Chapter 11

When the women all took up their weapons and stood on the city wall to fight, Chen Jin took the initiative to speak for the first time, "Transfer all the old people, children and seriously injured soldiers to the general's mansion.

Chen Jin already knew that there was no Yongning Bo Mansion in the border town, and Chu Xiuyuan, who had not recovered from serious injury, was also supported by someone and appeared in the conference hall.

The battle reports were sent to the capital one by one, but no soldiers were sent to rescue them. Even Chen Jin's letter was as if he had forgotten her daughter.

Almost all the general's mansions were emptied. Like all the houses in the border town, all the useful things were moved out. Even some furniture was split and burned into fire. No one cared about the red sandalwood and chicken womb wood at this time. He boiled hot water with all the wood and poured onto the barbarians.

Manager Wang and his team tried every means. The border town was not broken for nearly three months, and it was not just the soldiers here.

The grain has been managed uniformly, and General Manager Wang did not order anyone to confiscate the grain, but everyone moved the grain from their homes to the gate of the General's Mansion.

Many elderly and children consciously began to save food rations, even if Chen Jin ate daily, they were also metered, and they started to give Chen Jin the same food as the wounded, whether it was a steamed bun with thick noodles mixed with fine noodles, or Chen Jin refused to eat it after discovering it, so it was the same as everyone else's food.

At the beginning, Chen Jin felt it was difficult to swallow, but he was so hungry that he could eat anything more delicious.

Butler Wang's right arm was broken, but he was just wrapped in thick clothes. He said with a gray face, "At most, you will be able to bear it for seven days, if there are no reinforcements..."

"There will be no reinforcements." Chu Xiuyuan had matured at some point, and the young man who would say that his brother would come back soon disappeared, "The emperor wants us to die."

"The general will come back." Butler Wang said.

Chu Xiuyuan couldn't help but blushed and said, "They had planned for so long, so long... If there was no accident, my brother would have been back long ago, but there was no news yet. I'm afraid..." The word "火门天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天

Chen Jin didn't know what to say, she even suspected that the emperor asked her to marry her and was an abandoned child. She might have just used the time of sending her off to contact the spies here, and then colluded with the barbarians... She would think at first, whether King Rui knew, but later she felt that it didn't matter whether King Rui knew or not.

Chu Xiuyuan looked at Chen Jin and said, "Sister-in-law, there is a secret room built in the royal palace. You can hide in these few days."

Butler Wang also said, "That secret room is enough to last until the general comes back. When the barbarians attack the city, I will let a torch the general's mansion burn. At that time, they will not find anyone missing. The ventilation opening of the secret room is special and thick smoke will not hinder it."

"Only the elder brother knows how to open the secret room, and you can also open it from it. Sister-in-law, you must not come out unless the elder brother comes back." Chu Xiuyuan's voice was hoarse.

Chen Jin moved his lips and finally said, "Let those children hide in." It was not that she was not afraid of death or righteousness, but Chen Jin understood that her mother might get more benefits when she died. If she survived, what would Uncle Yongning come back? His younger brother and his subordinates stood until the last moment, while Chen Jin, the nominal wife, hid in vain.

Especially her identity is embarrassing, and the people who did these things... Even if Chu Xiuyuan was on guard against the scene and did not allow the bride-sending team to enter the border town, it would be difficult to guarantee that it was not the news they conveyed.

I'm afraid that Yongning Bo had long hated her, but when he returned to the capital, there was no place for her to be in the capital. Chen Jin was not smart, but she could see clearly.

The most important point is that before the last moment, Chen Jin was unwilling to give up hope. If they could last until Yongning Bo comes back, for her life-threatening Bo would also give her a decent and a way out.

"Let all the elderly, children and seriously injured people enter the general's mansion first." Chen Jin said, "Let the children hide in the secret room."

Butler Wang looked at Chen Jin and suddenly said, "Madam's order."

Chu Xiuyuan also said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I will definitely protect you, even if I die, I will die in front of you."

Chen Jin's eyes turned red, she held back her tears and nodded, "Okay."

After spending this period of time together, Chen Jin and Chu Xiuyuan and others had a much harmonious relationship, and they no longer had the initial disgust of Butler Wang. Chen Jin looked at Butler Wang's broken arms that were still bleeding. She remembered that Butler Wang's calligraphy was very good. During the Chinese New Year, many people in the border town would come to ask Butler Wang to write Spring Festival couplets.

Xile also asked for it and showed it to Chen Jin. The word "六" is no worse than that of everyone in the capital, and it has a little more character that they don't have. However, the right hand that wrote was cut off by the barbarians in order to save a child who came up to deliver food to the soldiers.

In the face of big troubles, those small grievances are not that important. Besides, Chen Jin is not stupid. After seeing the attitude of the court, he also understood why Butler Wang and others were so cautious about themselves, but did not hurt her life and made people humiliate her, and they gave them all the ones they deserved.

