Someone recognized Yang Binqing, and the previous suspicion disappeared in an instant.
They are all members of the Yang family. Yang Binqing is a direct descendant and holds an official position. If he were to come out and make a fuss about spreading false information, I'm afraid he must be out of his mind.
Therefore, there is no need to say anything more. Looking at the spectacular group of dozens of people following Yang Binqing, everyone is holding gongs and drums in their hands, and now they are beating them loudly, it is obvious that they are really sent by the government.
Oh my god, the government is really going to distribute food!
People die for money, birds die for food. After all, the poor people work hard all their lives just to have a bite to eat. Now the imperial court gives food for free. Who doesn't like food? Some elderly people in their fifties have already turned around and rushed to Chengpingcang eagerly.
Some people left at once. Yang Binqing saw it and felt even more frightened. He looked back at the surrounding buildings, not daring to be distracted anymore, and hurriedly continued to beat the gong and drum and shout.
The same thing happened to Councillor Yang. He was at the main gate of the Ji family, and obviously more people knew him. He personally led the team to beat drums and gongs, and the vast majority of people believed him. In a short while, more than half of the people on the main street left. He did not have time to sigh or think about anything. As there were fewer people, he naturally walked forward, and suddenly he saw his wife and daughter hanging on the archway, with an unknown expression on their faces.
Councillor Yang suddenly felt as if his heart had been seized by someone.
Although Senator Yang was not a good person, he was not the kind of person who would abandon his wife and daughter. You could tell from the fact that even before planning something big, he assigned a team of people to take his wife and daughter away in advance.
Therefore, what he saw now made Senator Yang's eyes sore.
Because of this, Councillor Yang dared not to be distracted in front of Xiao Heng anymore. He continued to beat the gong and shout. The sound was so loud that many people covered their ears and turned around to look at him.
With their troops divided into several groups and shouting like this, many people dispersed. Even the more difficult ones kept shouting that the matter of the ancestral hall had not been explained yet, and they would never leave, otherwise they would be sorry for their ancestors. Councillor Yang also patiently explained that the matter of the ancestral hall was a complete misunderstanding, and that it was caused by an unfilial descendant of the clan who had been punished for his negligence. Now the person has been caught, and it was all a misunderstanding.
Senator Yang himself is a direct descendant of the Yang family.
If someone else came out to explain, the people might still not believe it, but since he said it himself, who could say anything else
The last group of disobedient ones also dispersed.
The alley was suddenly empty.
Mr. Ji was sweating profusely at first, especially just now, the gate was really half shaken down by the collision, and he was already thinking about how to escape when the people really rushed in. However, just when Mr. Ji was anxious to help him escape, the movement outside stopped.
Old Master Ji and Young Master Ji looked at each other.
Tang Qingfeng outside also jumped onto the tree with a calm expression to check the situation outside.
He was a little surprised to see the people retreating like the tide. But when he saw Councillor Yang and his group remaining in the alley after the people had retreated, all his doubts disappeared.
He also knew what happened in the inner house.
Senator Yang can bring people here at this time, and the person who is guarding him is Sanjiu. What else is there to not understand
He jumped down from the tree, smiled and nodded to the guards below: "Okay, it's okay, move all the trees away, open the door, your highness is back."
The guards blocking the door were exhausted and didn't know what to do, but the people retreated on their own. Moreover, His Highness had returned, which was truly a blessing from heaven. Everyone perked up and worked together to move the tree away and open the door.
Old Master Ji and Master Ji had also received the news. When they heard that the crisis had been resolved and that His Highness had returned, the father and son looked at each other, both grateful for having survived the disaster.
Then, they hurriedly reported the news to the inner house while quickly going out to greet His Highness and others.
In the inner house, the women dared not stay alone in the yard anymore. Su Yao had caught those who wanted to save Madam Yang, and those people had also injured the guards who were guarding Madam Yang. These people were really armed, so who dared to stay alone in the yard? They all gathered around Madam Ji.
Then, everyone could hear the sound of the tide outside, and everyone's face turned pale.
It was unknown how long it had been before the ladies heard the noises outside gradually fade away. They looked at each other, extremely frightened, and could not help but look towards Mrs. Ji in fear.
Mrs. Ji looked calm on the surface, so how could she really have no reaction in her heart
She was also terribly frightened.
But how could they show it? He smiled and comforted the ladies, saying that the imperial envoy's guards were still in the mansion, and that even if the government knew the news, they would definitely send someone, so they didn't need to worry.
Just as she was comforting him, the door suddenly opened and the maid came in with a happy expression. She told him the good news from the front yard and said, "Don't be afraid. His Highness has already entered our house!"
Mrs. Ji breathed a sigh of relief silently and comforted the ladies with a smile on her face.
The ladies finally felt relieved and asked curiously, "Where is the county lady?"
Just now a few ladies were making a big fuss, and Su Yao stepped in to calm them down, then brought them to Mrs. Ji and asked Mrs. Ji to look after everyone. Now everything is fine, and everyone remembered Su Yao.
Mrs. Ji mentioned Su Yao, and her smile became more sincere: "She originally went to the west corner gate. I heard that the thieves would come in from there. Now, I'm afraid she has received the news and rushed to the front yard."
Su Yao did receive the message. She breathed a sigh of relief and went to the front yard.
As she reached the partition in the front yard, she ran into Xiao Heng, Su Rong and their group who were in a hurry. She was stunned, let out a breath, and chuckled.
When Su Rong saw her, his tense spirit suddenly relaxed. He quickly walked up to her and looked at her for a while: "Are you okay?"
Su Yao shook his head and said a few words to him. Suddenly he caught a glimpse of Xiao Heng looking at him. For some reason, his heart skipped a beat.
Her heart was beating fast. She didn't know why, but she didn't dare to look anymore. She quickly avoided Xiao Heng's gaze and pretended to listen to Su Rong's questions seriously.
Su Rong was relieved after confirming that she was really safe and sound. He frowned and sneered, "This time, we must not let these parasites go! It's ridiculous. The court is lenient every day, and this leniency has produced a bunch of second uncles. Yunnan is almost no longer called Xiao!"
Su Yao wanted to remind him that, in fact, since Taizu, Yunnan was no longer considered to have the surname Xiao.
