Mother, I have returned to the throne.

Chapter 185 Dog bites dog

Accompanied by Song Yuan's speech.

For a moment, everyone present turned pale and their bodies trembled.

Seeing him raise the knife, everyone present felt their hearts in their throats.

"and many more!"

Seeing that Song Yuan was about to make trouble, Guo Baishun's body shook, and he suddenly roared: "Your Highness, as the saying goes, you can die with your eyes open and hold grudges in your heart. You can kill me, but there are some things we must make clear today."

"I absolutely refuse to accept what this corrupt official said! You can kill me, but you can't frame me as a corrupt official. Otherwise, I won't be satisfied even if I die!"

"Yes, that's a good point!"

Song Yuan smiled and nodded.

This bastard has a really good mental state.

However, did he really think that what he said today was groundless?

How could I do such a thing if I didn't have any evidence?

Before this, Song Yuan had learned a lot about Guo Baishun's glorious deeds from the bandits who knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

Since this guy wants to act, I'd like to take a good look.

How long can he last facing his own methods?

"Master Guo, please get up quickly!"

After thinking about it, Song Yuan stepped forward, holding a knife in his hand, and pretended to help Guo Baishun up.

Just when everyone thought that this matter was over.

But unexpectedly, Song Yuan's tone changed.

"Master Guo, let's not discuss whether you are a corrupt official for now. In fact, the biggest reason why I called everyone here today is to invite you to watch a good show!"

"Clap clap..."

Song Yuan said, and clapped his hands.

The next second, Song Yuan's soldiers came forward, suppressing dozens of bandits.

What do you mean?

Does the prince want these people to correct him?

When Guo Baishun saw this scene, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

He just thought that what awaited him soon would be the condemnation of thousands of people.

But unexpectedly, Song Yuan suddenly waved his hand.

The next second, each of the skilled men drew out a long sword from their waist!

锔……

The long sword was unsheathed, its cold light flashing.

The movements of those men were even smoother than flowing water!

"Pfft..."

Accompanied by muffled sounds, a long knife was seen slashing across the neck.

All the bandits were beheaded on the spot.

Heads rolled and fell to the ground.

The blood spurted, dyeing the air around the scene bright red.

thump……

The officials of Lu'an County usually act tyrannically and have never seen such a cruel scene.

In an instant, many people fell to the ground.

My legs were weak and I couldn't stand up for a long time.

"Next team!"

But Song Yuan sneered and spoke slowly.

Killing these people is not the end.

Soon, a second wave of bandits was brought forward.

With the lessons learned from the previous incident, these people knelt down and begged for mercy.

"Your Majesty, please show some mercy and spare us!"

"Your Highness, I have an eighty-year-old mother above me and a wife and children below me. If you kill me, my whole family will be finished!"

"Your Highness, we were forced into this. If it weren't for these corrupt officials exploiting us everywhere, we wouldn't have to become bandits. If life were really good, who wouldn't want a wife and children and a warm bed?"

"Don't kill me, don't kill me..."

For a moment, there were sounds of begging for mercy and correction.

Surrounding each other, one after another.

The group of bandits were completely panicked. They never expected that Song Yuan had such a noble status.

He kills people without blinking an eye!

This person is simply an evil star, a living devil!

"continue!"

Song Yuan heard this voice, but was not moved at all.

He ordered coldly.

In his opinion, these bandits in front of him deserved to be killed.

There are so many evil things happening in the village. Even if they didn't participate in any of them, they are definitely accomplices!

Those who kill will always be killed.

From the moment they took action, they should have been prepared to die one day.

Forgiving them is not something you need to consider.

That is what Buddha should do!

"Do it!"

puff...

In an instant, blood spurted out.

Dozens more people died on the spot.

Against the backdrop of blood, Song Yuan looked like a god of death returning from the underworld.

This scene eventually broke the psychological defenses of many officials, and some were finally willing to speak out: "Your Highness, Your Highness, I confess, I confess everything..."

Led by a clerk, officials stood up one after another and listed Guo Baishun's evil deeds in front of Song Yuan.

In an instant, the wall collapsed like a landslide.

Guo Baishun instantly became a target of public condemnation.

"I said, last year, that villain Guo Baishun accepted 10,000 taels of black money from someone else and released a second-generation rich man who raped a common woman..."

"This guy has been seizing other people's land for two days and taking their wife as his concubine!"

"Guo Baishun is completely devoid of conscience. He embezzled the city's treasury and moved all the money into his own mansion. He truly deserves to die!"

