Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine

Accidents are always expected first.

That night, a group of soldiers suddenly rushed into the stockade. The group in front held torches, and a man rode in behind on horseback.

Yao Shu was awakened by a burst of noise. She opened the door and saw everyone in chaos. She frowned subconsciously.

"What happened?" She subconsciously grabbed a running man.

The man shook his head, indicating that he wouldn't be able to explain clearly for a while.

Yao Shu got up and quickly chased after him with the Shen family.

They came to the central square of the stockade and saw everyone standing here. Some men had been firmly grasped by this group of soldiers.

The man on horseback shouted loudly: "You bandits will be captured at your own hands. I can guarantee that you will suffer less. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."

Yao Shu felt that the voice was very familiar. She squinted her eyes and took a closer look, only to find that it was Young Master Li.

The way Mr. Li showed off his power on horseback made Yao Shu feel very eye-catching.

She and Shen Nanshan looked at each other and immediately stood up to look for Xiao Rui.

At this time, Xiao Rui was discussing with a group of men how to deal with it. When the men saw Yao Shu appearing in front of them, they immediately grabbed her wrist and were furious.

"It must be them, they are the ones who lured these officers and soldiers here. Now all of us will be hanged as bandits!"

From the man's few words, Yao Shu roughly understood the situation.

She frowned and looked at Xiao Rui in front of her: "This is not the official who sealed us. The official who sealed us is still behind and will arrive tomorrow morning at the earliest."

It was still a few hours before dawn. Looking at Mr. Li's posture, Yao Shu began to worry about whether the village could survive this period of time.

She looked at Mr. Li not far away and subconsciously clenched her fists.

"I didn't expect to meet this person anywhere. He is really haunted. I will go over and ask him now, why are you here to surround us?" Shen Qiu has already put himself into the role of the village. He likes the atmosphere here very much. I don't want to see this place destroyed.

Yao Shu quickly grabbed him: "You are in the military camp now. If you go forward now and he threatens you with military orders to surround and suppress the people in the village, will you listen or not?"

Shen Qiu was immediately stunned. He had to admit that Yao Shu was right.

If he steps forward rashly, he might shoot himself in the foot.

Thinking of this, he was very angry.

Angrily, he threw down the knife in his hand, not knowing how to deal with it for a moment.

Xiao Rui also saw that they and the people on horseback were not the same group, so he said softly: "I know they were not lured here by you, but now our stockade is in danger, and there is really no way to wait for the arrival of the officials tomorrow. We have so many strong men here, if we give it a try, maybe we can still win?"

"What if we lose?" Yao Shu held his arm tightly, worried that he would act impulsively.

"If I lose, I can only say that I am asking for trouble. I am incapable of protecting everyone, and I can't blame others." After saying that, he gently broke away from Yao Shu's restraints.

Seeing that the people in the village were about to rush out, Yao Shu shouted anxiously: "I don't know why Young Master Li came suddenly."

For a short time, everyone froze on the spot, looking straight at Yao Shu.

Yao Shu deliberately asked Shen Qiu to hide aside so that Mr. Li would not see him. Then, Shen Nanshan was asked to go immediately to find the official who had been sealed, hoping that the official would come here early and stop what Mr. Li would do next.

But Shen Bei was worried that Shen Anshan would be intercepted alone, so he offered to go looking for it with Shen Nanshan.

At this time, Mr. Li immediately turned his head and saw Yao Shu appearing here, and the expression on his face gradually became excited.

"I didn't expect to see Mrs. Shen here. I wonder why Mrs. Shen is with these bandits? If I remember correctly, the emperor should have asked the Shen family to go to the disaster relief. Have you already betrayed the emperor? Now I will establish myself as the king of the mountains." Mr. Li was speechless as he spoke.

His gaze made Yao Shu feel particularly uncomfortable, and she subconsciously retorted: "Master Li is still talking nonsense because he can't produce any evidence. Master Li is also a court official and should know that everything must be based on evidence. Nowadays , you said you were here to encircle and suppress the bandits, where are the bandits, and where is your search warrant?"

Yao Shu's words made the expression on Mr. Li's face suddenly become cold.

He snorted coldly: "If I remember correctly, Mrs. Shen should not have any official position now. In other words, the Shen family does not have any official position. As ordinary people, if you interfere in the handling of cases by court officials, I have the right to move you as Colluding with bandits. Does Mrs. Shen think there is anything wrong with what I said?"

Seeing Mr. Li slandering Yao Shu like this, Xiao Rui couldn't bear it for a moment and said angrily: "Mrs. Shen was tied here by us. Nothing we do has anything to do with him. I hope you can take care of yourself. Don't fan the flames here. As imperial officials, since you are so confusing right and wrong, where is your face?"

Mr. Li laughed.

"Following the flames? Confusing right and wrong? I watched helplessly as Mrs. Shen took up residence in your village. Now you say I have no evidence, but we have so many pairs of eyes staring at her."

After Master Li finished speaking, his men all laughed.

He suddenly remembered something and immediately stopped smiling: "There is something I haven't told Mrs. Shen yet. I have to thank Mrs. Shen for showing us the way, otherwise we wouldn't have found this village."

Ever since the Shen family left the capital, the Minister of Rites had been sending people to follow Gao Shu.

When the Minister of Rites discovered this village, he quickly asked Mr. Li to lead troops to encircle and suppress it, in order to be able to make meritorious deeds before the Shen family.

But Mr. Li now found that he could use this opportunity to get rid of the Shen family, which also saved a lot of trouble.

Thinking of this, the expression on his face gradually became proud again.

"But I really didn't expect that the dignified Mrs. Shen would actually collude with these bandits. Even I am so disappointed, and I think the emperor must be even more disappointed. In this case, let me teach you a lesson for the emperor. Then I will take you back to the capital and examine you carefully. If your Shen family is really innocent, you won't be afraid of this, right?" After saying this, Mr. Li raised his hand.

The soldiers behind him immediately looked at the villagers in the village with vigilance, always ready to launch an attack to encircle and suppress the so-called bandits in front of them.
