After being forced to marry a tyrant: I overturned the original plot

"The former governor of Xilin, under the pretext of the Queen Mother, slandered the emperor's holy name, enriched himself, fled with the disaster relief funds, and abandoned Shuiyue City... His crimes are too numerous to list!"

A pot-bellied man, with a board with his crimes written on it hung on his body, with his head hung low, repeated these words weakly.

"Go on, have you forgotten the words?"

Looking at Zhou Feng, who was shouting so hard that his throat was about to split, Qin Xin half-closed her eyes, swung the whip lightly, and it landed heavily on Zhou Feng's back.

Zhou Feng sniffed in pain.

He continued to recite the words "enduring the humiliation".

"I alone have brought disaster to the whole city, insulted the emperor, and damaged the reputation of the imperial court... Everyone, please leave the city and punch me to vent your anger..."

The people behind the city gate: "..."

No, even if you didn’t see the person, you can imagine that he said this with a knife at his neck.

"Who would believe that you are Zhou Feng!" someone questioned.

"No one has ever made such an outrageous request." Others were excited.

"I want to go out." Someone even expressed what most people were thinking.

"Shut up! I told you to stop shouting!"

Don't doubt it, the one howling like crazy is only Song De.

After Song De roared helplessly, he snatched the gun from the soldier on the city wall who was looking down curiously.

Throw it straight towards Zhou Feng.

Qin Xin made a trumpet shape with her hands and immediately shouted: "Song De, he is killing people to silence them!"

With his other hand, he wrapped Zhou Feng's waist around his waist and pulled him back.

I almost couldn't hold it and sprained my waist.

Behind her, Gu Fei, who was called by her to watch this good show: "..."

How should I put it, she is really something.

He pursed his lips, thought for a moment, and then raised the corners of his mouth since he was wearing a face mask.

Sui Feng behind him whispered, "Your Majesty, can the queen's throat... still be healed?"

He had inhaled too much smoke in the fire before, and just as he turned around, he started howling again.

She really is not afraid of ruining her voice.

Gu Fei chuckled.

"Don't you think it's cute?"

Even if her voice is hoarse, she is still cute.

Suifeng: “…”

Stay where you are and don't say anything more.

After Qin Xin shouted like this, Song De was at a loss.

He was stunned for ten seconds, which was enough time for Qin Xin, who was quick-tongued, to launch the next wave of attacks.

"Song De, what are you thinking? We have come all the way here to deliver food and medicine to the people, but you want to burn the granaries and medicine warehouses, and now you won't let the people leave the city!

You old man, you just want to be the boss and don't care about the lives of the people. You are really vicious!"

"Shut up! Did you hear me when I told you to shut up?"

Song De was so angry that he jumped on the city wall and slapped the soldier next to him on the head.

"Hurry up and call the archers to shoot them to death!"

The soldier covered his head and thought that this man was sick.

He hesitated: "The general didn't give the order."

They only obeyed the general's orders.

"Then I think you are just following orders and don't care about your life."

As soon as Song De turned the handle of the knife, the sharp-eyed Qin Xin below immediately turned into a soprano——

"Someone, come here! Song De is so angry that he wants to kill the sentinels guarding the city! He's crazy. The soldiers have been guarding Shuiyue City day and night, and he kills them just like that—

General Guan, soldiers, and common people, do you really want to be in league with such a ruthless bandit? "

If Qin Xin had a somewhat funny temperament before, now, every word she said came from the heart, and her indignation seemed to be contagious...

Even though there was a door between them, it was hard for the people inside not to be moved.

"Let us out of the city!"

"Open the city gate!"

The people became even more excited. They shouted until their faces turned red and their necks became thick, causing the soldiers guarding the city gate to dare not move for a while.

They all looked at Guan Yong.

When Qin Xin shouted at Song De to kill the sentry, Guan Yong's eyes were filled with regret.

At this moment, so many pairs of eyes were looking at him eagerly and questioningly, making him feel like he was being roasted on fire.

It's extremely painful.

"General Guan!"

An old woman knelt down in front of Guan Yong, clasped her hands and prayed to him.

"Please, open the city gate and let us out... My little grandson is dying! The chief of Song Village threw the sick out of the city to fend for themselves, and we dared not resist.

But my grandson is only two years old! If we throw him out, he will surely die... In order to protect him, we can only conceal the truth... Now, he has had a fever for two days. If he is not treated, my Chen family will really be extinct!"

The old woman kowtowed to Guan Yong repeatedly, her voice filled with grief and despair.

Guan Yong staggered back a step. He looked at these people and began to doubt what he had been doing these days.

In the end, is he right or wrong?

"Let's see who dares to open the city gate."

Song De realized the seriousness of the situation and ignored Qin Xin outside. He was afraid that the group of stupid soldiers at the door would open the door first and welcome the imperial troops in.

He hurried down the city wall and said to his brothers.

"Whoever dares to open the door will be killed without mercy!"

The bandits in the mountain stronghold naturally listened to him and threatened the people who were trying to leave with their knives in hand.

"Protect the people! Song De, you are crazy!"

Although Guan Yong was struggling over whether to open the city gate, he always stuck to his principles and ordered his soldiers to protect the unarmed civilians.

In front of the city gate, the two sides fought fiercely.

Before the imperial horses even set foot inside, Shuiyue City was already in chaos.

Guan Yong helped up an old man who had fallen to the ground due to injuries from the violent suppression, but the old man pushed him away.

"Bah! You hypocrite! You and Song De are in the same group!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the old man was stabbed from behind by Song De.

The white blade went in and the red blade came out. Guan Yong looked at the tip of the knife, then looked at the old man who fell to the ground and died with his eyes open, and he couldn't help but beat his chest in regret.

"Damn you Song De! I'm going to fight you!"

The sound of fighting inside did not make Qin Xin and Gu Fei happy——

The premise of sitting on the mountain and watching tigers fight is to avoid hurting innocent people.

But obviously, those screaming inside were all innocent civilians.

Qin Xin bit her lip and looked at Gu Fei helplessly——

"Is my method... too radical?"

She just wanted to get into the city quickly and control the epidemic, but she didn't expect Song De to be as cruel as she said.

Gu Fei held her wrist.

"you are right."

It's the human heart that's wrong.

"General Guan, open the city gates now. The imperial court is entering the city only to control the epidemic and treat the people. Those who surrender their weapons will not be killed, and those who repent will be given a lighter sentence!"

Gu Fei took a few steps forward, cleared his throat, and spoke loudly.

"We never wanted Shuiyue City. You can see that without the people, it's just an empty city. If the court wants, they can just bring everyone out.

But if we do this, the young child with a high fever and the old man with a disease who has no medicine will just wait to die in vain."

"If your heart is for the people, then you and the imperial court have the same goal, and we can join forces at any time."

"Who are you? Why should I trust you? I can die, but in the eyes of the court, my soldiers are also traitors. What about them? With just an imperial envoy, how can I guarantee that the emperor will not take revenge on me later?!"

Guan Yong knocked the knife out of Song De's hand and spat out a mouthful of blood foam. He raised his voice and expressed his real hesitation.

"Listen carefully, my name is Gu Fei, and I am the emperor you mentioned. My words about giving lenient punishment to those who repent are my golden words, and I will never change them!"
