Yang Zhao was shocked, nodded heavily, and replied in a deep voice: "General, Yang Zhao is fine. ?????? ?"
Ni Qing nodded with a smile and said in a low voice: "Let's go, don't worry, the general will be there for everything. You and I will stand up for these innocent people who died tragically."
The boulder in Yang Zhao's heart slowly dropped, his eyes heated up, and when his words came to his lips, he finally let out a long sigh.
When walking past Ye Shiyao, Ye Shiyao was helping Ye Xiaoxi bandage Han Qinghai's wounds, but she didn't seem to see Yang Zhao. The corner of Yang Zhao's mouth twitched, and he left sadly without speaking.
Little did they know that Ye Shiyao, who had her back turned to everyone, had tears falling down like broken bead curtains, soaking Han Qinghai's clothes.
Ye Xiaoxi stood up and called softly: "Brother Shi."
Yang Zhao froze for a moment, then turned around and looked at Ye Xiaoxi, his expression unclear, but filled with endless guilt.
Ye Xiaoxi bit her lip and said in a low voice: "Brother Shi, goodbye."
Yang Zhao smiled bitterly, took a breath, and said in a deep voice: "Farewell."
It seemed like he wanted to say sorry, but he still couldn't say it and left without looking back.
When everyone returned to the village, the fire was much weaker. Fortunately, the house was not far from the river. The villagers who could still move hurriedly fetched water and put out the fire. However, they were also devastated, with broken bricks and tiles, and they were groaning.
Mu Tianlang soldiers also helped the villagers put out the fire. After nearly an hour of work, the fire was suppressed.
Li Luo and Yun Wuyan stood on the road, looking at the ruins of the village, feeling speechless.
Yun Wuyan said softly: "General, do you want to stay for a few more days?"
Li Luo slowly shook his head and said, "No, let's go down the mountain."
Yun Wuyan looked at the smoke-filled village in front of him and said in a deep voice: "General, I have taken Chen and Xue into custody. I'm afraid there will be criticism among the officials. No matter what happens in Lian Yun Village, they always rob passing merchants first."
, if we don’t pursue it, it will be difficult to calm the public opinion.”
Li Luo was speechless, and sighed for a long time: "Having said that, the government is unkind, the people are resentful, and the government is forcing the people to rebel. This kind of government really chills the people of the world.
That's all, I have my own reasons. If the government blames me, I will bear the responsibility alone, and I will always give the people of the world a chance to breathe."
Seeing that Li Luo was frustrated, Yun Wuyan stopped trying to persuade him and sighed.
After a while, Chi Li and Hucha Dongchan returned with the Mutianlang soldiers. When Chi Li saw Li Luo, he said happily: "General."
Li Luo smiled and said, "General Chi, thank you for your hard work."
Chi Li replied loudly: "It's nothing, General, are you okay?" After saying that, he wiped his face, but the smoke was smeared on his face, making it black.
Li Luo nodded slightly, took the white scroll, and handed it to Chi Li. Chi Li was stunned for a moment, then saw Hucha Dongchan snickering beside him. He suddenly understood and hurriedly took it, thanked him, and wiped his face a few times, hehe.
He smiled and said nothing.
The villagers in the village had already settled down and were only panicked when they disappeared.
Ye Shiyao and the others calmed down the people in the village and gathered together to whisper something, looking back at Li Luo and the others from time to time.
Li Luo raised his voice and called out: "Master Ye Village, please move forward and explain."
Ye Shiyao and others walked over, followed by a group of villagers from the village, supporting each other, and when they came to Li Luo and others, Ye Shiyao responded calmly: "What advice does the prince have?"
Li Luo forced a smile, with a bleak expression, and said slowly: "The government is unethical, and the people in the village have suffered. Li Luo apologizes to you." After saying this, he bowed deeply.
Ye Shiyao and others were stunned. They stretched out their hands, but they couldn't help them, and they didn't know what to say.
Although the villagers narrowly escaped death because of the government's persecution, if it hadn't been for Li Luo, most of them would have died at the hands of the officers and soldiers today.
Several people looked at each other in disbelief. Li Luo, the majesty of His Highness Gan Jiu, found it hard to accept such a great gift.
Ye Shiyao's heart softened, she turned sideways, did not receive Li Luo's salute, and said lowly: "Your Majesty, we are all ordinary people, we cannot afford such a great gift from Your Majesty. Hey, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid we would all be prisoners now, so thank you.
Your Majesty’s grace for rebirth.”
Li Luo smiled bitterly and said: "I was also wrong. When I first followed you up the mountain, my thoughts were the same as those of the government. In fact, I wanted to use this to destroy the village. However, I have been in the village for a long time, and I know that this is not your intention.
, I should have stopped the officers and soldiers earlier, if you want to complain, then blame me."
"What's the use of blaming you?" Ye Shiyao replied sadly: "If you can bring the villagers back to life by blaming you, I will blame you for the rest of my life."
"Shi Yao!" Han Gong and Ye Zhushan shouted hurriedly. Seeing the dissatisfaction and murderous intent on the faces of Mu Tianlang's soldiers, they were afraid that Li Luo would get angry and cause trouble, so they hurriedly tried to dissuade him.
Li Luo's expression was as usual, showing no signs of joy or anger, and he said softly: "I will definitely give you justice for what happened today. If the government fails to be moral and evil, I will punish them severely and tell the world."
Ye Zhushan bowed deeply and said respectfully: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."
"However, from today onwards, Lianyun Village is not allowed to carry out any more looting. If I hear about it again, I will personally lead the Mu Tianlang soldiers to return to the village. Speaking of the killing spirit, I compare it to Chen Hechen and Xue
I'm sure you've heard of me showing you a hundredfold victory, so don't blame me for being ruthless."
Ye Shiyao replied coldly: "Your Majesty, if we can survive without being oppressed by the government, everyone in Lianyun Village must obey the law and abide by the law, and there will never be any robbery or robbery."
Li Luo nodded slowly and said calmly: "If there are still Chen Xue's people roaming the countryside, if you are against it, then you should be against it."
Everyone in Lian Yunzhai was stunned, not knowing what Li Luo meant by his words.
Yun Wuyan whispered: "General, no."
Li Luo smiled casually and said: "The heaven and the earth are unkind and treat all things as stupid dogs. When that time comes, I will be an official and I will not be at odds with you. We will each accept our destiny. We will see you on the battlefield."
Ye Shiyao and others understood, and they all looked at Li Luo, unable to tell what this handsome and tired prince was thinking.
"One more thing. After the Yunshan Mansion incident is over, you need to return the money robbed in the village to the government. You can hand over as much as you have. Only what has been used this time will be left alone. The business travelers recorded in the Yunshan Mansion
, I have to make up for it, Yang Zhao will mediate this matter, don’t embarrass him."
Ye Shiyao was sad and nodded silently.
Li Luo glanced at the villagers in the village again, and said in a deep voice: "Although Lianyun Village is a paradise, so many people have no way to recuperate here, so they can all settle down near the foot of the mountain, where they can live in the fields, and the government will be restored."
Once registered, local officials will do their best to help."
Seeing Li Luo's thoughtfulness, everyone thanked him sincerely. They felt mixed with joy and sorrow, not knowing whether to hate the Dagan court or to thank him.
Li Luo bowed his hands and said, "You can decide for yourself what to do in the future. I hope you and I will meet again if we have the chance."
Ye Shiyao was stunned and said, "Are you leaving?"
