Wang Wu's expression did not change.
That's right.
Xu Pingsheng took action in front of so many people.
Wang Wu was beaten with thirty military sticks.
If I could still act like a normal person now, I would just walk out.
Then it's exposed.
Wang Wu was helpless, and Zhao Er raised his eyebrows.
"Five, hurry up."
He even helped Wang Wu up: "You can't walk anymore."
The man standing by the executioner seemed to remember something and took out a bottle from the tools he carried with him.
The bottle is not small and there is a bloody smell when it is opened.
Wang Wu frowned: "This is...?"
"This was prepared by Lord Xu. He asked me to put it on Wang Baishou's body."
Wang Wu's face changed drastically. This smell was really not pleasant.
But if you want to look more realistic, you can only apply it to the injured area.
"Don't worry, this is not human blood."
Wang Wu: ...
He and Zhao Er had met many people, so other people couldn't tell what kind of blood it was, but he could.
It's real enough.
At least the people following Xu Pingsheng were unrecognizable.
The man came closer to Wang Wu.
"Wang Baishou, did I spill it?"
Wang Wu's face darkened. He turned around and faced the man from behind.
The man moved his hands and splashed blood directly on it.
Wang Wu sighed and said, "Alright, you can handle the rest yourself, second brother."
"I am injured now."
Zhao Er nodded.
To the end, Wang Wu was helped back by the man who had carried out the execution.
Zhao Er's expression became even worse after the two men left.
Wu Quan was so bold that he actually wanted to do such a heinous thing.
No. . .
This time the decision was made by someone else.
Zhao Er looked back and saw that it should be the man sitting on the dragon throne.
He turned and walked out of the city, intending to pick up the doctor, Xiao Qi and others.
On the other side, Xu Pingsheng took everyone away.
Then he walked straight into the mansion.
As for the rest of the people, Xu Pingsheng did not push them too hard.
If you want to cooperate with him, you naturally have to wait for someone to take the bait.
Hongcheng, outside the city.
Lu Anan stood next to Chu Jinshen, and standing at the city gate were the remaining people of Hongcheng.
The people were overwhelmed with mixed feelings after experiencing this sudden change.
Especially now that his life has been temporarily saved, his relatives are left in the city.
And the city must be burned down early to prevent the spread of the epidemic.
The people of Hengguo believe in returning to their roots.
Now Hongcheng is about to disappear before them, and from now on, they will be homeless.
It's not about wandering around, but about having no homeland anymore.
Lu Anan lowered her eyes.
"Have all the people from Hongcheng come out?"
She didn't like these people very much. It wasn't wrong for people to seek their lives, but...
You can't always do that.
The only pitiful ones here are the shopkeeper and his only daughter.
They should have had a better life.
But now it has ruined Zai Lai Hongcheng.
Lu Anan couldn't help but sigh.
But the rest of the people will not have an easy time either.
They will pay for their sins throughout their lives.
No more freedom.
Of course, Lu Anan would not say these words in front of these people.
After all, this matter was handled in a covert manner.
Commander Liu will take them away after the city is burned.
The speech was prepared early in the morning.
Just say that the epidemic is dangerous and that they need to be sent somewhere first.
Wait until we are sure that they are not infected with the disease before making other arrangements.
The remaining people in Hongcheng can accept it.
After all, they have nowhere else to go for the time being.
Lu Anan looked at Commander Liu standing beside him, and Commander Liu nodded.
"Prepare to set fire!"
The preparations made by General Weiyuan and his men before have now come to their benefit.
They just need to light the fire directly.
After Commander Liu gave the order, the Lanzhou garrison following him took action.
The group first ran into the city and lit the fire in the city.
Then it continued along the road, burning all the way outside.
Only after they came out did the garrison outside the city start a fire.
The fire gradually spread and grew bigger.
The fire was not considered to have started until the entire Hongcheng was engulfed in flames.
The dense smoke was filled with a pungent smell.
No matter how lively the people in this city were, they were all dead in unknown corners at this moment.
The people of Hongcheng who were standing outside the city and saw this scene could no longer bear it.
Some of them felt their legs go weak and they fell to their knees.
Some of them hugged each other and cried together.
Others turn their backs and don't look at their faces.
Commander Liu sighed, his expression somewhat complicated.
Ever since I heard what Lu Anan said.
Only then did he realize that Hongcheng had been serving the bandits for such a long time.
No wonder...
No wonder they have never been successful in suppressing the bandits.
Every time I came to Hongcheng to gather information, I found that there was no news about the bandits.
At first, Commander Liu really thought that these bandits still had some conscience.
They only robbed traveling merchants.
Later I realized something was wrong.
How is it possible that the people of Hongcheng don’t know this?
Those merchants who were robbed loved to get together and talk about their travels.
If there is anything about bandits, I will definitely tell about it.
The people of Nahong City must know this.
Especially the final truth, which was somewhat unexpected to Commander Liu.
It turns out that the origin of this epidemic was actually self-inflicted.
Maybe this is retribution from heaven.
Lu Anan stood aside with a cold face.
She really couldn't empathize with the people of Hongcheng.
You reap what you sow.
If I had known this would happen, I wouldn’t have done it in the first place.
Lu Anan couldn't find any excuse for them.
She just turned around and held Chu Jinshen's hand.
"A Shen, let's go."
After finishing the matter here, they will rush to Yuezhou first.
It is still unknown what Wu Quan did.
The earlier they arrived in Yuezhou, the earlier they could make plans.
The carriage was ready and waiting for them.
Lu Anan greeted Commander Liu.
When he returned, he was asked to directly inform the Lord of Lanzhou that they had already gone to Yuezhou.
Before leaving, Lu Anan and Chu Jinshen had talked to the Lord of Lanzhou.
Since the new emperor wants their lives, they might as well give it a try.
Lu Anan asked the Lord of Lanzhou to write a letter directly, saying that Hongcheng had been burned down.
As for Lord Zhu and General Weiyuan.
They devoted themselves to the service of His Majesty, but unfortunately they were infected with the disease and have passed away.
As for the corpses... since they were infected with the plague, they were all burned in the city.
By then, not to mention his body, even his ashes will be scattered.
"He doesn't have time to deal with us right now."
"After all, heavy snow is coming. By then...it will be difficult for them to even send out troops."
Lu Anan got on the carriage as she spoke.
"By the way, is Yuezhou ready?"
Chu Jinshen followed her into the car.
"It has all been arranged."
