For the people of Tianshui Earl's residence, the sky had fallen.
Tianshui City had fallen and they could not go back. Going back would mean death.
The Earl's residence in Royal City was about to be taken back and the king had issued an edict that they must leave Royal City before tomorrow.
In this way, the Suo clan had nothing but a title and an empty position as the Lord of Tianshui City.
The world was so big, there was no place for the Suo clan to stay.
At this time, the people in the Earl's residence had packed their luggage and everything was ready. There were hundreds of horses and dozens of carriages.
Originally, they would set off for Tianshui City at dawn.
But now, there seemed to be no place in the world for them.
Suo Ningbing stood there for more than half an hour, motionless, as if she had lost all ability to respond.
She did not expect that happiness would be so short, only a few days of joy.
Now, the nightmare had come again and was even more thorough.
But very quickly, she calmed herself down. How bad could the situation be?
Compared to the night when her father left, compared to the night when she knew that Søren had died, tonight's bad news was nothing.
She was the oldest in the family and the elder sister. She had to calm down.
As long as Søren was alive, as long as she was alive, the Suo clan would not collapse.
"Where is Lonnie?" Suo Ningbing asked.
"Young Master has gone out." Ye Jingyu said, "To find Duke Yanting and ask him to help protect our family in Royal City."
Following that, Ye JingYu said, "The clan's warrior leaders have something important to tell you."
Suo Ningbing nodded and said, "Let them in."
"Yes." Ye Jingyu said.
A quarter of an hour later, the five family warriors all came to the meeting hall.
"Now the Suo clan is facing a fatal crisis again. A little carelessness and we will be completely crushed." The family warrior leader Suo Mu said, "We have to decide quickly what to do next."
After dawn, the Internal Affairs Department would come to take back the Earl's residence. They had to leave Royal City. Where should they go? The world was so big, was there a place for them?
Now that Tianshui City had fallen, where should they go? It was time to make a decision.
Suo Ningbing said, "Then tell me, where should we go?"
"Go find Lord Suo Han Yi." The family warrior leader Suo Mu said, "The battle report said that Lord Suo HanYi was seriously injured, that's why Tian Shui City fell. Otherwise, with Lord Suo HanYi's military skills, he wouldn't have lost."
"That's right!" Everyone present nodded.
Previously, when the thirty thousand rebels attacked the city, they were defeated by Suo Hanyi in just one day. If it weren't for the despicable enemy, if it weren't for Suo Hanyi's severe injuries, Tianshui City wouldn't have been lost.
Suo Mu said: "Now there is good news, at least Lord Suo Han Yi is still alive. The city guards have already escaped with him. We should meet up with Lord Soshanyi. After Suo Hanyi recovers, we can take back Tianshui City. "
"That's right." Another clan's warrior leader said, "After Young Master comes to his senses and joins forces with Lord Suo Hanyi, we will definitely be able to take back Tian Shui City."
Suo Ningbing said, "Those who agree to look for Big Brother, raise your hands."
Immediately, the five clan's warrior leaders all raised their hands.
Suo Ningbing said, "That's good, I will tell your opinions to Søren later, and then listen to his final decision."
Ye Jingyu said, "If we are going to meet up with Lord Suo Han Yi, the servants and maids in the house can't be brought along. Other than weapons and dry rations, nothing else can be brought. "
Suo Ningbing said, "Take out all the remaining gold coins and distribute them to the maids and servants. Let them find a place to settle in Royal City. When Søren and Big Brother recapture Tianshui City, immediately bring them over. "
Half an hour later.
The servants and maids in the Earl's residence gathered in the courtyard of the Earl's residence with tears in their eyes.
Because the journey was too dangerous, they didn't know martial arts and couldn't protect themselves, so they had to stay in Royal City.
Although they had gold coins in their hands that they couldn't earn in their lifetime, their hearts were empty. They had been in the Suo family since they were very young and had completely regarded this place as their home.
Moreover, they had the best master. Although Søren was a womanizer and had flirted with every beautiful maid, he was very good to the servants.
Now, they had no home. Even if they had money, they would become lonely ghosts.
"What are you crying for? Don't cry. " The steward said loudly, "Boys and girls who took the money, don't spend it carelessly. We will find a house, everyone will still live together, and help Master gather information in Royal City. Master will definitely recapture Tianshui City, and then we can go home again. "
"Yes, yes, Master and Lord Suo Han Yi will definitely recapture Tianshui City, we will definitely be able to go home." The servants shouted loudly, encouraging their hearts.
