The farmers hiding in the shadows also spotted these black-clothed people, and rushed towards them with kitchen knives and firewood knives. Zhong Liyu had explained before that if they saw someone coming, they would just drive them away, but they didn't expect that the real eldest prince was right, and someone really came.

The number of bandits was not large, and few of them were practitioners, but just a group of rabble, and soon they were surrounded by the peasants.

This made Zhao Zhutou's face change greatly, he didn't expect that a carefully planned action was intercepted by several farmers, and in anger, he lifted the knife in his hand and stabbed at the farmer who grabbed him, this stab happened to stab the farmer's heart, he didn't even have time to shout, and he died.

Zhao Zhutou didn't even look at him, and continued to look at the other farmer. The farmers, who didn't dare to do it, saw the dead people, and the blood in their hearts was also stimulated, and for a while, the two gangs fought together. In the end, Zhao Zhutou saw that there were fewer people on his side, and his heart was not good, so he immediately shouted: "Withdraw!" ”

After an order, the remaining robbers followed Zhao Zhutou in a panic and sneaked into the night.

These farmers were still about to chase, Zhong Liyu hurriedly opened the door and shouted, "No need to chase, let's take a look at the injured people first." Zhong Liyu said as he personally came over to help the injured man up, and that person was the farmer who had been stabbed in the heart.

Everyone worked together to carry the injured farmers to the empty room inside, and fortunately, there were many apprentices in the Zhong family's house, who came to help the injured people treat their wounds.

When they saw the farmer who had been stabbed in the heart, they shook their heads and said, "He's dead, there's no help." ”

Hearing this, Zhong Liyu was indignant in her heart, she didn't expect that the other party would really send someone to kill them, and even kill someone!

In addition to being angry, Zhong Liyu forced herself to calm down, she went to call out her younger brothers and sisters hiding in the secret passage, and then said: "Now all the affairs of the house are handed over to Zhong Liyue, you can handle it with full authority, and the fourth and fifth and sixth children will go with me." ”

A few children had a bad heart, and hurriedly said, "Big brother, where are you going?" ”

"Ask for an explanation." Zhong Liyu stared in the direction of Canggu City, their Zhong family was not a silent person who was bullied by others.

"But it's not dawn yet...... Zhong Liyu is a girl in the end, and she has an instinctive fear of the dark, and she suddenly bit her lip timidly to speak.

"Fourth brother." Zhong Lixian pulled Zhong Liyu's clothes, Zhong Liyu stopped his mouth, reached out and covered his mouth tightly, and shook his head at Zhong Liyu, "Go!" ”

"Alright, now get ready and go." At Zhong Liyu's request, half of the peasants guarded Zhuangzi here, while the other half dragged the corpse to the yamen at night.

Walking to Canggu City, the sky had already begun to dawn, and a cold wind was coming, blowing the cold heart of the person even colder.

Zhong Liyu led a team of people to the front of the government office eagerly, rolled up his sleeves and began to beat the drum. After a while, the sound of drums spread throughout Canggu City, and they all came to see what was going on, Zhong Liyu said to Rubai: "Go find a few more drums and gongs." "She wants the entire Evergreen City to know about yesterday's events and seek justice for their family!

At this time, Rubai wished that he had two more legs, and it took about half an hour for him to find a gong and a drum. Zhong Liyu did not knock at the door of the mansion, but led a team of people to the street and began to knock and shout: "Everyone be careful, bandits are rampant today, first robbed food, and now they dare to come to the door to commit murder!" ”

His shout accelerated the spread even faster, but in an hour, almost everyone in the entire Canggu City knew about it.

And Governor Li, who is the culprit, is the last to know. He was sleeping in a daze with the concubine's warm fragrant nephrite in his arms, when he suddenly heard the sound of gongs and drums, which startled him and sat up, and said blankly: "What's the matter?" ”

Before the next person could ask, he saw a person stumbling towards this side from a distance, "Master, it's not good." After hearing the voice, the prefect's housekeeper went to inquire, and this inquiry was unbelievable, and the bandits actually came to the door, and this is worth it? He didn't know that the mastermind behind all this was Governor Li, and he thought that there were really robbers, so he was in a hurry.

After all, Zhao Yiyan is not in Canggu City now, if something happens here, what will he do then?

Governor Li was in a hurry, almost fell out of bed, and scolded: "What nonsense in the morning." After speaking, he said to the concubine who was still lying on the bed: "What are you still doing in a daze, you haven't gotten up to serve me to get dressed." ”

When he came to the mansion after some work, he saw that the door was almost full of people.

