The surroundings were eerily quiet, as if for an instant, everyone had lost the ability to speak.
Liu Shengsheng looked at the few people with interest, sometimes looking at the kneeling boy, sometimes looking at the woman lying on the ground with a frightened face, and found it very interesting.
"I never knew that Taocheng was not controlled by you as the city manager, but by Fairy Pavilion, the shopkeeper of a shabby restaurant, who dared to claim to be able to hold the sky with one hand. It seems that you, the city lord, are quite cowardly."
Liu Shengsheng's tone was calm, but the city lord was so frightened that he knelt on the ground on the spot.
"What did the princess say? This world is still the emperor's world, and everything under the emperor's feet is the king's law. But a broken restaurant can't control Taocheng's affairs. It's because the officials didn't do their job well that they let these people jump. The clown has stained the eyes of the princess. If that woman displeases the princess, I will drag her out to parade in the streets and behead her at noon tomorrow..."
Look at the words inside and outside, they are really full of desire for survival.
Liu Shengsheng looked at the young man next to him with a half-smile, "It doesn't matter whether he beheaded or not. The guy next to you keeps saying that everyone is equal, and that a gentleman who breaks the law is guilty of the same crime as the common people, but he helps without any reason. A group of street gangsters, ignoring the beggar's orders, but..."
Before she could finish her words, the boy had already kowtowed to the ground.
"Princess Concubine, please calm down! I'm just blind and blind. I hope the Concubine will spare my life!"
He is quite discerning.
Yichen snorted coldly, "You were so arrogant just now, now you know how to beg for mercy?"
As he said that, he turned away and said, "It's just because our status is more noble that you temporarily begged for mercy. If not, you would have arrested us long ago, right?" Kansula
The young man was trembling and did not dare to speak.
Yichen added: "Girl, I think it's better to just drag these people out and kill them, right? Just do what the city lord said. It would be best to arrest all the people outside and parade them through the streets, and let everyone Look at how serious the consequences will be if you use your name to cheat outside."
Liu Shengsheng nodded slightly, "It makes sense."
The young man still wanted to beg for mercy, but the city lord next to him stepped forward and gave him a fist.
"Shut your stinky mouth, you blind thing! Someone, drag this stinky boy down to the Lord of the City and give him a hard fight!"
As he spoke, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed twice.
"Princess, Your Highness, Prince Cang, please calm down. This boy is the son of a loyal servant of Xiaguan. He has only recently come to work for Xiaguan. He is blind, so it would be appropriate to gouge his eyes out, but His father gave him to me. No matter what happens, I must spare his life. I also ask the princess to give me some mercy, and I also beg His Highness Prince Cang to spare his life!"
Liu Shengsheng raised her eyebrows and said, "You are a kind and compassionate person."
"Don't dare to take it, don't dare to take it..."
"Since you have been severely punished, let's do it. Anyway, he didn't cause any real harm to us, but you know how to deal with those people outside, right?"
Liu Shengsheng's voice was cold, and even her voice became a bit colder when she talked about the people outside.
The city lord nodded in agreement, "I will go and deal with those people now, and I will definitely give a perfect explanation to the princess and your highness!"
After he finished speaking, he kowtowed again, then stood up and walked out shakily.
After going out, he closed the door again.
There was already a commotion outside the door.
"The Lord of the City must make the decision for us. We were beaten for no reason, and we must let them pay for it with blood!"
"Yes, yes, they are also engaging in kidnapping. Kidnapping innocent women is a serious crime and must be severely punished!"
"Did the Lord of the City rescue the people?"
"Lord City Lord..."
"..."
All kinds of sounds resounded through the streets. You didn't even need to look to know that there must be a commotion outside.
Then came
He heard the cold voice of the city lord, "Come here! Arrest these troublemakers for me, the city lord!"
Everyone was shocked and shouted for a while.
"What's going on, Lord City Lord?"
"Aren't the troublemakers inside? Why do you arrest us?"
The city lord glared angrily at the group of people in front of him who almost killed him, and said word by word: "You played with beggars, killed several people, and treated human lives as nothing. Is it wrong to arrest you? From now on, noisy All those who are punished will be severely punished with eighty pieces of boards! After beating them, chop off one of their legs! Those who are willing to kneel at the door and apologize to the nobles only need to chop off one leg! You can decide what to do on your own!"
As expected, everyone was noisily shouting that they were wronged.
Some people even shouted angrily: "Don't forget how you became the city lord! If it weren't for my father's support, would you be able to become the city lord?"
"Although my father is just a county magistrate, you said you would protect us forever!"
"The Lord of the City has not kept his word!"
"What about helping each other as promised? Are you going to break the agreement?"
"..."
The city lord's face turned blue and purple, "I'm so angry! Someone's coming! Palm!"
Not long after, loud slaps came from outside.
Along with the bursts of crying and cursing, the sound of slaps became louder and louder.
As the first person was dragged down and beaten with a board, as the first person had his leg chopped off...
The street suddenly became quiet.
Some people began to rush towards Liufang Pavilion rolling and crawling.
"City Lord, please don't kill me. I apologize. I will kowtow and apologize now!"
But it was obviously too late at this moment.
The city lord just waved his hand, and all the troublemakers were dragged down...
Wails began to ring through the streets, and some people began to beg for mercy. When the people heard the noise, they hid in their homes.
In just a short moment, it gradually became quiet outside.
Although the people in Liufang Pavilion couldn't see those movements, they could already roughly understand them just by listening to them.
Hua Yuan's face was already extremely ugly.
Only now did she understand what kind of terrifying existence she had offended...
Looking at the three people drinking tea leisurely next to her, her heart was already in her throat, as if she was afraid that the people next to her would recall her existence, and she didn't dare to make a sound for a long time.
But Liu Shengsheng suddenly said: "Listen to this noise, the people outside should have almost solved it, right?"
Yichen asked softly: "Do you need me to go out and take a look?"
Liu Shengsheng shook her head, "Don't worry, a little city lord, how dare you lie to us?"
After saying that, she stretched and asked casually: "So you are not going to tell the truth yet? Our patience is limited. If you don't tell me, I will lose one of your legs, right?"
These words were obviously spoken to the woman on the ground.