Suo Ningbing said, "If you stay in Royal City, Søren will let Duke Yanting protect you. You won't be bullied. When Søren and Big Brother recapture Tianshui City, I will immediately send someone to bring you home. "
"Yes …" All the servants and maids answered while crying.
"Miss, please take care of yourself. Tell Young Master Søren to take care too!"
"Don't ever forget, we have always been waiting for Master's call in Royal City. If you don't want us, we will completely become lonely ghosts …"
Suddenly, Suo Ningbing couldn't hold back her tears anymore, and tears gushed out.
Holding back her tears, Suo Ningbing said, "Are all the family warriors ready?"
Ye Jingyu said, "One hundred family warriors, with enough bows and arrows, one man on two horses, sharp swords, ready to set off at any time."
Suo Ningbing said, "Good, every warrior must hold the reins. When Søren returns, we will immediately leave Royal City and meet up with Big Brother Suo Han Yi."
"Yes." Ye Jingyu said, "All warriors, hold the sword in your left hand and the reins in your right hand. When Master returns, immediately mount the horse and meet up with Lord Suo Han Yi."
"Yes." All the family warriors shouted in unison.
… …
Half an hour later, Søren, dressed in a military uniform, walked into the Count's mansion and saw the servants in the courtyard with tears in their eyes.
Just now, he went to Duke Fang Ting's mansion to ask him to protect these servants.
"I have found a place for you to stay, and there is also a shop for you to run." Søren said, "Duke Fang Ting has promised to protect you, so no one will bully you. Wait in Royal City, when I take back Tianshui City, I will immediately take you home."
"Yes." The butler and all the servants said.
"Let's go, this eunuch will take you to your new residence." Søren said.
The eunuch said, "Everyone, follow me. You are lucky to have such a Bodhisattva Master."
Then, the eunuch beside Fang Ting bowed to Søren, "Lord Søren, this servant wishes you to take back Tianshui City as soon as possible."
"Thank you." Søren said.
Under the butler's lead, dozens of servants and maids knelt and kowtowed three times.
"Go, don't cry." The butler shouted loudly, "Remember, Master will take back Tianshui City, we will be able to go home."
Then, under the butler's lead, dozens of servants and maids, carrying parcels and gold coins, followed Duke Fang Ting out of the Count's mansion, leaving their Master behind.
Ye Jingyu brought a snow-white horse for Søren. Søren mounted the horse and looked at the one hundred fully armed family warriors behind him.
Suo Ningbing also wore a tight-fitting outfit, came to Søren and said: "Little Brother, the family warriors think we should rendezvous with Big Brother, what do you think?"
Søren said: "Who said we should go find Suo Hanyi? Follow me, don't ask where we are going. "
As soon as these words came out, all the family warriors present couldn't help but be surprised.
Søren shouted again: "Follow me, don't ask where we are going."
"Yes." The family warriors answered in unison.
Looking back at the Count's mansion one last time, Søren shook the reins and rode out, saying: "Go, out of the city!"
Then, one hundred warriors and two hundred warhorses pounded the streets of Royal City, tearing through the darkness and dawn of Royal City, galloping at lightning speed.
On both sides of the street, many windows were opened, revealing the eyes behind. Full of sorrow and pity, they watched the backs of Søren and the others go far away.
In their view, once Søren left, he would never be able to return to Royal City alive, let alone Tianshui City.
"The Suo clan will perish today!" The nobles mourned the death of a rabbit, secretly saying in their hearts.
… …
Søren led more than one hundred family warriors out of Royal City from the east gate.
Suddenly, someone blocked the way in front, it was the great eunuch Li Chenglian who served Zhi Li.
"My Master earnestly invites Lord Søren to come over for a chat." Li Chenglian said.
Søren did not dismount and followed Li Chenglian to the front of a carriage.
Zhi Li got off the carriage, looked at Søren and said: "Tianshui City has fallen, you are also free. How about staying and helping me? "
Søren did not answer, still did not dismount.
Zhi Li said: "The world is big, there is no place for you. Once you leave Royal City, what awaits you is a dead end. Stay and swear loyalty to me, that is the only way to live. "
Zhi Li's words were no longer a threat, he had already frankly told Søren that once he left Royal City, there would be killing intent everywhere.
