Second-hand wife: Wang Ye's cute pet

Chapter 135

An Liuyan was dressed as a man, and she rode secretly to Shuifeng City while no one was looking.

There are soldiers guarding the gate of Shuifeng City.

"Who is here? The sheriff has ordered no one to enter or leave Shuifeng City." A soldier said fiercely to An Liuyan.

An Liuyan showed Xuan Muqing's badge, "Seeing the badge is like seeing the emperor."

"Long live my emperor."

"Open the city and let me in."

"This..." The soldier hesitated.

"Didn't you see the token? Aren't you afraid of losing your head?" An Liuyan sternly reprimanded.

The soldier opened the city gate and let An Liuyan enter Shuifeng City. The soldier still felt that something was wrong and finally said to An Liuyan, "Master, we are going to burn the city later. If you go in, if you can't get out... ..." The meaning of the soldiers is obvious, the people inside are absolutely not allowed to come out, even if you have the emperor's token, they will not dare to open the city gate. After all, if the city gate is opened, it will be troublesome for the people inside to escape.

Obviously, this entry is a dead end, waiting to be burned alive.

"I am free to arrange, you wait and retreat."

When An Liuyan entered the city, everyone in the city was surprised to see someone else coming in.They are sick with disease and know that their time is numbered.Fortunately, they didn't know that people from the government would come to set fire to the town, so they haven't rioted yet, and what they have is just helplessness in the face of the epidemic.

It is true that most of the people in the city are children, women, and the elderly. People who have changed the disease have blisters on their bodies, and the blisters fester and emit an unpleasant stench.

Lime, wormwood, and burnt wormwood are everywhere in the city, but the epidemic still cannot be effectively controlled.

An Liuyan looked at the elderly and children lying powerlessly on the ground. Their bodies were emaciated, and they moaned in pain, suffering from the attack of serious diseases.

An Liuyan covered her mouth. It wasn't the bad smell in the city that made her sick, but her heart ached when she saw it. Tears flowed down her cheeks, and she sobbed uncontrollably.

A child was leaning against a pillar, not far from An Liuyan. Seeing An Liuyan covering his mouth and crying, he said weakly, "Sister, why are you crying? You are not sick, why don't you leave? But your Has the family died?"

An Liuyan looked at him and shook his head, "Then you are much luckier than me, your parents are dead, they are all dead, and I am the only one left. I am very hungry and in pain, and dying early is actually an early relief. "

An eight or nine-year-old child said that dying early was actually an early liberation, which made An Liuyan even more sad.She can't do anything for them. In the face of illness, human beings are small, extremely small, and she can't do anything to change anything.

"Aren't you afraid?" An Liuyan asked tremblingly.

"Afraid? What are you afraid of? Death? I have seen too much these days. My relatives have left one by one, and my partners have also left. Now I am still alive alone, but I know I can't live How long, maybe tonight I will go with their team members." After a while, he suddenly said, "I haven't seen the sun for a long time, I really miss the smell of the sun."

An Liuyan looked at the boy in front of him. He was only eight or nine years old and was able to face death so calmly. Maybe it was because he had experienced too much. The tears had already dried up, and those who were frightened no longer knew what fear was, so what was left was Not sad or happy, waiting for death quietly like countless people before. Now in their eyes, death is not terrible, but a relief.

An Liuyan bid farewell to the boy and walked around the city silently. She saw many shocking scenes, and saw some three or four-year-old children screaming and moaning in pain on the ground, and then their parents were about to die with tears in their eyes. They kill, rather than watching them suffer and then die, it is better to let them die happily, at least they don't have to suffer too much torture before they die.

Close relatives send their close relatives up, and some friends watch their friends die. Death hovers over the city of Shuifeng. The dark clouds are like hell opening its mouth, swallowing the city of Shuifeng below.

An Liuyan's ideas were subverted in a very short period of time. She used to think that as long as she had the hope of being alive, she was living.

The shock of morality in her heart and the confusion of outlook on life and values ​​made her feel lonely and painful in Shuifeng City.

outside the city.

"What did you say? Someone took my token and went in?" Xuan Muqing furiously grabbed the soldiers guarding the city, "How could you let someone in!"

"He has a token and the servants can't help it." The soldiers knelt on the ground and trembled.

"Open the city gate, I want to go in." Xuan Muqing ordered the soldiers to open the city gate in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, you can't do it for fun." The sheriff knelt on the ground and hugged Xuan Muqing's leg, but was kicked away by Xuan Muqing.

"The emperor's wife may be infected with the plague at any time in the city, how can I not save her, she still has my child in her stomach."

"Your Majesty, you must focus on the overall situation. If you have any troubles, it will be the fault of the humble minister. What should I do with the foundation of Weiyang Kingdom? Please think twice, Your Majesty." After speaking of his words, all the officials behind him knelt down and shouted in unison. , "Please think twice, Your Majesty."

"Get out, get out of here." Xuan Muqing angrily shouted back everyone.

The soldiers held their torches high, surrounded by barrels of oil. They were planning to burn the city, but they didn't expect such an accident.

"I'll go, I'll go in and find my mother." Xuan Yehua said.

Xuan Muqing looked at Xuan Yehua and shook her head, "It's too dangerous, I'll go."

