Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space

Chapter 1906: Quelling the Chaos in Qingcheng

The old woman cried out at the top of her lungs, bringing everyone else's thoughts back to reality. Thinking of how so many people had died because of the prefect's selfishness, the people of Qingcheng wanted to rush onto the stage and tear the prefect to pieces.

"You dog officer, you will die a miserable death."

"Kill the dog officer."

"The dog official should pay for those people's lives. Kill him, kill him."

The people were about to riot, and the soldiers hurriedly stopped him. Wan Conghe also stood in front and warned: "Stop, if you come forward again, don't blame the soldiers for their blind swords."

"The governor has been arrested. You don't need to do anything. Justice will be served to you naturally."

After hearing Wan Conghe's words and looking at the gleaming sword light, the people finally calmed down, but they were still angry.

Seeing their expressions, Chen Changli took a deep breath, took out a token, and said loudly: "Everyone, I am Chen Changli, the old Duke of Dayong. I have been ordered to thoroughly investigate the matter of Qingcheng. Now the evidence is conclusive and has been found out."

"This group of people are obsessed with profit and are harming the people. According to the laws of Dayong, the governor and his gang will be sentenced to death to comfort the souls of the wronged souls in heaven. The execution will be carried out immediately at the Meridian Gate, and the people of Qingcheng can all watch the execution."

Chen Changli took the initiative to reveal his identity in order to appease the people. Even if the governor was punished, Qingcheng would not be in chaos. The token shining with golden light stunned all the people present.

It took a long time for everyone to react and they started whispering to each other, as if they couldn't believe it. But the token couldn't be faked, and they realized who they had scolded these days.

The old Duke of Dayong is well-known to everyone in the world. He is a meritorious official of Dayong, but he was accused of being a murderer in Qingcheng and suffered a lot of grievances.

Thinking of this, the people were so frightened that they knelt on the ground, and in panic, they knelt and kowtowed to Chen Changli and Wan Shufang.

"I pay my respects to His Excellency the Duke and Madam."

There was silence all around, and Chen Changli did not ask everyone to stand up, which made the people feel uneasy and worried about being implicated. The braver ones took the initiative to ask for forgiveness.

"We were blinded by the governor and made a big mistake. I hope you will forgive us."

"Excuse me, my lord!"

Everyone lowered their heads and didn't dare to raise them at all. Seeing this, Chen Changli put away the token.

He accepted the kneeling of the crowd, and was only angry because those people had cursed Wan Shufang before. Chen Changli had a cold face and a calm tone: "Everyone, please stand up. I don't blame you for being deceived by others."

"Thank you, sir."

"Your Excellency is so magnanimous. It is a blessing for Qingcheng." Wan Conghe snorted coldly, obviously angry.

The people are apologizing now only because they are afraid, but after all they cannot attack the powerless people, so they can only give up.

The officers and soldiers forced the prefect and his men to kneel down, waiting for the moment to execute them.

The people of Qingcheng were eagerly waiting. The moment had come. Chen Changli gave an order and bursts of screams suddenly rang out on the stage.

"what!"

The killers were strangled one by one, and the prefect was the last one in line. Just watching, he was frightened to faint several times and was woken up by the soldiers.

Warm blood splashed onto the faces of the people standing closer to the front. They wiped the blood, their eyes filled with excitement of revenge.

"Well done, revenge for my son."

"And my brother, he was about to take the imperial examination, my poor brother, was killed by these people."

"These evil people shall not die a good death."

As the people cheered, the prefect was pushed up. He shook his head, not wanting to die.

"I don't want to die, master, master, save me." The prefect cried miserably and tried to escape, but was kicked hard several times by the soldiers.

In the end, he had no choice but to die tragically under the criminal law, and he never even closed his eyes before his death.

Under the witness of everyone, the bad guys did not die a good death and received the punishment they deserved.

The smell of blood filled the air. It was quiet all around and no one spoke.

Seeing the unwillingness in the governor's eyes, Wan Shufang shook her head: "When people make mistakes, they never expect to be discovered, and they even hope for the best and think they can stay safe forever."

As soon as she finished speaking, Chen Changli stood in front of her.

"Shufang, stop looking." He used his body to block the blood, not wanting to scare Wan Shufang. He turned to face the people and said with his thin lips: "Everyone, the chaos in Qingcheng has been settled now."

"The court has sent a new governor, who will arrive in Qingcheng soon. By then, the new governor will properly revamp Qingcheng and change the previous corruption so that everyone can live a peaceful life."

As soon as these words were spoken, the people suddenly came back to their senses from the heaviness they had just felt and cheered.

"Okay, okay, Qingcheng is saved. Thank you very much, sir."

"Thank you, sir."

Looking at the happy faces of the people below, Chen Changli and Wan Shufang also smiled. The big stone in their hearts finally fell to the ground. The matter came to an end. Chen Changli glanced around.

Although he didn't know who the person behind the scenes was yet, he knew that this person must be keeping an eye on everything that happened in Qingcheng.

Just as Chen Changli was deep in thought, an arrow shot straight towards him.

"Chen Changli, be careful!"

Wan Shufang pulled him back and barely avoided the arrow. The arrow grazed Chen Changli's face and with a "bang", it hit the pillar behind him.

"Chen Changli, are you okay?" Wan Shufang asked anxiously, looking at Chen Changli in panic.

"I am fine."

Only after making sure that he was okay did Wan Shufang breathe a sigh of relief. The two men looked solemn as they walked closer step by step to the arrow with a white paper ball tied to it.

Chen Changli reached out his hand, took the note and opened it. When he saw the content on it, his eyes suddenly became cold and revealed a hint of murderousness.

"Changli, what's written on the note?" Wan Shufang walked forward curiously and took the note from Chen Changli's hand.

"They said Amir and Yang Afu were in their hands."

As Chen Changli finished speaking, Wan Shufang also saw this sentence, and her beautiful eyes suddenly widened: "Yang Afu, isn't Yang Afu dead?"

In the ruins of Xingyun Town, they clearly saw Yang Afu's corpse with their own eyes, and it was because of the guidance of that corpse that they came to Qingcheng.

But now it is said that Yang Afu is in the hands of that group of people?

"I don't know what the situation is, but what is certain is that they are threatening us. Now Amir is in their hands. If they use the same old tricks to frame us, the relationship between Xirong and Dayong will be in jeopardy."

Chen Changli shook his head, his face very solemn, staring at the arrow.

"No matter what, we have to rescue them as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Wan Shufang took a deep breath. She certainly understood what Chen Changli meant, but now they didn't even know who the enemy was, so where should they start?

"Let's go back first." Chen Changli said calmly. He pulled out the arrow, told Wan Conghe to clean up the scene, then left holding Wan Shufang's hand.
