First Minister of Ming Dynasty - Chapter 2 Zhu Zhong 8

　　 Xiao Muying had just lost her mother and was crying sadly again. Soon she lay down on the carriage and fell asleep. Zhang mother covered a piece of clothing on Muying's body.

　　 The carriage continued to move forward. It was not until the afternoon that Mu Ying woke up. At this time, Zhang Ximeng held a quarter of a cake and delivered it to his mouth.

　　 "Get hungry, eat some!"

　　 Muying did not dare to answer, but raised her head and looked at Zhang Ximeng and Zhang's mother next to her nervously.

　　 The eye circles of Mother Zhang looked red. How long has their family been so embarrassed?

　　 "Don't be afraid, this is yours, we big guys have them, we have them all!"

　　 That's right, this is the last cake on the car. It was divided into four equal parts, one for each person.

　　 "Since we are together, we are a family. We have to cook a grain of rice into porridge and eat it separately. This is our family's rule!"

　　 Father’s words came from outside the car.

　　 "Thank you, thank you."

　　 The little guy tremblingly took it, looking stupidly, as if there was nothing wrong with the baby, but he couldn't bear to say anything. But it was so fragrant that it caused him to slobber.

　　 Suddenly, the little guy bit down suddenly, chewed, and a happy smile appeared on his little cheek...

　　 The carriage is still on the move, and Father Zhang encourages them from time to time. There is nothing to be afraid of. He has been reading books for so many years. As long as you have a place to stay, you can live even if you set up a stall, write letters on your behalf, and measure words and divinations.

　　 As long as this scholar is not decent, there is no reason why he can't live!

　　 The words of the old man made the lady in the carriage both funny and wanting to cry. This was actually said from the husband's mouth? Don’t you often recite the righteous song of Prime Minister Wen? Don’t you often say you don’t buckle for five buckets of rice? Where is your pride?

　　 I want to laugh, but feel sad.

　　 Daddy Zhang seems to have guessed it.

"Madam, are you going to laugh at me? Tell you, I haven't changed. We are going to Haozhou, not Yuanting. If, if the leader of the Red Scarf Army is really a talented man, I will assist me. He, maybe he can still make the story of Emperor Han Gaozu and Xiao He!"

Mrs. 　　 really laughed out loud, so thick-skinned, don't think about good things, just be safe and sound.

　　 Zhang Ximeng didn't dare to laugh, but he discovered a little bit of his father's strengths, making fun in hardship, at least not pedantic. It seems that there are not many civil servants under Lao Zhu, as long as he arrives in Haozhou safely, he will still have a chance in the future.

　　 The carriage was getting closer and closer to Haozhou, and Zhang Ximeng's mind became more and more vivid.

　　 But at this moment, a group of soldiers suddenly appeared not far away. They escorted the looted property and food back to the camp.

　　 There are **** heads tied to the horsehair of some people. There are old and young, male and female, which seem to be triumphant. It's just that they only know whether it is good or not.

　　 Seeing this scene, Old Zhang suddenly lost his soul, he quickly turned the carriage, and quickly escaped from the gang of plague gods and evil spirits.

　　 But when Father Zhang was about to escape, Yuan Bing seemed to have spotted them, and even separated two horses and chased them towards the carriage. The two Yuan soldiers raised their weapons high and made strange noises, as if they had seen the prey beasts.

"not good!"

　　 Dad hurried to the car and fled, Zhang Ximeng and my mother in the car were also terrified.

　　 What should I do?

　　 At this moment, Daddy Zhang also has a numb scalp and his hair is standing upright. Looking back, Yuan Bing has been getting closer and closer. How could his broken carriage run past others?

　　 Is their family going to die?

　　 Father Zhang was anxious, and found a trench on the side of the road, a few willow trees and a clump of dead grass on the side of the ditch.

　　 There is a way!

Father Zhang stopped the carriage, he turned his head and stretched out his hand, grabbing Zhang Ximeng's arm, "Get off the car!" The old lady helped him and got Zhang Ximeng out of the carriage. As for Muying, the little guy was very flexible and followed. He closed his lips tightly, his small eyes rolled around, and Yuan Bing was getting closer and closer.

　　 "You quickly take them and hide inside."

　　 Mother Zhang was taken aback, "Master, how about you?"

　　 "Don't worry about me!"

　　 Father Zhang only said this, and then jumped on the cowl again, waved the whip lifelessly, the old horse ran wildly with pain, Yuanbing saw the carriage and chased it down.

　　 Mother Zhang was startled at first, why didn't she understand that her husband was using his life to protect them!

　　 Two decades of husband and wife, the husband is her heaven and everything to her, but now the husband wants to do nothing for her and his son.

　　 Mother Zhang couldn't wait to die with her husband, but her son was still with her, and her liver was torn in two.

　　 At this moment, Zhang Ximeng's face was pale, and his eyes were burning with anger. He knew that the soldiers were cruel, but when the butcher knife fell on his family, the anger was really indescribable. But at this time, he even had difficulty walking, and he fell in a gust of wind, so what can he do?

