Quick Wear: The Development of a Pure Cannon Fodder

Chapter 29 She No Longer Wants to Be the Heroine (29)

In fact, it can be seen here that Yan Yue’s brain is not very bright.

She was too conceited and self-confident, believing her plan to be flawless. She hadn't considered that if the investigators carefully questioned the imprisoned county magistrate, wouldn't they be able to uncover the truth? She had been the one who had imprisoned the magistrate with her own men. Was she doing it voluntarily? Was she being used as a shield by the people of Qingcheng? Couldn't the magistrate see through it?

Since it has been confirmed and there is evidence that Yan Yue and the young people under her are rebelling, Shao Lian no longer pretends.

In order not to alert the enemy, Shao Lian and Yu Ziyin arrived on time on the day they were supposed to get the medicine. After Yan Yue took out the antidote and was about to talk to the two of them, a bloody figure suddenly rushed in, "Miss Yan! It's bad! The warehouse is surrounded!"

The warehouse is where Yan Yue stores ironware.

Yan Yue hadn't expected to be surrounded. Wasn't she hiding well? And she had someone secretly watching over there. If anyone approached, they would come to her first. Why would they come to her after being surrounded?

The only explanation is that the person she asked to watch was also killed, and now the person running in front of her is the only survivor!

Her whole body went limp, and she felt dizzy. If it weren't for Li across from her, she would have fallen down without caring about her image. She subconsciously put away her composure and looked at Shao Lian, "Since you have already got the medicine, go back first... Come back in five days."

In fact, it is not necessary to use it. Mrs. Li has not been taking the drug for too long, and the impact she has suffered is just that. But because she wants to see Mrs. Li, the medicine given to Mrs. Li cannot solve her condition at once.

Seeing that Shao Lian had no intention of leaving, Yan Yue couldn't help but frown, "Mr. Li?"

Yu Zinyin, who also thought that she was only here to gather intelligence today, didn't know why she didn't leave. She turned around and was about to leave with Shao Lian when she was pulled into his arms. Her head was pressed against his chest, and she couldn't see anything. She could only hear Shao Lian say, "Kill them all except Yan Yue!"

Immediately, the door was broken open from the outside, and many guards with swords rushed in, and many shadow guards also jumped in from the back wall in the sky.

Yan Yue was stunned and looked at Shao Lian in disbelief, "Who are you! You are not the embroidery boss!"

She thought again, then the woman in Shao Lian's arms was not his wife either?

But she didn't have time to think about it. The screams of the young people around her and the sounds of knives piercing flesh came one after another. Yan Yue subconsciously wanted to escape. She was not good at martial arts, so she could only use poison. After she sprinkled the poison powder, she wanted to retreat. Considering Shao Lian, she did not sprinkle it towards Shao Lian, but in the opposite direction.

Countless shadow guards stood in front of Shao Lian and Yu Ziyin. The two stood aside. She looked over and saw that Shao Lian was not afraid of being hacked at all, because once anyone approached, they would be immediately killed by the shadow guards. The bloody scene made Yu Ziyin's scalp numb.

Blood sprayed in front of her, and she couldn't help but take a step back. Shao Lian lowered his eyes to see that her face looked really bad, but he didn't hold her like before. Instead, he said: "Qingqing should see more and practice your courage."

Hearing the relaxed tone in her ear, Yu Ziyin's face turned pale.

Who trains their courage like this!

If possible, Shao Lian actually didn't want to let Yan Yue stay, but because Yu Ziyin's condition was not right and it seemed that only Yan Yue could cure her, Shao Lian kept her. When they arrived in the capital, if he found a better doctor and still couldn't solve Qingqing's condition, then Yan Yue might be Yu Ziyin's only treatment method.

It’s not that Shao Lian hasn’t thought about looking for the Divine Doctor. On the contrary, he has already sent people out to look for the Divine Doctor or his other disciples. However, the Divine Doctor’s whereabouts are elusive, and his disciples also follow him around everywhere, so it’s difficult to find them. He has to be prepared for both situations.

When Yu Zinyin heard Li Wei's curse, she looked over and found that the young man who was killed was Li Wei who had brought them here before. In fact, that Li Wei left a very good impression on her. He looked like an honest and decent young man. On weekdays, he would bring his wife to visit the embroidery shop when it was open.

She felt a little reluctant, but listening to Li Wei's dissatisfaction with the current court and his insults to the emperor, Yu Ziyin couldn't even say a word to plead for him.

When Yu Ziyin saw Shang Liang approaching Li Wei with a sword, she subconsciously wanted to look away, but Shao Lian grabbed her shoulders and she couldn't move.

Shao Lian whispered in her ear, "Qingqing, the evidence of their rebellion is irrefutable. There is no room for excuses. The only outcome is death."

Yu Ziyin felt the hairs on her back stand on end, but she also knew that what Shao Lian said was true, so she could only nod lightly, "I know."

Even without Shao Lian telling her, she knew that the situation in Qingcheng was not a problem of the imperial court, but that the local county magistrate was deceiving his superiors and subordinates. If the local people had simply resisted violently, they might have had a chance of survival, but they chose to rebel under Yan Yue's instigation, which was seeking death.

But when she looked at the real murder scene in front of her, she felt sour in her stomach and wanted to vomit. Yu Ziyin's face was pale, and she sat on the ground weakly with her hands covering her mouth. Finally, when she saw Shang Liang chopping off Li Wei's limbs alive, and Li Wei was still wriggling on the ground like a worm, she could no longer hold on and ran out to vomit.

Shao Lian didn't stop him either.

After vomiting, Yu Zinyin leaned against the wall and gasped weakly, and her hands holding the handkerchief were shaking.

For her, the shock was too great.

The secret guards were much more powerful than these peasants. All the young men except Yan Yue were killed. Yan Yue himself had his wrists cut off, and his hands and feet were tied by Shang Liang and pressed to the ground.

Yan Yue looked at Shao Lian and the others with hatred. She glared at Shao Lian, "You lied to me! Shameless! Who the hell are you? Do you dare to tell me your name? I won't let you go!"

Shao Lian didn't even look at her, but instead looked at Shang Liang to ask about the situation in the county magistrate's office and the iron foundry.

Shang Liang: "My Lord, Wei Zhe has suppressed all the people from the County Magistrate's Office and the Iron Foundry."

Yan Yue was stunned when she heard Shang Liang's words. The county magistrate's office was fine, but they even found the iron foundry? Impossible! She had hidden so deeply, how could she be discovered?

She couldn't help but look at Shao Lian, the leader, with astonishment in her eyes, "Who are you?"

The person before her must be someone extraordinary. She should have expected this. There were so many shadow guards here, each one a world apart from the ones she had trained. And he could even lead a siege on the county magistrate's mansion and the iron foundry. How could he be an ordinary official? Could he be a high-ranking official?

The more Yan Yue thought about it, the more she felt that this was very possible!

Yan Yue desperately wanted an answer, but also wanted to demonstrate her innocence as she had planned.

"Answer me! Who are you? Why did you show up only now? Where were you when I was being bullied by these people? You're showing up now to act like a hero?! If I wasn't smart and knew how to be humble, I would have died long ago! Let me go! I'm innocent. I was oppressed by them!"

Yan Yue began to talk about how she was coerced, and cleared herself of all responsibility for the rebellion.
