Something happened?
As the saying goes, if you don't do something wrong, you're not afraid of ghosts.
But had the steward of the Mighty Marquis Manor never done anything wrong?
No!
Of course he had done it.
He had done more than one or two, so many that he could not even count them.
Because of this, when he heard that something had happened, he instinctively panicked.
He quickly went through it in his mind.
Which incident happened?
Was it me who forced others to sell their children?
Or was it the matter of me beating the innkeeper of the shop to death?
Or the matter of me publicly asking for money…
In an instant, dozens of things popped up in his mind.
Then, he reacted.
Wait a minute.
Why are you panicking?
What did this person just say?
He was a censor of the Overwatch Council?
Overwatch Council?
The steward revealed a confused expression.
What is the Overwatch Council?"
He really didn't mean to look down on her.
He really did not know.
In the end, he wasn't a big shot. He was just a steward of the manor. Although he looked glorious, he was just a servant.
What knowledge could he have?
The Overwatch Council's presence was so weak that he could not hear a single sound. Of course, he did not know.
However, there were still people who understood in the manor.
Immediately, a scholar dressed like an accountant came over and whispered in his ear.
"A government office that has long since been abolished dares to come to the marquis 'manor to arrest me?”
The steward had been a little afraid, but now that he knew the details of the Overwatch Council, he immediately became arrogant.
His triangular eyes flashed with disdain, and his gaze deliberately swept past the Overwatch Council.
Some were old, some were fat.
No matter how he looked at it, he did not look like an elite soldier.
The faces of the Overwatch Council members burned with his gaze.
They felt ashamed.
If it was in the past, they would not know shame.
At that time, the Overwatch Council was lifeless, rotten, and lonely. Everyone was a walking corpse. No one cared about what others thought.
Would a person whose heart was dead and whose blood was cold have any sense of shame?
The answer was no.
However, things were different now.
This new Imperial Censor first used a series of enlightening words to suppress everyone.
Then, he personally practiced his words and deeds.
He was a true hero. He fulfilled the meaning of the Overwatch Council's existence.
When he faced the blades and spears of the Mighty Marquis Residence alone…
Everyone was shocked and moved.
But there was no pride.
Because they felt that they did not deserve to be with Ye Ning.
The steward's gaze magnified the guilt and inferiority in their hearts to the extreme. For a moment, everyone lowered their heads.
No one noticed that although their heads were lowered, their eyes were flashing with a complicated light.
It was difficult to describe the emotions contained in these " lights."
But at least he was no longer a numb zombie.
"Their passion, pride, and sense of responsibility are being awakened by brother Ye.”
Cai Xianggao noticed this scene.
It was good to have a sense of shame.
The people of the Overwatch Council were not simple.
He had completely understood.
Other than Wei Wentong, Niu Jinxi, and the strange old man whose background was unknown.
The other subordinate officials and bailiffs were not ordinary people either.
They were the oddities of officialdom.
If it was a golden age where the people were united and righteous people occupied the court, then treacherous officials were different.
If it was a chaotic world, where crafty sycophants ran amok and the atmosphere was foul, then loyal officials were different.
In this era, he was seen as an anomaly, ostracized, thrown into the Overwatch Council to wait for death.
This wasn't anything embarrassing.
At least, that was what Cai Xianggao thought.
Because he felt that for an official to be thrown into the Overwatch Council, it first showed that they had a bottom line.
Either they were outstanding and attracted the jealousy of their colleagues.
Either they were upright and upright, causing their superiors to be dissatisfied.
They were either maverick and ostracized by cliques.
……
In short, it could be understood this way. These people from the Overwatch Council looked ordinary, but they were not ordinary people in the past.
"Perhaps the Overwatch Council is the place in the entire Great Zhou where the most loyal and hot-blooded officials gather.”
Cai Xianggao smiled.
He no longer felt despair.
He had thought that being thrown into the Overwatch Council was the end of his career. He had not expected that there would be such a miraculous turn of events.
His Majesty and all the nobles in the court probably did not expect this.
" A just cause has more support than an unjust cause. Perhaps this is God's will. A person as upright and impartial as Brother Ye would never fight alone…These people of the Overwatch Council are a gift from the heavens to Brother Ye.”
Cai Xianggao muttered to himself.
If brother Ye knew this, he would be very touched.
Of course, Cai Xianggao was not optimistic that things would go smoothly.
Because the people of the Overwatch Council were just like the strange old man had said. Their dreams had died.
It was very difficult to wake them up.
But Cai Xianggao didn't think it was a big deal.
If there was one person in this world who could wake them up, it would be Brother Ye!
If Ye Ning knew about this, he would definitely strangle Cai Xianggao and tell him excitedly.
"Thank you!"
But Ye Ning didn't know, so he still thought that he was courting death without hesitation.
He heard the steward's mockery.
" The founding ancestor has a clear decree that for every day the Great Zhou exists, the Overwatch Council will exist. The Overwatch Council cannot be abolished for future generations!”
Ye Ning stared at him, his voice carrying a sense of majesty.
"So, the Overwatch Council has never been crippled!”
" Perhaps in the past, there were many things that the Overwatch Council was absent from. It has been many years since the Overwatch Council's voice was heard.”
" But the Overwatch Council has always existed. Just like now, it has returned like the blazing sun.”
Ye Ning's words awakened people's initial memories of the Overwatch Council.
The scholars were in tears.
The Overwatch Council practiced the rule of law and fairness.
This was the same as the path of sages that they pursued.
The commoners were also moved.
In the stories they heard when they were young, the elders always said that there was a place where people could reason. The great lord there was willing to make decisions for the people.
