Looking at Xiaoman, the general was silent, but Xiaoman was very annoyed. This matter should be resolved as soon as possible! Looking at the general: "Let me ask you, are you sure you don't plan to surrender?"
"Then I will just let you go and let the 100,000 troops under you go to hell!"
Hearing Xiaoman's cruel words, the general was dumbfounded. How could he do this? But now he had to bow his head and look at Xiaoman.
"We surrender."
Xiaoman smiled: "It's good to surrender, wouldn't it be better to surrender earlier? If that's the case, then name those who are loyal to the Li family, and those people must die!"
"Also, go down and notify them to come up in batches so that we can control them! This way you can save your life. Of course, you don't have to come up either. It only takes three days."
"This place can be filled with water, and the exits are all blocked. You can just wait to drown down there!"
After saying this, he called for people and sent the general back again. The people below could only see the water level rising, and the leader began to become manic as he never came back.
"Did the general run away alone? Why hasn't he come back yet?"
No one could give an answer. Some people who were worried thought: "Let's go too. We might drown in here. The water is getting higher and higher. All the food is soaked."
"We have nothing to eat or drink, what should we do then?"
The atmosphere of panic slowly spread among most people. These people who have lived underground for many years were originally more nervous than others! Xiaoman adopted mental suppression.
"Don't think too much. The general won't abandon us. We don't know the situation up there yet. What if we get into danger? I think we should just wait. Who knows, the general might come back."
These were the people who trusted the general and the Li family very much. Seeing that the army was somewhat angry, they began to comfort them. However, they were simply unable to comfort them. As soon as they finished speaking, their words were pushed back.
"How long are we going to wait? The young master is not here, and the general is not here either. Are we just waiting to die?"
Just when the two sides were divided into two extremes and were about to fight because of the dispute, the general came back with a heavy face. He had seen what had just happened.
Perhaps their rebellion was not taken seriously by these people at all. They just needed to let them off a little to cause internal strife, and those who were not trusted would run away.
He sighed and looked at everyone: "Okay, this general is back and brought a message."
Everyone looked at him. The general's face looked heavy. It was definitely not good news. They couldn't help but become worried: "General, what's the news?"
The general sighed again: "We are surrounded by the imperial army, and the devil county lord is leading them! If we don't surrender, we can't get out. We can only wait."
"If she lets the water down and drowns you, if you force your way out, you'll probably be pierced by thousands of arrows when you exit again!"
As soon as the news came out, everyone below fell silent, and the group of people who had just clamored to leave spoke directly: "Then hurry up, let's go out and surrender."
"I don't want to wait here to die..."
If these people went to war, they might still be warriors who could fight to the death. But now it is not a war, but a one-sided waiting for death, and they cannot bear the psychological pressure.
She actually started crying. Looking at the expressions of the crowd, the guy who was loyal to the general just now also spoke up: "Not really! We can still wait for the young master to come and save us."
Hearing the word "young master", the general's face became even uglier. He subconsciously asked everyone around him to take a step back. The person who spoke looked at the general and said, "General, is the young master in trouble too?"
When he was talking, he had a bad feeling in his heart! The general nodded directly: "The young master has been caught!"
After hearing this, some people finally couldn't stand the pressure anymore and ran towards the exit: "I want to surrender. I don't want to die here."
"My wife is still waiting for me to come back!"
The result of this cannon was that more people ran towards the exit. When they reached the exit, the soldier shouted, "I want to surrender!"
The soldiers on the imperial side saw that a lot of people suddenly poured into the exit and surrounded them. When they heard that the people inside wanted to surrender, they decided to report to Xiaoman.
Xiaoman and Gu Xiangning soon came to the scene. Soldiers came over with ropes and said, "Tie up the hands of those who surrendered, and bring them all into the camp one by one to await their fate."
In fact, these people had been exposed to water and had some medicinal properties in their bodies, so they felt weak all over and were easily subdued. The 100,000-strong army was pushed into the camp.
After handing them over to someone for guarding, Xiao Man looked at these people and said, "You all want to surrender? I know that many of you are loyal to the Li family. It's best for you to stand up."
"Otherwise, if someone reports you, you'll die an ugly death."
Xiaoman randomly appointed someone to arrange this matter, and then went into the palace by herself. The matters here still had to be informed to the emperor, so Xiaoman soon entered the palace.
Looking at the emperor: "Your Majesty, where is Li Ziqing? Is he really so brave? How dare he come out to assassinate the queen at this time?"
