The Kingdom of Marriage: My Stunning Empress

Chapter 227: Seeking Beauty Under the Moon, the Fragrance Comes Naturally

Han Zhuo had just finished speaking when suddenly a loud crash was heard from inside the restaurant inside the wall.

There was a loud "bang" and a man was knocked out of the window.

Then there was a loud and noisy sound.

Han Zhuo and Su Qingge stood still in the alley. Through the wall, they heard a group of lawless bandits fighting inside the wall.

Although they were all secretly funded and trained by the Li family, they had only heard of each other's existence and rarely had any contact with each other.

On weekdays, these bandits are all kings in their own hilltops.

The way he speaks and acts is not only rude, but also unscrupulous.

Now with the influence of alcohol, they started fighting after just a few words.

Even through the wall, you can hear the "ping pong" sound of their fighting.

Immediately afterwards, hurried footsteps were heard from the south.

I only saw a few yamen runners holding lanterns and hurriedly entering the restaurant.

Han Zhuo and Su Qingge, one tall and one short, looked at each other and smiled. Then, they took a deep breath, performed their lightness skills again, and landed back to their original positions.

Su Qingge quietly lifted up two tiles.

I saw a group of bandit leaders fighting happily inside. Several yamen runners quickly came to Huang Shiren and said to him.

"My Lord, something bad has happened! A group of Qingfeng Mountain bandits have ignored the ban and are burning, killing, and looting in the south!"

When most people heard this, they would definitely seek help from the bandit leaders on the scene, asking them to manage their own subordinates and evacuate the people from the county.

However, when Huang Shiren heard that the people under his rule were being burned, killed and looted by bandits, he just waved his hand indifferently.

He said, "Oh, it's just a few dozen people who died."

"Those Qingfeng Mountain bandits have always been vicious. They've been waiting outside the county town for two days, and Han Erlang hasn't shown up yet. We have to kill some of them and release them."

"Anyway, it doesn't matter if a few hundred of those untouchables in the south die."

"I've always felt that the south side is a bit crowded, but with so many people dying, a lot of houses will be freed up."

"After some time, we can go to the capital and bring some refugees here to fill the vacancies. Then, we can treat them like cattle and horses. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"

When Huang Shiren uttered these outrageous words, the wealthy businessmen and gentry of Liyang County nearby praised him enthusiastically, and flattered him one after another.

The leading yamen runner obviously still had some humanity in him.

His face looked a little ugly at the moment, and he was suppressing his inner anger. He pleaded to Huang Shiren in a slightly low voice.

"Master, no matter what, they are all your people."

"These bandits from Qingfeng Village are extremely ruthless and are even setting fire to houses."

"If the house burns to ashes, it will be troublesome, so please come out and take care of it."

Huang Shiren had obviously drunk a lot of wine at this time, and there was also a coquettish prostitute sitting next to him.

He was enjoying himself, so how could he have the mood to care about these things?

At that moment, he was a little annoyed by being disturbed by the yamen runner, so he slammed the table with his hand and cursed at the yamen runner.

"You may be deaf, but you're not blind yet. Can't you see I'm busy right now? Get out of here!"

A relatively young yamen runner behind this yamen runner wanted to step forward and say a few words, but the old yamen runner grabbed his sleeve.

The old yamen runner shook his head at the young yamen runners, and finally the few of them could only lower their heads and pass through a group of bandits.

After they left the restaurant, they started cursing at the entrance of the alley: "Damn it, what kind of world is this!"

"Is there any place in the world more absurd than our Liyang County?!"

"A dignified county magistrate actually entertained bandits in a restaurant and allowed these bastards to wantonly murder the people in the county!"

"Brother, I can't stand it anymore. Let's call Brother Qi and go to the south to rescue people!"

The old yamen runner stood there with a serious expression. He sighed and said, "But we have too few people."

"The bandits in Qingfeng Village are very fierce. If we go up there, let alone saving people, I'm afraid we won't be able to save our own lives."

The young yamen runner beside him roared angrily, "But we can't just sit there and watch these beasts kill people wantonly in the county!"

"In that case, what's the difference between us and accomplices?!"

