บรรณาธิการ: Henyee Translations
"Hey, little girl, do you have the right to speak?! If I say you're wrong, then you're definitely wrong! Don't talk nonsense!
Take her away!"
With a wave of his hand, his lackeys immediately rushed forward to capture her!
However, before the general could finish cursing, he saw the subordinates who had rushed towards Lin Suisui and wanted to forcefully detain her immediately fall to the ground in a sorry state.
The general didn't expect that something that seemed easy to handle would develop to this point.
He reached out and pushed the women away from him. He looked around in a panic and said angrily, "Who is it? Who's playing tricks here?!"
Come out. Hurry up and get out!"
"How authoritative!"
Pei Qian walked out of the camp with his hands behind his back. He still had the familiar smile on his face. He first glanced at Lin Suisui, who was unscathed, then at Lu Ze, who had already walked to Lin Suisui's side and protected her. Finally, his gaze landed on the pale-faced general.
"How impressive! You can actually bring yourself to kiss women of this caliber!" Pei Qian looked at his trembling hand on the knife at his waist in disdain and clicked his tongue. "Can you still hold a knife?!"
"Prince, please spare me. It's my…" The general no longer had the domineering and arrogant aura from before. He knelt in front of Pei Qian and kowtowed, as if begging for mercy. "It's my fault. It's my fault. Prince, please give me another chance. I definitely won't dare to do it again!"
"There will be a next time?" Pei Qian raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a slow smile, "It wasn't easy for me to manage the refugees who came from the capital, but you caused trouble on the first day you came!
Originally, I wanted to give you a chance!
However, the law is merciless! Since I have already set the rules, I can't change the rules so many times, right?
Those who rob people for no reason will be killed according to the rules. As for those who neglect their duties, they will get beaten by the military cane 100 times! If you can survive it, I can give you a chance to turn over a new leaf!"
He didn't bother to think about it anymore. He just raised his hand and gestured for Qian He to carry out the order.
When he heard that he was going to be punished, the general instantly broke down. He struggled crazily as he begged for mercy, but Qian He was quite fast. Before he could howl, the people following him gagged and dragged him away.
"Wait!"
Before Qian He could take two steps, he heard a shout. He looked in the direction of the voice and saw a man wearing a jade crown and a purple luxurious robe. He was surrounded by a group of people.
Lin Suisui could clearly feel Lu Ze's body tense up as soon as this person appeared. Although this was hidden very quickly, because she was close, she could still clearly feel the influence this person had on Lu Ze.
Or rather, Lu Ze hated this person!
Therefore, Lin Suisui looked up curiously and sized up this person. He was quite elegant, but his vain look made it obvious that…
He was just a vase!
"Du Yuanruo, why are you here?!"
Obviously, Lu Ze wasn't the only one who hated this person. Pei Qian didn't seem to have a good attitude towards this person either. It could even be said that he looked at this person with even more disdain than when he looked at the general just now.
It was as if he was looking at trash!
"Crown Prince Pei, you and I have both received the emperor's order to settle the refugees! Now that you're killing indiscriminately, don't I have the right to ask?!"
He wasn't afraid of Pei Qian at all.
The Third Prince was his cousin! When his cousin became the Crown Prince, so what if this guy in front of him was the prince of the Ning Yuan Marquis? Wouldn't he still have to kneel down and lick his shoes?!
"They snatched other people's belongings and caused trouble for no reason. If we don't get rid of such black sheep, should we continue to allow them to harm others at the base?!" Pei Qian didn't take Du Yuanruo seriously at all. He only glanced at Qian He and saw him quickly dragging those people down.
Du Yuanruo was furious. He pointed at Pei Qian and was speechless for a long time. After a long time, he said hatefully, "Alright, alright! Just you wait!"
With that, he flicked his sleeve and left angrily with his subordinates!
Pei Qian didn't stay long. Not long after Du Yuanruo left, he turned around and returned to the camp.
After everyone left, Lu Ze turned to look at Lin Suisui. "Let's go. I'll accompany you around."
Lin Suisui nodded. She had a bunch of questions to ask him.
"You know that person… How can you not know him?!" Lin Suisui felt that this question was a little ridiculous. She shook her head and changed her words. She continued to say to Lu Ze, "Is that person very annoying?!"
"He eats, drinks, and gambles. In short, he's the worst!" Lu Ze clicked his tongue and didn't hide anything from Lin Suisui. He simply revealed this fellow's dark history and said, "Moreover, this person is vengeful. This time, he suffered at Pei Qian's hands. It will definitely be difficult for him to touch Pei Qian, but he might think of looking for others to take revenge."
"Then I won't run out after we set up camp. Anyway, we still have food now. We'll talk about it again after this period of time passes!" Lin Suisui nodded. To be honest, she didn't want to cause trouble now. She wanted to avoid trouble as much as possible.
"No, it's just that you can come out with me every day from now on." Lu Ze thought about it and didn't agree to her suggestion.
It was impossible to understand those filthy people, so the safest way was to bring her along.
"Moreover, from the looks of it, he probably won't be able to stay here for long. If Pei Qian can't even deal with him, all these years of being the Minister of Justice will be in vain!"
Lu Ze was very confident in Pei Qian.
Although he wasn't a good person, he was at least a formidable opponent, but Du Yuanruo…
"Actually, I really don't understand. Sending refugees to the north and living in the wilderness for such a long time can't be considered a lucrative job, right? Why do these nobles, who sound like they're from the royal family, all want to get involved in this mess?" Lin Suisui frowned, really puzzled.
