Chapter 19 Chapter 18

Both Song Shuming and Qiyue are in very bad condition. Song Shuming was cut in the back. Although it was not deep, they must have been on the road day and night without much treatment. The wound was infected and burned. It's all blurred.

Qiyue was also as thin as a handful of bones left, and her eyes that used to be nimble are now more hopeless and desolate.

"Sister-in-law."

The whole person has been absent-minded, no matter how much the daughter-in-law next to him persuades the person who doesn't pay attention, when she sees Mrs. Tian rushing over with a distressed face, she collapses immediately.

"Sister-in-law, my grandson is gone, and Erlang was conscripted away. The grandson wanted to collect the body for Dalang, but was beaten to death by those people. The granddaughter-in-law was...by..."

"Don't talk, don't talk." Tian Sanglan hugged her tightly and wept together.

Why is it happening like that?

Why is it?
Qiyue's second daughter-in-law, Wenxiu, was also sitting beside the bed crying. Her condition was also not good. She was so thin that the collarbone of her cheeks protruded very obviously, and her eyeballs were sunken as if they were going to come out of the frame. It was quite ghostly. The film is the sense of sight.

Ming and Ming Song Shuming opened a large grocery store in Canaan City, and their Song family was regarded as a country gentry in Canaan City, with considerable assets.

Song Shuming often leads a team to go out to run goods [sell goods from the south to the north, sell goods from the north to the south, and earn the difference in the middle]. He is tactful, convenient and convenient with others, and he often helps people bring things to deliver.

It is precisely because he eats well and knows so many friends that he has the opportunity to escape from Canaan City.

"Auntie, it was so sudden that we didn't have time to react. We didn't know until the soldiers were approaching the city. At that time, it was too late to open the city and all the gates were sealed.

All the men from fifteen to forty in the city had to go up the city wall to fight, and those who disobeyed would be killed on the spot.

When the uncle was taken away, my mother hid me and Xiaofeng Xiaoyu in the cellar, and my father happened to take my husband to Qi Yuan's family home that day but was not in the mansion, and my nephew accompanied my niece and daughter-in-law back to my mother's house and still hasn't returned. "

But it was clearly said that it was conscription, but who knows when a general surnamed Liu came to Canaan City to use the lives of those people to force the imperial army outside the city to retreat.

Boss Song and many Canaanites were pushed down the city wall.

Boss Song's son was impulsive, and when he learned that his father had been murdered in this way, he was desperate to fight with others.

Like many young women and girls in the city, his wife was arrested and taken to General Liu's temporary army camp, so there was no need to think about what would happen to her in the end.

Song Lao Er, who accompanied his father to Qi Yuan's family, did not escape the fate of being arrested.

Qi Yuanwai got the news faster than Song Shuming. After knowing that General Liu's men were arresting people in the city, he hid the Qi family's men of suitable age and Song Laoer, avoiding the first so-called conscription.

The breath has not been relieved yet, but a few days later, the Qi family was reported because of their wealth. General Liu personally led a team to surround the Qi mansion. Song Lao Er did not escape this time, and was really forcibly conscripted I don't know if Bing is still alive.

"Outside all members, isn't it..." Tian Sanglan pointed to the next door.

Two strangers came with them, an old man and a boy of six or seven years old.

At this moment, Tian Sanglan thought that the grandpa and grandson were in the next door, but they were actually at the old man's house at this time.

"The old son-in-law works in the government office..."

Qi Hongtao, who was covered in dirt and his face could no longer see his original skin color, spoke slowly with a calm to numb face, but his arms around his little grandson, who was already sleeping soundly in his arms, couldn't be tighter, as if he was afraid Song grandson will disappear.

This is his only living relative.

The son-in-law Mr. Zhou mentioned by Yuanwai Qi and their family are no longer relatives. His daughter passed away due to dystocia in the second year after marriage.

Master Zhou got the news too late. It should be said that the officials in the entire Canaan City only knew that King Xuan had started war with the court after General Liu led his troops into the city.

The government office was controlled by General Liu's men, and he couldn't even get out, let alone send news.

It was not easy for General Liu to let him go, but when he sent someone to inform Qi Mansion that the Qi Mansion had already been in trouble, the grandparents of Qi Yuan and Song Mingshu's family were hiding in the city.

He searched for several days before finding someone, and after telling Qi Hongtao what he knew in a vague manner, he quietly opened the city gate in the middle of the night and let Qi Hongtao and the others go out of the city.

At that time, the city gate facing the imperial court was in charge of General Liu's men, and the city gate facing the fief was still in charge of the Yamen servants of Canaan City. He could only help so much.

"That General Liu is King Xuan's uncle, and the younger brother of the current imperial concubine. I heard that the imperial concubine is already in the Acropolis where King Xuan is."

The old man Qi asked with a sullen face: "Why do you flee? Even if King Xuan rebelled and sent troops to suppress the imperial court, I don't think the imperial court will kill all of its own people."

Qilin Kingdom has a history of more than 2000 years. It is not that there have been internal and external troubles since it was strong, but the court has never treated the people as human beings.

Qi Hongtao was still numb, he just raised his eyelids to glance at him and stared at the ground again.

"The imperial army can't do it, but General Liu knows it. General Liu is taking a step back and slaughtering. Why do you think the imperial army has fought outside the city of Canaan, and the people in our city don't know anything?"

No one needed to answer, and he didn't care about the ugly faces of the people around him. Qi Hongtao continued: "General Liu will seal off the city and town first when he arrives at a place, and kill all the surrounding villages first. If he can't hold on, he will retreat. , to slaughter the city first and then leave."

The Qilin Kingdom is very large, and Yingzhou is just a small corner in the territory of the Qilin Kingdom, but Yingzhou also has three cities, 36 counties, 93 towns, and a full 170 villages.

Canaan City is adjacent to Yuecheng, which belongs to Yinzhou, but there are still several towns between Canaan City and Yuecheng. Either General Liu went directly to Canaan City, or he has never been in the first few towns. Hold on.

But no matter what, why has there never been any news?

unless……

Old Master Qi and Old Man Qi looked at each other, and the two said in unison: "The entire Yingzhou has been blocked."

Only for this reason, there is no news from the court.

It's not that there is no, but that you can't get in.

Thinking of the miserable situation of Song Shuming and his wife, and looking at the despair and desolation of the former richest man in Canaan City, both the old man Qi and the old man are more inclined to believe them.

Besides, no matter whether it was Qi Yuanwai or Song Shuming, they didn't need to go to such great lengths to make themselves look so miserable to deceive them.

What's more, this kind of joke is not made casually. If it is fake, it is a serious crime to slander the prince and important officials of the court.

The old man Qi stood up abruptly, his eyes went black from getting up too fast, and he almost didn't fall down, but the old man Qi reacted quickly to give him a hand.

"Grandpa be careful."

The old man Qi grabbed the old man's arm tightly, and the self-righteous roar with red eyes was actually so dumb that he could only spit out a sound, "Quick, tell the whole village, run away."
