However.
Things were not as simple as Xie Yang thought.
When the news of Qin Changfeng's invasion of Shuzhou spread, the anger, excitement, and murderous intent that had been suppressed by the whole city were suddenly released.
A group of people appeared on the street in an instant, and headed directly towards the Pei family's house. These people, among them are the rangers who are devoted to the country, some are the people who have been suppressed by the white fear of the black-clad guards in the past few days, and some are the people who have been left alive by Xie Yang to purge his political enemies in the past few days. Some were holding swords, some were holding hoes, and some were holding tables, chairs, and benches.
These days.
They've had enough.
As soon as the King of Shu died, Xie Yang immediately came to power. Relying on the black guards and imperial guards under his control, he carried out ruthless killings in the city. As long as they were the old ministers of the King of Shu and supported the eldest son Xie Zhen, they were all detained. prison.
This naturally brought great panic to many people in the city.
If this is Xie Yang, then that's all.
But you, a conspirator, rely on the Imperial Guards to make these people surrender. No matter how hard you try at this time, the rebound will be terrible.
so.
When the Imperial Guards were about to go in and arrest Pei Yanran, a group of people came over with great momentum.
"What are you going to do!"
"Get out of here!"
"Don't embarrass the Pei family!"
This rolling crowd was roaring hysterically. At this time, the ferocious expressions on their faces seemed to be venting their dissatisfaction with Xie Yang and the Imperial Guards.
"Don't come over!"
The leader of the Imperial Guard who was responsible for monitoring the Pei family suddenly changed his expression. There were only over 2,000 people on their side, surrounding the Pei family from all directions. However, at this time, people began to surge on the street, and soon fifty or sixty thousand people gathered.
The guards, holding their weapons, retreated step by step.
"Get out of Pei's house!"
"Don't embarrass Miss Pei!"
"You bunch of rebellious lackeys!"
These people were not afraid of the weapons of the Imperial Guards. When people raised their arms and shouted, the crowd began to rush over.
"this……"
"grown ups?"
The Imperial Guards all panicked.
At this time, what they faced was not the rangers who flew into the flames, but the anger of the people! Not only that, these guards may even face their own family members, their own parents, their own friends...
How can they kill people?
then.
As these people kept attacking, they kept retreating.
The general didn't know what to do and could only let his subordinates resist. Because he knew that once bloodshed appeared in this situation, it would be really troublesome. As the saying goes, the law does not punish everyone, these people came here with the intention of making a big deal out of this matter.
Who knows.
These people don't give them a chance at all.
In the crowd, a young ranger shouted: "Protect Miss Pei, protect me in Sichuan and Shu!"
After saying this, he jumped up without fear of death, and his whole body fell directly on the spear in the hand of the imperial guard. The spear immediately passed through his chest. When the ranger died, there was still a satisfied smile on his lips.
boom!
Is it okay this time?
There was blood!
Because there were too many people, they didn't care whether it was the guards who struck first or the rangers who hit it themselves. As long as people see blood, they seem to lose their minds.
"superior!"
"Kill these bastards!"
That cry of "protect Miss Pei, protect me Sichuan and Shu" instantly ignited the enthusiasm of the whole audience. The surging crowd of 50,000 to 60,000 people rushed over as if there were no obstacles. Now, no matter how well-trained the Imperial Guards are, they are no match for them. There is a sea of people, no fear of weapons.
When the general saw this situation, his expression changed drastically: "Let's go, get out of their way!"
The Imperial Guards breathed a sigh of relief. They didn't dare to fight against the crazy people and got out of the way.
then.
The Pei family was actually protected like this.
People were already surrounding the Pei family's house in circles from all sides.
When Pei Yanran saw this scene, her delicate body trembled and she burst into tears.
Don’t you need to die?
She looked into the distance happily and murmured: "Changfeng, have you seen it?"
Come quickly.
People's support can be expected.
The future can be expected, and everything can be expected.
…
"Your Highness, Your Highness, those people are crazy, those people are crazy!"
Rolling and crawling, a dog's legs came in covered in sweat.
"What did you say? Who is crazy?"
Xie Yang jumped up and glared.
Only those who came here told the truth about what happened at the door of Pei's house.
The more he listened, the uglier Xie Yang's face became.
boom!
"This group of unruly people, unruly people, and untouchables!"
Xie Yang was so angry that he almost spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Your Highness, Your Highness..."
Others quickly offered comfort.
One person said: "Your Highness, it is a taboo to ignore public opinion at this time!"
"Yes, Your Highness, calm down, Your Highness, calm down!"
Xie Yang gritted his teeth: "Big taboo?"
"What is a big taboo? I am already the king of Shu. Do you still want to look at the faces of these untouchables? Pei Yanran, this witch, must be taken down by me!"
"King Shu, you must not do this!"
"King of Shu!"
A group of people were so frightened that they knelt down in fear.
Someone said: "Your Highness, there are many cities in Shu, and the governors are all waiting and watching. Excessive killing at this time is not a good strategy!"
Xie Yang Lei was furious: "Then tell me what to do, what to do!"
Everyone looked at each other.
There was a long silence.
One of them stood up and said, "Your Highness, Qin Changfeng is about to attack the city. I think we should consider retreating from the enemy first!"
Xie Yang's eyes lit up: "What do you mean?"
The man took a deep breath: "Your Highness, the other governors of Shuzhou are watching the fire from across the bank. Qin Changfeng's 65,000-strong army is majestic..."
"us……"
"We should consider asking for help."
The whole place suddenly fell silent.
atmosphere.
Suddenly it became weird.
Asking for help?
Who can I call for help in this situation?
Xie Yang has only taken control of Shuzhou not long ago, and local officials still have not come to report on their duties. This means that Xie Yang calls himself the King of Shu, and no one else has recognized him yet.
Those people also held on to their military power one by one and waited for the situation to change.
Only when everything is settled will they admit who is the King of Shu.
so……
At this time, if you ask for help.
There was only one place to call for help.
That was the Nanman army in Jiangzhou City.
so.
Here comes the problem.
If we ask for help, it will be revealed that the Nanman people came here in collusion with Xie Yang, and they will surely be despised by the world. Moreover, when the Southern Barbarians came to Jiangzhou, they would definitely be plundering everywhere and destroying all living beings. This will further aggravate Xie Yang's sin.
but……
Why not ask for help?
Can this city of Shuzhou really be able to stop the tiger and wolf troops of Liangzhou?
Everyone.
They all held their breath and looked at Xie Yang.
Sudden.
Someone has realized it.
this……
Could it be that Liu Zhizhou, who has not yet entered Shu, set up a trap?
