Chapter 550: Chaos!
She lowered her head and saw that it was Ms. Xin who had shielded her and became her flesh padding.
“Cui’er, how could you… Are you all right?” Liu Sisi unconsciously asked, scrambling to check on Di Xuan who was lying next to her.
Di Xuan appeared to have passed out. Liu Sisi instinctively crawled towards him.
But suddenly, a large hand reached out from the side, aiming to grab at Liu Sisi’s back.
Ms. Xin’s face was full of pain. She slowly opened her eyes just in time to see this scene and let out a startled cry.
“Watch out!”
Before Liu Sisi could react, Ms. Xin suddenly pulled her and, with a swift motion, moved her to a different spot. Liu Sisi saw the world in front of her blur, and she found herself standing in a different place.
Ms. Xin’s movements were not slow at all, in a blink of an eye, she was already engaged in a fight with the person behind her.
When Liu Sisi turned around, she saw it was actually a constable attacking Ms. Xin; they fought fiercely for several rounds before they broke apart.
“Everyone back off!”
Liu Sisi quickly turned around to see that Di Xuan had been saved by Old Cheng, and the constable had already retreated to Xin Quan’s side.
“You actually dared to bite me…” Xin Quan’s face was ferocious.
He stepped forward, wanting to make Liu Sisi suffer. Unexpectedly, the civilians watching from the outside also started to riot!
“Lord Di is innocent, release Lord Di!”
“Even a child and pregnant woman are not spared, is this what a caring official should do? Brothers, these corrupt officials want to force us to our deaths!”
“Corrupt official! You make yourself rich through corruption, framing the innocent when exposed, you are the ones who should be beheaded!”
“Everyone don’t be afraid! We can’t reason with these corrupt officials, let’s fight these corrupt officials! Everyone, charge!”
“Everyone, charge…”
In an instant, countless civilians became more and more excited and rushed into the government office.
At this moment, no one needed to incite them, the angered civilians became more agitated and started to attack the constables around them. The shouts were everywhere!
Seeing the civilians starting to rebel, County Magistrate Su and Xin Quan panicked!
“Troublemakers! All of you troublemakers deserve to die!”
“Go! What are you standing around for? Hurry up and arrest people! Seize all these rebellious troublemakers!”
County Magistrate Su yelled out loud.
But he and Xin Quan exchanged a glance and quietly retreated.
“Yes, Your Honor!”
The constables were arresting people everywhere, and those who had previously helped to argue were captured on some vague charges! These constables were like a group of rabid dogs.
The crowd was in total chaos!
Everyone was screaming, running madly, and cries for help were echoing everywhere, people dispersed and fled in all directions.
However, more people turned around and started attacking the government office.
“Hurry, hurry up! Go forward, constables and officers! What are you doing? Hurry! Hurry up and close the door! Close the main gate…”
Seeing the situation getting out of control, the County Magistrate Su no longer cared about anything else, he quickly fled to the back hall.
Weary and running back to the back hall, both County Magistrate Su and Xin Quan showed panic on their faces!
Listening to the increasingly loud shouting from outside, County Magistrate Su could no longer restrain his anger.
“Bastard! That damn coroner dare to betray me? Get to the bottom of this immediately! What the hell is going on?” His words were clearly displaced anger.
“What the hell is going on? That was clearly Cailian, how did she end up being the businessman’s daughter! There’s definitely a catch here, go and investigate, hurry!”
“Yes!” The governmental office’s runners hurriedly backed out.
Once everyone exited, Xin Quan slammed his fist down on the table.
“Su, didn’t you say it was foolproof? Is this your idea of foolproof? A situation full of errors, you’re even confident enough to claim it?”
Although County Magistrate Su was also furious, he had no temperament in front of Xin Quan.
“Lord Xin! You saw what happened, too. I sacrificed my own niece to this mess, and I still don’t know how I’m going to explain it to my family! Stop making it worse!”
“Hmph! What do you mean by saying I’m causing trouble?”
Xin Quan stood up from his chair: “You’d better come up with a good plan. Didn’t you let Zhang Shixin make his move last time? How come he hasn’t come back yet, did something go wrong?”
“This… how could that be? Lord Xin, don’t scare yourself!”
County Magistrate Su’s smile was somewhat strained.
“Let’s hope so! It’s late, I’ll go home first and discuss the details later.”
After saying this, Xin Quan did not wait for County Magistrate Su to say anything more, throwing his sleeve over his shoulder, he promptly left the government office through the side door. He left in a flourish!
County Magistrate Su was in a panic, he had actually forgotten about the matter with Zhang Shixin! It seemed that it had been two days since the guy had left, why hadn’t he returned yet?
But just as Xin Quan said, there wouldn’t be another mishap on their end, right?
Looking at the suddenly closed door of the government office, the common people took out countless rotten eggs, vegetable leaves, and pickles, and started pelting the door!
That County Magistrate Su really had some nerve to stir up such a huge public outrage!
After a fierce battle, Liu Sisi managed to retreatment. Upon careful examination, it didn’t look like she had any serious problems.
Leading Di Xuan and Di Ying, they carefully retreated, which was easy thanks to Ms. Xin and Old Cheng’s protection and the spontaneous addition of countless reinforcements, allowing them to squeeze out of the crowd.
Among their group, some were young, others were pregnant, none of them were suitable for charge into battle.
“Miss, this County Magistrate Su has gone mad. It’s better to evacuate the county city as soon as possible, leaving us freer to act. Save Su County from resting, and then starting to deal with you!”
A man dressed as a farmer approached her and said in a low voice.
He was right, at the moment Xuan’er was still unconscious. She herself and Ms. Xin were pregnant and they were dragging two children. If they lingered, they would not only be useless but also become a burden to everyone.
“Very well! How is the situation over there?”
Liu Sisi swept around, this place had already turned into a mess.
“Our people have already intervened, miss, please rest assured.”
“That’s good. Tell our brothers, do not hesitate when the time comes to act, hit back hard for me. This County Magistrate Su deserves to die! Let’s go!” Liu Sisi heaved a sigh of relief.
Without any hesitation, she then pulled everyone onto the carriage and galloped towards the city gate.
Passing by people who were rushing back from the city gate and those who were fleeing the city in panic, their cries and shouts filled the air.
Several frightened people in the carriage were shivering. Liu Sisi tightly held Xuan’er in her arms. It wasn’t until they left the city gate that they could breathe a sigh of relief.
Only then did Liu Sisi find time to examine Di Xuan’s injuries carefully.
There were several purple-black finger marks on Di Xuan’s neck. As expected, Xin Quan was merciless when he struck.
