Bai Qingyan jumped off his horse and looked back at the two children and two women who had been dismounted brought back by the cavalry. They were full of uncertainty and panic.

She said, "don't worry, I'm here... No one can take a child from chunmu city! Go back!"

Hearing the speech, the young woman burst into tears and hurriedly pulled the two children down on their knees to kowtow to Bai Qingyan: "the great kindness of the princess of the town, the people's wife must remember! Never dare to forget! Tiger egg and Niu Niu, come on... Kowtow to the princess of the town!"

The old woman also cried and kowtowed together: "thank you, Princess of the town!"

"Princess of the town!" Liu Hong disagreed with Bai Qingyan's release of the children. Since the imperial decree wanted these children, they must be sent to jiuchongtai. He believed that the emperor would exchange the throne with the king of Liang, but did not believe that the emperor would use the lives of a thousand young children to refine the ethereal elixir of longevity.

Bai Qingyan turned a deaf ear to Liu Hong's voice and helped the woman and children up: "get up! Don't do this! Go back quickly!"

Seeing that more yamen servants came at the news, they drew their swords and long swords to rush into the Yamen. Bai Qingyan's eyes were cold and heavy, and ordered: "Yang wuce surrounded the yamen, and those yamen servants are not allowed to go half a step closer to the people!"

"Yes!" Yang wuce answered, dismounted with half the cavalry and surrounded the government office.

Those yamen servants who came here after hearing the news saw that 50 officers and men surrounded the Yamen. They even drew a knife at them to prevent them from entering the Yamen. Yamen servants, look at me and you. I don't know the situation.

In the government office, those people who had found their children saw that their children were locked in wooden cages, cried and scolded, smashed the lock, rescued the children and hugged them in their arms.

It was the lame ex soldier who shouted for everyone to withdraw quickly. The people were busy pulling their children out.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they were about to rush out of the yamen, they saw that the gate of the Yamen was surrounded by soldiers. It was strange that those soldiers did not draw a knife against them, but drew a knife to stop the Yamen outside the Yamen.

The lame retired man protected the people and his son behind him and looked at the Jin army outside the door.

"General, did you... Do something wrong?" the Yamen who came to catch those disorderly people did not understand. "Those people who robbed children are inside!"

"Grandpa, I know!" Yang wuce stood in front, holding a sword at his waist. "The princess of the town has ordered that you yamen servants should not go half a step closer to the people!"

Knowing that these soldiers could not fight hard, the Yamen had to turn around and whisper to his subordinates: "go! Inform the county magistrate... The princess of Zhenguo is coming!"

Bai Qingyan and Liu Hong, with the remaining 50 cavalry, came to the Yamen.

She looked at the Yamen servants and went straight to the Yamen.

The people in the Yamen hid the children behind them, gnashing their teeth and looking at Bai Qingyan and his party. If anyone dares to rob the children, they will fight hard.

"You are surprised!" as soon as Liu Hong entered the door, he was afraid that Bai Qingyan first promised to let the people take the children back, disobeyed the imperial edict, and hurried forward to bow his hands to the people, "Gentlemen... Gentlemen! I'm Liu Hong, general of the state of Jin. Today, I Liu Hong take my life as a guarantee. Your majesty doesn't want to use children's lives to refine the elixir of immortality, but to select children with pure character and climb the Jiuchong platform with your majesty to ask for the elixir!"

"Bah! You're fooling the ghost!" a fierce woman spat at Liu Hong with red eyes and gnashed her teeth. "If it's so good, how can the county magistrate dare not let his little son go, and those rich families... All bought children from people's teeth!"

Just because of this, now the boys and girls between the ages of five and ten in the hands of people's teeth have become in demand, and the asking price is very high.

"That's not true! If you really just let the children go to ask for magic medicine, why do you use the cool method of sitting together! If someone doesn't hand in the children... They will kill their neighbors together. Do you think we are all fools?!"

"Princess of the town!" the lame retired man looked at Bai Qingyan, who was standing with a silver armor, and opened his eyes. He recognized Bai Qingyan, and his eyes were suddenly hot.

The man came forward with a limp and knelt on one knee with a crutch: "Princess of the town, Xiao Min is a Jin soldier who was injured and retired from the southern battlefield in the 16th year of Xuanjia. It's a good fortune to meet the princess of the town! Here... Many children are the bones and blood left by the dead Jin soldiers! Xiao Min has seen the princess of the town teach Jin soldiers in the barracks, saying that... The soldiers are supported by the people's taxes and soldiers of the people! Although Xiao Min has not read many books, the princess of the town is a soldier of the people But the words have always been remembered in the hearts of the little people! The little people begged the princess of the town to spare these children for their parents' sacrifice for the country! "

"Town princess?!"

"The eldest granddaughter of old general Bai, the Duke of the town?"

"Is it really from the white family of the town government?"

When the people saw the man who took the lead in robbing their children kneel down and talked about it, they all knelt down and scrambled to express to Bai Qingyan... Calling their children or uncles or fathers or grandfathers the death war of the country.

"Princess of the town! Please, like the late general Bai, protect the children of our people!" the old man who had received the favor of Bai Weiting kowtowed heavily and cried.

Bai Qingyan held the whip's hand and almost crushed it. His mood surged in his heart.

She said in a deep voice, "no one can take your children away from you with me! Take your children home!"

Before the people could kowtow to Bai Qing, Liu Hong couldn't help saying in a loud voice: "Princess of the town! Do you want to resist the order? These children... Whatever your Majesty's order wants! As ministers, how can we ignore the imperial power and authority?! this is a great disrespect to your majesty!"

"Such an emperor, let me respect... Does he deserve it?" Bai Qingyan clenched his teeth and turned to Liu Hong to raise his voice, "Whether it's the two children outside the city at spring dusk, or these children here, their grandfather, father and uncle died in the battle! Shed blood for the sake of protecting the environment and the people! The emperor wants to use their only bones and blood in the world to refine elixirs. What do you want to live forever! General Liu... Is such an emperor worthy of respect?!"

Liu Hong clenched his fist: "Your Majesty is the king, we are ministers... If the king is wrong, we can advise! But we can't disrespect!"

"Remonstrance?! didn't Prime Minister Lu advise? Did the emperor listen? What's the reason why he was imprisoned for the crime of disrespect and ordered to abolish the position of prime minister and establish a cabinet?! isn't it because of Prime Minister Lu's remonstrance!" Bai Qingyan asked Liu Hong loudly, "This is just a spring twilight city! I don't know how many spring twilight cities in Jin are recruiting children. I don't know how many cities are like the miserable image of hell on earth!"
