Zhang awoke, clutching Yan Wushuang's hand tightly. Her husband and second son are gone, and now she has only one son left. Younger son, there must be something wrong again.
Yan Wushuang said with relief: "Mother, the news must be false. Mother, don't believe it." The reason why he didn't break down was because he firmly believed that the news was false.
Zhang shook his head and said, "When we returned to Shengjing, your father was worried and tossed all day and couldn't sleep. At that time, I felt wrong. Wushuang, Tongcheng must be really broken." Her husband and second son were killed in battle, and she hated it. Follow it now. But no, if her youngest son dies, she will become a helpless orphan. And because of the little son's paranoid temperament, he didn't know what would happen without her by his side.
Therefore, it is better to be a mother. Zhang, who usually looks soft and weak, is also very strong at the critical moment. Of course, those who can marry the Yan family will not be really weak.
"Mother, I don't believe it. Dad is so powerful, Donghu can't be his opponent."
Zhang's eyes fell in tears: "Stupid boy, your father has fought Donghu people with real swords and guns. But this battle is such a simple thing." What's more, the Song family has always been eyeing. This time Tongcheng was breached, and the Song family could not be sure that they would fall into trouble, and the Yan family was a felony who insisted on holding on to disadvantages.
Yan Wushuang still didn't understand the meaning of Zhang's words at this time. It was only a few years later that he understood the hardship and grief of his mother when she said this. In fact, his father and second brother did not die in the hands of the Donghu people, but died in the hands of beasts that were inferior to the pigs and dogs of the Zhou family and the Song family.
No matter what Zhang said, Yan Wushuang didn't believe that his father and second brother were really dead in the hands of Donghu people.
Zhang's heart was cut like a knife, and he hugged Yan Wushuang and said, "Wushuang, you will be left alone. No matter what happens, you must be well, otherwise the Yan family will be cut off." Tongcheng is broken, and what will happen to her in the future. have no idea. However, she will protect her son if she tries her best.
Yan Wushuang nodded and said, "Mother, don't worry, the child will be well and always be well."
Zhang nodded, struggling to get up.
Yan Wushuang held him down and said, "Mother, just tell me if you have anything to do."
"Wushuang, your father and second brother are gone, we should have funerals for them."
Zhang Shi put on Xiaoyi, but Yan Wushuang didn't wear it. Yan Wushuang felt that if he wanted to put on this clothes, he would agree that his father and brother were gone, and he felt that these were lies woven by the Donghu people.
Zhang knows that Yan Wushuang's temperament is a bit paranoid, and no one can change what he believes. Unless he really saw the bodies of his husband and second son, he would not believe that they were gone.
Thinking of her husband and second son, Zhang's tears came again. However, she forced herself to withdraw her tears: "Wushuang, don't you want your father and second brother to enter the soil for peace?"
Yan Wushuang has been tolerating, but this time I really can't bear it: "Mother, even if the rumors outside are true, Dad and the second brother died in battle. Then we will always find their corpses. There is no corpse in the capital. What kind of funeral? Where can I go to the land for peace?"
Hearing this, Zhang cried holding Yan Wushuang, tears fell like broken beads: "Silly boy, you silly boy..."
They have a bloody feud with the Donghu people. How could the Donghu people leave the bodies of their husbands and second sons to them
The news of the Donghu people's breach of Tongcheng has not spread, but the big families have their own news channels. Knowing that Tongcheng was broken, they quickly packed up the gold and silver and ran softly. The destination is naturally the capital.
As soon as these big households ran away, the news could no longer be kept. Shengjing suddenly became a mess.
The butler told Zhang about this and said, "Madam, the Donghu people may call in in a few days. Madam, you should leave here with the young master and go to the capital!"
Zhang shook his head and said, "I won't leave Shengjing." She would rather die here than leave.
The housekeeper said with red eyes, "Madam, if you don't leave the young master, you won't leave! Madam, the marshal is left with a child like the young master, and you can't go on any business trips." There are also people from the Yan family in the capital, but that's the same. Marshal Yan is separated from the room.
Normally, the leader who guards the border city will send his wife and children back to the capital. On the one hand, it is safe, on the other hand, it also means to be a hostage. After giving birth to her next child, Mrs. Zhang also moved to Beijing to live for a while. During that time, she often went to the palace to accompany the queen.
The brain circuit of Emperor Guangzong was amazed by ordinary people. After listening to Song's pillow breeze, he asked Mrs. Zhang to return to Shengjing with his eldest son. After that, Mrs. Zhang never went to the capital again.
Madam Zhang shook her head and said, "I won't go to the capital, and Wushuang won't go to the capital either."
The butler is still trying to persuade.
At this moment, the maid outside said, "Madam, General Zhang, please." This General Zhang is Marshal Yan's brother. Today, he is the deputy general of the Shengjing Garrison.
Let him be Sheng Jing's lieutenant, it was Marshal Yan who guarded against someone putting cold arrows in his back.
"Quickly invite General Zhang in."
General Zhang was burly and tall, and his face was wounded again. The scar continued from under the temple to next to the nose. The faint-hearted will be frightened when they see him.
