Chapter 395 A Mess
Guo Jipeng is dead.
Before he died, he said to his soldiers with regret: "Don't go back, the dog emperor is not worth it..."
The villagers threw Guo Jipeng, who died with his eyes open, out.
The moment the city gates closed, the soldiers knelt down.
"Great scholar..." They had tears in their eyes and didn't know what to say.
"Go back!" Wang Changyang sighed, "Just pretend you know nothing. The emperor won't make things difficult for you."
"Great scholar, do you want to stay in Heihe City?" a soldier asked.
"Nonsense! Why would the great scholar return to the capital? Is he going to be killed by the dog emperor?" the villagers said angrily.
The soldiers cried.
They knew in their hearts that after this incident, the emperor had completely hurt the great scholar's heart.
The great scholar worked hard for the court all his life, but now he was assassinated by the prime minister and abandoned by the emperor. Even those who were unrelated to him felt heartbroken, let alone the great scholar himself?
The soldiers shouted:
"We also want to join Black River City!"
"We don't want to work for that cruel emperor anymore!"
"Please ask Black River City to take us in!"
"Come on! Who knows if you are human or ghost?"
The villagers slammed the city gate shut.
They were almost scared to death today. It will probably not be so easy for anyone who wants to enter Heihe City in the future.
Zhao Xingjian and Wang Changyang are checking the villagers' injuries.
Many people were injured in the fight just now.
External injuries are secondary. Some people suffer internal injuries and need a long time to recover.
Fortunately, the Fan family has a doctor who has medicine, so these are not a big deal.
Luo Qiuyue, who was preparing to go home, was surrounded by villagers.
"Mother Yan Ping, today is really thanks to you! What would I do without you?"
"Yes! You saved two lives at once, that's amazing!"
Luo Qiuyue laughed awkwardly: "Fellow villagers, this is just a case of a blind cat catching a dead mouse, don't take it seriously!"
"Yan Ping's mother, you are too modest. Everyone listens to what that bastard says!"
"It takes a sect leader to cure this poison! Yan Pingniang, you cured it effortlessly!"
Everyone became more and more excited as they talked, looking at Luo Qiuyue with admiration.
"If you ask me, Yan Pingniang is much more powerful than that sect leader!"
"Now that we see it, Yan Ping's father and mother are both masters. We've lived in the same village with masters for over 20 years, yet we didn't even notice! It really seems like we were blind!"
…
Luo Qiuyue tried her best to squeeze out, and Ye Yanping pulled her from the outside, finally helping her break through the siege.
"My fellow villagers, I am just an ordinary person, not a master. I will go back first!" Luo Qiuyue slipped away.
"Mom!" Ye Yanping caught up, "Mom, how did you know how to detoxify? Have you been hiding this from us? What were you doing twenty years ago?"
"Go on, go on!" Luo Qiuyue kept walking.
"Why are you joining in the fun? Do you have to bring up something that happened twenty years ago? Your mother is incredibly talented and self-taught. Couldn't she have taught herself in Heihe Village? Don't follow me!"
Ye Yanping scratched his head in distress.
It's too difficult.
Just when he had begun to understand his father's hidden identity, his mother made him confused again.
Not far away, Zhao Xingjian and Wang Changyang watched Luo Qiuyue's departing back.
"Master, do you know? Yan Pingniang told us before that her martial arts skills are average, but her disguise skills are amazing."
"Now it seems that her method of detoxification is even more amazing." Wang Changyang said.
Zhao Xingjian had already told him what happened twenty-one years ago, and he already knew that Luo Qiuyue was not an ordinary person.
"Exquisite disguise skills, superb detoxification methods..." Wang Changyang's eyes flashed, and he swallowed the answer in his heart.
Two days later, Wang Changyang's family and clansmen all arrived in Heihe City.
Wang Changyang has two sons, both of whom are in their forties and serve in the court.
After receiving the secret letter from their father, they were all stunned, and their first reaction was disbelief.
