After the soldiers and civilians killed Gao Le, they rushed straight into Gao Le's mansion to search for property. Li Xiaofei and Murong Ling helped Gao Le and wanted to take him away. Gao Le struggled with all their strength: "Gaochang's country is gone, it's all over, you should leave quickly.

"After saying that, he suddenly stood up and rushed towards the crowd. Murong Ling held his hand but it was too late. Countless spears stabbed him, and Gao Le died immediately.

The servants in Gao Le Mansion ran for their lives, but wherever they could escape, they were caught and tortured by the soldiers and civilians. In addition to more than ten jars of wine and some wine vessels, they found no jewelry, gold coins, jade or other items in Gao Le Mansion.

"Quickly tell me where this white-faced old thief's treasure is!"

"He has been the Prime Minister for decades, so he must have a secret room! Tell me where the secret room is!"

"Tell me, where are the old thief's treasures?"

The torturers and interrogators questioned him one after another, and the servants begged for mercy and told them that Gao Le had no money left except wine.

How could anyone believe it? They just chopped several servants to death with their swords and then came back for interrogation.

At this time, a maid stood up: "I know where Master Gao's treasure is? I'll get it!"

Everyone was overjoyed and went with her to get the treasure. Li Xiaofei and Murong Ling dragged Gao Le's body aside and wanted to save Gao Le's family.

As soon as the two entered the inner hall, they smelled a pungent smell. When they rushed in, several members of Gao Le's family had drunk poisonous wine and were lying on the ground, with black blood flowing from the corners of their mouths.

The two sighed for a while, then turned back to see what other treasures Gao Le had.

At this time, under the guidance of the maid, everyone carried out more than a dozen boxes. Everyone wanted to open it, but the maid stopped and shouted: "I have the key to open the box. Please release all the servants in the house, and I will give the key to you."

you!"

Everyone wanted to grab the key, but Murong Ling jumped over and stood in front of the maid: "Let them go first!"

In order to get the treasure, everyone had to let the servants out. After the servants left, the maid handed over the key.

Everyone opened the box together and saw that it was full of books and bamboo slips. They couldn't help but become angry and said: "You witch, how dare you lie to us, see if we don't cut you into pieces!"

The maid sneered: "Master Gao has treasured the classics of sages and the laws of Gaochang throughout his life. He has been upholding the laws of Gaochang and protecting you until his death, but you killed him in revenge! It seems that you don't deserve to be protected either.

You don't need to do anything. I've already drunk the poisoned wine." After saying that, black blood flowed from the corner of her mouth, and she fell down holding her stomach.

Murong Ling supported her, tapped her acupoints and said, "We two brothers have been deceived by others. Although we did not kill Mr. Gao, we were also involved in it, and our sin is unforgivable!"

The maid smiled painfully: "It's too late. Don't waste your efforts. There is no cure for this poison." At this time, everyone gathered around to kill the maid.

Murong Ling raised her eyebrows, held the maid in her left hand, and brandished a knife with her right hand: "He who is not afraid of death will come!"

Li Xiaofei also pointed a spear at everyone: "You don't have the money you want. Even if you kill people, it won't help. Don't make the same mistake again and again."

Everyone was a little shaken, and someone from the back of the crowd shouted: "If you don't destroy it, don't build it. Abolish the tyranny. Kill those who deserve to be killed. Don't show mercy! We are here for justice, not for money."

"We just want justice!"

"eye for eye!"

Once the crowd was incited, they lost control and Murong Ling chopped down one of them with his long knife.

Another batch rushed up. Li Xiaofei had an idea and knocked over several pots of fire beside him and started burning them in the house.

The fire became so intense that everyone retreated outside. Murong Ling and Li Xiaofei also took the maid and escaped through the back door.

Just as he escaped, he met Ju Renshan heading towards the palace surrounded by crowds.

Ju Renshan asked everyone to stop with his pleasant look, and came over to greet Murong Ling and Li Xiaofei to stay: "The two heroes have helped us in Gaochang to eliminate traitors, eliminate evil and bring order to chaos. They have done a great job. You will come with me to the palace to petition the king."

Murong Ling and Li Xiaofei said that it was inconvenient to interfere in Gao Changguo's affairs and were about to leave, but the maid rushed to Ju Renshan: "Traitor, I will not let you go even if I am a ghost!"

Ju Renshan jumped back, the maid jumped away, and Murong Ling pulled her back. The crowd was furious: "How dare you insult the Marquis, assassinate the Marquis, kill her, kill her."

Suddenly the shouts of killing were loud, and Ju Renshan signaled everyone to quiet down, but they could not restrain themselves, and many people had already gathered around.

Ju Renshan shouted to stop: "Everyone, if we also kill indiscriminately, wouldn't it be exactly the same as before? What we want to create is a free and harmonious Gaochang Kingdom. I don't want violence and death!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd burst into cheers: "The Anlehou family has a kind heart and truly benefits the people."

"Anlehou has brought us freedom and peace!"

"Only Anlehou can save Gaochang!"

Murong Ling and Li Xiaofei had no choice but to thank Ju Renshan and take their maids to find a place to exorcise the poison.

Ju Renshan continued to lead people towards the palace. The crowd gathered more and more, and endless people surrounded the palace. Ju Aotian watched the crowd trembling from the high building.

Not long after Murong Ling and Li Xiaofei took the maid away, the maid vomited some black blood again, her face became dark, and her eyes gradually lost their luster. Murong Ling once again tried to seal the maid's acupoints, but the maid shook her head with difficulty: "It's useless.

