Chapter 236: Not leaving

When Xiao Lengshi heard this, he was shocked: "So many people are here? Who are they?"

This is Fusi, the North Town of Jinlinwei. Who dares to come here to cause trouble?

“They were all ordinary people, and they clamored for Jinlin Guards to let Miss Kou go.”

Xiao Lengshi was stunned for a while, then walked out.

 At this time, there was already a sea of ​​people outside the Yamen, and it was suffocating.

Several Jinlin Guards struggled to maintain the situation, and sweat broke out on their foreheads.

Such large-scale people's riots have been rare for many years, so why did they happen to them?

 Drive people away?

Several Jinlin guards exchanged glances, but no one did anything.

Not to mention that compared with the number of these people, they are not enough to fill their teeth. In fact, they are not willing to arrest the bandit girl.

However, Mr. He is not here. Now the person in charge of the Beizhen Fusi is Mr. Xiao, and they, the lowest ones, can only listen.

 “Master Xiao is coming out.” Someone shouted.

The Jinlin guards who were maintaining order all turned their heads to look, and saw Xiao Lengshi walking out with a serious face.

Perhaps Xiao Lengshi's face was too cold, and the scene fell silent for an instant, with countless eyes looking at the adult who came out.

Xiao Lengshi looked around and frowned even more tightly.

 There are so many people.

He slowly scanned the faces, looking for the person who was leading the trouble, and finally his eyes fell on an old man and the young man beside him.

Xiao Lengshi's eyes are indeed good. The old man is the head of Beiloufang, and the young man is Gu Yu.

Aware of Xiao Lengshi's gaze, Gu Yu took a step forward, but was overtaken by the director.

“The grass-roots people have met your Excellency. The grass-roots people are the head of Beiloufang. We heard that Miss Kou was arrested because of rumors, and we want to ask you to let Miss Kou come out.”

"Rumor? What rumor?" Xiao Lengshi asked coldly.

His eyes are cold, his voice is also cold, and he has the official authority that people naturally fear.

The director was also afraid, but at this age and having been the director for many years and having experienced many things, he finally managed to hold on: "Miss Kou is a kind person. It is impossible to lock up Mr. Songling. Please don't listen to me." Let Miss Kou go free from such rumors."

Xiao Lengshi's face darkened: "This is not an ordinary government office, this is the Jinlin Guards. Miss Kou was not brought here because of any rumors."

 Isn’t it because of the rumors?

The director was stunned for a moment.

Gu Yu took a step forward, passed the head of the square, held his hands and said: "Student Gu Yu, I have met the adults."

Xiao Lengshi looked at the young man who saluted him expressionlessly: "Are you from Beiloufang too?"

“Yes, the student is still a supervisor of the Imperial College.”

Hearing what Gu Yu said, the director hesitated to speak, his eyes could not hide his worry.

 They are all ordinary people. With so many people together, it is impossible to arrest them all. But this child revealed his identity as a prison student. What should he do if he is targeted by the officials in the future?

 Gu Yu is aware of the concerns of the head of the department and others. But he was the one who took the lead in this matter. When he confronted Jinlin Guard, he hid behind him and pushed his father and fellow villagers to the front. What kind of person has he become?

“Are you also here to ask Jinlin Guard to release people?” Xiao Lengshi asked slowly, with an obvious threat.

"Yes. Miss Kou is a life-saving grace to the students and the neighbors in Beiloufang. We cannot turn a blind eye to Miss Kou's trouble. May I ask, sir, what did Miss Kou commit?"

Xiao Lengshi stared at Gu Yu: "Are you interfering with Jinlinwei's handling of the case?"

“Students don’t dare. Students just don’t believe that Miss Kou will do anything illegal.”

"You don't believe it, so you can blackmail Jinlin Guard into releasing him?" Xiao Lengshi sneered, staring at the straight-backed young man with cold eyes.

The young man showed no intention of backing down: "Your Excellency, you have misunderstood. We are just ordinary people. How dare we threaten Jinlin Guards? We are asking for it."

 “What if I don’t agree?”

 “We will wait for Miss Kou to come out.”

“Jinlinwei is handling the case, and the three judicial departments have no right to intervene, but you come to ask for an explanation and refuse to let me go. Isn’t this a threat?”

Xiao Lengshi saw that the real leader was this young man, and then the head of Beiloufang.

If these two people are taken down, there will be no need to worry about a rabble being dispersed. "Someone, take away this supervisor who is interfering with Jinlinwei's handling of the case!"

Following Xiao Lengshi's order, two Jinlin guards came over immediately, one on the left and one on the right holding down Gu Yu's shoulders.

Grain Mother rushed over: "If you arrest my son, arrest me too!"

The head of the neighborhood also took a step forward: "Sir, the safety of Miss Kou is the hope of all our neighbors in Beiloufang, and it is not the concern of this child alone."

Xiao Lengshi's face completely darkened: "As the head of the square, you don't want to stabilize the people's hearts and live in peace, but you take the lead in making trouble with this supervisor. Do you think that the law will not punish the people and the government will have nothing to do with you? Come on, take this Let’s take it together!”

Seeing the mayor being arrested, some neighbors were frightened and at a loss, but more people shouted.

 “Don’t arrest our head!”

“Miss Kou has saved countless people and has done countless deeds. Why should we arrest her?”

 …

Seeing the crowd surging and the situation showing signs of getting out of control, Xiao Lengshi gave an order and the Jinlin guards drew their long swords one by one.

It was already dusk at this time, with the remaining glow of the clouds, and the long sword in Jin Linwei's hand shone with a cold light.

 The crowd suddenly fell silent.

They are all ordinary ordinary people, and I have never seen such a formation before.

They were frightened and retreated unconsciously, but they were unwilling to leave. Seeing Gu Yu and the director being taken away, they dared not speak out in anger.

 Gu Mu chased after the fierce Jin Linwei, but was persuaded by Gu Yu to stop her.

“Mom, please be well. My son can feel at ease when he is inside.”

 “Yu’er—” Gu Mu choked with sobs, but did not shed tears.

Gu Yu gave her mother a reassuring smile, and then was pushed by Jin Linwei.

 “Let’s go!”

When Xiao Lengshi walked into the Yamen, his confidants were a little worried and asked: "Sir, there are so many people gathering outside, will everything be okay?"

Xiao Lengshi sneered: "What's the matter? I didn't expect them to be honest as soon as the sword came out. Is it possible that a bunch of ragtag people are still gathering outside the Yamen to spend the night? They will disperse when it gets completely dark."

He knows very well what these little people are like.

The emperor's decree not to torture Miss Kou is enough to constrain her, but it would be too funny to have a group of common people take advantage of her!

Half an hour later, his subordinates came in and reported: "Sir, many people outside the Yamen have dispersed."

Xiao Lengshi smiled.

 He knew that those ordinary people would not be able to hold on for long.

  An hour later.

“Sir, many women who left have returned and brought bedding.”

  Xiao Lengshi:?

 “Sir, what should we do?”

 “Follow them!”

 Originally, violent eviction was the fastest solution, but there were too many people and it was easy to cause trouble.

 Sleeping on the street instead of sleeping in a good bed?

 He couldn't believe that so many people were crazy.

At this time, on the street under the bright starlight, the elderly and children were persuaded to go back, but others remained silent and stood firm.

Some people who lived nearby tried to persuade me with good intentions, but the person who was persuaded shook his head.

"We're not leaving. It was Miss Kou who sent us cotton-padded clothes on the day we were homeless in the dead of winter. It's early summer now, and staying on the street for one night is nothing."

 Now, it's time for them to give Miss Kou "cotton clothes".
