Ling Xiyue was dressed in simple white clothes, with a bare face, and her beautiful face was as cold as ice.
"Capture this unruly citizen to my general!" Xue Long waved his hand and gave the order.
Qi Tianba became even more proud when he heard this, his fat face full of smiles.
This little girl is so short-sighted that she even dares to offend him. She really doesn't know how to live or die.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he thought of this, Qi Tianba's hands were seized by several Shenyu troops and held there. He was confused and his face changed drastically, "Master, did you make a mistake?"
He wailed, "It's not the little one who's causing trouble, it's this little bitch."
Before he could finish his sentence, there was a muffled sound of "bump", and he felt a sudden pain in the back of his knee!
Qi Tianba responded "Ah" and screamed in pain. With his fat body, it was like killing a pig. He was kicked so hard by the Shenyu Army who was escorting him behind him that he fell to his knees, his mouth and eyes twisted in pain.
Slanted, face turned blue.
what happened?
Qi Tianba couldn't figure it out even if he thought about it.
Faced with the sudden reversal, the surrounding stallholders were also quite surprised.
After all, they are used to the officers and soldiers on this side colluding with the Qiu family. If they encountered this kind of situation in the past, they would definitely do what Qiu Tianba said without saying a word and not making any distinction at all.
Now, why is it the other way around?
"How dare you dare to be so presumptuous!" Xue Long shouted sharply at the shouting Qi Tianba, then quickly turned around and walked quickly to Ling Xiyue, knelt down on one knee, and put his hands together, "I see you, the Queen!"
The old man's stooped body behind Ling Xiyue trembled.
What did the general just say?
"The Queen?"
The surrounding stallholders looked at each other with shock beyond words.
Which other queen could it be? Naturally, it would be Ling Xiyue, the grandson of the Protector of the Country and Nantian, who is the queen of the current Emperor Yan!
"The common people pay their respects to the Queen!"
"My subordinates pay their respects to the Queen!"
This time, everyone around him knelt on the ground.
Ling Xiyue raised her hand to stop the old man who was kneeling next to her, helped him stand up, and at the same time raised his hand outward.
Qiu Tianba felt that the surroundings were noisy, countless bees were buzzing in his head, and his fat face was pale. He never thought that the person he had just teased on the street was the current queen.
This one sin alone is enough for him to die thousands of times!
"Queen?" The old man looked at the girl in front of him tremblingly.
Ling Xiyue only smiled faintly and let go of her hand.
"Empress, how should I deal with this guy?" Xue Long stood up.
This fat guy doesn't look like a good guy at first glance, but he's also unlucky to offend anyone, so why did he bump into the Queen?
Ling Xiyue walked out slowly, "Someone just said, where are the rules and laws here?"
Local snake?
Protection fees?
She has learned a lot today!
"Queen, please forgive me, it's a short-sighted villain who disturbed Your Majesty Feng Jia!" Qiu Tianba's smile was uglier than crying, and he begged for mercy again and again, "It's just a small ignorance, but please see that my family has always been peaceful and safe, and I will help you in the future.
For the sake of managing Yueya City well, Lord Sheriff, please spare me this time."
Their Qiu family's influence in Yueya City has been deep-rooted for hundreds of years. Even if she is the queen, how can she ignore it now that Tianlin has just captured Yueya City?
If you offend the Qiu family and make everyone unhappy, don't you worry that there will be trouble in the subsequent management? It will be different if you have their help, and you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.
This Qiu Tianba was obviously not stupid enough. Although he was begging for mercy, if you listen carefully, there was actually an element of threat in it, so-called soft and hard tactics.
"Behave yourself?" Ling Xiyue smiled meaningfully, "I have just seen how Master Qiu is beholden to himself."
This means that the Qiu family is not hostile to the imperial court, they are just plundering the people, and they can even get an extra share of the royal family's pie!
They are mutually beneficial and win-win, so why not?
"The Queen is kind and kind. I was still discussing with my father yesterday. Our Qiu family is willing to donate five hundred thousand taels of gold as military pay for free to help the Emperor and the Queen!" People had to lower their heads under the eaves, Qiu Tianba gritted his teeth.
He said this.xdw8
Qiu Tianba thought that the future would be long, and the wool comes from the sheep. Anyway, after the army left, he could collect more from these untouchables!
I have to say that despite gaining weight, this guy has also gained some brains and is more far-sighted.
"The Qiu family is indeed rich and powerful." Ling Xiyue admired sincerely.
When the people around the stalls heard this, they couldn't help but want to cry, as if they had anticipated their tragic situation in the future. After all, they had experienced too many such things before, and they did not dare to expect help from the court, let alone the new dynasty.
Qiu Tianba quickly laughed and breathed a sigh of relief. Sure enough, it was the same for every court in the world.
"Fifty thousand taels of gold?" Ling Xiyue's crimson lips raised little by little, "In such a bitter and cold place, no one has enough to eat, but Qiu's family has gold and silver. It is indeed capable, so why not take me to see it?"
Look, your Qiu family has many great undertakings!"
Qi Tianba's whole body suddenly stiffened, and then he realized something was wrong.
At this time, a group of cavalry passed by on patrol and heard the sound and came quickly.
"See the Queen."
The leader was Lieutenant General Wei, and nearly a hundred people knelt on the ground.
The people around were frightened by this momentum, and they became more and more shrinking, for fear of getting into trouble.
"Xue Long!" Ling Xiyue waved her sleeves.
"My subordinate is here!"
Xue Long drank deeply.
"The Qiu family levies exorbitant taxes privately, violating the rules and regulations, and violating the laws and disciplines." The young girl was as majestic as the mountains and deep seas, showing the majesty of a king. "I immediately mobilized two thousand divine feather troops to surround me.
Every family house was searched, and everyone in the family was escorted to the county guard's prison. They were scrutinized strictly and any offenders were punished by death!"
"yes"
Xue Long received the order and turned around to mobilize his troops.
"Queen, you are wronged, you are wronged!" Qi Tianba looked horrified.
how so?
It shouldn't be like this!
The surrounding stall owners and people were even more shocked. They never expected that things would turn around again.
Is the Qiu family about to end?
Have their hard times finally come to an end?
Only then did everyone dare to raise their heads and look at each other excitedly to make sure they heard correctly.
Ling Xiyue got on her horse, her black hair tied high flying in the wind, "Who knows where the Qiu family's house is?"
"I!"
"The grass people know!"
"I know!"
…
The originally deserted market streets were noisy and people raised their hands.
"lead the way!"
The moon is as dark as water.
In an instant, the crowd surged out!
Everyone rushed towards the west in groups. Many stall owners even closed their stalls directly and went to witness this historic moment. This meant that they would have enough to eat, wear warm clothes and have money to spend.
This is a matter of life!
How can you not be excited?
"It's over, it's over, everything is over..." Qi Tianba immediately collapsed to the ground. His fat body was like a puddle of mud. Two Shenyu soldiers grabbed his arms and almost dragged him away.
