Chu Jue, disguised as a bearded man, was brought in by the guards.
He glanced around everyone anxiously and asked with concern, "Where are my cousin and the prince?"
"I wonder if you are...?" Xie Pingbei asked cautiously.
Chu Jue ripped off his beard and looked at Xie Pingbei and said:
"I am Chu Jue. My father asked me to tell you something. Your Majesty already knows the secrets of your Xie family!"
As soon as this statement came out.
The expressions of Xie Pingbei and the old concubine changed instantly.
Their secret...Xie Lingxi's life experience?
The rest of the Xie family looked confused, not sure what happened.
"Now the emperor has asked my father and the prince to arrest you, and ordered you to be killed without mercy. You run away! Where are the prince and my cousin?" Chu Jue asked with concern.
Xie Ruojiao had not yet come to her senses and said in confusion, "My brother and sister-in-law are not in the capital, so who is your cousin?"
"That's your sister-in-law. Okay, they're not in the capital, so I'll be relieved!" Chu Jue breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at the Xie family and said, "You guys run away quickly. I've arranged a passage, but there are too many people. It's too eye-catching and easy to be discovered. I can take a few people with me. Please discuss who will run with me?"
"Thank you Captain Chu! It's a great kindness and kindness. The Xie family will keep it in our hearts." Xie Pingbei thanked him sincerely.
Although Xie's army is elite, it is almost impossible to fight out when surrounded by the emperor's heavy troops.
Mingxinsi secretly helped and arranged a way out for them.
"Why are you so polite? My cousin is your daughter-in-law, and we are all members of the same family." Chu Jue patted his chest.
Xie Pingbei had known that this day might come.
He brought Xie Lingxi back. He never wanted him to fight for that position, he just wanted him to be free for the rest of his life.
However, if the emperor learns of his existence, he will definitely not be able to tolerate him and the Xie family.
This is his choice, and he has no shame in being loyal to righteousness.
But the rest of the Xie family...
do not know anything.
They are innocent.
He wanted to send the kids out.
"Mother, my son is unfilial -" Xie Pingbei knelt down to the old concubine and kowtowed heavily: "My son can no longer fulfill his filial piety under your knees. Please take the children away."
The old concubine had tears in her eyes, "What nonsense are you talking about? I am over seventy years old, but you are still young. In the future... the imperial court will still use you, and the Northland will still use you. You can't die here. You can take the children away. , I am here to guard the Xie family, I want to go to the emperor in person and ask him if he killed your father and Prince Zhaoren back then!"
She is already old, but now she stands out with a cane, but she looks like a towering tree.
Just like standing up when the Xie Jiajun was destroyed in the previous life.
The old concubine always stood up when the Xie family collapsed.
"There are successors to the Xie family, and I no longer need to worry about the Northern Territory. In these years, for Daxia, for Northern Xinjiang, and for the Xie family, my son has endured long enough. I also ask my mother's permission for my son to stay and fight! "Xie Pingbei's eyes were red and he kowtowed heavily.
Nineteen years ago, Northern Xinjiang was defeated.
One hundred thousand Xie's army was destroyed, and his father died in battle.
Today's Xie Jiajun was rebuilt bit by bit by him.
As the head coach of the Xie Jiajun and as a son of man, he has never forgotten this blood debt. It was just for the stability of Daxia and for the sake of Northern Xinjiang that they had compromised too much.
Now the emperor is killing them all, and all the old debts from the past should be settled today!
Even if you die here.
"Since you refuse to leave, then we two will stay and settle accounts with the emperor together!" Seeing that he was determined, the old concubine did not force it.
She knew she couldn't persuade her son.
Xie Pingbei couldn't persuade the concubine either.
Then they will go to the emperor together to ask for an explanation!
Xie Pingbei stood up, looked at Xie Yuanwen and said, "Yuanwen, you are the eldest son. I will leave the younger brothers and sisters to you. After leaving the city, go find Ling Xi. Don't worry, he can protect you."
Xie Yuanwen has not yet recovered from these things. He did not understand a word of what his grandmother and father said.
I just vaguely understand an important point!
It seems that their family has a grudge against the emperor? Now the emperor is killing them all?
What's the use of looking for Xie Lingxi?
The whole world is not the land of the king. Wherever they can escape, they will be caught sooner or later.
At this moment, he resented his ancestors very much.
What on earth did he do to offend the emperor, and to implicate a junior like him?
It was unlucky for him to be born into the Xie family.
"No! Dad, I won't leave, I won't leave you and grandma! Let's go together." Xie Ruojiao didn't understand what was going on, but she didn't want to be separated from them, so she held on to the old concubine's arm.
The old concubine burst into tears and rubbed Xie Ruojiao's head, "Be obedient and go find your second brother."
When Xie Pingbei saw this scene, he felt even more uncomfortable. He looked at Chu Jue and said:
"Captain Chu, thank you for your work!"
Chu Jue was shocked. He seemed to have heard some huge secret, so he turned back to his father to ask.
The most important thing at this time is to give away the Xie family bloodline first.
"It's okay, leave it to me!" After saying that, Chu Jue hugged the little Xie Ling'an in his arms, then looked at Xie Ruojiao and others and said:
"Come with me!"
Concubine Li was uneasy, "Your Majesty, can Ruo'e come with you?"
She didn't know if her daughter was among the evacuees they planned.
"Of course, you and Ruo'e go together!" Xie Pingbei said.
Concubine Li's eyes instantly moistened, "Your Majesty, you..."
"Don't worry about me, you can leave quickly." Xie Pingbei said.
……
Outside Hokuofu.
Murong Shicheng announced loudly: "The Xie family plotted to murder the emperor, and the following are guilty of the most heinous crime. In accordance with His Majesty's decree, the Xie family rebels are captured. If there is resistance, they will be killed without mercy!"
"promise!"
The Jingwei took the order, and countless bows and crossbows flew towards the North Palace.
They even moved several cannons and bombed the Xie family.
Xie Pingbei led his troops out of the palace and started fighting with the Jingwei with a few soldiers.
And the backyard of Beiwang Mansion.
Chu Jue, who put on his big beard again, quietly escaped with the Xie family and others.
Chu Shouchen deliberately left an opening, with Xie Pingbei in front to attract attention, and Mingxinsi in the back covering...
Chu Jue and his people escaped from the palace smoothly.
But not far away, the prince's men discovered him and chased him all the way.
……
Chu Jue took Xie's family and ran around in the alleys of the capital.
Xie Ruojiao was afraid that crying would attract the enemy's attention, so she could only cry silently. While running, he looked back in the direction of Xie's house.
"Shh! Don't make any sound. There is someone in front of you, hide here!" Chu Jue was about to lead them through an alley.
But once he climbed up the wall, he found that there were also pursuers on the other side.
Attack from front and back.
We could only find an empty room for everyone to hide in for the time being.
But the footsteps are getting closer...
At the critical moment, Xie Yuanwen suddenly picked up the dagger he carried with him and placed it on the neck of Concubine Li next to him.
Chu Jue's expression suddenly changed and he lowered his voice, "What are you doing!"
"It's only a matter of time before they find this place. Someone needs to distract the pursuers..." Xie Yuanwen stared fiercely at Xie Ruo'e next to Concubine Li:
"Go out and lure away the pursuers!"