"Prince, please think twice, Your Majesty, please think twice. You can't play around. The plague in Shuifeng City is out of control now, and the people inside will die sooner or later. If you go in and get infected with the plague, it's Chen and others' dereliction of duty. They didn't stop the emperor and the prince. "The sheriff said with tears streaming down his cheeks.

Don't blame him, anyone in such a situation would be extremely helpless and frightened, if he can't stop Xuan Muqing today, he will have troubles.He is a sinner of Weiyang Kingdom, a sinner who will remain in the history books.

Xuan Muqing stopped talking nonsense with the officials, kicked the sheriff at her feet and flew onto the city wall, then went into the city to find An Liuyan.

"Your Majesty!" The officials outside were as anxious as ants on a hot pot, and almost fainted.

"My lord, will the city still be burned?" The officer who commanded the soldiers to burn the city asked the governor tremblingly.

"The emperor is inside, what are you still burning, you are sick."

The innocent soldiers who were scolded shrank their heads and ordered the soldiers to put out the torches and wait for the emperor to come out.

The county guard was so anxious that he could fly to the wall and enter the city to pick up Xuan Muqing and An Liuyan.

"It must be okay, it must be okay, Buddha bless, Buddha bless." The poor county guard could only keep praying to the gods to bless Xuan Muqing and An Liuyan, otherwise he would be a sinner through the ages, and he would be punished inevitably. The whole family of the nine clans was beheaded.

Xuan Muqing was also shocked when he saw the scene in the city, he didn't expect the situation to be so bad.When he found An Liuyan, An Liuyan was staying alone in a secluded place. She was sitting on a stone on the ground, looking ahead with dull eyes.

Xuan Muqing followed her gaze and saw a pair of brother and sister, the younger sister was dying in her brother's arms.

"Hua'er, in the next life, my brother will definitely take you to see the sea. Don't you like the sea the most? My brother will definitely take you there. My brother will buy a house by the sea and we will live there. We can see the sea every day, okay?"

The daughter in his arms nodded weakly, "I still have to bring Father and Mother along."

Tears flowed from the boy's eyes, and crystal clear tears dripped on the little girl's lips.

The little girl smacked her lips, "Tears are salty and not tasty."

The boy smiled sadly, "Otherwise, our family will be reborn in a fishing village near the sea in our next life. We go fishing every day and live by the sea. You will definitely like it."

The little girl looked at the boy, her eyes gradually became blurred.

The boy didn't cry loudly in sorrow, he quietly waited for the last moment of his sister, he quietly hugged her and sang her favorite songs to her.

An Liuyan's tears couldn't stop falling down in big ones.

Xuan Muqing picked her up, walked out of the city, reached the city wall, performed Qinggong and flew out of Shuifeng City.

"Set fire to the city." Xuan Muqing ordered coldly.

The soldiers lit the fire again, opened the oil barrel, and poured the oil inside into the city. In addition to the torches and oil, a group of archers had already been ready.

"Start shooting!"

With an order, the rocket fell into the city, and suddenly Shuifeng City began to panic. The screams of children, the screams of women, and the roars of men were extremely horrific.

The raging fire submerged Shuifeng City, just like the torrential rain and flood earlier, the city was swallowed up, and there was a scene of horrific but unavoidable cruelty.

"There is nothing we can do." This was the first sentence An Liuyan said.

"What is life, what is death, and what is the meaning of living?" This is her second sentence.

She looked at the sea of ​​flames, her eyes could no longer shed tears.

Xuan Muqing had a heavy heart, "Human beings are powerful but also fragile. We are powerless in front of nature. I know it's cruel, but it's the best way, and you don't think death is not a bad thing for them. ?"

"We must properly bury the dead, and provide relief and support to orphans." An Liuyan said lifelessly.

Xuan Muqing nodded.

"We must start to pay attention to medical talents and work hard to develop vaccines against epidemic diseases."

Xuan Muqing said hello.

An Liuyan's mind suffered a huge blow. She was very tired, and when she was so tired, she lay in Xuan Muqing's arms, her mind became dizzy for a while, and then she passed out.

Xuan Muqing hugged An Liuyan, holding her firmly in her hands, but her feet were walking like flying, An Liuyan's state made him very worried.

After returning to the sheriff's mansion, Xuan Muqing immediately summoned a doctor to diagnose An Liuyan's pulse.

"Reporting to the emperor, the empress is restless and has suffered great pain. She is now very weak and has faint symptoms of miscarriage."

"Is there any way to fix it?"

"Caomin will write a prescription for the empress, three times at a time. I also ask the emperor to persuade the empress to reassure her not to think wildly, and it is not appropriate to have intense sports."

Xuan Muqing nodded, and called the servants to follow the doctor to grab the medicine.

In another wing of the mansion.

"What? An Liuyan isn't dead?" Bai Yu said bitterly, "It's really hard."

"The child is still there. The doctor just said that he has symptoms of tire slippage and his body is weak. He will be fine after a few days of rest." Bai Yu's personal maid said.

Bai Yu's eyes were ruthless, "It's really a waste of an excellent opportunity, it won't be so easy to make a move in the future."

"Master, what shall we do next?"

"Wait and see what happens. It is necessary to get rid of Concubine Ning, but I can't do it." Bai Yu was thinking about the future strategy.

"what do you mean?"

Bai Yu patted the maid Xiaoqing on the shoulder, "That's right, I can't make any moves now, so I have to stay out of the way and take advantage of Li Xiaodie."
