Text Chapter 142: Enemies Strive for the First Move

"What did you say?"

Before Xiu Lue could understand the meaning of the slave's words, Xiu Yin's expression changed drastically. He walked a few steps quickly and arrived in front of the slave like a gust of wind. He asked anxiously: "Speak clearly! "

While speaking, one of his hands subconsciously grabbed the slave's shoulder, causing the latter to scream in pain. Only then did the mimic come back to his senses and let go of his hand. ?

And the house slave was holding his breath while running so fast. After handing over those words, he didn't even have time to take a breath, and was grabbed by Miyin's shoulders. With a strong force, the breath in his chest was suppressed. He fell down, and at this moment the internal and external breaths conflicted. He rolled his eyes, raised his head, and fainted to the ground!

This result made the father and son of the Xiu family very anxious. By this time, the Xiu Lue had already understood the meaning of the servant's eager words, and showed expressions of surprise and disbelief.

"It's getting more and more anxious!" Miyin looked at the house slave who fell to the ground, sorted out his thoughts, took a deep breath, and calmed down, but the news contained in those words was still devouring his soul. Let his mood fluctuate rapidly.

However, this also made him calmer. After all, he was a general who had been on the battlefield. Although he was older, the skills he had honed over the years were still there, and it showed at this time. At least he could still show calmness on the surface.

Immediately afterwards, Miyin squatted down, used his strength in his hands, and quickly tapped the slave's body and chest. The latter immediately groaned and opened his eyes again, but his eyes revealed confusion and memories. color.

At this time, Miyin turned to look at his younger son who was sweating profusely, and whispered: "The more it is at this time, the more important it is to stay calm, not to be impatient, and to understand things clearly first."

After this point, Xiang Luo's chaotic thoughts calmed down a little, and he nodded in agreement. Then I heard footsteps coming from not far away, but several nursing staff and domestic slaves rushed over.

In this way, the first domestic slave to report the news, together with the nursing home and domestic slaves who came later, explained the matter to the father and son of the family at the same time.

It turns out that there are three second-generation men in this Hui family. In addition to the youngest son Hui Lue, this Hui Yin also has two sons and one daughter. The lord of Luoyu City, Hui Ya, is one of them. In addition, these and that The eldest son who is already married has even started a family and started a business. Two grandsons were added to Xieyin, but because they were the city lords, they were not around.

"You mean... they are all dead?" But now, listening to the words of the house slaves and guardians who came in a hurry, the two sons and two grandsons were actually killed. , it was inevitable that his mind would be shaken, and his plan was even worse. There were already signs of losing control, and he was shouting at thousands of slaves who wanted to catch him and complained - although he was on his way back to the royal capital. He has shown a firm will and extraordinary self-control, but after all, he has inner rebelliousness. Once it involves his family and relatives, he cannot control his emotions.

"Quiet!" Miyin forced himself to calm down. He forcibly stopped the plan that was almost out of control, and then asked in a deep voice.

However, those house slaves didn't know much. They heard about it from their own circles - wherever there are people, there are circles. There is also a class among domestic slaves. These slaves can walk in the royal capital and handle the affairs of the master's family. To a certain extent, it is more influential than many free people in cities and fields.

Slaves also have friendships with each other, and the masters of some slaves are more powerful. Therefore, in many cases, news that is not convenient to spread through formal channels will be passed through the mouths of slaves. Otherwise, without the acquiescence of the master, Even a slave would not dare to reveal the secret easily——

Of course, this approach also makes it easier to get rid of responsibility at critical moments. After all, in the eyes of those powerful people, looking at a slave is not much different from slaughtering cattle and sheep.

At present, Miyin learned the general situation of the matter from his slave, but he did not know the more details.

The story of this incident is actually quite unexpected. It is said that a tribe in the north that had recently taken refuge was unbearable due to the oppression of Prince Da Yu. They raised a rebel flag, imprisoned the prince, and even sent troops to invade Da Yu. Within the realm of meteorism.

However, such northern barbarians knew after all that they were no match for the regular army of the Meteor, so they were not willing to fight, let alone have a head-on conflict with the army of the Meteor. Instead, they divided into several groups and ran around the territory of the Meteor, burning, killing, looting, and killing along the way. War feeds war, causing a lot of casualties.

Moreover, there are some people in these wandering teams who are quite tactically savvy. They often pretend to be other tribes, or simply pretend to be refugees or slaves from the Great Meteor, break open the city gate, and immediately swarm in and kill. , the city was caught off guard, and several cities were looted by them.

However, after killing all the armed forces in the city, these barbarians did not occupy the city. Instead, they plundered most of the material population and then continued to flee.

