Chapter 378: Layout

On the same day, such rumors spread from various places such as brothels, restaurants, tea houses, vegetable markets, steamed bun shops, and the streets.

At first, some people thought it was a rumor, but when the news began to spread dramatically and became known to everyone, they couldn't help but start questioning it.

Is the saint fake? Is this true?

If it's not true, then why do so many people know about it?

There was a heated discussion everywhere about it, and the voices began to get louder and louder, and gradually reached the palace.

When the Monarch of Baiyi Kingdom heard the report of his subordinates, he stood up suddenly, and asked sharply with a gloomy face: "Who is spreading such a rumor, and to what extent has this rumor been spread now?"

The people under his hands were so frightened that cold sweats broke out in their heads, "Return, back to Your Majesty, it has reached the point where everyone in the streets and alleys is well known...... Now that the people are discussing this matter, the voices of dissatisfaction have become louder and louder. ”

"Why didn't you tell me about this in time?" said the Monarch of the Baiyi Kingdom slapping the table angrily.

"I'm sorry Your Majesty, it was our negligence that we didn't notice at first. The subordinates were about to cry, "Now that the people are complaining, what should we do Your Majesty?"

The monarch of Baiyi Country had a gloomy face, pondered for a moment, and said coldly: "Send troops out and patrol the streets and alleys, if you hear anyone dare to talk about this matter again, you will be killed!"

"Yes!" the men hurriedly retreated.

So the mighty Janissaries began to patrol the streets and alleys, and anyone who talked about it would be arrested by them on trumped-up charges.

The people were already in a state of anger, but now the royal family is so unscrupulous in arresting people and trying to gag their mouths, so they become even more angry and want to rebel.

Many people joined forces against the Praetorian Guards, and when they fought, the streets and alleys were in chaos.

More and more people were enraged, and everywhere was plunged into war, and the whole street was filled with shouts and shouts of killing.

Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, his subordinates hurried to tell the king.

The monarch realized that the matter was getting bigger, so he stood up in fright, his face turned pale, and hurriedly said: "Quick, hurry up and withdraw all the Janissaries, quick!"

If this continues to make trouble, I am afraid that the people will really rebel.

If it really sets off a big wave and capsizes his ship, it will really outweigh the losses.

Who spread the rumors? If he is caught, they will definitely not be able to eat and walk around!

The king's teeth are about to be crushed.

Although he immediately ordered the Praetorian Guard to be withdrawn, it was too late, and the people were already completely enraged, and they shouted for the king to come out and give them an explanation, and explain what was going on with the false saint.

The false saint received the news, and she wanted to escape secretly, but who knew that when she walked out, a large number of soldiers were waiting for her at the door.

The eunuch beside the monarch sneered and said, "Holy Maiden, please come with us." ”

In the midst of the indignation, the monarch ascended the platform and personally promised the people in the audience: "I know that some well-intentioned people have recently spread bad remarks, causing dissatisfaction among the people, and I hereby promise you to withdraw your troops, not to participate in the war casually, and to dispose of the false saint and find the real saint back."

I don't know about the false saint, and I will do my best to make amends in order to ask for forgiveness from the people. ”

Although the people were still angry, these words calmed people's hearts.

The false saint was imprisoned, and the room would recognize her before and after, and she could not fly at all.

She knew that the monarch would definitely dispose of her in order to appease the people, and when she thought of this, she regretted that she had not left earlier.

Suddenly, there was a commotion outside, and the sound of swords clashing.

The false saint was very surprised, and was about to see what was going on, when suddenly the door of the room was kicked open, and a black dressed man broke in and grabbed her hand, "Our master asked me to save you, come with me!"

The false saint didn't even have time to ask, so she was dragged and forced to leave.

After arriving outside, she realized that the master of the man in black was Shen Zecang.

"It seems that you can't stay in this Baiyi Country anymore, why don't you go back with me?" Shen Zecang raised his eyebrows.

The false saint bit her lower lip, "Why not?"

Anyway, she has nowhere to go now, follow Shen Zecang, at least Shen Zecang can protect her.

So Shen Zecang took her back to the house.

After Shen Zecang's staff heard that he had brought the false saintess back, they rushed over to persuade him not to wade into this troubled water, if the monarch of Baiyi Country knew about it, he would definitely turn against him.

Shen Zecang snorted coldly: "If no one tells him, how can he know?

No matter how persuaded by his subordinates, he just wanted to go his own way and leave the false saint behind.

Song Wanyan has been under house arrest by Shen Zecang for many days, and she has never left the courtyard.

She has been holding back, looking for a chance to get out of such days, so she behaves quite well.

Today's house was very lively, and she vaguely saw the maids outside in the courtyard being busy, and she didn't know what was going on, and she looked like she was in a hurry.

When the maid came back from lunch, she saw Song Wanyan frowning and looking out the window, and couldn't help asking, "Madam, what's wrong?"

Song Wanyan frowned and asked, "What's going on outside, why is there a commotion?"

The maid hesitated, shook her head, and said, "It's nothing, it's just a little more lively than usual." ”

"If it's nothing, how can it be more lively than usual? Tell me, what happened?" asked Song Wanyan coldly.

The maid couldn't hide it from her, so she had to tell the truth.

"Two days ago, the master brought back a woman from outside, and he was very fond of that woman, and he had been letting her live in his room. The maid sighed.

She had known about it for a long time, and on the first day that the woman was brought back, everyone in the house was discussing it.

They said that the master has a new favorite, and the lady is so unpleasing to the master, and she is under house arrest, and she is definitely going to fall out of favor.

So they were all busy trying to please the new favorite.

It turns out that Shen Zecang is indeed very fond of that new favorite, and he uses all the best food and clothing, and now he even has to clean up the room in Dongyuan for her to live in.

It was the best room in the house, and even Song Wanyan was not qualified to live in it, so she actually let a woman who had just come to live in it.

The people in the house are saying that the mistress of this house is about to change hands.
