Chapter 12 Public Trial

Humanity’s fate has been swallowed up?

What is the origin of this golden corpse pill!? It can even swallow luck?

Immediately, luck returned and a trace of purple energy merged into Lin Xiuyuan's soul.

"this……"

Lin Xiuyuan was shocked. He found that his soul had some signs of recovery. Although it was only a trace, it was definitely not an illusion.

Humanity and luck, what a good thing!

Lin Xiuyuan came through time travel, and his soul was severely damaged and difficult to repair. If he could swallow a large amount of human luck, his soul might be able to return to its peak state in a short time.

In this way, we must gather more people's hearts, and the most direct way to gather people's hearts is to improve people's livelihood.

As an old man who has been practicing Buddhism for thousands of years, Lin Xiuyuan knows many ways to improve people's livelihood and economy, such as glass manufacturing, saltpeter ice making, bank account making, iron and steel smelting, and even firearms and cannons, etc., all of which are extremely profitable.

industry.

Especially bank accounts, iron and steel smelting, firearms and cannons...anything can change the pattern of this era.

It’s just that the time has not come yet and needs to be carefully considered.



In an old house in the city, two figures met secretly.

"Feng Yin pays homage to your lord."

"Stop talking nonsense, you must have heard about the three major aristocratic families, right? Is this the smart prince you are talking about? The three major aristocratic families are not that simple. In addition to the Scarlet Demon Sect and Incense Sect, there are also hidden sects and Lian Zhen involved.

It’s hard for King Nan to touch them!”

"Sir, the prince doesn't seem to be a reckless person. Maybe he has other plans."

Chen Wenyan couldn't help but smile bitterly. The prince had only been in Dazhou City for one day, but he already broke the news. I'm afraid their life would not be easy in the future.

"Oh? What do you think?"

"Since the prince is having a public trial with great fanfare, he must be fully confident. Maybe we can take this opportunity to do something."

"How to make trouble?"

"My lord, please don't forget my identity."

"You're a useless scholar with a shitty identity." The man in black glared angrily.

"Sir, don't look down on scholars. Sometimes scholars kill people, and their writing is as sharp as a knife, and every word is as sharp as a knife. We can secretly build momentum for the prince and make those children of aristocratic families notorious, and the three major aristocratic families will be passive." Chen Wenyan looked confident.

appearance.

"Bah! You scholars are so thoughtful."

The man in black cursed angrily, but he had to admit that this method was really good.

Once the prince has great righteousness, he will be in an invincible position. No matter King Zhennan or the three major aristocratic families, they will not dare to attack the prince easily, unless they really intend to break up with King Yan.

It must be said that the Secret Code Camp has been operating in Dazhou City for many years and has many information channels at its disposal.

In just half an hour, various news circulated in the market, all of which were about the evildoings of the three great families.

Bullying men and dominating women, being violent and violent, being greedy and amassing money, being unkind for the sake of wealth, and full of evil.

One or two evil deeds may not be nothing, but if ten or hundreds of evil deeds come together, it is a serious sin.

The emotions of the people were aroused, gradually arousing resentment throughout the city.



The next morning, the sky was slightly bright.

Outside the county government square was crowded and bustling, at least tens of thousands of people.

Whether they believe it or not, they all want to know if the new city lord really dares to kill the children of the famous family.

But then again, it seems that the new city lord has not officially taken office yet? With such a big battle, aren't you afraid of counterattack by the three major families?

"Boom!"

"Dong dong, dong dong——"

The drum of grievance suddenly sounded, and the emotions of the people rose accordingly.

"It's coming, it's really coming!"

"Those are the Young Master of the Yang family and his clan brothers. I recognize them even when they turned into ashes."

"There are also the young masters of the Zhou family and the young masters of the Shen family! Their legs were broken, what a cruel method!"

"Good and evil will be rewarded in the end, and they all deserve it!"

"The new city lord is so brave!"

There was an uproar around him, and many people were even more excited and clapped their hands and applauded.

Immediately, under the shocked eyes of everyone, thirty Jindan guards dragged more than ten children from aristocratic families to the center of the square, waiting for everyone's trial.

Yes, they were dragged here.

The children of these aristocratic families, including three young masters, had their legs and feet broken. They were wearing disheveled hair and prison uniforms, looking like they were in a state of despair.

They have been aloof since childhood, how have they ever suffered such humiliation?

Feeling the pointing eyes around me was a double blow both mentally and physically.

"How dare!? How dare they!"

People from the three major aristocratic families also came. When they saw the scene where the children of the aristocratic families were being humiliated, their eyes were splitting and their whole bodies were shaking with anger.