Part of the plundered population was sent back to the wild lands in the north, while the other part was used by the barbarians as shields and hostages to delay the attack of the Meteor Army and undermine their fighting spirit.

Unfortunately, the two cities led by the two sons of Miyin happened to be on the way of the wandering barbarians, and one was deceived by the barbarians' disguise, lost the initiative, and was massacred in the city, and the other fell into the rain city. , was threatened by the barbarians at the cost of the lives of the people in the city for no reason, so that the city lord Xiu Ya restrained his hands and finally suffered another sneak attack.

In this case, the end can be imagined.

After understanding what happened, the look in Miyin's eyes became much darker, and his strong body actually swayed on the spot.

Xiang Lue immediately burst out shouting: "Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! When I left, the second brother's city had strong soldiers and horses, and there were groups of warriors. Even if the Yanbian barbarians attacked with their entire tribe, relying on their primitive weapons , With a backward command, it is impossible to defeat the second brother and the others, even if they have hostages in hand, they have no chance! "

When several slaves saw the young master's appearance, they didn't dare to persist. They could only say tactfully: "This... the specific situation, the slaves really don't know."

"Since there is no official news about this matter from the royal court, it means that it cannot be confirmed. Don't believe it easily if you hear it from hearsay." Here, Miyin tried to comfort him. He knew it, and it was revealed from the slave. His words are certainly not groundless, let alone such a thing, but as the head of a family, he still has to stabilize the family. Of course, he cannot show a panicked look, but he suddenly seems to be much older, so this statement does not seem to mean much. Persuasiveness.

"But..." Xiuluo was obviously doubtful.

Miyin's eyes widened: "Control the sadness on your face. Can you still be considered a man like Da Yun? Besides, with a face like yours, how can you make your present and sister feel at ease?"

Hearing this, Xianluo woke up suddenly, suppressed the emotions in his heart, nodded heavily and said: "Father, I understand."

Miyin nodded and said, "This is just a show. You are sitting at home, and my father has some things to ask about." After saying that, he left without asking too much.

Yuluo looked at his father's back and knew in his heart that the other party wanted to confirm the authenticity of the news. This was what he was worried about now. However, he still had to force a smile when faced with the smiles of his mother and sister - these two were still worried about I am happy to return home.

Soon, as the gloomy-looking Miyin returned home, Yulue's heart sank.

Xiu Yin didn't say much, just letting him stay at home with his mother and sister, but he became more and more silent, and ten days later, he suddenly fell ill, and the atmosphere at home was distant and solemn.

In this way, even Xiu Lue's mother and sister could not help but discover some clues. However, when asked, whether it was Xiu Yin or Xiu Lue, they never mentioned it, for fear of worrying the two of them.

Time passed slowly. In this heavy atmosphere, a month passed quietly. After inquiring in many ways, Xiu Yin and Xiu Lue finally confirmed the previous news and gave up the last bit of illusion. Next, they have to consider, That's how to explain it clearly to the current situation and my sister.

In fact, Xianglue's mother and sister have already noticed the changes in the atmosphere at home these days. After all, his sister is not married to an ordinary family, and she can also get some information.

It was no longer possible to hide it, but before that, Yuan Lue decided to adjust his mentality first - after discussing with his father, it was finally decided that Yuan Lue would do the talking, but Yuan Lue was about to follow tradition and join a team. It is undoubtedly unacceptable for him to let his parents know that the other two children are dead at this time. How to organize his rhetoric is a problem.

"If nothing else, this tells me about the death of my two brothers, and I have to find a way to convince my mother to prevent my joining the army from being affected."

As soon as they left, Xiang Lue followed a few friends and rode out of the city to hunt in a forest outside the city. This is also a popular entertainment method for people of their class, used to distract and divert attention. The power was very suitable, but during the whole process, worrying things lingered, making it difficult for him to concentrate.

Several of his friends also knew what happened to him. There were even deaths in their own families, so they could understand his feelings.

However, in the middle of hunting, a group of people were suddenly startled by a slight vibration on the ground. Most of them were from martial arts families. Just from the vibration of the soil, they knew that it was caused by the rapid passing of the army and war horses. Around the royal capital, where are the war horses running so uncontrollably!

With worries in their hearts, Xianlue and others could still stay there, so they all headed towards the royal capital in a hurry. However, before they could proceed, they heard a burst of chaotic shouting, and saw a man brandishing a sword at the city gate. The barbarians who were hacked and killed!

Seeing these figures, Xianlue immediately became furious, but his heart was full of doubts and shock!

"What's going on? Why did this barbarian appear in the royal capital?" (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
