The Taiping Congregation’s Final Song

"Kill,"

"kill."

"Brothers fought with them."

The Taiping Cult members shouted in unison;

"Peaceful world, rush forward."

"Peace in the world, peace in the world, kill those dog officials."

"Kill."

Both sides are trying their best to kill each other. At this time, more than half of the three hundred people from the Imperial City Division and the Forbidden Army have fallen to the ground, and the remaining people are injured. There are no formations or defensive circles at this time.

After a scuffle, a large number of the remaining people fell down in a short time.

At this critical moment, when the escorting team was about to be annihilated, reinforcements from the Imperial City Division's brigade and the Imperial Guard Battalion from afar had arrived. However, the Taiping Cult members did not escape, but surrounded them.

A large number of believers also gathered together and rushed forward to meet the reinforcements.

The Taiping Cult members fought like wild beasts, slashing at each other with their swords until one of them fell. However, even the fallen Taiping Cult members hugged each other's legs tightly and bit them fiercely with their teeth.

, buy time for people on your side.

The galloping reinforcements were caught off guard, and were beaten back steadily. They did not expect that the opponent would fight like this. They suffered heavy casualties for a while. The Forbidden Army was better off. After all, the regular army had received sufficient training. They formed formations on the spot and defended first.

, but the people from the Imperial City Division were not so lucky. They all swarmed up and fought together. Many people fell to the ground, and the expressions of several thousand households even changed. These were not ordinary refugees, they were comparable to the best soldiers in the army.

.

However, due to the huge disparity in numbers, the situation of the war gradually became clear, and everyone in the Taiping Sect gradually lost all their casualties, leaving only a dozen leaders of the cult still struggling to resist.

Ma Mengquan, the Qianhu of the Imperial City, knew that this incident must be thoroughly investigated and that he must be kept alive, so he shouted inside;

"Keep alive."

Before he finished speaking, more than a dozen refugee leaders shouted a few words when they saw that nothing could be done.

"Peace in the world, peace in the world. Long live the wise king!"

He directly raised the knife to his neck and killed himself.

The Imperial City Department and the Forbidden Army were both a little stunned. They were so staunch and wanted to say something, when they heard another reinforcement coming not far away. It was someone from the Military and Horse Department or someone else.

I saw He Yongxi, the commander of the Military and Horse Division, shouting;

"Quick, where is the thief? He dares to go to the capital to cause trouble. He is impatient to live."

But no one answered. Only the people from the Forbidden Army and the Imperial City Department looked at the people from the Military and Horse Department like clowns. He Yongxi touched his nose in embarrassment.

"Well, it's all over. Sorry for being late."

Imperial City Secretary Qianhu Ma Mengquan really couldn’t stand it anymore.

"Commander He, the Imperial City Division has taken over here. You'd better take people back to seal the gates of the capital. First, enforce the martial law and then strictly check the people coming in and out. The Imperial City Division will send people to each city gate together."

"Okay, you guys have been working hard. If anything happens, please inform me and I will seal the gate of the capital immediately."

When He Yongxi saw the corpses on the ground and so much bloody smell, his face turned pale and he felt deeply uncomfortable, so he followed the words and took people back to impose martial law.

The deputy lieutenant of the infantry of the Imperial Guard reinforcements said;

"The matter is over. I will take half of the people back and leave the rest to President Han Qian. The people from the Imperial City Department will be responsible for the following matters. Dai Xiang sent someone to explain that they must keep alive and continue to send money. There are no survivors.

Okay, let’s continue with the rest.”

"Yes, general, I will lead people to blockade this place. Ma Qianhu will continue to lead people to the Hou Mansion and handle the matter when he comes back."

"Okay, then you go ahead, I'm going back to the palace gate too."

"Thank you sir."

"I'm not working hard. I'll be busy next. The imperial army will obey the order and leave the first, second and third lieutenants to listen to President Han Qian's leadership. The others will return to the camp."

After saying that, he led the imperial army back to the camp, while Ma Qianhu arranged for people to continue on the road. Just as he was about to set off, he thought that the prince who was walking at the front didn't know what was going on, and he quickly took Ji Yunhui from the hundred households to check.

, the sedan was completely quiet, the two looked at each other, thinking it was over.

When they opened the curtain, they found Manager Wang huddled under the sedan, unharmed, and the two of them breathed a sigh of relief;

"Your Majesty, are you okay? Are you okay?"

Manager Wang also asked tremblingly;

"What's going on outside, where are the thieves?"

"Back to father-in-law, everyone has bowed their heads. Now we have to continue setting off."

"Everything is fine with the Za family, so let's go quickly,"

Manager Wang, who wanted to go take a look, saw the miserable state of the two of them, with half of their bodies covered in blood, and the fishy smell coming to their faces. He almost vomited, and wanted to leave the place of right and wrong quickly.

