Same situation, same way!
Threaten public opinion and fight against the imperial court!
What is this if not the White Lotus witch?
Lu Ming felt his teeth itching with hatred.
He had been handling cases for the emperor in the Metropolitan Procuratorate for many years and had never encountered such a situation.
The common people are not afraid of the imperial court and will they fight against the imperial officials?
Unimaginable.
The people were dissatisfied by the fact that the Metropolitan Procuratorate arrested members of the Xiao family regardless of the reason.
The saint raised her arms and shouted, and the people were filled with indignation and gathered around the official team.
"Sir, what should we do now?"
Lu Ming's forehead was throbbing with veins, and he pressed one hand on the handle of his knife, ready to take action at any time.
At this time, another rotten egg flew over.
Exactly the same as two days ago.
However, Lu Ming was prepared. He flicked his cloak, and a burst of energy surged out of it. The egg flew back into the crowd and broke to the ground.
Although he avoided it, this scene reminded Lu Ming of his bad memories before, and a surge of anger arose in his heart.
"Whoever dares to attack a court official will be punished as a traitor!"
A stronger infuriating energy burst out from Lu Ming's body, and the densely packed people on the long street were forced to retreat by this infuriating energy.
In the crowd, you stepped on me, I stepped on you, people fell on their backs, and there were bursts of exclamations.
Lu Waner stood in front of others. The other party's momentum could force the people back, but they could not force her back.
At this time, Lu Waner was secretly happy when she saw Lu Ming being incompetent and furious on the street, thinking that the other party really did not dare to take action against the people.
With public opinion to protect him, it is very possible to force the Metropolitan Procuratorate to make a compromise.
However, Lu Waner completely underestimated the cruelty of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Lu Ming's low voice was not just to force the people around him to retreat.
It was also to expose Lu Waner to others and give him a chance to strike.
"White Lotus Demon, the poison has gone deep, I will get rid of you, you demon girl, today!"
With an angry shout, Lu Ming drew his sword and a cold light came out. There were waves of heat on the blade, and the arrogance was billowing, seeming to ignite the air.
"grown ups!"
No one under his hand reacted.
It was said to be three days, and this was only the second day.
What will be the consequences if you take action in such a hurry?
Lu Wan'er's pupils shrank, she didn't expect the people from the Metropolitan Procuratorate to arrive so suddenly.
Moreover, looking at the opponent's posture, it is not just a simple lesson like the previous two days, but is locked on him, and he really wants to take his own life!
When Lu Wan'er realized it, she had lost the possibility of dodge. Unless she resisted head-on, she would definitely be stabbed through the heart.
Lu Ming's speed was too fast. Even the master would probably have a hard time following this.
The pressure of the other party's attack made people's hands and feet become numb and heavy, like a mountain pressing on Lu Waner's shoulders.
"Can't escape!"
Lu Waner understood her situation, but she was not afraid, and was even a little happy.
It is easy for this official to kill himself, but it is not easy to quell the public resentment in Hangzhou City. It is a pity that he will not be able to see the future scene of Hangzhou City.
Thinking about it, Lu Waner closed her eyes with a smile on her lips.
Showing a face seeking death.
Lu Ming felt bad when he saw this, he already felt that the other party was waiting for him to kill her.
Looking at the shocked expressions on the people's faces, it's likely that big trouble will occur if this knife is struck.
Lu Ming calmed down, but he could no longer hold back the knife.
This is how to do?
Suddenly, three common people rushed over shouting.
"Saint Protector!"
"puff!"
Blood spattered on the faces of Lu Waner and Lu Ming at the same time.
The hot blood stung both of them.
The bodies of the three common people bumped into Lu Waner's arms. Lu Waner was momentarily unsteady and leaned back and almost fell.
When Lu Wan'er stabilized her body and looked at the people facing her, she realized that the other party was covered in blood, from the abdomen and from the mouth. His words were slurred and his vision was gradually blurring: "Protect... Saint..."
This is a woman!
After saying that, he fell into Lu Waner's arms.
A blade of the blade was exposed and penetrated her body.
As long as it grows one inch longer, it can penetrate Lu Wan'er's body.
Three common people were stabbed into skewers.
Everyone was silent, including Lu Ming!
He never expected that the people's admiration for the White Lotus Sect had reached such a crazy level that they would actually sacrifice their lives to protect the witches of the White Lotus Sect!
Lu Ming was stunned for a moment, then drew his knife and retreated.
Three common people fell to the ground without any movement.
"You, what exactly did you do?"
Lu Waner's voice was trembling as she asked Lu Ming.
Lu Ming had killed many people by mistake, but only three common people were not in his eyes.
Although I have my own justice in my heart, mistakes made in order to complete the task are within the allowable range.
"Half of their deaths are attributable to the White Lotus Sect!" Lu Ming responded coldly, "If it weren't for the White Lotus Sect's bewitchment, they wouldn't have done such a crazy thing."
Lu Wan'er trembled after hearing this, which seemed to have touched her heart.
Lu Waner also felt that the White Lotus Sect's method of gaining people's hearts was based on seduction and deception.
Saving people from plague is a good thing.
Taking advantage of this matter to turn people into fanaticism is not true justice.
However, Lu Waner chose to turn a blind eye. She wanted to gain public support so that she could do more things in the future.
When she chose to turn a blind eye, the deaths of the people now had something to do with her.
"When you hide behind the people and go against the court, you should have expected such a result."
Lu Ming frowned and spoke coldly, just as he did when preaching to his subordinates, as if everything he did was justified.
Until a child rushed out of the crowd, crying and threw himself on the woman in the pool of blood: "Mother! Mother, wake up!"
Lu Ming took a step back. He looked at the child's back and looked familiar.
Then, a puppy barked at him, exactly the same as yesterday.
"Dog officer!"
Harsh shouts came from the crowd.
"Kill the dog official and eliminate harm for the people."
The people's emotions were ignited to the extreme, and more and more rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves flew towards them.
The people's sentiments in Hangzhou are different from other places.
The men were all stunned and shouted: "Master Lu, think of a solution quickly."
"Are the people in Hangzhou crazy? Even though people are dead, they are not afraid. Instead, they are getting more and more crazy."
"Yeah, what happened to these people?"
Hangzhou had just escaped from the despair of the plague. They had seen scenes of tens of thousands of people dying. How could they be afraid of just three people?
Not only will this not scare the people, but it will intensify their emotions.
"ah!"
An officer screamed in surprise.
"What's wrong?"
"Someone in the crowd used a knife!"
One person was covering his arm, and without any warning, that person was stabbed.
"Be careful!"
"No, you actually dare to take action. Sir, should we take action too? The people here are unreasonable, and tolerating like this is not the way to go."
Lu Ming, on the other hand, was calmer than ever before: "There are demons from the White Lotus Sect in the crowd who are fanning the flames, don't fall for the trap!"