At this moment, a deep and rich voice suddenly came from the deep alley: "Do you need help?"

Several people quickly turned their heads, drew their steel knives from their waists, and pointed them at the dark alley.

Soon, Han Zhuo walked out of the alley step by step.

"Stop!" the old yamen runner shouted, then asked Han Zhuo, "Who are you?"

"The path is uneven, so draw your sword and help me. I'm just a traveler who happened to be passing through here."

"Just like what the young man just said, I've been to many places, but this is the first time I've seen a scene like your Liyang County."

"A dignified county magistrate sat at a table with a bunch of bandits, drinking and chatting happily, calling each other brothers."

"They even condoned these bandits to slaughter civilians. This kind of spectacle is truly rare!"

The old yamen runner snorted coldly at this time and said, "Since you are just a passerby, then leave here quickly."

"Some things are beyond your control."

Han Zhuo said, "What if I insist on intervening?"

After saying that, Han Zhuo pulled out a steel knife from his waist. At that moment, several yamen runners became nervous.

However, they found that Han Zhuo did not point the steel knife at them, but quickly jumped to the top of the wall and then lightly jumped onto the roof of someone's house.

At this moment, there was a full moon hanging in the sky above his head, which made Han Zhuo's figure look particularly tall.

Han Zhuo smiled and said, "You are yamen runners, but you watched someone die without helping. Since no one in Liyang County cares about the lives of the people, then I, a passerby, will take care of this trivial matter."

After saying that, Han Zhuo turned around and ran towards the south.

Seeing this, the old yamen runner said quickly: "Not good, hurry up and follow him!"

Several yamen runners ran quickly, and Han Zhuo used his Qinggong skills to quickly jump over the roof.

Han Zhuo originally wanted to wait for the yamen runners to catch up, but after jumping onto the roof, he found that above the densely populated residential area in the south, which was originally pitch black, flames were already shooting up into the sky!

At the same time, from a distance, Han Zhuo could still hear the screams of those poor people being slaughtered.

At this moment, Han Zhuo felt a surge of anger rushing to his head.

He tightened his grip on the steel knife and stepped hard, creating a hole in the beam of the house.

Han Zhuo flew in a straight line towards the south!

"Hahahaha, quickly pry open this family's door!"

When Han Zhuo rushed to the south, he saw more than twenty strong men dressed as servants, holding spears and steel knives in their hands, kicking open the door of a house.

Then they dragged two elderly people, a woman and three children out of the house.

At this time, there was a young man dressed in brocade clothes. He was holding a knife and his body was stained with blood.

He was like a devil from hell, with a hideous and terrifying smile on his face, walking step by step towards the three children huddled in their mother's arms.

The mother seemed to know the young man. She knelt on all fours in front of him and kowtowed continuously.

"Mr. Liang, please, please, let us go!"

The young man surnamed Liang laughed wildly: "Hahaha, this young master has always wanted to kill people to cheer himself up. How can I let go of such a good opportunity tonight?"

"On my way here, I killed a lot of people, but I haven't killed a child yet."

"Go away! When I swing my sword, it's incredibly powerful!"

"Don't accidentally let your child's blood splash on you, hahaha!"

As he said that, Master Liang kicked the woman away, raised the steel knife high with both hands, and chopped it down fiercely at the little girl in front of him who looked only three or four years old!

In an instant!

Two black shadows, one on the left and one on the right, rushed towards the direction where Young Master Liang was!

"clang!"

A delicate figure flew over, and swords collided in the night, sparks flying!

"boom!"

Han Zhuo suddenly appeared and kicked Master Liang hard from the side, sending him flying!

Han Zhuo's kick was very heavy. Young Master Liang was spinning and rolling in the air, and he heavily knocked down half of the wall not far away.

"Master! Master!"

The dozen or so vicious slaves nearby gnashed their teeth and looked ferocious when they saw their master being beaten.

They brandished their machetes and rushed towards Han Zhuo, howling.

Han Zhuo was holding a steel knife and was about to attack when he suddenly felt a faint fragrance coming from his side.

Immediately afterwards, a beautiful figure flew past him.
