Chapter 431 Ning Zhiwei, she personally led the troops to chase
A loud scream pierced the night sky, the palace was in chaos, and the soldiers defending the city were stunned.
You kept saying that you would defend the country to the death, that you would rather die than leave, and that you would live and die with the capital. You fooled everyone, but you turned around and ran away?! Are you still a human being?
As a king, abandoning your people is unkind.
For a husband to abandon his wives and concubines is unrighteous.
Is such a person worthy of the soldiers risking their lives for him?
For a moment, the soldiers were confused, discouraged, and no longer had the will to fight.
The officials and generals who reacted quickly immediately followed and ran away, as escaping was the most important thing.
Leaving behind a group of bewildered and helpless soldiers defending the city, not knowing where to go.
Someone secretly opened the city gate, and the Ning family army lurking in the dark night rushed in and attacked the city without encountering any strong resistance along the way.
Ning Zhiwei rode into the capital and issued three prohibitions: "Do not harass the people, do not burn, kill, rob, or break into ordinary people's homes."
Since they won't resist, there's no need to kill more people.
The Ning family army has strict military discipline, and there will be no mercy if you violate the military discipline.
At the same time, she ordered the people in the city not to go out on the streets for three days and to stay at home. If they did not obey the order, they would be killed without mercy.
Three days were enough for them to firmly control the capital.
Ning Zhiwei ordered, "Mr. Zhou, you stay here to take charge of the situation. I will go after Su Mingjin."
Zhou Hongye was used to the emperor destroying the city in the front, and he would clean up the mess in the back, search the homes of corrupt officials, and control and gather the original garrison.
And this time, the treasury of Jiang State was confiscated, so there should be a lot of good things.
"Yes, what about those concubines?"
Ning Zhiwei said without hesitation, "Lock them all up and wait for me to come back and deal with them."
After saying this, she spurred her horse onto the gallop and rode away.
It was late at night and Su Mingjin was sitting in a carriage, traveling in the dark. His heart was pounding and his eyelids were twitching. He felt like something big was going to happen.
He touched his eyelids, feeling uneasy.
"Long Yi, is there something wrong?"
"Back to the Emperor, no."
Su Mingjin only brought 10,000 personal guards. If there were more people, the news would leak out.
As long as the guards delayed for two or three days, he would be on a ship and far away.
"Speed up and try to get to the beach before daybreak."
"Yes."
They hurried along the way and no one dared to say anything. Su Mingjin lowered his eyes and looked at his hands, unable to help but smile bitterly.
How did he end up like this?
The king of a country is like a dog that has lost its home, which is sad and lamentable.
A ray of morning light slowly rose through the night, and it was daybreak.
"Your Majesty, I can see the sea."
Su Mingjin lifted the car window and looked out. In the distance was a blue sea. There were three ships parked on the shore, each capable of carrying tens of thousands of people.
The ship was very large and its hull was extremely strong. Once you were on board, you were safe.
A childish voice sounded in the carriage, "Father, where is this?"
He was a little boy, the son born to him by Lin Jingshu and his only child, so naturally he received all his love.
At some point, the little boy woke up, rubbed his eyes, and threw himself into his arms and acted coquettishly.
Seeing his son, Su Mingjin's eyes softened. He held his little body and changed direction, "Look at the seaside."
The little boy saw the beautiful sea and his eyes lit up. "Wow, it's a big ship. So beautiful. Can I go on board and play?"
"can."
The little boy was very interested and cheered, "Great, Father, bring mother along too, so we can be a complete family."
Su Mingjin's eyes changed slightly. These words were not something a child would say. They were clearly taught by Lin Jingshu.
But now, he didn't know whether Lin Jingshu was alive or dead.
If he died, it would be a good thing.
Because she would be trouble no matter who got her into the hands of others, and he didn't think that she, who was afraid of death, would keep the secret.
The little boy looked on eagerly, "Father, where are we going?"
Su Mingjin said calmly, "Ball Island."
"where is that?"
"Our other home." Su Mingjin's expression was indescribably complicated. He never expected that one day he would use this idle chess move.
Su Asi, who was standing guard beside the carriage on horseback, pricked up his ears and heard it clearly. He was moved, "Qiu Island? Is it far from here?"
Is this the Su family's overseas base? The Su family's escape route?
Su Mingjin frowned, wondering when it would be his turn to interrupt.
He replied perfunctorily, "Far, very far."
Su Asi heard it and sneered in his heart, looking down on him so much, but he just tricked him.
Now, we have the ships and the location, and all that is left is the nautical chart.
"Your Majesty, are you really going to give up your foundation on the mainland? Once you board the ship, you will never be able to come back."
Su Mingjin sighed with melancholy, "I will be back."
"We will come back in a few years to take a look. If the people are not living well, we will fight back."
Su Asi was happy. If it doesn’t work now, why wait until later?
"I heard that the weather at sea is unpredictable, there are often storms, and the boat could capsize at any time. I'm worried..."
Su Mingjin's face changed slightly, and he shouted, "Shut up, bad luck, I am the true dragon emperor, I will turn danger into safety when encountering troubles."
Su Asi chuckled, "But, you've been driven away, are you still the emperor? We, the Jiang family, finally restored our country, but it's going to be lost again in just a few years. I'm heartbroken."
Su Mingjin felt very uncomfortable, "Okay, it's not like I won't come back."
Su Asi did it on purpose. "I can't step on land. I feel unsafe. The sea water all looks the same. There are no signs or reference points. Will I get lost?"
In fact, Su Mingjin was unsure, but he didn't show it on his face. "Don't worry, we have the sea chart. We can come and go freely in this sea area."
Su Asi's eyes flashed, "So magical? Can I take a look?"
Su Mingjin frowned slightly, "Ah Si, you are overstepping the boundaries. The sea chart is a treasure that has been passed down from generation to generation in my Su family, and it is only passed down to the clan leader."
Su Asi was very disappointed, but he didn't know what to say.
"Okay, we're here, get off the carriage."
With the help of the guards, Su Mingjin got off the carriage and took his son down with him.
Everyone looked up at the ship, with different expressions. They were leaving Middle-earth and their families...
At this moment, Long Yi's expression changed slightly, "What sound?"
Su Asi glanced at him calmly and said, "Maybe it's the sound of waves?"
Long Yi listened carefully, and soon his expression changed, "Oh no, it's the sound of horse hooves."
"The pursuers are here."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was surprised and confused, and they all looked back the way they came.
A group of small black dots came running towards them, getting closer and closer.
Su Mingjin looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar figure and his face turned pale.
"That's Ning Zhiwei. She's personally leading her troops to chase me! She wants me dead!"
