Chapter 404 Heroism

Princess Leping's complexion changed drastically when she saw such a rebellious battle for the first time.

But after a short period of panic, there was an uncontrollable anger. She glared at the rebels who broke into the county government office, and sternly reprimanded: "You are plotting treason! If you group of rebellious officials and thieves stop now, this princess can still I beg my father to forgive you! If you persist in your obsession, you will end up being torn apart!"

Helian Linyu glanced at the angry princess, and said to herself that the old emperor raised the princess really well—he was naive and ignorant of worldly affairs. Rebellion is no joke. People can encircle the mansion with soldiers, which means that they are determined to mobilize troops to force the palace, how could they stop at this time?

Sure enough, the leading military master immediately laughed when he heard Princess Leping's words, and teased disdainfully: "Oh, I'm so scared..."

A group of rebels laughed.

Princess Leping's cheeks flushed.

She still wanted to **** her off again, but Mu Guichen, the guard standing in front of her, shook her head at her.

Princess Leping was slightly taken aback. Although she was extremely ashamed and dissatisfied, she still kept silent.

Pei Yi watched all this with cold eyes, without saying a word.

The opponent has three hundred soldiers, and they come suddenly.

The county yamen servants only have about a hundred people in total, so they are not superior in number, coupled with the sudden response, and their own quality is not high, of course they are not the opponents of this group of rebels, so they were quickly captured alive.

However, it is not destined to be captured alive.

Ever since Princess Leping led a group of wounded guards to the county government to ask for help, Pei Yi expected that there would be a day when soldiers would surround the county government, but she just didn't take any possible countermeasures in advance.

Pei Yi suddenly felt a little sad.

Fortunately, she still felt that Huo Yuan was ruthless, but she herself was also ruthless.

It was precisely because she had long expected that the fifth prince would jump over the wall and dispatch troops to force the palace, so she deliberately relaxed the defense of the county government—for the convenience of the opponent's soldiers to surround the county government.

Only when the fifth prince controls the county government, will he continue to dispatch troops to Wanshou County to go to Kyoto boldly.

Only when this group of rebels actually arrives in the capital, will the suspicious and conceited old emperor really see the reality—will he really kill the Fifth Prince.

In order to get rid of such a political opponent, she is so cruel - she would even deliberately condone the opponent's rebellion.

There will be casualties in rebellion, and there is a high probability that it will affect innocent people, but she didn't care that much.

She was just measuring the outcome—because she was sure the rebels wouldn't make it, so she indulged.

Just imagine, hundreds of soldiers can’t kill a single Princess Leping, not even a single guard, at most they just hurt the guards—you want to rebel with such a fighting power?

I really want to fart.

"Lord Pei, hand over the key to the treasury." The military master clasped his hands in a huff.

Pei Yi wished that the group of rebels could take the food from the treasury and rebel without worry, so she was naturally willing to give the treasury the key.

However, it is still necessary to "pretend" at this time, otherwise she will become a magistrate without principles and responsibilities when she is liquidated afterwards, and her political career will be over.

So, Pei Yi brewed up her feelings and spat hard with a straight face: "Bah!"

She straightened her waist, put her hands behind her back, and immediately exuded an air of indomitable spirit.

"You **** that are not as good as pigs and dogs!" Pei Yi reprimanded righteously, "The government treasury is the lifeblood of a county, and all the grain taxes handed in by the common people are in it! You want to move the things in the government treasury now. It’s killing the lives of the people! I, Pei, as the parent official of Wanshou County, if I can’t even save the lives of the people, then am I worthy of standing in today’s position?!”

Master Jun was scolded face-to-face, and he couldn't hold back his face. He pulled out his long knife and pointed it at Pei Yi with a "clank", and sneered, "I'm going to kill you, the 'parent officer' today!"

Qi Sha's face turned cold, and he immediately drew his sword out of its sheath to protect Pei Yi.

Huo Yuan also looked cold, and immediately drew out his sword and retreated to Pei Yi's side to protect him.

During the Zhou dynasty, noble men usually wore swords as decorations.

Xiao Junji immediately drew out his sword and stood in front of Pei Yi, his face was cruel and ruthless, without the slightest affectation in his usual manner.

He Lian Linyu didn't have a weapon on him, but he directly took out the saber of a government servant next to him and took it into his hand, and calmly stood in front of Pei Yi.

Under such circumstances, the military master did not dare to act rashly.

Pei Yi refused to just stop.

Since she wants to be a good official with "crack and iron bones", she must be iron-boned to the end.

She knew that the military master didn't dare to kill her at all, so she stood up boldly, puffed up her chest and cursed: "Why am I, Pei, afraid of you gangsters and thieves?! If you kill me, Pei, can you kill me?" Have you controlled Wanshou County? You are dreaming! If it weren’t for the surprise attack by you group of rebels, how could all the brothers in our government office have been captured by you! There is no one in Wanshou County who is greedy for life and afraid of death! You want to take food and money from the treasury As materials for the rebellion, I, Wanshou County, will not give them!"

Those government servants who were captured alive were originally terrified in their hearts, but when they heard Pei Yi's words, they were suddenly aroused with a heroic spirit, and a look of resignation to death appeared on their faces.

He Lian Linyu glanced at Pei Jiasanlang who was being protected behind him, and the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up slightly.

Xiao Junji frowned, and calmly kicked Helian Linyu's toes lightly.

Helian Linyu understood, immediately restrained that smile, and put on a very serious expression.

Master Jun was so angry that his eyes were about to burst into flames. His expression became ferocious, and he said fiercely: "What a Mr. Pei who is not afraid of death! Do you think I can't do anything if you don't hand over the key?!"

The military master raised his knife and walked up to a captured yamen servant, and put the knife directly on the yamen servant's neck. He laughed grinningly and said, "If Mr. Pei doesn't hand over the key, I'll cut off his head! Anyway, there are so many yamen servants here. , I'll cut them one by one! Whenever Mr. Pei is willing to hand over the key, I'll stop!"

After the words fell, the military master raised his knife, as if he was about to cut down.

Pei Yi's pupils shrank suddenly, and she shouted, "Stop!"

The minds of these yamen servants were agitated, and their heroism was actually aroused.

The yamen servant who was about to be killed, Dayi, said awe-inspiringly: "Master Pei, don't worry about me! Isn't it just a death?! My life is not a pity! The keys to the treasury must not fall into the hands of these rebels!"

Other captured yamen servants also said impassionedly: "That's right! You can kill or cut whatever you want!"

"It's Zhang San's good fortune that I, Zhang San, can die today. If you want to kill me, kill me!"
