Chapter 291: Not Much Loss

Shadow One: "Yes, Queen Mother, that subordinate will escort you out first." ”

The Empress nodded.

So the shadow and a few people escorted the Queen of the Northern Underworld out of the inn, and after they were placed in a safe place, they took the other secret guards and went straight to the other inn.

The other inns were inhabited by fewer people, and the four of them and their entourage were inhabited, as well as some soldiers who protected them.

When Keichi arrived, he saw that the attack here was weak, as if he was hanging the soldiers here.

Ying Yi suddenly understood that this group of people was coming to the Queen of the Northern Underworld.

At this time, the soldiers of Dongchen Kingdom were busy saving people and fighting fires at the same time.

Fortunately, it has been raining for the past two days, the speed at which the inn burns is not fast, and the fire is not very big, plus there are soldiers who rescue them in time, Lord Lin and they are not harmed.

A few of the guests staying at the inn were fine, but they were scared.

After they arrived, they flew up to the roof, quickly extinguished the fire, and helped the soldiers take Lord Lin and the others to a safe place and settle them, and then they went to another inn.

There are a total of three inns in the county, and this inn is inhabited by soldiers.

The soldiers were very alert, and when the rockets came, they spotted them, so there were basically no casualties.

When they arrived, everyone was fighting the fire and evacuating the people near the inn.

The houses near the inn are basically shops, there are no people, and there are basically no casualties, but the shops have burned down a lot.

Fortunately, these shops are not connected to each other, but are small wooden buildings or brick houses, which have not been affected.

The fire in the three inns woke up the people in the city in an instant, and the people ran out one after another, and some people even came out to help put out the fire.

The prefectural order was also alarmed, and by the time he arrived with his people, the fire had basically been extinguished.

And after Chu Yun saw that the inn couldn't burn down, he jumped down and chased straight to the place where those black-clothed people were hiding.

These people who have not seen the light will be slaughtered with all their might, and he will kill them all.

He actually set fire to the place where the people lived.

If it weren't for their hard work, I don't know how many people would have been burned to death and how many rooms would have been destroyed tonight.

The men were simply frenzied, and he wondered what shady rats were chasing them.

"Ahh

When Chu Yunjin arrived, he saw a man in black pull out an arrow, ready to shoot it, the anger in his heart rose, he pulled out the long sword at his waist, and cut off the man's hand with a sword, and the man suddenly let out a terrible scream.

His voice immediately alarmed the other men in black, and they all stopped shooting and became vigilant.

Chu Yun took advantage of this moment and quickly sprinkled a packet of medicinal powder.

"Ah......hh My eyes. ”

Suddenly, there was a wail, and Chu Yunjin quickly swung out a sword, and in the blink of an eye, he harvested the lives of several people.

"Withdraw."

The leader of the men in black knew that his mission had failed tonight, and he was being chased by others, and after yelling, he fled with the men in black.

"Master."

Chu Yunjin was about to catch up, but it happened that Ying Yi and they also chased after him.

"Catch up, kill them, kill as many as you can."

Chu Yun said in a deep voice.

"Yes, master."

So a group of people immediately chased after the man in black, and his subordinates were merciless and killed with a sword.

There was no mark on these people, and they couldn't find out who sent them, so they were all killed.

Soon, twenty or thirty men in black were killed by them.

The others had already fled from the city, and Chu Yun raised his hand to signal them to chase after him.

"Let's go back quickly."

Chu Yunjin took Ying Yi and them back to turn around, he was afraid that the man in black would use the strategy of diverting the tiger from the mountain.

After coming back, there was no one to sneak attack, so everyone counted the number of people to see if there were any injuries, and at the same time to see if there were any casualties among the people nearby.

There is a physician in their ranks, and if there is an injury, he will treat it.

The county magistrate also brought people here to count and see which shop was burned and where there were no casualties.

By the time everything had been completed, there were no casualties, only a dozen or so injured had been properly dealt with.

The inn can still live, and everyone continues to return to the inn to live.

The inn just has burned-out holes everywhere, and it can still be used to make up for it.

After it was dealt with, it was almost dawn, and Chu Yun didn't feel sleepy, so he found the county order, directly gave him five thousand taels of silver tickets, and sent him away.

They caused the fire, and it is impossible for the county magistrate to pay out of his own pocket to compensate the people.

When the county magistrate saw the five thousand taels of silver tickets, he smiled so much that he couldn't see his eyes, he was so poor in the yamen that he was going to die, and he couldn't open the pot.

This suddenly came five thousand taels of silver, in addition to compensating the losses of the people, at least half of the silver, two thousand five hundred taels, enough for the yamen's expenses for a long time.

In addition, you can buy some winter supplies and distribute them to the poor people who cannot survive the winter.

He has been the county magistrate here for ten years, and he can be regarded as a real breeze on both sleeves.

It's not that he doesn't do anything, but the land here is really barren, the people are poor to death, and the grain grown all year round can't fill their stomachs except after paying taxes.

He also reported the situation here to the imperial court, wanting to reduce the burden on the people.

But after his fold went up, it was like a stone sinking into the sea, and he was never heard from since.

It wasn't until a new emperor was replaced that there was no response to his up, and Emperor Shunde reduced all taxes in their county.

Of course, it is only for three years, and after three years, taxes will still be collected, but a little less.

From the original 50% to 20%.

But this is okay, the people only pay 20% of the tax, and the rest of the food can barely survive, at least no one will starve to death.

After the county commander went back, he collected all the corpses of those black-clothed people and disposed of them in a centralized manner.

Then I also reported the matter here to the imperial court, just kidding, tonight this matter is not simple at first glance, and it cannot be hidden.

And after Chu Yunjin returned to the inn, he flashed back to the space, and seeing that Feng Yunjin was sleeping soundly, he smiled and kissed her lightly on the forehead.

Then I washed up in the space before I hugged her and fell asleep.

When he got up the next day, Feng Yuntian knew that something big had happened last night.

"Why don't you call me?"

Feng Yuntian complained a little.

"This is still something that the husband can handle, don't worry, if I really can't handle it, the husband will definitely call you."

Chu Yunjin hurriedly explained, and he was afraid that she would misunderstand.

The pregnant woman has such a big temper that he can't afford to mess with her.

Feng Yun glared at him, finished breakfast, and came to the house of the Queen of the Northern Underworld, knowing that they were just a little frightened, and nothing else happened, so she didn't complain about Chu Yunjin.

After everyone packed up, they replenished some necessities in the city and prepared to go.