"Your Excellency, you must be in charge of us." A group of people were noisy, which made Governor Li's head big for a while, he frowned, and hurriedly said, "Go and shut them up!" ”

was woken up early in the morning, and Governor Li, who was already in a bad mood, was in an even worse mood. Wang Quan didn't dare to slack off, and after walking to the door and saying a few words, everyone finally quieted down.

At this time, Zhong Liyu also came back in a circle, she put the body at the door, and said loudly: "Everyone, please see, these five people are the bandits last night, fortunately my family has a farmer, otherwise our Zhong family will suffer." ”

The robbers still had black scarves on their faces, which Zhong Liyu deliberately did not let them uncover, and some things were well known, and it would not be good for anyone to expose them. Now that he has been brought here, it is just a threat to Governor Li, if the other party does not admit it, then he can't help it!

"Oh my God, last year it was the enemy, today it is the robbers, can this year be over?" Someone in the crowd complained, and suddenly, the people complained.

"Yes, the government doesn't care, there is such a big thing, and there is no one in charge."

"Isn't this prefect just ascending to power? Maybe it's not a good thing! ”

"Yes, yes, yes, you should let the prince rectify it well."

……

Everyone immediately began to talk about it

Governor Li listened to what they said inside, and the more outrageous it became, he hurriedly asked Wang Quan to come out and invite Zhong Liyu in.

Before going in, Zhong Liyu suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly asked Rubai to go back and invite Mr. Wei over. After all, the other party is a person who has been a big official in the court, and now the whole family can only rely on him!

Besides, Mr. Wei is considered to be the person of the Four Princes, and the person who deals with them must be the opponent of the Four Princes, and it is just right to use the people of the Four Princes to deal with them. I have to say that Zhong Liyu's brain moved a lot faster than before.

Walking into the mansion, Zhong Liyu arched his hand and said, "I've seen Governor Li's mansion." ”

"The eldest son of the Zhong family, right, when he saw this official, he still didn't kneel." It's all at this time, and Governor Li is still playing official.

"I'm sorry, Zhong was frightened, and he is still a little delirious, what the adults just said, the grass people didn't hear it!" Zhong Liyu deliberately pretended to be stupid.

Governor Li was stunned for a moment, waved his hand and said, "That's it, tell me what's going on with this robber." ”

Zhong Liyu smiled, but without waiting for the other party to speak, he turned around directly and opened the closed door, he moved too fast, everyone didn't react for a while, and he succeeded.

Governor Li's face changed, and he asked someone to close the door, but unfortunately it was too late. Without waiting for him to summon him, everyone spontaneously carried the body of the robber in, and when they saw the corpse lying on the ground, Governor Li's face changed suddenly, these people were the officials he sent to kill Zhongli's family last night.

How is this good? It's just a recipe for stealing chickens.

Governor Li's mind was spinning rapidly, what was the use of these unproductive things? Moreover, the most critical point is that Zhao Zhutou did not come back!

He didn't know that after Zhao Zhutou didn't succeed in the assassination last night, he came back and left Canggu City with his family. He knew the personality of Governor Li, and this matter might all be pushed on him. If you don't leave now, when will you stay?

Governor Li knew that Zhao Zhutou had not returned, and he was angry in his heart, but it was useless for him to be angry at the moment, and said: "I will definitely find out about the robbers, and now I want to carry these corpses down." ”

"Wait." Seeing that Governor Li planned to cover up this matter, Zhong Liyu had already made the worst plan in his heart, and immediately stopped the officials who were about to carry the corpses, and sneered, "Why don't you let everyone see the true face of these officials, so that everyone can learn from them, how about it?" ”

This proposal made Governor Li's face change suddenly, "It's not proper, it's about to be the New Year, the corpse is an unfortunate thing, so don't see it." After saying this, he winked at the servant, who immediately took the body away.

Zhong Liyu snorted coldly, his footsteps moved, but his body moved in front of Governor Li's body, and then turned to look at the group of fathers and villagers outside. "Everyone is from the border city, who doesn't know the origin of these bandits? It must have been people from enemy countries who came to us to burn and loot. How many lives have they taken on their hands, and we want to eat their flesh and drink their blood, how can we be afraid? How do you feel filthy? If I die a few more, I'll just be happy! ”

After he finished speaking, he raised his arms and shouted, and a cheer suddenly sounded outside.

