Chapter 188 The Remnants of the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion (Subscription Request)
"Marquis Jingping, you are such a shameless person."
"I was so blind that I believed your lies!"
Baili Hao, the chief steward of the Earl of Zhongyong, roared.
He is a great master of the eighth level of Yuandan, and Earl Zhongyong even gave him the name "Bai Li Hao".
The main cultivation method of the Loyal and Brave Marquis' Mansion is "Yellow Sand Hundred Battles Sutra", and the lower-level cultivation method is "Bloody Battle Method", so even though Baili Hao's Yuandan was sealed, he still cursed with full energy.
I wish I could eat the flesh of Marquis Jingping and sleep on his skin.
When Chu Wujiang and the other two heard the roar, their eyes all turned to Marquis Jingping.
A few days ago, Marquis Jingping pointed at Longjiang and swore that he would write to the court to seek justice for Earl Zhongyong, and now the result is out.
The crime of treason will punish all nine generations of the family.
How could Baili Hao not regret it so much? If he had fought hard at the beginning, he could at least take away a bunch of people and cause heavy losses to the Jingping Marquis Mansion.
Now, he has been captured and his Yuandan has been sealed, leaving him without even a chance to resist.
Marquis Jingping remained calm and composed, and sighed:
"Bai Lihao, you misunderstood me."
"I did write a letter to seek justice and submitted it to the court. But the evidence was irrefutable."
"I am also powerless."
Marquis Jingping was not afraid of ghosts knocking on his door, and he did not promise to let the Baili family go. He just said that he would write a letter to seek justice.
I have submitted a petition to the court to seek justice, but unfortunately the court did not listen.
Marquis Jingping dared to swear by Longjiang on martial arts, so he would naturally not leave any loopholes to harm himself.
Baili Hao was the steward of the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion. Now that they were at loggerheads, he immediately started to curse:
"You fart!"
"Marquis Jingping, you are worse than a pig or a dog, a despicable and shameless slut..."
"You clearly said..."
Silly, I am so stupid that I actually believed the promise of such a person.
When Baili Hao thought of that day, regret welled up in his stomach like a surging river. He only hated his parents for not giving him two mouths to feed. He cursed this old dog before he died.
"I understand your regret, but I am not the one who harmed the Baili family."
"You should know who the enemy is."
"Who is the one who left the Loyal and Brave Marquis' Mansion to its doom?"
Marquis Jingping listened to these filthy insults with calmness.
Chu Wujiang couldn't help but admire him when he saw this. His father-in-law was indeed an extraordinary person. He could take such insults lightly.
Baili Hao was not convinced, but became even angrier:
"I curse your Lu family to die miserably..."
"If you can curse someone to death, there will be no noble people in this world."
Marquis Jingping still spoke slowly.
He doesn't need to bother with the dead, not to mention that Baili Hao's Yuandan is at the eighth level and is also a very valuable asset.
Marquis Jingping has already prepared to make Baili Hao's Yuandan into a precious weapon and give it to his daughter as a dowry. Wouldn't that be wonderful?
Baili Hao didn't expect the other party to be so shameless, and it was useless to scold him.
"you……"
Seeing that Baili Hao was tired of scolding, Marquis Jingping spoke up:
"Okay, I have good news for you."
"I am here to save the Baili family, lest their bloodline be cut off completely and the ancestors of the Baili family be deprived of blood for food."
Baili Hao raised his head and cursed:
"How could a bastard like you be so kind?"
Jingping Hou smiled slightly:
"Who else can you trust besides me?"
"Here is Lord Longcheng and Prefect Liu to testify that I am indeed here to rescue people."
At the beginning, Chu Wujiang wanted to call his father-in-law because he also had to consider the feelings of Marquis Jingping. If a few people from the Marquis Zhongyong's Mansion could really survive, would he retaliate in the future?
As a result, Jingping Hou smiled and said:
"Don't worry, Lord Longcheng, he still has to thank me."
As expected, Baili Hao's face changed and he quickly looked at other people with suspicion and vigilance.
