Chapter seven hundred and sixteen in danger
When Yan Liqiang heard Concubine Rong say that, he understood that it was just a self-comfort. How could so many people in the palace let everyone leave through the secret passage? If this is the case, then the secret passage is still a secret passage? Wouldn't it become a square open on all sides?
So the most real situation is that the Emperor's Majesty arranged for the departure of the secret passage not only by His Royal Highness and Concubine Rong, but others should have left the secret passage, but the number of people should not be too large. At that time, His Majesty the Emperor did not know the situation outside the city, thinking that it would be safer outside the city. Under the circumstances at that time, it would be better than staying in the palace and waiting to die.
The prince's side who came out of the secret passage had already been killed. Concubine Rong's side had barely reached Luyuan now. As for whether the other people who led to the secret passage survived, whether they were still safe, and whether they encountered other dangers and changes, it only depends on their lives. The reality is so cruel.
A day ago, these people lived a life of luxury and food. Unexpectedly, they turned into refugees in the blink of an eye. They may have to face countless walking corpses and dangerous environments, and they will be in danger at any time. Such a transformation is enough to make people collapse, which not everyone can bear.
After gradually understanding the current situation, the atmosphere in the room gradually became a little depressed. Everyone's faces were not good-looking. Only Concubine Rong was still energetic and comforted herself, "Maybe the situation is not that serious. After all, it was night, it was dark and no one could see all the places clearly. The people outside the city saw that the imperial capital was in chaos, and perhaps they would also be in chaos!"
"What my sister said is, at this time, we should not be distracted. Maybe Your Majesty will bring people soon..." Concubine Rui responded and forced a smile and said, Concubine Rui is different from Concubine Duan. She has a standard melon-shaped face and willow-leaf eyebrows. She is also a standard beauty. She is two years younger. She speaks softly, like the spring breeze blowing on her face, and has a unique charm.
Concubine Yi was dignified and beautiful, with vivid beautiful eyes, and she had a graceful demeanor. She had just seen Princess Anping feel uncomfortable. She had already moved her footsteps and sat next to Princess Anping. She gently patted Princess Anping's hand and comforted Princess Anping who was sobbing. Hearing Concubine Rui's words, Concubine Yi turned her head, her pair of apricot eyes also had a faint tear and sighed, "We are actually very lucky. When the disaster comes, there are still secret passages to hide. If it is true as Concubine Rui said, it is naturally the best. But the many sisters in the palace, last night... I'm afraid that they had already encountered an accident..."
Yan Liqiang didn't explain anything, because he knew that Elder Liu would come soon and smash the last trace of luck in the hearts of these women.
Concubine Duan bit her lips gently, frowned slightly, her eyes turned to Concubine Rong and several women, and finally turned to Yan Liqiang, her eyes moved, "No matter what, the more difficult it is at this time, the more we need to be united in order to overcome this difficulty, Lord Yan, do you think I'm right?"
"Well, what Concubine Duan said makes sense. At this time, everyone should be united in one rope to overcome difficulties together!" Yan Liqiang glanced at Concubine Duan and responded.
"I wonder if Mr. Yan has seen His Majesty and other ministers in the court from last night to now?" Concubine Rong continued to ask.
After all kinds of thoughts turned around Yan Liqiang's head, Yan Liqiang shook his head, "I have never seen Your Majesty. As for other ministers in the court, I have seen a few of them except Lord Sun..."
"Ah, I wonder which ministers they are and where they are?" Concubine Rong suddenly felt a little excited.
"The ministers I saw were all dead, and the house was full of blood. A group of servants and guards lay on the ground to bite them. There were two moving people, wearing official uniforms, but they had turned into walking corpses, with bloody eyes and blood on the corners of their mouths. They could no longer speak, and they could only scream like wild beasts, mingling among the mobs, and rushing to the palace together. According to the current appearance of the Imperial Capital, there are probably no ten officials in the court who can run out of the Imperial Capital alive..."
Concubine Rong's face turned pale again, "Last night, some people in the palace started to bite people crazy. The same was true for a eunuch in Xiuning Palace, and even bit a palace maid to death. They said that these people were possessed by evil spirits, but they... how could they become like this..."
"I don't know..."
Elder Liu, who was a royal family, did act quickly. He just left here for a few minutes and saw a flash of people outside the yard. Elder Liu had already returned and strode into the room.
Seeing Elder Liu come back, Concubine Rong and everyone else in the room suddenly gathered on Elder Liu.
"Elder Liu, what's the situation outside?" Concubine Rong asked anxiously.
Elder Liu's face was a little gloomy than when he left before, and he was a little blue. He glanced at Yan Liqiang and said in a hoarse voice, "Mr. Yan is right. There are no living people in the villages near Luyuan now. There are evil walking dead everywhere. The village is not only living people, but also living pigs, chickens, cats and dogs. The corpses are everywhere, like ghosts. I have lived for such a lifetime and have never seen such a bloody and disgusting scene. This Luyuan is not a safe place. I may not know when they will be discovered by those mobs. What should I do? I would like to ask the Empress to decide..."
The news brought by Elder Liu completely wiped out the last trace of luck in the hearts of Concubine Rong and others. Concubine Rong and several other women suddenly changed their beauty. Even the palace maids in the room suddenly lost their blood on their faces. After half a minute, Concubine Rong said in a trembling voice, "What happened to this imperial capital city, and there are still troops from the four capitals that can be mobilized..."