Let’s put it this way, in their hearts, even if all the officials in the court rebelled, their father would never rebel!
Although his father curses at home every day, he will never do anything to betray the Xiao family!
But the secret letter could not be fake, so they followed the people from the Fan family and left the capital overnight.
At this moment in the capital, the news that Wang Daru had joined Heihe City had spread like wildfire.
The entire court was shocked.
At this time, Zhao Xingjian's informant left in the capital spread the rumor that the emperor sent Guo Jipeng to poison Wang Changyang.
The ministers were furious.
They blocked the emperor in the Golden Palace and demanded an explanation.
The emperor naturally did not recognize it.
He thought that as long as he gritted his teeth and refused to admit it, just like he had killed the regent, no one would be able to find any evidence against him.
After all, only he and Guo Jipeng knew about this.
But what the emperor did not expect was that Guo Jipeng had a very good relationship with his wife. When he left the capital, he mentioned his plan to his wife Chai.
Chai had been waiting for Guo Jipeng to come back and get a promotion, but she didn't expect that what she waited for was a corpse.
The soldier who brought the body back hesitated and refused to say more. He also told her not to ask too many questions and to bury it quietly to ensure her safety.
Chai became suspicious and asked a coroner to perform an examination. She learned that Guo Jipeng was poisoned to death by the Wusheng Sect. She immediately realized that he had been betrayed by the emperor.
Chai was a woman with a strong character. That day, she climbed up to Fan Tower, a favorite destination for dignitaries, and stood on the roof to announce to the public that the emperor had used Guo Jipeng to kill Zhao Xingjian and Wang Daru.
"I hate him! I hate that I was blinded by greed and didn't stop him! It's because we can't distinguish right from wrong that we risk our lives for the bastard emperor! We ended up like this, and no one else is to blame!"
After Chai finished speaking, she jumped off Fan Tower and died in front of everyone!
The capital was in an uproar.
Daewoo is in an uproar.
The imperial tutor of three dynasties, who was still devoting himself to Daewoo in his seventies, was actually betrayed by the emperor!
Everyone was furious!
Wang Changyang's disciples are spread all over the world and have a great influence.
Even for ordinary students, Wang Changyang is a beacon in their hearts.
Riots broke out in various parts of Daewoo, and many county and government offices were directly shut down.
Not to mention the court.
A censor was killed in front of the hall during the morning court session, and the emperor was covered in blood.
All the old ministers submitted petitions, requesting to retire and return home.
Apart from the prime minister's party, the remaining officials were either sick or resigned, and the court was in chaos.
…
At this time in Heihe Village, Xiao Jiuer was sitting on the steps in front of the door, holding an apple she had just picked from the tree and chewing it with a crunching sound.
There were not many fruits from the apple trees this year, so everyone decided not to sell them and instead give them all to the villagers.
At the bottom of the stairs, the village head was also chewing an apple with his broken teeth.
"Xiao Jiu'er, the county magistrate just came to collect taxes again, but everyone ignored him and he left crying again."
"Okay." Xiao Jiuer shook her head, "Poor Yin."
The county magistrate is really pitiful.
After the rebellion in Heihe Village, Zhou Huaining directly submitted a petition to resign from his official position. Before the imperial court's approval came down, he followed Yingyan and the two sons of the Fan family to the place of exile.
The county magistrate is now struggling alone.
There were riots from time to time in the surrounding counties, and several county magistrates were driven away.
The Xianchuan County Government Office is temporarily safe because the people are doing it for Zhou Huaining's sake.
The county magistrate knew that the day Zhou Huaining left office would be his unlucky day.
"Also, several surrounding counties have sent people here, saying they've taken over the county government office and they think the imperial court will send troops to suppress them. They want to seek refuge in Heihe City, so they haven't left yet and are waiting for a response outside the city."
"Okay!" Little Dumpling waved his hand, "It's time to go out and fight!"
