Chapter 995 Six Big Men (Part [-])
There are 23 villages in Mingnan, with a radius of nearly forty miles, and the scenery is beautiful and graceful.

The largest honey field is not far from Xucheng, in the northwest of the Mingnan River, an open area of ​​Nagano, covering an area of ​​120 mu.

Princess Yangping's horse express, a group of people rushed to it, and saw a corpse covered in white cloth lying in front of the crowd, and there were at least [-] people wailing around the corpse.

In addition to 30 people, thousands of peasant households confronted Xucheng soldiers with long hoes, kitchen knives, axes, and sickles.

A soldier outside suddenly shouted: "The princess is here!"

When Ding Mingzhi, the son of Dingxian Lieutenant, heard the news, he immediately rushed to the carriage and reported what happened to Yangping who got off the same carriage.

Princess Yangping has no expression on her face, and her steps are fast.

The surrounding soldiers knelt down one after another, shouting in unison: "I have seen the princess!"

Ding Mingzhi followed Princess Yangping, and suddenly saw Li Hao who came down from the horse behind him. Ding Mingzhi paused, then stepped forward and knelt down: "Ding Mingzhi, a small official in Xucheng, Mingtai County, has seen the third prince!"

It's the prince!

The soldiers who had not been allowed to stand up then saluted the prince again.

People in the distance looked at the luxurious and charming girl walking in the crowd, wondering whether to kneel or not.

Suddenly, someone knelt on the ground: "Caomin has seen the third prince, and the princess!"

Someone took the lead, and others could only follow suit.

Thousands of people put down their utensils, like the wind blowing through a wheat field, they knelt down in waves, but their voices were very neat: "The grass people have seen the third prince and the princess!"

"Do you still know that I am a princess?" Yang Ping sneered, and raised his voice, "The workshop and honey field that you promised to sell to me, but suddenly you backed down, are you teasing this princess?"

Everyone bowed their heads, but no one answered.

Li Yishu got off the carriage behind, walked over and looked at the people kneeling on the ground.

Qian Ri'an quickly followed her, and said with a smile, "They're all mediocre people who are easy to deal with. They don't cry when they see the coffin."

Many people looked up to Li Yishu, and after looking at her, many of them turned to the northeast direction, which was where she and Princess Yangping came from.

Li Yishu turned around following their gaze, and asked, "Who are you waiting for?"

"It's no use waiting for anyone to come," Yang Ping looked at Ding Mingzhi, "Where is that Lin Zheng?"

"This official is here!" Lin Zong came running with a thick stack of papers, followed by three assistants, and when they got close, Lin Cong shouted, "Princess, this official is here!"

"What you hold in your hand is a contract document that has changed hands?" Yang Ping asked.

"Exactly!"

"Have you brought the official seal of the Yamen?"

"Bring it!"

"Then go sign it." Yang Ping looked forward and said coldly, "I'll watch you sign it here, and I also want to see who is teasing this princess, and dares to go back on what she says."

"Yes!" Lin Zheng replied.

Seeing Lin Zong come over, the farmers kneeling on the ground were stunned and dumbfounded.

Originally, he was so confident, and there was room for negotiating, but after kneeling like this, it seemed that it became more difficult, as if he was bloody in the kneeling just now, and the kneeling was gone.

Take people to kneel down, easy.

It is difficult to lead people to stand up and resist.

So at this moment, who dares to come out and take the lead...

Lin engaged in calling the village officials in charge of this area, and at the same time he stretched out his hand and randomly pointed five people forward in the crowd.

Start with them, let them declare their names, village registration, locality, and property under their names.

While he was questioning, the officers and soldiers beside him went forward to search for the registration books and land deeds or house deeds on them.

Ding Mingzhi asked people to move stools for Yangping and others to sit on.

The village officials also quickly arranged manpower to deliver special-grade Ming Nanshan dark tea, freshly made exquisite dim sum and specialty jerky.

The first five people to be named were searched for land deeds and house deeds, but one of them did not bring anything.

"My lord," the officers and soldiers who searched and searched turned to look at Lin Zhengeng, "he really has nothing."

Lin was engaged in the registration of the deed after a search, and then checked the household registration management according to the village number.

"Li Dafu," Lin Zheng raised his head, "Don't you have two red sand workshops?"

"Xiaomin, Xiaomin doesn't want to sell..."

Lin engaged in looking at him, got up and went to report to Princess Yangping.

Princess Yangping picked up the teacup and said in a slow voice, "What crime should it be to go back on your word and play tricks on the princess?"

Lin Zheng was stopped by the question, he paused, and he opened his mouth: "If it is light, you will be imprisoned for ten years, and you will be exiled after the prison, or if it is serious, you will be executed."

Li Dafu's face turned pale, and he immediately knelt down: "I'll give it to me, and I'll go home to pick it up!"

"Forget it," Yang Ping said impatiently, "I don't think much of your two small workshops either."

Lin Zong then turned around and said, "Come here, take this Li Dafu..."

"I haven't finished my words yet!" Yang Ping angrily reprimanded.

"Princess calm down!" Lin Zheng said hurriedly.

Yang Ping looked up and down Li Dafu who was so frightened that his legs were weak: "Although you, a troublemaker, don't take me seriously, but I am broad-minded and kind-hearted, so your ten-year prison and exile will be avoided. No need. However, you have to keep one hand today. You can choose for yourself, whether it is the left hand or the right hand."

Li Hao frowned and looked at her: "Sister Huang."

"Brother Huang, leave me alone." Yang Ping didn't look sideways.

Lin Zong then ordered people to pull Li Dafu down.

Soon, a scream sounded.

Of the thousands of farmers kneeling on the ground, nearly half were terrified.

The scream seemed to penetrate their heads, their minds went blank, and a bone-chilling chill emanated from their bodies.

Princess Yangping said indifferently: "The next wave."

As soon as the voice fell, there was another scream.

There was sudden chaos in the northwest, and dozens of Xu Cheng soldiers fell over.

Everyone was shocked and looked away.

Li Yishu, who had been keeping an eye on the northeast direction, heard the movement behind him and turned his head to look northeast. Dozens of carriages were rushing towards them.

Two of the carriages seemed to have been seen near Fengyang Tower.

For no reason, a strong uneasiness arose in Li Yishu's heart.

"Princess." Li Yishu said softly.

Princess Yangping couldn't take care of both sides. Following what Li Yishu said, she looked towards the northeast, but she couldn't see how many carriages there were, so she had to look back to the other side.

The dozen or so Xu Cheng soldiers got up from the ground in embarrassment, and hurriedly backed away.

The rest of Xu Cheng's soldiers quickly drew their weapons and looked at the six tall and burly men coming from the northwest.

Six big men also carried weapons and stood in front of several steles of different heights.

One raised his hand and pushed Xu Chengbing away who was still in his hand.

Li Dafu's hands were intact, and he was paralyzed on the ground in the distance, with a dazed expression on his face that he didn't know what happened.

Clank and clang.

The followers beside Li Hao drew out their knives one after another, and stood in front of Li Hao and Yang Ping.

"Who is here?" Li Hao raised his voice, "Do you know who we are?"

"I know, the prince and princess who took advantage of everything." Zhi Li said slowly with a hoarse voice, walking between Wei Dongyou and Zhan Ning.

As soon as this remark came out, Li Hao's eyes widened: "Presumptuous!"