Thank you, I can die without being insulted, I am very satisfied."

The maid smiled slightly: "Don't I look ugly?"

Li Xiaofei quickly replied: "You are beautiful, very beautiful."

Murong Ling also nodded: "It's very beautiful, even more beautiful than the sunset in the distance."

"Thank you." The maid closed her eyes and her breath became weak. She didn't speak anymore and died when the moon rose.

After burying the maid, the two returned to the city. At this time, Ju Aotian was driven off the throne by the soldiers and civilians, while Ju Renshan was forced onto the throne by everyone.

Ju Renshan walked down from the throne with tears streaming down his face and refused to accept the offer. The crowd refused to comply, so they lifted him up to the throne and held him down. After struggling like this several times, he finally sat upright on the throne and gave orders.

Ju Renshan abolished the old laws of Gaochang and ordered that the soldiers and civilians in the city could eat, drink and play freely without being restricted. Everyone applauded.

Next, rewards were given based on merit, and all officials, big and small, were rewarded, and Gaochang's treasury was half empty. Li Xiaofei and Murong Ling were also regarded as meritorious officials and were named left and right captains. Each led three hundred troops to guard the city at the west gate.

In the days that followed, every family in Gaochang City cooked sheep, slaughtered cows, killed chickens, and stewed meat. The whole city smelled of wine, coriander, and attracted many crows and wild dogs.

Besides, in Luoyang, another decree came from the imperial court. The young prince raised by Liu Jian and Xiao Qian was deposed, and the decree was clear that the child should be killed to prevent other people from being disobedient.

Liu Jian was so angry that he was half dead, but the imperial envoy was waiting outside the door waiting for his return. Liu Jian

After thinking about it, the aides thought that it would be better to hand the child over to the envoy to take back, so that Liu Jian would not be stigmatized.

Xiang Xiaoyu and Meng Wuwu were firmly opposed because they had been getting along with this child day and night, and they couldn't bear to watch him being killed like this.

But all the staff accused him of not knowing the general situation. If they don't make friends, they are rebelling against the decree. Now Liu Jian's two men who can fight are gone. Chen Hongyi is still struggling to defend the city. If the imperial court raises troops to investigate, he will

Even Liu Jian's life was not guaranteed.

While everyone was arguing, Xiao Qian burst in with her child in her arms: "You bookworms who eat the prince's rice are worse than two country people. Whoever dares to hand over the child will kill me first!"

Liu Jian also slapped the table: "We have a lot of men who have suffered a lot, but a woman is not as courageous as the princess. I will risk my life to save him!"

All the staff hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, think twice, this is a declaration of war on the imperial court."

Xiao Qian sneered: "If you are afraid of being implicated, leave now to avoid being implicated by us."

All the staff looked at each other, hesitated for a while, and then all stood up. Xiang Xiaoyu looked at everyone and said, "It's great. We can save a lot of food money this month. I'll tell the messenger that we won't kill people we don't want to deal with."

!”

Liu Jian immediately stopped him: "I'd better go ahead and say it. After all, I have to take the responsibility for this matter. You two must guard the palace for me, and you must keep this little prince!"

Xiao Qian smiled: "The two children will sleep in my room from today on. I wonder which assassin dares to come?"

Liu Jian looked at Xiao Qian: "It seems that we all have to rely on you, the eldest daughter of the Xiao family, to save our lives, haha."

Xiao Qian looked at the child in her arms: "Come on, they won't care so much about a married girl. I think we should make plans early to ask Marshal Chen to move in and ask for reinforcements."

Liu Jian nodded and waited for me to send the messenger. After that, he went to the door to tell the messenger his decision.

After hearing this, the envoy was stunned on the spot: "King Han, your disobedience is tantamount to treason. When the time comes, the imperial court will mobilize troops to investigate the crime. I am afraid that the entire palace will not be able to survive. Will the prince think about it again?"

Liu Jian looked up to the sky and laughed: "We do things worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth. What crime are we guilty of? I, Liu Jian, can't even save a baby in my house today, so why should I live in the world? The messenger can go back and revive me, I won't keep him either."

The messenger sighed: "My lord, take care! Take care of yourself!" Then he led the people on their horses and headed east.

When the envoy reported back to the court, the officials were very angry and asked the emperor to issue an edict to attack Liu Jian. At this time, the emperor relapsed and coughed and objected: "Chang'an has fallen and the foreign invasion has not subsided. How can there be another civil war? Not to mention the move of Liu Jian, the king of Han.

There’s nothing wrong with that!”

Xiao Shan replied loudly: "In order to fight foreign affairs, we must first settle the domestic affairs. Liu Jian refused to obey the decree. This is a blatant rebellion. If we don't deal with rebellion, how can we convince the public?"

The emperor leaned on his throne and pointed at Xiao Shan: "You guys didn't draft the edict, cough, and send it out. I've been unable to go to court for many days, cough, cough. cough, cough, you guys feel free to do it, cough, cough."

, for this!”

Xie Rui came out and said: "The emperor is ill, so it is not inappropriate for the prime ministers and ministers to discuss the affairs of the country. What's more, Mr. Xiao killed his relatives in order to maintain the court's order and justice. He is really a role model for us."

The emperor fainted. Qin Zhong and Qin Gou'er quickly carried the emperor back and announced the three dynasties. The officials retreated laughing.
