My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?.

Chapter 1024: After killing them, they can no longer kill us! We love to obey the law the most in our lives!
Ying Chengjiao kicked him again, angrily scolding him: "If you really want to thank me for my kindness, you shouldn't do such a beastly thing!"

"And you guys!"

Ying Chengjiao looked at those old subordinates who had not yet been greeted by Ying Chengjiao, with murderous intent in his eyes: "You guys, are you so clean?"

"Do you think you can stand on the dry shore innocently?"

"Do you think that the scouts under my command are old?"

"Do you think my sword is no longer effective?"

"Canglanglang~" Following Ying Chengjiao's four consecutive shouts, thousands of family soldiers drew their swords at their waists, their eyes wide open with anger!

This is the deterrence from the strongest combat power of this era!
This is a question from the greatest killer god of all time!

"Oh!"

There was a muffled sound, and Bao Ping was surprised to find that the world in front of him suddenly moved up a few inches. He looked down and found that he was already kneeling on the ground.

Turning his eyes to the left and right, Bao Ping saw dozens of people kneeling on the ground like him!
That’s right, who among you here has a clean background?
Everyone is guilty!

Chang Chao's legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground. He knew very well that he and his people's backgrounds were not so clean.

But thinking of Ying Chengjiao's cordial greeting just now, Chang Chao staggered two steps and then stood up again tremblingly, and helped Ju Ang up.

Ying Chengjiao did not look at the embarrassed looks of Ju Ang, Chang Chao and the others. He just looked at those who were still standing with a cold gaze: "Do the rest of you need my personal order?"

Suddenly, a group of people knelt down in front of Ying Chengjiao like they were cutting wheat!
Only a few people like Tang Min and Zhai Rang were still holding up their legs, and even though they were trembling with fear, they did not kneel down.

Even though they had a shady past, Ying Chengjiao wouldn't use Qin's laws to convict Qi, right?

They have been cowardly for several months since King Jian of Qi surrendered, but now they finally dare to stand up!

Ying Chengjiao walked forward slowly, grabbed Bao Ping by the neck and lifted him up, frowning and angrily scolding: "You just made a minor mistake, why are you kneeling!"

Even though Bao Ping was picked up by Ying Chengjiao himself, his thighs and legs were still trembling, but his heart was filled with deep gratitude for surviving the disaster.

That’s right, compared to other large families, their branch can indeed be considered clean!
Ying Chengjiao picked up his old subordinates and leaders one by one, and finally looked coldly at the dozens of people who were still kneeling on the ground and asked: "What are you going to do next? Do you still need me to teach you?"

"Confess your guilt! Present your evidence!"

"If you tell the truth, I will spare your people's death for the sake of our past friendship."

"You can resist stubbornly, and I am willing to test whether my soldiers are old or not!"

Looking up at Ba Fu and the others who were eager to try, all the people kneeling on the ground hurriedly bowed their hands and said, "Thank you, Lord Chang'an, for your kindness!"

"We will confess our crimes truthfully!"

They knew very well that if there were any crimes that had not been reported, they would be discovered by Ying Chengjiao's subordinates.

Then they will be in trouble!
They had no doubt that the final result of their stubborn resistance would be nothing more than thousands more slice specimens in the dissection room of the Daqin Military Academy!

More than thirty people tumbled over the pens and papers and racked their brains to write down all the crimes they and their clansmen had committed, ranging from conspiracy to rebellion to beating servants in the mansion, for fear of missing even one.

Ying Chengjiao did not pay them any more attention. He turned to look at Ju Ang and others who were trembling with fear behind him and asked in a deep voice: "Commendations!"

"Are you still willing to lead the way for me?"

Upon hearing this, Ju Ang, Chang Chao and the others immediately perked up and shouted, "We are willing to fight to the death for our commander!"

Ying Chengjiao nodded slightly and ordered in a deep voice: "Eighth husband! Guafu!"

The family soldiers immediately stepped forward and handed the thirty-two volumes of Chang'an paper to the thirty-two old subordinates.

Ying Chengjiao continued, "All those you hold are suspected of being guilty."

Looking at the words "Chai Lue" on the cover of the booklet, Ju Ang said without hesitation: "I will gather the young and strong men in the tribe and kill this rat for the commander-in-chief!"

Ying Chengjiao glared at him: "In the Qin Dynasty, we forbid free judgment, and all punishments must be based on evidence!"

"How can we convict someone based on mere suspicion?"

"Moreover, none of you have passed the test of law officers. You are not our Great Qin law officers, nor are you our Great Qin generals. You have no right to kill people at will!"

Ju Ang was a little confused.

Not killing people?
Then what do you want us to do?
Ying Chengjiao said seriously: "You should distinguish the truth from the false, find the evidence, protect the witnesses, and submit all the evidence to me."

"Once I have determined that the evidence is solid and that he is guilty, you can then send him to the authorities."

After a pause, Ying Chengjiao smiled and said, "According to Qin law, if a criminal with a serious crime is arrested and brought to the government, he will be rewarded according to his merits."

Hearing this, Ju Ang and others began to breathe faster.

There were more than 500 adults in the Chailue tribe, and more than a thousand servants who were accomplices of the enemy.

If we could collect all these heads, how much merit would we gain!
Although it is difficult to get promoted or be awarded a high title based solely on achievements, they can divide these achievements among multiple sons, so that at least ten of them can reach the doctor class of the Qin Dynasty!

How could Ying Chengjiao ask them to be the vanguard?

