Yuzhu grabbed a handful of silver melon seeds from her purse and stuffed them into Lao Suo, which was counted as Lantern Festival money, and in the old couple's thousand thanks, she and Ziyu followed the county lord to the crossroads.

The four guards blocked the crowd that came and went in a hurry, and protected the county lord and Lord Yue in the middle.

"Brother Wuxian, how did you know Brother Boyan?" Qingluan tilted his head and looked at Yue Wuxian's side face.

From the side, Yue Wuxian's silhouette is like a cut, and his eyebrows and eyes are handsome, which is different from Xiao Boyan's delicate and handsome.

His appearance is more masculine, giving people a sense of toughness and perseverance.

Yue Wuxian smiled and said, "I used to know in Binzhou, and there are many people who are willing to make friends with him. ”

Qingluan: "So, Brother Wuwu has known him since he was a child?" Brother Bo Yan returned to the capital at the age of twelve. ”

Xiao Boyan's father, Lao Xiaoyaohou, lived in the Binzhou fiefdom until after his death, and the family was summoned to live in the capital by the will of the emperor.

In her previous life, after she married him, Xiao Boyan was in charge of hundreds of thousands of troops in Western Xinjiang, so she asked the emperor's uncle for an order on the grounds that it was inconvenient for the newlyweds to be separated for a long time, and asked his mother Anping County Lord to take him to Binzhou to live, saying that it was closer to the Western Xinjiang where he was stationed, so that he could get together with him often.

How did he know that he harbored evil intentions, but he was just looking for a reason to take his mother out of the capital and move her to a safe place to protect him.

I really thought that he was unwilling to separate, but it turned out to be just a scam.

Xiao Boyan made a good calculation, not only imprisoning himself in Binzhou, making his mother as the eldest princess jealous, but also protecting his mother from being held hostage by the emperor, which is really a double win.

In his previous life, he was really stupid, he didn't understand anything, and he didn't understand his intentions until he died.

Now that she can figure out this, it is also because she has been paying frequent attention to the political affairs of the court recently, that she realized that what Xiao Boyan did in her previous life had a purpose.

"I met Xiao Hou by chance, so it's not worth mentioning." Yue Wuxian looked reluctant to talk more, and cut off Qingluan's words.

Qingluan curled the corners of his mouth, blinked his ignorant eyes, and suddenly pulled Yue Wuxian's sleeve and pointed to the colored lantern on a vendor's shoulder, "Brother Wuxian, that glass lamp is so beautiful." ”

Yue Wuxian turned his head to look, and saw a vendor carrying a wooden frame, on which were hung several glass lamps, each of which had different pictures painted on it, which was very exquisite.

Yue Wuxian called out to the vendor, "The store wants to sell these glass lamps?" ”

As soon as the vendor saw a noble man looking at the lamp, he immediately nodded, "Naturally, it is for sale, which one do you want to buy?" ”

Yue Wuxian looked sideways at Qingluan and said with a smile: "Aman, come and see, which one to pick?" ”

Qingluan walked over and pointed to a beauty lamp, "I want this one." ”

Yue Wuxian untied the lamp from the wooden frame and handed it to Qingluan, "Take it, there is an oil candle in it, don't touch it." ”

Qingluan smiled like a flower, and took the thin stick that picked up the lamp, "Thank you for not hurting my brother." ”

Yue Wuxian gave the merchant a piece of silver and told him to leave.

Along the way, Qingluan carried colorful lanterns in parallel with Yue Wuxian, and the lights reflected the delicate face, which made pedestrians pay attention frequently.

On a moonlit night, a girl with a lantern in a bun like a flying kite, bright like the moon, like a laurel fairy.

When they reached the crossroads, the crowd in front of them was stopped by hundreds of Jin Wuwei, and many people had already gathered at the crossing.

"Everyone is under scrutiny! If there is any disobedience, it will be punished as a fellow murderer! ”

Jin Wuwei set up checkpoints to check the people who went out of the street one by one, and only after checking them one by one could they be released.

However, the children of the prominent family did not buy it, and as a result, they inevitably shouted and scolded.

As a result, more and more people gathered at the intersection.

The people in front didn't let them go, and the people in the back didn't know the reason, so they still rushed to the intersection one after another, and some people were in a hurry and couldn't help pushing each other.

