The Ninth Princess is beautiful and sassy

Chapter 3076

"The master I finally found is actually a magic stick. Come here! Capture him quickly." The magistrate shouted.

The rushing government soldiers obeyed the order and quickly approached the master and Long Qian.

Wen Qian wanted to stop him, but the magistrate knelt in front of him and blocked his way.

"Fortunately, General Wen Qian arrived in time, otherwise the sacrifices of several women would have been in vain, and they are incompetent officials. I beg General Wen Qian to forgive me!"

Feiyun pulled Long Qian's hand as he attacked the Yamen soldiers fiercely.

As soon as Long Qian left, the master was surrounded by the government troops.

"Feiyun, don't let them..."

"Ah..." Before Long Qian could say anything, screams came from the crowd.

"No!" Long Qian strode back, trying to pull away the government soldiers in front of him.

The Yamen soldier looked back at her, cupped his hands, and gave up his position.

But there were several government soldiers blocking him in front of him, and Long Qian couldn't even see the master's hair.

"What did you do to him?"

"He slit his throat and killed himself."

A yamen soldier shouted, and all the yamen soldiers retreated out in unison.

Long Qian had no choice but to stay away from them again.

Gradually, she finally saw the person lying in a pool of blood.

The master lay flat on the barren land, holding a short knife in his hand. There was blood all around his neck, and he died with his eyes open.

"The murderer has been silenced." Long Qian, who was protected by Feiyun behind him, clenched his fist tightly.

She and Feiyun both heard what the master said just now. The mastermind of the whole thing was the magistrate.

Feiyun heard her whisper, turned around and leaned over to look at her, shaking his head.

"Let's go." Long Qian let out a breath and walked towards Wen Qian and Song Yufei.

Everyone is dead, so there is no point in staying. Going back can at least ensure everyone's safety.Wen Qian looked at the dead people thoughtfully, but he didn't ask any more questions and walked back with Long Qian and others.

Everyone got on horseback and quickly went down the mountain.

There is a courtyard in the town, which is specially designed for officials to visit.

The courtyard is very large, but no one usually lives in it. The magistrate usually has people come over every seven days to clean it thoroughly inside and out.

This is a rule of the Star-Moon Kingdom, and it is basically the same in every town.

Wen Qian took everyone to live directly in the courtyard. There were insufficient rooms, so they were all arranged for female soldiers first.

The rest of the people will camp in the courtyard and in the open space in front and behind the courtyard. Everyone tries to live together for the convenience of doing things.

It was already an hour before the magistrate came to visit.

"See General Wen Qian, attend Madam Wen." He knelt in the hall and looked up at the people on the main seat.

"Get up." Wen Qian waved his hand.

"Thank you, General!" The magistrate stood up, "The food brought by the General has just been officially counted. It can probably feed the people in the town for two days."

"I wonder if King Ling will be able to arrive in two days? The granaries in the town have long been exhausted. If King Ling cannot catch up, another group of people may starve to death."

"But I heard that the magistrate still eats and fishes every day. Is this true?" Long Qian strode in from outside the hall.

When the magistrate heard her voice, he turned around and asked, "May I ask who this young lady is..."

"She is the princess conferred by the emperor himself." Wen Qian reminded in a deep voice.

The county magistrate heard this and knelt down: "Join the princess, the princess will live a thousand years!"

Long Qian glanced at him and stopped.

"People are starving and freezing, and there are even people dying of hunger on the roads. Do you think that by having people clean the roads every day, the crimes can be buried?"

"As a county magistrate, I have no regard for the king's laws and wastes the lives of the people. What crime should I do?"
