"Stop pretending to be stupid! You are the one who kept the treasure for yourself!"
"Hurry up, hand over the treasure! Hand over the treasure!"
"I think she simply deceived us. We don't need to count on such a selfish person! Come on, let's smash her to death, smash her to death!"
"Yes, smash her to death, smash her to death!"
After the people said angrily, they threw the vegetable leaves and soil in their hands at Yun Ruoyue.
Now, Yun Ruoyue has become the target of public criticism.
"Everyone, please calm down, please stop, I really didn't steal the treasure..." Yun Ruoyue quickly raised her hand to block it, and kept explaining to everyone.
But these people were like crazy, and they didn't listen to her explanation at all.
They were filled with hatred and directed all the anger in their hearts at her.
"Stop!" At this critical moment, a black shadow quickly flashed out of the side hall.
As soon as he flashed out, the sword in his hand flew slowly, and chopped the vegetable leaves that were thrown at him to the ground in a few strokes.
Then, he protected Yun Ruoyue and raised the sword in his hand coldly.
Under the sunlight, a bloodthirsty cold light reflected off the sword, which scared everyone and took a few steps back.
"It's the high priest, the high priest is here!" When everyone saw Long Qianche, their faces were full of fear.
"That's enough!" As soon as Long Qianche stood in front of Yun Ruoyue, he looked at everyone sternly, "We didn't see the treasure, are you anxious? We didn't get what you wanted, and we didn't satisfy your desires.
Use a woman to vent your anger? Use her to vent your dissatisfaction! Are you still men?"
After hearing this, everyone lowered their heads, feeling a little ashamed.
Those who were unconvinced boldly said: "High Priest, only the Saint can open the underground palace. Now that we have not seen the treasure, we can reasonably suspect that the Saint opened the underground palace in advance and stole the treasure."
Long Qianche sneered, "If this is the case, why would Her Majesty the Queen and the Imperial Master invite you to be witnesses?"
"Yes, if I really stole the treasure, why didn't I just run away with the treasure and come to face your doubts?" Yun Ruoyue said coldly.
After everyone heard this, their minds gradually cleared up, and their rationality slowly returned.
Someone said: "That's right. If there is really something fishy in this, the Queen and the Imperial Master would not dare to let us see it."
"The saint is right. If she really stole the treasure, she would have left long ago. Why bother to explain to us here?"
"Looking at her like this, she doesn't look like the kind of person who is obsessed with profit."
Long Qianche said: "Everyone, the Saint's mission is to help us open the underground palace. Her mission has been completed. As for what is in the underground palace, it has nothing to do with her. You should not impose mistakes on her, let alone a weak person.
Women should bear the consequences."
When everyone heard this, they scratched their heads and said, "If we don't blame the saint, then who should we blame?"
Someone suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said angrily: "I know! Maybe this underground palace is fake from beginning to end, and was used by our ancestors to deceive us!"
"Yes! In order to maintain the stability of the country, our ancestors must have deliberately told the people that if they opened the underground palace in a hundred years, they would find treasures and improve people's lives. However, there were no treasures in the underground palace at all."
"Yes, they want to control us and contain us. They give us hope, so that we will be willing to be poor and work hard. But they can live a good life, but we ordinary people can only live a miserable life."
"So this is a scam. There are no treasures in this underground palace at all. This is fake and is used to deceive people."
"Let's go to the streets immediately and tell other people about this. We want everyone to know that this underground palace is a scam and we have all been deceived!"
As the people said this, they ran down the mountain one after another and towards Lingcheng Street.
Seeing such a result, Long Qianche and Yun Ruoyue were very helpless.
They didn't know how to stop these people or how to explain to them.
"Okay, Ruoyue, let's go back home first!" Long Qianche said, frowning in discomfort.
Yun Ruoyue looked down and saw a trace of blood soaked in the gauze on his leg.
She thought that he must have torn the wound on his leg just to save her.
She hurriedly said: "Your wound is bleeding again. Come on, I will bandage it for you again."
With that said, she helped Long Qianche walk into the side hall.
-
After Yun Ruoyue bandaged Long Qianche again, the two of them went down the mountain.
By the time their carriage arrived on the street, Yun Ruoyue had already heard many people talking.
"I didn't expect that all this was a scam. It was our ancestors who deceived us. They gave us hope and then let us down. They are so hateful!"
"Maybe the Queen also knows these things, and the Queen is also deceiving us!"
A sensible person immediately said: "No, I think the Queen is powerless. Don't you see it? Now the Queen is just the puppet of the National Master? The National Master has always been in charge of opening the underground palace, and the Queen only listens to his orders.
We must deceive when we act, it is also the National Master who is deceiving us!"
As soon as these words were said, other people nearby also suddenly realized.
Someone who was sober immediately said: "When the underground palace was opened, we were also in it. We saw with our own eyes that everything was led by the national master. The saint was retrieved by the national master, and the queen obeyed the master's words and did not dare to resist. At that time, everyone
They all praised the Imperial Master, saying that it was his credit for finding the Saint, and it was also his credit for opening the underground palace. Now that it has become like this, he should also bear the responsibility."
As soon as someone spoke up, others immediately woke up and said, "Yes! You see, the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion is magnificent and magnificent, comparable to a royal palace. The Imperial Preceptor is even more wealthy, powerful, arrogant and licentious. He is so rich, but we ordinary people are so rich."
Is it reasonable to eat glutinous rice bran?"
"It's unreasonable, not at all! The Imperial Master controls the government and has overwhelming power. He lives a good life but makes us live a miserable life. This is not reasonable at all!"
When Yun Ruoyue heard the people's discussions, a glimmer of hope finally ignited in her heart.
Mother is right, there are really sane people and sensible people in this world.
When a small group of people awaken, they will slowly lead others to awaken.
When a small number of correct and rational voices come out, they will slowly infect and influence other people, leading more people to start thinking, starting to object, and starting to raise questions.
Now there are these people who are beginning to question the National Master, and there are these people who believe in the Queen, even if their number is very small, just a bunch of tiny glimmers of light.
But Yun Ruoyue believed that over time, such glimmers of light would condense into a powerful and dazzling light.
When the time comes, justice will surely defeat evil, and the world will regain its clarity.
It's just that the people said this about the Imperial Master. Will Long Qianche be angry when he hears it?
Thinking of this, she quickly glanced at Long Qianche, only to find that Long Qianche was concentrating with his eyes closed. There was no expression on his face, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.
He is always so cold, indifferent and calm, as if nothing can affect him.