Chu Wujiang knew that after the white-faced role was over, it was his turn to play the red-faced role.
He said loudly:
"Marquis Jingping is right. This time the merman army is coming with great momentum."
"Although the Baili family has committed serious sins, they are still descendants of the human race."
"I am appointed as the commander of Longzhou, in charge of the Longzhou Coastal Defense Force. This time, we will set up a chariot punishment battalion to fight against the merman army."
"If you have made meritorious contributions, you can reduce your sentence according to the severity of your sin, or pardon some of the old, young, women and children."
Baili Hao's eyes suddenly brightened, but he was deceived once, so he would doubt whether he would be deceived a second time. "Don't even think about deceiving me again."
Jingping Hou said coldly:
"I'm not lying to you, because you won't be pardoned."
"The male descendants of the Loyal and Brave Marquis's House must be exterminated. This is the imperial court's decree to exterminate the clan."
"I won't let any of the Yuan Dan realm masters go."
Baili Hao didn't believe it at first, but after Jingping Hou said this, Baili Hao believed it a little more.
"Is this true?"
Marquis Jingping said:
"Originally, all the women in the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion were sent to the Music Academy."
"The commander is willing to show mercy and take me as a slave to serve you. This is the only way out for the Baili family."
Prefect Liu also added:
"indeed so."
"Lord Longcheng has made an unparalleled contribution. It won't be a problem for him to bless some women in the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion."
The Tianming Dynasty mainly followed Confucianism in its ritual system.
Prefect Liu was not a bloodthirsty person. From a practical point of view, the women from the Earl of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion would have been sent to the music school, and Chu Wujiang would have redeemed them, which was also a feasible route.
Now he was just threatening the Duke of Zhongyong to kill them all and then doing them a favor.
Chu Wujiang said in a deep voice:
"You can choose to refuse, or convince others in the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion."
"By joining the disciplinary camp, they have a chance to clear their children's names and give them a chance to live."
"If you refuse, you will be guillotined tomorrow."
On the third day of the Ghost Festival, some ghosts and monsters still appeared, but it was not difficult for warriors and nobles from all over the place to suppress them.
However, large-scale executions of criminals are still relatively taboo.
Baili Hao discovered sadly that he had no conditions for negotiation.
Chu Wujiang and others came to him specifically to further weaken the will of resistance of the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion.
The leaders surrendered, and the rest of the people surrendered with peace of mind.
If he doesn't agree, there will be no hope.
"I agreed."
"Very good, the bloodline of the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion will not be completely cut off."
Baili Hao said bitterly:
"I should have tried my best at that time."
If anyone could escape, he would never agree to such humiliating conditions.
"Now I am willing to persuade the people of the Marquis' Mansion to enter the punishment camp."
"Bai Lihao, don't worry, there are other things to do."
Chu Wujiang was very satisfied with this attitude.
But he came here not only for the human resources of the Duke of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion, but also to find out the issues concerning Chu's father and mother.
Baili Hao is the chief steward of Zhongbo Mansion, perhaps he knows something.
"Prefect Liu, please arrange a secret room. I have something to ask him."
According to regulations, Baili Hao is a serious criminal and cannot be interrogated independently or see outsiders.
But when Chu Wujiang gave the order, Governor Liu immediately had a flexible bottom line and quickly responded:
"No problem, I'll arrange it right away."
Chu Wujiang nodded:
"Qiu Shui, the people from the Loyal and Brave Marquis' Mansion are left to you. You can choose."
Huo Qiushui nodded:
"Please don't worry, my lord."
Jingping Hou couldn't help but secretly said:
[This Shunyi Lord clearly knew that his daughter had the physique of a beautiful woman causing trouble, but he secretly wanted to send his daughter to his son-in-law. How shameless. ]
[How should I remind my son-in-law to be aware of the Huo family's conspiracy? ]
Just as Marquis Jingping was troubled by Qiu Shui, Chu Wujiang successfully brought the court criminal to a secret room and asked:
"Bai Lihao, is the death of my late father and mother related to the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion?"
