Chapter 82: Coming Forward to Stabilize People's Hearts
Across the crowd, Nangong Yi was a little helpless, this time I was afraid it really annoyed her.
Hua Yu is a person, not regardless of the overall situation, but she is never willing to make excuses for hurting innocents, even though Nangong Yi is suspicious and wary of her, but in her selfishness, her pure distinction between good and evil makes him involuntarily like it, even if he knows that he can't do it, seeing that she can do it, he feels a lot easier.
Nangong Yi originally didn't expect Hua Wei to appear in Qiongzhou, after the riots of the people in Qiongzhou, it would inevitably cause trauma to the local Daomen forces, which would only be good for him and not harmful, so he didn't have any hesitation about his plan.
But since Hua Yu saw through his plan, he knew that this matter could not be left alone, and if she knew, she would definitely turn against herself.
Therefore, he persuaded her to stay, and use her prestige to help suppress these frightened people, so as to reduce the loss of the Daomen.
Nangong Yi stood in the carriage and sighed secretly that she had left her, if she had only heard about it after she went back, she didn't know what to think of him.
He calmed the restless crowd and led them into the city.
Only then did I know that the city guard had been beaten to death by the riotous people because of his greed and cruelty, and his house was surrounded by layers of people.
Nangong Yi asked the chaotic people to withdraw, organized the people of the yamen to maintain order, and brought some key people back to the palace to understand the situation.
Nangong Yi asked, "Where are the masters of those little Taoist masters?"
The white-haired old man said that he was tied up in the city tower and was going to hang him from the city tower.
Nangong Yi looked at Xibai, and Xibai immediately understood, "My subordinates will go and tell the flower chief." ”
The white-haired old man was the chief of several villages outside the city, and he had also seen the world when he was young, and when he met a figure like Nangong Yi, he didn't even dare to speak, and even asked: "Your Highness, dare to ask ...... female Taoist chief is."
"What? ”
"This ...... Your Royal Highness, you also know that the reason why Qiongzhou is in chaos like this is because of the demonic Dao, this Xiaodao elder is so inconsistent with his cultivation, and he needs to be more careful......"
Nangong Yi shook his head and said comfortingly: "Don't be afraid, the old man doesn't have to be afraid, she's not an evil sect, she's-"
"Who is gossiping about me behind my back?" a voice simply sounded, and everyone was frightened and looked back.
The flowers came, followed by those embarrassed Taoist priests.
The people retreated in fear.
The sword-wielding boy just now clenched his fists, staring on guard, ready to stand in front of her at any time.
The scene immediately became tense again.
Hua Yu looked at Nangong Yi before her eyes fell on the people, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, if such a bad thing happens in Qiongzhou, the cultivation world and the world should trust each other even more, otherwise how can you let the truly heinous people fall under the law?"
The crowd was still watching her cautiously.
Hua Yu continued: "There is no problem with the cultivation method of these Taoist priests, I have questioned it carefully, they don't know anything about the deeds of Qiongzhou City, people's hearts are all flesh and bones, do you really want to leave the bad people who plague Qiongzhou alone and bully honest people?"
"You, who are you, why do you say they're okay?" shouted a strong man.
"Can't you believe me?" Hua Wei turned to him and said word by word: "I am a Taoist priest of Chang'an Gongguan, and I will inspect Qiongzhou with His Royal Highness the Regent, and Gongguan will not allow any evil sect to be presumptuous in Dayan, let alone sit idly by and ignore the safety of the people, I will not kill a good person by mistake, nor will I let go of any demon Dao, you don't have to be afraid of me." ”
"She said that she is the Taoist of the palace, the royal palace!" someone whispered.
"Does she have proof?"
"But the regent didn't refute it?" everyone turned their eyes to Nangong Yi again.
Nangong Yi looked at Hua Yan, and Hua Wei deliberately avoided his gaze.
Nangong Yi was in a complicated mood, she said that she was a Taoist priest in the palace, who could not only calm the scene but also restore the people's confidence in the court, and she was helping him, which really surprised him.
She was angry with him for unscrupulous means, and she was willing to help him appease the people with all her heart, this child was tough on the lips, but in fact he was very soft-hearted.
"How can we believe you?" a woman suddenly asked in a shrill voice, "Even if you come, will you be able to give back my son's life!"
As she spoke, she threw a basket over, which was full of yellow mud, and Hua Wei turned her head to dodge, but the robe was still stained by the mud.
"You people are so unreasonable, you forgot to ask my master to send sacrifices, and now you want to hang him! You yourself blindly believe in the wrong person, and you blame others afterwards, you deserve to die!" The young man beside her became angry again, shouting at the top of his voice.
"What did you say, stinky boy!?"
Hua Wei was upset for a while, raised her hand to transport her spiritual power, and a golden light lit up in mid-air, the light exploded, and a giant sword emerged from the void, Hua Wei held the hilt of the sword and swept it gently, the dark blue spiritual power swept away like water lines, and the temperature above the mansion dropped suddenly, like a cold winter is coming.
The cold air hit their faces, the cold wind was fierce, and the people were immediately dumbfounded and silent.
Seeing that both parties were quiet, she said slowly: "You don't have to doubt my identity, if I have bad intentions, none of you will have the life to get out of this place today." I'm not here from Chang'an to kill innocents indiscriminately, I will protect you, whoever will harm the people, I will kill him first, so you should also be obedient to me, don't make trouble for me, understand?"
Everyone looked at her in horror, but after she said this, it was amazing who didn't bother more.
Hua Wei sighed, sometimes it is better to speak well than to be tough, save more nonsense, and everyone still doesn't appreciate it.
Hua Yu fed the people who were like frightened birds, and the rest of the matter was handed over to Nangong Yi, and she followed the rest of the Taoist priests to Songyue Daoist.
Soon it was time for dinner, and Xibai came to the smashed Taoist temple to invite Hua Wei: "Chief Ikebana, Your Highness invites you to go and eat." ”
Hua Yu didn't want to go, but she wanted to discuss with him about leaving tomorrow as soon as possible, so she still went.
——
Nangong Yi sat at the table and waited for her, Hua Yu nodded at him, and sat down to eat without saying a word.
"Ikebana is long. ”
"Don't say anything, Your Highness, if you have something to say in a moment. Hua Yu quickly interrupted him.
Nangong Yi was blocked for a moment, but he didn't stop, and then said: "I know that Chang is angry, but isn't our agreement not to make friends with evil sects?"
"So?"
Nangong Yi picked up the wine cup, handed it to her, and said seriously: "So this king wants to compensate the Taoist chief, and ask the flower Taoist to forgive this king's selfish schemes, and this king is willing to try his best to remedy it." ”
Hua Wei finally put down the chopsticks and looked up at him, those gentle eyes were full of sincerity, his complexion was actually very poor, and he had to deal with the local officials to appease the people, looking tired, but resolute, there was a big meaning that she would not put down the cup if she didn't speak, Hua Wei admitted, she immediately softened.
"Let's leave here as soon as possible and go to the next city, go to one more place, one less Taoist temple will be destroyed, and finally go to Qiongzhou City, find the Qincha team, and escort the Qiongzhou Assassin Shi to Chang'an, how about it?" she asked.
"The Taoist chief is very right. Nangong Yi smiled at her.
Hua Yu lowered her head and pulled the plate, and said in her heart what she was doing, her own affairs had not made any progress at all, and she was still outside to clean up the aftermath of King Huai.
Hua Fei, Hua Fei, your heart is big enough.
