The subordinate looked embarrassed and said: "However, my subordinates have found out that the refugees have been gathered in a village for protection. If we rush over to kill people, I am afraid that we will alert Prince Zhan. If this matter is exposed, your reputation will be tarnished." "

He knew very well that once this kind of killing of refugees was exposed, the emperor would definitely not admit it, and then the city gatekeepers would become the scapegoats.

He will also be poked in the spine and reviled by the world.

It’s not worth even thinking about it.

The city gatekeepers also felt that the emperor's actions were inappropriate. However, if the king asked the minister to die, the minister had to die.

What can he do?

The city gatekeeper rubbed his beard on his chin irritably and said, "The emperor has a decree to kill those refugees. What can I do?"

"Prince Zhan is also a dog-catcher, meddling in other people's business. He keeps the refugees in the city and settles them privately. He also gives them food and drinks and distributes money. People who don't know, think he is the emperor of Juxing Kingdom. No wonder the emperor is so jealous of him, regardless of his priorities, huh!"

The subordinate lowered his head: "..."

However, his subordinates also felt that Prince Zhan had done the right thing. It was already very difficult for those refugees to bring their families to the capital. It was simply unconscionable for the emperor not to provide relief, but to kill them all.

Of course, he didn't dare to say these words, he just complained secretly in his heart.

The city gate official continued: "Does Prince Zhan think that we can save those refugees in this way? He is simply naive."

When his subordinates heard this, they didn't think much about it. They thought that what the Lord meant was that sooner or later, he would kill those refugees according to the emperor's imperial decree. Prince Zhan could protect them for a while, but he could not protect them for a lifetime.

Unexpectedly, I heard the city gatekeeper say that the emperor had sent people to Taihe County to massacre the city.

When the subordinates heard this, they were shocked. How could the emperor do such a sinister thing as massacre of the city?

Isn't he afraid of being reviled by everyone in the world?

"My lord, I'm afraid it's inappropriate for the emperor to do this."

The city gatekeeper sighed. He was also very shocked when he heard the news. However, if he could do anything, the emperor would not listen to him even if he spoke softly. If he spoke too much, he might be angry and bring about genocide. Disaster, he said: "I also know that something is wrong, but what can I do? He is the king, and we are ministers. If the king wants the minister to die, the minister has to die."

That night, at midnight, hundreds of men in black, all wrapped up tightly with only a pair of eyes exposed, rode out of the city gate on fast horses and headed straight for the deserted village...

"Tap tap tap..." In the silent night, the sound of horse hooves spread far and wide.

Village entrance.

An Chi and his men were lying in ambush there. When they heard the sound of horse hooves, their spirits were lifted and they quickly reminded the iron cavalry...

"Come on, come on, everyone, cheer up. The prince has an order. No one is allowed to escape. We will wait until they enter the village before taking action."

"Yes."

After a stick of incense.

All the men in black walked into the village. Just when they took out their murder weapons and were about to kill the refugees, suddenly, many torches lit up around them, and a loud shout was heard...

"Bandits have entered the village. Everyone, get up quickly."

It's best to pretend to be stupid and say they are bandits, so that they can be beaten first and then interrogated slowly.

Since the refugees spent the night in the village on the first day, they were not separated individually. They all slept together in the open space. When they heard the shouts, they all got up in a daze. When they saw hundreds of men in black with murder weapons in their hands, they were frightened. Half dead.

Damn, they are almost starving to death, why are there still bandits targeting them?

"Ah ah ah, help, help, there are bandits." The refugees immediately went crazy, and the scene became a mess.

However, fortunately there were iron cavalry protecting them, so the men in black could not get close to them.

"Boy, if you are sensible, please don't hinder our work, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude." The cold-haired man in black threatened An Xi fiercely.

An Chi deliberately exposed the Dog Emperor's conspiracy in public and caused his character to collapse, so he deliberately guided Dao...

