Chapter 949: Confession
The flurry of swords, howls, screams, and noises in the Yang Mansion lasted for more than two hours. It could be said that Wu Yi spent the entire morning in the Yang Mansion.
The actual fighting didn't take long. After the body's muscles and marrow were washed, it wasn't a big problem to kill a few servants who hadn't gone through battle formations.
What really wastes time is that the Yang Mansion is too big, and too much time is spent on eliminating future troubles.
The Yang Mansion was defeated, but the problem was not completely solved. The Yang Mansion was deeply rooted, and its power was no longer limited to Chenliu County. With hundreds of years of heritage, not to mention the Yangmin Mansion, even in the North County, there were many of their Therefore, old relatives and relatives can seize the opportunity for them and they can make a comeback.
In the afternoon, Wu Yi's main task was to completely ruin the reputation of the Yang family and put the evil gentry's reputation on their heads.
Wu Yi did not spare any of the large households who were close to the Yang family and traded with the county magistrate. He destroyed them all. He had to say cruelly, because to deal with this group of people, Wu Yi could use both suppression and appeasement. Use this method.
But when negotiating with them to ask them to provide food to tide over the crisis, these big households did not give them any leeway. The destruction of the Yang family did not change the minds of these people, and they still looked to the city for assistance.
In this case, Wu Yi was too lazy to show mercy and killed the big households to distribute the food. The situation in Chenliu County was further stabilized and the life safety of the residents in the city was guaranteed.
At this moment, the civil uprising in Chenliu County has come to an end. This day is the eleventh day of this chaos.
At night, there are stars, but the moon is not particularly bright and is obscured by black clouds from time to time.
Wu Yi and Shen Cong were standing in mid-air, looking down at Chenliu County where black smoke rose from time to time. It was the remnants of the fire that had not burned out.
Shen Congyue turned his eyes to Wu Yi from time to time, wanting to ask something, but after hesitating several times, he failed to ask.
Wu Yi knew what she wanted to ask. He was highly cultivated and could clearly look down on everything from behind, so why did he go into battle in person and get stained with blood, just for a moment of loyalty?
"I'm not as powerful as you think. In Chenliu County, I can be the chess player behind the scenes, but once the army invades the territory, I am also a chess piece!"
Next, he cannot think with the mind of a chess player, but must transform into the mind of a chess piece. Naturally, Wu Yi can also choose to run away, get rid of his clothes when the matter is over, hide his achievements and fame, and just miss a great opportunity. , Wu Yi was a little unwilling.
After hearing what Wu Yi said, Shen Congyue frowned, nodded in understanding, and asked, "What are you going to do next?"
Due to the timely handling of the civil uprising in Chenliu County, no further riots occurred and the city suffered little damage. However, at this moment, the number of people in the county is less than half of the original number. Many people have gone to the countryside, hoping to escape the ensuing chaos. .
The chaos that followed was naturally caused by the troops sent by Fucheng. In the name of suppressing bandits, they used swords and soldiers to fight like bandits. In fact, these were organized bandits, and the destruction of order would only become more serious.
The arrogance and arrogance of large households that were originally suppressed will rebound and counterattack.
If you want to avoid this result, tonight may be the last chance. Shen Congyue understands this, and Wu Yi naturally understands this too.
Shen Congyue didn't know much after all. At this moment, he could only turn to Wu Yi for help, but couldn't think of any solution. Resisting forcefully is not the answer, as you will only suffer a greater blow. As for begging for mercy, you have to ask the other party to give you this opportunity.
"Go to Fucheng!" Wu Yi responded as he looked into the distance.
"If you go to Fucheng, aren't you throwing yourself into a trap?" Shen Congyue said in surprise.
"If you want to get out of today's predicament, you can only go to Fucheng!"
"When will we leave?"
"Now!" Wu Yi looked at the fast horses prepared underneath, his words were calm and without any disturbance, as if he was just going for a spring outing.
Wu Yi didn't know if his body would be affected by the dragon energy if the body he was living in was killed, but the impact would definitely be there, and he had to think higher.
"Take care!" Shen Congyue bowed his hands and said in salute. At this moment, in Shen Congyue's heart, Wu Yi's body suddenly grew taller.
"On the way to Fucheng, I will stay away from the troops coming to support me. If I encounter this group of people, just maintain order and don't conflict with these murderous people. If they ask for military expenses and food, don't give up on them. It’s not impossible.”
Before leaving, Wu Yi told him that the most important thing at the moment was not to conflict with the army at this moment, otherwise it would really become a rebellion. If he was operating well at this moment, he could minimize the matter and preserve the overall situation.
Shen Congyue nodded in agreement.
Wu Yi sighed slightly. Even if he were a child, it would be a serious crime to kill an official. He was afraid that he would have to go to jail during this trip.
Eliminating distracting thoughts, Wu Yi landed, as if appearing from nowhere, startling the others.
This time he went to Fucheng to plead guilty to the crime. One person was not convincing at all, so Wu Yi brought forty or fifty people. There were no children from wealthy families, half of them were from the middle class, and the other half were Shen Congyue's followers.
It's not that Wu Yi doesn't want to bring more people with him. At this moment, the horses that can be found in Chenliu County are just the ones in front of him. Without the blessing of fast horses, by the time he arrives in Fucheng, the day lilies are cold.
Turning on his horse, Wu Yi took the riding whip and whipped it through the air, leaving a shrill sound in the air. He also led the way towards Fucheng.
It is destined to be a sleepless night, and it is destined to be a frightening night.
Carrying the thorns and asking for forgiveness, different people have different focuses. Some people see the two words "asking for forgiveness" at the end, but Wu Yi's focus at this moment is on the first two words.
Carrying the thorns is for outsiders to see, to stir up public opinion and to uphold justice. As for asking for forgiveness, it is more like a show. It is not asking for forgiveness, but to force the governor to exempt the people who caused the riot in Chenliu County from the charges.
This time, when he went to the capital city as Chen Yan, Wu Yi did not even carry the token that contained his magic power. He was just a mortal with good physical strength. If he was trapped, he would have no way out.
Wu Yi had cut off his retreat, which was very bold. Since he was in the Humane Dynasty, he had to use humane means and gradually forget his immortal identity. His magic power could be used as a trump card, but it could not be the only means.
Following Wu Yi to the capital city, he had to survive a narrow escape. The people present also understood this, so the atmosphere was serious and tense. There was no talk all night, only the sound of horses neighing.
At dawn, by chance, I saw a thousand-man army, neatly dressed, tall and strong, with great military power. I didn't need to think too much, it must be reinforcements from the capital.
Fortunately, Wu Yi chose a small path instead of a big road. Although he had to dismount and walk from time to time, it was hidden. At this moment, the two sides were well separated and there was no head-on confrontation.