All the crimes were exposed to the public at this moment.

Everyone spoke frankly, but when Guo Baishun heard these words, he became even more furious!

Today, in order to prevent any accidents, Guo Baishun brought his close confidants with him.

Every one of them participated in what was done before.

"How dare you criticize me? I'll tell you guys off. Which of you has a clean ass? I eat meat and you just follow behind to drink soup. What qualifications do you have to point fingers at me?"

"You're talking nonsense. We were forced by you!" An official had forgotten his previous attitude out of fear.

With his face flushed and his neck thick, he roared at Guo Baishun.

The scene became a mess!

"Yes, that's right, you forced us to do it. If we don't do it, you will do it to us!"

"Your Highness, you must be more discerning. The reason I colluded with this guy was to gather evidence. We have been waiting for you, the righteous judge, for a long time, just to have you do justice!"

"That's right, Your Highness. We were all forced into this. Guo Baishun is the mastermind!"

"Okay, okay, you guys are awesome! I'm really blind!"

Facing the criticism from thousands of people, Guo Baishun gritted his teeth and said, "Just wait, we're not done yet!"

As he spoke, Guo Baishun stiffened his neck and looked at Song Yuan, saying, "Your Highness, I admit that you had the means to carry out that farce just now, but I am an official appointed by the court and am under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Justice!"

"Even if you are a prince, you cannot sentence me on behalf of the Ministry of Justice. I made a mistake, but you have no right to convict me!"

"Hehehe!"

Seeing Guo Baishun's imminent death, Song Yuan still dared to be stubborn and sneered, "Master Guo, do you really think I dare not kill you?"

"That's right!" Guo Baishun said calmly, "I'm a fourth-rank official. According to the Qin Dynasty's official laws, only the Ministry of Justice has the authority to detain and punish me!"

"Your Majesty, if you really dare to kill me today, what do you think other officials will think of you?"

This little bastard, is using this to threaten me?

I'll just kill you, that's a bargain for you!

I'll see if I can kill you today!

Song Yuan originally planned to use the imperial sword to kill this guy directly.

But now, he has changed his mind.

"Everyone, follow me and retreat to the periphery!"

He suddenly stretched out his hand and gave an order to the people behind him.

As soon as these words were spoken, Situ Jing beside him suddenly lost his composure.

"What do you mean? Are you going to let these bastards go?"

"They have done so many bad things. If you don't dare, then I will do it!"

"Listen to me!" Song Yuan glared at Situ Jing fiercely and said these three words in a tone that left no room for questioning.

Situ Jing was slightly stunned.

Before she could respond, Ye Xuan behind her stepped forward and pulled Situ Jing back.

"Just watch. Haven't you seen what the prince is capable of?"

"Don't worry, just watch the show today, these guys are dead!"

After dealing with the troublemaker Situ Jing, the others naturally followed Song Yuan's lead.

Soon, Song Yuan and his men retreated to the periphery and formed a circle around the camp.

No one expected that he would suddenly give an order.

But the people he was talking to were not the officers and soldiers behind him, but the bandits who had been freed from their restraints and were now standing there with a bewildered look on their faces.

"What are you still standing there for? Didn't you say these officials forced you to do this? Prove it to me now! If you can prove it, I promise I'll let you go!"

As soon as these words were spoken, all the bandits were instantly excited.

He immediately turned his head and looked at the officials coldly.

"Damn it, kill these bastards!"

"kill!"

Soon, someone in the bandit group shouted loudly.

In just a moment, everyone rushed forward, and many people picked up stones and fought with the officials.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, I was wrong. I acknowledge my guilt. I acknowledge my guilt!"

During the fight, Guo Baishun begged for mercy from Song Yuan with a pleading look on his face.

At this moment, he was almost torn apart by life.

He cried out in pain in his heart, fearing that he would die on the spot.

It’s a pity, how could Song Yuan possibly get around him?

"Master Guo, please don't talk nonsense. I'm just a prince. How can I convict you?"

"Hold on! These bandits are really outrageous! I'll organize my troops and come to your aid!"

As Song Yuan spoke, he waved at his men.

The camp was surrounded more securely.

Seeing Song Yuan's actions, Situ Jing behind him laughed out loud.

This bastard is so insidious.

With just a few words, he made the group of people in front of him run around in circles.

But this time, it is a little different from before.

At least... being insidious is quite comforting!

This is truly satisfying!
