Chapter 681 People make trouble(1/2)

Someone in the crowd began to echo the teacher: "Mr. I'm right, let's wait for the exact news."

But some people still don’t buy it: “Wait? When will we wait? How can we live our lives?”

Amid the noise, a child timidly asked the adults beside him: "Is Guan Guan really a bad person?" The adult frowned and didn't know how to answer.

The debate lasted for a long time, and it was not until the sun set that the people gradually dissipated. However, the suspicion about the loss of treasures lingered in people's hearts.

The next morning, the sun shone on the towering gate of the palace, but it could not illuminate the tense atmosphere at this moment.

There were crowds of people at the gate of the palace, and a large group of people flocked to him, all of whom were angry and shouting to ask for an explanation.

"Guan Yu takes the treasure for himself, this is not OK! He must hand it over!" A burly man waved his thick arms and shouted loudly, his eyes wide open, and blue veins bulged on his forehead.

"That's it! That's it! You can't favor Guan Yu, Mr. Liu wants to make the decision for us!" Everyone agreed in unison, and their voices were louder and louder.

The soldiers guarding the gate looked nervous, holding spears in their hands, trying to maintain order.

"Dear fellow villagers, don't mess around! This is the palace, don't be rude!" A soldier scolded loudly, his brows frowned and his expression was grim.

However, the angry people did not listen at all and continued to flow forward.

There are too many people, and the soldiers can't manage them at all.

"You guys do this again, don't blame us for being rude!" Another soldier shouted anxiously, sweat slid down his forehead, and a hint of panic appeared in his eyes.

At this time, an old man walked out of the crowd tremblingly. His eyes were firm, his voice trembled but powerful: "If Mr. Liu cannot handle it fairly, we will never give up!"

The palace gate was in chaos, and the situation became increasingly difficult to control.

Liu Bei was originally reading books in the palace, but suddenly he was shocked when he heard about this.

Since that's the case, it's amazing that I have to go out quickly.

Just at this chaotic moment, Liu Bei rushed over with the guards of the palace.

He frowned and looked solemnly. He looked at the noisy crowd and said loudly: "My fellow villagers, don't be excited, listen to me!"

The noise of the crowd was a little less, and everyone's eyes were focused on Liu Bei.

Liu Bei glanced at everyone, his eyes full of majesty and sincerity: "Chang Yun is definitely not such a greedy person. There must be misunderstandings in it. When I find out the truth, I will definitely give you an explanation!"

"Mr. Liu, I can't just listen to your words!" someone shouted in the crowd, his face full of suspicion.

Liu Bei's face darkened and he raised his voice: "I, Liu Bei, have always treated people with integrity. This matter will be found out. If Yun Chang is really at fault, he will never favor it!"

At this time, the crowd became a little quiet, and everyone looked at each other, as if thinking about Liu Bei's words.

Suddenly, a young young man squeezed in front, clasped his fists and saluted: "Mr. Liu, we are also disturbed by this treasure. I hope you will give me an explanation as soon as possible."

Liu Bei nodded and said solemnly: "Don't worry, I won't let everyone wait for a long time."

After saying that, he turned around and ordered the guards beside him: "Go and invite Guan Yu quickly, confront him in person, and find out the truth!"

The guards took the order and left. The atmosphere at the gate of the palace was still tense, and everyone was anxiously waiting for Guan Yu's arrival.

Liu Bei sighed in his heart. He wanted to tell the people very much that Guan Yu did lose his treasure, but he knew that if he said this, he would be pale and powerless without evidence.

So he must now be a fair judge.

He tried his best to calm down, and tried his best to maintain seriousness and solemnity on his face, and said aloud: "Everyone, I, Liu Bei, are based on benevolence and righteousness, and will definitely give you a satisfactory result. Before the truth is clear, please be at ease."

After hearing this, the people were still dissatisfied, but they were temporarily quiet.

Liu Bei was thinking about the countermeasures in his heart, and fine beads of sweat had unknowingly oozed out of his forehead.

Not long after, Guan Yu, led by the guards, strode to the gate of the palace.

His face was cold, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he held the Green Dragon Crane Moon Sword in his hand, majestic.

When the people saw Guan Yu coming, they began to stir up again.

"Guan Yu, tell me quickly, did you embezzle Caibao?" Someone asked loudly.

Guan Yu snorted coldly and said loudly: "I, Guan Yu, have been open and honest all his life, how could he do such a miserable thing!"

Seeing this, Liu Bei hurriedly said, "Chief Yun, don't worry, I will definitely check this matter clearly today."

Guan Yu bowed to Liu Bei with his fists and said, "Brother, I have a clear conscience and let it be investigated."

Liu Bei nodded slightly, glanced at everyone and said, "Okay, now we will start investigating this matter."

At this time, Liu Bei had some plans in his mind. He knew that he had to deal with this matter fairly and justly in order to appease the people and live up to the brotherhood.

Next, Guan Yu told him about the relevant matters.

He frowned, his eyes widened, and he said angrily: "Along the way, I had a bad temper and did offend a soldier named Zhao Qiang. I never thought that this villain had stole the treasure with others, trying to make me suffer!"

When Liu Bei heard this, his face turned gloomy and his eyes were majestic, and he said, "Chang Yun, is there any evidence for this matter?"

