Chapter 203: No such will
When it was dark, Xing'er and the others came to the woods outside Changzhou Mansion, passing through this forest, in front of them was Changzhou Mansion, as soon as they entered the woods, Xing'er felt a strong murderous aura, and the three of them looked at each other, all of them did not move.
Sure enough, a bonfire suddenly lit up on the dark road, and several piles of firewood burned on the side of the road, illuminating the woods brightly, and a group of ragged officials and villagers, carrying swords and hoes, came out and rushed up, led by a man who shouted loudly: "Kill the demon woman, avenge the dead villagers!" ”
Zhou Boya was secretly happy in his heart, it seems that the rebels learned that the queen mother was coming, and they wanted to kill her, so it was okay to solve her unknowingly, without having to take action themselves. He opened the small door of the carriage and shouted: "Protect the Queen Mother, protect the Queen Mother!" He intended to attract the attention of the mob, and sure enough, as soon as he shouted like this, all those with swords rushed up, Zhang San jumped into the sedan chair after a few leaps, and the pioneer of the car raised his hand high, making these soldiers surrender is a more uncomfortable thing than death, but the stars have an order first, and they can only give their first surrender since joining the army!
Zhou Boya's kung fu is not weak, but he is determined to hide his kung fu, he saw that all the people on Xing'er's side surrendered, so he retreated to the side of his attendant, and glanced at the entourage headed by him, and the entourage understood, and shouted, "Escape, it's a mob, it's important to save your life!" '
When those people heard this, they immediately ran away, Zhang San and the others were in Xing'er, and the others were better off, Zhou Boya paused, pretending to be angry and said: "It's all rice buckets, run away when you encounter something, this official has cultivated you in vain!" ”
Xing'er only wanted to know his intentions, but now his Sima Zhao's heart is known to everyone, she knows very well why these people are coming at her, and the Lord Zhou in front of her has requisitioned land in her name, and there is no reasonable compensation, forcing hundreds of people to death, how can the people of Changzhou not hate her to the bone, and they can't wait to eat her alive?
Obviously, Zhou Boya also knew this truth, he just wanted to borrow the hands of the people to get rid of Xing'er, so he deliberately let his subordinates disperse, even if he was investigated in the future, he could push it all away.
Zhang Sangang wanted to kick open the small door of the sedan chair, but saw a peerless ** open the door, he was stunned, this queen mother is actually a fairy-like figure? And in this stunned time, Xing'er snatched his sword from his neck and looked at him with a smile, "It is said that this palace is a demon woman, you are the first person, just for this, this palace can't let you go!" ”
Zhang San's face changed, some were surprised, some were ashamed, some were disgusted, and he snorted: "Demon woman, if you want to kill, you will kill, don't talk nonsense!" ”
Xing'er was very unhappy with him as a demon woman, but knowing that he was a hot man, she had to hold back the dissatisfaction in her heart, "This palace really wants to know, why are you called this palace demon woman?" ”
Zhou Boya's face turned pale, he looked at Xing'er fixedly, her smiling face seemed to have no look of annoyance, when she snatched the sword in the hands of the mob with one hand just now, her movements were done in one go, she was a practitioner, if this was the case, then things would not be easy to do, what a shrewd person Long Xing'er was, he had already seen a lot, and in the days when she was listening to politics, no matter how big or small, she couldn't hide it from her eyes. Such a sharp woman, once she enters Changzhou Mansion, will definitely find out that Changzhou Mansion is unusual, and then she will get rid of her, I am afraid that it will be too late.
Thinking so in his heart, Zhou Boya immediately took action, pulled out the soft sword from his waist, and roared: "Let go of the Queen Mother!" He rushed over with a sword, called killing Zhang San to save Xing'er, but in fact, the tip of the sword rushed towards Xing'er.
A plain white figure fell to the ground, and with a flick of his sleeves, he was shocked to take two steps back, he stood still in shock, but saw that it was the stunning aunt in the sedan chair, her cold face did not have a trace of smile, only said coldly: "The Queen Mother is safe, and she doesn't need an adult to save her!" ”
Zhou Boya smiled reluctantly: "Yes, it's Weichen who is too nervous." ”
"Is it nervous or is there something else?" Lin Haihai also got out of the carriage and looked at Boya this week coldly.
"Auntie's words, I really misunderstood!" Zhou Boya didn't dare to look at Xing'er, only blindly sneered, and the dozen or so officers and soldiers who pretended to surrender also took out their swords, and the vanguard shouted loudly: "Everyone put down their weapons, the Queen Mother will decide what happens.......
"Bullshit, it's this witch who has ruined our family, brothers, leave me alone, rush up and kill the witch." Zhang San, who was being held hostage, shouted angrily.
The people are all looking around, they are all men of good families, let them kill pigs and cattle, they don't blink their eyes, they can stab them with a knife, but now they are asked to attack their own kind with weapons, if it is not for the extreme grief and indignation, these people will not be able to do it anyway.
"Kill her, don't forget that she ordered the land acquisition and the construction of the imperial mausoleum, how many brothers have we died? Kill her, don't hesitate. Seeing that everyone was not moving, Zhang San couldn't help but feel anxious, and hurriedly shouted angrily.