"After working for a long time, it turns out that you are not bandits? Since you are not bandits, why did you sneak in and kill the refugees in the middle of the night? They have no power to restrain them. What good will it do to you if you kill them?"

The leading man in black accidentally let something slip. At this moment, he felt extremely regretful and did not dare to speak easily. Worried that he would make too many mistakes, he directly ordered his men to kill all the refugees and retreat.

The refugees heard it very clearly and knew that this group of black people were coming for them, and they were frightened.

Who do they recruit? Who did you offend?

How to escape? Still being hunted?

Could it be that a few days ago, when they were cutting bark to eat, they accidentally cut someone else's tree to death?

Or maybe when digging up Guanyin soil to eat, you accidentally dug up someone else’s ground?

Other than that, they really couldn’t think of being chased, so what other reason was there?

Suddenly, they hugged each other in fear and trembled.

An Chi had already known from the princess that someone would attack tonight, so he had already prepared for it. How could they succeed so easily?

In less than an hour, hundreds of men in black were subdued by them.

An Chi's foot stepped hard on the face of the leading man in black, and asked coldly: "Tell me, who are you? Who sent you here?"

Of course, the leading man in black did not dare to say that the emperor sent them here, so he gritted his teeth and roared...

"A scholar can't be killed. If you dare to kill me, I won't be a hero if I blink an eye."

An Xiao laughed angrily and rubbed his feet even harder: "You, a person like you who kills people indiscriminately, have the nerve to say that you are a hero? Are you not afraid of others laughing at you?"

The leading man in black's face was deformed after being stepped on, and he couldn't say a word. He just stared at An Zhi with two eyes.

An Chi smiled contemptuously: "As long as you tell who is the mastermind behind this, I will let you go."

Unexpectedly, the leading man in black refused to kill him.

An Chi had already guessed this ending. As the emperor's loyal subordinate, the leading man in black could betray the emperor with just a few words from him?

Therefore, he must be ruthless.

So, he threatened the leading man in black, saying that as long as he revealed who was behind the scenes, all his men would be released.

Otherwise, they will be killed without mercy.

"Hmph." The leading black man snorted coldly, without saying a word and with great integrity.

His choice was obvious, that is, he refused to reveal the person behind the scenes.

An Chi smiled coldly. After following the prince for so many years, he had the best way to deal with such a tough guy.

He waved gently.

The head of a man in black instantly fell to the ground.

The scene fell silent for a moment.

It was like you could hear a pin drop.

The refugees were so frightened that they did not dare to raise their heads. Even so, they knew in their hearts that these men in black deserved to die because they were here to kill them.

Just when the cavalry guards killed the twenty-first man in black.

The leading man in black finally broke down emotionally. He really couldn't bear to watch his men who were once as close as brothers die in front of him one by one. He cried and roared...

"Don't kill, don't kill, please, don't kill, I say, I say, woo woo woo..."

An Chi smiled proudly, if he had known this, why did he do it in the first place? "Tell me, who sent you here to kill the refugees?"

Although he had long known that it was the Dog Emperor's handiwork, the refugees did not know that in order to expose the Dog Emperor's conspiracy, they had to tell it with their own mouths.

"Yes... it's the city gatekeeper." The leading man in black was timid and did not dare to reveal that the emperor was the mastermind behind the scenes, so he just mentioned the city gatekeeper.

They were caught by the people from Prince Zhan's Mansion, and sooner or later they would be found out to be from the city gatekeepers. There was no point in hiding it. It was better to tell them and save the lives of their men.

As for how to dump the pot at the back?

That's the gatekeeper's business and has nothing to do with him.

At this time, the refugees regained their composure and heard that the city gatekeeper had ordered them to be killed. They were so angry that they ran over one after another and beat the man in black who was controlled by the iron cavalry, cursing...

"Crazy dog ​​officer, we didn't do anything, we just fled. He didn't let us enter the city. Why did he kill us all?"
