Chapter 9: The Dog That Bereaved
The soldiers and horses defending Gyeonggi were waiting in formation. The soldiers and horses of King Qin from all over the country did not wait, and the soldiers of Beidi also did not wait, but they waited for the rebels who came from the north and south, and attacked several counties near Gyeonggi at night.

Finally, several groups of rebels gathered towards the capital, forming a siege!

Several counties around Gyeonggi are devastated like locusts passing through the border!

This ending was beyond the expectation of the emperor sitting on the dragon chair and the officials in the court.

People in the capital were in a state of panic, and those who hadn't escaped out of the city in advance were panicking, regretting that they hadn't fled with their families earlier.

The funeral team of King Qian's Mansion fled all night, and finally escaped the attack range of the rebels near Gyeonggi when the sky was turning white.

After the guards who explored the road ahead came to report, the captain of the guard rode to the center of the team and asked the opinions of the masters.

"Princess, my lords, there is a forest in front of the hill, which is hidden enough, we can take a rest for a while, and we will make plans when the people sent to inquire about the news come back."

Hearing this, Uncle Li Chengshang looked at Xia Jing with questioning eyes.

After a night of running around, Xia Jing's complexion was pale, her lips were chapped and peeled, but she gritted her teeth and did not make a sound.

At this time, because Yuan's body was weak and lacked exercise, no matter how strong her willpower was, it was now at the end of its strength.

Seeing the uncle of the palace looking at her, she could only nod helplessly.

Li Chengshang breathed a sigh of relief: "Then rest in the woods ahead."

Don't think that just because he is a man, he has good skills. In fact, he is just a prince who can read a little.Tossing on the horse all night, the sourness in it is not enough for outsiders.

The other masters were not much better, they were all listless and pale.

At the edge of the woods, Xia Jing was helped off the horse by Xiao Wu, and the two struggled, almost sitting on the ground.

Seeing this, Hongmei quickly put the burden on her back on the ground, and supported Xia Jing to sit on the burden.

"Princess, be careful."

Baimei fetched the water bag, pulled out the cork and handed it over: "Princess, drink some water."

Xia Jing took a few sips from the water bag, and then said to the two maidservants who were circling around her, "Don't be too busy, you guys also sit down and rest for a while, aren't you tired after driving all night?"

Baimei took the water bag, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Princess Xie is concerned, it's okay for us to ride the same horse, it's not too tired. The most tired ones are those who follow behind and run on their legs."

After being reminded, Xia Jing only now noticed that there were dozens of servants at the end of the line, both men and women, dressed in the clothes of servants in the mansion, but they all had sallow complexions, thin bodies, and The appearance of paranutrition.

At this moment, the team waited, and the group of people behind had already collapsed on the ground without any image.

"These people are servants of the mansion, why don't I know any of them?"

Xiaowu Li Chengmu came over with a small package, and he explained her doubts: "Strictly speaking, these people are your servants, they are servants bought temporarily the day before yesterday, and they are going to serve you in the underworld for your service. You send."

However, later on, a bandit happened on the way, and his mother and concubine unexpectedly came back from the dead, so the matter was over.

"Go to the underworld to serve me?!"

Xia Jing's eyes widened in shock, wouldn't it be what she thought?
孽 孽!
I have heard of sacrificial burials before, but only if I have heard of it.

What I thought was unattainable happened to me, how could Xia Jing feel so embarrassed?

Li Chengmu, who was born and bred, nodded indifferently: "Well, it is their blessing to go underground to serve your mother and concubine. They are all voluntary. They will be able to serve you with peace of mind if they get the money to settle their families. , so the money given by the steward is twice the usual money for selling one’s body.”

Xia Jing opened her mouth, but she was speechless. Sacrifice was prevalent in the times, and she was temporarily powerless to refute.

"After running all night, I'm already hungry." Xiaowu Li Chengmu opened the small package in his hand: "It's still my concubine who has the foresight, knows how to plan for rainy days, and prepare dry food in advance."

As he said that, he handed Xia Jing a piece of biscuits, and when he was done, he still boasted: "Your son and I are smart enough, and I didn't forget to bring my dry food with me when I came out of the inn, otherwise, we should be hungry right now." gone."

Xia Jing took the biscuit and tore a small piece into her mouth. It was very chewy, but it was a bit tooth-consuming.

After one sesame seed cake, my stomach is almost full.

Xia Jing raised her head and drank a few more sips of water, only to find that the two big maids were staring at her in surprise: "What's wrong?"

The two big maids shook their heads, lowered their heads hastily and continued to struggle with the sesame seed cakes.

Seeing this, Xia Jing suddenly had a flash of light in her mind. She remembered that when she first saw them yesterday, their eyes were complicated and difficult to understand. Could it be that the two of them were also members of the funeral?
Xia Jing doesn't know the truth about herself anymore, and she doesn't have time to get to the bottom of it right now.Because everyone was attracted by the guards who came running on horseback.

The scouts are back!
Last night, the rebels who raided several counties near Gyeonggi were rebels from several prefectures near Gyeonggi.

The rebel army claims to have an army of . Is there really a army?
No one bothers about this point. In the absence of other Qinwang soldiers and horses in the Gyeonggi area, even if there are less than 5 mobs, the people in the garrison camp in the capital dare not face to face. The measures they will take are to defend the city not out.

Because today's Dayu dynasty is precarious, and it is almost the time of life and death.

If the counterattack was successful, it would be fine to defeat the rebels, but if they were defeated, then the old emperor's obscene pants would be completely lost, and there would be no chance of a comeback.

The emperor can't afford to lose!
But being besieged by the rebels is not a long-term solution.

"Mother Concubine, what do you think we should do?" Li Chengshang's face was miserable. At this moment, the dawn rising in the east was like the setting sun at dusk, making people see no hope.

Xia Jing glanced at the crowd, and raised her eyebrows: "Didn't you make up your mind a long time ago, what good advice can I give you as a woman in a deep house who doesn't go out of the house?"

Li Chengshang was slightly startled, he didn't expect that the stepmother would not accept the offer.

He sighed, and changed the subject: "At the moment, I'm in a mess, I really have no idea."

Xia Jing snorted coldly in her heart, and believed your ghost!
It's just that her good stepson wants to stand up after being a stepson, and wants her to be the rafter in the early stage, so he can benefit from hiding behind, is it possible?

The fourth master Li Chengyi walked over slowly with weird steps: "Brother, you are the eldest son, you have to make up your mind about this matter, we can't hide in the wild all the time, eat and sleep in the open, if the rebels don't retreat for a month, can it be We still have a month left in the wild?"

After running away like a bereaved dog, his ass is about to bloom, and if he keeps running away, he will be useless!

Uncle Li Chengshang pursed his lips, his face serious: "That's impossible! Everyone must have a place to live."

Xiaowu Li Chengmu scratched his head: "There's no need to worry about this matter. We send people to find a way to sneak into the city and rescue the father and the king, or ask other state capitals for help, so that they can send more troops to rescue them."

Xia Jing patted Xiao Wu on the head lightly, a young man who has not experienced much in the world is too simple and stupid, there is no simple word in the world.
