The concubine is enchanting: the favorite princess

Chapter 345 It's a Massacre!

Moli's order was to march overnight after leaving the city, and drive another twenty miles before stopping to rest.After walking for more than five miles, they saw a group of lit torches coming towards them.Judging from the torch alone, the number of people on both sides is about the same.

The other party obviously also saw the situation here, and soon a fast horse ran towards this side.Mo Li held the horse's head and waited for the other party to approach. From the other party's clothes, he could tell that this person was indeed a boss.

Seeing that it was Moli, the chief executive reported his name first, "The general who reported the war, the villain Fu Sheng, is a chief executive in front of King Anping. He took the imperial decree and went to Yueya'er City to seal the city and control the epidemic. diffusion."

Mo Li let out a "hmm", thought for a moment and asked, "Is this King Anping here?"

"No. King Anping is still sitting in Yingcheng, forty miles away. He ordered the villain and another Qianzong to go to Yueya'er City."

"Oh." Mo Li agreed without paying much attention.Order the rear team to get out of the way, intending to let this team pass first.After all, the other party was ordered by the emperor, and it was an urgent task. As a general, Mo Li was not a person who didn't know what to do.

"Thank you General Zhan." After Fu Sheng thanked him, he immediately pulled his horse back and led the team past Mo Li and them.

Seeing the soldiers passing by in a hurry, Mo Li frowned, feeling that something was wrong.

At this moment, Feng Yao also raised the curtain of the carriage, looked at the pair of people passing by outside, and frowned the same.Then he waved to Moli, signaling Moli to come over.

Feng Yao asked: "Buli, do you feel something is wrong? These soldiers... are all lightly dressed, and there are no vehicles with medicinal materials to follow them, let alone any of them look like doctors."

Mo Li also nodded and said: "Yes. Logically speaking, the closure of the city is only to prevent the people from entering and leaving. But doctors need to be sent into the city to treat the sick people. Only when the sick people in the city are completely cleared can the city be closed again. The door opens, allowing entry and exit. But the pair..."

Feng Yao had been staring at the passing soldiers, and suddenly noticed another detail.If these soldiers go to seal the city, they will have to stay outside the city for a period of time. Even if they don't bring luggage, they should at least bring some dry food, right?

But these soldiers did not have dry food bags, but none of them carried a bundle of branches.Although it is not a big bundle, it is not very heavy, but when the branches carried by 2000 people are gathered together, how big a fire should be raised?

Suddenly, Feng Yao stretched out his small hand from the car window, and grabbed Mo Li's sleeve.Mo Li was still on the horse, leaning over to talk to Feng Yao, he was taken aback when he grabbed her, knowing that Feng Yao was extremely nervous.

"Buli, these soldiers didn't go to seal the city, they should... go to slaughter the city." When Feng Yao said the word "slaughter the city", his heart couldn't help but tighten for a while.

Mo Li's frowning brows were relieved because of his doubts, but his heart became heavier, and he nodded, "That's right, those dry branches are used to burn the corpses."

"Then what should we do? Half of the people in the city are not infected by the plague, and maybe they can be saved. And if we take measures, maybe the plague will be brought under control. As long as the treatment is done properly, many people can survive. And... and there are so many old and weak women and children in the city, are they all going to be..."

Feng Yao couldn't continue, he tightly grasped Moli's sleeve, his eyes were full of surprise and sorrow.

She wasn't sad or pitiful, she was just surprised by the emperor's order, and even more mournful for the lives of the people.

"I'll ask." Mo Li gritted his teeth, knowing that Feng Yao couldn't bear to see people die in vain, how could he bear it?Years of wars have been raging in the Yunqing Kingdom, and internal worries have worsened, making the people miserable.Now it's just a plague, is it going to slaughter the people of a city!
Only then did Feng Yao let go of his hand, but instead of retreating back into the car, he raised the car curtain high, poked his head out and watched Mo Li chasing after him.

Moli's horse quickly caught up with Fu Sheng's horse, and he threw the horse across in front of the group, blocking their way.

Seeing Mo Li coming again, Fu Sheng hurriedly pulled his horse forward, cupped his fists and said, "I don't know what orders General Zhan has?"

"I'm going to ask you, are you going to seal the city, or to massacre it?" Mo Li pursed his thin lips tightly after asking, his jaw curved into a rigid arc, his beautiful peach blossom eyes were also piercing, his whole body was sharp, The domineering aura makes one almost feel like being blown by a cold wind.

Fu Sheng couldn't help taking a breath, and turned his head to look at the other man behind him on the left. Presumably the other man was also named Qian Zong, but he should be the chief envoy of this march.

Mo Li also followed Fu Sheng's gaze to look at that person, his cold eyes beckoning him to answer him directly.

The man was about [-] years old, although his body was not very strong, his arms were unusually strong, and his sleeves were tightly squeezed by his muscles. It could be seen that he was a fierce general who was good at using heavy weapons.

When the man looked at Moli, there was a moment of disdain in his eyes, as if he felt that this young and beautiful man was too busy.Immediately he snorted, and said: "General Hui Zhan, the villain Yan Ke, is the close entourage of King Anping. The imperial decree that King Anping received from the emperor is a death order, and King Anping dare not disobey it." , don’t talk about villains.”

This sounded like a bureaucratic perfunctory, talking about the emperor's fate.But after careful consideration, it was clear that the emperor and King Anping were used to suppress Moli.

This Anping Wang Moli also knows best.He is the younger brother of the former emperor and the uncle of the current emperor.Thinking back to the old general Mo's first defeat in his life, the late emperor didn't blame him too much, and even offered to reward and comfort him.

But it was this King Anping who insisted on letting Yunqing Kingdom send a hostage to Fengjue Kingdom, saying that it was to prevent Fengjue Kingdom from giving Yunqing Kingdom a chance to breathe and fight fiercely all the way to the end.The emperor was already sick at that time, and his thoughts were naturally not as good as before, so he even agreed to King Anping's memorial.

It's just that when Mo Li led the Mo family army to help the fourth prince Yan Jin succeed to the throne, King Anping didn't object much, nor did he stand by the prince.On the surface, he seemed to be afraid of the resurgent Mojia army, but Mo Li knew that this King Anping would not be too honest.Because if it weren't for Moli, the person who ascended the throne might be him, King Anping.

What's more, as soon as Mo Li returned to the capital, King Anping pulled Princess Rou out and asked the emperor to marry him.After Moli shied away, it seemed that he didn't mention it anymore, but this time Moli borrowed 20 soldiers from the emperor, and it was King Anping who asked the emperor to speak behind the scenes and make the marriage of Princess Rou as a condition.

Now that King Anping's big hat is under pressure, Mo Xin hesitates.One is for the thousands of surviving people in Crescent Moon City, so they confronted King Anping and tore their faces; the other is to continue marching, as if they were just passing by.
