Chapter 270: The Young Master Wakes Up
A guard came forward and whispered, "Boss, why don't we go back?"
"If we go back like this, how will we explain to the master?" The head of the guards had a headache and was in a dilemma.
"If I don't go back, I'm afraid it will be even harder to explain."
"What do you mean?"
"Did you see the old man under the big locust tree?"
"What's wrong? Who is this person?"
The head of the guard said this and glanced at the old general.
Of course he saw the old man.
After all, County Magistrate Zheng had just run over to pay his respects.
Although he did not hear what County Magistrate Zheng said, but seeing how respectful County Magistrate Zheng was and the fact that he was standing while the other person was sitting, he knew that their official positions were quite different.
What's more, County Magistrate Zheng has now turned against his allies at the last minute.
This is enough to prove that this old man must have some background.
"If I am not mistaken, that old man is General Shenwu." The guard said with admiration in his eyes.
"General Shenwu?" The head of the guards was surprised. "Why is General Shenwu here? Isn't he..."
The head of the guards remembered something before he finished speaking.
This is Fengqi County. Some time ago, there was a rumor that a gold mine was discovered in Fengqi County, and General Shenwu was sent to supervise the gold mining.
"Boss, look at those people behind him..."
The guard signaled the head guard to look behind the old general.
"Judging from the way they stand, I'm afraid these people are all from the Yang Family Army."
The head of the guards followed his subordinate's gaze.
What greeted him were eyes that seemed to carry blood.
The head of the guards shuddered.
Although he knows some martial arts, he is still no match for those who have actually been on the battlefield.
You could also say that it lacks that bloody smell.
The Yang Family Army is a personal guard of General Shenwu, and all of them are people who survived by eating raw meat and drinking blood on the battlefield.
The head of the guards was frightened.
"Or... let's go back!" the guard leader said with determination.
It's a loss of face anyway.
It's better to go back in disgrace like this than to get beaten up and go back in a mess.
However, he could not make the final decision on this matter and had to ask the housekeeper who was with the old lady for her opinion.
Mother Wang and Mother Li both came following the old lady's orders.
But the two of them sat in the carriage, looking at each other, and neither of them showed his head.
Instead, it was Third Young Lady's wet nurse, Mother Zhang, who could no longer sit still.
Mother Zhang came here with full confidence to seek revenge, how could she go back like this?
"These unruly people should be dealt with properly. Let them know how powerful our Duke's Mansion is..."
Mother Zhang muttered angrily.
"Mother Wang, what do you think we should do about this?" the head of the guards asked through the car window. "The road is blocked now. We can't even get into the village..."
Mother Wang and Mother Li looked at each other.
Both of them saw the same meaning in each other's eyes - go back.
However, the two also knew that if they didn't even get out of the carriage and didn't say a word, they would not be able to explain to the old lady when they returned.
But with the situation outside, wouldn’t they be beaten if they got out of the car?
Mother Wang was feeling embarrassed when Mother Zhang spoke up first.
"You didn't even bother to ask why they were blocking the road, and you're just here to ask for advice. Are you planning to back out?" Mother Zhang asked sarcastically, "Could it be that the Duke's Mansion has raised you guys for nothing? You're all cowards! You're bringing shame to the Duke's Mansion for nothing..."
The more Mother Zhang spoke, the more unpleasant it became, and the guards' faces turned pale.
The guards' faces turned pale, but the people of Daliushu Village, especially the old general and the Yang family army behind him, could not wait any longer.
These people have been hesitating and not moving forward. What should we do when they feel itchy?
"Get out of here if you know what's good for you! Go back and tell your master that my sister, Su Laoer, is not something that your sickly young master can even dream of having." Su Laoer shouted, holding the sword at his waist in one hand and pointing at the group of people in the Duke of Ying's Mansion with the other.
In fact, he wanted to take direct action, but he was a government official after all, so it was not easy for him to take the initiative to hit others.
What's more, he was in front of the county magistrate and the prefect.
Su Laoer also shared the same concerns as Su Laotou and others.
Everyone knew the purpose of these people from the Duke of England's mansion.
But if they don't say it out loud, they will always lack a reason to hit someone.
As soon as Su Laoer finished speaking, these villagers who had eaten and drunk their fill immediately found an outlet to vent their anger.
"Get out of here now! Otherwise I'll beat you until you cry for your parents..."
"If you dare to have any ideas about Fuya again, I will beat you so hard that you won't even recognize your parents..."
"Get out of here quickly, I can't bear the hammer any longer..."
“…”
The villagers of Daliushu Village spoke loudly and waved the weapons in their hands, looking like they were about to rush forward.
When Mother Wang saw this scene, she quickly ordered, "Go back."
If I don’t leave now, I’m afraid I’ll really get beaten.
The coachman, as if pardoned, quickly turned the horse around.
Although Mother Zhang was also scared, she couldn't help but lift the car curtain and shout harsh words.
"Just wait! We in the Duke's Mansion will definitely not let you unruly people off! Wait for our Duke to bring his troops and wipe out your entire village..."
Before Mother Zhang could finish her words, the old general slammed the table and shouted angrily, "How dare a mere servant brazenly say he wants to wipe out an entire village! How is he any different from a bandit?! Could it be that the Duke of Ying's mansion is so rebellious that they no longer care about the laws of the court!"
As soon as the old general finished speaking, the faces of the guard leader, Mother Wang and others changed drastically.
If this accusation is confirmed, it would be a serious crime that would lead to the extermination of nine generations of the family.
Mother Zhang was also startled, her face flushed with anxiety as she yelled, "What are you talking about, you old fool? I..."
"Shut up!"
"court death!"
Before Mother Zhang could finish her words, the two big men behind the old general shouted angrily and ran over.
You dare to curse the general, you must be punished!
Since someone has already taken action, and Zhang's mother has created a reason for people to take action, there is no reason for others to endure it anymore.
Especially the Su brothers, they have been ready to go.
"You dare to have ideas about my sister? I will beat you to death today..."
Su Laoer rushed forward with his fists raised.
The other brothers of the Su family followed closely behind.
Other people in Daliushu Village followed closely.
"You actually want to destroy our village? I'll destroy you first..."
"Yes! Kill them..."
"Brothers, come on..."
For a moment, the crowd surged, and hammers, wooden sticks and rolling pins flew together.
"ah!"
"Ouch!"
"It hurts so much..."
“…”
The people in the Duke of England's mansion had no ability to resist at all.
The dozen or so guards did have some martial arts skills, but there were too many people in Daliushu Village.
With the addition of several soldiers from the Yang family, the guards of the Duke of Ying's mansion could only take a beating.
The old general waved his hand behind him.
"Watch out, don't let anyone get killed."
"yes."
Several big men who were standing still also rushed over.
**
In the county inn.
"Madam, the young master has woken up!" Zizhu replied with a happy face.
"Really? Hurry! Carry me to see Jin'er." The old lady said excitedly.
