The red clothes and red gauze dropped from the sky. At this moment, in the eyes of many people, it was like a god coming. Only this could save them from the water and fire.
The leading officer was already dumbfounded. They didn't know where this chivalrous man who wanted to save the people from the dire situation had appeared from. He could just go and kill the county magistrate. What was the point of threatening him? "Sir..."
With blood dripping from his neck, he felt the murderous intent coming from the man and quickly sent people to open the city gate. No matter what happened to others, he had to stay alive.
The yamen runners who followed him all listened to him. Fearing that something had happened to their leader, they hurried to open the gate. Common people poured out of the city like a tide. Jiang Qiu lay on the eaves and watched them leave their hometown in panic. He took a long breath and then began to worry about Lu Ce again.
In a fit of impulsiveness, she asked Lu Ce to save the people, and now she was the one in danger. Many yamen runners poured out from the government office, and each of them stared at Lu Ce, drew their swords, and wanted to chop Lu Ce to death!
The bailiffs raised their knives to suppress the attack, trying to force Lu Ce to put down the dagger and raise his hands to beg for mercy.
But Lu Ce's aura was enough to suppress them and stand above everyone else.
The battle is imminent!
Lu Ce moved, and the dagger flashed with silver light.
His movements were agile and quick. He swung his dagger and slashed. Wherever he passed, the yamen runners fell to the ground and died. He swept through the yamen runners like a dead tree or rotten wood. Dozens of them fell in front of him, and his dagger was covered in blood.
The glaring red color reflected on his handsome face. Lu Ce's eyes were cold and ruthless, without any joy, only indifference and loneliness.
After leaving the battlefield, Lu Ce returned to Jiang Qiu, took off his red clothes, put his arm around her waist and left the scene, joining the team leaving the city.
Jiang Qiu was in Lu Ce's arms, feeling the push of the crowd. He looked up at him, feeling completely at ease.
A force strong enough to support many things, when they left the city, they quickly came to Luo Yunchun.
Luo Yunchun asked hurriedly: "Why is the city gate closed?"
Lu Ce: "Forced conscription, I don't know why the city gates were opened again, we took the opportunity to get out, and we couldn't even take care of thirteen taels of food."
Seeing that their carts were gone, Luo Yunchun sighed and said, "It's good enough to be alive. Let's go back to the team."
Jiang Qiu also took a deep breath and said to the students, "It will take another six days to reach the nearest town. During this time, let's take a rest. I will make up for the lessons later."
Everyone expressed their understanding as they looked at the people who kept pouring out, and they all moved closer. They felt that these people were even crazier than they were. They all had money and were afraid that they would be robbed.
Luo Yunchun needed to wait for his subordinates who were buying supplies, so he could only stay where he was and wait.
Jiang Qiu looked at the people walking onto the official road one by one and asked Lu Ce: "Are you crazy if you don't allow the people to walk on the official road?"
Lu Ce: "Among the Three Kingdoms, only our country's official roads are not open to the people, highlighting their privileges."
Lu Ce paused and added: "Not entirely, but if you want to take the official road, you have to pay a huge amount of silver, so no one will take it later."
Jiang Qiu was silent.
Madman!
May you perish soon!
After Luo Yunchun met the common people, he quickly fled the scene to avoid being implicated.
Moving quickly along the official road, they were inevitably followed by refugees. Many of them also wanted to go to Qiongzhou. They would rather go to the most barren place than tolerate their relatives dying!
The team gradually grew larger.
Jiang Qiu covered her face, feeling a little embarrassed, but she did not regret what she had done. However, she looked at Lu Ce with some concern and asked in the lowest voice, "Will you bring trouble upon yourself?"
"will not!"
"Really? Don't lie to me. Let's discuss something together."
"There is a chivalrous man in the world who loves to wear red clothes." Lu Ce said.
Jiang Qiu blinked his eyes: "So you framed him for the crime?"
Lu Ce nodded slightly.
Jiang Qiu was anxious: "What should we do? If he is caught by the government, he will be doomed!"
"I will find a way to inform him. As for whether he can survive, he can only wish him good luck." Lu Ce said.
Jiang Qiu held his forehead with his hand: "Aren't you a little too deceptive?"
"He has cheated me before." Lu Ce said.
Otherwise, he would not dare to frame anyone's life!
Jiang Qiu breathed a sigh of relief. He just needed to be a little more sensible, so that people wouldn't be suddenly hunted down by a large number of government officials and die innocently, which would be tragic.
“You don’t need to worry about his life. In the Jianghu rankings, he ranks first in the number of people he has killed and the number of corrupt officials he has framed is countless. One more or one less won’t make any difference.” Lu Ce said.
Jiang Qiu's eyes lit up: "Is he that powerful?"
Lu Ce: "A little worse than me."
Jiang Qiu's expression is hard to describe.
But she was indeed a little relieved when she thought about it. As long as the person was safe, she would have trouble sleeping or eating.
Luo Yunchun came to Lu Ce's side and asked in a low voice: "It's not you, right?"
Lu Ce was confused: "What?"
Luo Yunchun looked at him deeply, then turned to Jiang Qiu and said, "There are more and more refugees following us. I will find a way to get rid of them, otherwise it will be disadvantageous to our team!"
Many people in their team have silver in their hands, not to mention others, Luo Yunchun has countless silver in his hands. The carriages filled with them are not filled with all the food, but large amounts of gold and silver. The refugees have just escaped, and they must have morals and will not easily offend the government officials, but what about the future?
People’s hearts are unpredictable!
Jiang Qiu pursed her lips and nodded slightly.
Luo Yunchun went to notify everyone one by one, telling them not to sleep too deeply at night and to escape overnight.
Everyone knew what was going on and had no objection to Luo Yunchun's arrangement, so on a dark and windy night, everyone quietly left the team.
The news that all the yamen runners of Hu'an Town County Government were killed and a large number of people fled and were unwilling to serve as yamen runners was quickly reported to Your Majesty. This memorial was sent by an imperial envoy passing by and went straight to the Heavenly Palace, hoping that Your Majesty would execute the magistrate of Hu'an Town County.
When the emperor read the memorial, he was furious. "You are a bunch of lowly people. How dare you disobey my imperial edict? You deserve to die!"
The civil and military officials who were prostrating themselves below fell silent. They were fully aware of the emperor's stubbornness and self-righteousness. If they spoke at this time, they would offend the emperor, so they did not dare to speak.
The emperor took a deep breath and said, "Send someone to hunt them down. Kill all the people in Hu'an Town!!!"
After these words were spoken, the court officials lost their composure. It was okay for him to lose his temper, but if he massacred the entire county's population, it would be a blatant statement: Come and rebel.
An imperial censor risked his life to meet the emperor, "Your Majesty..."
"Come here, kill him, drag him out and chop him up!!!"
He was furious.
As an emperor, he could not tolerate anyone contradicting him.
Many court officials who had some conscience shifted their focus to the Fifth Prince.
At the signal of his subordinates, Teng Enyuan also knelt deeply before the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, I heard that there is a person in Hu'an Town who looks very much like the imperial concubine. How about I find him for you?"
