The traitorous boss travels through time: The princess is causing trouble again!

Suddenly, the county magistrate stood up angrily, his face gloomy: "At worst, we can just fight them! We are all going to die anyway, so why not give it a try?"

He has more than a dozen thugs in his mansion, and with this small group of bandits, he may have a chance of winning.

The prince has not arrived in Chi County yet. Tonight, there is only the young man from the next courtyard and the dozens of people he brings with him. Compared with them, they do not have as many people as ours.

Heisan glanced at him and thought it was a really wild idea. As expected, when people are pushed into a corner, all kinds of stupid ideas will pop up.

"Go if you want, but don't implicate my brothers. As long as we behave ourselves, the prince might be able to show us a lighter sentence." Going out to fight now would only lead to death.

The county magistrate glared at him and said, "You are a bandit after all, how can you be so cowardly?" He is even more afraid of death than himself!

Before Heisan could say anything, dozens of brothers behind him nodded.

"Boss, what the county magistrate said makes sense. We can still fight with the dozens of people next door before the prince arrives."

"Yeah, we still have a chance of winning. It's better than sitting here and waiting to die."

"Boss, don't hesitate! We don't want to die!"

Hei San said sullenly, "If you don't want to die, don't be impulsive! If you go out now, you will only die sooner!"

"If I'm not mistaken, the mansion has been controlled. Maybe we won't be able to leave this yard."

Then he looked at the county magistrate: "The dozen thugs in your mansion have probably been arrested long ago. I see that the gatekeepers have extraordinary temperaments and should not be ordinary guards. It would not be a problem for them to fight ten people alone, not to mention that there are only a few dozen of us."

Now the county magistrate was completely desperate.

Hei San glanced at his brothers and said, "If you want to live, be honest. We are just following orders. All the ideas are from the first and second bosses. They have nothing to do with us."

When dozens of bandits heard this, they understood instantly.

The boss wants them to put all the blame on the first and second in command, but will this work?

The county magistrate sneered after hearing this: "You are so loyal! You still don't forget to pull him down even at this time. Aren't you afraid that the boss hasn't been caught yet? He will come to trouble you when the time comes."

Hei San curled his lips and said, "Even if the boss is not dead or caught, what can he do? The village has been destroyed. How can he cause trouble to me?"

Maybe by that time the boss won't be as powerful as himself.

The county magistrate had a sullen face. Hei San could push the blame onto the boss, but he was the county magistrate and the highest official here. Who could he push the blame onto?

In the carriage, Tang Xiluo saw two people looking out the window, feeling helpless. They were too awkward, weren't they? But why did he feel embarrassed?

"Ahem, you guys..."

The two of them looked up at her, waiting seriously for her next sentence.

The girl pursed her lips and finally sighed: "It's okay, you guys continue to enjoy the scenery."

It was night time now, and it was pitch black outside the carriage windows on both sides, so it was unknown what they could see.

Zhan Jingchen lowered the car curtains: "Are you tired these past two days? Take a rest. I'll call you when we get there."

Tang Xiluo rubbed her brows and said, "Forget it." She really couldn't sleep because of the strange atmosphere in the carriage.

Baili Yu was riding a horse, glancing back at the carriage from time to time, still feeling extremely confused.

How did the boss know the boy? One was in the capital and the other was in a mountain village in Chi County. How did they know each other? And they looked quite familiar with each other.

-

It's just dawn.

The people consciously stood at the county gate waiting for the prince's arrival. They had not slept well all night. The prince was here, and the people who supported them were here. They were determined to report the county magistrate's actions this time!

Shen Jingbei opened the door and stretched.

Lei Er stepped forward and said, "Sir, the people are already waiting at the county gate."

Shen Jingbei nodded: "When will your master arrive?"

"We'll be there soon."

"Okay, then you take some people with you to maintain order."

After Lei Er left, Shen Jingbei took the others to the study.

"Someone, tie up everyone in the study!"

Soon the county magistrate's voice was heard from inside.

"How dare you! I am a county official after all. How dare you tie me up? That's really outrageous!"

Soon the man was tied up and brought to Shen Jingbei.

The county magistrate said with a dark face: "Sir, what do you mean?"

Shen Jingbei curled his lips: "Isn't the county magistrate very clear in his mind?"

The county magistrate looked innocent at this moment: "I don't know what you are talking about, hurry up and let me go!"

"Oh, you are still stubborn even when you are about to die. This is the order of the prince. If I want to let you go, you have to ask the prince to let you go. Take the person out of here!"

the other side.

The carriage slowly entered the county.

"The prince and princess have arrived!"

The people knelt down and bowed.

Zhan Jingchen straightened his clothes and walked out with an expressionless face.

"Everyone, get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty, I have something to report!"

Zhan Jingchen raised his hand and said, "Don't worry, everyone should collect the food and money first."

The people were extremely anxious. Although they lacked food and money, they wanted to bring down the corrupt officials even more so that they would no longer be bullied and robbed by bandits.

Suddenly, a sharp-eyed citizen shouted, "Look, isn't that the bandit leader tied behind the carriage?"

"Really? This is the bandit leader!"

"Hahahaha! That's great! God is watching over us!"

"Your Majesty, a thousand years old, a thousand years old!"

"Your Majesty is wise and powerful..."

Looking at the smiles and excitement on the faces of the people outside, Tang Xiluo felt a little touched.

Zhan Jingchen spoke at this time and asked everyone to relax.

"I know what you are going to say. The stronghold was burned down last night. From now on, you don't have to be bullied by bandits anymore."

All the people's eyes were red. It turned out that the prince knew everything without them having to say anything. Even the mountain stronghold had been burned down...

At this time, crying and shouting were heard from afar. Everyone looked up and saw Shen Jingbei tying up the county magistrate and marching him towards them.

The people couldn't believe it: "The county magistrate was caught?!"

"The county magistrate has been found out? That's great!"

The county magistrate knelt down and begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, spare my life! I have been blinded by greed... All this was the bandits' idea!"

Zhan Jingchen said sullenly, "You colluded with bandits, oppressed the people, embezzled money, and even dared to join hands with bandits to rob the imperial court of disaster relief money three times. You deserve to die!"

"Your Majesty, this is all forced upon me by the bandits..."

When the big boss woke up and heard this, his face darkened immediately: "You are bullshitting! If you hadn't tipped me off, how would I know so much information?"

Zhan Jingchen threw all the evidence in front of the county magistrate: "I am not blind, why don't you plead guilty?!"

In the end, the county magistrate and the bandit leader were sentenced to death on the same day, and were beheaded in the county three days later. Their entire families were exiled, and the old housekeeper and the other bandits were also taken to prison and beheaded in the autumn...

The people applauded.
