Favouritism and perverting the law
After dinner, everyone gathered in the marshal’s tent. Junxu sat in the marshal’s chair with a normal expression, quietly scanning the crowd. His gaze was slightly dull, and Feng Qin was not there.
A light cough
“Bring them up.’
A few bodyguards threw three bound men onto the ground. They were the money and grain officer of the Flying Tiger Battalion, the money and grain officer of the left route army, and Li Qiuhu, the deputy general of Luo Yin, the Flying Tiger general of the Flying Tiger Battalion. Luo Yin, with bushy eyebrows and big eyes, stood aside in plain clothes, looking serious. The black-clad man reported
“Marshal, four people escaped, three were brought back, and one resisted and was killed!’
‘Who died?‘
’Lieutenant General Hong Tian.‘
Luo Yin’s bushy eyebrows furrowed as he bowed
’Marshal, I have something to say.‘
’Speak.‘
’Marshal, I alone was responsible for this matter, and no one else was involved. I will take the blame.”
What?
Jun Xu frowned, his gaze falling straight on Luo Yin’s face. Who is this person taking the blame for? And why?
You can take the blame willingly, but with the representatives of the entire army camp here, in full view, if I were to arbitrarily pass a verdict in this confused case, where would I put my face?
At that moment, his gaze sank, intimidating
‘General Luo, think carefully before you speak. I hate the nonsense of drinking soldiers’ blood the most. You can die, but you won’t die easily!’
Unexpectedly, Luo Yin only raised an eyebrow, but then plopped down on the ground and knelt down, determined to take the blame
‘Your humble servant did not deceive the marshal!’…
Jun Xu laughed in anger, picked up the pen and wrote a few words on the paper in a flamboyant manner, then sneered and threw the account book next to him directly in Luo Yin’s face
‘There must be an accomplice, right? Huh? Don’t tell me that you, General Luo, train your troops during the day and practice your generalship at night, and you still have time to alter the account books while you sleep! You are even more resilient than this marshal!‘
Luo Yin’s lips trembled twice, his eyes flickering slightly, and finally he gritted his teeth
’The accomplice is the officer in charge of money and provisions in the Flying Tiger Battalion, Su Qin.’
Jun Xu raised his gaze, and Su Qin fell to the ground. Jun Xu withdrew his gaze and looked steadily at Luo Yin
‘Lord Su is not sober, why don’t you serve him?’
Hearing this, the black-clad guard grabbed Su Qin by the collar and punched him left and right, leaving Su Qin howling like a wolf with bleeding mouth and nose.
‘I’ll tell you everything.‘
’Su, confess and you’ll get a lenient sentence, resist and you’ll get a harsh one. Stubbornness will get you nowhere. I’ve told you before, surrendering means voluntarily confessing your own crimes and those of your accomplices, and the sentence will be reduced accordingly. As for meritorious service, if you voluntarily disclose other circumstances related to the case, I can consider letting you go.”
Junxu’s pretty hands played with a small, dazzling silver dagger
‘Lying… I like that best. I know many ways to get the truth out of people.‘
’This matter… This matter… The left-hand official in charge of money and grain, Luo Zhiyuan, was also involved. Marshal, you are wise. I am under your roof and have to bow my head… It was her, it was her, it was her who forced me to take bribes and pervert the law! It was her!”
With interest, Jun Xu propped up his chin and looked at Luo Zhiyuan, who was kneeling nearby
‘Lord Luo, do you have anything to say?‘
’I have nothing to say.‘
’Why do you have nothing to say?‘
Luo Zhiyuan turned a deaf ear. Jun Xu was furious, his voice a little lazy
’Bring three large buckets of cold water, Lord Luo is thirsty and won’t speak, so give her something to moisten her throat.’
