After rebirth, I became a national teacher

After learning of her identity and witnessing her mysterious appearance, Li Gengyuan became even more afraid of her.

But he still insisted:

"So you are the traitorous demon Du'e! Release your arrows and shoot her to death!"

Hundreds of soldiers shot arrows at the same time.

However, the woman in white just raised her hand and waved, and a gust of wind blew all the arrows to the ground.

"Release again!" Li Gengyuan ordered again.

Hundreds of arrows attacked again, she raised her hand and waved, and all the arrows were blown away again.

Within two meters, the ground was littered with scattered arrows.

Once is a coincidence, twice it must be the other party's trick.

Not only the archers, but even the cavalrymen behind them couldn't help but feel fear.

He could appear out of thin air so miraculously and create a strong wind with his bare hands. Is he really a human?

By the way, the imperial court said she was a demon!

Just as I was thinking this, the evil demon in white, who looked spotless and exuded an ethereal aura, spoke again.

"Li Gengyuan, you are looking for death."

The voice was still cold and indifferent, without even a hint of anger.

However, as soon as she finished speaking, she raised her hand and grabbed in their direction.

Li Gengyuan, who was originally guarded in the center of the garrison soldiers and would not be hurt in any case, flew up into the air as if he was sucked by something, and then fell into the mud in front of the evil demon.

"Ah!"

Li Gengyuan was so frightened that he screamed loudly.

"Someone! Come and save me!"

He was almost frightened crazy by this sudden change, and he got up and ran towards the soldiers.

However, he had only taken a few steps when a vine shot out from behind him and tied him up tightly from the hands to the waist in the blink of an eye, as if it had its own consciousness.

The evil demon Du'e chuckled:

"Oh, whoever I want to kill, no one can escape."

After she finished speaking, she raised her hand and lifted the once high-ranking Minister of War into the air, and pronounced:

"Li Gengyuan, the Minister of War in the Southern Capital, not only did you withhold military pay and accept bribes, you also forced the soldiers in the camp to share the cost of buying the cloth woven by your oppressed tenants, causing many soldiers and civilians to work hard all day but go hungry!"

"Every penny and every property of your Li family was sucked out of the blood of countless ordinary people, soldiers and merchants!"

"You are guilty of heinous crimes, you deserve to be cut into pieces!"

Among the soldiers, three thousand commanders and several centurions looked at Li Gengyuan nervously:

"grown ups!"

"Master Li!"

They subconsciously wanted to rush forward to save people and show their loyalty, but seeing the magical methods of the evil demon in white, they did not dare to move forward.

"Come here, my five hundred men, go and rescue Lord Li immediately!"

They gave orders to their soldiers.

However, none of the soldiers who had been obedient in the past stepped forward at this time.

Because everyone knows that the abbot of Cihang Temple, who is called the evil demon, is telling the truth.

These soldiers were recruited with the purpose of sacrificing themselves so that the whole family could have enough food and clothing.

But in the end, the military pay they received was only 40% of what was originally promised.

Even so, we were still tasked with purchasing the homespun cloth distributed by our superiors.

The quality of those cloths was much worse than those sold in shops outside, but the price was 10% to 20% higher, so you had to buy them.

This made their already difficult lives even worse.

According to some colleagues who rented land from the Li family, the Li family not only charged 70% of the rent, but also added new rental conditions:

In their spare time, every family had to hand in two pieces of cloth every month, and the purchase price was only 70% of the normal purchase price, which was almost equivalent to working for free.

During the slack season, women and children would weave cloth at home to supplement the family income, which was a rare way for the lower-class people in the Jiangnan region to increase their income.

The Li family's action took away all of their meager income.

Without this money, I don’t know how many families will suffer from hunger and cold, or even starve to death or freeze to death this winter.
