Chapter 165

Having not received any news from Xuanyuan Qing for three whole days, Qian Yue felt as if she was being tortured on an iron plate.

Rumors that the Ninth Prince colluded with Helian Luan were spreading throughout the city.Not only did the prince's subordinates not have anyone to stop the rumors, but they became more and more violent!
"Imperial Concubine, Lord Zhuoda has mobilized the guards patrolling the city to temporarily suppress the agitated people." Suzaku comforted softly.

"This is just the beginning." Qian Yue replied in a deep voice, "Suppression can't solve the current predicament."

"Miss, miss! A group of people are coming towards the other courtyard, and they are about to rush over." Xi Qiu ran out of breath, raised his finger and pointed outside.

Qian Yue walked out, "Go and see!"

The emotions of the people have always been in a state of madness. In the face of life and death, they only want the truth!
These people whose emotions are close to out of control, when faced with instigation, almost no one can come to their senses.The rumors spread everywhere were fueled, and they felt that their trust had been ruthlessly destroyed, and they were not willing to just stay in the resettlement place, but rushed directly to the other courtyard of the city lord.

They need a result. Where did the food go? !

This is what Xuanyuan Cheng wants to see.

He stood on top of a high-rise building, watching the people rushing towards the other courtyard, a sneer slowly curled up on the corner of his lips.

popular opinion?What is popular opinion?How much is it worth?

The noise outside was deafening. Seeing this situation, Qinglong and the others immediately closed the door of the mansion, but they couldn't stop the angry voices outside.Zhuo Da heard the news and immediately brought people to help.

"Imperial Concubine, the people are all gathered outside the mansion, and they will rush in in a while." Suzaku looked at Qian Yue nervously, but found that Qian Yue's expression was calm, as if he was wondering something.

"The news came that the food was robbed by Helian Luan?" Qian Yue suddenly confirmed again.

"Yes." Suzaku looked at Qian Yue's appearance, feeling very anxious, why is the imperial concubine so shocked at this time?

The sound of wheels rolling slowly sounded, and Liu Feng's figure slowly appeared in front of Qian Yue.

"Xiao Qing said before that no matter what happens, he will be given ten days."

"I know." Qian Yue nodded, and then, her determined voice sounded, "If the food was taken away so easily, it means that there must be something wrong with that batch of food."

Liufeng nodded in agreement, but at the moment, he wanted to calm down the people.

"But the common people don't understand." Suzaku listened to the clamor outside.

"I'll go out and have a look." After Qian Yue finished speaking, she walked out quickly.

"Qianqian, you can't go, the city lord Zhuoda has blocked it outside, I believe the people should be able to retreat soon." Jun Xingzhi immediately stopped her figure, those people have lost control, how can she be a weak woman Can you resist it?

Moreover, it is impossible to do something to the people at this time, otherwise it will only arouse conflicts.

"The person they want to see is me." Qian Yue said in a deep voice, and walked out resolutely.

As soon as Qian Yue's figure appeared, the people immediately became excited.

"Imperial Concubine, where is the Ninth Prince now? Is he in collusion with Helian Luan?!"

"Where is the food? Did His Highness the Ninth Prince really transfer the food to Helian Luan?"

"Return our food!"

"Return our food!"

"Those are our life-saving food!"

The people's voices sounded one after another, and the delicate voice in front of the door seemed to gather all their hopes.

"Do you believe His Highness Ninth Prince will collude with Helian Luan?" Qian Yue's voice sounded clear.

"I'm just asking this question, do you believe it?" Her voice sounded again, sonorous and powerful!

The boiling people suddenly quieted down.

"Please tell us, imperial concubine, where did the food go? Why did His Highness the Ninth Prince lose contact again? Why was the 3000 troops sent almost wiped out?! We are waiting for the food to survive! Something went wrong, wouldn't we Are these ordinary people waiting to die?" In the crowd, a middle-aged man's voice sounded, and his attire was no different from that of ordinary people.

"We want the truth!" Some people also echoed.

"Yes, we just want the truth, and we don't want to starve to death here."

"Zhuo Da! Take down the guard." Qian Yue stood in front of the mansion gate and shouted at Zhuo Da.

"No!" Zhuo Da refused with a serious expression. If this is withdrawn, there may not be any chaos.

"Please wait a little longer, there is no news about the Ninth Prince, we have to trust the Ninth Prince!" Zhuo Da shouted towards the crowd.

The common people were shocked by this rough voice, looking at the city lord who loved the people like a son, the scene suddenly fell silent.

"Do you still remember the Snow Festival a few days ago?" Zhuo Da's voice sounded again.

