Chapter 262 Chuzhou
Li Xiaoyao tilted his head and looked at him. Su Zicheng seemed to remember something. He was about to speak for a moment. Dongping ran over with a few steps and reported with a smile, "Master, Chuzhou has been attacked." Su Zicheng's eyebrows flew up and down. He turned to look at Li Xiaoyao and smiled and said, "I'll ask you to escort you into the city. Walk slowly on the road. It's best to go to the city in the evening, but even if there is a street fight, it must be over."
"Where are you going?" Li Xiaoyao was so scared that he pulled Su Zicheng's sleeve and asked in fear that such a Shura hell was the safest to follow him! Su Zicheng looked down at Li Xiaoyao's two hands holding his sleeves tightly and explained in a daze, "I want to go outside Yangzhou. It's best to go there now. Yangzhou City hasn't received the letter from here yet. I'll go back quickly and I can come back in the middle of the night. Don't worry." Li Xiaoyao looked at Su Zicheng entangledly. It's not that she was worried about him. She was worried about herself. This hand, let go, don't let go, don't let go. It seemed a little unreasonable. Su Zicheng looked at Li Xiaoyao's hand loosen and tightened, but refused to let go. After a long time, he suddenly said, "I'll send it first." If you go to the city and go back to Yangzhou, you won't be in a hurry. You have to rest and rest in Chuzhou. You can't be stable first. You can't be too anxious. Li Xiaoyao breathed a sigh of relief, let go of his hand, and muttered shyly, "Your Majesty is wise."
Li Xiaoyao was uncomfortable with Su Zicheng and hurriedly searched for the topic: "Is Chuzhou empty? Did it come down so soon?"
"Well, Shi Guozhu is a fool. There are 5,000 tiger-winged troops, half of whom meet the enemy, and the other half drives Shi Guozhu and hundreds of his own soldiers to escape to Chuzhou. It seems that this fool has really fled back to Chuzhou. It's not easy for him to open the city gate and take Chuzhou!" Su Zicheng explained with a relaxed smile. Li Xiaoyao laughed for a long time and said, "How dare he go back to Chuzhou? This is too•••••” Li Xiaoyao didn't know how to describe it for a moment. Su Zicheng stood up, stretched out his hand and took Li Xiaoyao and said with a smile, "Come on, let's rush into Chuzhou and have a look. This war is the most afraid of defeat, and the defeat is like a mountain. This is the most dizzy. For the first time I led the army to meet the enemy and was washed up by the flanks. At that time, I was stunned. I just want to run back. This Shi Guozhu has not gone through a war and is a self-prouding Confucian general. I'm afraid he hasn't even killed anyone himself. This defeat naturally has to escape to his home. Let's go and go to Chuzhou to have a look.
The two got on the horse, and Su Zicheng ran in the middle of the team. Along the way, he met seven or eight thousand people who handed over the order. Wu Di's defeated army rarely encountered it. Before they arrived, the group arrived outside Chuzhou City. Three or four miles away from Chuzhou City, Su Zicheng stopped his horse and looked at the black-bottomed imperial flag and the big flag embroidered with a huge 'liang' character floating in the wind on the head of the city. He nodded with satisfaction, shook the reins and just a few steps. A group of black horses rushed straight towards him, scattered on the periphery of the little men and guards, arched into the city.
At the gate, Li Xiaoyao turned his head and looked at the gate with almost no signs of fighting and the soldiers in black nailed like nails inside and outside the gate. It seemed that the damage in Chuzhou was not as serious as he thought. When he entered the city gate, there was green smoke everywhere in the city. Li Xiaoyao's heart sank and walked dozens of steps to turn. Li Xiaoyao stared at the brand-new ruins with sparks and smoke in front of him. The frightened and frightened figures between the ruins appeared from time to time. Li Xiaoyao's heart became a ball. He turned his head and looked at the tiger-winged generals around him. As Su Zicheng said, blood condensed between their faces and necks, and there was no bleeding in black armor. The stains only looked wet. Li Xiaoyao swallowed it abruptly. They can't be blamed. If they care about all kinds of things, maybe they won't live now.
Li Xiaoyao turned his head and looked at Su Zicheng and asked in a low voice, "When will my people enter Chuzhou?" In this city, the hotter the weather is, the sooner the better. Su Zicheng quickly turned his head and looked at Dongping. Dongping replied with a smile, "I will leave before noon. I will definitely arrive in the first half of the night." Li Xiaoyao said 'um', and Su Zicheng turned his head and looked around and said, "Let Nanning take a few people to help you. Don't worry. Don't be tired." Li Xiaoyao exhaled and turned his head to look at Nanning and ordered, "Go to the Zhizhou government office to find all the living officials." Nanning agreed, took a few little ones, asked the way, and ran to the Chuzhou government gate.
The leader of the tiger wing army next to him arched his hand and smiled, "Master, Fifth Master, Shi Guozhu and Zhizhou Wu Chengshan are now in charge of the government. Most of the Zhizhou government is burned, which is not very useful." Su Zicheng said 'um', and Li Xiaoyao nodded with a smile.
The group went straight to the government office. After the government office was Shi Guozhu's residence. Shi Guozhu's family did not follow Chuzhou. Only two concubines in the mansion came to wait for the living. At this time, they had long been detained. Dongping quickly went into the house to clean up the places. Su Zicheng and Li Xiaoyao got off their horses at the door of the government office. Su Zicheng He turned his head to look at Li Xiaoyao and whispered, "See these two people first?" Li Xiaoyao hurriedly nodded, and the two entered the government hall one after another. In a moment, several guards in black took Shi Guozhu and Wu Chengshan, the governor of Chuzhou, and threw them into the lobby.