However, they kept in mind the instructions of the family master, not to take the initiative or leave any evidence. As long as they survived the public trial, they could turn their back on the guests and take revenge on the Crown Prince of Northern Yan.

"Wait a minute——"

Amidst the shouting, three figures hurriedly came, it was He Tongfu, Lu Mao, and Huang Ji. Not only did they come, they also brought many government guards and soldiers, which frightened the surrounding people into retreating. Unfortunately, Fengwei camp could not move at all.

Unmoved.

"You, you are going too far!"

"This is Dazhou City, not a barbarian land. Even if they are guilty, they should be investigated first. How can you abuse lynching?!" Although He Tongfu is not a cultivator, as an official of the imperial court, he has the protection of his official body and is not afraid at all.

The coercion of the cultivators turned out to be righteous and awe-inspiring.

Cultivators are superior to mortals, but they cannot be superior to dynasties. Many ancient sects even seclude themselves from the world for fear of suppression by the imperial army.

As soon as Huang Ji waved his hand, thousands of soldiers surrounded the Fengwei camp, and the two sides were at war with each other.

The crossbow in the hands of the soldiers is not an ordinary weapon, but the notorious "God-Destroying Crossbow". This is a crossbow made of special materials, with dense formation runes engraved on it.

Can shoot.

"Three gentlemen, what a great official power."

Lin Xiuyuan walked slowly and glanced at the soldiers around him, but did not take them seriously.

Lin Xiuyuan was accompanied by Lingxin and Yuan Yishan, and even Nie Yunzhu came with her this time. After all, she was not at ease if she was left alone in the city lord's mansion.

People around him were talking a lot, some were surprised, some were curious, and some were gloating about his misfortune.

This was the first time for many people to see Lin Xiuyuan. They did not expect that the new city lord, the legendary dandy prince, would be so young.

"Come and salute."

Lin Xiuyuan turned over his hand and took out a gold seal, which was the official seal representing the identity of the city lord. This seal was blessed by the luck of the dynasty and was difficult to imitate by outside forces.

"Your Majesty, let me pay my respects to the Lord of the City."

He Tongfu and the others looked ugly, but they had no choice but to step forward and salute.

In officialdom, disrespecting etiquette is a taboo.

Previously, the prince had not entered the city and was not considered the city lord, so they could naturally ignore him. But now that Lin Xiuyuan showed the city lord's golden seal, they could not go over it, otherwise they would break the rules of the officialdom.

In fact, even though Lin Xiuyuan was causing so much trouble in the past two days, he was acting within the rules, and even He Tongfu and others couldn't tell him what was wrong.

"You also know that I am a subordinate? I am reluctant to scold these guards, so who do you think they are?"

Lin Xiuyuan cursed unceremoniously, making He Tongfu and the others tremble with anger.

They can't win after being beaten, scolded and scolded, but the official status is still higher than them, which is very uncomfortable.

"City Lord, these children from aristocratic families have special status, why don't we think about it from a long-term perspective?" He Tongfu was, after all, too cunning to fall out with Lin Xiuyuan directly, so he could only persuade him tactfully.

However, Lin Xiuyuan did not intend to give He Tongfu face and ordered people to continue beating the drum.

"I am the new city lord of Dazhou City. I was assassinated by the rebels the day before yesterday. This group of thieves came again yesterday to assassinate them. They were really rampant. Fortunately, I have expert guards around me to suppress them..."

"But some people say that these assassins are descendants of the three major families. Maybe there is some misunderstanding."

"Well, it would be a mistake to kill an innocent person and wrongly accuse a good person. I am here to hold a public trial today. The guilty will be questioned and the innocent will be released."

Before Lin Xiuyuan finished speaking, the surroundings suddenly boiled.

Good guy? Bah!

If the children of these aristocratic families were good people, then there would be no bad people in the world!

Of course, everyone wanted to think about it, but they really didn't dare to stand up and correct them. After all, the evil reputation of the three major aristocratic families was deeply rooted, and it was impossible to dispel their concerns with just a few words.

"Now, is anyone complaining?"

Lin Xiuyuan looked around, and the people all lowered their heads and did not dare to look at each other.

Unwilling to struggle, numb with pain.

This is the truest portrayal of the hearts of many people.

Lin Xiuyuan had seen all kinds of things in the world and naturally knew the people's mental state. Therefore, he was not in a hurry and just sat on the armchair brought by Nie Yunzhu and waited quietly.

There is only one opportunity missing now, and he believes that someone will always come forward.
