Chapter 99 That Plan Was Brought Forward
servant hesitated to speak."Speak!" Zhao Deyi said coldly."Master, Yang Lin distributed all those fields yesterday.""Today he spent all three thousand taels of silver…"The servant lowered his head an...Zhao Deyi's heart hardened.
Simply!
All or nothing!
If Yang Lin is not killed, then with his noble status, I'm afraid I will be the one who dies!
As soon as Zhao Deyi said this, the yamen servants still stood there in stunned silence.
Are you really going to do it
It seems like the other party might be a noble!
For a moment, the officers looked at each other, waiting to see what the others would do.
They were not true soldiers to begin with, incapable of unquestioning obedience. Zhao DeYi's orders were more likely to be a death sentence, so for a long time, no one dared to move.
"Who dares to challenge me"
Li Yuyao seized the imperial decree and shouted, "According to the Great Qin Law, anyone who dares to attack a noble without cause will be exterminated! Do you want to end up like Zhao Deyi, having your family raided and destroyed"
The officials were already timid, and when Li Yuyao shouted like that, even the more cowardly ones dropped their swords.
Zhao Deyi was furious, roaring: "I told you to chop Yang Lin up! Did you hear me!"
Zhao Deyi was furious and raised his whip, lashing out at the several yamen officers in front of him.
However, the more he grew agitated, the more the constables feared to advance.
They are not stupid; they won't step forward now. Even if Zhao County Magistrate is furious, he can't punish them all.
And as for Yang Lin's side, hundreds of people were already menacing and murderous. Now that they had the status of nobles, it made them even more formidable.
It's better to be safe than sorry!
If the nobleman's identity is true, then Zhao Deyi will not only lose their protection but also face a dead end himself.
"
Trash, all trash!!"
"
Zhao Deyi was furious and roared angrily.
He was very embarrassed.
One of his own men turned against him at the last minute, and the others refused to follow orders. This not only embarrassed him but also left him unsure how to end this day's affair.
And he was very clear that by now, it wasn't just about saving face.
If he were to leave just like that, it would be as if he was admitting defeat and acknowledging Yang Lin's noble status.
In this way, it will be completely impossible to mobilize official power against Yang Lin in the future.
However, what Zhao Deyi did not expect was that when he was still hesitant...
Yang Lin suddenly, without any regard for chivalry, loudly shouted: “Zhao Deyi intends to assassinate this lord! His crime deserves death! Execute him on the spot, loose the arrows!”
As soon as Yang Lin finished speaking, Zhong Tao's crossbow fired, the arrow shot out like a meteor and instantly pierced Zhao Deyi's chest.
Meanwhile, the rest of the guards were only half a beat slower than Zhong Tao, and they all let their arrows fly at the same time.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh——!"
Ten arrows were shot, not a single one missed, all hitting Zhao Deyi accurately.
In the blink of an eye, Zhao Deyi's body was pierced by dozens of arrows.
Zhao Deyi stared with disbelief in his eyes, revealing both unwillingness and fear. He opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a word. Blood oozed from his body, turning crimson. His entire being resembled a hedgehog as he fell from his horse, motionless.
"Splash!"
The constables were so frightened that they retreated in fear, clutching their swords and trembling with terror.
Many people haven't even come to their senses yet, and some don't even know what happened. Their county magistrate Zhao... just died like that!
Everything happened too fast, no one expected it to be like this.
Even the villagers didn't expect Yang Lin to actually order the archers to shoot!
I never expected the guard squad to be so obedient. Yang Lin told them to fire arrows, and they actually fired them
That's the county magistrate!
"To kill just like that" Fear glinted in the eyes of the guards. They were terrified of Yang Lin's order to have them executed, yet they dared not approach him. They shuffled nervously, unsure what to do next.
Zhou Kun was also completely dumbfounded.
The County Magistrate... just died
How could this be
Yang Lin, how dare he actually kill someone!
If Yang Lin was truly a nobleman, then Zhao Deyi's death would have been for nothing just for leading people to attack a nobleman!
Even after death, one will still be held accountable!
Yang Lin shouted: “The culprit Zhao Deyi is dead, you should lay down your weapons and surrender immediately. If you dare to resist, you will be killed without mercy!”
Song Qian, who had betrayed at the last moment, now transformed into a sycophant and shouted along with them: “Brothers, surrender quickly! Young Master Yang is really a nobleman. I've verified the imperial edict, it's absolutely true! According to the Great Qin Law, attacking nobles is a serious crime! Zhao Deyi deserves his punishment. Do you want to die with Zhao Deyi Or follow the nobleman and live a life of luxury”
The already terrified yamen servants, who had no intention of resisting in the first place, upon hearing this, did not hesitate at all and immediately laid down their weapons and surrendered.
Yang Lin's eyes lit up.
This Song Qian, not only has a good command of language, but also knows what he wants.
No wonder Zhao Deyi would reuse him.
He is a talented individual!
... these two sides, three-edged swords, the kind of people who could betray you at any time...
Available, but cannot be reused!
Yang Lin has already labeled Song Qian in his heart.
At this moment, Zhou Kun, who was still riding on his horse, was completely dumbfounded.
The magistrate of Zhao County died, and all the clerks surrendered.
What should I do
"Zhou Kun!"
Yang Lin shouted loudly.
Zhou Kun was instantly terrified, and he no longer cared about face. He immediately tumbled off his horse and stumbled to his knees before Yang Lin.
"My Lord, spare my life! This is all Zhao Deyi's doing. I had no idea, I was misled! I know I have erred!"
Zhou Kun, with snot and tears streaming down his face, kowtowed repeatedly.
He was a coward, already scared by what happened last time. Today, Yang Lin killed Zhao Deyi right in front of him.
Zhou Kun was terrified. Yang Lin had even killed the county magistrate, what could a lowly jailer like him possibly be
If Yang Lin acted impulsively, he could lose his life with just a wave of his hand!
What is mianzi Can you eat it
So, just admit defeat.
Seeing Zhou Kun kneel, Yang Lin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Very good, the culprit is Zhao Deyi. I believe you have all been misled by Zhao Deyi. As long as you cooperate with me, I will not make things difficult for you."
He had the people disarm the surrendered constables, gathering them all in front of the courtyard. He also bound Zhou Kun and then called upon Li Yuyao, Zhong Tao, Zhao Fugui, and the others to come inside.
As soon as he entered the room, Yang Lin immediately patted his chest to calm his nerves.
"At this point, we have no choice but to take a risk!"
"Uncle Three, do you remember the plan we talked about before It seems like we need to put it into action earlier than expected!"
Zhao Fuguai was startled.
When Yang Lin told him about the plan that day, he was so startled that he couldn't recover for a long time.
To this day, he still hasn't figured out whether or not to do that crazy thing with Yang Lin!
Today, things have escalated so much that Yang Lin is actually going to advance the plan
Zhao Fuguai swallowed nervously and asked, "Yang Lin, your Uncle Three only wants to ask you one thing. Be honest with us, are you... really a lord"nyway, even if you look at it from a literal perspective, the other person is always in the right.So, no matter what, we must make the most thorough preparations and plan for the worst."Qingyi, you go...
