Shao Lin was shocked, and had to admire Lin Haotian's agility, they didn't hear anything, if it wasn't for someone coming to report that there were people making trouble outside, they wouldn't have noticed that there was chaos outside the house.

Shao Lin replied: "My lord, it is the people's livelihood in the city, and General Yang Xiu and General Dong Sheng have already dealt with it." ”

"Why didn't you report it to me?"

"The guards guarding the door came to report, but for fear of delaying the rest of the adults, the two of us stopped them. ”

"En!" Lin Haotian responded, picked up a piece of clothing casually, stood up, and said, "Let's go!" ”

Shao Lin persuaded in a low voice: "Let General Cheng and them deal with the small things, they have been traveling long distances for several days, and the adults have not slept well for a few days." ”

Lin Haotian felt deeply heartwarmed, smiled leisurely, and said nonchalantly: "I can still bear this little bit of suffering, let's go!"

Seeing that he insisted on going, Shao Lin had no choice, so he took more than 100 guards and followed Lin Haotian to the outside of the mansion.

The situation outside the City Lord's Mansion was not as simple as Shao Lin said, at this time, there were at least more than 10,000 people gathered on the streets, and it was more than 30,000 Jin troops who confronted them. The people of Chiguo were excited and shouting, Gu Liangyun, Yang Xiu, and Dong Sheng were shouting loudly, but unfortunately no one listened to them at all, and their voices were completely drowned out by the roars of the people.

Lin Haotian was about to separate his soldiers and go outside to take a look at the specific situation, Chu Lianyu came over from the other side and said helplessly to Lin Haotian: "The trouble during the day has come to the door so quickly." ”

Glancing at him, Lin Haotian didn't say anything. Drink away the soldiers of the Jin Army in front, pass through the crowd, and slowly walk to the front of the Jin Army formation.

"My lord!" saw Lin Haotian. The soldiers of the Jin Army led by Shao Lin, Yang Xiu, and Dong Sheng intervened one after another.

Hearing that it was Lin Haotian who came out, the shouts of the people immediately weakened, and people looked at the legendary commander of the Jin Army, Lin Haotian, with wide eyes.

The people were looking at Lin Haotian, he was also looking around the people, in the dark night, some of the people of the Red Kingdom were holding torches, and some were carrying lanterns. However, there are many people with weapons in their hands, and of course, most of their weapons are hoes, poles, and the like.

Lin Haotian's face was gloomy. He shouted coldly: "What are you going to do? Those who dare to gather a crowd to make trouble in front of Ben Shuai will be killed! Now, you should retreat quickly!"

"It's okay if General Lin wants us to go!" As he spoke, a man dressed as a scholar walked out of the crowd of ordinary people. In his early thirties. He looks white and clean, his body is thin, and he can't help but be weak. He exclaimed, "But the general must hand over the murderer!"

"Yes, hand over the murderer!"

"If we don't hand over the murderer, we will never leave!" the people echoed, shouting and shouting wave after wave.

Lin Haotian frowned and asked, "What murderer do you want Ben Shuai to hand over?"

"The murderer of the whole family of four and four men in the Laifu Teahouse!" replied the scholar in a shocking voice.

What a bold man, he dared to come to the door and ask him for a murderer! Lin Haotian was so angry and funny, he looked the scholar up and down. Snorted secretly and looked sideways at Shao Lin. The latter understood, and immediately approached Lin Haotian.

Lin Haotian said: "This person should be the culprit of gathering the crowd to make trouble, kill him!"

"My lord is inappropriate!" Before Shao Lin could speak, Chu Lianyu had already stood up to oppose it first, and whispered: "Didn't you see it, the people of Wanfang City are very angry now, and if your lord openly kills people, it will definitely intensify the emotions of the people, and it is likely to cause a fight." ”

"So what?" Lin Haotian asked with a sneer.

"A weapon fight of this scale will turn into a slaughter of the city, do you want to see all the people in Wanfang City die?"

"What does the life or death of the red man have to do with me?"

"It's not related to adults, but don't forget, my lord, our goal of this expedition to the Red Kingdom is to plunder the territory, not to leave after the fight, and slaughter a city, I'm afraid that the hatred of the Red people for our country will not be able to die for decades, and I hope that the adults can focus on the overall situation!"

