Chapter 19 — The Street They Live in Nhan Hoi Quan

The attention of the Huyen Giap army was all placed on the south gate. After the envoys came down from the north wall, they quickly dispersed. One stick of incense later, in the distance, the sound of killing was heard. Two people were discovered. The remaining four had no signal. We can only wait. Cracks appeared at the south gate. Soldiers used large pieces of wood to prop themselves up. People spontaneously brought stones, door panels and sacks full of sand and soil. Tien Thi is also among them. Her silk shop was requisitioned as a place to accommodate wounded soldiers. She tore the most precious silk into long strips and bandaged the wounded soldiers. Someone scolded her for knowing this early, so why not at first. Tien Thi did not argue, just bowed her head and tied the knot. The Venerable Master was tied up in the corner of the citadel. He looked at the shaking city gate and suddenly shouted: "I know the signal to attack the city from the Huyen Giap army!" No one noticed him. He shouted even more urgently. "Tonight they will pretend to attack the south gate, the real people will enter from the southwest secret passage!" I turned to look at him. "The secret passage is in our hands." "There is still an old waterway!" Ton Chu gasped. "In the school warehouse book, it is recorded. It is a drainage sewer left behind when the river to protect the citadel thirty years ago, the exit is at the abandoned kiln west of the citadel."I immediately asked Tran Tinh to take someone to check. Co Thinh Loan also followed two steps. "I don't know this path." The Venerable Master laughed: "Niang Niang doesn't know many things." "Tieu Tan has never given you all the cards." Someone entered the abandoned kiln in the west of the city. When Tran Tinh ran over, dozens of Huyen Giap Guards were crawling out of the sewer. The two sides slaughtered each other in the narrow cave. I'll lead people to reinforce you. The torch crashed, and in the darkness there was the sound of swords and swords clashing. A Huyen Armored Guard rushed in front of me. I leaned forward to avoid it, and the short knife slashed under his ribs. As I fell, he grabbed my ankle. Another sword slashed down from above. Co Thinh Loan suddenly pushed me. The blade fell on her back. She groaned softly, hitting the wall. Tien Tu threw the torch at the other person, Tran Tinh slashed the other person's arm with a knife. I supported Co Thinh Loan. "What are you following?" Her face turned pale in pain. "Repay your debt." "This knife can't repay you." "I know." Her forehead was full of cold sweat, the corner of her mouth pulled up a little. "Anyway, it's better than doing nothing." The entrance to the sewer was finally sealed. Of the sixty-three Huyen Giap guards who rushed in, more than forty people died, and the rest were all captured. One of them is the Commander of Tieu Tan's bodyguard. Luc Tram Thu once saw his name in a secret order. After Co Thinh Loan recognized him, he immediately sent someone to search. On the side of the Guard Commander hid a list of actions after the siege. Luc Thi's entire family was beheaded. Trieu Khac, Tran Tinh and other generals guarding the citadel were buried. Many people participate in defending the civil status base, one person for every ten prisons to serve as a deterrent. Tien Thi, Ton Chu Bo and other internal ministers are also on the beheading list. After watching, the Venerable Master sat down on the ground. "He once promised to give me an official position." The guard commander sneered: "The traitor also deserves to be an official?" Tien Thi looked at the list once. After her name, four words were written. "Once finished, die immediately." She sat in front of the abandoned kiln, not speaking for a long time. Co Thinh Loan ordered someone to pull the Guard Leader to the front. "Where is Co Thua An?" The leader looked at her. "He's dead." "When?" "Half a year ago." Co Thinh Loan's hand hung down. "What about the other Co family members?" "On the way to Linh Nam, there were bandits, no one survived." "Is it Tieu Tan who gave the order?" The leader closed his mouth. Co Thinh Loan pulled out the knife from Tran Tinh's waist and stabbed him in the shoulder. "Speak." The commander gritted his teeth and smiled. "At first, the lady handed over the evidence of the Co family's crimes to her majesty, wasn't it right?

thinking about today?" Co Thinh Loan pulled out his knife and stabbed again. "Who gave the order?" "Your Majesty." "Is Thi Ninh participating?" "Queen Ninh's father is in charge of escorting." Co Thinh Loan's hand holding the knife began to tremble. The commander said in a low voice: "Your Majesty also said, the Co family is all dead, in this world there is only him." Co Thinh Loan suddenly laughed. The laughter went from low to high, and finally brought with it tears. "There's only him left." "He abolished me, and established Ninh Thi." The commander said: "Your Majesty said that if you can bring back the Luc family's tiger talisman, you can still welcome people back to the palace." She swung the knife and cut through his neck. Fresh blood splattered on his face. Co Thinh Loan stood in place, still holding the knife. No one stepped forward. A long time later, she threw her knife at my body. "Where is Tieu Tan setting up camp?" No prisoner answered. Co Thinh Loan pulled out a map of the military camp's layout from his commander's sleeve. "Behind his general's general is a temporary food warehouse." "Even though more than half of the grass was blocked, he still had three days of military food left." "The west side of the camp is like a mountain, normally the weakest defense." I looked at her. "What do you want to do?" "Open the north gate." "Let Luc Tram Thu's people enter the city?" "They did not enter the city." Co Thinh Loan pointed to the map. room. "You guys pretend to break through the siege from the north gate, attracting the Huyen Giap army to move to the west."