Li Zhifu was not from the border city in the first place, so he naturally didn't understand the anger of the border city people against foreign enemies, but now that they were being used by Zhong Liyu, he immediately raised his arms and cheered, "Open!" Open it! Open it! Open it! ”

Zhong Liyu turned around and looked at it proudly, looking at the man in front of him with burning eyes, his face changed slightly, his lips were white, and the cold sweat on his forehead was frequent, he turned his head to a few officials with a smile and snorted coldly, and scolded angrily, "Don't put it down?" Open it! ”

Governor Li didn't speak, and everyone was drunk by Zhong Liyu's momentum, and they really opened the white cloth on their bodies.

The people watching outside immediately cheered, after all, nothing made them happier than seeing their enemies dead!

Zhong Liyu didn't really want to expose the corpses, she just wanted to remind Governor Li that she knew the identities of these people. It's a pity that the other party has done this too much, and she naturally won't give up. In front of him, there is Zhongli who shields him from the wind and rain, and behind him there are younger brothers and sisters who cheer him on.

He must not lose.

At this moment, Zhong Liyu stood in the lobby, clenching his fists tightly, only feeling that the blood in his whole body was boiling.

Li Zhifu looked at Zhong Liyu standing under the hall, his brows furrowed tightly, why are these people in the Zhong family, brothers and brothers so difficult to deal with. He was worried about a handful of gray hair, but he had to say: "I will definitely find out about this matter, and when the prince comes back, I will discuss with the prince what to do." ”

"Governor Li, I don't dare to go home now, for fear that there will be robbers. Moreover, Governor Li had my brother arrested before, saying that my brother collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country, can you give an explanation together now? Zhong Liyu didn't give him a chance to drag on time, and was aggressive.

Governor Li's pressure bit hard, but he couldn't help it, so he had to say, "I'll let people check it now." Saying that, he summoned Wang Quan over, whispered a few words in his ear, Wang Quan's face changed for a while, he didn't expect that Li Zhifu would send a servant to pretend to be a robber to kill the Zhong family, and that's it, but he didn't succeed in killing, and he was found by others.

Wang Quan complained in his heart, but he still did what he should do, and after he responded respectfully, he hurriedly turned around and left.

sent people to find the family of the deceased, and asked them to pretend to be robbers to falsely accuse Zhong Li of not doing what he promised them, so they went to Zhong's house to take revenge. However, everyone is a sincere person, and they naturally don't want to do such a thing, knowing that this is a big sin.

But Wang Quan, as the right-hand man of Governor Li's side, naturally knew how to persuade these people, but in a few words, these people were convinced, after all, the strong men in the family were all dead, and there was a group of old and weak women and children left.

Seeing them, the corners of Zhong Liyu's mouth hooked up a sneer, and at the same time, Mr. Wei, who had invited him in vain, also rushed over. He naturally knew about what happened last night, but he didn't expect Zhong Liyu, who seemed to be mean, to do such a radical thing.

It's just that he also knows what the four princes mean, although he disagrees a little, but he doesn't stop it. But now that he has been begged to come to the door, if he doesn't make a move, he will be sorry for the Zhong family's kindness to him, and he will also be sorry for his few little apprentices.

As soon as he stepped into the court, he saw Zhong Liyu standing under the hall and confronting Governor Li.

At this time, the family members of the robbers were already kneeling in the hall, and they were all pale and trembling on their knees.

Old Mr. Wei walked up to Zhong Liyu and smiled, "Big Prince." ”

"Mr. Wei, you're here." Zhong Liyu respectfully returned the salute to Mr. Wei, and asked as if unintentionally: "Mr. Wei, you are a big man from the capital, can you tell me, according to the law of the Apocalypse, what kind of punishment will the robber's family receive?" ”

Old Mr. Wei is a smart person, as soon as Zhong Liyu said this, he understood her intentions, and immediately said with a smile: "According to the law of the Apocalypse, the robber's family will be exiled by the Nine Clans, the man will be exiled for thousands of miles, and the woman will be a slave for the rest of her life. ”

Xu Ze's voice was faint, but in the hearts of those who pretended, it was like a bomb, making their faces pale, and the two trembled, you look at me, I look at you, I want to cry without tears, and I can't speak.

Among them, there were those who were timid, and they immediately knelt down and begged for mercy from Old Mr. Wei and Zhong Liyu, "My lord, we are wronged, we are not robbers at all, we are forced." ”