"Yes, there are still troops from the four capitals that can be mobilized..." Ruifei continued, "We can wait for reinforcements here..."
"Yes, the court has a large army, and all the troops from all over the country can be mobilized..." Concubine Duan also spoke.
Several women were talking all of a word and began to cheer themselves up. Only Yan Liqiang was silent and said nothing. After talking for a while, those women found that Yan Liqiang didn't say anything, so they all stopped suddenly.
"Why didn't Lord Yan say a word?" Concubine Rong's eyes fell on Yan Liqiang's face and asked.
"It has been a lot of time since the appearance of the beacon smoke in the Imperial Capital last night. The beacon smoke can be seen thousands of miles away, which is an emergency order. If everything is normal in the Four Valleys, the cavalry of the Four Valleys set out to rescue last night. Now the cavalry team has already arrived at the Imperial Capital. The official road outside the Luyuan leads to the western capital. I have asked people to pay attention to the situation on the official road on the wall, but until now, there is no sign of reinforcements on the official road. Therefore, it is obvious that there is only one reason. It is not that the soldiers and horses in the Four Valleys do not come when they see the beacon smoke, but the current situation in the Four Valleys is probably the same as the Imperial Capital. They are unable to protect themselves and have been in chaos. They cannot draw any soldiers to rescue them at all..."
"Then...whether the soldiers from other prefectures and counties are there, will they...they always come?"
"The land of the capital is now in chaos. If those people outside are considered to be possessed by evil spirits, the number of people in the capital area in the capital area may be at least four or five million. In other words, the number of mobs in the capital area is now four or five million. Other people, no one is possessed by evil spirits, either they are bitten to death or have fled, becoming refugees and refugees. Therefore, at this time, millions of refugees and refugees poured into the states and counties adjacent to the capital area will surely become in chaos. Even if those prefectures and counties can resettle refugees and refugees at the fastest speed, you think you have to face the millions of mobs in the capital area in the capital area, how many troops will the entire Han Empire have to mobilize, and how long will it take to prepare for reinforcements?"
No one here is fool, and he still has a certain understanding of national affairs. After listening to Yan Liqiang's analysis, everyone suddenly understood their current situation...
The court is over!
The Han Empire may also be in chaos!
Reinforcements from each state will never come!
And it is still unknown whether they can leave this imperial capital alive...
In the midst of silence, Elder Liu's face turned particularly gloomy, "This is just a one-sided statement and inference from Lord Yan. The reason why reinforcements from the Four Capitals have not arrived yet may have been temporarily delayed by other things..."
Yan Liqiang was about to speak, and felt the movement coming from the sky outside. Yan Liqiang stood up and walked to the yard outside the hall. Amid the sound of flapping wings, a gray pigeon fell from the sky and landed on Yan Liqiang's arm. Yan Liqiang unbuttoned the message tube on the foot of the pigeon, opened it, looked at it, then walked into the room, handed the piece of letter paper carried in the message tube to Rong Guifei who had already stood up. "Please look, this is the urgent report from Feixin I just received. Last night, the four capitals and cities were in chaos, and several large camps of the imperial court fell. The fire in Huizhou City was exactly the same as the Imperial Capital City. Countless people turned into walking dead, and countless people fled their homes. The entire capital has now become purgatory, and several prefectures and counties that are close to the capital have also suddenly become chaotic. The situation is the same as what I had expected..."
Fein is ahead, which makes everyone in the room unable to believe it or not.
"Mr. Yan, who is this Feixin passed on... Can it be reliable?"
"The person who came to Feixin was Fang Beidou. The Empress should have heard of this person. These days, the court has given me a lot of road guides, so I have been arranging craftsmen who are willing to leave the Gyeonggi to live in the northwest. I have a lot of people under my command. These days, Fang Beidou is coordinating them, and they are all running around in the Gyeonggi and adjacent prefectures and counties to arrange various evacuation matters of craftsmen who are willing to leave the Gyeonggi on the road. This news is absolutely reliable!"
After hearing Yan Liqiang say this, Concubine Rong's face became paler and paler. Suddenly, Concubine Rong's body became soft and her eyes closed, and she fell directly towards Yan Liqiang...
Yan Liqiang instinctively hugged Concubine Rong's body. Concubine Rong fell softly into Yan Liqiang's arms, and his face was pressed on Yan Liqiang's shoulders, and his lips were about to touch Yan Liqiang's neck. Yan Liqiang suddenly felt soft and warm, hugging Concubine Rong's soft body, smelling the rose essence on Concubine Rong's hair in his nose, and feeling the two lustful and huge oppression on the Concubine's chest in his chest. Yan Liqiang was slightly stunned and shouted in his heart, "Damn! Damn! Why do you do this?"
"Ah, sister, what's wrong?" Concubine Duan, Concubine Rui, and Concubine Yi in the room all stood up all of a sudden, and the other palace maids were also in a panic, "Come here, the empress fainted..."
Just in this chaotic stand-up, Liu Xitong's voice shouted outside, "Sir, no, a group of mobs rushed outside Luyuan..."
Hearing Liu Xitong's voice, Yan Liqiang quickly handed Concubine Rong, who was fainting from her body, to the palace maid next to her, and took two steps back and said to Elder Liu, "I'll leave this here to Elder Liu. The situation outside is critical, I'll go and take a look first..."
After saying that, Yan Liqiang strode out of the room...
