Chapter 140: Pressure from all sides

"Go on, a few of you, one less rod, and this king will test you!"

Even when he left the mansion, Liu Qi did not forget to tell Han Dalin and the others that they must "serve" Yang Chu.

This is a king who doesn't want to give face.

If he hadn't beaten him to death today, he wouldn't know why the flowers were so red!

Before he arrived at the door of the courtyard, Liu Qi heard shouts on the street, not alone, but in a group.

"Let go of Master Shi! Let go of Master Shi! ”

When Liu Qi heard this, he immediately stepped out of the door.

The scene in front of him couldn't help but surprise him.

I saw that the street less than 100 meters away was full of people with no end in sight.

They raised their hands and shouted as they resisted the soldiers who stood in their way.

"Let go of Master Shi, Master Shi is a Qing official, he was wronged!"

"Your Highness, look..."

Liu Qi took a deep breath.

Truth be told, it was the last thing he wanted to see.

Whether you're an official or an overseer, the king won't get used to you.

But these people are all ordinary people, and they are the people of Daqing.

Seeing that the prince was going over. Qin Wei hurriedly shouted.

"Protect His Highness the Crown Prince!"

Liu Qi waved his hand behind him.

"Not necessarily!"

After speaking, he walked in the direction of the crowd without fear.

In this crowd, there are also refugees, and they saw Liu Qi's appearance.

"He is the prince, and he is the one who arrested Master Shi!"

As soon as these words came out, the people suddenly boiled.

"Why did you arrest Master Shi? He's a clean official, so let him go quickly! ”

"Can the prince arrest people casually? Master Shi is a good official, and all the people in our city can testify for him. ”

"That's right! With Lord Shi's person, you will never do anything illegal, Your Royal Highness the Prince, you must have misunderstood Lord Shi! ”

......

Listening to the noise of the people, Liu Qi raised his hand and signaled everyone to be quiet.

In this way, back and forth, with the help of the soldiers, after a while, the atmosphere gradually calmed down.

"The people of Jincheng, everyone listen to me."

"What Lord Shi does to you, this king is in his eyes, I don't deny it, he is indeed a good official."

"But now, there is a sin that has something to do with him, and this king must not show favoritism before the law."

"But this matter is still under investigation, and this king will definitely investigate it and give you an explanation."

However, unlike what is played in the TV series, these people are not group performances, even if they are facing the prince, they don't buy it at all.

As soon as the words ended, the crowd became noisy again.

"What kind of investigation, it's clear that you framed Zhongliang! If you don't let Master Shi go, we will go to Qingdu and sue you for the royal warrant! ”

"Presumptuous! This is the Prince! ”

It feels like it was deliberate, and when Jia He said this, the emotions of the people were even more unbearable.

"What about the Prince? Can the prince arrest good officials at will? How about Master Shi, can't we ordinary people see it? ”

"I think it's clearly the crown prince, because Master Shi took in us refugees, and deliberately found a reason to arrest Master Shi!"

"Let go of Master Shi!"

What made Liu Qi feel most uncomfortable was that.

Even among these people, there were people shouting.

"The prince has brought disaster to the country and the people, we don't want such a prince!"

"That's right! No! ”

A light sigh is helpless and depressed.

You can't say, what will happen to these people? Even if someone deliberately incited their emotions, they were still innocent after all.

"Let's go, go back."

To be honest, this is the first time since becoming a prince that I have a sense of frustration.

It's a feeling that I clearly see and understand, but I can't mention a trace of strength.

Back inside the house, the noise outside was still there, even if the door was closed, I could hear it clearly.

Seeing the prince's upset appearance, Qin Wei thought about it again and again, but he couldn't hold back after all.

"Your Highness, with all due respect."

"Otherwise, let's stop for the time being."

"Now, not only are the people indignant, but the emperor has also specially sent overseers, if the investigation continues, I'm afraid that the emperor will really have no way to explain."

Qin Wei was right.