Looking at Xiaoman's face which was full of expression of "how could there be such a stupid person in the world", I was speechless. Speaking of which, Li Ziqing was really a magical person.
"He's locked up in the Sky Prison! By the way, how's things going in Ice City? How long will it take for the Li family to arrive?"
Xiaoman shook her head: "I don't know. I'll send a message to Bai Jia to ask where she is. Is the queen okay? Well, the 100,000 troops have been captured."
"It's up to you to decide how to deal with it. As for the Li family's affairs, I won't ask about them. I'm going to be a 15-year-old in two months, and I need to prepare for my 15-year-old ceremony."
The emperor thought it was within his expectations: "Okay, you can go to your coming-of-age ceremony by yourself!"
Xiaoman had already left the palace. When she returned to the palace, she saw Wanxi: "Aunt, are you going out?"
Wan Xi nodded: "Yes, I'm going out to buy something, do you have something to do?"
Xiaoman shook her head: "It's okay, just saying hello."
Wan Xi said "oh" and left. Walking on the street, Wan Xi felt that Kyoto was really lively and full of people. She wanted to go out and buy some clothes.
After all, she came to Kyoto, and heard that it was hard to get a set of clothes in Kyoto's clothing store, so she went to try her luck. As soon as she walked into the door of the clothing store, she saw a young lady next to her, and she followed her in.
The young lady looked at Wan Xi with malice in her eyes, and snorted at her: "Fox spirit!"
These three words made Wan Xi stunned for a moment. With her hot temper, it was impossible for her to not fight back when being scolded. She could not help but snorted coldly: "Stop, who are you?"
"Why do you curse?"
But who knew that the girl would take advantage of the situation and snort coldly, and then began to mock and ridicule: "Oh, it seems that you also have self-awareness. You know that when I call me a vixen, I'm talking about you."
"You think so, too, right? Otherwise, how would you know I was scolding you when I didn't mention your name?"
Wan Xi almost exploded with anger. This girl was going too far: "I have no grudge against you, why are you making things difficult for me?"
When the girl heard this, she suddenly looked scared and said, "How dare I mess with you? You are the prime minister's aunt, who dares to bully you?"
"But people think you are the Prime Minister's aunt. Everyone is afraid of you. My brother Lin will protect me."
As he spoke, he walked quickly to Lin Zezhi who had just come in. Lin Zezhi came today to pick up clothes for Madam Lin, because it was the Queen's birthday in two days and she would enter the palace, so she ordered a set of clothes in the ready-made clothing shop.
I met Wan Xi as soon as I came in. Before I could feel happy, this cousin suddenly jumped out and looked at me pitifully, as if she was accusing Wan Xi of bullying me.
You know, Lin Zezhi is quite sure that Wan Xi is a kind-hearted girl, otherwise, he would not have rescued his mother! How could he possibly bully Tian Weiwei
Tian Weiwei is Lin Zezhi's in-laws. In the past, she saw that Madam Lin was weak in the Shangshu Mansion and had no intention of helping! But now she sees that Lin Zezhi is a favorite of the emperor.
He just planned to get closer to her, and even thought about making the relationship closer by asking Tian Weiwei to marry him several times. It was a pity that he didn't like someone like Tian Weiwei!
And what about Tian Weiwei! She had already considered Lin Zezhi as her future husband several times, so how could she let others get there first? Even the princess' aunt couldn't find out Lin Zezhi's schedule today.
That's why this scene happened now. Wan Xi also understood what Tian Weiwei meant by this time. She couldn't help but snorted coldly: "You said I bullied you?"
Everyone present knew what was going on, but no one spoke up to prove anything at this time. Instead, they saw Wan Xi walking towards Tian Weiwei with a smile on her face.
Tian Weiwei's expression changed, and she cursed her again in her heart, calling her a vixen, smiling so cheaply in front of Lin Zezhi! She looked at Lin Zezhi and said, "Cousin!"
The voice was gentle and pleasant. Lin Zezhi continued to frown, pretending not to see it, and walked forward. When Lin Zezhi took a step forward, Wan Xi raised her hand.
Pah… He slapped Tian Weiwei on the face and then laughed: "This is called bullying! Got it! Now go tell your cousin that I bullied you. Let's see if your cousin dares to touch me?"
Are you kidding? If Lin Zezhi was not stupid, he would know that this little girl cannot be touched at all. Moreover, she just helped the emperor. If he touches her now, he may not be able to explain to the emperor.
What's more, Lin Zezhi didn't want to touch her at all. He looked at Tian Weiwei and said, "Apologize to Miss Wanxi..."
