Chapter 282: All the people intercede
Those people looked at Shen Jue as if they were a dead person.
There is no old age at all.
Shen Jue smiled bitterly, "No matter what, if I can drag you to die together, it can be regarded as a well-deserved death." β
Immediately, he closed his eyes in resignation.
The rumbling stampede was getting louder and louder, and Shen Jue would only make such a loud noise when there were a large number of people in the triad gang.
Unexpectedly, the pungent smell of blood kept coming, and the splashes of blood also slapped on his face, but he still couldn't wait for the cold blade.
Shen Jue opened his eyes slightly, but what he saw was a scene that he couldn't accept no matter what.
The members of the Triad Gang who were originally facing themselves turned their backs at this time, and from time to time there were corpses lying in the crowd, and there was a river of blood under their feet.
King Kang stood in the darkness across his horse, looking at the wharf with blazing eyes, and shouted loudly: "Lord Xie, Shen Bang, is the Lord the king late?" β
Xie Yunyan was shocked, and replied with high morale: "It's not too late, it's just right." β
The few remaining members of the Jade Dragon Gang saw the reinforcements brought by King Kang, and the blood in their bodies boiled in an instant.
They wiped the blood from their faces and snorted, "Damn, fight with them!" β
"Yes, fight! Kill one less one! Avenge your brothers! Avenge your family! β
The tide of the war was reversed in an instant after King Kang led the troops.
The people of the Triad Gang also lacked the control of the two backbones, and they were like scattered sand, facing the army that was constantly rushing towards the dock, and they had no fighting spirit.
The confrontation between the two forces came to an end.
Until the next day, the sky was white, and the people of the Sanhe Gang died and surrendered, and none of them could escape.
Shen Yu ordered someone to tie up Shen Jue's five flowers and wait for Xie Yunyan and King Kang to fall.
At this time, Xie Yunyan had already faded and changed his face, standing in front of Shen Jue with his true face.
Shen Jue sneered, "I didn't expect Xie Yunyan, the first assistant of the dignified cabinet, to be a little white face." β
Xie Yunyan was not angry, and sat lazily on the chair to relieve the fatigue of the whole day.
King Kang snorted coldly, "Bold fanatics, how can you insult the officials of the imperial court?" β
"The only Prince Kang or a weak young man? Qi Guo, dead! Shen Jue squinted at King Kang, and in his opinion, King Kang looked like a teenager who had not yet been weakly crowned.
"Shut up!" Shen Yu shouted angrily.
Ning Shu didn't laugh angrily, "Gang Master Shen doesn't have to be like this, just assume that he is right, but it was the little white face and the weak young man in his mouth who took him down, he lost in the end!" β
Ah Jue glared at Ning Shu viciously, but was speechless to refute.
Just then, there was a knock at the door.
Xuan Feng and Yuan Wu clamped the arms of the city lord Xu from left to right, and escorted the person into the inn.
Countless voices begging for mercy outside the door followed.
"The city lord of Xu is for the people, the emperor's grace is vast, and he begs the court to spare the life of the city lordββ"
When Xuan Feng Yuanwu arrested the city lord of Xu, he did not hide it.
Passing through the streets and alleys of Rongcheng, he took people into the inn so brightly, causing a commotion among the people.
No matter what kind of person the city lord Xu is to the imperial court or to the Sanhe Gang.
Talking about his contribution to Rongcheng alone, it is difficult for the people of Li to stand idly by and watch his "crimes".
Last night's battle seemed to have brought life to Rongcheng, and the flying snowflakes seemed to have eyes on God, telling the grievances of the city lord of Xu.
The people gathered in front of the inn and filled the whole street.
They braved the wind and snow, and the slogans sounded in unison.
"The people of Rongcheng beg the court to spare the life of the city lord!"
The people standing at the front, I don't know who started to kneel first, and the people behind them also knelt down, one by one, setting off a well-ordered human-shaped wave on the entire street.
"If you have to have someone to fight it, use mine!"
"With mine, without the city lord, Rongcheng will return to the half-dead days of the past, what's the point of me not living?"
Ning Shu walked to the window and opened the window, and the strong wind poured into the room, but she didn't care about it, because the scene in front of her had deeply attracted her attention.
An endless humanoid dragon winds on the street in front of the inn, and the people of Rongcheng all wear white foreheads, kneeling in the snow respectfully, fearless of the baptism of strong winds.
The scene of the people pleading, Ning Shu said that it was impossible not to move.
The city lord of Xu, who was tied up with five flowers, knelt quietly in the center of the wing, and next to him was Shen Jue, who was still arrogant.
The two are in stark contrast.
One is really cold-blooded and ruthless, and he doesn't even let go of blood relatives.
Aββ
For the sake of the people of Rongcheng, he is willing to collude with the water bandits with infamy, and he also wants to turn Rongcheng into a prosperous city like Sioux City.
Xie Yunyan coughed lightly, "City Lord Xu, what else do you want to say?" β
Xu City Lord's eyebrows drooped, as if he had expected such a situation today, and his expression relaxed.
"Thank you, Lord Xie, colluding with the Sanhe Gang is purely the work of the subordinate officials, the officials and bandits are connected, and they have committed the taboo of the Qi State, and it is not a pity for the subordinate to die. However, please tell Your Majesty that you have no regrets. β
"Water bandits are rampant, and the towns on both sides of the water are all struggling to make a living. The sailors sent by His Majesty to suppress the bandits were also pretentious and hasty, but had they ever really taken into account the suffering of our people? β
"With the hunger of the people, the belly of the fat water bandits, if the water bandits are not eliminated for a day, ten times the people will sufferββ"
Xie Yunyan's eyes flashed with shock.
The little remote city lord can think about the people, and as the head of the Qi domestic cabinet, he still has the face to question the crime of the city lord Xu!
He felt a deep sense of shame in his heart.
He glanced at King Kang with a sad face, and King Kang immediately accepted his understanding.
"Hey."
Sighing lightly, King Kang got up and walked to Ning Shu's side and looked out the window.
Hundreds of people still knelt still in the wind and snow.
The tip of King Kang's nose was slightly sour, and Rao did not have such an indescribable bitterness when he was sick in bed.
"This king is Prince Qi Guokang, Chu Huailian, fellow villagers, please get up first and listen to what this king says."
Ning Shu silently stepped back, stood beside Xie Yunyan, raised her eyes and took a deep look at King Kang's back.
He was thin and weak.
But at this moment, he seems to be full of infinite power and the light of the righteous path.
The people heard that it was the prince from Kyoto, and they couldn't understand the court situation, but the word "prince" was a noble person under one person and above ten thousand people in the hearts of the people.
They suddenly boiled with excitement.
"Lord Wang, City Lord Xu is a good personβ"
"Lord Wang, the city lord of Xu is all for the people!"
"Lord Wang, although the law is unforgiving, the city lord is really a good official who is dedicated to the people!"
King Kang lowered his eyes and raised his hand, and shouted out of nowhere:
"First be quiet, please listen to the words of this king, Lord Xu is a good official, this king and his father are both in their eyes, he will not die!"