"Oops! Don't push it! Stepping on people! ”

"Fuck! Squeeze what squeeze! Your burden has poked Lao Tzu! ”

"Why don't you go ahead! What are you doing there? ”

There are young students who are not afraid of big things, and deliberately coax and push the people in front.

For a while, the crowd was crowded together, and the lantern in someone's hand fell down and suddenly ignited, causing a riot in an instant.

"Let's go to the water! Let's go to the water! Someone screamed.

Suddenly, people pushed and crowded wildly, and Qingluan and the guards were scattered at once.

Yue Wuxian, who was beside her, hugged her, protected her in his arms, and directly slammed his palm into several people who crashed into her.

However, a steady stream of people poured in like water.

"Yuzhu! Purple Jade! Qingluan exclaimed.

The two maids were also scattered by the crowd, and they did not know where they were taken.

She had never seen such a frantic crowd, crowded and trampled without hesitation.

There were people who fell and screamed, more women screamed, children cried, and others shouted the names of their loved ones.

Qingluan was stunned, his hands tightly hugged Yue Wuxian's neck, and the glass lamp in his hand had long since disappeared.

"Don't be afraid!" Yue Wuxian whispered to comfort her, hugged her a few vertical jumps and jumped to the other side of the drainage ditch, which was against the wall of the fang, and there was a ditch barrier, and the crowd could not squeeze here.

However, a ditch in front of him was also full of people, and the adults made the children cry, so it was not miserable.

"Alright, it's okay." Yue Wuxian gently patted Jianing's back, "Let's wait for the others to disperse before leaving." ”

Qingluan was shocked, and it took a while to react, he was still hanging on Yue Wuxian's neck, and he couldn't help but let go of his hand in embarrassment.

"Yuzhu! Ziyu ......" she shouted to the crowd on tiptoe.

"They'll be fine." Yue Wuxian stretched out his hand to insert the hairpin that was about to loosen on Qingluan's bun, and comforted him softly.

The crowd grew more and more crowded, and some people climbed through the ditch to the corner of the wall.

I saw that the intersection was already crowded with people, and flames were ignited in several places, and the people in front ignored Jin Wuwei's obstruction, broke through the checkpoint, and fled, but most of them were still crowded in the crowd and in a dilemma.

Qingluan couldn't help but scream when she saw a child and his mother disappear from the crowd.

Yue Wuxian took her into his arms and pressed the palm of his hand on the back of her head, preventing her from looking up again.

"You go save her! Go and save her! Qingluan screamed as he tugged at the hem of his shirt.

But she also knew in her heart that even if she called dozens of people, she couldn't do anything.

It was terrible, many living people were trampled to death, and she couldn't do anything about it as she watched it.

The fear in her heart gave her the illusion that she was the culprit.

She didn't know why things had developed like this, and she didn't know that the death of Fang Xiao would cause many people to be martyred.

After a long time, Qingluan kept his head buried in Yue Wuwu's chest, not daring to look at the bloody corpse on the road, only holding on to this murderous killer leader in a daze.

Until Xiao Luo and Yuzhu came with the guards.

Xiao Luo looked at Yue Wuxian, his face was as cold as ice, "Lord Yue, hand over Jianing to me." ”

Yue Wuxian didn't speak, his eyes glared at him lightly.

"Is the county lord frightened?" Yuzhu's hair was scattered, and the two of them came over with Ziyu and took over the county lord from Yue Wuxian's hands.

"Thank you, Lord Yue, for your protection." Yuzhu said to Yue Wu gratefully, "Let's take the county lord back to the mansion." ”

Together with Ziyu, she helped the county lord into the carriage, which was driven by Wei Shixi, and soon walked away.

On Suzaku Street, all kinds of blood-stained shoes and clothes are scattered all over the ground, scattered goods are scattered like garbage, and the blood stains on the road and the people lying on the ground wailing all indicate that a human disaster has occurred here.

On the night of the Lantern Festival, hundreds of people were killed and injured on Suzaku Street, which caused the ministers of the DPRK and China to write letters to pursue the guilt of Jingzhaofu and Jin Wuwei.

"However, if a prisoner is arrested, he will mobilize the people of the whole capital to suffer this catastrophe, Jin Wuwei and Jingzhao Mansion will not be able to escape the blame, and the relevant people must be severely punished!"

Pei Zuoqian and dozens of ministers submitted an excerpt to the emperor to impeach Yin Liu Mu, the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture, and Lin Baicheng, the general of the Jin Wuwei Left Guard.
