powder, and said: "There is no need to repay, my surname is Qin, and my single name is Lang."

"Qin Lang..." Daiyu murmured, feeling lost again, she hastily changed her words: "So it's Mr. Qin."

Seeing Daiyu's annoyed look, Qin Lang smiled, and said with a smile: "I don't know the girl's name, but it's easy to call her in the future."

"I...my name is Lin, Ping An."

"Miss Lin."

Daiyu blushed and lowered her head.

Qin Lang mixed the medicine powder, put the white ribbon and the medicine on the small wooden table beside him, and said to Daiyu, "Your injury needs to be changed, the situation is forcing, please don't blame Miss Lin."

Daiyu raised her head and seeing Qin Lang's sincere expression, she hurriedly said: "I'm not a stingy person either, Mr. Qin saved my life, so there's no room for blame."

Qin Lang nodded with a gentle smile, and stretched out his hand to remove the ribbon on Daiyu's forehead, his movements were gentle and delicate, without any pain.And because they are so close, their breaths are in contact with each other, and their breaths melt together, Daiyu just feels uncomfortable all over, and the heat surges from the bottom of her heart, she feels that her neck and cheeks must be as if they have a fever.

The cool touch on the forehead was the same as the feeling in the coma before, Daiyu squeezed the hem of the skirt nervously, and finally couldn't help asking: "How did you save me?"

Obviously at that time, I was squeezed among the crowd and was almost trampled to death, how did I come to this apparently much quieter hut?

Qin Lang focused his eyes on the wound and slowly added the medicine powder. Hearing Daiyu's question, a smile overflowed from the corner of his lips, "Because I heard a little girl crying, crying very sadly. So I follow the I went away with the sound and brought you out. But I am not the only one who saved you, there are many other people, but you are not in good health now, so it is inconvenient to see them.”

"them?"

"They are victims of disasters around here."

Daiyu's face turned pale with shock when she heard the words. In her heart, the word "disaster victims" already represented blood and violence.

"Don't worry, they are not those bad people."

Daiyu lowered her head and said sullenly: "But the person who was so cruel before is also a disaster victim."

"Those people are not disaster victims."