"There is only hope if you are alive." Zhi Li said: "Tianshui City has already been lost, don't be so rigid. You are alive, your sister Suo Ningbing is alive, that is the most important. Once you go, not only will you die, but everyone around you will also die. I'm sorry, I have no choice, but you have a choice. "
Søren looked at Zhi Li, he had already heard everything from Zhi Li's words.
Outside of Royal City, there would be countless pursuits and countless assassinations within a hundred miles.
With the strength of him and the hundred clan warriors, there was no way to escape this endless slaughter. The only result was complete annihilation, the Suo clan's extinction.
According to Zhi Li, staying in Royal City and being loyal to him was the only way to survive. It seemed like it was also the only choice.
Søren said: "Your Highness Zhi Li, how about we make a bet between the two of us?"
"Speak." Zhi Li said.
Søren said: "Give me five months, if I can take back Tianshui City within five months, it will be considered my win. If I can't, it will be considered my loss. "
Zhi Li said: "So what if you lose? So what if I win? "
Søren said: "If I lose, I will completely give up all my obsessions and wholeheartedly assist you, no matter what enemy you face, even if the enemy is the ruler of the kingdom."
"You, you saw through it?" Zhi Li's eyes suddenly shrank.
Then, he closed his eyes, took a deep breath and said: "Fine, I'll give you five months. Within five months, if you can't take back Tianshui City, you will be mine. "
Then Zhi Li boarded the carriage: "Søren, within these five months, I won't send anyone to kill you, but I will do my best to stop you from taking back Tianshui City. However, I will do everything in my power to stop you from taking back Tianshui City. As for other people killing you, I don't care. You and I will go all out for this bet. "
With that, Zhi Li swaggered off.
In five months, Søren only had a mere hundred warriors around him, no territory, no army. To take back Tianshui City guarded by tens of thousands of rebels was as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
At least, it was more difficult than taking first place in the graduation exam. There was even no hope of success.
"Out of the city." With a shout, Soran led the warriors of the family and rushed out of King's City. They galloped towards the east, towards the unknown road.
… …
The journey was as fast as lightning, and in a moment, they were ten miles out of the city.
Suddenly, on the wide official road ahead, a group of snow-white steeds appeared.
On top of it, a woman was riding.
A beautiful woman who could seize the world's fortune, a beautiful woman who could condense the world's spiritual energy.
A woman so beautiful that even Zhi Ning and Suo Ningbing couldn't compare.
A peerless beauty that Søren had never seen before or after transmigrating.
She was wearing a snow-white gauze dress, holding a simple and unadorned sword in her hand, riding alone towards the Royal City of Fengdu.
Her face was as cold as jade, her eyes were as clear as water, and her temperament was tranquil and calm.
Her appearance seemed to make everything around her become the background.
The scene she was in instantly became a painting.
Her beauty seemed to condense the air around her.
Although Søren didn't know her, he immediately called out her name in his heart.
Princess Jung Yeon, the only flesh and blood of King Cui Bian, the most powerful descendant of the Dragon Shrine.
Such a noble lady was actually returning to the Royal City alone.
Seeing Søren's men, Princess Jung Yeon gently pulled the reins to the side of the road.
Søren led the hundred cavalrymen and quickly passed by her.
Their eyes also quickly met. At this moment, Søren seemed to feel that her eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky.
In the blink of an eye, Søren's men went all the way away. They disappeared in a trail of smoke and dust.
Princess Jung Yeon's side was spotless. She gently spurred the horse back to the road and continued to the Royal City.
Her sister Suo Ningbing approached Søren and asked in a low voice, "Little brother, where are we going?"
Søren said, "To Linhai City, to marry Gui Qinshao, and to ask my father-in-law, Lord Gui Xingfu, for the great favor from more than twenty years ago. We'll borrow troops, money, and land from him."
Suo Ningbing said, "This, this should be very difficult. There are many icing on the cake, but there are no people who can help in the hour of need. Even if Gui Xingfu owes us a great favor. "
Søren said, "If I say I want to borrow, he can't refuse. If I say I want to marry, she can't refuse. "
His words were full of absolute confidence.
Taking back Tianshui City in five months. This heaven-defying action would start from Linhai City, from his fiancée.
