Since there were important things to do next, everyone ate in a hurry.
Feng and Qian had been taken care of by everyone along the way, and now they finally found a place where they could help.
He immediately volunteered to help, as Leng Yue was worried about who to send to accompany the mother and daughter back!
There is not a single male in the girl's family, but here, it's the opposite, there are many males.
Now, the problem has been solved. Leng Yue breathed a sigh of relief, and the secret guards also breathed a sigh of relief.
It's okay to let them kill someone and complete a mission.
Escorting two women home, what’s the big deal?
If others feel awkward, they will feel awkward too.
Eleven also went along and was responsible for identifying the place and running errands.
On the way back, Tong Shuyi and Gulinar couldn't stop laughing.
They greet everyone they meet, and they wish they could use a loud speaker to shout that they want to announce to the whole city that their daughter is getting married.
The people were talking about it, and some of them were gossipy, and couldn’t stand seeing others living well, so they said, “Bah!
What the hell are they showing off about!
I thought I had gotten such a great bargain!
Idiot, what a big idiot!
Who is that guy? He is a bandit.
The bandits killed people without blinking an eye, especially the old girl in her family.
She is so old now, it is still unclear whether she can give birth to a child!
Don't be a hen that doesn't lay eggs, or you'll end up in a bad situation.
Either they were beaten to death or their lives were resold.
I guess in the end, not even a corpse will be left.”
When the people around heard this, they all gasped.
"It turns out that the rumors are true. That man is really a bandit!"
At this time, a man with a bruised face and nose behind him said: "It is absolutely true, that man is a bandit.
Look at my face, that bandit hit me.
He beats people up if they disagree with something. He's very vicious!
That old girl is finished, her life is ruined!"
This time there was evidence, and everyone believed it more.
"I told you there's no such thing as a free lunch!
So, that guy really is a bandit!
Then you say, they won’t ask for the one ounce of silver and one pound of flour they gave them before, right?”
This really hits the nail on the head. This is what is most relevant to them and what they care about most.
There are quite a few people here who took silver and flour.
Before, when I heard that the main person was selected, I would get silver and flour when I went there.
When everyone heard this, they thought, isn’t this just given for free?
Based on the principle of "if you can get something for nothing, you should try it all", a large group of people came.
The girls of those gossipy families also went there and took money and flour.
The most important thing is that all the white flour is eaten into the stomach.
Where are they going and what are they asking for?
He said vaguely: "No need to pay it back!
They gave it voluntarily, and we didn't ask for it.
Besides, they are just trying to grab an order.
How much money do you want? How much flour do you have?
They still like the little bits and pieces we have. The little bits that leak from their fingers are enough for us to eat for a year."
Everyone felt that what they said made sense and felt relieved.
Then I heard someone shouting in the crowd.
“Here it comes, here it comes.
The army is coming!
The army is coming! "
Those gossipers and the people around them panicked.
"What?
The army is coming, it’s time to fight a war!
Run, run!
Everyone, run for your lives!"
While running, he complained, "What the hell is this day?
First the bandits came, and now the army is here.
Are you going to let people live? "
The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously.
He just yelled out, "Everyone, stop, don't run.
The army must be here to suppress the bandits. We haven't committed any crime, so why should we run away?
On the contrary, we should stay and watch the show.
By the way, actively cooperate with the army to suppress bandits and provide them with intelligence.
By then, it might be a great achievement.
Not only can you get rewards, but if you do it well, you may even be able to get a high position!
That will be terrible, you will be eating government food and eating the emperor's food!"
The temptation of this last sentence to everyone is really too great.
Just ask yourself, who doesn’t want to be an official and eat the emperor’s food?
He started running back to greet the army and actively provided intelligence.
Even those few gossipers who were cunning and cunning broke through the crowd and blocked the way of Huo Jingxuan and others.
"My lord, my lord, I have important information to provide to you all."
The secret guards' hands and feet are itching now.
They haven't beaten anyone for a long time. If today wasn't for the fact that they were going to propose marriage to Sun Meng, it would have been a good day.
If these blind people dare to rush up and block the way, the secret guards can kick them away with just two kicks.
Huo Jingxuan waved his hand, signaling the secret guards to let them speak.
Those gossipers thought that their good days had come, as if they saw power and money waving at them.
He laughed twice, and then said, "I know where the bandits are, and I am willing to lead the way for you, sir.
Moreover, I, the common people, must put justice above my own and report the bandits' accomplices.
Tong Shuyi and Gulinar, the mother and daughter, are the bandit leader's future daughter-in-law and future mother-in-law respectively.
The two of them had very low awareness, they knew clearly that the group of people were bandits.
Not only did they not report it, but they actually went along with them. They both deserve to die."
At this moment, Huo Jingxuan was looking at those people who were making impassioned speeches as if they were fools.
Before he could say anything, Sun Meng simply couldn't listen anymore.
Dare to slander and frame her daughter-in-law and mother-in-law.
These guys are simply trying to tamper with the Lord's will and are looking for death!
He clamped his legs around the horse's belly and rode over on the tall horse.
He placed the sheath of his knife against the chin of the loudest chatterbox, forcing him to look up.
"Open your dog eyes and see who I am!"
The chatterbox stared at it for a long time but couldn't figure out what was going on.
At this time, the man who was kneeling behind him and had been kicked black and blue by Sun Meng before couldn't help but look up secretly out of curiosity and glanced at Sun Meng.
Just this one glance almost scared him to death.
“Oh my god!
Damn it!
He, he, he is the bandit leader."
"ah???"
At this time, all the people who were watching the excitement were stunned.
He was mumbling quietly, "One moment he's a bandit, the next he's a soldier.
Which one of these is true?
What’s going on?”
Sun Meng jumped off his horse with a click, grabbed the bruised man's hair and said, "I think you are blind in both eyes and heart.
You can't see the armor I'm wearing. This is the uniform of the Huo family army.
Look at the big red flower I’m wearing in front of me. Does it look familiar?
I'm going to my wife's house to propose marriage and offer betrothal gifts.
Not only did you slander me as a bandit, you also dared to slander my wife and mother-in-law as colluding with bandits.
I think you are looking for death!"
