As night falls, the town becomes deathly quiet and eerie.
Thin footsteps walked through it, and a beam of fire suddenly lit up in the dark night. Soon more torches were lit, and chaotic footsteps poured into the town like a tide, and the firelight illuminated the scene after the catastrophe.
"There are no living people in the town." Zhongwu said when he came to Li Minglou.
Li Minglou was silent for a moment: "Find some supplies and take a short rest."
Some people rested on the spot, while others continued to search. Soon there was a noise in the town, and Xu Yue came quickly with a smile on his face under the firelight.
"Young madam, find a room full of rice, flour, wine, meat, and gold, silver and jewelry." He said.
Zhongwu nodded: "The rebels we killed earlier were guarding the warehouse here."
Li Minglou said: "Eat tonight's meal, take tomorrow's meal, and burn the rest."
Since it is the food and fodder for the rebels, of course it must be burned and not kept for them to eat and drink. Zhou Xian responded and asked: "Those gold, silver and jewels should be hid first?"
Li Minglou looked at him and seemed a little confused: "Why hide them?"
Zhou Xian was also puzzled: "Then burn them too?"
Li Minglou nodded: "Yes."
"But, those are gold and silver jewelry" Zhou Xian glared.
Li Minglou said: "What's the use of gold, silver and jewelry? You can't eat or drink them."
What Zhou Xian was about to say, Xu Yue said first: "Young Madam is right, we don't have time to hide these now, we have to continue on our way after eating. Judging from the time it took for the body to decompose, Fan Yangjun has already passed three days. "
After saying that, he took the torch from the soldier next to him.
"I'll go with you."
Li Minglou nodded: "You go ahead and take a break and have a meal as soon as possible."
Xu Yue and Zhou Xian responded and left side by side. Xu Yue immediately kicked Zhou Xian as they left.
"What are you doing? You're confused." He whispered, "What kind of gold, silver and jewelry are you hiding at this time!"
"Just do it casually." Zhou Xian argued, "It won't waste any time."
Xu Yue raised her feet and stared again.
Zhou Xian hurriedly dodged: "Okay, okay, I know I was wrong!"
Xu Yue then gave up.
"It's money after all. I was thinking of bringing some to the capital to give to Crow." Zhou Xian whispered again, "Just stuff some with you and it won't take up the weight of the place."
Xu Yue sighed: "You still said it!" and asked, "Have we got what we need?"
At this time, they had already reached the warehouse, and the soldiers were also talking in low voices around them. When they heard the question, a general responded.
Xu Yue threw the torch in his hand, and the soldiers also threw the torch in without hesitation, and the town burst into flames.
Li Minglou turned her back to the firelight. Xu Yue's words about gold, silver and jewelry were finished as soon as she said them, and she didn't care.
"The rebels have hoarded the looted materials here. The situation in Yizhou must be very critical," she said.
Zhongwu said: "There should be soldiers and horses on King Zhao's side, I don't know what it is like."
"It's a bit unconfident to say this. Not to mention that they don't know how the soldiers and horses of King Zhao are, they don't even know what kind of person King Zhao is. Many times, they forget that there is King Zhao.
Li Minglou didn¡¯t know what kind of person King Zhao was, let alone what his soldiers and horses were like.
The soldiers and horses should not be very good, otherwise King Zhao would not be killed.
King Zhao¡¯s qualifications were not very good. The intelligent and versatile emperor disliked this stupid kid very much. He was enfeoffed to the remote Yizhou early. The father and son have not seen each other for decades.
"No one mentioned King Zhao for decades. After King Zhao died, not much about him was spread. From the stories of Jiang Liang and Liu Fan, we can outline a greedy, lustful, fat, stupid and mediocre prince.
"This prince dares to lead the entire palace to fight the rebels to protect the people in the city. He is not considered mediocre." She commented at the time.
The evaluations circulated and written in history books are also such evaluations.
Liu Fan chuckled and blew the fragrant tea: "You can also believe the words in the history books."
This time Jiang Liang did not refute, and said thoughtfully: "It is also said that when the rebels arrived, King Zhao took the palace people out of the city to surrender and greet them. He wanted to continue to be a wealthy prince, but unfortunately he was intimidated by the desire to establish his authority and fame. The rebels killed him without ceremony.¡±
There are different opinions.
King Zhao died, Yizhou was massacred, and the world was in chaos, but no one went to find out the truth. The new emperor who returned to the capital after the chaos did not need the truth.
Li Minglou looked to the east. The night was so dark that he couldn't even see the stars.
Can she see the truth in this life?
Going east and east, across the deserted land, countless stars appeared on the ground, and the stars surrounded a city from night to dawn.
Looking at the racks and boxes and stacks of rare treasures in this hall, King Zhao, who was nearly fifty years old and still had black hair, stood at the door and cried like a child.
"My baby, my baby." He cried as he walked over and stretched out his hand to touch it, "I have saved it for decades."
His body was very fat, and his brand-new princely clothes were too tight. He could not breathe after crying for a while, and had to pull at his clothes to catch his breath.
"If I had known there would be a day when I would need to wear this, I should have made a fitting one earlier." He sighed, lamented the clothes, and cried again against a box full of jewelry.
The eunuchs following him were also crying.
"Your Majesty, burn all these." A gray-haired eunuch said.
King Zhao hurriedly closed the box: "No, no, let's give it to the people in Ankang Mountain, lest they see us burning it and get angry and kill people."
The gray-haired eunuch nodded: "Your Majesty is right, the reputation of Yizhou City and Tianjia can be given away, so a house full of treasures is nothing."
The other eunuchs in the palace lowered their heads, and the atmosphere was a bit solemn and awkward.
King Zhao pulled on his clothes to make himself more comfortable, and sighed sadly: "Daxi, there is no need to say this, no need."
The old eunuch who was called Daxi sighed: "Your Majesty, Daxi entered the palace at the age of ten, and was given the prince's companionship by His Majesty. Daxi is a slave of the Tian family, and he will be a slave of the Tian family even after he dies. Daxi is an imperfect person, and he will have no shame to die. To see my parents and ancestors, if I follow the prince and kneel in front of the rebels now, my face will be lost, and even if I die, I won¡¯t be able to see the face of the Tian family.¡±
King Zhao muttered helplessly: "Whatever you want, then whatever you want, it's all like this."
Daxi kowtowed to him, then raised his head: "I want to die first."
"That's it." King Zhao couldn't bear it any longer. He untied the belt of the prince's dress, finally exhaled smoothly, and looked at Daxi again, "Then you die."
The overjoyed response was: "I will no longer serve the prince."
After saying that, he took out the knife from his sleeve and stabbed it into the chest fiercely. He bent over and fell down, and blood spread on the ground.
All this happened so suddenly that the surrounding eunuchs screamed in fright.
King Zhao was also startled and pointed with his hand: "Oh my God, why are you hiding the knife? If it gets out, it will cause trouble for us."
