Don't panic, my mother and I are dressed as Houfu mother-in-law and daughter-in-law!

Chapter 137

There were more people coming from a distance, and the number continued to increase. The soldiers on the periphery were afraid of another life, so they only defended and did not attack, and they were all injured soon.

The protective circle around the carriage was getting smaller and smaller, Xue Lan grabbed Xue Aokun with all his strength and roared: "It's already at this point, why don't you still say it? Come on, who sent them here?"

Xue Aokun smiled miserably: "Don't you find it strange that the guards in the city didn't even take a look?"

"You mean?"

Xue Lan had a faint guess in his heart, Xue Aokun didn't speak, but pointed to the sky with his right index finger.

With the dagger in her hand hanging down, she shook her head puzzled: "I don't understand why Song Lian has been loyal to the emperor and patriotic all his life, and even died for the country in the end, why is it still inevitable to be jealous?"

Gu Qingyou saw it clearly, and also understood Xue Aokun's meaning, heaven, son of heaven? !

It can be said that the current emperor has taken great pains. It has only been a few days since the palace plan failed, but he can't wait to use a new trick to kill people with a borrowed knife.

But since he made up his mind to eradicate the Duke's Mansion, no matter how disobedient they were, they would not be able to contend with the imperial court.

Looking at the screaming crowd, Xue Lan suddenly felt powerless, and slowly let go of Xue Aokun's hand, silently smiled bitterly: "So that's the case, but I still can't figure it out, why is Song Lian worthy of his suspicion?"

Now that she has figured it out, Xue Aokun has nothing to hide. With his frozen arms, he simply sat on the shaft of the car and said in a voice that only Xue Lan could hear: "Mr. Song borrowed tens of millions for the military camp. It was out of kindness However, in the eyes of others, you are using your position to recruit private soldiers, so what if you were in that position?"

"It's ridiculous. Hengye said that the expenditures of those silver pens are fully detailed in the army. The emperor...he sent someone to find out, and now Song Lian is dead, and Hengye has also been deprived of military power by him. What else is there to worry about?"

"The hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in the Northwest Camp were all brought out by Mr. Song himself over the years. Even if he passed away, the little General Song he trained with his own hands still has an influence that cannot be underestimated. Given time, how can we know that it will not be the same?" Will it be another Song Lian?"

Although he had never met Song Lian, at this moment, Xue Lan felt sorry for him from the bottom of his heart.

He defended his family and country all his life as a soldier, but in the end he couldn't keep a small Duke's mansion.

"Is it necessary to kill us all so that that person can sit back and relax?"

Xue Aokun shook his head: "It's not impossible to kill them all, but Song Lian had a high prestige during his lifetime. If he wants to attack the Duke's Mansion, he will inevitably be criticized by others, so the best way is to let your reputation accumulated over a hundred years collapse."

Xue Lan couldn't help being surprised, and re-examined the people around him. It's a pity or a blessing that this person can see things so clearly, but only ranks second.

"So you came here today because someone threatened you with Lin'er's life?"

"...The palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh, but no matter what, I can't let the Xue family die in my hands."

Xue Aokun turned his head to look at the Xue family, but he didn't see the face of a villain just now, only the sadness and helplessness of a family patriarch: "I don't expect my sister to forgive my selfishness, but I still want to be brazen. After all, there are scruples in the mansion, so in a short period of time, the Duke's mansion will suffer hardships, but it will not affect the fundamentals, and I ask my younger sister to take care of my brother's last words, and don't embarrass the Lin family."

Xue Lan nodded sadly: "Speaking of which, you have also been implicated by the Duke's Mansion. Don't worry, not only the Lin family, but if I have the ability, Lin'er will also take care of me. It's a pity..."

She looked around and saw that the government soldiers were retreating steadily, and Song Hengye was already standing on top of the carriage, personally blocking the rushing crowd.

Gu Qingyou was also holding the poker in his hand, and from time to time pushed back the people who approached the carriage, he was already out of breath.

"Unfortunately, I can't protect myself now, and I don't know how to end this mess."

As soon as the words fell, there were bursts of horseshoes at the entrance of the alley. Even though the scene was noisy, the sound still hit everyone's ears.

Xue Lan's heart sank completely. Could it be that the emperor wants to take this opportunity to completely eradicate the Duke's Mansion?
It's fine for her to die, the world is ups and downs, she has gone through all kinds of experiences, but Yoyo managed to live her whole life again, and she didn't live a stable day, and she was about to die again, she was not reconciled!

The sound of horseshoes was approaching, they surrounded the alley from both ends, and surrounded the crowd including the creditors.

The two groups of people who were fighting didn't know whether the person who came was an enemy or a friend, so they didn't dare to act rashly anymore, they actually divided into two camps with a tacit understanding, and they all looked at the person who came.

The leader was dressed in a red riding uniform, and brandishing a whip in his hand, knocked down the creditors blocking the road one by one, and went straight to the carriage where Xue Lan and the others were.

Her eyes lightly slid over Song Hengye, and she cupped her fists at Xue Lan and said, "Mrs. Song, please stay safe."

Hearing that the other party looked more like a friend than an enemy, Song Hengye's hand gesture behind him turned sharply, and the shadow on the high wall in the distance disappeared like a tide, as if nothing had happened.

"Princess? Why are you here?"

Gu Qingyou could no longer swing the poker, and the nerves that were tense when he heard a large number of people rushing over, relaxed when he saw Changle.

Chang Le was riding a tall horse, looking at her at eye level, and said: "My princess is walking around, and I heard someone fighting in the alley, so I came over to have a look."

Gu Qingyou looked at the cavalry behind her, and the corner of her mouth twitched, who would bring hundreds of strong men with them when they went out for a walk?
You don't have to bring so many people with you in a group fight, do you?

Changle's face remained unchanged, he looked at the soldiers who were injured, and then raised his eyebrows to look at the creditors: "You are the ones making trouble? Come here, and arrest them all for interrogation!"

The well-known Princess Changle has always been known throughout the capital as a manly and violent person, and everyone present knew him well.

The moment they saw the female devil, everyone knew something was wrong, and when they heard her open her mouth, they were offended, and they dared not speak out.

The two corpses on the ground hadn't cooled completely yet, but she opened her eyes and spoke nonsense, obviously she came here specially to rescue the Duke's mansion.

It wasn't until the soldiers she brought took orders and really started to arrest people that someone dared to say: "The princess is so unreasonable. It is clear that the Duke's government did not pay back the debts and killed innocent people indiscriminately. We asked for our own hard-earned money. What's wrong?"

What's more, even if they were wrong, they should be questioned by the people of the government office. Princess Changle relied on the power of his father King Qin to arrest people casually, which is really lawless.

Seeing their obviously unconvinced expressions, Chang Le tapped his horsewhip in his palm: "This is the residence of the courtiers. If you have something to do, you don't sit down to discuss it carefully, but gather a crowd to make trouble. The princess sees injustice, so I just want to take care of it."

The man said: "You are clearly protecting each other from officials!"

Chang Le spread his hands together: "Otherwise? If an official doesn't protect an official, why should he protect you, a troublemaker?"
