Chapter 921: Complete Chaos

The atmosphere at the scene became instantly oppressive.

The young man's blood began to spread, onto the book, onto the ground, and the smell of blood began to assault the nose.

This scene was too shocking.

And it was too intoxicating.

Why?

Is this not a human life?

Such a young life, just because of a book, was gone just like that, died just like that?

An eerie silence.

Fresh blood, a book.

A book, fresh blood.

The government soldiers began to panic; they felt the silence before an eruption.

First publication website:

The onlookers looked at one another.

The atmosphere was building up, fermenting.

People's eyes began to turn red.

Why?

It was one thing not to let them read books, but now, because of a book, a death had occurred!

"Beat them!"

A moment later, these people finally could not hold back, and they rushed over, like a mountain toppling and the seas overturning. This gave the government soldiers a real fright.

"What are you doing?"

"These sons of b*tches!"

"F*ck them up!"

"Murderers, a bunch of murderers!"

Bang!

A stool hit the head of the government soldiers' leader directly.

With this, the conflict finally erupted completely.

"He jumped himself, it has nothing to do with us!"

"Nobody move!"

But at this moment, the people were clearly already intoxicated by the rage; who would care about that? Some grabbed stools and tools nearby, whatever was handy, and swarmed over all at once. These government soldiers were stunned; what should they do, should they suppress them or not? One must know that anyone living in this Hancheng was either rich or noble. If they provoked someone from a prominent family, did they even want to live?

If they could have been a bit more patient at this time, perhaps things would not have developed to the later extent. The key lay in the fact that, first, they had received orders from Li Hang and others for violent suppression, and second, they were used to being arrogant and domineering, throwing their weight around; how could they endure such humiliation?

Damn it!

The first person swung the blade in their hand toward the crowd.

"Beat them, beat them for me, a bunch of unruly mobs, a bunch of unruly mobs who can't tell right from wrong!"

The leader shouted angrily.

The government soldiers received the order and immediately drew their blades.

You are actually going to lay hands on these people!

"A bunch of dog government soldiers, beat them!"

"Beat them!"

Fresh blood spurted out again.

When the crowd saw this, they became even more intoxicated by the rage.

It would have been one thing if you had forced a young man to his death.

You are actually starting this in Hancheng.

"What are you saying?"

"Unruly mob! Unruly mob!"

In an instant, the scene fell into complete chaos. At this point, I fear that even if Li Hang came out now, he would be unable to clean up the mess.

These hundred-plus government soldiers were surrounded by thousands of commoners and beaten to a pulp. Under the resistance, the bloodshed was only the beginning. The entire street was already in total pandemonium.

Conflict between officials and the people.

Suppress!

Suppress with force!

He did not believe it; when the Westerner Party was in power, he had been stifled enough, and now that his Southern Faction was calling the shots, did he still have to be so stifled? With one order, the Duqi and Duwei of the entire city began to rush to the streets.

Li Hang received the news immediately.

What do these commoners want to do? They actually dare to ignore the authority of the government soldiers?

"Suppress them!"

They are insane!

Other nobles in Hancheng, seeing this situation, were also suddenly enraged.

It was one thing not to let us read books, but now you want to convict people because of books?

Hancheng rarely saw such things happen.

After all, this was the capital.

In an instant, the entire Hancheng was tense, with swords drawn and bows bent.

The Duqi Duwei also did not expect that these people would hate them so much! Facing the ruthless blades, the commoners showed no fear and banded together to fight them. Bloodshed began to occur continuously. It was chaotic; Hancheng was in complete chaos.

The chaos in Hancheng is only a minor matter.

Such things are actually playing out in every city across the entire Li Dynasty.

Since this Southern Faction came to power, they have been even more overbearing than the Westerner Party!

Resist!

Many servants and guard units from wealthy households have begun to take to the streets, participating in the struggle.

It is out of sympathy for Queen Inhyeon and hatred for Zhang Yuzhen.

It is precisely because Zhang Yuzhen became the Queen that all of this is happening, and that the war has suffered constant defeats!

It erupted.

A bloody case sparked by a book has thus raised its curtain.

There are many reasons for this event. Li Hang's erroneous decision-making is, of course, the fundamental cause, but more than that, it is because the Li Dynasty is currently suffering from the invasions of Wa, and while being burned, killed, and looted by the enemy, the populace believes that everyone should be united and stand together against the outside. Yet you civil and military officials only know how to bully each other at home every day!

There is more.

Continue to suppress them for me!

Not only that, the intensity of the suppression has escalated once again!

The bloodshed is becoming increasingly severe.

The emotions that have accumulated over these days have completely erupted throughout the entire Li Dynasty.

Li Hang and the others are all numb.

Suppress!

"Your Highness!"

Looking at Queen Inhyeon's side, she is welcomed by the common people wherever she goes. As her charity group gradually moves south, there are actually not many cities left that the Southern Faction can control. The social atmosphere here is freer, and with the popularity of the *Bitter Remonstrance* of the Xie Clan, more and more people have begun to sympathize with Queen Inhyeon and support her.

Watching the people along the way waving the books in their hands to welcome her, Queen Inhyeon's heart finds it hard to calm down.

"Queen Inhyeon!"

"Your Highness the Queen!"

She knows.

She is not far from returning to the position of Queen.

Because at this moment.

She knows that all of this is because of this Vice Minister Liu.

She cannot help but look back at him.

News of frequent bloodshed has already reached her ears.

The decisive battle.

The decisive battle is about to begin here.

The Southern Faction is still slaughtering a group of commoners who want to read!

The highly anticipated, critical battle between the Li Dynasty and Wa is about to begin.

Mizuno Masashige's great army has finally set out toward Qinghe Town.

The entire Li Dynasty is in an uproar.

If things go on like this.

The Li Dynasty is in danger!

If things go on like this.

Complex and intense ideologies have begun a serious collision and conflict. Countless people have begun to take to the streets, demanding that the Southern Faction step down and requesting that the Westerner Party regain control of the government; thus, as more and more people take to the streets to protest, it has become inevitable that there is more and more bloodshed.

Logistics support is hindered once again.

Meanwhile, the Westerner Party in Hancheng, led by Jin Wanji, has also gone to have an audience with Li Tun one after another.

She feels so lonely at this moment.

Zhang Yuzhen, the woman known as the number one enchantress of Joseon, sits at this moment with a haggard face in the Queen's palace that she had struggled so hard to seize.

The entire Queen's palace is silent.

The King is in danger!

The silence here forms a sharp contrast with the chaos of the Li Dynasty at this moment.

What, in the end, has she gained?
