Chapter 242 Unity
"Rebellion?" Su Chengnan sneered, pointing at the second prince of the White Bear Kingdom next to him and said, "You traitor, you did it yourself, inviting a wolf into the house! How dare you say such a thing?"
"Someone, tie these two people up for me!"
"yes!"
Qingshan was standing close by, and without saying a word, he swung his knife and cut the tendons of the two men's hands and feet.
"ah--"
"Slave! How dare you?!"
"I'm going to kill you!"
The second prince was roaring hysterically, and as he became more excited, the poison accelerated and he became even more confused.
Han Liping struggled desperately, "You killed the officials of the imperial court, you deserve to die! Does the Ningyuan Palace want to rebel?"
Su Chengnan kicked Han Liping in the stomach, his eyes showing anger, "Han Liping, you traitor, you are not qualified to be the city lord! Look at what you have done, you led these people in, and many innocent people outside died because of it! There are also countless casualties among the officers and soldiers in the city, are you worthy of them?!"
Han Liping had no regrets at all. "If they die, they die. These people should have died long ago. If they don't die, there is no hope of leaving here."
Su Chengnan looked down at him and felt that this man was completely deranged and had no conscience, so he simply turned around and stopped talking to him.
"Miss, what should we do with these people?" asked Yi Er.
"Tie them all up, drag them to the city gate and expose them to the public. Control the situation! This matter must be understood!"
"Yes!" Everyone acted quickly.
…
With the captured second prince and Han Liping, the chaos in the city was quickly brought under control.
Su Chengnan stood on the high platform of the city wall, looking at the suffering of people below, feeling sad.
"What happened today was all because of the collusion between Han Liping and the second prince of the White Bear Country. These people can all testify!" After she said that, she waved her hand and pointed at the wealthy businessmen.
Even if the wealthy businessman didn't like Su Chengnan, a foreign woman, she was still much more pleasing to the eye compared to foreigners, not to mention that she had saved their lives.
"That's right! Miss Su said the truth."
"In order to please the other party, Han Liping not only kidnapped us, but also coerced and bribed us to do
Play for the White Bear Nation! We only have Dayong in our hearts, and we would rather die than obey! Fortunately, Miss Su saved us at the critical moment of life and death. We have no way to repay her, but we are willing to follow her lead! "A tall and thin man came out and shouted.
Su Chengnan had seen this man before. He was a neighbor living not far from Su's house. His surname was Kang and he was known as Master Kang.
When the others heard him say this, they had no choice but to agree with him, and they did not dare to raise any more objections. After all, the person who could easily get rid of Han Liping and the Second Prince was not someone they could deal with. It is better to report this to the master behind the scenes as soon as possible.
"Thank you, Miss Su!"
"Miss Su is our savior!"
"Kill this damn city lord! And the foreigners with evil ambitions!"
"Kill him!"
“Kill them!”
The people in the city had long suffered greatly from Han Liping's actions over the years. Now that the evidence was conclusive, they rose up to attack him, wishing they could tear him apart immediately.
Su Chengnan thought she would hesitate, but standing in this place and looking at the situation of the people, her emotions also fluctuated.
She told the people about the war outside, and everyone was shocked and panicked again. The second prince, who was tied up like a dumpling nearby, howled to the sky.
"Just wait to die!"
"The army is just a hundred miles away. Soon they will crush Ningguta and take over the Central Plains. There will no longer be a Great Yong Dynasty! Hahahaha!"
The people listened to his words and panic began to spread.
He spoke in a broken official language, and Su Chengnan listened with great effort. He sneered, "I can't control the fate of Dayong, but your fate at this moment is in my hands!"
Su Chengnan stepped forward, "The evidence of today's incident is conclusive! It was Han Liping who colluded with the second prince of the White Bear Kingdom. Not only did he frame the people of Ningguta, he also attempted to seize the kingdom of Dayong! Although I, Su Chengnan, am a girl, I have been taught by my father, the Marquis of Valor, since I was a child!"
"The chaos in the city has been resolved, but the crisis is still not over! I need capable people to protect Ningguta together."
"Are you willing to rebuild Ningguta with me? Let's defend the city together!"
"willing!"
"Yes! Yes!"
"Okay! In one hour, I will organize people to open the warehouse in the City Lord's Mansion to distribute food. Every citizen can come and receive a portion. Regardless of whether they are criminals or officers and soldiers, they will be treated specially during special times. From today on, all work will be stopped and all efforts will be made to carry out infrastructure repairs! All managers will come to the City Lord's Mansion for a meeting after one stick of incense! All criminals and criminals who use skills must be registered and uniformly allocated and managed!"
"well!"
"I'm a blacksmith, I can help with the ironwork!"
“I used to be a carpenter, I can fix houses too!”
“I can draw. I can paint.”
This was their first chance to change their fate since arriving in Ningguta, and they had to seize it at all costs.
Some officers and soldiers, realizing that the situation was no longer under their control, tactfully kept silent and let it go, while some fools with sand in their eyes felt that their authority was being challenged.
"Why are you, a woman, in charge? Even if the city lord is guilty, it should be the turn of other masters or people to take charge. Get down!"
"That's right! Come down!"
The City Lord’s Mansion has a group of so-called “think tanks”, but no one dared to step forward at this time. Only a few sporadic voices mixed in the crowd were clamoring.
Seeing this, Su Chengnan didn't take it to heart at all.
Qingshan seemed to want to reveal the identity of Ningyuan Palace, but before he could say it, he was stopped by Su Chengnan.
Su Chengnan continued, "Whether they are criminals or soldiers, as long as they are willing to help the people in the city, I will forgive them all. But if anyone still wants to cause trouble at this time and disturb the people, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
As soon as Su Chengnan said this, those who were originally clamoring were instantly speechless.
"Miss Su is right! The people of Ningguta have suffered enough from Han Liping's oppression over the years. Now that things have finally turned around, we must unite as one and rebuild our homes!" Master Kang stepped forward first and spoke loudly.
"good!"
"good!"
The people below the city answered in unison.
…
After one stick of incense, all the officers and staff in the city arrived.
The secret guards have also completely cleared out and taken control of the City Lord's Mansion.
Su Chengnan invited Mr. Sun and Liang Yaoping over, both of whom were influential and prestigious figures here.
"Whatever positions you held in the past, just continue doing them!" She reassured everyone right from the start.
Everyone looked at each other, and their hearts finally settled down.
"Yes, we all follow Miss Su's orders!"
"Okay then! Go compile a list for me first, quickly, and then transfer the people from Stone Mountain and Coal Mountain to clear the road. The damaged city walls and gates must be repaired as quickly as possible."
"Yes! I obey your orders!"
