The refugees watching the scene didn't dare to go near seeing such a bloody scene.

I only dared to stand far away in a less dangerous place and watch quietly.

However, many people resented the so-called Thirteenth Prince.

These refugees have been in Hanyang City for some time, so they are familiar with the current situation of Hanyang City.

They knew clearly that the imperial court had never sent any reinforcements to resist the tide of monsters, and they also knew that the imperial court had not even sent any food.

Otherwise, the city lord would not be in such a difficult situation and would not have to ask for food from those aristocratic families.

Naturally, they would always remember the great kindness of the city lord.

Although the other party was a cultivator with a very high level of cultivation, he still did not give up on these refugees.

But looking at the people in the imperial court, it seemed that they did not take these refugees seriously at all.

Just like livestock that can be abandoned at any time.

As a result, with just a slight comparison, they began to resent the court.

What's more, the Thirteenth Prince is still killing refugees.

Could it be that he wanted to kill the refugees because he couldn't stand the fact that they ate too much food?

Are refugees no longer human beings?

If the refugees eat a few bites of food, it can't be considered a waste, right?

"The Thirteenth Prince!"

"What exactly do you want to do?" Gu Zhencang's face was still very gloomy at this moment, and he stared coldly at Xuan Jing who was standing there.

Once his quasi-emperor cultivation was released, even the guards would not dare to look at him directly.

Xuan Jing, however, was not afraid of Gu Zhencang at all.

He just smiled coldly and said: "This prince still wants to ask these refugees what they want to do!"

"This prince is staying well in this palace, but these refugees want to come in and steal food!"

"Lord Gu, is this the person you rescued?"

Xuan Jing's face was full of sarcasm.

He was also extremely unhappy in his heart. Why would Gu Zhencang, a quasi-emperor-level warrior, save these useless refugees?
Even if we need to save them, we only need to save a small part of them.

He had to save them all. So many people, so many mouths, how much food would they need?

Especially these refugees, who were so ignorant that they dared to cause trouble for him.

Now that Gu Zhencang has come and is holding him accountable without any reason, it would be strange if he could feel comfortable.

When Gu Zhencang heard this, his eyes couldn't help but turn red.

"How dare you say that!"

"This city lord went to borrow food from you this morning, but you didn't give me the food until the evening!"

"If it weren't for you procrastinating and not handing over the food, leaving these refugees hungry, why would they come to you for food?"

Gu Zhencang was also in a bad mood. He had no idea what had happened here from the beginning.

But after listening to the reports from his subordinates and investigating with his spiritual sense, he had already figured out what was going on.

He didn't know that Jun Lintian had played a role in this matter.

But judging from the current situation, it was Xuan Jing who caused the trouble himself.

He had already warned Xuan Jing that the refugees would do anything when they were hungry, but Xuan Jing refused to listen to his warning.

Then there was nothing he could do.

"Humph!"

Xuan Jing snorted coldly and said with a frown, "Since this prince has already promised to give you the food, then he will definitely give it to you."

"It's just one night without eating. It's not like they'll starve to death. Look at them. They don't look hungry at all."

"So many lowly people gathered together and dared to attack the palace? If anything happens to this prince tonight, you will not be able to escape responsibility!"

When the refugees heard the so-called Thirteenth Prince calling them pariahs again, their anger flared up again.

Originally, half of the refugees who came at the beginning had died, but many more people came to watch the fun.

As a result, many refugees gathered here.

The number of people is even several times more than at the beginning.

"You are a prince, so what do you think?" a brave refugee immediately shouted.

"If you weren't born in the palace, you would probably be starving like us!"

"You were just born in a better family, aren't you? There's nothing to be proud of!"

"Which one of us wasn't born by our parents? Only you are so capable!"

His words were like a huge rock hitting a deep pool, causing thousands of waves.

"That's right! You have nothing to be proud of!"

"Even if you are a prince, you have to listen to our city lord when you come to Hanyang City!"

"The city lord asked you to hand over the food, why are you dragging your feet? Do you really want to watch us starve to death here?"

"That's easy for you to say. How can you say that people won't starve to death in one night? You haven't seen it with your own eyes, so how do you know that they won't starve to death? We've been hungry for several days!"

"Hand over the food!"

"Hand over the food!"

The refugees held torches in their hands and kept shouting.

When Gu Zhencang saw this scene, his expression changed again.

If so many refugees gathered together and started to make trouble, the situation would be out of control.

He couldn't help but blame Xuan Jing in his heart. Why did he have to provoke these refugees for no reason?
Especially when the city was surrounded by monsters, such an incident actually happened.

He couldn't help but secretly curse Xuan Jing for being such a pig-brained person.

How could a prince do such a stupid thing? I wonder how stupid he is!
"Everyone, shut up!"

Gu Zhencang quickly made up his mind. He looked at Xuan Jing with cold eyes and said angrily, "Thirteenth Prince, you ordered your men to wantonly massacre refugees. Your crime is unforgivable!"

"According to the laws of the Xuanwu Empire, this city lord will temporarily detain you! After the monster chaos is quelled, you will be handed over to the court for trial!"

He can't let Xuan Jing cause trouble again now.

Especially these refugees were about to eat Xuan Jing alive.

Things can't get any worse.

So he had to put Xuan Jing under house arrest first.

"What did you say?"

When Xuan Jing heard this, he felt like he had heard a huge joke.

He laughed wildly: "This prince is a royal relative! You, Gu Zhencang, are just a city lord. What rights do you have to arrest this prince!"

"Do you dare to do it?"

"If you dare to do it, you will be arrested!"

Gu Zhencang was too lazy to talk nonsense with Xuan Jing. After shaking his head slightly, he raised his right hand.

"Someone! Arrest the Thirteenth Prince and his guards! Imprison them in Xuanwu City Prison!"

"Understood!" A team of heavily armored Hanyang City guards immediately moved in unison towards the palace gate.

These guards are Gu Zhencang's carefully selected trusted subordinates.

Their cultivation levels were higher than Xuan Jing's guards, and with the large number of guards, they immediately controlled Xuan Jing and his guards.

When Xuan Jing saw that Gu Zhencang was serious, his expression changed instantly.

"Gu Zhencang! How dare you capture this prince!" (End of this chapter)
