Invincible at the beginning: I seek the world in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 77, People's Will

In the noisy vegetable market, three or two people gathered together to discuss the massacre in front of the Duke's Mansion and the failure of the people's petition in front of the Imperial City Gate.

"Fathers and folks, the country will not be the country!" A middle-aged man looked up to the sky and cried loudly, "The former emperor was so benevolent and righteous, our grandparents and fathers settled in Western Chu for this reason. Now... alas."

"Hmph, the court officials are just a bunch of drunks and rice bags, they don't care about the common people, they are greedy for ink, they fill their own pockets!" a martial artist from Western Chu yelled angrily.

"You can't say that, Old Prime Minister Chen is still very good." A woman interrupted.

"That's right, but the imperial court is nothing more than an official of old Prime Minister Chen!"

"If the old prime minister is here, how could it be so?"

"Oh, don't talk too much, or we'll lose our heads." An old man shook his head and sighed.

A man snorted coldly, "I'm all alone, and I'm not afraid of those stupid officials. The big deal, go to Nantang, go to Beili, the world is so big, how can he manage it in Western Chu?"

"Sooner or later, the country will perish!"

Most of those who dare to speak and curse loudly are people who go to the rivers and lakes, while the local people can only complain in their hearts and sometimes echo them.

A figure struck, like a mighty spring breeze.

"Eh? Who is that person? Why did you grab someone with a sword?" A sharp-eyed person wondered.

"So light work! Such a young man, tsk, looks familiar." A man with a knife said to himself.

"Who was caught here? The scarlet python robe. Which big man touched the brow of this high-grade warrior?"

"The clothes of the emperor's relatives, could it be that he is the Duke of the country?" A person who is familiar with this point pointed out.

"What? Duke? It's that fucking Duke Jing?"

Jiang Wangsheng's eyes were cold, and he dragged Jing Guogong to fly at a low altitude, so that the people in the city could take a good look at his desperate appearance.

"Get down!" Jiang Wangsheng yelled, throwing Duke Jing to the ground.

He jumped down and stepped on Duke Jing.

Jiang Wangsheng glanced at the people surrounding him, and said with a smile: "Everyone, the person under my feet is the father of the concubine Zhen who made money to buy land and made everyone resentful—Jing Guogong!"

As soon as the voice fell, everyone was in an uproar.

"Is he the Duke of Jing? It's time! Finally kicked the iron board."

"Who is this hero? Dare to hold the Duke hostage?"

A swordsman said, "I've met him before. He is Jiang Wangsheng, the Second Young Master of Jiangfu, Minister of the Ministry of War."

"Jiang Wansheng? Is that the young master who killed Chen Yiqing?"

"Only with his skill, can he be easily taken down."

The news was spread to ten, ten to hundreds, sweeping the whole city like a plague.

Everyone came to watch.

in the hall.

Emperor Chu was furious, "Don't meet you, do you know who it is?"

"This..." Bie Fengjun looked at Yang Xiao and Huang Yingjun.

Huang Yingjun immediately understood that the one who could blatantly break into the Duke's mansion to take people was a member of the Nationalist Party, and the answer was ready to come out.

The young eunuch Xiao Jiu stepped forward and whispered in Emperor Chu's ear.

"Jiang Wangsheng?"

The Emperor Chu's face was complicated, he thought of the sword still stuck outside the palace gate, and shouted: "He is so courageous, does he still want to kill the Duke?"

"Xiao Jiu, take the Imperial Army, the Xuanjia Army, and everyone you can mobilize to rescue Duke Jing! Also, kill Jiang Wangsheng!" Emperor Chu said loudly.

Yang Xiao looked at Huang Yingjun, Huang Yingjun said in a low voice: "No problem, if the Xiantian Grandmaster wants to leave, they can't stop them."

Bie Fengjun turned his eyes and said: "Your Majesty, if I guess correctly, the people of the entire Tianwang City may have gathered there."

"So?" Chu Huang's tone was cold.

"Your Majesty! Do you think Duke Jing can still be innocent if he provoked the anger of the whole city?"

Yang Xiao echoed: "Your Majesty, if you do many injustices, you will be killed yourself. Duke Jing has damaged the foundation of the country. According to the laws of my Great Chu, he should be punished!"

"Even if you want to kill, I will kill you. When will it be his turn?" Chu Huang retorted.

"Your Majesty, Duke Jing is the father of Concubine Zhen. If you kill her, I'm afraid it will arouse suspicion among the common people," said Minister of Justice.

"you!"

Huang Yingjun said: "Your Majesty, Duke Jing has committed a heinous crime. I hope you will stop protecting him, Your Majesty."

Chu Huang clenched his hands tightly, his nails almost pierced into his flesh, and he roared loudly when he saw all the normally docile officials come to refute him.

"You guys are so brave!"

"I dare not." Everyone bowed in unison.

Chu Huang was even more angry, this punch seemed to hit the cotton.

Bie Fengjun took out another memorial, presented it to the Emperor of Chu, and said righteously: "Your Majesty, do you know why the northern battlefield lost thousands of miles of territory? It was because Jing Guogong sent people to rob the army's food and grass, which made the front line useless." Do not retreat!"

This is undoubtedly a blockbuster.

The Emperor of Chu was stunned for a moment, and said in disbelief, "Stolen food and grass?"

