"This…"
County Lieutenant Yu Fu's expression changed drastically.
However, his reaction was very fast. He rolled his eyes and said,
"Young Master, the terrain of this mountain range is steep and rugged. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack.
This general had sent troops to encircle and suppress them many times, but they could not do anything to the bandits and suffered heavy losses instead.
I am incompetent, please punish me!"
Although he was asking for forgiveness.
However, his words were full of reasons.
He didn't have the slightest intention of apologizing.
This method of shirking responsibility could be said to be an old fox in the officialdom.
If it was an ordinary person, they would not have heard his words.
There was really nothing wrong with it.
He probably fooled her.
But what kind of person was Ying Ziye?
He smiled coldly and questioned,
"Is that so? Why did I hear from the villagers that you didn't send any troops here?”
"Could it be that the villagers are lying to me?”
Hearing this.
The surrounding villagers.
He hurriedly knelt down and cried out that he was wronged.
Seeing this, Yu Fu could not help but be slightly stunned, and his face was a little pale.
He had forgotten about this.
He opened his mouth but didn't know how to explain.
Could it be that the raiders had bribed him many times?
That's why they didn't send troops to encircle and annihilate them?
"And…"
Ying Ziye's gaze was as sharp as a sword as he fiercely stabbed at Yu Fu.
His voice was like an ice cave, extremely cold and sharp.
"If it's as you said, since the siege was unsuccessful, why didn't you report it to the prefecture and ask for help?”
"Do you want me to immediately send someone to ask the county governor if he received your request to send troops?”
Swoosh--
County Lieutenant Yu Fu's face turned as pale as a sheet.
His entire body collapsed and he fell to the ground, speechless.
Seeing this.
Ying Ziye coldly snorted, then turned to look at the county magistrate who was wiping his cold sweat and asked,"
"According to the laws of Great Qin, how should we deal with these people who have neglected their duties?”
"This…"
The county magistrate hesitated for a moment.
He didn't know how to start.
" Huh??"
Ying Ziye's gaze suddenly shot over, his eyes incomparably indifferent.
Seeing this, the county magistrate hurriedly said,
"Cut off his head to warn others!"
Hearing this.
County Lieutenant Yu Fu suddenly raised his head and exclaimed loudly,
"Young Master, I am a county captain, an official of the imperial court. You cannot kill me as you please!”
As soon as he finished speaking.
Zhang Han's expression also changed drastically. He hurriedly took a few steps forward and whispered,"
"Young Master, killing an official of the Imperial Court is a serious crime, especially since your identity is a bit sensitive.
I thought that I could just report his crimes and let the Prefectural Governor decide according to the law. There was no need to kill him now!”
Zhang Han's words were sincere.
He was truly putting himself in Ying Ziye's shoes.
It could be seen that at this time, Ying Ziye's position in his heart.
He was already like a monarch.
Moreover, he was right.
He killed an official as a young master.
This was a very sensitive matter at any time.
At this time, although the county captain Yu Fu did not hear clearly.
However, he could guess the meaning behind Zhang Han's words.
He couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.
However, the county magistrate beside him, Zhao Jie.
He shook his head in his heart.
Just now, during the gap.
He had once raised his head and carefully sized up this young master of the empire who had suddenly appeared.
Although young.
However, his body was full of aura and his body was straight.
Especially that pair of slightly narrowed eyes.
A bone-chilling gaze shot out.
He was only glanced at.
He felt the blood in his body turn cold.
County Magistrate Zhao Jie had been in the officialdom for decades.
He had read countless people and had his own way of observing their expressions.
He could tell at a glance that this was the Young Master of the Empire in front of him.
They were the most difficult characters to deal with.
He was determined and extremely cold.
He had great confidence in himself.
He would not be affected by others at all.
I'm the one who kills!
Yu Fu was finished!
County Magistrate Zhao Jie thought.
And as expected.
The next second, Ying Ziye sneered and slowly said,"
"County Lieutenant Zhao Jie, your crime is unforgivable. According to the laws of Great Qin, behead him as a warning to others.”
Hearing this, Zhang Han sighed in his heart.
However, he was quite impressed by Ying Ziye's boldness.
He immediately agreed.
Then, with lightning speed, he pulled out his saber.
Under the terrified gaze of the county captain, Yu Fu.
He cut off his head with a knife.
Instantly!
Blood splattered everywhere!
The surrounding people were all stunned.
He did not expect this young master to be so decisive.
Killing people just like that!
He didn't even blink!
Under everyone's dumbstruck gazes.
Ying Ziye then looked at the county magistrate Zhao Jie.
This time, the other party was shocked and hurriedly explained,
"Young Master, please allow me to report that I have only been in office for less than a few months. I really don't know the situation.
Besides, the military affairs in the county are not under my jurisdiction. Please examine it carefully!!”
His voice trembled and he was terrified.
He had just witnessed this young master's ruthless methods.
He was really afraid that Ying Ziye would kill him without distinguishing right from wrong.
Hearing this.
Ying Ziye's eyes were indifferent, making it hard to guess what he was thinking.
After a long time, when Zhao Jie felt his hair stand on end, he said,
"Since that's the case, I'll spare you from the death penalty.
However, you can't escape the crime of oversight. Men, whip fifty times!”
"Yes!"
A few armored soldiers heard the order and immediately went forward to drag Zhao Jie away.
Not long after, a scream was heard.
Ying Ziye didn't pay attention to them. Instead, he looked at the people kneeling on the ground and said in a clear voice,"
"Don't worry, I'll help you deal with the bandits on this mountain, so that you won't be disturbed by them anymore.”
Swoosh--
The commoners immediately became excited and thanked him with tears in their eyes,"
"Young Master, we are extremely grateful for your great kindness!”
Ying Ziye faintly nodded.
These were Great Qin's people, the foundation of the empire.
How could he just watch her suffer?
Moreover, just now.
The system notification sounded in his mind.
He received 10 contribution points.
It was obviously obtained from killing the county captain just now.
As such, he would not let this group of Chu survivors off the hook.
.........
He watched as Ying Ziye casually killed two officials who were running amok.
He could hear the people around him kneeling on the ground and letting out a tsunami of gratitude.
Yuji, who was watching quietly from the side.
He couldn't help but feel lost.
If the previous Ying Ziye was in her eyes…
If it was just his handsome appearance and refined temperament.
Then, at this moment, there was some light shining on everyone.
This made her feel a little confused.
However, he didn't know that it was because of the blessing of power!
One had to know that power was a man's best coat.
After wearing it, it was radiant and charming.
Men had talent and wealth, but no power.
It was like an unpolished gem.
In the end, it was still lacking a glimmer of light!
Just as she was in a daze.
On the other side.
In a hidden forest in the distance.
It was a woman with a graceful figure who was dressed in night clothes.
They were quietly watching the scene of Ying Ziye punishing the officials.
He also heard the other party's words about exterminating the bandits.
His eyes lit up.
He thought to himself, This is a good opportunity!
Then, her figure flashed.
He shuttled back and forth like a monkey.
He flew through the forest.
He flew towards the bandit nest on the mountain.
