The princess's calm attitude infected Yue Jian. Don't panic when things happen, then nothing will be difficult.

She also calmly said to the maid:

"Take Mr. Pang to the living room, the princess will be there soon."

Soon, Shen Dongsu came to the living room. Mr. Pang was with a military general covered in blood. When he saw her, they both saluted.

Mr. Pang first apologized: "I disturbed the princess's rest."

Shen Dongsu raised his hand slightly and said softly: "It doesn't matter, sir, can you tell me what happened?"

For some reason, the princess's voice, as cold as broken jade, was like a ray of clear spring, calming the anxiety and worries of the two of them.

Mr. Pang blamed himself more and more. The older he got, the more alive he became, and he even panicked over such a trivial matter.

During the prince's expedition, the princess is the backbone of everyone, but the princess is pregnant, so we can't let her be tired!

Mr. Pang took a blood-stained letter from the general beside him, opened it and said to Shen Dongsu:

"Commander A, something happened."

No matter how calm Shen Dongsu was, his heart was in a state of trepidation. Jia Si, like Yue Jian, had long been regarded as family by her.

Yue Jian next to him turned pale in a rare moment, and instinctively put his hand on the knife on his waist, ready to kill someone immediately.

She asked in a deep voice: "Is he still alive?"

Mr. Pang said hurriedly: "He's still alive."

Shen Dongsu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the person is still alive, everything will be easy.

"Who is so bold?"

"They are the children of the Jeju gentry from last winter. The leader is Chen Fang, who had his mouth cut off on the princess's order."

"They led people to ambush the village where Commander A was patrolling. They used the lives of the villagers as bait to lure Commander A and his party into a trap."

The young general beside Mr. Pang was filled with indignation and said with red eyes:

"Everyone in Qingcun in that village went to work as a labor force, and the only ones left behind were women and children. They threatened the lives of their children, and if we dared to fight back, we killed the children."

"A few women who were afraid that their children would be injured tried their best to protect their children, but they killed them on the spot."

"They are outnumbered. There are more than 300 people. Our patrol team only has 12 people. In order to protect the children, Commander A had no choice but to put down his weapons."

Shen Dongsu nodded and said, "Even if I let you come back to deliver the letter, I want peace talks. What do they want?"

Mr. Pang's face turned cold and he said in a deep voice: "It's a vain wishful thinking. I dare not make such a request."

Shen Dongsu sneered and said: "It doesn't matter, come and listen to me, Princess. You must have scolded me, right?"

"Don't worry, I'm tired of hearing the scoldings over the years, and I can't come up with new tricks."

Of course, the general did not dare to repeat everything. Chen Fang scolded the princess in an extremely unpleasant way, calling the princess a lowly peasant girl.

This also angered Commander A, who almost killed Chen Fang, but there were too many people on the other side. Commander A was seriously injured, and they threatened him with his child before he was captured alive.

Mr. Pang said: "They want the princess to return the fields in Youzhou City that originally belonged to the nobles."

"I want the princess to apologize to Chen Fang in public and pay ten thousand yuan in compensation. Otherwise, I will kill Commander A and his party."

Shen Dong's eyebrows raised: "You're not very brave! You didn't even want to enter Youzhou City."

Also, if they dare to go to the city to provoke, why should they hide in a remote village to ambush?

What she didn't understand was: "It's been more than half a year since I cut Chen Fang's mouth. Why did he come to take revenge now?"

Before Mr. Pang could answer, she thought to herself: "Yes, the imperial envoy is coming soon."

The leader of the imperial envoy was Chen Xingyao. Chen Fang probably became more courageous as soon as he heard that they were from the Chen family.

Coupled with Ling Moxiao's expedition, he must have felt that there was only Princess Ling left to defend the city in Youzhou City, and his opportunity had come.

Of course, he didn't dare to really rebel, so he used this underhanded trick. The toad doesn't bite, but it is disgusting!

Shen Dongsu felt disgusted and panicked when he thought about a group of such scoundrels who would cause trouble whenever they found an opportunity in Youzhou City.

And, they killed people.

In Youzhou, there is an iron law, anyone who kills civilians for no reason must pay with his life!

No matter who you are, you must die!

She never found a chance to confirm to the people that this was not an empty talk.

It is not the same as the law of Chang'an, which says that when the emperor breaks the law, he is guilty of the same crime as the common people.

As a result, not to mention the emperor, even if the nobles killed civilians, they would only be fined silver.

She lowered her eyes and thought deeply, feeling that this matter could not be solved hastily, it would make a big fuss, and let everyone who covets Youzhou see it.

His Royal Highness Prince Ling is not easy to mess with, and she, Princess Ling, is not easy to mess with either!

He raised his eyes and asked the general: "How is Commander A's injury?"

Neither he nor Mr. Pang mentioned that Commander Jia was injured, but Shen Dongsu saw that he was covered in blood. Needless to say, Commander Jia Si must have been injured more seriously.

Jia Si has never been the kind of general who lets his subordinates charge while he takes the back seat.

The general's voice was choked with sobs: "Commander A was stabbed and seriously injured."

Shen Dongsu's eyes turned cold, he was going too far!

Then he asked: "How many villagers died?"

"Eight, a dozen injured."

"Mr. Pang, please arrange for the military doctor to go over and write back to Chen Fang. This princess accepts his conditions."

"It's just that Youzhou's treasury is insufficient, and it will take three days to raise it. Three days later, he will arrive at the gate of Nancheng."

"I apologize to him in front of the whole city, return the fields that originally belonged to the noble clan, and give him ten thousand taels of gold."

Mr. Pang was shocked: "Not allowed, Princess!"

Shen Dongsu raised his hand and said, "Sir, don't worry, I will never let the prince's reputation fall. It's important to ensure the safety of our people first, and then lure Chen Fang under the city gate."

She asked the general to go to the wounded barracks for treatment, and arranged for a military doctor to respond to Chen Fang. At the same time, she also treated the wounded A4 class soldiers.

Finally, he ordered Mr. Pang: "Have someone go to the base to invite Chen Luoxue back to the city. In addition, go and greet the imperial envoy. The imperial envoy must arrive in Youzhou within three days!"

For some reason, when he heard the princess say she wanted to apologize, Mr. Pang felt that Chen Fang should not be indulged and the princess should not be wronged.

He even felt that Jia Si would rather die than see the princess apologize to someone like Chen Fang for saving him.

But at this moment, when he heard the princess calmly issuing orders one by one, Mr. Pang felt his heart even higher.

He asked tentatively: "Is the princess planning to deal with Chen Fang selfishly?"

Taking the opportunity to blackmail the imperial envoy Chen Xingyao, dare to do something detrimental to Youzhou, and immediately blame the Chen family for what Chen Fang did?

Shen Dongsu said every word: "I want him to die!"

Mr. Pang took a deep breath and felt relieved. His anxious heart finally felt at ease.

Then he asked: "How does the princess plan to let him die?"

Different ways of death bring different consequences.

Assassinations in the countryside can be attributed to Tatars or rogue bandits.

He used Chen Xingyao's hand to kill people and sow discord between the branches of the Chen family and the main family.

There is another way to die, which is the most sensational and the most difficult.

That is……

"In front of the whole city, according to the laws of Youzhou, he was beheaded for the crime of killing civilians and attacking soldiers!"

Mr. Pang:……
