The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day-Chapter 160 - 87 Travel to Yuzhou (8) Meeting with Xiaowu

Ye Qichi took the initiative to look for the soldiers, which gave the soldiers quite a scare.

"Are you not afraid of death?!" The soldiers were furious, blowing their beards and glaring their eyes, as if she was provoking them.

Originally, they were already furious from losing track, and of course, they didn’t want to kill innocents rashly. They thought they could finally breathe a sigh of relief, but this fearless woman came back!

"Sir, I would like to discuss something with you."

"There’s nothing to discuss, hurry up and go, otherwise we will kill you right now," the soldiers said aggressively.

Ye Qichi said, "Don’t you also want to see your parents? Take me to Yuzhou City, I’ll help you see your parents."

"What nonsense, get out of here right now!" The soldier seemed very fierce.

In fact, they just wanted her to spare her life.

If other soldiers discovered her presence again, she would definitely be killed without doubt.

"Sir..."

"Big sister, just listen to your elder brother, alright? I don’t want to kill you, can you leave, please?" one of the soldiers almost knelt down to Ye Qichi.

That’s to say.

There are still many good people in this world.

Ye Qichi smiled and said, "Sir, I won’t hide it from you any longer, we are Imperial Envoys dispatched by the court specifically to investigate the plague incident in Yuzhou City. But now, due to the Military Governor of Yuzhou and others within the court conspiring, fearing our arrival revealing their cover up of the plague, they have been sending people to kill us. We have been pursued all the way from Xun City to here, and all those who accompanied us have scattered. We have barely made it to Yuzhou, we cannot afford to fail now."

"Imperial Envoy?" The two soldiers seemed somewhat incredulous.

"Have you ever thought why anyone coming to Yuzhou City has to be killed without any reason? The Military Governor fears our arrival, fearing that it might cost him his position," Ye Qichi asked them.

The two soldiers looked at each other, still somewhat disbelieving.

"Right now, the citizens of Yuzhou City are in deep misery, everyone is locked within Yuzhou City with nothing to eat or drink. More importantly, the plague continues to spread, if this continues, the entire Yuzhou City will become a city of death. Are you really willing to watch idly as your fellow townspeople are tormented to death?!" Ye Qichi reasoned with them emotionally.

The two soldiers were undecided.

Ye Qichi did not rush them.

One soldier suddenly said, "Are you asking me to help you with this?!"

"Are you crazy! Aren’t you afraid of being beheaded for defying the Military Governor?!" The other soldier hastily intervened.

"Even if it means being beheaded, I still want to help them. Right now, the city’s people are suffering terribly. I still don’t know how my dad and mom are doing?! The superior said that the city gates will open after the plague, but when will the plague end? I heard that the plague inside has never stopped, and more and more people are being infected. If the court doesn’t step in to help, the plague simply can’t be controlled!"

"But..."

"As a man, one should protect his homeland. But now, what we are doing is not protecting our nation or our kin, but harming our own people! I have long wanted to rebel!"

"How can you be so sure they are people sent by the court?" the other soldier asked doubtfully.

"I..." the soldier was momentarily speechless.

They looked at Ye Qichi.

Ye Qichi said, "I don’t have anything to prove our identities, because if it were found by the soldiers, our identities would be exposed, and we’d be dead before reaching Yuzhou City."

The two soldiers looked skeptical.

"Actually, no proof is necessary, you only need to think about it to understand. Right now everyone knows that Yuzhou City is very dangerous, who would insist on going into the city at this time? And who would want to be trapped there to die?"

Upon hearing Ye Qichi say this, the soldiers seemed somewhat convinced.

"But what can you do if you go? Now in Yuzhou City, it’s all the people of the Military Governor, your arrival won’t help," one soldier said.

"I’ll go find Sir Pang Nan," Ye Qichi said frankly, not intending to deceive these two.

In needing help, it’s necessary to be honest with them.

"Sir Pang Nan." The two men clearly revered him more, and it was apparent from their tone.

"He is upright and incorruptible, currently only remaining loyal to the Military Governor thus unable to defy his orders. Once we show up, Sir Pang Nan, for the sake of the people, will definitely stand with the court. This way, the common people of Yuzhou City can be rescued."