Xing'er said loudly: "Don't act rashly, regarding the enclosure of the imperial tomb, this palace can guarantee that this palace has never made such a will." ”
"Hmph, so far, you demon woman still want to quibble?" Zhang San scoffed and said coldly.
Xing'er was really annoyed that he opened his mouth to be a demon woman, closed his mouth to a demon woman, and said angrily: "You reckless fool shut up Bengong, Bengong said that no is nothing, what are you, why does Bengong lie to you?" Do you think that you can kill me just by bringing your hoes? ”
"Your people are all gone, and there are only a dozen of them left, and we can trample you to death even if we step on them." Zhang San breathed fire angrily and said flamboyantly.
"Lin Haihai, collect all their hoes, this palace doesn't like people to hold weapons towards this palace." Xing'er smiled arrogantly, let Zhang San go, and smiled at Lin Haihai.
Lin Haihai smiled slightly, kicked the whole person and flew up, everyone only felt that the flowers in front of their eyes, the weapons in their hands were gone, and then looked at it, Lin Haihai didn't know when he returned to the back of the demon woman, and it was their hoes and broken swords that were stepping on his feet.
Xing'er picked up a firewood knife and said with a smile: "You guys are using such a weapon against this palace?" ”
Everyone didn't dare to make a sound, even Zhang San was frightened by Lin Haihai's hand, it seems that this demon woman is not wrong, they are really demons.
Lin Chen rushed out of the woods, in fact, he did not approve of this assassination, but Zhang San was afraid that he would oppose it, and the people would listen to him more, so he tied up Lin Chen and told a group of women that they could not let the adults go, otherwise they would not be able to kill the demon woman.
Lin Chen didn't salute Xing'er, but just glanced at Xing'er and asked suspiciously, "Are you really the queen mother?" ”
"It's like a fake!" Xing'er pointed to the people behind him, in a tone of inquiry, "You instructed it?" Lin Chen said without humility or arrogance: "That's right, it's all my idea!" He used the word "I" as his own name, in his heart, he had already determined that Xing'er was the one who gave the order, but as a courtier, he couldn't reverse ethics, she was a king after all, high up, and could not be offended. Scholars have such pedantic, but the backbone of scholars makes him unwilling to grovel to Xing'er.
Xing'er was about to speak, but saw Ye Che and others rushing out with a group of men, Xiuyuan holding a blood letter, all of which were written by the men with their own blood for Yang Shaolun.
They all knelt in front of Xing'er, Xiu Yuan raised his head and said sadly: "The Queen Mother, the grass people and others are not deliberately offended, from the mouth of the night brother, the grass people learned that this land requisition and tomb repair is not the will of the mother, but there are corrupt officials who falsely pass on the holy decree and enclose the land for mining, and the grass people beg the queen mother to be the master of the people of Changzhou, clean up the corrupt officials, and save the people from fire and water." ”
His generous statement made Xing'er moved, and the men who were present at the assassination were also stunned, this is really not the will of the Queen Mother? Who is so bold that he dares to falsely proclaim the holy decree for the great sin of the nine clans?
Lin Chen looked at Xiuyuan in surprise and asked, "Xiuyuan, what you said, is it all true?" Is this really not the will of the imperial court? But when the eunuch ......announced the decree, he didn't speak again, but looked at Xing'er with a complicated face, he never believed that anyone dared to fake the holy decree, but faintly, he hoped that all this was fake, and the people in power did not abandon the people, but the corrupt officials were in charge, and the emperor was just deceived.
Xing'er looked sideways at Zhou Boya: "Does Lord Zhou know what happened?" ”
Zhou Boya's face was defeated, and he said, "I.... Wechen.... Wechen doesn't know! ”
Xing'er smiled faintly: "Very good!" After glancing at Zhou Boya meaningfully, she said to Lin Chen: "You go and give the order, let the people pick up their relatives, return home, and wait for news." As for the Changzhou Mansion, it has now been controlled by General Yang's people, you don't have to be afraid, if you have any grievances, all go to the yamen to appeal, and this palace will definitely make decisions for you! ”
"Niangniang never said this holy decree, is it from Niangniang?" Lin Chen has been an official for many years, and he is used to seeing the official tone of his superiors, if he doesn't have a word of truth, he won't give up easily, during this time, there are too many dead and injured, as a parent official, he can't save their lives, he is already incompetent, he can't let them die unclear, he is homeless anyway, and cutting off his head is just a life.
Xing'er said word by word: "This palace has never made such an edict, and there is no need to move any imperial tombs, everything in Changzhou, this palace is unaware." ”
There was an uproar, everyone's eyes looked at Zhou Boya, and they were in trouble, but they saw a white horse galloping out of the city, and when they saw Zhou Boya there, they hurriedly tightened the reins, the horse's hooves raised, and stopped in front of Zhou Boya, and they didn't look at the situation in front of them, so they said anxiously: "My lord, it's good that you're here, Lord Wu is trapped in the mine, and the big stone is pressing the entrance of the cave, and we try our best to rescue, but there is no result." ”
Zhou Boya's face suddenly changed, and he turned pale.
