Chapter 178 "Lu Mingchao is a traitor?!"
Chapter 178 "Lu Mingchao is a traitor?!"
The two returned to the bedroom and chatted for a few words before Shen Changle, who was extremely sleepy, fell into a deep sleep.
Jiang Ci'an hugged her, the joy of reunion made him almost unable to sleep all night.
It was because of this that he was the first to notice the abnormality outside.
Seeing that Shen Changle was sleeping soundly, he got out of bed quietly without waking her up.
When he went out, he found out that it was Mo Qingfeng who had been lurking beside Lu Mingchao!
He climbed over the wall and entered, but was stopped by Baizhi and Xuanque.
Jiang Ci'an hurried over to help him out.
"Brother Mo, why are you coming to the county government office at this time?"
Mo Qingfeng was so anxious that he couldn't even finish his words. When he saw Jiang Ci'an, his legs went weak and he almost fell to his knees.
"Quick! Go back to the Firearms Camp! Lu Mingchao... Lu Mingchao let Liang Yi go!"
"What? Lu Mingchao is a traitor?!"
"Yeah! Go back!"
"boom--"
Before he could finish his words, a loud noise that shook the heavens and the earth was heard, and at the same time, it was as bright as day outside the city!
The two of them looked in the direction of the firelight, their hearts sinking.
"It's from the direction of the Firearms Battalion... That son of a bitch blew up the Firearms Battalion!"
Mo Qingfeng was so anxious that he jumped up and down.
"What should we do? Without the Firearms Battalion, Qi will surely be defeated!"
Jiang Ci'an clenched his fists, listened to the chaotic screams around him, and forced himself to calm down.
Capture Mo Qingfeng and hand Shen Changle over to him.
"Brother Mo, Changle is pregnant and has difficulty moving. Please... escort her to a safe place!"
At the same time, Shen Tingyu and Shen Changle also came out after hearing the noise.
"Is Yue's army coming to attack the city?"
Jiang Ci'an shook his head and looked at Shen Changle reluctantly and embarrassedly.
He took her into his arms, as she was wearing a cloak and looked a little panicked.
I hugged her tightly and told her the truth:
"Lu Mingchao rebelled. He let Liang Yi go and blew up the Firearms Battalion..."
"what?"
"Lu Mingchao! How dare he!"
Shen Tingyu growled in disbelief.
Jiang Ci'an no longer cared what he thought. He let go of Shen Changle and entrusted Shen Changle to Mo Qingfeng.
"Brother Mo, the sooner the better. Escort Changle away. Don't go towards the capital."
He looked at the stunned Shen Tingyu again and said:
"Uncle Emperor... you must return to the capital immediately and divide your troops into three groups. Deliver the news of Lu Mingchao's treason to the capital as quickly as possible and cut off his escape route."
"Well, I'll go now."
Shen Tingyu glanced at Shen Changle worriedly, then kowtowed to Mo Qingfeng.
Mo Qingfeng was startled and hurried over to support him.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, this is unacceptable! I, this commoner, cannot bear this..."
"No, Changle is pregnant and can't travel too much. I can only ask you to protect her and the baby in her belly!"
Mo Qingfeng held his elbows with both hands, took a step back, and knelt down to salute.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. As long as I'm alive, the princess will be safe."
"Thank you."
Shen Tingyu patted Changle's shoulder reluctantly, turned around and left quickly.
Jiang Ci'an's Adam's apple rolled and he swallowed.
He held Shen Changle's arm and pushed her towards Mo Qingfeng.
"Let's go, Changle."
"Ci'an, what about you?"
Jiang Ci'an forced a smile and smoothed her long hair.
"The Firearm Battalion was attacked. I have to go count the Lu family army and go to rescue them."
"But, you already said, their last name is Lu!"
"But they are from Qi! I don't believe it. The Lu family army has over 10,000 people, and they all have the surname Lu!"
Shen Changle was so nervous that tears kept welling up in her eyes.
The day she had been worrying about for so long finally came!
She understood that Jiang Ci'an was Qi's only hope now, and she couldn't stop him...
I can only uneasily remind again and again:
"You must not forget what you promised me. You must accompany my son to grow up! You can't leave me alone!"
Jiang Ci'an lowered his eyes. This time, he was afraid that he was really...
"it is good!"
But he still agreed!
Even if I become a ghost, I will come back to protect her!
"Let's go, Princess...let's go!"
Mo Qingfeng supported her and walked out the door with several maids behind him, looking back every few steps.
Shen Changle left very reluctantly, his mind in a mess.
what to do……
How can I help him?
Lu Mingchao blew up the firearms camp and took the military deployment to join Yue Guo...
How can we achieve a surprise victory and defeat Yue Jun...
correct!
Shen Changle stopped and turned around to call him:
"Cease!"
Jiang Ci'an saw her coming quickly and hurried to meet her.
"Changle...slow down!"
"Here, this is for you!"
She took out the princess's jade token from her arms.
"Princess Jade Order, seeing this order is like seeing the princess herself! The emperor's uncle told me before that many of the Lu family army's people were deployed by him!
You should be able to mobilize them to your advantage with this order! In addition..."
She was so anxious that her heart was beating faster and her hands were shaking as she pressed on her chest.
Jiang Ci'an felt distressed and kept stroking her arm.
"Don't worry, take your time..."
Shen Changle took a deep breath and tried to calm down.
The shouting and fleeing sounds around were so frightening.
She couldn't help but think of the time when her country was destroyed in her previous life...
She hugged Jiang Ci'an's hand that was comforting her, turned around and pointed to the corner of the backyard, where there were two thunder bombs covered with black cloth.
"Well, I already taught Jiu Xing on the way here, so he knows how to use it...
However, this thing is too heavy and difficult to move, which makes it good for defense but not for attack! You can, you can evacuate the people... and try to lure the enemy into the city!
But, Jiuxing and the others are still in the Firearms Camp, will Jiuxing..."
Seeing that she was in such a bad state, Jiang Ci'an held her in his arms and patted her back to calm her panic.
"It's okay, don't worry, Changle!
Lao Jiu has been with me the longest, and he has always been smart, and Zhao Dasheng is also by his side!
They know that if they can't hold on, they can just retreat and nothing will happen."
Only then did Shen Changle nod.
She bit his shoulder and cried again.
"Ci'an, you must... be safe and sound..."
"Well, don't worry, I will... survive."
Hearing the sound of gunfire getting closer, Mo Qingfeng couldn't help but come over to urge them.
"Let's go, Princess! If we don't leave now, it might be too late... With you here, Ci'an won't be able to defeat the enemy with peace of mind!"
Only then did Shen Changle let go of his shoulders.
Supported by Bai Zhi, she retreated away from him with tears in her eyes...
