Translator: 549690339
His Majesty was furious and ordered me to take over the watchman Yamen to eliminate evil practices and punish those who abuse their power for personal gains.
Angry curses and shouts instantly exploded.
The night watchmen didn’t know who the Lushi family was, but it didn’t stop them from talking about it.
Lord Wei’s excessive accumulation of wealth?
In the entire Yamen, who didn’t know that Lord Wei was the most honest and just person? a commoner dared to accuse Lord Wei of misappropriating wealth and persecuting her family. Did she think that she was worthy?
Even if the Lord of Wei wanted to accumulate wealth, would he extort the people like an ordinary minor official?
The copper Gong and silver Gong were not stupid. They immediately realized that someone was trying to frame the Duke of Wei. And this person was most likely the Imperial censor of the right, Yuan Xiong.
He was the political enemy of Lord Wei.
“It’s too noisy!”
Yuan Xiong said indifferently.
Just as Zhao Jinluo was about to scold him, Zhu Yang took a step forward. The Qi of a level four master surged out. All of a sudden, the night watchmen on the scene could not stand steadily and their faces turned pale.
The clamor suddenly died down.
Yuan Xiong nodded in satisfaction. I have received a secret report, ” he said loudly. we will not tolerate those who are greedy and break the law. Next, those who have reported their names, step forward.
“Zhang Dongliang.” No one responded.
“Zhang Dongliang!”
There was no response, but the night watchman was silently resisting. Yuan Xiong didn’t say anything more and glanced at Zhu Yang.
The latter understood tacitly. His gaze had long locked onto a certain silver Gong in the crowd. He opened his arms, aimed his palm at that person, and suddenly grabbed.
A brawny man with a square face was forced to ” squeeze ” out of the crowd. His feet were on the ground, and the tips of his feet left two marks. He tried his best to resist, but he could only watch helplessly as he was pulled out.
Yuan Xiong smiled and said,”l’m following orders. Disobeying orders is the same as disobeying the Imperial edict.” The death penalty!”
Zhao Jinluo was afraid that Zhu Yang would attack first again, so she hurriedly grabbed Zhang Dongliang and cupped her fists.”My Lord, this brute has no intention of offending you. Please show mercy.”
Zhang Dongliang’s face turned purple and red, and the veins on his neck bulged. He growled in a deep voice,
“I’m not convinced. Zhao Jinluo, you don’t have to beg him. If Duke Wei was
still here, would Yuan Xiong dare to step into the Yamen? The other gongs are still there, but Zhu Yang has just returned? I only regret that I didn’t follow my boss to the battle that day. It’s a blessing for him to die in the Jing Mountain City with Duke of Wei. It’s better than me dying in the hands of my own people.”
“Lord Zhu, night watchmen have official positions. Their lives are all decided by His Majesty,” Yuan Xiong said lightly.
“Understood,” Zhu Yang nodded and chuckled.
He pulled Zhang Dongliang over and punched Yin Luo in the chest. The clothes on Zhang Dongliang’s back were torn apart.
Everyone heard the sound of a sternum breaking.
Zhang Dongliang slowly collapsed to the ground, barely breathing. A new official had three fires, and the first one was to burn this poor wretch.
“Qiang!”
The sound of a saber being drawn was heard. A silver Gong had drawn his saber.
Clang clang clang!
The surrounding Imperial Army soldiers drew their sabers, ready to suppress the night watchman at any time.
Zhu Yang squinted his eyes and took a step forward, intimidating the night watchmen with his fourth-grade martial artist status.
‘Everyone, stop!”
are you guys trying to rebel? ” Zhao Jinluo shouted. don’t you want your brains?
“Zhao Jinluo,”
“Boss …”
The night watchmen’s reaction was very intense.
can’t you tell? he’s trying to purge us. No matter if we’re guilty or not, we won’t have a good ending.
Zhao Jinluo, Lord Wei is no longer here. You are the only one in the Yamen who can make decisions for our brothers. You can’t be a dog for Yuan Xiong. “Boss, do you have the heart to see your brothers being framed?”
At least you guys can live … The veins on Zhao Jinluo’s forehead bulged as she said, “”Put … The … Knife … Away …”
The Watchmen’s hearts turned cold. They were angry, unwilling, and sorrowful, but they still refused to withdraw their sabers. “Your families are in the capital, right?” Yuan Xiong laughed.
It was a heart-killing!
The hiring condition for a night watchman was that at least three generations of his ancestors had to be from the capital and had a clean family background.
Why? It was to prevent these martial artists from breaking the rules with their strength.
Duke of Wei had died in battle, and the rest of the Golden gongs had either died in battle or had yet to return. Even if they wanted to resist, they had no one to back them up.
“If Xu ningyan was still here …” Someone mumbled in a low voice.
The Watchmen were dazed for a moment and couldn’t help but think of their colleague who had cut his waist token and was no longer an official.
That’s right, if Xu ningyan was still here, with the kindness that Duke of Wei had shown him, and his unyielding character, would Zhu Yang and Yuan Xiong still dare to be so arrogant?
Yuan Xiong and the others also heard it, but they didn’t respond, nor did they bother to respond.
Zhu chengzhu’s expression twisted.
Xu Qi ‘an, the lowly Gong from back then, was the main culprit who had destroyed his future.
He hated this person to the bone, but in just a short year, things had remained the same, but people had changed. That lowly Gong had become an important figure that he could not reach.
Even if Xu Qi ‘an had offended the Emperor, he was still not someone he could interfere with or take revenge on.
As a result, the flames of revenge burned in his heart, but he could not find an outlet to vent it. It burned his soul day by day, causing his heart to be slightly distorted.
“Li Yuchun!”
“Chu Honghe!” “Min mountain!”
“Tang Youde!”
One silver Gong after another stepped forward, their weapons removed, and their hands tied behind their backs. In the blink of an eye, almost half of the silver gongs were gone.
Those silver gongs were either expressionless, sneering, or spitting. There was no fear or begging for mercy.
There was no Gong on the list. As the lowest level of the night watchmen, Gong was usually not qualified to pick a side.
Of course, it didn’t mean that Yuan Xiong wouldn’t deal with them.
The high-spirited imperial censor of the right said in a clear voice, “”The night watchman’s Yamen has experienced a great change and there are many vacancies. I took over the Yamen at this time of crisis and happened to be short of people under me, so I need to promote loyal and good people..