The young eunuch looked around, took Bie Fengjun's memorial first, and handed it to Emperor Chu.

Emperor Chu snatched it over, opened it and read it carefully, "How could this happen?"

Afterwards, the young eunuch retreated and ordered someone to arrest Jiang Wangsheng.

"Your Majesty, Duke Jing used the money he had greedily acquired to buy land, and the people used Duke Jing's money to buy the grain and grass released by Duke Jing. In this way, he got the land of the people at no cost! "Bie Fengjun introduced the cause and effect of the matter.

Emperor Chu's body trembled slightly, he gritted his teeth, "Retire!"

"What? Your Majesty" Yang Xiao was about to continue persuading, but the Emperor Chu cut him off: "Retire!"

Cai Shi Kou

Jiang Wangsheng sat on Jing Guogong, surrounded by rotten eggs, rotten vegetables and other filthy things thrown by the people.

"Young Xia wants to execute him?" One person asked.

Everyone held their breath, waiting for his answer.

"Such thieves should be punished!" Jiang Wangsheng said while pulling Jing Guogong's hair and showing his face to the crowd.

"Good kill!"

Duke Jing's face was rewarded with rotten eggs again.

"Jiang Wangsheng, you, let me go." Jing Guogong was so angry that his whole body was suppressed by internal force and he couldn't move.

"Hey, do you know me?"

Duke Jing said coldly: "In the entire Western Chu, only you are so bold and reckless."

"Young Master Jiang, you have stood up for the common people regardless of safety, please accept my next obeisance!" A scholar pushed forward and bowed to Jiang Wangsheng.

"Please accept the next prayer."

Everyone reacted and saluted Jiang Wangsheng one after another.

"You dare not kill me." Duke Jing suddenly sneered.

Jiang Wangsheng put the sword aside, pressed down on his arms, exerted a sudden force, and a burst of inner strength shattered the bones and joints of his arms.

"what!"

Duke Jing screamed, his veins burst out, "If there is a day to come, I will definitely kill your whole family and your nine clans!"

"You don't even have tomorrow!" Jiang Wangsheng pressed down with a palm, violent qi poured into his whole body, like a rushing electric current, destroying his limbs and bones.

Duke Jing's eyes widened, and several mouthfuls of blood spewed out one after another.

"I am a relative of the emperor, and I am His Majesty's father-in-law. If you kill me, there will be no place for you in Western Chu, and your whole family will be implicated." Duke Jing threatened.

Jiang Wangsheng didn't bother to talk to him.

Duke Jing thought that his words had moved him, so he hurriedly said: "Don't make the same mistakes again and again, I'm not dead yet, everything can be redeemed, I can ask His Majesty to forgive you."

"You are still young and have a bright future."

"Shut up!" Jiang Wangsheng gave him a big fight, and said: "Those who want to beat him line up and come one by one."

"Okay!" A fat woman with bright eyes rushed to the strongest side and slapped him hard.

"Everyone be gentle, save his life!"

"Okay." The people agreed with all their mouths, but their hands seemed to be disobedient, and they used more and more strength, so that Jiang Wangsheng secretly sent true energy to Duke Jing to save his life.

The sound of "Papa Papa" was crisp, one after another.

After a while, Duke Jing's nose was bruised and his face was swollen, his face was purple, and blood came out of his nasal cavity.

Everyone's face was full of red, looking at the hand that just slapped, slowly savoring the aftertaste, the meaning is still unfinished, really want to do it again!
Jiang Wangsheng raised his hand, stopped everyone's movements, and said in a low voice, "Tell me everything, and I can consider to spare your life."

Jiang Wangsheng grabbed his head, "Tell everyone, what have you done! Why do so many people want to kill you!"

Seeing that no one came to rescue, Jing Guogong was heartbroken. At this time, he grabbed the straw and hurriedly said: "I, I trampled on the laws of Great Chu, bought, bought everyone's land, and even lowered the price maliciously. I let They tore down the east wall to make up for the west wall, and their families were ruined."

"Continue!" Jiang Wangsheng tugged at his ears, and said in a low voice, "I know what you're doing, and I'm not happy if you avoid the important things like this."

"I, I asked my daughter to intercede for me when she accompanied His Majesty, and His Majesty also agreed not to kill me. He also connected with high officials and pushed away Prime Minister Chen Bangzhou."

When everyone heard the words, they looked like their parents had been beaten, and they became more and more angry, staring at Duke Jing.

"anything else?"

"I let someone secretly rob the food and grass that was transported to the north. I am not a human being, and I deserve death!"

Jiang Wangsheng said: "Everyone heard clearly! The defeat in the Northern Territory War is caused by many factors, one of which is that he robbed food and grass!"

"The food sold to everyone is military food!"

"This man really deserves to die!"

A gray-haired Confucian scholar burst into tears, "So it is so, so it is so. The late emperor, the truth is finally revealed, Da Chu still has spirit!"

"Young Master Jiang, I will be worshipped by the old man!" The old Confucian scholar clasped his hands together.

"Lü~" The horses charged, dispersed the crowd and opened a road.

A group of armored soldiers were the first to bear the brunt, followed by a hundred elites.

"By His Majesty's order, kill the national traitor Jiang Wangsheng!"

Xiaojiu, a young eunuch, borrowed the luck of the Western Chu Kingdom and vowed to kill the thief.
