Just as the common people were about to disperse, a group of officers and soldiers rushed over on the other side of the street, and the commander led by him shouted loudly: "Those who rob the imperial court for disaster relief will be killed!" ”

The soldiers brandished long knives and slashed at the unarmed civilians, and many of them were immediately lying in pools of blood.

Gu Zhou's eyes were about to split, and he shouted loudly: "Stop, stop......"

But the soldiers didn't listen at all, they just cut down the people.

"General Ji, stop them."

Ji Yunchen's seven orifices were smoking, and he was about to rush up to stop him.

"Don't ......," Jiang Wanning hurriedly stopped.

But Ji Yunchen has already acted.

The ordinary people who were already in a panic thought that Ji Yunchen and the others were going to kill them, and some people shouted angrily: "What Gu Qingtian, they are basically a gang, and the officials are all the same." ”

"If you don't let us live, we'll fight with them to the death."

As a result, Ji Yunchen and others were besieged by the angry people.

All around were the cries and screams of the common people, screams, swords, and blood......

Gu Zhou's eyes darkened, he had imagined countless possibilities, but he didn't expect the situation in front of him.

The scene has gotten out of control, Rao is he has always been calm, self-controlled, and resourceful, at this moment, there is nothing to do except be sad and sad.

Sou......

In the midst of the noise, there was a slight sound of breaking wind.

Jiang Wanning's pupils constricted, and a sharp arrow was shooting towards Ji Yunchen, who was entangled by the common people.

"Ji Yunchen be careful."

At the moment of crisis, Jiang Wanning called her by her name.

Ji Yunchen turned around and saw a sharp arrow coming, one dodged the arrow sideways, and the sharp arrow hit the people behind Ji Yunchen.

Gu Zhouzhu saw this scene and stared at the window of the second-story building on the side of the street: "Mo Yu, Gao Shi pulled him out." ”

Without hesitation, the two of them flew up and swept towards the building.

Jiang Wanning's brain was spinning fast.

It seems that someone is going to take advantage of the chaos to kill Ji Yunchen, and I don't know how many people they ambushed.

No, the situation must be stabilized immediately.

"Xiao Pan, take the firecrackers." Jiang Wanning shouted at Xiao Pan below.

"My lord, I will capture the thief and capture the king first." Jiang Wanning stared at the commander who was riding on horseback not far away, and commanded his subordinates to slaughter the people in a hoarse voice.

Gu Zhouzhu already understood her intentions and nodded.

Xiao Pan received the order and immediately ran to the carriage, and after a while he fetched firecrackers.

"Dot." Jiang Wanning said.

"Bang ......"

A loud bang exploded in the crowd, and everyone who was shocked was stunned, and subconsciously looked up to find the source of the loud noise.

Gu Zhouzhu seized the opportunity and pointed with his hand: "Ji Yunchen, take down that commander." ”

Ji Yunchen stepped on the carriage, and after a few ups and downs, he arrived at the commander's side.

Seeing that someone was attacking him, the commander swung his sword to block, but how could he be Ji Yunchen's opponent, Ji Yunchen unloaded his sword with only one move, and the long knife rested on his neck.

All this happened between lightning and flint, and by the time those soldiers reacted, their own commander had been held hostage.

"Put the knife down for me, or I'll kill him."

Ji Yunchen exerted a little force, and blood immediately appeared on the commander's neck.

The soldiers did not dare to make a mistake and put down their knives one after another.

The people are also confused, what is the situation? Why did His Royal Highness the King of the County from the capital get involved with the defenders?

Gu Zhou stopped holding Mo Yu just now and searched out a small bow and crossbow from the building, and said in a loud voice: "Just now, someone was hiding in the houses on both sides of the street, taking advantage of the chaos to assassinate this official and His Royal Highness the County King, what did they want?" ”

Gu Zhou stopped and glanced at everyone, his sharp eyes seemed to be looking for a possible killer in the crowd, and the anger in his tone was even worse: "His Royal Highness the King of the County and Qincha, who was ordered to provide disaster relief, died here, who suffered?" Who instructed? ”

"It's you who suffer, it's the people of Dengzhou, someone will report it when the time comes, it's the people who grabbed the grain and killed His Royal Highness the King of Qincha and the county, and then you all become a mob, and the city of Dengzhou will be a river of blood...... Maybe you won't be able to wait for the day when the court will deal with you, because if you continue to make trouble, you won't be able to get food, and you will already starve to death. ”

After a pause, Gu Zhou stopped and said, "Who is the beneficiary?" The people who benefited were those who hid the grain and desperately raised the price of food, because the Qin Cha died, and no one could stop them, perhaps, the people of Dayuan who were eyeing outside the north city gate also benefited, they wished that the city of Shanzhou would be in chaos, the more chaotic the better, and they would be able to take Dengzhou effortlessly. ”

"Therefore, now, those who still want to live will disperse immediately, and today's events, this official will definitely give an explanation to the people of Dengzhou."

Someone in the crowd shouted, "How are you going to explain how you want to explain so many people who died today?" ”

"Today's fault is not yours, but ...... him" Gu Zhou's hand pointed to the commander who was controlled by Ji Yunchen: "This official will give you a satisfactory result." ”

The commander wanted to plead, but as soon as the word "I" came out, he was interrupted by Ji Yunchen.

"Be honest with me, otherwise the knife in Lao Tzu's hand will open the meat."

The frightened Commander kept his mouth shut.

The man who took the lead in questioning just now said, "Let's go." ”

A large group of young men followed the man away.

Jiang Wanning gave Xiao Pan a look, and Xiao Pan understood and followed.

Seeing that some people had left, the others had also dispersed, and they were scattered in a moment.

Gu Zhou stopped the grain cart, stood still, and stretched out his hand to Jiang Wanning, his eyes clear and gentle.

Jiang Wanning hesitated for a moment, but still held his hand and got out of the grain truck.

Ji Yunchen escorted the commander over, and his soldiers immediately took over and controlled the people.

"Are you General Lu's subordinate?" Gu Zhou stopped asking.

The commander was no longer arrogant as before, and explained eagerly: "Lord Gu, the last general is Duan Lei, the commander under General Lu. The government of Dengzhou asked General Lu for help, saying that the people were robbing the imperial court of disaster relief food, and General Lu sent the last general to suppress the mob. The last will do what he is told. ”

Gu Zhou stopped sneering, and his eyes became deeper and colder: "From the time the people surrounded the grain cart to the time you appeared, it took less than half a pillar of incense before and after, Commander Duan, you came really fast." ”

In this short period of time, a series of procedures such as getting the news from the Dengzhou Mansion and asking General Lu for help, and sending Duan Lei to General Lu have been completed, is it possible?

Unless, Lu Yiming and the government of Deng Zhou had long expected that there would be a grain grab.

And Duan Lei had been waiting nearby for a long time, planning to take advantage of the chaos to attack.

It may be that Duan Lei didn't expect the situation to be brought under control so quickly, so he had to appear in advance, even if there was no riot at the scene, he still ordered the slaughter of the people.

What is the purpose?

Give him a dismount, or create an assassination opportunity for someone lurking in a building next to the street.

Ji Yunchen is the most likely person to become the next commander of the Northern Expeditionary Army.

After killing Ji Yunchen, the north will still rely on Lu Yiming and An Pingbo.

It's really a blatant calculation that can't be more explicit.
