Ye Qingluan suddenly ordered everyone to return to the palace immediately.
This order really confused everyone. Didn't they have to dig three feet into the ground?
But no one dared to question this order.
Everyone quickly set off and returned to the palace.
On the road, Ye Qingluan took the lead and drove towards the palace, followed by the others.
Suo Yi caught up with Cao Qingyan and asked, "Master Cao, what do you mean, the empress? The female insect is not looking for her anymore?"
Cao Qingyan also looked confused and shook his head and said he didn't know.
On the street not far from the palace, Ye Qingluan suddenly stopped and looked at the street with his phoenix eyes.
The area near the palace has been banned, but people are allowed to move freely outside of the ban, and it is also a market.
There were not many people in the market, only a few common people, and not many merchants setting up stalls.
Ye Qingluan glanced around and his eyes fell on a vendor selling porcelain.
He got off his horse and walked straight over.
She looked at the twos and threes of porcelain on the vendor's slip, and suddenly her red lips slightly opened, "How do you sell the porcelain behind you?"
The vendor was stunned, shook his head and said, "I'm not selling this, it's for my family."
There's something wrong with this guy!
What Ye Qingluan noticed when he first saw him just now was not because of anything else, but because he didn't look like a merchant.
When the vendor saw the customers, he was not eager to shout and sell his goods. He only had evasive eyes and was unwilling to open his mouth.
"It's you!" Ye Qingluan's expression turned cold, and a long sword came out of its sheath, directly touching the merchant's neck. If he moved even slightly, the merchant's head would definitely fall to the ground.
"ah!"
"What are you going to do? I'm a good person!" the merchant explained sternly.
Cao Qingyan and Suo Yi also ran over quickly and pushed the vendor to the ground regardless of the situation.
Even at this time, the vendors are still arguing, "Come and see, everyone, there is no law in Jiangnan Province, and the Dafeng Dynasty has no justice. They are armed and committing murder in the streets!"
When the other common people and traders around heard this, they all immediately gathered around and started talking about it.
Suo Yihu stared and roared: "Bold, we are officials of the imperial court, and we are ordered to arrest the rebels, and the rest of us are still waiting for you to retreat!"
The merchant still refused to admit defeat, "Can the imperial officials commit murders in the street? Is there any royal law? Are we ordinary people not human beings? Come and tell me what crime I, a seller, have committed!"
really.
When the people heard this, they all started to accuse, "That's right, what happened to the court officials? The court officials can't bully others!"
"Even so, the court doesn't treat us ordinary people as human beings."
"Isn't that right? We ordinary people have suffered enough, but the imperial court still imposes excessive taxes on us. Is it possible that they must force us to death?"
"..."
Ye Qingluan heard the sound and immediately explained, "Everyone, the imperial court has never treated the common people as human beings, but some thieves pretend to be common people and do things that violate their conscience."
The merchant was dissatisfied, "You say I am a thief, do you have any evidence?"
The people around him also sided with the traders, "That's right, do you have any evidence?"
Cao Qingyan and Suo Yi immediately had nothing to say. There was indeed no evidence.
They just watched Ye Qingluan take action and followed suit.
Don’t you just want evidence?
for you!
Ye Qingluan smiled calmly, "Everyone, don't you want evidence? I will show it to you."
She immediately walked behind the vendor, and lightly ran her green-white fingers across the wooden boxes. The porcelain in these boxes was genuine, but some of the porcelain had hidden secrets inside.
Sudden.
Her hand stopped and she patted the box vigorously, "That's it, open it!"
The merchant suddenly became anxious and wanted to resist. Do you think Cao Qingyan and Suo Yi are living for a living?
Without saying a word, he punched the ground with two fists, causing blood to flow from his mouth and nose.
Cao Qingyan went over in person and opened the box carefully. There was a small porcelain inside, surrounded by some water and unmelted ice.
He raised his head and said, "Mom, there's nothing?"
The merchant took the opportunity to fan the flames and said, "Everyone, please open your eyes and take a look. There is nothing. They are just bullying us people because they are officials of the imperial court. You make the decision for me. There is no law in this world."
Ye Qingluan smiled softly, "You really don't shed tears until you see the coffin, you are so stubborn."
"Cao Qingyan, pour the contents of the porcelain into the bowl."
"No!" Cao Qingyan immediately turned the porcelain over, and a fleshy silkworm chrysalis fell into the bowl, still squirming.
"ah!"
"What's this?"
"Like a silkworm chrysalis?"
"..."
Ye Qingluan immediately explained: "Yes, this is silkworm chrysalis, but there is another saying among the people that it is golden silkworm Gu. This insect is poisonous."
