Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    One hundred thousand Chen troops were defeated overnight, and the Sui troops approached Jiankang City, catching everyone in the capital off guard.  People fled away to avoid the disaster. Aunt Lan wanted to take Xiao Yi and Xiaoya to flee to the south of the Yangtze River. However, Xiao Yi cared about his sister, and his father's life and death were uncertain, so he rushed to the palace to persuade his sister to leave quickly.  However, after marrying and following her husband, Chen Shen treated Xiao Jing very lovingly, but Xiao Jing couldn't bear to abandon her and wanted to take Chen Shen with her.  "But although Chen Shen was weak, he was proud. Before Chen Shubao and Zhang Lihua left, he was stubborn and refused to leave first.  So Xiao Jing and Chen Shen had to go to persuade Chen Shubao and Zhang Lihua to evacuate the capital as soon as possible.  This delay delayed the important matter. The elite defenders of the Chen army went to He Ruobi's troops to launch a fierce attack on the city. Unexpectedly, a group of rioters at Beiye Gate, seduced by the Sui army's careful tactics, attacked the defenders and forced their way out of the city. At this time, the city  Waihan captured the tiger and led 500 elite troops to cover up the attack and entered the city. Chen's army was immediately in chaos and fled in all directions.  Han Qinhu's troops were limited. In order to compete with He Ruobi for credit, he immediately gave up his plan to attack the east gate and join He Ruobi, and instead directly led his troops to attack the imperial city.  Although there are thousands of golden-armored warriors in the imperial city, none of them have combat experience, so they abandoned the defense of the city wall and came out to meet the enemy.  The 500 men led by Han Qinhu were elite soldiers. They defeated Chen Jun with a single charge and immediately entered the palace.  Chen Shubao did not forget to take three thousand beauties with him when he escaped, but he wasted time. In the end, he could not help but hide in the well with his two favorite concubines, Zhang Lihua and Kong Guiren.  Seeing how miserable his father was, the prince Chen Shen couldn't help but sigh, how could he be worthy of the ancestors of the Chen family, so he gave up his plan to escape and went straight back to the Main Hall to replace Chen Shubao and guard the last bit of the royal family's integrity.  Xiao Jing took Xiao Yi and Chen Ting, and planned to escape from the west side gate of the palace under the protection of Cheng Ying. When she learned that Chen Shen had returned to the Main Hall, Xiao Jing was worried and entrusted Cheng Ying to escort Xiao Yi and Chen Ting to leave first, while she herself  Go back and look for Chen Shen.  Xiao Yi naturally refused. He held on to his sister tightly and refused to let go. In the end, his arms could not hold her thighs, and her sister broke away.  Cheng Ying originally wanted to follow Xiao Jing, but she had to protect Xiao Yi and Chen Ting, so she had no choice but to grab the two children, one on the left and one on the right, at her waist and rush to the west side gate.  However, when they arrived at the west side gate, the three of them were dumbfounded. There was already a sea of ??people there. The palace maids and eunuchs rushed out desperately, and Chen Jun, who came for reinforcements from outside, crowded in. The small gate, which was not big, was suddenly overcrowded.  Seeing that he couldn¡¯t get out for a while, Cheng Ying had to choose another way.  Unexpectedly, Kong Fan led the Sui army and suddenly appeared. The enemy was extremely jealous when they saw Cheng Ying, Xiao Yi, and Chen Ting. However, Kong Fan ignored the others and directly led his troops to chase them.  Cheng Ying scolded Kong Fan for betraying his master and asking for glory, and hurriedly fled with his two children, but he ran into other Sui soldiers before they could get far.  With no sight in sight, Ying suddenly became anxious. At this moment, he found a dog hole next to him, just big enough for two children to get through, so he hurriedly ordered Xiao Yi to take Chen Ting and escape from there, while he left Duan Hou behind.  Xiao Yi no longer cares about Cheng Ying, and takes Chen Ting to escape from the dog cave in embarrassment.  When we got to the other side, it was still chaos, but no one paid attention to the two children, so Xiao Yi took Chen Tiaodong to hide in Tibet, trying to avoid crowded places and looking for opportunities to escape from the palace.  In the main hall, Chen Shen and Xiao Jing sat next to each other, leaving only Kong Boyu to serve them.  Han Qinhu led people into the hall and was about to arrest Chen Shen and Xiao Jing.  Kong Boyu, following Chen Shen's orders, comforted them and said: "The army is on the way, isn't it a waste of time?" Han Qinhu secretly complained that Chen Shen was much better than him, so he didn't bend down in the face of this mountain.  Their aura could not help but be awe-inspiring, and treated Chen Shen and Xiao Jing with the royal dignity they deserved.  Soon He Ruobi defeated Chen Jun head-on, but when he learned that Han Qinhu had taken the lead in entering the city, he became furious, cursed Han Qinhu for being shameless, and hurriedly led his army to Beiyemen.  When they arrived at Beiyemen, they learned that Han Qinhu had already entered the imperial city.  He Ruobi suddenly became furious and hurried to the palace and almost met Han Qinhu's swordsman.  Fortunately, Jin Wang Yang Guang and Prime Minister Gao Ying arrived in a hurry, which prevented them from fighting among themselves.  At this time, a Sui soldier came to report that Chen Shubao was found in the ancient well in front of Jingyang Hall.  