"yes."

The two simply packed up and the convoy continued to move forward, but the cars, boxes, and the tragic injuries of everyone showed that this journey was full of dangers.

Of course, the escort team was much larger. The injured were bandaged on the spot, while the uninjured people from the Imperial City Division continued to escort.

When Manager Wang saw the gate of the Hou Mansion, he was so excited that he almost cried.

Finally arrived.

The gate of Luoyunhou Mansion was still closed normally, with only one side door open. The street was also quiet. The concierge saw the convoy through the small yellow door, and knew that someone from the Ministry of Internal Affairs was coming, so he ran over to greet it excitedly.

, when he arrived and saw the miserable state of the escort, he was surprised and asked;

"Eunuch Wang, are you okay? What's going on?"

"You don't know?"

"Know what?"

Xiao Huangmen was confused. Seeing him like this, Manager Wang was not in the mood to explain.

"Open the door and let the motorcade in. Business is more important."

"It's father-in-law."

Xiaohuangmen ran back and directed everyone to open the front door, but asked why the Hou Mansion didn't know what happened. It turned out that everyone who escaped had gone to Ningrong Street, which was the closest. The Hou Mansion was a little further away, so no one came there.

If you know the reason, of course the whole city will know it tomorrow.

After opening the main door, the motorcade slowly entered. The prince walked towards the backyard with the contract. Si Qianhu of the Imperial City followed with a few people. Although it was unsightly to be covered in blood, it had already reached this point.

No matter how high the cost, we must complete the tasks assigned by the internal affairs.

Yang Hanyu also brought many palace ladies to drink tea and eat cakes in the inner courtyard. When he had nothing to do, he even arranged for the palace ladies to rehearse the palace dance. Thinking that there were so many people with nothing to do, he might as well do this and spend some extravagant time with Zhang Jinyu in the future.

Well, I was just thinking about how to add some more moves.

Then I heard Huo'er running over from outside in a hurry and saying;

"It's not good, it's not good, madam,"

"What's wrong? Am I not okay?"

"I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about the team escorting the money outside. It's miserable. There's a lot of blood."

After Huo'er finished speaking, he patted his small chest in fear. Yang Hanyu didn't care. What could happen in the capital in broad daylight? Could it be that he was robbed in the city? How could it be possible?

"How handsome are you? What could happen to you? Could it be possible that you were robbed in the city?"

Huo'er looked at him with admiration, and heard something coming from outside the yard;

"Mrs. Yang is really good at predicting things. This is really tragic. In order to give you some money, so many brothers died. It's so tragic."

The sound came from the courtyard gate, and the prince came over with a mournful face, followed by the people from the Imperial City Division who had just escaped from death. The blood had not yet solidified, and the mark there was very oozing. Yang Hanyu was shocked when he saw this scene.

The sweet-scented osmanthus cake in my mouth spit out directly. This is really a pot that cannot be opened.

"Eunuch Wang, what's wrong with you? You couldn't have been robbed! It's so scary!"

"Hey, this time we didn't encounter some petty thieves. They were probably people from the Taiping Religion. They directly attacked the convoy and caused heavy casualties. You can see that even Ma Qianhu was injured."

"Small injury, nothing to worry about."

Ma Qianhu grinned in pain and mumbled something.

"Why are you still standing there? Bring water and medicine to bandage Qianhu and the brothers from the Imperial City Division. Hurry up."

"Yes, ma'am."

"Thank you, madam!"

"It's okay. So is this deal broken by Manager Wang?"

"Mrs. Yang, don't worry, everything remains as usual. This is a contract. The money is all there, not a tael is missing. 100 boxes of silver, 10,000 taels per box."

"Well, how do you deal with father-in-law? How do you calculate my dowry? And as I promised before, I have to pay the debt directly, otherwise I will come back. It's hard for the Marquis to explain!"

"It's easy to say, I have brought all your loan documents. I will send the silver first. This is for you. Then you will buy the property of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for a total of 1.4 million taels, most of which will be counted as your dowry. The Za family

Just take away 80,000 taels of silver from two shops, take all the remaining silver and repay it, and then write a repayment document. I have the seal of the Ministry of Internal Affairs with me."

Yang Hanyu was a little worried about the interest just now, so when he heard that he could pay back the money in advance, he nodded in agreement.

And how could such a rare thing as robbery of silver happen? It feels better to hear this. Besides, the Taiping Sect is not from the south of Dawu, so why did it come to the capital.

That's not right! Isn't the capital the territory of the White Lotus Sect? How come it was infiltrated by people from the Taiping Sect? This White Lotus Sect has a false reputation.