"ah!"
As soon as this statement came out, there was an uproar around him.
Suo Yi took the opportunity to explain: "These people are southwest barbarians. They want to use poison to poison our Central Plains, so that the people of the Gale Dynasty will be poisoned and die."
"What, these bastards, I'm still at fault for this."
"That's it, what are these things? Let's not talk about it. Kill him."
"Yes, blood debt must be paid with blood, kill him!"
"..."
The people around him were immediately filled with anger and rage. Just now, they were attacking the merchant and wanted to kill him in the blink of an eye.
Ye Qingluan quickly stopped him, "Everyone, please be patient. We are here to arrest these thieves under the order of the emperor. Your Majesty is furious because of this matter. All the people in the world are his subjects. Your Majesty will never let you suffer." This is a disaster."
These people were simple and kind-hearted, and they immediately knelt down to plead guilty, saying, "Long live my emperor!"
Cao Qingyan was stunned. He looked at the female insect in the bowl and said in disbelief: "I am ignorant. I don't know how the empress knew that this female insect would be on this street or in the hands of a porcelain vendor."
Ye Qingluan smiled mysteriously, "The secret must not be revealed."
Then he ordered, "Bring the coffin shop owner, the old woman, and the merchant to the palace."
"promise!"
Afterwards, they quickly rushed to the palace. Now that they had caught the female insect, how to deal with the female insect was the key.
This can only be left to Li Yichuan.
But just as they were about to leave, the vendor suddenly broke free and rushed towards Ye Qingluan with all his strength, trying to take Ye Qingluan as a hostage.
"Mom, be careful!"
Cao Qingyan roared, blocked him directly with his body, and raised his hand with a palm.
"Bang" sound.
The merchant flew out directly.
Seeing this, the shopkeeper of the Coffin Shop subconsciously blurted out, "Third Brother!"
The vendor got up, blood gushing out from his mouth. He was in a state of embarrassment. He coughed violently and vomited out pieces of blood scabs. He kept roaring, "Kill me, kill me!"
Cao Qingyan grabbed his hair, dragged him directly to the middle of the road, raised his hand and slapped him twice, "Fuck, who is your superior? I will interrogate you here today, let your colleagues See clearly, this is the outcome of rebellion!”
"Don't tell me, tell me quickly!"
The sound was high-pitched and could be heard everywhere.
The people around him were surprised and secretly afraid.
Ye Qingluan looked at Cao Qingyan, and the two of them couldn't help but smile knowingly.
This is fishing!
The bait is already there, it would be a shame not to fish.
These dead soldiers of the Zheng family are not afraid of death, so there is no use taking them back. It is better to take advantage of this opportunity to go fishing, and maybe there will be an unexpected harvest.
The vendor trembled slightly and screamed, "I...I don't know!"
Suoyi rolled up his sleeves, treated him as a sandbag, aimed at his vital parts, and beat him crazily.
"Puff!"
Two mouthfuls of blood spurted out, and the vendor finally couldn't hold it anymore and screamed in horror, "I...I said it, I said it all!"
As soon as these words came out, the eyes of everyone around him lit up.
It worked so quickly.
If we could find out the leader of the Zheng family's secret operations in Jiangnan Province, it would be a real success once and for all.
If the Zheng family wants to build it again, I'm afraid it won't be possible for more than ten years. By then, the day lilies will be cold.
Ye Qingluan was also stunned for a moment. He didn't expect to succeed in questioning so quickly.
It just so happens that it would be great if the dead members of the Zheng family could be uprooted.
This can be regarded as settling Li Yi's worries. When Li Yi wakes up, this will be the best gift.
Just as he was about to speak.
The bait Ye Qingluan and the others were waiting for arrived.
"Bang bang bang!"
From the people watching in the distance, there were sudden bursts of horrifying screams.
Then countless footsteps came from all directions.
There are quite a few people.
"who!"
Cao Qingyan roared, quickly stood in front of Ye Qingluan, and whispered, "Your Majesty is wise, the fish has taken the bait."
"Okay!" Ye Qingluan said immediately, "Take the female insect back and give it to Li Yichuan. Your Majesty's safety will be left to you. There must be no mistakes."
Cao Qingyan was stunned, "Then here..."
"You don't have to worry about it, I'm enough for you!" Ye Qingluan didn't take these Zheng family dead men seriously at all.
At this moment, the sound of an attack roared.
An arrow shot through the air with a blue luster. The target was extremely tricky and the speed was extremely fast. The target was Ye Qingluan.
