On the road from Miao Village to Guangzhou, a group of fast horses roared past! The hard hoofs of the horses stepped on the loess road, bringing up a cloud of dust, like a real yellow dragon, heading straight towards the city of Guangzhou!

"Why did you take action so quickly! Didn't you say wait a minute!"

Xiao Han, who was riding a horse, had a look of anxiety on his face, and his body was rising and falling with the galloping horse. Before that, he had never thought that such a big thing would happen in Guangzhou city just after he went out for a day. !

Overnight, the mansions of three aristocratic families were leveled. Even if these three mansions were empty shells, it was not something that an old county magistrate with only a few subordinates could do!

You know, he is not just himself and Liu Hongji, he has the emperor behind him! Those aristocratic families would not give any face to a mere county magistrate!

"Master Hou! We don't need to be in such a hurry, right? Aren't all those mansions destroyed? We can slow down and be careful!"

Next to him, Xiaodong, who was also following closely on horseback, watched his Marquis carefully. Every time he saw him shaking, the corner of his mouth would twitch, for fear that Xiao Han would fall off the horse again if he did something wrong!

"Bullshit! What do you know!" Xiao Han was upset now, so he cursed without looking back.

He is now afraid that other people will think like Xiaodong, thinking that after destroying a few shabby houses, everything will be fine! The Xun Mansion and the Nankang Mansion should all disperse like the macaques that fell down a big tree!

If things were really that easy, then Xiao Li would have a headache even if he mentioned the family!

To put it bluntly: Those mansions in Guangzhou City are, at best, just a symbol of where the three families are located.

Ruining them may not even scratch the itch for these three huge families! Not to mention the pain!

"My Lord Zhang, you really find something for me to do!" Xiao Han sighed secretly in his heart, gritted his teeth again, and swung two whips at the horse's buttocks, and the horse underneath him was in pain. He raised his head and hissed, and his speed increased a bit again.

Guangzhou City

After the riots last night, the city of Guangzhou has become extremely quiet now.

In the past, the streets crowded with vendors and pedestrians were empty, with only messy debris lying on the ground, as if to accuse people of the "atrocities" committed last night.

Last night, when the third brother brought the leader of the Tiger Alliance he met outside the city back to the city, and also presented several Xunfu generals who had been captured alive to the county magistrate, the people in Xicheng completely rioted!

The poor Tiger League guy didn't even say a word before he was torn to pieces by the angry people!

After seeing this scene, the few generals who were captured alive, just like the previous few minions, were immediately frightened and turned pale. They hurriedly poured beans out of bamboo tubes and told everything they knew. come out!

In this process, they not only confessed their young master, but also revealed the secret affairs of Xun Mansion, Nankang Mansion, and Nan Yi Mansion, which had long been colluded together and were all led by their own young master!

When they heard that the people who ordered the Tiger Alliance to burn down their homes were actually Xunfu, Nankangfu, and Nanyifu, they used to be aloof and could only let them look up to them.

The extremely angry people were stunned for a moment, and with a loud roar of "Fight them", they rushed towards the three families regardless!

What a joke, their families are gone and people are dead, what else can they be afraid of?

die?

Haha, for them who have nothing, perhaps death is the real relief! It is better to be reincarnated early than to slowly freeze and starve to death in the following days!

Of course, even if they die, they will have someone to support them! When he gets to the Lord of Hell, he will be a heroic ghost who died for revenge, not some coward who died in vain!

As a result, people all over the city saw a scene that they would never forget!

Countless people with ragged clothes and dark faces were like dense marching ants, running straight along the street and rushing into the offices of Xunfu and other three houses!

The servants and guards in the yamen wanted to resist at first, but the numbers were not at the same level at all! There were less than a hundred of them at most, but more than a thousand of the people came? Ten thousand people?

Some fierce generals just drew their swords and knocked over a few, but they were hugged tightly by others who rushed up. What was left were countless fists, and the soles of their shoes were infinitely magnified in sight! Once the crowd passed, they would have been beaten to the point where they could no longer breathe.

Three mansions were destroyed almost at the same time!

The people in the mansion were dying and injured! Everything in the house was smashed clean by the angry people.

If the old county magistrate hadn't tried his best to stop it, even the house would have been burned to rubble by the people!

This is a disaster, a real disaster for the city of Guangzhou!

Because in the end, it was far more than just these three mansions that suffered!

Facts have proved that when chaos is fermented, no one can control the crowd blinded by hatred, and no one can predict what the consequences will be!

For example, this time, after the three houses were smashed, the families living next to them also suffered the same disaster. They were all smashed up by the indiscriminate people!

At dawn, after the old county magistrate counted the losses, he discovered that in addition to the three families of Xunfu, Nankang, and Nanyi, there were actually more than ten families of innocent people affected!

The entire West City was reduced to rubble, and a small half of the North City was also smashed to pieces! All the people in the city were hiding at home, for fear that if they were not careful, their homes would also be destroyed.

The old county magistrate knew that this was a very bad phenomenon!

Not only because this riot hurt innocent people, but also not because the young master in those people's mouth did not appear on the list of victims.

It's because the impact of this behavior is too bad!

This time, the people vented their anger and took revenge! So if the people suffer injustice next time and they follow the same example as this time and gather people to take revenge without authorization, what will the government do? What else do you need from Datang Law?

Directly imitating the pre-Qin time, the knights traveled everywhere, forgetting all the grudges!

"Send the order, the whole city is under lockdown! Send fast horses to the surrounding counties for help! Allocate manpower! Also, is Xiao Hou back?"

Finally, the old county magistrate with swollen eyes handed a few letters to the third brother who was standing quietly aside. He himself sighed deeply and looked at the list of losses one by one. on the official hat beside the table.

He doesn't know if his head will ever wear it again. This time he got into such a big trouble that even Xiao Hou might not be able to protect him.

"The people sent to inform Xiaohou cannot enter the Miao Village. We still don't know when Xiaohou will come back!"

The third brother holding the letter hesitated for a few times, then gritted his teeth and said: "Sir! I still think it's inappropriate for you to let those rioting people go! You should keep the leading people and wait for Xiao Hou to track them down... "