Butler Wang quickly called his confidant and said everything about it, "Mrs. I'm afraid she doesn't think so much, but... so many people can't hide in the secret room, and it's not soundproofing. I can only choose children of the right age to go in."

"Advanced age?" Chen Jin looked at Butler Wang.

Butler Wang said, "Above six years old."

"But..." Chen Jin thought of so many children.

Although Chu Xiuyuan is young, he understands the cruelty of war than Chen Jin. "Sister-in-law, there is no way. If you are too young, don't talk about whether you can last until your brother comes back. If the city is broken and they cry and attract the barbarians, they will not be able to save it alone."

"Although the secret room has a vent, it is not very open in order to avoid attracting attention, and it can only be used for daily life. If someone dies inside, I am afraid it is..." Mr. Wang did not speak, and Chen Jin also understood that rotting the body can easily cause illness.

"But how do you want to tell the people?" Chen Jin looked at Anping unconsciously. Anping's sister-in-law only gave his family a son last year, and Anping's brother had already died on the city wall.

"Madam." An Ping looked away from Chen Jin and said, "Everyone in the city is our relatives. In order to make more relatives live, of course there must be sacrifices."

"Madam is too soft-hearted." Butler Wang said, "It's better for me to do it."

"I'll do it." Chen Jin said, "I want to do something for here too."

"Madam has done enough," Anping said with a smile.

Chen Jin shook his head, looked at Chu Xiuyuan and said, "You can rest for a while. I still have some donkey-hide gelatin, so let's stew it for you and the butler to eat."

"My ok sister-in-law." Chu Xiuyuan said with a smile, "Don't worry, my brother will be back."

Chen Jin nodded with a smile and said nothing. His mother had taught her the housekeeper, but she had never taught her how to housekeeper during the war. However, there was not so much attention at this time. She directly opened the gate of the general's mansion and let the elderly, children and seriously injured come in. These seriously injured people could not move. As long as they could still move, they were all guarding the city walls, and most of them died with the enemy, so there were really no minor injuries on the border town.

These seriously injured people started a hunger strike a few days ago, but they were forced to eat them.

Chu Xiuyuan and Shen Jin came together. After all, only Chu Xiuyuan knew the specific location of the secret room. Until now, not to mention these old people and children, even Chen Jin was dirty, with blood and soil on his clothes.

Chen Jin looked at everyone and suddenly said, "If there were no reinforcements, I would probably not be able to hold on for seven days." She originally thought it was not good to tell the people directly, but Butler Wang and Chu Xiuyuan agreed to say it directly, because they could not hide it at all, and now even women are on the city wall.

"There is a secret room in the general's mansion. At this time, children of the right age will be selected to hide in. If... they can't be slaughtered by someone, it won't look good when the general comes back." Chen Jin's voice had a unique soft and glutinous feeling.

Chu Xiuyuan stood up and knelt down suddenly, "It's my Chu family that didn't protect everyone."

"Major General!" After this period, these people no longer call him the Second Master Chu Xiuyuan, but called him the Major General, which is another form of recognition, "My sister-in-law and I will stand until the last moment! The city is there, the city is destroyed and the people are killed."

"Major General." All the people who could move knelt down at Chu Xiuyuan crying. Chen Jin led the people from the General's Mansion to kneel behind Chu Xiuyuan without speaking.

"Major General, you and your wife should come in! When the general comes back, the major general remember to let the general avenge us."

"Yes, Major General..."

"No need to say." Chu Xiuyuan stood up, first helped Chen Jin up, and then went to help the old man in the city one by one, "My Chu family only had ghosts who died in battle, and there were no ones who had survived."

"Madam is still young, let her hide in." Someone suggested looking at Chen Jin.

Chen Jin opened his mouth, "I am also from the Chu family." One sentence blocked everyone's mouth.

Manager Wang had already regarded Chen Jin as his own person and said, "This is the wife's proposal. The wife wanted all the children to hide in, but..." Manager Wang said the general reason.

Someone hugged the young child and cried quietly, but everyone understood that what Mr. Wang was right. Chen Jin couldn't bear to say, "Just just in case, it's not that far."

"Madam, don't worry, we understand." An old man over 50 years old stood up and said, "I'll choose people. If you want to resent, blame me."

"The Major General and his wife gave us their way of life, who can still have resentment?"

"The general will definitely come back."

Chen Jin and the others did not stay anymore, and there were still many things to be arranged outside. Chu Xiuyuan suddenly handed Chen Jin a dagger and did not say anything.

Chen Jin was stunned for a moment and looked at Chu Xiuyuan. Chu Xiuyuan put the dagger in Chen Jin's hand, "Sister-in-law, take it just in case."

Anping also said, "Madam, those barbarians are not humans and are inferior to beasts."

Chen Jin understood immediately, held the dagger tightly and said, "Yes."
