Chapter 336 Ma Wucai was furious
The princess and the Imperial City Commander Wen Boyuan, dressed in ordinary cloth, blended into the bustling crowd and arrived in front of the Neiqiu County Yamen without showing anything. Zhao Yingluo, the golden princess, has now disguised herself as a handsome husband, with an extraordinary temperament revealed between her brows.
She walked up the steps of the county government office, straightened her clothes, took a deep breath, and then beat the drum to complain. The sound of drums rumbled and echoed in the county government office. Soon, the county magistrate Ma Wucai hurried out and sat in the court hall, looking at everyone in the hall with a majestic look.
"Who is here? If you have any grievances, report them immediately!" Ma Wucai asked in a deep voice.
Zhao Yingluo took a step forward and said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone: "I am Zhao Lang, from Neiqiu County. Today I am here to sue the county magistrate, Mr. Ma, for oppressing the people, imposing excessive taxes, and making the people miserable."
When Ma Wucai heard this, he laughed angrily: "You are so brave! You dare to falsely accuse the imperial official. Come here, catch this madman!"
Following Ma Wucai's order, several government officials pounced on Zhao Yingluo like wolves and tigers. However, before they could get close, Wen Boyuan easily put them down and screamed in pain.
Ma Wucai was shocked when he saw this, his face suddenly changed, but he still managed to calm down and shouted: "You are so brave, you dare to beat the government officials in the court! Do you know what a serious crime this is?"
Wen Boyuan was about to step forward to teach Ma Wucai a lesson, but was gently held back by Zhao Yingluo. "Commander Wen, don't be impulsive." She said calmly, "Killing a county magistrate is not a big deal to me."
As soon as he said this, Ma Wucai's face instantly turned pale.
Zhao Yingluo just smiled contemptuously, "We'll wait here to see what fate you can bring to us."
Ma Wucai glared at them angrily, "You trash! Why do I feed you?" He turned to Zhao Yingluo and Wen Boyuan, "Just wait! I will let you know the consequences of offending me!"
Ma Wucai was completely angered by her contemptuous attitude. He suddenly slapped his hand and said, "Come here! Capture these two madmen for me!" However, at this time, the government officials were already frightened by Wen Boyuan's skills. , no one dared to step forward easily.
Ma Wucai left the court angrily, presumably to move reinforcements. Zhao Yingluo and Wen Boyuan were quietly waiting for the next storm. They know that this drama has just begun...
Zhao Yingluo chuckled when she heard this, "Oh? There is someone in the court? So what? Do you think I will be afraid?"
He stared at the handsome man in front of him with wide eyes, trying to see a trace of panic or fear on his face.
Ma Wucai swallowed his saliva and said with an inward look: "Do you, do you know who I am? There is someone in my court! You are so arrogant and domineering, you will be severely punished!"
However, Zhao Yingluo's expression was always as calm as water, as if she was saying something ordinary.
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became tense, and a storm seemed to be coming. However, Zhao Yingluo and Wen Boyuan stood there calmly, as if everything was under their control.
Ma Wucai walked to the back hall angrily, with a bit of cruelty on his face. He immediately ordered his master to go to the Xiangjun camp outside the county as quickly as possible, and asked Du Yuhou Liang Kuo to come quickly for support.
Liang Kuo is not only his cousin, but also his supporter here. The two have a close relationship, and they both prosper and suffer.
The master took the order and left, and soon hurried back with Liang Kuo and three hundred troops. Liang Kuo was a tall man with a fierce look on his face. When he learned that his brother was threatened, he immediately ordered 300 elite soldiers to help the county government without saying a word.
Seeing Liang Kuo and Xiang Jun arriving, Ma Wucai became more confident.
He turned back to the lobby again, with a proud smile on his face, and looked at Zhao Yingluo provocatively, as if to say: "Now, what other tricks do you have?"
Zhao Yingluo just looked at him coldly, without any fear on her face. She had already expected that Ma Wucai would move in for reinforcements, and was not surprised by this.
Liang Kuo also stood beside Ma Wucai to support his brother. He waved his hand and ordered three hundred soldiers to surround Zhao Yingluo and Wen Boyuan. Amidst the flash of swords and shadows, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
"You two madmen, how dare you disturb Tai Sui! Today I will show you my power, Liang Kuo!" Liang Kuo roared, his voice echoing in the lobby.
Wen Boyuan stood in front of Zhao Yingluo, scanning the surrounding Xiang troops with vigilance, ready to respond to emergencies at any time. Although his skills were extraordinary, he did not dare to be careless in the face of three hundred well-trained Xiang troops.
The farmers, merchants and ordinary people who had originally hoped that Zhao Yingluo could help them redress their grievances began to talk after seeing Liang Kuo leading an army of three hundred troops. They felt that this young man had really stirred up a hornet's nest. Facing such a powerful force, he would definitely not end well.
"Hey, this young man is too impulsive. How can he win against the county magistrate and Du Yuhou?"
"Yes, he looks quite handsome, but unexpectedly he turns out to be a stupid young man."
"I'm afraid it's going to be a disaster this time. It's such a pity."
People were talking one after another, but Zhao Yingluo seemed not to hear them and stood in the center of the hall with a calm expression. She took a deep breath and winked at Wen Boyuan. Wen Boyuan nodded knowingly and then whistled.
The sharp whistle penetrated the courtyard wall of the county government office and spread outside. Soon, fifty soldiers in civilian clothes were seen quickly pouring into the Neiqiu County Yamen. They were all tall and strong, with bright eyes. It was obvious at a glance that they were well-trained people.
When Liang Kuo saw the fifty soldiers pouring in, he was startled for a moment, and then laughed loudly, "Why, you only have these reinforcements? How dare fifty people come to join in the fun? You really overestimate your capabilities!"
Zhao Yingluo just looked at him coldly, without any fear on her face, "Liang Kuo, don't go too far. Do you think you can have an advantage just by having more people? Sometimes, quality is far more important than quantity."
"Hmph, boy, you're not too soft-spoken! Then let me see what fifty of you can do!" Liang Kuo said disdainfully.
Wen Boyuan stood up. He glanced sharply at everyone present, and then said loudly: "Although there are only fifty of us, each one of us is a warrior worth ten. Today, we will let you see our strength." sharp!"
As soon as the words fell, the fifty soldiers took action quickly. They had a clear division of labor and a tacit cooperation. They were not afraid of the large number of Xiang troops. Although they were at a numerical disadvantage, their combat effectiveness and morale far exceeded that of the Xiang army.
For a moment, the county government office was filled with flashes of swords and shouts of killing.
