The princess has space, and her life turns around when she turns into a silly woman
Chapter 210 Thank you, Master, for giving me a new life
However, just as the guards were about to step forward and take action, a figure suddenly blocked their way.
Baoyu and Huolei flashed and quickly came to Shangguan Qing. He looked at the guards coldly and kicked them out one by one.
The guards spat out blood in the air, then fell heavily to the ground, their life or death unknown.
Baoyu said calmly, "That's better. It won't affect others. Is there anyone else who wants to come forward?"
Baoyu glanced at everyone, and everyone stepped back, as if they were afraid that they had recognized the wrong person.
City Lord Cui was even more incredulous. "No, you can't do this. I will make sure you die miserably. I will make sure you can't gain a foothold in Western Xinjiang."
Shangguan Qing laughed out loud, "Yes, it's really impossible to gain a foothold in Western Xinjiang!"
When everyone was puzzled, Shangguan Qing said with a firm look in his eyes, "Because Western Xinjiang will no longer exist."
At this time, the women had picked up the swords on the ground and were stabbing or slashing at City Lord Cui. City Lord Cui screamed in pain and soon lost his breath.
Shangguan Qing and his group didn't care at all and showed admiration to the women.
The people around showed shocked expressions, and some murmured to themselves.
"Is this true? Is the city lord really dead?"
Someone else nodded and said firmly, "No matter what, I believe them. The city lord is not a good person. He oppresses the people all day long. They killed the city lord. They are here to save us. They are good people!"
Shangguan Qing smiled faintly and said to the crowd, "Everyone, we are short of manpower right now, and we need to recruit some help to manage this city. First, we need to detain these people, and then we can raid the City Lord's Mansion. As for how to deal with the property inside, it depends on the specific situation. We can consider distributing it to the people. After all, what is taken from the people should be used for the people."
However, the people still had doubts in their hearts and did not dare to believe it easily, let alone step forward.
At this moment, Jiaojiao suddenly knelt down and said loudly: "Benefactor, I believe in you! I am willing to help you, and I know where the treasures of the City Lord's Mansion are kept, and I also know where the food that the City Lord collected for Nangong Yu is hidden."
Shangguan Qing smiled and nodded, "Very good, then I will appoint you as the temporary mayor of this city, responsible for stabilizing the lives of the people. What do you think?"
Jiaojiao's eyes widened in surprise. She looked up at the bright and charming woman in front of her and stammered, "I...I can't!"
Shangguan Qing shook his head directly, "No, you can. I believe in my judgment. If I say you can, then you can. Don't be afraid. I will send someone to help you."
After hearing this, Jiaojiao's eyes were determined and her tone was very confident.
"As long as my benefactor believes in me, I will do my best to ensure the livelihood of the people and wait for the arrival of the Murong army."
Everyone was very surprised when they heard this. They simply couldn't believe that the position of the lord of this city was decided in just a few words between these two women.
While everyone was still immersed in surprise, Shangguan Qing had already led a group of people to rush into the City Lord's Mansion and began to search and distribute food and silver.
When Shangguan Qing saw the large amount of treasure that was found, he couldn't help but widen his eyes and look shocked.
"How come there are so many?"
Jiaojiao had regained her composure by this point. She explained softly, "Master, this fellow surnamed Cui is a perpetrator of all sorts of evil. He bullies the innocent and robs women all day long. Once he finds a wealthy family, he'll fabricate a crime and confiscate their property. Therefore, even if the people have money now, they dare not show it easily."
Shangguan Qing's face was filled with anger after hearing this. He gritted his teeth and said, "How can such a thing still happen? Isn't there anyone who can take care of it?"
Jiaojiao sneered and replied, "The Western Frontier Royal Court is utterly corrupt. From top to bottom, they only care about their own interests and enjoyment, completely ignoring the lives of the people. How could they care about the lives of these ordinary people?"
Shangguan Qing clenched his fists, his eyes firm and resolute.
"It doesn't matter, Xijiang will soon cease to exist!"
Jiaojiao widened her eyes, her face full of disbelief.
"Master, is this true? Is Xijiang really going to perish?"
Her voice was trembling and her expression was very excited.
Shangguan Qing nodded affirmatively, a bright smile blooming on his face, making people feel like they were in the spring breeze.
"It's true. Don't worry, you won't die, and you don't have to die. It's the evil people who deserve to die. And I hope you will use your abilities to create your own glory. This City Lord's Mansion is your first stop."
Jiaojiao muttered to herself, a hint of confusion flashing in her eyes.
"No need to die...our glory? But we are all a bunch of broken women. How can we have the nerve to yearn for such a beautiful world?"
Shangguan Qing interrupted her without mercy.
"No, it's not your fault. It's the sins of those evil people. You have nothing to do with them. They have received the punishment they deserve. Now it's your turn to start anew and gain a new life. You are not afraid of death, so how can you be afraid of living a good life?"
After hearing this, Jiaojiao burst into tears. She slowly raised her head and glanced at the sisters around her.
Every woman had tears streaming down her face, but their eyes were full of longing for the future.
A strong sense of courage surged in Jiaojiao's heart. She knew that they could not continue to sink into despair and must bravely face the new life.
Jiaojiao took a deep breath, knelt resolutely in front of Shangguan Qing, and shouted loudly, "Thank you, Master, for giving us a new life. We will definitely live well!"
The other women followed Jiaojiao's lead, kneeling and knelt, kowtowed, and shouted in unison: "Thank you, Master, for the gift of new life!"
Shangguan Qing looked at the scene in front of him quietly, with complex emotions surging in his heart.
She knew that these women had suffered endless hardships, but at this moment, she saw the light deep in their hearts.
She firmly believes that as long as they are given a chance, they will be able to stand up again and live a happy life.
Shangguan Qing smiled brightly and said softly.
"That's right, that's exactly what I want. I'll send someone to assist you and help you quickly familiarize yourself with and master administrative affairs. I have every confidence in you and believe you'll be able to handle the position of city lord."
After Shangguan Qing finished speaking, he left Dongmei and Baoyu behind and turned to leave.
At this moment, the streets were bustling with people.
This is not only because the soldiers at the border have returned home, but more importantly, they brought the latest news about the border and a series of people-friendly policies implemented by the Murong State.
Everyone finally realized that all the events that had happened in the City Lord's Mansion before were actually true.
Some soldiers returning from the border took the initiative to join Jiaojiao's team. One of the important reasons was that they all knew Dongmei and Baoyu.