The more hardworking the masses were, the more they liked to fantasize. The fatigue of life was enough to suppress them. They needed to use fantasies to give themselves the motivation to persevere.
Ji Mingyue fell silent.
The Great Zhou was already on the verge of destruction.
Her gaze was always on the entire world.
Compared to the entire world, she had neglected the Overwatch Council.
Because she felt that letting the Great Zhou continue to exist was the top priority.
And a yamen like the Overwatch Council was not within her consideration for the time being.
As a result, she had never considered the meaning of the Overwatch Council's existence.
At this moment, Ye Ning reminded him.
Many thoughts came to her mind at that moment.
She seemed to vaguely understand why Taizu valued the Overwatch Council so much.
"Bullshit!"
The steward spat.
Of course, he couldn't empathize with what Ye Ning said.
From his perspective, he only knew one thing.
That is, there is an unknown person who works in a government office that has long been abolished. Then, he dares to come to the Marquis's residence to find trouble with me!
Coming to the marquis fu to find trouble with me, this is clearly looking down on the Weiwu marquis fu!
That's right, for someone like him, his logic was that simple.
Whatever this and that, it was not important.
If you want to touch me, then let's see whose fist is harder!
"Who do you think you are? You actually dare to act atrociously in our Marquisdom. Even the emperor is polite to our Marquisdom. Do you think you are worthy of coming to the Marquisdom to capture me?"
The manager became completely arrogant.
After figuring out Ye Ning's rank and background, he was no longer nervous.
In the capital, any force without the backing of an immortal sect was trash!
This was the most effective logic in his heart.
Those who had the protection of the immortal sect were all masters.
Not to be trifled with.
Those without the protection of the immortal sect were all grandsons.
If you dare to provoke me, I'll kill you!
"The Overwatch Council has clear rules. Anyone who has committed a crime, from the royal family to the common people, the Overwatch Council has the right to arrest them!”
Ye Ning's eyes flashed with a cold light.
"What, are you resisting arrest?”
He was enraged.
If he had known earlier that the Marquisdom was arrogant.
He didn't expect a mere manager to be so arrogant.
The law-enforcement yamen had come to question him, but not only did he not obey, he even insulted him.
What was wrong with this world?
Was it really that as long as one fawned over an immortal sect, even a dog could bite people casually?
"Resisting arrest?"
The steward suddenly became ferocious. He rolled up his sleeves and personally picked up a Waterflame Rod.
Crack!
The rod shook.
She fell on the ground and made a beautiful flower.
"It's not whether you want to arrest me or not, it's whether I want to let you off! Damn it, you really don't know the immensity of heaven and earth…I'll teach you to open your eyes today and let you know who you can offend and who you can't afford to offend!”
With a wave of his hand, a large group of servants picked up their weapons and rushed towards Ye Ning.
He wasn't trying to scare people. He really dared to beat an official of the imperial court to death!
This was not the first time the Mighty Marquis Manor had done such a thing.
It was still the same sentence. Even if he died, he would die in vain!
The Weiwu Marquis Manor had the Celestial Gate as its backing, who dared to convict him?
"How dare you!"
When Cai Xianggao saw this scene, he was shocked and furious.
"A mere servant dares to hit an official of the Imperial Court?”
He blurted out the question.
But after asking, he had already gotten the answer.
Of course not.
The law is nothing!
Other than Lord Ye who was still defending, who would still take the law seriously?
He glanced at Wei Wentong and Niu Jinxi.
Their expressions were complicated and their faces were red.
He was touched.
But he was not completely moved.
Therefore, it was impossible to count on them to make a move.
Cai Xianggao shouted in desperation.
"Stop! Do you know that you're hitting Ye Ning? The Ye Ning who drew out the Sage's projection and wrote the national poem!”
What was that?
Ye Ning?
Let's not talk about what these servants thought.
The surrounding scholars went crazy.
Who was Ye Ning?
After such a long period of time, Ye Ning's deeds and works had long spread throughout the capital, and even the entire world!
All the scholars regarded Ye Ning as their idol.
A person like him is exactly what a scholar should be like!
Many people privately said that Ye Ning was the reincarnation of an ancient sage, who had come to save the world.
From this, it could be seen how high Ye Ning's status was in the hearts of scholars.
"This person is actually Lord Ye!"
"No wonder he was unafraid of death and didn't change his expression when facing death. As expected of Lord Ye!”
"If you want to kill Lord Ye, you must first ask me, Scholar Li!”
"And me!"
The scholars were boiling.
Scholars, the younger they were, the more impulsive they were.
Because at this age, they hadn't been beaten up by society yet. They believed in the dead logic of books.
The book once said: Where righteousness goes, life and death follow!
You actually want to hit Lord Ye!
He really didn't deserve to be a son!
I'm going all out!
The scholars rushed out with a bang. They threw their books out and cursed. They said all kinds of seemingly fierce but actually very "elegant" vulgarities.
The servants were stunned.
When had they ever seen a scholar riot?
Would these weaklings who only knew how to read and had no strength to even tie up a chicken protect a person like this?
Even the steward was a little nervous.
He was not afraid of these scholars, but he realized that Ye Ning's identity was not as simple as he thought.
How could an ordinary official drive a scholar crazy?
This was not right!
Thus, very naturally, this group of menacing servants stopped halfway.
Ye Ning, who had already opened his arms and was ready to die happily, was also stunned.
What was going on?
I'm clearly about to die. Why did something go wrong again?
At this moment, he heard Cai Xianggao's shout.
"Brother Ye, I won't allow you to die!”
It appeared!
The culprit had appeared!
Ye Ning looked at Cai Xianggao with grief and indignation, his heart filled with disbelief.
Even you came to backstab me?
Tsk!
