Your Majesty is short of money again

Chapter 361 The Rumor Spreader
"If I want to find out, it's not difficult. If I want to find out but don't admit it, then..." Qi Jingchen didn't say what he said next, but everyone knew what he meant.

If you don't admit it now, and let Qi Jingchen find out later, then the end will definitely be much worse than that rascal in the market.

Choose the lesser of two evils, even if you know that there will be no good end after admitting, you are more afraid of the unknown consequences.

In the end, a total of five people stood up and admitted that they were the first to spread the rumors, and all five of them were punks in the market.

Looking at the five people who stood up, the flames from Qi Jingchen's eyes seemed to swallow these five people directly.

The five knelt in front of Qi Jingchen tremblingly, their heads pressed against the cold ground.

"Who ordered you to spread rumors about the princess?" Qi Jingchen asked in a deep voice, suppressing his anger for a while.

"Yes, it's a girl..." With the lesson learned from the rascals in the market, these five people dared not hesitate to hide it.

"go on."

"That girl was wearing a veil. She was so small that I couldn't see her appearance clearly. However, this girl had a very good temperament, like a daughter of a thousand golds. But she was not the same as an ordinary daughter of a thousand golds."

"Yes, yes, this girl has a formidable aura, which is not easy to look at."

"Also, also, this girl has a faint smell of herbs."

Hearing this, Qi Jingchen's expression became more and more serious: "What else?"

The five of them racked their brains to recall the special features of the girl when they met that day.

"That girl has a good figure and is taller than ordinary girls."

"Oh, that girl's hair accessories are very simple, just two white jade hairpins."

Seeing Qi Jingchen's darkening face, Ye Xun roughly knew what Qi Jingchen was thinking. After thinking for a moment, he picked up the pen and paper at the side, quickly drew the appearance of two hairpins, put them in front of the five people, and asked, "You guys?" Are the hairpins you see these two?"

After looking carefully, several people nodded one after another: "Yes, it's these two."

"boom"

There was a sudden sound, and everyone trembled violently. They looked at Qi Jingchen with even more awe in their eyes.

The wooden table that was originally placed next to Qi Jingchen couldn't withstand Qi Jingchen's hammer with internal force, and it fell apart and turned into ashes.

The five people kneeling in front of Qi Jingchen even swallowed hard. Even if some sawdust floated on their faces and ears, causing the slightest itchiness, they didn't dare to raise their hands to scratch, for fear of being careless. If Qi Jingchen gets angry, he will become a pile of powder just like that table.

"Master, how do we deal with these people?" Even Ye Xun, facing Qi Jingchen who was on the verge of going berserk, felt a chill in his heart. It had been a long time since he had seen Qi Jingchen get angry like this.

"Take out the tongues of these five people, throw them out of the capital, and they will never be allowed to enter the capital. The rest will be slapped. Those who are officials will be demoted to the third class and sent to leave the capital. Before being a good official, you need to know what to do. How to manage your tongue." Qi Jingchen said coldly.

"Yes." Ye Xun clasped his fists in reply.

As soon as these words fell, the voice of begging for mercy sounded again in the cell, and Qi Jingchen cast a cold glance: "Whoever dares to beg for mercy will be beaten to death with a stick!"

With a sound, no one dared to say anything, and everyone dared not speak out.