When he entered the house and saw Zhang, who was wearing a white coat, General Zhang gave a salute: "Sister-in-law, please be sorry."
Zhang wiped a tear and said, "En Ting, do you know all about your elder brother?"
General Zhang said painfully: "Sister-in-law, I'm here for this reason. Sister-in-law, Tongcheng is broken, and Shengjing is also in danger." Tong Chunlin, the chief general in Shengjing, asked people to open the city gate and let the people leave. Therefore, the city of Shengjing is now a mess.
The Zhang family knew Zhang Enting's intentions and said, "Enting, you are also here to persuade me and Wushuang to leave Shengjing and go to the capital."
Zhang Enting shook his head and said, "No, it's the opposite. Sister-in-law, you and Wushuang can't go anywhere to the capital."
"Why?" She didn't think about going to the capital, but listening to Zhang Enting's words, it seemed that going to the capital was dangerous.
Mrs. Zhang knew that the butler was a loyal loyal to the Yan family, so she didn’t avoid him, she said directly: “Tongcheng has 200,000 soldiers and horses and occupies favorable terrain. With the eldest brother in town, the Donghu people will not be able to break through Tongcheng. ."
Zhang was not stupid, and asked: "En Ting, do you mean that the Yan family army had a ghost?"
Zhang Enting clenched his fists and said, "I'm afraid it's not just something as simple as an inner ghost."
Zhang thought about the worried expression of her husband when he returned to Beijing, and blurted out: "It must be the Song family, and the beasts of the Song family must have colluded with the Donghu people, and then put the Donghu people into Tongcheng. As long as he had an accident, the queen would follow the prince. They have lost their trust and no way to survive. In this way, the poisonous woman and her son will be able to go to the top."
After finishing speaking, Zhang's expression of hatred: "Just to satisfy their selfish desires, they turned a blind eye to the millions of people in Liaodong. Why didn't God hack these beasts to death?" Let Donghu people enter the pass, the people of Liaodong They became the cattle and sheep in their eyes, let them slaughter.
Zhang Enting also had this speculation, otherwise he wouldn't come over and tell Zhang about it.
After hearing this, Zhang Enting looked sad. These soldiers shed blood and sacrificed to guard the border city, but the emperor actually favored the traitorous concubine so faintly.
Zhang finished cursing and said: "En Ting, the Song family killed your eldest brother, so they will definitely not let you go. En Ting, you have to take care of yourself."
Zhang Enting smiled bitterly and said: "I have asked to fight, and tomorrow I will lead my troops to stop the Donghu people."
"Enting..." If you call for a fight now, you are going to die.
How can Zhang Enting not know what Mrs. Zhang can think of: "Sister-in-law, the emperor and the Song family deserve to die, but the people of Liaodong are innocent." This land has given birth to him, and he can't just watch the Donghu people let it here. The creatures are charcoal.
Zhang's heart was congested, but she knew she couldn't persuade Zhang Enting. Just like a husband, he never thought of leaving Tongcheng for half a step even if he knew the danger.
Ten thousand words, Zhang finally turned into a sentence: "En Ting, you must come back alive."
This Zhang Enting himself cannot guarantee, but for the sake of Zhang's heart, he still said: "Sister-in-law, I will definitely come back alive."
Zhang nodded with tears in his head.
Zhang Enting hesitated and said, "Sister-in-law, if you can, you will leave Shengjing with Wushuang in the past two days to find a place no one knows to avoid the limelight. You will come back after the Donghu people are driven away."
Zhang cried out: "When the funeral is over, I will leave Shengjing with Wushuang for the time being." As for where to go, she hasn't decided yet.
"Sister-in-law, I can't send off my eldest brother in funeral."
Before returning, Zhang Enting knocked three heads towards Marshal Xiang Yan's coffin. There were no corpses in the coffin, just some clothing worn by Marshal Yan.
There was a mess in Shengjing, and all the people who cherished their lives ran away in a swarm. However, many people still came to express their condolences on the day when the Yan family opened the sacrifice.
Because it was a special situation, Zhang planned to mourn the next day. When the husband and the second son entered the soil earlier, they would feel at ease.
To be mourned, it is natural that Yan Wushuang holds the spirit. Zhang Clan was afraid that Yan Wushuang would be upset, and said: "Wushuang, my mother hopes that your father and your second brother are still alive in dreams. But this is reality. We have to accept it even if it is cruel." Her heart was bleeding, but for The youngest son still had to gritted her teeth.
Yan Wushuang hugged Zhang and cried, "Mother..." Even if he kept telling himself, the news was false. But so many people came to express their condolences, and many of them came from the army, and he couldn't lie to himself anymore.
Zhang grabbed Yan Wushuang's shoulder and said, "Wushuang, wipe away the tears, the man in the Yan family bleeds without tears."
Yan Wushuang quickly wiped his tears and said, "Mother, don't worry, I will avenge my father and brothers." His father and two brothers died in the hands of Donghu people. He will avenge this bloody hatred one day.
Zhang nodded and said, "Wu-shuang, mother believes you can do it."
The mother and son were talking, they saw the housekeeper rushing in and saying: "Madam, young master, it's not good, someone led soldiers to surround our house."
The mother and son stood up immediately.
