"Hurry up and report to the police! Report to the police! He wants to kill someone! He wants to kill someone!"
Ye Xinran sat there motionless, looking at Wen Qiao, who was covered in dirt and in a state of disgrace, with no reaction.
"Little brother, you should leave first! This Wen Qiao is not a good person. He relies on the fact that he is a scholar and has some knowledge, and often confronts people. If he can't win the argument, he will beat them. His brother-in-law is a close follower of the city governor. You will suffer if you go against him!" someone kindly advised.
"That's right. It's not worth it to do that for a person like this! If you can avoid it, then hide!"
Ye Xinran was grateful for everyone's advice and nodded, but had no intention of moving.
Soon a group of soldiers arrived. The leading man was strong and muscular, and he rushed over and helped Wen Qiao up.
"Brother-in-law, what's wrong with you?"
"Qian Liu, hurry up, that man actually hit me! My head was broken. Catch him quickly." Wen Qiao said excitedly.
Qian Liu frowned. The city guard had warned him these days to be careful in everything he did. Now, Tianjiang City was the territory of Wucheng Palace, and there were many people in Wucheng Palace, so he should not bump into them accidentally.
A former buddy of his had accidentally run into the hands of the princess's family and nearly lost his life. Now he had been stripped of his official uniform and was looking for a job to do. He didn't want to follow in his footsteps.
Look at the man sitting there, motionless. Although he is just a young boy, he can beat his brother-in-law who is so big. He is definitely not an ordinary person.
It’s better to have less trouble than more!
"It's a turbulent time now, brother-in-law, it's better to have less trouble than more! I'll ask her to compensate you, and let's forget about this matter!"
When Wen Qiao heard this, he immediately became unhappy!
"What do you mean? Your brother-in-law was beaten up, and you're just going to let him go so easily!"
Qian Liu frowned. His brother-in-law was well-educated but his interpersonal skills were disappointing. Seeing people pointing and talking around him, he knew that he was beaten because of his bad mouth.
He wanted to persuade her again.
"I'm telling you, your sister is still at home. If she sees me like this and goes back to find out who beat me up and you didn't do anything about it, she'll definitely make trouble with you!" Wen Qiao said indignantly.
Qian Liu frowned. He was really afraid that his sister would go home and make trouble with him.
After hesitating for a long time, he took a few steps forward and said to Ye Xinran.
"Hey, you hit someone, it's your fault after all, let's go to the City Guard House!"
Ye Xinran raised an eyebrow, "He was the one who started it, trying to hit me! Couldn't I fight back? I just didn't expect that he was such a weakling and couldn't take a beating like that!"
Ye Xinran sat there, crossed her legs, and pouted, but she showed no intention of moving.
Qian Liu frowned and turned to look at Wen Qiao.
Wen Qiao said bitterly, "She was the one who scolded me first! Otherwise, why would I hit him?"
"Oh, what did I scold you for? Tell me!" Ye Xinran sneered.
Wen Qiao was speechless for a long time before he stammered, "You are blaming me!"
Qian Liu frowned, a little impatient.
At this time, an officer came over and whispered something to him, and Qian Liu frowned even more.
Wen Qiao didn't know whether to live or die, and he said loudly, "Why, I just said that King Wucheng was a traitor, and you got angry, could it be that you are also a traitor..."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of uniform footsteps coming from afar, and he knew it was the army.
Recently, Tianjiang City has also been taken over by the Golden Armored Army of Wucheng Palace. The Golden Armored Army can be seen coming in and out all day long.
Soon, a team of more than forty people came closer.
The leading general had a hideous scar on his face. He happened to hear Wen Qiao's words and gave the order without saying anything.
"Come here, arrest the rioters who slandered the prince! Drag them back to the barracks and punish them with fifty strokes of the cane."
"Yes!" Two soldiers stepped forward quickly, holding Wen Qiao on the left and right, and were about to drag him away.
Qian Liu was startled, and quickly stepped forward, accompanied Xiaoxin and bowed.
"General, General, he just had a bad mouth, he didn't mean any harm, can you please let him go this time for the sake of the city lord?"
When everyone saw so many soldiers suddenly coming, they were so scared that they stepped back and dared not talk to each other.
General Scar sneered and looked at Qian Liu.
Qian Liu felt cold all over, and the iron-blooded aura of the soldiers on the battlefield was so overwhelming that he couldn't even raise his head.
"You common people can slander the King Wucheng at will! He dares to slander the King so loudly in public. You can imagine what they say about our King in private! Do you think we can forgive him?"
"I, I!" Wen Qiao was also scared at this time. He suddenly remembered that slandering the royal family would result in the confiscation of property and death!
"I don't dare anymore, please let me go! I really don't dare anymore! Qian Liu, hurry up and save me!" Wen Qiao was panicked and begged for mercy.
Qian Liu had no choice. Now, King Wucheng was the emperor here, who dared to say anything! It was Wen Qiao's fault for not keeping his mouth shut!
Wen Qiao saw that Qian Liu had no way out. As he was being dragged away, he suddenly turned to the teahouse on the side and met the people who had just discussed King Wucheng.
Why should I be the only one punished? Why should we all suffer together?
"It's not just me who said it, everyone in the teahouse is saying it too." Wen Qiao shouted.
General Scar frowned, glanced at Wen Qiao, then turned to look inside the teahouse.
All the people who were in the teahouse were shocked. They were sweating coldly. They had indeed been discussing the matter of Wucheng Palace. If they were investigated, none of them would be able to escape. Everyone was afraid, lowered their heads, and hid behind.
He cursed in his heart, "Wen Qiao is a piece of shit! He wants to drag them down with him before he dies."
History is full of cases of people being convicted because of quarrels. They are in big trouble this time!
Seeing them like this further confirmed what Wen Qiao said. General Scar was too lazy to distinguish and ordered, "Take them all away!"
"Yes," the soldiers rushed forward and wanted to take everyone away.
"Wait a moment," Ye Xinran stepped forward helplessly and said with a smile.
"General, we are discussing things normally. We have no intention of slandering King Wucheng or the palace. Therefore, we cannot lump it together with Wen Qiao."
Everyone didn't expect that this young master would not change his expression in front of Scar General and dare to explain. They all gave him a thumbs up in their hearts.
"Yes, General, we don't!" someone whispered.
Others quickly followed suit.
Scar General raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that the young boy in front of him was not afraid of him. He looked more carefully and found that he looked so familiar.
Finally, hey, isn't this their princess? How could she be here dressed as a woman?
General Scar quickly bowed and said respectfully.
"Your Highness the Princess is here. I greet you."
When the soldiers heard this, they all saluted quickly.
"No need to be so polite!" Ye Xinran touched his nose and laughed dryly.
The general continued.
"Since the princess said it's okay, then it must be okay. I will take this person away!"
