After Breaking Off My Marriage, I Became A Powerful Minister's Treasure Chapter 481 – 481 It was finally his turn to perform

481 It was finally his turn to perform

When the commoners heard this, they were shocked.

Originally, they had a bad impression of Prince Jin’s daughter, Princess Zhen.

Last time, the entire county had united to fight against Princess Zhen.

They also realized that it wasn’t impossible to fight against these people with high status.

As long as everyone worked together, there was no need to be afraid.

“This is too much.”

“That’s right. No wonder that Princess Zhen is so arrogant.”

“So what if she’s the princess consort? What rights does she have to kill her?”

“The old Madam is the county lord and the county magistrate’s mother. Even a princess consort doesn’t have the right to beat and kill her.”

“Even if she is an ordinary person, the princess consort doesn’t have the right to kill her, right? It’s not like she’s a slave who sold herself to Prince Jin’s residence.”

“That’s right, even for ordinary people, as long as they didn’t break the law, the princess consort has no right to kill them. Otherwise, what’s the point of having a county magistrate here? Why don’t we let the princess consort do it?”

“Old Madam, don’t be afraid. We’re here. We wouldn’t let anyone kill anyone in our territory.”

“That’s right. Everyone, quickly gather more people to protect the old Madam.”

With these comments, as expected, the crowd scattered and went everywhere to call for more people.

When Ruan Songling’s guards came out, they saw the commoners protecting Mdm Kong.

These people were all looking at them fiercely.

Then, more and more people gathered over.

Some of them were holding hoes and carrying poles, as if they wanted to confront them.

When the commoners saw the guards rush out with a fierce look and looked like they really wanted to kill them to silence them, they all felt that Prince Jin’s princess consort was too brutal and arrogant.

At the same time, their impression of Prince Jin sank to the bottom again.

His legitimate daughter wanted to kill the goose king as soon as she came to Heyang County.

They didn’t expect that the princess consort to be even more arrogant and want to kill a human directly.

Everyone was furious.

This was Heyang County’s territory.

Even if Prince Jin came and wanted to kill the old Madam, they would still protect her.

At most, they would go to the capital to ask the emperor to make a decision.

Heyang County was not Prince Jin’s fief, and it was not up to a princess consort or Princess Zhen to do whatever she wanted.

In these people’s hearts, other than the emperor, Mr Xiao was their God and had always protected them.

They also wanted to protect Mr Xiao and his family.

No matter how arrogant that princess consort was, she couldn’t possibly order the guards to kill all of them.

Besides, there was still Mr Xiao and the bailiffs, so they were not afraid.

The guards who chased after them were a little confused and confused.

Are these people crazy?

However, they were more afraid of the princess consort, so they all looked fierce.

“We are from Prince Jin’s residence and we are tasked to arrest people. All of you, get lost.”

There were even guards who pulled out their swords in an attempt to scare those around.

“What, do you want to silence me?”

“You want to kill an innocent person in public, you’re too arrogant. Let Mr Xiao put you in jail.”

“Yes, yes, let Mr Xiao capture you.”

“We all saw that you are going to commit murder. We’re the witnesses.”

Not only did everyone not leave, but they also swarmed towards the guards.

Those with hoes and carrying poles blocked the front.

If this happened previously, they would definitely be afraid when facing such guards armed with knives.

But now, they outnumbered them.

They were still at the entrance of the county office.

In order to resist the evil forces, everyone was particularly hot-blooded.

Xiao Hanzheng also came out at this time.

His face was cold. “What heinous crime has my mother committed that you want to silence her?”

“She went against her superior and talked back to the princess consort,” one of the guards said.

Mother Xiao immediately cried and retorted weakly, “I didn’t. I wouldn’t dare to contradict the princess consort.

“She wanted to see me. As soon as I entered the door, she asked her maidservant to slap me. Then, she asked the guards to catch me and kill me.”

He looked at Mother Xiao, who had red eyes and tears, looking pitiful and weak as if she had been bullied.

In comparison to these fierce and arrogant guards, everyone’s hearts were of course biased towards the weak Mother Xiao.

They also believed her more.

“Mr Xiao, the princess consort can’t do such a thing. Quickly get someone to arrest these thugs.”

“Yes, yes, arrest them, arrest them!”

Xiao Hanzheng looked at the guards and said to the bailiffs, “These people committed crimes in the county government office. I suspect that they are colluding with bandits outside. I’ll arrest them and put them in prison for interrogation.”

He labeled these people as bandits the moment they arrived, so it was more justified to arrest them.

“So you’re colluding with bandits. No wonder you’re so fierce.”

The commoners all looked like they wanted to be beaten up.

Most of the guards had been following the princess consort, so they were used to being arrogant.

One of them looked at Xiao Hanzheng and snorted. “Xiao Hanzheng, how dare you!”

Xiao Hanzheng’s face was cold. “How dare you call me by my name? You’re extremely arrogant. Not to mention that your master is the princess consort, even if Prince Jin is here, I would still arrest you.

“Capture him!”

Prince Jin’s princess consort wanted to bully his mother in his territory.

Did she really think he was a soft persimmon?

These people usually helped Prince Jin’s princess consort and Liang Mingmin do many wicked things, and their hands were stained with the blood of countless people.

It would be a disaster if they roamed on the streets, so it was better to throw them to the mine or to build roads, which could be regarded as protecting the residents from evil.

The bailiffs were also enraged by these arrogant guards.

The old Madam was such a good person!

She was usually gentle and virtuous, often cooking delicious food and taking care of everyone.

These people actually wanted to kill the old Madam. They were simply too much.

As a result, a group of people immediately rushed up to capture these guards.

The guards did not expect Xiao Hanzheng to be so bold as to let the bailiffs arrest them.

Hence, they all took the initiative to fight.

Xiao Hanzheng immediately stepped forward and asked his people to step back so that they would not be accidentally hurt.

This made them even more touched.

Mr Xiao truly loved his people like his own children, he was still concerned about their safety at this moment.

Their intention to prevent Prince Jin’s princess consort to act like a tyrant here became stronger.

Hence, they protected Mother Xiao even more tightly.

“The bandits are going to kill us!” Mother Xiao’s eyes flashed. “Hurry up and catch the bandits!”

When the commoners heard this, they all started shouting.

“Capture the bandits, quickly capture the bandits!”

“The bandits have entered the town to kill people. Quickly capture the bandits.”

More people rushed over with all kinds of weapons and surrounded the guards, which made the bailiffs who were fighting with the guards even more excited.

Everyone had beaten up the princess consort’s guards as if they were bandits who had entered the town to kill others, and everyone felt it was more justified to kill them.

Someone had already returned to report to Ruan Songling.

Ruan Songling didn’t expect things to turn out like this, and her heart felt even more stifled.

Mdm Kong was simply too shameless to splash dirty water on her.

She had never thought of killing Mdm Kong.

She felt that this would be too easy on her.

She just wanted to capture her and torture her, making her beg for death.

Moreover, these unruly people were really bold.

They actually dared to oppose her for Mdm Kong.

Therefore, she walked out with the rest of the people with a gloomy expression.

“I’d like to see who dares to capture my people,” she shouted coldly at the door.

He then looked at Xiao Hanzheng with a stern expression. “Xiao Hanzheng, this is insubordination.”

At this moment, Liang Yulin immediately stood up. “My men, arrest all these bandits who are pretending to be guards.”

It was finally his turn to perform.