Many people's expressions were moved, but they were too hungry to bear it, and in the face of life and death, nothing seemed important.They need to know where the food went, they want food!
Qian Yue stepped forward and stood by Zhuo Da's side, "Take off your defenses, we can't hurt the common people."

"Yes." Seeing that everyone's emotions had stabilized, Zhuo Da raised his hand and removed the guard blocking the door.

Qian Yue stepped forward and walked forward, and the people spontaneously took a few steps back.She stood alone on the steps, looking at the hungry people.

"Could it be that His Highness the Ninth Highness and Helian Luan are colluding secretly based on just one letter? Even if nothing happens, the grain and grass are still in the process of being escorted. Please calm down first, impulsiveness will not solve any problems. "Qian Yue's voice sounded clearly every word.

"If we are not impulsive, what can we solve?" A voice in the crowd rang out excitedly.

"Yeah! We watched our relatives starve to death. Maybe it will be our turn next! We are all young, and the old ones don't even have the strength to come. Who knows what will happen?" How long will it last?!" Another voice rang out.

The mood of the people seemed to fluctuate a little, and an unspeakable sadness swept over.

Qian Yue looked at those two people, her brows slightly tightened, "Have you met these two people before?" She turned to Zhuo Da and asked.

"Don't worry, imperial concubine, I will send someone to investigate later." Zhuo Da responded softly, and he also felt that these two people were suspected of inciting the common people.

"I can't give you an answer, but as long as I'm here, I can guarantee that the grain and grass will be delivered safely! Please give me another ten days, wait for ten days, after ten days, if there is no news , let everyone deal with it!" Qian Yue said to the common people in a deep voice.

"Imperial Concubine!" Zhuo Da called out nervously, a little worried, he would rather stand up and promise him now than let a woman take on such a responsibility.

"On the day of the Snow Festival, everyone's trust in the Ninth Prince is vividly remembered. Could it be that they can't even give them ten days?" Qian Yue asked again.

The common people began to discuss a lot, and compared to the excitement when they first came, the mood has calmed down a lot.

"Ten days? The Ninth Imperial Concubine knows how many people will starve to death in ten days!"

"I believe that His Highness the Crown Prince will not sit idly by." Qian Yue responded coldly.

Sure enough, when the man heard His Royal Highness, he shrank his neck and stepped aside.

Qian Yue looked at the man's performance, a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she clenched her fists secretly.All of this was probably directed and acted by Xuanyuan Cheng himself. No matter what, she couldn't follow Xuanyuan Cheng's wishes.

"Everyone please trust me, especially the Ninth Prince." Qian Yue's eyes swept over the crowd, and the people gradually became quiet.

"The Ninth Concubine is willing to take it all on her own, and in order to make us feel at ease, she must show something." Another voice sounded.

"That's right! Empty words have no proof, how can we be convinced like this?" A voice echoed from the crowd.

"What do you want?" Qian Yue asked coldly.

"According to the way of the people in the northwest, if you take responsibility yourself, you will be supervised by the people." The man's voice sounded again.

Qian Yue understood that what he meant was to take her down and control her first, and then make a decision based on the situation after ten days.

"The Nine Emperor Consorts have a noble status, so you can dispose of them at will!" Zhuo Da was furious, his eyes swept over everyone one by one, these people must not be ordinary people!

Qian Yue smiled lightly and looked at these two people, "If it is found out that the Ninth Prince did not collude with Helian Luan and sent a little bit of food to the northwest, have you ever thought about the consequences of tying me up?"

"At that time, I will fully bear the consequences!" The man patted his chest, "Or is it that the Ninth Imperial Concubine is just delaying the attack and fooling us?"

What a provocative method!

"Where are you going to tie me up?" Qian Yue's voice sounded faintly.

"The center of the square in the north of the city is also a place to take in the common people. We common people will take care of it!" The man's voice sounded again.

Qian Yue turned her head to look at Liu Feng, and questioned him with her eyes, only to see him nodded slowly, Qian Yue immediately turned her gaze to the people.

"I agree!" If you don't agree to the request of these people, the matter may not be calmed down. By then, the disturbance will become more and more serious, and it will eventually reach an irreversible point.

"You can go alone, without any guards." The man asked again.

"No!" Zhuo Da immediately refused, looking angrily at the common people in front of him, his eyes were about to burst into flames.

"I'm just a maidservant, not a guard, I'll be with my lady." Xi Qiu immediately ran out and stood beside Qian Yue, her eyes swept over everyone, "People, are you going to be so aggressive? "

The people were suddenly speechless.

"Yes!" A voice suddenly sounded from the crowd, and he was seen walking slowly from the back to the front, all in tatters.

It's him!Qian Yue's expression changed slightly, she was a little surprised, isn't this beggar a lunatic?
