Chapter 30: Panic
The vast imperial city is already panicked, and the hundreds of ...... on the city wall Faces vary...... The expression is hideous.
This is all an order of the new emperor, and no one dares to spread rumors anymore, and even the slightest word related to it will be executed on the spot by the parade soldiers, who would rather kill a hundred by mistake than let one go, because if they do not, then they will be on the wall.
Bang bang bang.
The parade soldier banged on the wooden door of a room.
"The people inside hurry up and get me out!" His tone was unkind.
The people in the house walked out trembling slightly.
"Your Excellency...... You...... Do you have anything to say? "He was terrified.
"See for yourselves, what is this!" The parade soldier pointed to an abandoned iron pot, which was still on fire, and seemed to be burning something.
"This ...... This is the leftover firewood burned at noon, and I see that there is some wood at home, so I am going to burn it into charcoal to smoke dried fish. The people said cautiously.
"Smoked dried fish with charcoal?" The parade soldier frowned.
"Yes...... Yes. The people quickly replied that he did not know what he had done wrong.
"Why are you burning something outside the house, you're showing it to others! You're alluding to that rumor!" The parade soldier said.
"No...... No, I just put it outside because this smoke will smoke the children at home, and it really has nothing to do with the emperor's rumors. The people quickly denied it.
"I even knew that it was the emperor's rumors...... Looks like you know it well. The Ranger said.
"No...... No...... No. The people panicked.
"Arrest him for me, the emperor said, all those who know have spread the theory of the people!" The parade soldier said.
"Don't, don't, my lord, I'm old and young, my lord!" The people knelt down directly, he kept kowtowing to the parade soldiers, he really couldn't be arrested, there were still wives and children at home, he was the only pillar of the family, if he was taken away, I really don't know how this family could survive.
"Take it away for me!"
The parade soldiers did not dare to show mercy, because this was the emperor's ruthlessness, and he had to listen to the emperor.
"Daddy!"
A little girl ran out of the house, crying and running to the people who were kneeling and kowtowing.
"Yaya, what are you doing here! Get me back!" The people were terrified and terrified.
"Don't, stinky things, go away, don't take away Daddy, you are all stinky emperors, and you are all stinky court people!" The little girl's little fist hit the parade soldier.
Hearing the abusive words of the little girl, the people looked desperate, and he hurriedly pulled the little girl away.
"Yaya, get back for me, go back and hear!" The people slapped the little girl a few times, and then pushed the little girl away.
"Woo woo, daddy hit me, daddy beat me." The little girl fell to the ground and began to cry.
"My lord, I'll go with you, I'll go with you."
Suddenly, the people began to beg the parade soldiers to take him away.
“…… Take this Diao Min away. The captain gritted his teeth and gave the order, he did not mention the little girl, and the kneeling people were even relieved.
The soldiers on the parade had their eyes closed, and they did not dare to look at the little girl, nor to listen to the little girl's sad cry.
……
In an antique attic, four women and a man were sitting at a round table and talking.
"You're driving the new emperor crazy." Qingsi said to Ye Lingyun.
"Now he has made the whole Vast City lifeless, and the people are panicking." Red Makeup said.
"Actually, I didn't expect his reaction to be so big, but as far as my purpose is concerned, he is following my wishes, but it's just ......" Ye Lingyun paused.
"It's just that you're sorry for the lives of those who died." Youxiang said for Ye Lingyun.
“…… Yes. In this regard, Ye Lingyun has always felt a little guilty.
"Young master, you don't have to blame yourself, the great cause will be accomplished, and there will inevitably be some victims, they are just taking the first step for the sake of a better northern country." The maid Mei'er comforted.
"I can't see that Xiao Meihua is so comforting now, I thought you would only play double knives." Red makeup teased.
"Hmph." Mei'er snorted, she was originally also a member of "Xiangyun", but she left the organization and became Ye Lingyun's maid, it is said that this was arranged by the owner of "Xiangyun".
"Now that we have completed the affairs of Vast City, we will go to Canglan City next, and we will set up camp in Canglan City." Ye Lingyun said.
"Canglan City...... It's so far away, and it's so cold, can I not go? Red Makeup stretched her waist lazily, she was not an extremely powerful warrior like Qingsi and Youxiang, her weapons only had three things: disguise, poison and beauty, in addition, she was just an ordinary woman, but it was only by relying on these three weapons that she became the top three assassins of "Xiangyun".
As an ordinary woman, it's normal to be afraid of the cold.
"Okay, okay, I'm kidding, I can't go, huh." Seeing the other four people looking at him with strange eyes, Red Makeup had no choice but to say helplessly.
"Lingyun, why are we going to Canglan City?" Qingsi asked.
"Canglan City itself is relatively remote, the imperial court is not easy to control, and it has had many rebellious forces within it, which is very suitable for us to start, after all, the purpose of Little Master Lingyun is to become a huge rebellious force, am I right? Little master. Youxiang on the side hooked her finger at Ye Lingyun, she seemed to be teasing Ye Lingyun.
"I'm not asking you." Qingsi said to Youxiang dissatisfied.
“…… Yuka is right. Ye Lingyun was also surprised, he knew that Youxiang was very wise, but he didn't expect her to understand herself so well.
"And Qingsi said that the new city lord of Xueluo City is a person who thinks about the people and the common people, Canglan City and Xueluo City are the closest to each other, I hope to have a good talk with him, if he is really as Qingsi said, then he will definitely help us and become a great help for us, after all, Xueluo City is the most powerful town in combat." Ye Lingyun said.
"Hmph, it seems that Lingyun you have already planned it." Red makeup said lazily.
"Hmm."
"I hope I can serve until the day you ascend the throne, young master." Mei'er said suddenly.
"Hahaha, then will Xiao Qingsi have to be a concubine then." Yuka broke the silence and took the opportunity to touch the green silk beside her.
"You...... You lustful woman!" Qingsi covered half of her face with her hair, perhaps it was already red.
"Hey! You guys are playing, Qingsi, don't shake your hair, it almost killed me. "The red makeup is as powerful as these two people, and she quickly hides far away.
Ye Lingyun also shook his head when he saw this scene, and he turned his head to look at the sky outside the window.
Soon I will be back soon.