Now for the crown prince, it can be said that pressure is coming from all sides.

There are the people, the local officials, the court, and the emperor.

But after a while, Liu Qi, who was silent, suddenly shook his head with a smile.

"No!"

"Whether it is Yang Chu or this group of people, including what Shi Kailin said to this king today, it has made this king even more determined to investigate Jincheng thoroughly!"

"Now, the more they make a fuss, the more it shows that the person behind them is starting to be anxious, if this king leaves at this time, hmph, it will be in his arms."

"For the time being? Tell you Qin Wei, there is no temporary, as long as this time, if you don't turn over these hidden things, I'm afraid there will never be any more chances. ”

Seeing the prince's determination, Qin Wei couldn't say anything more.

It's not that he doesn't want the prince to continue to investigate, but by now, he can also understand that there must be something wrong with Jincheng.

But now that the emperor has issued an order, if it continues to drag on, he is worried that because at this time, the implicated prince will not even be able to keep his position.

"Qin Wei, you go out of the city now and ask those sentry detectives if they have any findings. In addition, take a good look in Jincheng and see if there is anything that can be used as evidence. ”

"The last general obeys!"

Liu Qi rubbed his forehead with one hand, looking a little headache.

"Qin Wei."

"Tell the people outside the door that this king wants to be alone and quiet, and no one will be seen!"

"Order!"

......

Qin Wei walked outside the courtyard of the mansion gate and happened to see Yang Chu who had finished his cane.

At this time, his buttocks were already bloody and blurred, sticking to the whole pants, and his state was also dying, as if he was about to die.

Qin Wei didn't care about him, let Han Dalin and the others go to protect the prince, and then turned around and walked out of the door.

At this time, Liu Yin hurriedly pointed to the officials beside him.

"Why don't you hurry up and carry the Overseer into the house!"

But at this time, Yang Chu suddenly raised his hand and pointed it in the direction of Liu Yin and Yan Wenhu.

The two of them looked down and listened to him talk like a mosquito.

"Fourth prince, please find a carriage for the lower officials."

"My lord, at this time, why do you still have to take a carriage, you rest first, and I will have someone carry you to the post house in a while."

But Yang Chu waved his hand.

"No... Nope..."

"The lower official is not going back to the post official, the lower official is to... It's to go back to Beijing! ”

Liu Yin and Yan Wenhu glanced at each other.

"Lord Yang, you have just arrived, and it is the most important time to return to Beijing?"

At this time, Yang Chu's eyes suddenly became extremely cold, and there seemed to be infinite anger in his eyes.

He exerted all his strength, word by word.

"The lower official wants to return to the capital, meet the saint, and sue the prince for disobeying the decree! Attempted rebellion! ”

.......

At this moment, Liu Qi was in the house, reading a letter from Qingdu.

It was Yang Mi who wrote it for her.

The letter is not much, but it is shocking.

His affairs have already spread in the imperial court, and at this time the imperial court is about to explode, and there are officials impeaching him every day.

Yang Wenyuan has even discussed with a group of officials, if the emperor does not force the prince to return to the capital, he will be dismissed together.

Therefore, in order to keep the status of the crown prince, Yang Mi finally persuaded that she still hoped that Liu Qi would return to the court as soon as possible.

Forget about others, Yang Mi is one of the few trustworthy people around her.

At this time, Liu Qi suddenly felt a sense of loneliness in his heart.

Although he is the crown prince, he is not omnipotent, and the current Jincheng is like a mess, and he doesn't know where to unravel it.

Knock knock!

"Who!"

His thoughts were shortened, Liu Qi was very displeased, and shouted angrily.

"Your Highness, someone wants to see you!"

"Didn't the king say that? Nobody is seen! ”

"Your Highness, it's me!"

The atmosphere was silent for a few seconds.

After hearing this person's voice, Liu Qi's face changed instantly, looking at the dark wooden door in the night light, as if there was a dawn!