Yang Guang was immediately overjoyed and hurried to Jingyang Palace with his generals.  At that time, the Sui army was pulling the rope on the well, but it felt extremely heavy. After pulling it up, they discovered that Chen Shubao, Zhang Lihua, and Kong Guibi were pulling up the same rope.  Zhang Lihua was already stunning in the world. At this time, she was soaked all over, her dress was tight-fitting, and her seven-foot-long hair was messy and wrapped around her graceful body. However, she was quite alluring, and everyone present felt suffocated by the temptation.  Yang Guang is known for his peerless beauty and charm.He was deeply attracted by her figure, and fearing that others would be the first to ask for her, he immediately announced that he would accept her as his concubine.  He Ruobi, Han Qinhu and other generals all swallowed their saliva, but they could only stare with greed.  When Gao Ying saw Yang Guang's eyes bursting with endless desire, he immediately stopped him. He said: "King Wu destroyed Yin and killed Daji. Now that Chen is at peace, Zhang Lihua needs to be killed to calm the people. It is not appropriate to marry Lihua." Yang Guang suddenly stopped.  Yue was about to argue, but unexpectedly Gao Ying ignored Yang Guang's objection and immediately ordered his close men to push Zhang Lihua and Kong Guiren out and behead them.  Yang Guang hated him very much, but he knew that Gao Ying was in a high position and could not be easily offended, so he planted the seeds of hatred in his heart.  Zhang Lihua and Kong Guiren were pushed to a palace canal and prepared to be beheaded. Unexpectedly, they were met by Xiao Yi and Chen Ting who were hiding in the canal not far away.  When Chen Ting saw that her mother was about to be beheaded, she rushed over.  Xiao Yi hurriedly grabbed her, fearing that Sui Jun would immediately cover her mouth if she shouted.  Unexpectedly, Chen Ting didn't care about anything at all, and immediately bit the back of Xiao Yi's hand hard.  Xiao Yi felt the pain and immediately let go of his hand, and Chen Ting immediately rushed out and shouted for her mother.  Chen Ting's appearance immediately alerted the Sui troops nearby. Yang Guang and others were watching the execution and all looked over.  When Zhang Lihua saw her daughter running over, she immediately shouted not to come over and told her to run away.  But Chen Ting didn't care at all. She threw herself into her mother's arms and burst into tears.  Yang Guang and others then realized that the little girl in front of them was Zhang Lihua's daughter. They felt that they could not bear to let her see their mother being executed, so they ordered Chen Ting to be taken away.  But Zhang Lihua suddenly said: "Zhang Lihua does not ask for your forgiveness, but I beg you to see that my daughter is still young and let us mother and daughter get together for a while. Zhang Lihua will be grateful to all the generals for their kindness." Yang Guang and others.  Everyone looked at Gao Ying until he felt like he was covered in hair, then Gao Ying nodded in agreement and gave the mother and daughter half a stick of incense time to get together.  Zhang Lihua hugged her daughter and cried bitterly. Yang Guang, Gao Ying and others felt guilty but did not dare to look again, and turned their heads.  Zhang Lihua took the opportunity to take off her sachet and bring it to her daughter, but she whispered in her ear: "Jing'er must remember that this sachet must not be lost, let alone leave it. When you get married in the future,  You can only open it in Japan, remember!¡± Zhang Lihua kept repeating this sentence in her daughter¡¯s ear, but Chen Ting kept crying, but she didn¡¯t know how much she heard.  Time is also destiny, wish yourself good luck!  Zhang Lihua sighed. The more she looked at her daughter, the sadder she became. She immediately stood up and said to Yang Guang: "After my death, I begged to be buried in Qinhuai. Because I came from Qinhuai and was of low origin, I did not dare to be buried with my queen."  When the army took action, Zhang Lihua hit a stone wall and died.  Everyone changed their expressions, and Yang Guang was even more sad and regretful when he heard this. He pointed at Gao Ying and said: "How can this be the courage of a woman who has brought disaster to the country and the people? It seems to me that Gao Ying must have been jealous of you because he failed to take over. The ancients said  , I will definitely repay Mr. Gao if he has no virtue!" Yang Guang threw away the harsh words and immediately left with his sleeves rolled up. Gao Ying sighed, smiled bitterly at Zhang Lihua's body and said, "This woman is really cruel.  He will never forget to take revenge on Gao Ying. Gao Ying has learned a lesson today. "Zhang Lihua passed away at the age of only thirty. Naturally, countless men mourned her death.  But it was said that Xiao Yi crawled along the palace river channel and encountered many fences in the middle. An adult would definitely have trouble getting through. However, Xiao Yi was small and thin and could just get through, and he escaped from the palace not long after.  I wanted to go back to the General¡¯s Mansion for a while, but I didn¡¯t expect that the place had already been sealed off by Kong Fan¡¯s men.  Kong Fan seemed to be unwilling to catch Xiao Yi, so he posted notices everywhere to arrest Xiao Yi. Obviously he wanted to avenge the death of Kong Long.  Xiao Yi had no choice but to find a way out of the city.  However, the Sui army's interrogation was very strict, and Xiao Yi's portrait was posted on the city gate.  In desperation, Xiao Yi had to repeat his old tricks, find the ditch leading to the moat, and climb out of the city again.
