Chapter 1765 Riot
The old man wiped the tears overflowing from the corners of his eyes, his wrinkled face was full of sadness, Chu Qing couldn't bear to see it.

Ye Chenxi sniffed and said, "Grandma, don't worry, when the rain stops, I will go to the government office to seek justice for you."

"Girl, it's said that people don't fight with officials, let alone you little girl." The mother-in-law smiled wryly and shook her head. She patted Ye Chenxi's hand and said, "That's all, it's fate."

The old man on the side nodded and said to Chu Qing: "The rain has stopped, you should leave quickly. It's not my old man who drove you away. I'm really afraid that those officials will come and find out that you are doing business. Then they will grab you again." I miss you."

Chu Qing frowned tightly, and said: "Grandpa, mother-in-law, don't be afraid, I will see if they dare to rob me then."

The old man and the old woman looked at each other, the old man looked Chu Qing up and down, and asked, "Young man, who are you?"

Chu Qing sat up straight, with blazing eyes, and said, "I am the reminder for those corrupt officials."

"A reminder?" The old man looked at Chu Qing puzzled, not understanding what he meant.

Ye Chenxi got up and walked in front of Chu Qing, saw Chu Qing nodding to her, and said directly: "We are ordered by His Majesty the Emperor to come down to investigate the situation, as you said, in the name of taxation, to force Officials who plunder and disregard human lives are the ones we want to kill."

"So you are... imperial envoys."

Chu Qing nodded. Although this was a fake, the emperor would probably agree with him if he knew about it. After all, they couldn't expose their inevitable purpose.

Seeing that Chu Qing admitted, the old man became excited instantly, and everyone else in the room also cheered happily, with hope in their eyes.

When the villagers were happy, there was a sudden messy sound outside, and the people in the house immediately ran out to check.

Chu Qing and Ye Chenxi also stood up. Their purpose now is to escort gifts to neighboring countries, so they must be careful in everything.

"People from the government office have come. They are searching from house to house. Some people can't stand it and fight."

When the other people in the room heard this, they immediately forgot about Chu Qing and Ye Chenxi, picked up their things and rushed out.

Seeing this, Chu Qing and Ye Chenxi hurriedly followed. These are ordinary people who don't have enough to eat and don't wear warm clothes. How can they fight against those officers and soldiers who eat meat and drink every day.

People from the government office searched from house to house, and immediately took away valuables when they saw them. If the owner stepped forward to argue, they would do it without saying a word.

After coming down several houses in a row, the people next to them couldn't stand it, and rushed up after taking the guy who was handy next to them.

One move, ten moves, a hundred moves.All the villagers rushed to the officers and soldiers, and the officers and soldiers fought back vigorously.

There are more villagers than officers and soldiers, but the officers and soldiers have better physical strength than the villagers, and for a while, people on both sides were injured.

The sudden riot caught Chu Qing and Ye Chenxi by surprise. When they arrived, they saw the officers and soldiers beating people. Just as they were about to stop it, the villagers rioted.

"Chu Qing, what should we do now?"

Chu Qing looked at the villagers and officers and soldiers who were fighting together, frowned and said, "Protect the gifts first."

Ye Chenxi nodded, and the two hurried back to the escort team, but because the escort team was nearby, the sudden riot also affected them.

Chu Qing and Ye Chenxi were in the chaos, desperately protecting the box containing the presents. The current situation made them wonder what to do for a while.

Chu Qing looked gloomyly at the officers and soldiers who were beating the villagers beside him. To be honest, he was used to the intrigue among officials and saw them fighting openly and covertly too much, but it was the first time he saw people oppressing the common people like this.
