People really don't want to work overtime in Daxia

Chapter 222

The room fell into silence again. In fact, there were several possibilities, but they were unwilling to think about it.

Yu Qing looked around at them and said, "In that case, let me speak!"

"Where is Zizhu!"

A figure came in, knelt down in front of Yu Qing and saluted, "Zi Zhu sees Lord Hou!"

"Take someone to investigate! Find out where the gunpowder bombs in Dongfang Dashu's hands come from, and check whether the number of gunpowder bombs in each person's hands can be matched! Is the inventory in the warehouse correct?"

While talking, Yu Qing looked at the crowd and said, "Once the investigation is over, anyone who hides and refuses to cooperate will be arrested first."

Seeing this, everyone lowered their heads. They knew that Yu Qing was speaking to a few of them, but they didn't know what was going on.

Now the only thing to do is to pray that it is not done by his subordinates, otherwise he will have to eat along with him.

Zizhu left, but everyone in the room did not move.This time, Yu Qing didn't let anyone watch the seats, so he just stood there one by one.

Yu Qing sat down on the chair directly, picked up the tea that the guard had just brewed, and drank it.

Time will pass very slowly, and Yu Qing has already drunk how many rounds of tea.But everyone hoped that Yu Qing could get up and go out for convenience, and they could move their hands and feet a little bit.

But it never occurred to him that Yu Qing sat there motionless like a mountain, drinking so much tea and remained motionless.When you're full, just close your eyes and rest there.

Occasionally he opened his eyes to glance at them, then closed them again.As a result, no one dared to move.
I don't know how long it took, but the curtain of the Chinese army's tent was opened from the outside.Everyone took the opportunity to turn around and look around. This scene scared the person who was about to enter the big tent.

Before entering, more than a dozen people all turned around and looked at each other. The point is that these people are all strong men, not little girls. If the eyes are shining, ordinary people will probably run away with a "ah" in fright.

The visitor took a few deep breaths to calm himself down and directly came to Yu Qing and said, "See Lord Hou!"

Only now did Yu Qing open his eyes, looked at the person and asked, "How's the investigation going?"

"Reporting to Lord Hou, after investigation, the number of gunpowder ammunition in the hands of the loyal army soldiers is basically no problem, even if there are a few fewer, it is within the controllable range."

"Later, we went to the warehouse according to your order, Lord Hou, there." Zizhu's voice paused at this point.

"Say!" Yu Qing's voice was undoubtedly powerful.

"Yes! There are two boxes of gunpowder shells missing in the warehouse, a total of one hundred pieces!" Zi Zhu paused and continued, "We have captured the guard of the warehouse."

"Someone paid them a lot of money to buy gunpowder, so they sold two boxes!"

"I planned to wait to cover up this matter, but I didn't expect Master Hou to investigate now."

"Cover up?" Yu Qing asked doubtfully, "Gunpowder equipment has always been strictly managed, how could they cover it up!"

"Reporting to the Marquis, we have also asked about this matter! They said that there are one or two missing from each box of gunpowder bombs they plan to distribute later. The number will come out as time goes by."

"Even if someone asks, they will say that it is shipped like this. After all, the warehouse accounts are recorded in boxes without the number."

Zi Zhu shut up after finishing what he had investigated. After all, they were just spies, and they had no right to say anything other than stating the facts!
For a while, the room fell into silence again, and everyone remained motionless.Although the accident in the warehouse has nothing to do with them.
"Okay! Okay!" Yu Qing said with an angry smile, "A few guards in the warehouse dare to resell gunpowder and ammunition. If this becomes popular, someone will sell the red cannon directly?"

"The armor and weapons are all small businesses. In the end, should I sell Lord Ben as well!" Yu Qing said and slapped the table.

"The guards involved will kill each other and let everyone watch. Serve as a warning to others!"

With an order, someone went to arrange it. On the school field outside the "Beiguan", all the soldiers of the Zhongxin Army gathered here except for the guards.

It is better to say that it is a school ground than an open space. A temporary high platform has been built on it, and Yu Qing and others are there.

This time, the matter was left to Lei Yuanwu. After all, his brothers died because of these guys who were greedy for small profits.

Lei Yuanwu shouted expressionlessly, "Someone, bring them up!"

In full view of everyone, a dozen soldiers in underwear were brought to the high platform and lined up.Their armor and clothes had already been stripped off.

Everyone came up dejectedly, but everyone looked different.

Some people bowed their heads without saying a word, and knelt directly under the leadership of the soldiers; When he begged for mercy, he was slapped several times by the soldiers.
Each of the more than ten people has different expressions, reactions, and mentality, and life is just like this.

Everyone in the audience looked blank, not knowing what happened.After all, they were assembled temporarily, and the generals above the commander-in-chief were always with Yu Qing, so they could not receive any "gossip"!
Lei Yuanwu looked at the crowd and said solemnly, "After investigation, Zhang San, Li Si, Wang Wu, Zhao Liu and others colluded with the enemy army in Dongdu to resell weapons in the army. There are two boxes of gunpowder and more than a hundred pieces of ammunition in total."

"Gunpowder bombs were used by the enemy to break out from the south gate of Beiguan, resulting in the death and injury of many soldiers of our loyal army! At the same time, the remnants of Dongdu escaped from the south gate, and Dongfang Dashu, the general of Dongdu, escaped."

"All the above things have been verified, and they all plead guilty!"

"Zhongxin Hou Yuqing personally ordered to investigate this matter strictly! All those involved in the incident must be executed and shown to the public!"

When Lei Yuanwu said this, more than ten people walked up to the high platform.I saw them wearing mille-soled cloth shoes, blooming trousers on their lower bodies, and a red dress on their upper bodies, with their chests exposed and their palm-sized hairs shining like that.

Everyone held a bowl of wine in their left hand, and a chain knife in their right hand, and the iron ring on the knife jingled as they walked.

Ordinary people have never seen such a scene, let alone on stage, even many people in the audience gasped.

"Wait!" Yu Qing said, the executioner quickly stopped and looked at him, and all the people kneeling there turned their heads as if seeing hope.

At this moment, they hoped that Yu Qinglai would say that the death penalty is exempt, even if there is a living crime, they would be happy, that way life is still alive!

Everyone looked at Yu Qing in unison, and it was almost the last step.Did Yu Qing change his mind?
