Chapter 51: Flying arrows send letters

On the east wall of Zhuti County, Sheng Hong put his hands on the battlements and stared at the city with his eyes dull.

There are no less than 2,000 people on the outside of the city wall. They hold weapons and launch an attack at any time.

Except for this section of the city wall, there are people on the other three sides, with a number of no less than 2,000 people.

"What to do? What to do?"

Sheng Hong's mob, with no less than ten thousand people, looked pale and powerless.

At the same time, I thought I was very unlucky this year. First, my two daughters were robbed. A riot occurred five days ago, and today a mob siege occurred.

Thinking of this, Sheng Hong’s affair is nothing more than his heart’s death.

"Father, how is the situation?"

Sheng Changbai came to his side wearing leather armor and holding a long sword.

Sheng Hong lowered his head and said, "The mob has not yet attacked the city."

Then he raised his head and looked at Sheng Changbai with anticipation: "Has the news been spread?"

"Three groups of people were sent, and they were all killed by mobs outside the city."

"Oh, Zhu Ti is in danger!" Sheng Hong's hands slammed heavily on the hard battlements.

Seeing that his father was lost, Sheng Changbai said, "Father, don't be discouraged. My son believes that such a big thing will definitely alarm the county magistrate.

The most important thing now is to stick to the city and wait for the arrival of reinforcements."

"My son is right. The most important thing at the moment is to defend the city wall and prevent mobs from entering the city."

After hearing what his son said, Sheng Hong regained his confidence.

At the same time, I was secretly grateful that I just had to defend the city and wait until reinforcements eliminated these mobs.

He can at least get one credit for protecting the country and the people, and his official rank can be promoted to the first and second ranks.

Thinking of being promoted, Sheng Hong felt very energetic.

"Changbai, you are here to stare at them, I will go back to the county government first."

"OK."

Sheng Changbai watched his father leave until his back disappeared.

Then he looked at the mob outside the city to cook with a stove, his eyes full of sorrow.

...

Outside the city, in a large tent, two girls with belly erect were angry at a man.

They are Zhang Rui and Ming Lan Rulan.

"Why don't you let us meet our father and mother?"

Rulan asked with her little face bulging and her hands were inserted into her waist.

Minglan sat on a high-legged round chair and asked, "Why did you surround the city? Are you going to fight with my father?"

Zhang Rui helped Rulan to the chair and replied to Rulan's question: "Watch me, I will definitely let you meet, but now is not the time, do you understand?"

Rulan still doesn't understand why her family is right in front of her, so why not let them meet.

Zhang Rui replied to Minglan again: "As for why he surrounds Zhuti County, I will give Sheng Hong a warning later."

"ah!"

Two girls exclaimed.

"You bastard, he is our father and your father-in-law."

Minglan couldn't bear it anymore, her little face turned red with anger, and she pointed at Zhang Rui's face and scolded him.

Rulan jumped off the chair excitedly, waved her pink fist, and hit Zhang Rui's chest.

Zhang Rui was afraid that something might happen to Rulan, so he quickly comforted her and sat down.

At the same time, sitting cross-legged in front of the two of them, saying, "You really don't let me worry, especially you, like a girl."

Rulan snorted softly, "Who wants you to hit our father?"

Zhang Rui smiled and started a new topic: "Okay, the food is almost cold, let's have a meal."

"I'm so full of breath, what else can I eat?" Minglan replied expressionlessly.

Rulan tapped her little head and said, "Yes, I'm full of anger, too."

"That won't work. Even if you don't eat, my two children will have to eat?"

"So for the sake of the children, you have to eat it if you don't eat it."

In order to let them have a meal, Zhang Rui played a rogue.

"you..."

Rulan was so angry that she couldn't speak.

This guy is so shameless.

"Sister, ignore him." Minglan knew that he always made sense.

"Hmph." Rulan felt it was reasonable and ignored him anymore.

"You are angry and look very beautiful." Zhang Rui said with a smile.

The two girls rolled their eyes together.

"Little ancestors, I have given up on my defeat. How about taking you to see Sheng Hong tonight?"

Zhang Rui decided to surrender, and he couldn't really let the two girls stop eating.

"Really?" Rulan turned around to face Zhang Rui, unable to believe it.

Zhang Rui stroked his forehead with one hand and felt that he was a failure.

Alas, I really took it upon myself. I knew I wouldn't have lie to them before.

As a result, every time I promised them something, I had a look of doubt.

Zhang Rui replied with a heavy emphasis: "Really."

"Okay, let's have a meal."

Minglan, who was beside her, quietly blinked at Rulan.

Rulan received the signal and the corner of her mouth rose slightly.

Then the two of them picked up the chopsticks, and they started eating with one bite, and I started to eat.

Seeing this, Zhang Rui understood that he had been fooled by two girls.

Zhang Rui smiled bitterly, sat between the two of them, looked left and right.

The two girls felt guilty, but they still had nothing to do with their meal.

Minglan even picked up a chopstick of fish and prepared to feed him.

"Ah... open your mouth."

Zhang Rui bit the fish meat with chopsticks, as if the fish meat was her.

Minglan was amused by his willful look.

Then he opened his mouth and Minglan pulled out his chopsticks, with his saliva on it.

Then he said, "You feed me this meal today, which is a punishment for lying to me."

"I don't want it."

“I won’t feed it.”

Two girls directly rejected Zhang Rui.

"You... OK, can I feed you?"

Zhang Rui gritted his teeth.

"Can."

They looked at each other and said in unison.

Then there was another burst of laughter from silver bells moving.

Zhang Rui also laughed happily.

...

One hour later...

Zhang Rui came out of the tent and headed to the east city wall.

Here, the two sides are tense and a war breaks out at any time.
