Chapter 276 - Punishment of Corrupt Officials 1

As soon as his voice fell, the people began to talk amongst each other about the County Magistrate and Grand Master, and started to count the evil deeds they had done against the common people.

”Zhou County Order, do you have anything else to say?” Xiao Qingqian's voice was as cold as a blade, and the light in his eyes was filled with killing intent.

The Zhou County Order shrank back and pointed at the Grand Master, ”The Prince Chu is very clear, this is all under the Grand Master's control!”

Now that a great disaster was about to befall, the Zhou County Order could no longer care about his brother-in-law.

The Grand Master was not someone who would suffer a loss. Hearing this, he naturally began to recount the matters of the Zhou County Order, and also told them many things that no one knew.

Zhou County Order was so angry that his face turned green, ”You bastard, it was in vain that I treated you well everyday!”

”If you really treat me well, why would you push everything onto me?”

Seeing that the Master and the Zhou County Order were about to start fighting again, Xiao Qingqian took out his sword from his waist and looked at them coldly, causing the red color on the Zhou County Order's and the Master's faces to disappear.

”Stop!” Wei Qing suddenly pressed down on Xiao Qingqian's hand.

Xiao Qingqian frowned, and looked at her.

Wei Qing said in a low voice: ”This time you should be in forbidden zone, and yet you brought me out of the capital. If you don't get the king's permission now, you will be executed first and then played after. The princes and sons of princes will definitely catch you! ”

He curled the corner of his mouth. It seemed that Wei Qing was still concerned about him!

This smile made Wei Qing's heart tighten.

Wei Qing smiled and crooked his little finger at him as he approached with furrowed brows.

Master and the Zhou County Order were anxious, they raised their ears, wanting to hear something. However, even though they had tried very hard, they still couldn't hear anything.

After Wei Qing finished speaking, she looked at the two of them with interest.

Xiao Qingqian said coldly, ”The two of you are in the same place as fish, so you deserve to be sentenced to death!”

The Zhou County Order was shocked and fell to the ground like a pile of mud.

The master was also not in a good mood, he continuously kowtowed towards Xiao Qingqian, begging him to take note that he was just a master, and was willing to return all the money he had plundered over the years, hoping that Xiao Qingqian would show mercy.

Xiao Qingqian did not reply for a long time.

Wei Qing hurriedly said: ”There's an ancient saying: 'The first thing you do is kill people.'. If Grand Master can really return all of the cream he had collected over the years, then we can consider sparing his life! ”

Xiao Qingqian frowned, looking to be deep in thought.

The Grand Preceptor hastily exhaled. ”This commoner thanks wangfei for her request!”

Xiao Qingqian's cold and solemn gaze shifted onto the face of the person who spoke. The person shuddered and quickly lowered his head.

Seeing the Grand Master say that, Zhou County Order anxiously decided to return everything back to the citizens, hoping that Xiao Qingqian would be merciful.

Xiao Qingqian pondered for a moment, ”Alright, I will wait here for today, I would like to see how you all treat yourselves!”