Ying Chengjiao was clearly giving them credit!
As expected, the commander-in-chief was thinking about us comrades in his heart. As long as we are worthy of Chang'an Jun, Chang'an Jun will not give up on us! With full gratitude in their hearts, Ju Ang and others bowed their hands together: "I will not fail you!"

Ying Chengjiao nodded gently: "Good."

"This should be done as soon as possible. You are all my old subordinates. You should follow the military practice of reporting at any time and obeying orders. There is no need for me to remind you again."

"If you are defeated, please inform me immediately and I will lead the soldiers of Linzi County to come to your aid!"

Knowing that Ying Chengjiao was still willing to cover for them, Ju Ang and the others felt more at ease and hurriedly bowed again: "Thank you, Commander!"

After responding to the order, Ju Ang and others quickly dispersed and returned, determined to gather all the young and strong men in the tribe as soon as possible to seize the wealth that belonged to them.

The leaders of various forces were even more jealous. Tang Min couldn't help but stepped forward and flattered, "Lord Chang'an!"

"My son Tang Ju is also serving under Lord Chang'an, and was the first to defect to the Qin Dynasty."

"The gratitude and respect that the Tang family showed to Lord Chang'an, and their loyalty to the Qin Dynasty, are absolutely true."

"If Lord Chang'an needs anything, everyone in the Tang family is willing to go through fire and water for Lord Chang'an, without hesitation!"

Since there are so many powerful people in Qi, we can just kill more of them!

After you kill them, you won’t be able to kill us!

Zhai Rang also hurried over and said, "Lord Chang'an! I am willing to identify..."

Before Zhai Rang could finish, Ying Chengjiao raised his right hand to suppress Zhai Rang's subsequent words, and sighed softly, "Do you think I like to kill people?"

Everyone: ? ? ?
You don't like killing people, but you have killed a lot!
Ying Chengjiao sighed again: "You all know that my actions are not in accordance with Qin law."

"If I could not tolerate these villains' actions to disrupt our Great Qin and harm our people, I would never do this."

"After this incident, I will return to Xianyang immediately to be questioned by the king. I may even be punished by the king for this."

Everyone:…

If Chang'an Jun only acted in Linzi, it would not be illegal. After all, Linzi was Chang'an Jun's fiefdom. Chang'an Jun even had the right to formulate laws unique to Linzi within the framework of Qin law, just like the Qin State to the Zhou Emperor.

However, Chang'an Jun's action this time was obviously not aimed at Linzi City alone, but at the entire ancient Qi area, which was an illegal act.

But! Lord Chang'an, you said that you would return to Xianyang City immediately after this incident. Would you like the King of Qin to punish you for this crime?
Who believes it!
You sound so nervous and fearful, as if you, Lord Chang'an, don't need to escort the candidates back to Xianyang City immediately after the imperial examination!

Ying Chengjiao continued, "Therefore, unless the crime is extremely serious, there is no need to report it to me."

"You may inform the censors of the various counties of what you wish to report."

"This is also a merit."

Everyone: (▽｀)
Hearing this, all the ancient Qi people finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The implication of this sentence is very obvious. After killing Yu Gui and others, Chang'an Jun was ready to sheath his sword.

After Chang'an Jun killed Yu Gui and others, he really doesn't plan to kill us anymore!

Fearing that Ying Chengjiao would go back on his word, Tang Min and the others quickly nodded in agreement: "It should be so! It should be so!"

"What Chang'an Jun is teaching is that our Great Qin has its own laws, and we should abide by them. Even if we have good intentions, we must not break the law!"

"Don't worry, Lord Chang'an. We will report all the lawbreakers we know of to the Censor-in-Chief, and we will restore order to Qi County!"

As soon as Zhai Rang said this, everyone's eyes turned to Zhai Rang.

Chang'an Jun has already put his sword back into its sheath, and you still want to stab me in the back?!
Zhai Rang's expression was very calm. Chang'an Jun had indeed returned the sword to its sheath, but Zhai had just said that he would bring charges. If the charges were to be withdrawn just because Chang'an Jun had returned the sword to its sheath... do you think that Chang'an Jun could not draw his sword again after returning it?

Seeing that Zhai Rang had no guilty conscience, Tang Min and the others gritted their teeth and immediately cupped their hands: "We will definitely monitor the local area well and help the Supervisor of the Imperial Censor!"

After Zhai Rang made it clear that he would continue with the accusation, all parties were once again left with no choice.

Ying Chengjiao was indeed ready to sheath his sword, but Qi Diaoli, Can Zi and others hadn't started yet!
In order to avoid becoming the chicken used as a warning to the monkey, they can only protect themselves at all costs!

Ying Chengjiao showed a satisfied smile: "Very good!"

"I know that you will live up to my expectations and trust!"

"The examination papers of the imperial examination candidates have not yet been reviewed. I have to go back and continue reviewing them."

"I will trouble you all to punish the wicked and eliminate the evil, and to relieve the worries of the imperial court!"

After he finished speaking, Ying Chengjiao bowed to everyone.

Taking with him the written charges of crimes by Yu Gui and others, and taking Ying Fusu and a thousand family soldiers with him, Ying Chengjiao returned to his former Qi royal city.

The gates of the royal city were locked again, as if everything that had just happened was a lie.

Ying Chengjiao held up the indictment written by Yu Gui, smiled and looked at Ying Fusu and said, "Look."

"The evidence is conclusive!"