Mother pulled Zhang Ximeng and ran into the bushes. She looked to both sides. Fortunately, there were some dead grass and leaves that could cover her body... She didn't care about anything, and grabbed with her hands. There was blood flowing out of her white fingers. She didn't seem to know it hurts. Like, Zhang Ximeng and Mu Ying were covered.

　　 Just as Zhang's mother was trying to find a place to hide for herself, suddenly the sound of horseshoes approached from far away, and Zhang's mother was shocked again.

　　 broke, the husband did not lead the group of beasts too far, they are back!

　　 With so many trees, where can three people be hidden?

　　 Husband is dead, is it impossible to let him die in vain?

"My son, my mother can't take care of you anymore, I have to live well!" Mother Zhang stared at her son, as if to engrave his appearance in her heart, then rushed out of the grove with tears, and ran in the other direction resolutely go out.

　　 Zhang Ximeng was stunned. Anyone who came from Taiping years, ever thought that a group of officers and soldiers dared to slaughter the people openly? The parents went to death one after another in order to save themselves.

　　 What kind of world is this? Zhang Ximeng felt that he was about to explode. He was angry and sad. He didn't want the parents he had just acquired to lose like this.

　　 "Mother, come back!"

　　 Zhang Ximeng wanted to stand up and stop his mother, even if he died, he would die together. But he was too weak. He was only halfway up, and fell down when his eyes were dark.

In a daze, Zhang Ximeng heard the screams, and his mother was dead...In grief and anger, Zhang Ximeng was completely unconscious. Muying curled up beside him suddenly moved. He quickly covered Zhang Ximeng's face with dead branches and fallen leaves. Still motionless, curled up next to Zhang Ximeng, his movements are distressing.

　　……

　　 The night was cold, Zhang Ximeng slowly woke up and was still alive! I don't know if Yuan Bing had been deceived, or was too lazy to search, anyhow he escaped.

　　 He gritted his teeth, tried his best, got up a little bit from the ground, and finally got up, but his body was still too weak and he was about to fall down again.

　　 At this time, a little guy hugged him, it was Mu Ying!

　　 "Thanks a lot."

　　 Zhang Ximeng and Mu Ying came out slowly, and after identifying the direction, Zhang Ximeng went down. Not far away, a woman's body was lying sideways on the road.

　　 is just mother Zhang!

　　 Zhang Ximeng's body shook, tears gushing out. After a long while, he turned his head and walked to the south, the distance was three times farther, and the old man's body was also there!

　　 Zhang Ximeng couldn't help it anymore and cried out.

　　 Zhang Ximeng wanted to bury the couple together... but he didn't even have the strength to drag the corpse, let alone dig a pit for burial. Zhang Ximeng hated it to the extreme. If there is a chance, he wants to destroy Yuan Ting a hundred times!

　　 Helpless Zhang Ximeng and Mu Ying could only cover the corpses of their parents with branches, stones, and dirt separately, and Zhang Ximeng solemnly bowed their heads in front of them.

　　 After all this, it is already dawn.

Rising from the ground, Zhang Ximeng and Mu Ying headed towards Haozhou. They were not sure how far they were, they just walked step by step... It was just that Zhang Ximeng was already weak and difficult to move. After experiencing great grief, he was already unable to support it. .

　　 is going forward completely by the will to survive, one step, one step...the empty abdomen, the emptiness and cramps, the cold wind, Zhang Ximeng staggers.

　　 From morning, to noon, and to the afternoon, Zhang Ximeng can't remember how many times he fell~www.novelbuddy.com~ but he got up every time and continued to walk forward.

　　 Just being alone has a limit after all, Zhang Ximeng fell to the ground, losing the slightest strength.

　　 After driving away Mu Ying, Zhang Ximeng passed out completely, just waiting for death to come.

　　 I don’t know how long it took, when suddenly a carriage appeared on the road and was rushing towards it.

　　 There was a burly man sitting on the shaft of the car. He drove the car while searching anxiously. Suddenly, he noticed that there seemed to be something beside the road, and the man slowed down the carriage.

　　 At this time, a small head poked out of the carriage.

　　 is Muying!

　　 He actually came back!

　　 The little guy recognized Zhang Ximeng, threw himself on him, shook it hard, and cried loudly.

　　 At this moment, another woman got out of the car. She also rushed over. Seeing Zhang Ximeng's face turned sallow, like a dead person, her heart was also suspended.

　　 "Chongba, is he still alive?"

　　 The man grabbed Zhang Ximeng’s wrist and said for a moment: "There is still a pulse, but I don’t know if I can save it!"

　　 Muying immediately stopped her grief, and looked at the couple pleadingly.

The woman stretched out her hand and took Mu Ying in her arms, and then said to her husband: "Chongba, today the winter solstice, let's come out to pay homage to our ancestors. I think that this incident is also the spirit of the in-laws in the sky, let us help. No matter what. No matter what."

　　 The man nodded, "The girl said, we can save people!"

　　 The man leaned over and picked up Zhang Ximeng. The woman also hugged Mu Ying and got into the carriage together. Then he galloped east, and at dusk, he arrived outside Haozhou City.

　　 "It's Mr. Zhu and Miss Zhu who are back, open the gate of the city soon!"

　　The soldier guarding the gate shouted excitedly.

　　 It turned out that the man was called Chongba, whose surname was Zhu...
