Su Xiaoya and Su Mingyi couldn't help but frown.

These officers and soldiers were too arrogant. There were obviously more than a dozen children among the prisoners, both boys and girls. These children were either held or led by the embarrassed prisoners, but there were no whip marks on their bodies. They must have been protected by the embarrassed prisoners next to them.

Sure enough, the Feiyi Guards below directly verified Su Xiaoya's guess with new actions.

The bustling streets that were once bustling with people now seem to have been muted.

Everyone looked in awe at the arrogant group of Scarlet Guards in the middle of the street.

At this time, a red-clothed guard raised a whip high, with a fierce look on his face, and swung it hard at a boy about ten years old.

The prisoner beside the young man embraced him without hesitation and blocked the whip with his back. In an instant, a long and hideous scar appeared on the prisoner's back, bloody and bloody.

The power of this whip is so great that it seems to tear a person apart. It can be seen how cruel and ruthless the Red Robe Guards are.

The common people nearby watched this scene in horror. Although they were afraid of the power of the Red Robe Guards, they did not dare to step forward easily. They just stayed away and watched cautiously on both sides of the street.

However, this whip was too fierce. If it really landed on the young boy, the consequences would be disastrous and might even cost him half his life. Everyone couldn't help but whisper.

"Isn't this the grandson of the Minister of Industry?"

"It's true. I remember that during the polo match last year, he even had a fight with the grandson of Dingyuan Hou's family."

……

People's whispers filled the air, but the Red-clothed Guards remained unmoved. Their eyes were cold and firm, and it seemed that nothing could stop their determination to carry out their mission.

The atmosphere on the street suddenly became more tense and depressing, as if a storm was about to come.

Facing the sinister look of the Feiyiwei, all the common people immediately fell silent and lowered their heads.

Seeing the performance of the common people, the Red Guards withdrew their gazes with satisfaction and led the prisoners to the Red Guards' prison.

The onlookers couldn't help but gasp. If they entered the Red Uniform Guard, these people would be skinned alive if they didn't die.

But I don’t know what crime these people committed?

Many of them were grandchildren of high-ranking officials. Seeing the Red-clothed Guards walking away, the common people instantly became excited and began to gossip about the identities of these prisoners, speculating on what had happened in the capital that even the descendants of high-ranking officials had been arrested.

"Alas! This capital city is becoming more and more dangerous."

"Who says it's not true? Even the young grandson of Anyuan Hou's family was arrested."

"And the second grandson of Wu Yuanbo's family."

"Isn't that the eldest grandson of the Minister of Personnel?"

……

More and more people were recognized, and those who were interested pulled them together and found that all these young boys were descendants of high-ranking officials. Those adults were obviously loyal servants and guards of these mansions.

This……

Some people quickly left the crowd, not knowing whether they were hiding or going to report the news.

Before long, the streets returned to their former bustle.

However, everyone's eyes were filled with worry. Kyoto was becoming more and more dangerous.

Su Xiaoya and Su Mingyi's focus was different from that of others. They were looking at the red-robed guard who was whipping people.

There was no other reason, this Red-robed Guard was none other than Feng Zhiji, the second son of Lord Rong En.

Rong Enbo Feng Jitong was the "noble man" who persecuted Master Bian back then.
