The Yongding Gate, which was originally thought to be closed, was now wide open, and seven or eight carriages were lining up to leave the city.
Clenching the reins in his hands, Zhao Yanxun was filled with rage and said word by word: "Go...stop all these bastards!"
Upon hearing the order, the palace guards immediately took action, and the rapid sound of horse hooves sounded in the empty long street.
Inside the Yongding Gate, the stewards of each government were arranging relations. When they heard the sound of horse hooves, they turned around consciously.
"What's the situation? Isn't the city under martial law?" A steward asked in confusion.
The gentlemen of each family, the exquisite houses, the darling wives and the concubines are all in the city, but the land, real estate, grain and goods are all in the farms outside the city.
These things are tantamount to their lifeblood.
Gold and silver are fine and must be retrieved, and food and other materials are also essential for survival.
No matter what the reason was, they just wanted to leave the city and bring back as much of the things in Zhuangzi as possible.
The people in Beicheng were strict about it, and it was hard for everyone there to save their lives when leaving the city, so the powerful people set their sights on Nancheng.
Anyway, the untouchables here are disobedient, so we just use them as a cover.
The guards rushed over quickly, and both the soldiers guarding the city at Yongding Gate and the government officials who were about to leave the city were all stunned on the spot.
"Close the city gate, close the city gate!" Fang Sheng shouted loudly.
But no one moved at the scene because they had not yet guessed the identities of Zhao Yanxun and his party. After all, not everyone had met everyone in the palace.
Seeing that these people did not move, Fang Sheng was very angry. He just heard him angrily yell: "Your Majesty, here... why don't you guys come and see me?"
Well, since his status as a prince is good, everyone bowed down and saluted.
Under Fang Sheng's command, the soldiers guarding the city gate slowly closed the city gate.
The officials in each government are very worried at the moment. What they are doing now is shameful. Who would have thought that someone would actually pursue it.
Under the gaze of everyone, Zhao Yanxun rode a tall horse and slowly walked towards the city gate.
Although he didn't say a word, he put great pressure on everyone, and the feeling of uneasiness in their hearts became stronger and stronger.
When the horse's hooves stopped in front of everyone, Zhao Yanxun said coldly: "Who is responsible for guarding Yongding Gate?"
Fu Qianhu, who was sleeping on the gate tower, was also woken up by the guards at this moment, so he quickly ran down from the gate tower with his helmet.
"See you, Your Majesty, I have been ordered to station here!"
After answering, Wang Cheng felt extremely panicked. He knew that if this matter was discovered now, he would not get any good results.
Money attracts people's hearts. A little benefit from these big families can be enough for Wang Cheng to earn for two or three years.
Kneeling on the ground, Wang Cheng watched the horse's hooves approaching slowly, and the tension in his heart rose to the extreme.
"There are so many military orders, what benefits have they given you? To make you disobey them?"
Hearing this, Wang Cheng raised his head and said: "Your Majesty, I... I..."
For a moment, Wang Cheng didn't know what to say, but the next moment Zhao Yanxun's face came over.
Two bangs... Two bloody grooves appeared on Wang Cheng's face, and he covered his face and let out two screams.
Zhao Yanxun scolded: "The city is closed under martial law, do you think it's a joke?"
Wang Cheng tried hard to hold back the pain, fearing that he would scream and be whipped twice.
"Do you know what is outside the city? You are driving a carriage out at this time. Are you looking for death?"
"Even if you want to die, then you will die outside and then drive the carriage back... Do you want to kill everyone in this city?"
Zhao Yanxun said these words to the stewards and servants of each house, and the latter were too frightened to answer at this moment.
"Detain all of them and deal with them according to the court's laws!" Zhao Yanxun said in a deep voice.
The closure of the city and martial law was originally a military order. If we followed wartime principles, we could directly behead these people.
At this moment, Zhao Yanxun had murderous intentions. He understood more and more that he couldn't be too polite with these powerful people.
The blood of He Zhengyang's family only made them believe that there were zombie mutations, but it did not make them realize the seriousness of the matter.
If you try to reason with them, since they don't take it seriously, you can only speak with a knife.
At this moment, Wang Cheng himself did not say a word. Now that he was a clay Buddha crossing the river and unable to save himself, how could he dare to speak for the people of other provinces?
"Your Majesty, we...we are also following orders!" A steward shouted.
Zhao Yanxun seemed as if he hadn't heard anything. No matter how much these people said, it was useless. They were killing chickens to scare monkeys...who said they were chickens and not monkeys!
Seeing this, someone immediately shouted loudly: "Run... run back and tell the master, maybe he can save us!"
Everyone immediately fled in all directions, and without Zhao Yanxun's further instructions, the guards took the people away as quickly as possible.
But after all, there were too many people. The total number of government officials and servants exceeded more than fifty, but there were only twenty guards.
But even if someone escaped, Zhao Yanxun showed no concern.
Kill the chicken to scare the monkeys. When killing the chicken, there must be monkeys watching. These people went back to spread the word, but it saved Zhao Yanxun a lot of work.
"Your Highness... there are still seven or eight people who escaped!" Fang Sheng said with some fear.
Zhao Yanxun was so majestic that, except for the three princesses of the palace, everyone in the palace was extremely cautious when facing him.
"It doesn't matter, just run away!" Zhao Yanxun said calmly.
Then he glanced at Wang Cheng and said slowly: "Why don't you run?"
It was a matter of life and death. Wang Cheng did not dare to reply casually. After thinking about it, he replied cautiously: "I am guilty... I am willing to listen to the prince's disposal!"
"You are guilty and should be punished... But now, I want you to do something!" Zhao Yanxun said in a deep voice.
Let yourself do things? That means it's not the worst outcome, and Wang Cheng was immediately overjoyed.
So he quickly replied: "Please give me your Majesty's orders, and I will not give up even if I die!"
"Have your men take all the servants and slaves in charge of each government into custody!" Zhao Yanxun said in a deep voice.
Asking his own men to detain people? To be honest, this job is a bit hot, but at this moment Wang Cheng doesn't care so much anymore.
"As you command!"
Then he turned his head and yelled at the soldiers around him: "You are all deaf, why don't you hurry up and arrest these bastards!"
Under Wang Cheng's order, the soldiers stationed at Yongding Gate immediately took action and soon took over the "human prisoners" from the guards.
"My lord, how should we deal with these bastards?" Wang Cheng walked up to Zhao Yanxun's horse and said with a flattering look on his face.
"Tie them up first and make them kneel in front of the city gate!" Zhao Yanxun said in a deep voice.
Unable to figure out what Zhao Yanxun was thinking, Wang Cheng could only speculate in his heart, but he was not idle at all and immediately turned around to deliver the order.
But Zhao Yanxun got off his horse at this moment, walked along the steps inside Yongding Gate, and walked towards the city wall step by step.
After handing the "prisoner" to Wang Cheng, Fang Sheng immediately followed him with his guards, and then they came to the city wall.
Standing at a high place, the view is extremely broad.
Looking at the mountains in the distance and feeling the majesty of the city wall, the depressing mood was relieved a lot.
Seeing that Zhao Yanxun was in a much better mood, Fang Shengcai boldly asked: "Your Majesty, how should we deal with those people below?"
"Kill one to serve as a warning to others, what do you think we should do?" Zhao Yanxun said calmly.
These words happened to be heard by Wang Cheng who was walking up the city wall, which made him break into a cold sweat again, which meant that he was almost killed by the prince.
Fang Sheng then asked: "Your Majesty, when will we take action?"
"Don't worry, we'll wait until the theatergoers arrive!" Zhao Yanxun said with a slight smile.