Lin Haotian took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed his anger, and then shook his head slightly at Cheng Jin, signaling him not to do it first.

He looked the young man who looked like a scholar up and down, and then looked at the many other people of the Red Kingdom, and said loudly: "It is reported that the Laifu Teahouse is a gathering place for the anti-party, and the shopkeeper and the guys of the teahouse deserve it, and it is not a pity to die......."

Before he finished speaking, the scholar interrupted: "General Lin, the shopkeeper of the Laifu Teahouse has always been loyal and honest, it is absolutely impossible to be against the party, and he does not have the courage to be against the party, this point is known to the people of all directions, the general hastily made such a conclusion, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince the public, right?!"

Without waiting for Lin Haotian to speak, the scholar said again: "In addition, when your army first arrived at the teahouse, there were more than 20 tea drinkers inside, and these people were all driven away by your army.

Lin Haotian was speechless for a while, and was speechless when asked by the scholar.

Chu Lianyu on the side nodded secretly, admiring that this scholar is not simple, not only is he bold enough, but he is also extremely thoughtful, and he even caught this inconspicuous little detail.

He smiled secretly in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face, pretending to be indifferent, and said in a low voice: "My lord, the red people are not all fools, and they prevaricate against the party, I am afraid that they will not be able to explain it this time." ”

Lin Haotian glared at him fiercely, and secretly scolded Chu Lianyu in his heart which side he was on, whether he was helping himself or helping these red people. He was in a gloomy mood for a long time, but finally softened his tone and said, "This matter...... There is indeed something suspicious, Ben Shuai will send someone to investigate the matter, and then give a satisfactory answer to the people of Wanfang, now, everyone go home first!"

Without anyone else to speak, the young man who looked like a scholar was the first to stand up and express his opposition. He said loudly: "The murderer is mixed in your army, General Lin sent people from your army to investigate and arrest his own people, and there will inevitably be a cover-up in the process, and the investigation may not be completed in the end, right?!"

"That's right, what an investigation, that's your excuse!"

"Golden Dog kills innocents indiscriminately, get out of the city!"

"Golden Dog Get Out......"

The scholar's words once again ignited the anger of the people of the Red Kingdom, and the people shouted one after another, and the scolding became louder and louder, more and more ugly, and at the same time kept squeezing forward.

Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, the officers and men of the Jin army raised their weapons one after another, and the spearhead was unanimous to the outside world, and the battle between the two sides was about to break out.

In the face of these ordinary people of the Red Kingdom, even if there are more than 10,000 people, for the tens of thousands of Fourth Legion, it is just a matter of killing them all. It's easy to slaughter it all, but the next thing is troublesome, as Chu Lianyu reminded, this is likely to fully arouse the hostility of the people of the Red Kingdom towards the Jin State, and the occupation of the Red Land by the Jin State will never be peaceful, and the eight counties of Mubei are not peaceful until now is a living example.

Lin Haotian sighed secretly, no matter how depressed he was in his heart, he had to endure it. He waved his hand at the soldiers on the left and right, signaled people to put down their weapons, and looked at the angry people in front of him, instead of retreating, he took a few steps forward and said earnestly: "This commander hopes that everyone can understand that the Jin army came to Chidi to crusade against rebellion, not to slaughter the people of Chiguo. Regarding the matter of the Laifu Teahouse, Ben Shuai also feels very regretful, Ben Shuai will rebuild the official mansion in Wanfang as soon as possible, and let the official government of Wanfang City investigate this matter, so that everyone can rest assured, right?"

The scholar sneered: "Even if General Lin rebuilds the official government, the officials elected are all your golden people, and there is no fairness at all." ”

"Yes, yes, yes! How can you trust the government of the Jin people?" the scholar said the voice of the people, and immediately received a response from everyone.

Lin Haotian hated it so much that the roots of his teeth itched, this scholar is the trigger of bad things, the culprit who provokes right and wrong, how can he seal his mouth?

Just when he was feeling embarrassed, Chu Lianyu whispered beside him: "My lord, it can be seen that this scholar has a high reputation among the people, so it is better to choose him as the city lord and let him investigate this matter, so that the mouth of the red man will be sealed." ”

Hearing this, Lin Haotian almost spit out a mouthful ......of old blood, it was too late to get rid of him himself, and he was still chosen to be the city lord?
