As soon as Yun Chao heard Wu County Lieutenant's tone, he knew that he was looking towards Xiahou Bo.
As soon as you get there, you put a big label on yourself that you want to rebel. This is to prepare for a preemptive strike.
Then, Yun Chao smiled slightly: "County Lieutenant, it's not that I want to rebel. It's Xiahou Bo who harms the people and harms innocent people. The people of Qingyang County are miserable and intolerable. It's about to lead to a civil uprising. I'm here to help The people demand justice!”
"What, a civil uprising?"
Wu County Lieutenant trembled with fright.
You can ignore everything else, but when you heard that the people were going to have a civil uprising, Wu County Lieutenant had to pay attention.
He is in charge of public security. If the people of Qingyang County really get into trouble, he, the county captain, will be the first to be held accountable.
Thinking of this, Wu County Lieutenant looked at the people eating melons on both sides, wanting to see if what Yun Chao said was true or false?
This was such an incredible sight that Wu County Lieutenant took a deep breath, and he suddenly woke up from the drunkenness!
What do some people look like? Why are they so scarlet?
As the county lieutenant in charge of public security, he was very familiar with this kind of look. He had just killed someone, or it was a red-eyed killing!
Therefore, Lieutenant Wu County turned his attention to the corpses in the middle of the yard.
With his professional vision, he quickly understood how these people died.
Most of them were stabbed to death with spears, presumably by Yun Er's subordinates.
However, there are still a small number of people who died in extremely tragic ways. There is no good spot on their bodies. It looks like they were beaten to death with bare hands!
Yun Chao's men were all armed with weapons, so it was impossible to kill people in this way.
No need to ask, they were beaten to death by the common people!
In addition, Lieutenant Wu County also saw several dead people and injured people receiving treatment.
It has become obvious that the thugs from Feng Lelou must be fighting with the people!
Seeing this, Wu Xianwei immediately became less arrogant than when he first came in.
Civil uprisings are no joke. Fortunately, Qingyang County has been relatively peaceful in recent years, but civil uprisings have occurred in several nearby places.
The superiors deal with this kind of thing very harshly. No matter what happens to the troublemakers, the officials who caused the uprising will definitely not end well!
Once a civil uprising breaks out in Qingyang County, Magistrate Sun, the local official, will certainly be unlucky, but he, the county lieutenant responsible for public security, will be even more unlucky.
Magistrate Sun was a serious scholar and was a Jinshi in the imperial examination.
Although the Dawu Dynasty established the country by force, it was the scholar-bureaucrats who governed the country. The so-called emperor and the scholar-bureaucrats ruled the world together.
Therefore, the Dawu Dynasty generally did not kill scholar-officials unless they committed heinous crimes.
Like civil uprisings, civil servants usually leave their posts and go home to rest for a while. They may come back one day.
However, the same cannot be said for military attachés such as county lieutenants. As long as they do not have the talisman of Jinshi, the lightest they can be is to be dismissed. Once the civil uprising gets too big, they will definitely be executed without negotiation!
Why Wu Xianwei didn't go home tonight was because he was on duty during the Lantern Festival.
It's just that this guy neglected his duties. After accompanying Magistrate Sun to speak, he ran to Fengle Tower to drink wine.
Now when I heard that Yun Chao said that the people might have a civil uprising, it would be strange that Wu County Lieutenant was not nervous. Once things got serious, it would not be a matter of keeping his official position. It would be good if he could save Xiang Shang's head!
Of course, Lieutenant Wu Xian was not a newbie and could not be frightened by Yun Chao's words.
Although he discovered that something was wrong with the people, he must not be soft on face, otherwise the unscrupulous people would see the opportunity and things would become more troublesome.
"Hmph, Yun Er, I think the people are very good and good people. If there is going to be any civil unrest, don't talk nonsense!"
Yun Chao pointed at the dead people and the crying relatives next to them, then pointed at Xiahou Bo, and then pointed at the little girls held in the arms of their families:
"County Lieutenant, the old thief Xiahou listened to the bewitchment of the demon, used the heart blood of an innocent girl as a medicine introduction, and prepared the medicine to treat his son's illness. After being captured by the people, he not only did not repent, but also let his thugs kill the people. Do you think he is going to cause a civil uprising?"
"this……"
As the chief officer in charge of public security in Qingyang County, County Lieutenant Wu had heard some news about Xiahou Bo's relationship with human traffickers, but he didn't take it to heart.
Isn't it normal for a brothel owner to buy and sell people? What's all the fuss about?
Besides, those daughters from poor families are extremely lucky to be able to enter Fengle Tower. Being crushed by thousands of people is better than starving to death.
But now I know that Xia Houbo is really good at playing tricks. It’s not impossible to kidnap and sell children. There are many people who don’t have enough food to eat. Just spend money to buy them. Why do you have to kidnap these children from well-off families? Isn’t this just looking for trouble?
Wu County Lieutenant looked around and found that none of the abducted little girls were from poor backgrounds. They were all made of pink and jade, and it seemed at first glance that they had not suffered much.
Even if there are some who dress simply, they are not serious poor people. Poor families cannot raise such girls.
In fact, Wu County Lieutenant was wrong. Aunt Wang's daughter Xiaoguo had suffered hardship and poverty before.
However, after Yun Chao traveled through time, Xiaoguo lived a fairy-like life, eating and drinking delicious food every day. As a result, he became pink and tender, making him a rare sight.
Another thing Wu Xianwei didn't expect was that Xiahou Bo abducted these girls not to reserve girls for Feng Lelou, but to prepare medicine for his son.
I don’t know what Xiahou Bo is thinking about using a child’s blood as an introduction to medicine. Isn’t this nonsense?
Who doesn't have children? If Xiahou Bo continues to suffer like this, who knows whether he will be the next unlucky one. It would be strange not to arouse public outrage.
Thinking of this, Lieutenant Wu's tone became softer.
Although Xiahou Bo was wrong, as his biggest financial backer, Wu County Lieutenant could not just watch him suffer misfortune.
"Yunchao, I know you are out of public interest, but we are all officials of the Great Wu Dynasty. We must provide evidence when doing things. We cannot just listen to wind and rain. Did you see Xiahou Bo abducting children with your own eyes? You cannot listen to one side of the story. Just arbitrarily say that he is a bad person, you know?"
In Wu County Lieutenant's view, Yun Er was young and must have imitated the so-called Qingtian Master in the play after hearing that Xiahou Bo abducted children and came here to enjoy his official career.
From the looks of it, the little girl was not killed, so there should be room for change.
Unexpectedly, Yun Chao not only did not admit his mistake, but also smiled coldly: "County Lieutenant, who said I just listened to other people's words? My sister was abducted by this old Xiahou thief. If I hadn't arrived in time, she would be here now. She might have been killed!"
Wu County Lieutenant: "..."
