Chapter 2273
Chapter 2278
Although the streets were noisy, Zhu Yan and Xia Yuanqiu heard what Jin Ba and Liu Ji said clearly. If a person doesn't want to live anymore and wants to die, they naturally want to fulfill him.
Zhu Yan ignored Jin Ba, and said to Liu Ji, "Liu Ji, it seems that this is not the first time you have brought troops to Jincheng, right?"
Liu Ji turned pale, bowed his head and said nothing.
Zhu Yan said again: "Since you came here under the order of General Wei, although you are at fault, you are not the main culprit, and the Jingwei who listened to you is even more innocent. In this way, you immediately take people back to the capital and let you General Wei Go to the emperor to accept the crime yourself."
Liu Ji's face became paler and paler, only to hear Zhu Yan say again: "It's best not to wait for this king to return to the capital to deal with this matter, the emperor's methods are different from this king's methods, do you understand?"
Why didn't Liu Ji understand that the lord was giving General Wei a way out, if the matter was decided by the emperor, at most it would be downgraded and fined, and at worst he would lose his official position, but his life would definitely be saved.
But if this matter is left to the prince to handle, whether my life can be saved is really a matter of opinion.
In front of Zhu Yan, Liu Ji dared not say a word, and immediately left Jincheng in a desperate manner with three thousand Jingwei. Ren Jinba yelled like this behind him, but he didn't look back.
Liu Ji really hated Jin Ba to death now, not to mention that he killed General Wei, even Liu Ji just followed orders, so he was in bad luck.
When Jin Ba saw his backer running away in desperation, he was also panicked. He thought Liu Ji would listen to him, but he was like a mouse seeing a cat, and sent him away with a few casual words. He wanted to run away immediately. If he stays any longer, the situation will be very unfavorable to him!
It's a pity that he wanted to slip away, but Zhu Yan didn't stop him, but the people who had been onlookers surrounded him, and some people plopped down and knelt down to Zhu Yan: "My lord is a thousand years old, and I ask my lord to be the master for us Jincheng people!"
"My lord, Jin Ba did all sorts of crimes in Jincheng, bullied men and women, and acted mischievously, but it hurt us common people, and the county magistrate didn't care. Those who went to the capital to sue for impeachment either died on the way, or just arrived in the capital. After handing it over, he was knocked out and brought back, and then he had to be tormented by him. Over the years, countless souls have died in his hands. If the prince cannot make decisions for us today, this Jincheng will still As in the past, he made a mess of smoke, and the people were in dire straits."
Zhao Si, who had been standing behind Zhu Yan and Xia Yuanqiu, squeezed up and said to the common people: "Everyone get up first, the prince will definitely take care of this matter, get up first!"
Seeing that everyone was being helped up by Zhao Si, Zhu Yan said, "Such a bully came out of Jincheng, causing the people to suffer so much. It's the imperial court, here, I'll take the blame for everyone first!"
Zhu Yan bowed to everyone, and said: "Since I have encountered this matter, I will definitely take care of it to the end."
The people clapped their hands and applauded. At this time, another group of people came running from a distance. Looking at the clothes, they turned out to be the clothes of the county government servants, followed by a middle-aged man on horseback. He was wearing a seventh-rank official uniform and looked nervous.
Zhu Yan secretly thought that he came at the right time, and said to the county magistrate who got off his horse and was about to kneel down to salute: "You don't need to be too polite, you immediately take people to Jinba Mansion, ransack the house, Zhao Si also followed, the money that was copied, All will be filled into the orphanage reserve warehouse.”