Li Xiaoyao looked at the two carefully. Shi Guozhu was about 40 years old. He was slightly fat, with a white and civilized face. He had a beard of two or three inches long, a crow's green shirt and a green cloth bag. In addition to the clothes at the bundled, he was actually clean and tidy. Li Xiaoyao was speechless. This Shi Guozhu was really a Confucian general. Wu Chengshan stood next to Shi Guozhu, stared at him contemptuously, moved aside a little, and moved a little bit. Li Xiaoyao looked at him with interest. He was also about 40 years old, wearing a white bamboo cloth gown. He looked too dry and thin. His hair was white, covered with an ebony hairpin, with deep wrinkles on his face and clear eyes. And Li looks like a clear official. Su Zicheng took the folding fan from Beiqing's hand and shook it. He looked leisurely at Li Xiaoyao and looked at the two. Li Xiaoyao looked carefully and turned his head to Su Zicheng. Su Zicheng pouted and motioned her to ask. Li Xiaoyao turned his head with a smile, passed Shi Guozhu, and looked at Wu Chengshan and asked with a smile, "Lord Wu, please sit down." The young man immediately sent a stool. Wu Chengshan glanced at Li Xiaoyao with the corners of his eyes, slowly turned his body with his hands behind his back, and looked at the beams of the house.
Su Zicheng moved and sat comfortably. He looked at Wu Chengshan with an interested face and waited to watch the bustle. Li Xiaoyao didn't care. While looking at Danyue making tea, he smiled and said, "Do you know the situation in Chuzhou City?" Wu Chengshan held his head high and said nothing. Li Xiaoyao didn't care about him and continued to say to himself, "It seems that you don't know. Let me tell you, when you come in from the north gate, there is smoke everywhere, and two or three houses along the street are burned and destroyed. According to the estimates seen, two or three of the people in Chuzhou, the victims are the most important thing now. How many households are there in Chuzhou City to quickly relieve the people, apply medicine and food, and settle down the homeless people? Li Xiaoyao looked at Wu Chengshan and asked. Wu Chengshan's throat moved, squeezed his mouth tightly, and still didn't say a word. Li Xiaoyao sighed, "It seems that you don't know that there are generals like General Shi who drive generals to death, and there are three people like you who don't know the state, and only pity the people of Chuzhou! Seeing that the people of Chuzhou were harmed by you and others, and so miserable that our prince could not have the heart to travel thousands of miles and save the people upside down?
Wu Chengshan's blue veins on his neck burst out, pointed to Li Xiaoyao and scolded, "Little man!"
"The villain still knows how to save the people, but you are not as good as the villain!" Li Xiaoyao said with a smile, "I have asked people to look for these Chuzhou officials and government officials. When they come, you can go back to the Zhizhou government office with them and quickly check the affected people. Look outside. It's going to rain, and you have to settle people down, especially the old, the weak, the young, the sick, and the wells everywhere. You also need to be taken care of. •••••" Li Xiaoyao stared at Wu Chengshan and ordered leisurely and one after another. Wu Chengshan's face changed from red to blue and then to white. He pointed to Li Xiaoyao's fingers and trembled constantly. Li Xiaoyao took the tea handed over by Dan Yue, slowly took two siblings. Looking at Wu Chengshan and smiled, "You are a clear official, famous for loving the people. Son, this love for the people actually depends on how to love. One kind of love, such as parents and children, as long as the people are good, fame and profit can be put aside, and they would rather destroy themselves for the people. A hundred years later, they can be regarded as gods by the people. One kind of holding the banner of loving the people is actually to seek fame and profit. If it is for your own fame and fortune, He did not hesitate to drive the people to die, just to fulfill himself and get the name of his life. He was spurned and despised behind him. Lord Wu, which one are you?
Wu Chengshan trembled, choked in one breath, and coughed violently. Su Zicheng looked at Li Xiaoyao and then at Wu Chengshan. He really didn't know what to say, but he didn't plan to speak. Li Xiaoyao looked at Wu Chengshan with a bent eyes and slowly tasted tea, as if he was not ready to say more.
Not at all, Nanning reported in. At this time, only the master Bo and four yamen were found, and the rest were still looking for. Li Xiaoyao nodded and looked at Wu Chengshan indifferently and ordered, "You go with Nanning. It's getting late. It's harder tonight. Sett settle down and rest. Go quickly." Wu Chengshan's face was gray. He looked at Li Xiaoyao in a daze and suddenly picked up his long shirt and rushed out. Beiqing muttered all the way and followed Nanning out to the door before turning back.
Shi Guozhu looked at Wu Chengshan running straight out, turned around and looked at Li Xiaoyao with a nervous face, and then at Su Zicheng. Li Xiaoyao seemed that there was no such person in the lobby. He looked at Su Zicheng and sighed, "This Wu Chengshan is admirable, but it's a pity!" Su Zicheng waved his hand, and several black guards came forward to drag Shi Guozhu down. Su Zicheng looked at Shi Guozhu being dragged out of the door, and then turned his head to look at Li Xiaoyao and said strangely, "Didn't he surrender?"
"He is ready to die! It's a pity to keep your name! You can't die in our hands! You let him go!" Li Xiaoyao turned his mind quickly and said jump. Su Zicheng was stunned and immediately reacted and asked, "Where should I let him go? Yangzhou? Or?"
