Concubine Shu, Xiang Yichun and others also hurried over. Xiang Yichun said: "Master Governor, those people are carrying hoes and axes, and there are hundreds of them."
"Then Xing Tianming and his team just shouted and couldn't stop them at all. On the contrary, they only aggravated the people's resentment."
Concubine Shu glanced at Ji Yunlan, wondering if Xiao Chen had made it clear to her, but she didn't care too much at the moment. She ran forward and hugged Xiao Chen, and whispered: "A knife and ax have no eyes, it's still not appropriate right now." If we stay in the post house longer, why don’t we go out and hide first, and wait until these mobs disperse on their own.”
Zhang Dongyang also caught up with him, his brows furrowed and his eyes filled with a heavy look, "That's right... Shu... the young lady is right, Governor Xiao, these mobs are different from the gangsters. We can't use military force to suppress them." , the top priority right now is to protect your own safety first."
"As for the mob chaos, I will just find a way to quell it for you."
He didn't expect that he would encounter riots when he first arrived here, but fortunately, he had been a frontier official and had some experience in appeasing the people's emotions. He thought he should be able to resolve the crisis.
Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the increasingly thick dust and smoke outside the post house, and asked a profound question, "If this riot is indeed caused by the common people, then what will happen to you, Mr. Zhang?" The method of applying reason to emotions will naturally work..."
"But, what if these people are all under the instigation of others?"
"You are not their purpose here, how can they be willing to listen?"
Zhang Dongyang was slightly startled, and was indeed stopped by Xiao Chen's question.
At this moment, he also thought, how could this civil unrest come at such a timely time?
And although Xiao Chen is not a gentleman, Xiao Chen is still not convinced of the Jiangdong corruption case. How can the people petition for Mr. Qingtian?
The sky above Jiangdong Road is filled with thick clouds, but how can there be blue sky?
"So, Brother Xiao, what are you going to do?"
Zhang Dongyang asked with a frown.
Outside the door, the voices of the mob became more and more intense.
"Let Master Qingtian go!"
"Get out of Jiangdong, the eunuch!"
"The people of Jiangdong and the eunuchs are inseparable!"
"Come on... Folks, let's seek justice for Mr. Qingtian!"
Cries of killing arose and public resentment boiled.
Xiao Chen's eyes became even darker, and there was an extremely cold killing intent in his eyes, and his voice was also cold and ruthless, "What's so difficult about this?"
"Since they are a mob, just kill them."
"What?"
Suddenly, Zhang Dongyang and Concubine Shu asked in surprise at the same time.
Xiao Chen's eyebrows were as cold as ever, showing no sign of wavering.
As he spoke, he gave a cold command, "Xiang Yichun, call some Lin brothers and kill them!"
"No mercy!"
"yes!"
Xiang Yichun immediately agreed, and his decisive voice combined with Xiao Chen's fierceness was like the roar of Shura's war sword.
Soon, the mob rushed to the door of the post house, swearing one after another, and seemed to have made up their minds to use the strength of the crowd to drive Xiao Chen out of Jiangdong.
"We want justice!"
"Grudge, come out to see us! Don't act like a coward!"
"Let Mr. Li go and leave Jiangdong!"
boom!
There was a kick at the door.
Xiang Yichun led the Lin brothers and rushed out.
"Anyone who offends the imperial envoy will be killed!"
"Those who are disrupting the government must be killed!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
Several roars were like a final warning to these desperate mobs.
However, these mobs, who had clearly been ordered to act as puppets, were like mad dogs with red eyes, biting people continuously.
Xiang Yichun and others were ruthless with their swords and shouted, "The governor has an order, the mob will kill without mercy!"
Immediately, he rushed into the crowd and began to kill without mercy.
In an instant, there was blood in front of the door of Jiangdong Post House, and the screams and curses shook the sky.
Xiao Chen stood coldly at the door of the other courtyard. The tall pavilion allowed him to see the Shura scene on the ten-mile long street outside.
Zhang Chaoyang, Ji Yunlan, Zizhu, and the two personal women all stood behind Xiao Chen. Seeing this scene, they all had extremely heavy looks on their faces.
Especially Ji Yunlan, who was quarreling with Xiao Chen just now, couldn't help turning her head to look at Xiao Chen. She felt a deep chill emerging from the bottom of her heart. This feeling was something she had never felt before. It seemed to be called, Fear.
Thinking of this, Ji Yunlan hurriedly shook his head to get rid of the emotion, grabbed Xiao Chen and asked: "Xiao Chenzi, who sent these people?"
"He is so insidious, I will never spare him!"
Xiao Chen sneered and looked up at the sky in Jiangdong Road.
The cloud-green sky is still clear and unstained, and it has not turned any color because of the chaos in Weiyang City.
"Don't worry, I will not spare you any mercy."
Xiao Chen could predict that today's civil unrest was just the beginning of the big fish biting the hook and shaking around.
In the end, it depends on who is stronger, whether it drags itself into the water and drowns, or whether it catches it and kills it.
"Jiang Rongfeng, do you really think you can kill this governor?"
"Then let's fight and see."
The shouts of killing and cursing shook the sky. Facing such masters as Xiang Yichun, few of these mobs retreated. They actually used the human sea tactic and delayed Xiao Chen's killing team for a long time.
Blood spread from the door of Jiangdong Posthouse, winding and thick.
Outside the door, the ten-mile long street was naturally filled with rivers of blood, a scene of human tragedy.
However, the more they looked at it, the initial disapproval disappeared in the eyes of Zhang Dongyang, Shu Fei, and Ji Hongluan.
What was replaced was a kind of resentment towards the instigator and admiration for Xiao Chen's decisiveness in killing.
"Brother Xiao, you are indeed invisible to others and beyond the reach of others." Zhang Dongyang stood with his hands behind his hands, looking at the blood mist outside the door from a distance, and felt that at this moment, he really mentioned Xiao Chen With a bit of respect, he said, "If it were my job to do this..."
He did not say any more, but looked solemnly at the sky over Jiangdong Road, feeling a sense of joy that a mountain rain was about to come, and a green tile suddenly appeared under the sky, filling the air.
Xiao Chen is bound to become a great person.
It's just that I have a different stance from this person after all. I really don't know if I can be Xiao Chen's opponent if the two sides confront each other one day.
Concubine Shu subconsciously held Xiao Chen tightly. At this moment, when she looked into Xiao Chen's eyes, it was no longer just a woman's feelings for a man, but also a kind of awe and stability that was almost similar to being under the high sky.
Even before, she had never felt this way about Chu Yanwu, who was the emperor.
"But, Xiao Chen, I'm afraid that after today's crisis is resolved, Jiangdong Road will be in chaos from now on." Ji Hongluan, with worry in his eyes, couldn't help but said in a deep voice, "Although these thugs are dead, I'm afraid their corpses will look like It's like gunpowder, buried all over Jiangdong Road, it could blow you to pieces at any time!"
Xiao Chen smiled calmly, and there was a sober determination in his eyes that he was alone in the world, even though thousands of people were there, he said, "Don't worry, as long as the weather in Jiangdong Road changes, all the gunpowder will turn into muffled thunder."
"And I," Xiao Chen, looked at his pair of hands that could change everything, said coldly and firmly, "As long as I take action, I can turn the world of Jiangdong Road upside down."
