alloy hardness is also very strong, and the anti-corrosion ability is super strong. Adding it to stainless steel can increase the corrosion resistance of stainless steel several times!But the problem...Because they all knew, the two of them going into the house, were armed with crossbows, ready to ambush!
This is also the worst-case scenario they came up with after discussing it.
Although once you do it, killing the county officials, your future life will be without peace.
But Yang Lin couldn't do anything about it.
He has no confidence in the laws of this world.
Therefore, no matter what, you and your family must not fall into their hands!
If it really comes down to it, he'll have no choice but to resort to this last resort!
Everyone was on edge, but no one noticed that Xiao Jiu was now lost in thought, seeming to be pondering something...
The sound of heavy footsteps grew closer, and under the lead of a slave sent by Landlord Liu, Zhao Deyi soon arrived at Yang Lin's front gate with his men.
"Who is Yang Lin"
As soon as Zhao Deyi shouted, he couldn't help but be taken aback.
Eight women in the small courtyard, each with a figure and appearance that catches the eye.
Only Yang Lin, a man among all the flowers, stood out.
"Are you Yang Lin"
Zhao Deyi frowned, becoming even more displeased.
"I am Zhao Deyi, the county magistrate of Jianghe! Yang Lin, you dare to commit murder and falsely accuse Liu Youcai last night. Now this official has investigated the truth, the evidence is conclusive, why don't you surrender obediently and come with this official!"
Yang Lin sighed inwardly.
Zhao Deyi's identity was as expected.
As for how to turn the tables, it really doesn't matter.
Yang Lin gazed into the distance.
There was no movement in the distance.
He frowned, he didn't want to take that step until the very last moment!
As Zhao Deyi's order was given, the yamen guards on both sides stepped forward to arrest him.
"Wait a moment!"
Yang Lin shouted: "Zhao sir, things are not as they seem. Last night Liu Youcai sent people to kill me. There is both physical and eyewitness evidence, Zhao sir can verify it."
Although he knew that explaining himself further would be futile, he had to stall for time now.
"Humph! Don't try to argue! Whether you are guilty or not, this official decides! What are you waiting for, take him down!"
Seeing the officers swarming forward, the women panicked all at once. They completely forgot what they had agreed on that morning – not to block the line of fire. Instinctively, they all moved to shield Yang Lin.
The constables didn't care about that, and immediately resorted to violence.
Yang Lin seeing this, also hurriedly shouted: “Make way!”
He knew that the mistress and the third sister inside could attack at any moment. Standing here, going off-script, was only adding to the chaos!
Yang Lin's reminder made everyone realize the situation. Some gave way, but others were unwilling to concede and still blocked Yang Lin's path.
At this time, Xiao Jiu stood up.
She extended her small hand, pointed at Zhao Deyi sitting on the horse, and said coldly: "A mere county magistrate dares to show off his power, distort facts, and really has such a big nerve!"
The scene suddenly fell silent.
Everyone looked at Xiao Jiu in astonishment.
Even Yang Lin was taken aback.
He never expected that Xiao Jiu would dare to stand up.
When the constables saw that someone dared to yell at their county magistrate, they were shocked to find it was just a young girl. They rolled up their sleeves and prepared to beat Xiao Jiu.
"My father is Han Feng, the magistrate of Nanyang. I am his third daughter, Han Mengzhu! I look at whoever moves me!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the clerks who had just rolled up their sleeves all froze.
The magistrate was a fifth-rank official, who governed the entire Nanyang County and its six subordinate counties.
The county magistrate is only a seventh-rank official, let alone the county lieutenant who's an eighth-rank nobody.
The yamen officials looked at Zhao Deyi in bewilderment for a moment.
Zhao Deyi was taken aback by this, but then he burst into laughter.
"Are you the daughter of Magistrate Han"
"Indeed!"
Xia Jiu hugged her arms and raised her head.
"
Bah!
"
Zhao Deyi coldly said: "If your father were a magistrate, my father would still be the emperor!"
"Little girl, paltry tricks, do you think you can fool me"
"You probably don't know, this official has had the good fortune to meet Master Han once. I even learned that Master Han has three sons and two daughters at home! Hmph, pretending to be Master Han's third daughter You really think you could get away with that!"
"Come on, you lot! What are you waiting for" Zhao Deyi shouted at the guards. "It's clear she's impersonating someone. Don't you think a daughter of the知府 would be here in such a desolate place"
The officers were taken aback, but after some thought, they realized that he was right.
They don't know what the magistrate's daughter is like, but they assume she must be a typical sheltered young lady who never leaves her home. So how could she have ended up in this remote countryside, marrying a poor scholar
Thinking this way, the constables immediately got angry.
"Dare to mess with me"
"If they're accomplices, then arrest them all!"
The constables lunged for Xiao Jiu.
Xiao Jiu panicked at once.
"I'm really Han Feng's daughter! You have to believe me!"
“Zhao County Magistrate! If you dare to touch me, don't you fear I will tell my father and have you punished!”
Little Nine shouted.
However, the constables didn't believe him.
"Xiao Jiu, come back quickly."
Yang Lin hurriedly pulled Xiao Jiu behind him.
He sighed inwardly, thinking that Xiao Jiu was quite spirited to have come up with such a lie. It was a pity, though, that pretending to be the magistrate's daughter had too many holes and hadn't fooled anyone.
Don't say Zhao Deyi didn't believe it, Yang Lin himself didn't believe it.
As the battle was about to begin, Xiao Jiu was still standing at the front. Yang Lin worried that arrows might accidentally hit her, so he hurriedly pulled her back behind him.
"Brother, I'm really Han Feng's daughter. Han Feng is a big jerk. I didn't want to admit him as my father, but today I had no choice but to admit it. But they don't believe me..."
Little Jiu's tears flowed out.
Yang Lin's heart skipped a beat.
Could she be telling the truth
However, Yang Lin knew that even if Xiao Jiu was telling the truth and she truly was the governor's daughter, it wouldn't mean anything.
A local official is no match for the current situation. Don't even mention that she's the magistrate's daughter, even if the Emperor himself were here, without soldiers and generals, it would be useless.
Because compared to scary titles, the strength in your hands is the most important!
"Okay, it's fine."
Yang Lin shielded Xiao Jiu behind him and shouted, "I'm the one who did this, I'll take responsibility! Zhao County Magistrate, I'm coming with you!"
Yang Lin said, and was about to raise his hands.
They had agreed beforehand that as soon as he raised his hands, it would be a signal to fire the arrows!
However, just then, a group of people rushed over from a distance.
It is the bodyguard squad that has arrived!
Zhong Tao, leading his men, stormed directly into the courtyard and confronted the yamen officers.
Meanwhile, villagers carrying various farming tools also rushed over.
"Don't arrest Yang Lin!"
"Clearly, it was Liu the landowner who committed the murder. You should be arresting him, but instead, you're coming after Yang Lin. Is there any law left in this land"
"That's right, why don't we catch Liu Youcai"
More and more villagers gathered.
Yang Lin saw this, but thought to himself in dismay!
The villagers stood up to defend him at this moment, and he was moved by their support.
But this also ruined his plan.
In such a chaotic scene, it would be difficult for the young lady and third sister to shoot arrows if they tried to hide inside!outside towards the east.""Qin Shuang, you also lead a team of people. Leave the village from the north side and encircle eastward along the perimeter.""The rest of you, scatter and search!""Get your...
