The sound of the arrow piercing through the air was heard.
It was as if the pause button had been pressed on the crowd. Everyone looked at the arrow, stunned.
At this moment, some people in the crowd raised their heads in horror and realized that there were hundreds of imperial guards with bows and arrows standing on the tree branches above their heads!
On the hill behind him, Wei Shuyu, who was dressed in shining golden armor, was slowly putting away the crossbow in her hands. At this moment, a young man wearing a bright yellow robe on a white horse also slowly urged his horse to stand on the hill.
When the soldiers of the Cheng residence saw this person, they all knelt on the ground.
"Greetings, Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
"What?"
"Crown … Crown Prince?"
"Even the Crown Prince is alarmed?"
"Oh my god … Sob sob sob, I knew it. I can't take advantage of this!"
When the crowd heard the Crown Prince's name, many people hurriedly knelt on the ground. Some were so frightened that they peed and shat.
Li Chengqian's face was very cold.
Just a moment ago, he had watched that person die!
If it wasn't for the fact that he was deployed, he wouldn't have been able to resist the urge to kill this group of rioters who had only killed about 500 people!
At this moment, Wei Shuyu urged her horse forward and said calmly, "Chengqian, leave this to me. You're too impulsive! You can't do this! "
As she spoke, Wei Shuyu shouted coldly, "Everyone, kneel!"
"Anyone who doesn't kneel will be treated as a mob and shot to death!"
"Kneel!"
Instantly, a large group of imperial guards rushed out from all over the mountain and shouted angrily in unison.
At this moment, all the citizens finally panicked.
Above them, the imperial guards drew their bows even more.
It was as if they would immediately shoot anyone who did not kneel.
At this moment, among the people kneeling on the ground, someone lowered his head and shouted in horror, "Your Highness the Crown Prince, the imperial guards are killing people. Are you not going to do anything?"
"Whoosh —!"
However, what awaited him was a cold arrow!
This made all the citizens even more panicked.
Wei Shuyu did not seem to see it. She continued to urge her horse and looked coldly at the crowd.
"I'm sure all of you know what these people mean. I know that most of you have been bewitched, but I also know that many of you are purposely trying to create chaos and send you to your deaths!"
"I'm not a murderous person! My name is Wei Shuyu, and I'm the captain of the Golden Guards. My father is Wei Zheng, and I'm sure you all know my father's name! I'll give you a chance to turn over a new leaf! "
"Remember, I'll only say it once!"
"If you know each other, as long as you tell me your home addresses and who else is in his family, I will let you go. After the Imperial Guards in the city investigate, they will let you go home! However, if you are still lucky, then I, Wei Shuyu, will use the authority of the Golden Guards to convict you of treason! "
"Your Highness! May I ask how the crime of treason should be decided? "
Wei Shuyu didn't even turn around. The bright silver spear in her hand was even colder.
Li Chengqian said indifferently, "Nine familial extermination!"
Hearing this.
Everyone was terrified.
Among them, some could no longer sit still. They all stood up and reported their homes.
"I, I'm Wang Goudan. I live at the foot of the Ten Mile Slope. There's a big chestnut tree at the door! My family only has me and my mother. My brother joined the army three years ago and hasn't come back yet … The one beside me is called Chen Erniu. He has a cow and two sisters. His father used to be a soldier too, but now he's a cripple … "
Wang Goudan seemed to be scared out of his wits. As he spoke, he pulled the dark-skinned thirteen-year-old boy beside him, who was only wearing a loincloth, and kowtowed desperately.
Wei Shuyu waved her hand.
In an instant, two armored soldiers came forward and tied the two of them to a book. Then, they used arrows to nail a note to the two of them.
Following the lead of these two people.
More and more people also stepped forward and introduced themselves.
Among the crowd, there were still some people who panicked. Although they were kneeling on the ground and trembling, their eyes were darting around, looking for an exit.
However, they realized in despair that there were at least a thousand Imperial Guards around them!
Not far away, in the woods and beside the river, they spotted another person with sharp eyes!
Cheng Yaojin!
And behind him, there were tens of thousands of Chang 'an garrison soldiers!
This time, they were completely flustered.
The person on the treetop stared at the crowd with sharp eyes. The bow in his hand moved according to the movement of his eyes. At this moment, if anyone made the slightest movement, then …
"What should we do?"
In the crowd, there was a man who looked like a farmer. However, his face and arms were white outside of his clothes. He was not as dark as the Zhuang Family!
He used his leg to nudge the person next to him.
That person trembled as if he did not hear anything.
After a while, that person said hurriedly, "Quick, we can only take the poison now! We can't drag the family down! "
"Okay …"
The two of them seemed to have discussed it beforehand. They slowly reached into their clothes. However, the moment they took out a packet of powder and were about to throw it into their mouths …
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
In an instant, a few sharp whistling sounds made their souls fly out of their bodies!
"Puff, puff, puff, puff!"
Followed by a few muffled sounds.
The two of them were horrified to find that four arrowheads had penetrated their shoulder blades and thighs. They did not have the strength to move at all.
And this was not the most important thing.
At this moment, Wei Shuyu's ghostly voice sounded behind the two of them.
"Are you going to take the poison and commit suicide?"
"…"