Guan Yu gritted his teeth and said, "Brother, Zhao Qiang is narrow-minded in daily life. After I clashed with him, he held a grudge against me. The stolen treasure this time must be his revenge. Although there is no direct evidence yet, it is definitely not my fault that I dare to guarantee it with my life!"

At this moment, there was a commotion in the crowd.

"Who believes your words!" someone shouted.

Guan Yu glared and shouted loudly: "I have never lie in my life, how can you not believe me!"

Liu Bei raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet and said, "Everyone should be careful, and this matter will be found out. If it is true as Yun Chang said, he will definitely not let Zhao Qiang and others go."

Many soldiers testified, and that's true.

But the people didn't buy it. An old man in the crowd shook his head and said suspiciously: "Who knows if these soldiers are in the same group as Guan Yu himself? How credible can their testimony be?"

Others also agreed and expressed their doubts.

Liu Bei stood up and said, "My fellow villagers, please be careful. I, Liu Bei, here to assure you that I will definitely capture Zhao Qiang and others. Then I will give you a satisfactory explanation."

Liu Bei's eyes were firm and sincere, and his face was serious and solemn.

However, the people were still talking.

"Hmph, to put it nicely, who knows if it can be done!" a young and strong man shouted, and he hugged his arms in front of his chest, looking distrustful.

Liu Bei took a deep breath, raised his voice and said, "I, Liu Bei, established the world with benevolence and righteousness, and will never go back on my word. If I cannot catch Zhao Qiang and others, I will give everyone justice and be criticized by the world!"

These words were loud and the people gradually calmed down, but their eyes were still filled with some doubts and expectations, waiting to see how Liu Bei handled the matter.

At this moment, Guan Yu shouted, his eyes wide open, his face flushed red, and he roared: "I, Guan Yu, have been loyal and courageous all my life. Since the people do not believe me, it is better for me to show my ambition by death!"

After saying that, he rushed towards the stone pillar beside him desperately, and his decisive appearance seemed to have put life and death aside.

"Guan Guan, no!" Several soldiers rushed forward quickly and grabbed Guan Yu's arm tightly.

They looked panicked, and beads of sweat as big as beans appeared on their foreheads. While holding Guan Yu hard, they shouted anxiously: "Governor, don't be impulsive!"

Liu Bei was shocked and ran to Guan Yu in two steps in three steps. He held Guan Yu's shoulder tightly with both hands, and said in a trembling voice: "The clouds are long, don't do this! I believe in you, this matter will definitely come to light and restore your innocence!"

When the people saw this scene, they were also shocked, and the scene was silent for a moment.

At this time, an old man with a kind face in the crowd slowly walked out. He looked at Guan Yu, with a hint of unbearableness in his eyes and said, "General Guan, don't be so impulsive. Maybe there is a misunderstanding in it, and wait for the truth to be revealed."

Guan Yu struggled hard, his eyes turned red, and he shouted loudly: "No one believed my innocence, what's the point of life?"

Liu Bei held Guan Yu tightly, his eyes flushed, and his voice choked: "Chang Yun, you and my brothers have been together for many years. I know your character well, so you must not do stupid things because of a moment of anger."

The soldiers also begged: "Governor, if you have a few shortcomings, what should we do?"

At this time, the crowd began to whisper.

"Maybe the governor Guan was really wronged."

"It doesn't look like he's pretending."

Seeing this, Liu Bei took the opportunity to say, "Friends, when I arrest Zhao Qiang and others, I will give you a satisfactory reply. Please give Yun Chang and some time."

The people looked at each other, and after a moment, someone shouted: "Then I will believe Mr. Liu again."

Liu Bei looked at everyone gratefully and said, "Thank you for your trust, I, Liu Bei, will live up to my expectations."

Then, he turned around and ordered the soldiers: "Strengthen the search and be sure to catch Zhao Qiang and others as soon as possible."

The soldiers responded in unison: "Yes!"

Next, Liu Bei actually started to cry. His eyes were wet with tears, and his voice said to the people in a crying voice: "Today, the people come to blame Yun Chief Yun is here to blame me. Chief Yun is like brothers and sisters, and is dependent on life and death. If something really happened to Chief Yun, I, Liu Bei, would not live alone."

As he said that, his body trembled slightly and his expression was extremely sad.

Many people felt sorry for it. Some of them looked ashamed and took a step forward and said, "Mr. Liu, we were impulsive."

Another commoner also agreed and bowed his head and said, "Don't be so sad, it's because we are not considerate."

Liu Bei wiped his tears and said, "I only hope to restore my innocence and let the truth be revealed to the world. Don't let the loyal and brave men feel disappointed."

The people nodded one after another, and the atmosphere at the scene gradually eased.

At this time, an elderly citizen came forward and bowed deeply, "Mr. Liu values ​​affection and righteousness, and we are ashamed. I hope Mr. Liu can find out the truth as soon as possible and give justice to the governor."

Liu Bei nodded slightly and said, "Thank you for your understanding. I will fulfill my mission."

Then, Liu Bei turned around and looked at Guan Yu, his eyes full of concern and firmness: "Chang Yun, please feel at ease, brother will definitely seek justice for you."

Guan Yu also calmed down at this time, looking at Liu Bei, tears flashed in his eyes: "Brother, I'm making you embarrassed."

Liu Bei patted Guan Yu on the shoulder: "Don't say this, let's wait for the truth together."
