Rich Peasant Girl: The General's Wife Has Space

Chapter 488: Watching the Fun at the City Gate

There were many people entering and leaving the city at the city gate. When they saw Xiao Wan's two carriages coming, they all turned around curiously to look.

But when they suddenly saw a few people tied to the back of their carriage, they all retreated in surprise, but not far. After all, we have a nature of loving to watch the fun since ancient times.

Who are these people? Why are they so cruel? They even tie people to the back of a carriage and drag them away.

Tsk tsk tsk, how scary and brutal.

Look at these people, it's really horrible. Their clothes are worn out and the flesh on the backs of their thighs is exposed and bloody.

Huh~ so brutal! The people took another small step back.

But there must be a reason why these people dared to tie these people up in broad daylight.

So everyone slowed down their pace in and out of the city, watching the carriage approaching out of the corner of their eyes, wanting to know what was going on so they could tell their neighbors and friends about it when they got back and have it as a topic of conversation.

The guard at the door also noticed the two carriages coming, and the sharp-eyed one saw the people tied behind the carriages. He hurried to report the matter to the chief guard.

The chief guard was originally leaning against the city gate, basking in the sun with his eyes squinting. Upon hearing this, he suddenly opened his eyes and his expression became serious. He waved to two soldiers guarding the city to wait for the carriage to arrive at the gate.

These people dared to drag people away in broad daylight and even dared to provoke us at the city gate?

Once he finds out the truth, he will definitely take down these people.

When the carriage arrived at the city gate, everyone held their breath. They saw the man sitting on the shaft, Zhang Liang, get off the carriage holding a sword.

He walked forward calmly, clasping his sword and saluting the man who was obviously the head guard. The head guard glanced at him coldly, pointed at the carriage and said, "Who are you? Why don't you get off the carriage at the city gate? Who's that person tied up in the back?"

Everyone held their breath, waiting for the man's answer, their eyes filled with excitement.

Zhang Liang calmly replied, "Sir, I am Zhang Liang, the guard of Huide County Lady. While escorting her on a journey, we encountered a group of thieves who blocked the road and robbed her. We have already apprehended them."

"There was no extra space on the bus, so they dragged these people here and sent them to the government office. This group's behavior doesn't seem like their first crime. I suspect they have another murder case on their hands."

After Zhang Liang finished speaking, he handed the county lord's token in his hand to the chief guard.

When the people entering and leaving the city heard the whole story, they were immediately shocked.

What, these people are bandits? Pah, just now they felt sorry for these people, but it turns out they are just bandits who rob and loot.

You deserve to be tied to the back of the carriage!

The gatekeeper was a little confused when he heard the words "County Lady Huide". Then he heard that the people behind the carriage were robbers and they had robbed the county lady. He was even more worried.

He took the token handed to him by Zhang Liang with both hands. The bronze token had a clear mark on it, indicating that this person was indeed the county lord.

I seem to have heard of the name Huide County Princess. Could it be the peasant girl who presented potatoes to the emperor? I heard that this county princess also had a fiefdom, which is a rare imperial favor in the Yuan Dynasty.

How did this peasant girl come to them?

But no matter what, she was a county lord with a fiefdom, so the head guard did not dare to be careless and quickly stepped forward to pay his respects: "Your humble servant greets you. These thieves deserve to die for disturbing you. Please move your carriage to the government office and ask the prefect to punish these thieves. By the way, please rest up before making any plans."

Xiao Wan had already opened the curtain and said to the head guard with a smile, "Your Excellency is very polite. Please arrest these thieves. We will then go to the government office and explain the situation to the prefect."

The guard leader responded quickly, then waved his hand and asked his men to untie the bandits from the carriage.

Seeing the skin and flesh of several people being dragged and bleeding, the guard leader twitched his mouth. This county lord is really fierce.

However, it would not be an exaggeration to beat such bandits to death.

It was just bad luck for them that they ended up robbing the county lady.

Fortunately, the county lady's men were all very skilled in martial arts, otherwise most of the people in this car were women. If they were robbed, who knows what tragic end they would have suffered.

This group of bandits often harassed the people, and several wealthy families in the city suffered from this unprovoked disaster.

The bandits disguised themselves as ordinary peddlers walking around the streets, broke into the house, not only destroyed the woman's innocence, but also beat and killed the owner and robbed a lot of gold, silver and other valuables.

This behavior is extremely cruel and outrageous!
