Rebirth: The wedding night, my whole family was exiled, I raised 500,000 soldiers

"General, is it because our food is not to your taste?" asked the cook.

Guard: "General, I walked very fast all the way. When I put the food down, it was still hot!"

Ban Sicao: "Who asked you this? Your general's food was poisoned!"

Everyone's expressions changed.

The cook and the guards immediately cried out their innocence.

"General, we are innocent, we didn't poison anyone!"

"General, if I poison you, my whole family will die!"

"General, I dare not. Even if you lend me a hundred courages, I still dare not poison you!"

Everyone is crying out for injustice.

Wei Dongzhu heard the news and came here quickly. After hearing what happened from Chunxue, Wei Dongzhu felt so cold that he almost froze.

"General, let's torture him!"

Shen Lanxi glanced at Wei Dongzhu and said, "Ban Sicao, you will help General Hu to find the person who poisoned me!"

Ban Si Cao: “Yes!”

"This poison is colorless and tasteless, but when mixed in food, it will have a rusty smell. Anyone who has come into contact with this poison will have marks on their body. As long as the person's skin is soaked in special alkaline water, the skin will turn yellow!"

"This is more convenient than torture!"

Wei Dongzhu's eyes flashed: "Please ask Mr. Ban to prepare the alkaline water!"

Ban Sicao: "Okay, okay, gather all the people who might have come into contact with the food!"

Wei Dongzhu immediately went to get the person.

After a while, those who delivered the vegetables, washed the vegetables, and made the fire, all the people who had come into contact with Shen Lanxi's food were gathered together and stood in the yard.

Ban Si Cao prepared two water vats, separated by a curtain.

"The men are over there, the women are over here, their skins are all soaked in water, and after drying, they each watch to see if their skin changes color!"

Chunxue Qiushuang is in charge of the women's side, while Ban Sicao and Wei Dongzhu are in charge of the men's side!

One after another, people pick up someone and then stand aside.

By the time the last person had finished taking a dip, the water tank had become too dirty to look at.

Shen Lanxi watched everyone's reactions without showing any expression, until Ban Sicao suddenly shouted, "Why are they all changing colors?"

The guards standing by all drew their weapons and pointed them at the people in the yard.

The skin of those who had just soaked in the water turned a waxy yellow.

Ban Sicao: "General, these people's bodies have changed color. They are likely to have come into contact with poison directly or indirectly. We need to interrogate them one by one."

Shen Lanxi nodded: "I'll leave this matter to you!"

"Yes!"

Because of the poisoning incident, everyone in the camp was in a panic. They didn't dare to go out alone and began to monitor each other!

After nightfall, a dark shadow sneaked into the place where the prisoners were held. Just as he was about to poison the water, he was bitten by a small snake that jumped out of the water jar.

Ban Sicao brought the person in front of Shen Lanxi.

"It was he who poisoned the water jar and wanted to kill people!"

Qian Feng: "This person is the imperial guard who followed Zhao Chengkai before."

Ban Si Cao raised an eyebrow: "How could the Imperial Guards have such a vicious poison?"

Shen Lanxi: "Wake him up."

Ban Si Cao just reached out his hand when he suddenly felt something was wrong. He turned the man over and saw that his face had turned black and he was dead!

"Dead!" Ban Sicao's face turned cold. He first checked the wound caused by Xiaohong's bite, and then checked the body and mouth of the imperial guard.

"The poison sac inside his teeth was not bitten through, and his tongue and nails are black. Judging from the time when the poison took effect, he had already taken poison before he came here!"

Xiao Fang: "You mean, the person who sent him didn't want him to go back alive?"

Ban Sicao frowned and shook his head: "Xiaohong is a poisonous snake, but the poison won't take effect so quickly. I originally wanted Xiaohong to bite him, and after he suffered some torture, he would confess. But I didn't expect that it would conflict with the poison in his body."

Wei Dongzhu: "That is to say, although this man took poison, he will get the antidote after completing the mission and returning. Your venomous snake bit him, and the two poisons collided, so he died so quickly!"

Ban Sicao glanced at Wei Dongzhu. Did he commit any crime against this person?

"Yes!" He is a man who dares to take responsibility for what he has done, and he will definitely admit it!

"It was my mistake this time. You can punish me or punish me if you want!"

Shen Lanxi: "Please clean up this person's body. This person has never appeared before!"

The Imperial Guards!

For a moment, everyone felt heavy-hearted.

Although the detainees were innocent, they could not be released so quickly. Ban Sicao presided over the case and questioned them carefully one by one. Only after eliminating any suspicion could they be released!

"The Gaoyang Lu family bullied men and women, seized land, and murdered people for money. They were all-powerful in Gaoyang. Their crimes are too numerous to list."

"General, you will eliminate the treacherous villains for our Great Zhou and restore a bright and peaceful world to the people of Gaoyang!"

"Forty-seven members of the Lu family who are the main criminals will be beheaded in public!"

"The rest of the accomplices will be sent to the Suiyuan quarry as slaves in accordance with the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty to build the city wall!"

After the verdict was handed down, all 47 members of the Lu family were beheaded on the spot!

That afternoon, people queuing up to pay taxes stretched from the South Gate to the North Gate.

Shen Lanxi shouted loudly: "I don't care if there is chaos elsewhere!"

"There can't be chaos in my jurisdiction!"

"If anyone dares not obey the law, this is what will happen to them!"

After she finished speaking, she walked away, stepping on the blood, leaving a bloody mark with every step!

From then on, no one in Yonglin Prefecture dared to test Shen Lanxi's attitude!

The Recruiting Office has been a bit irritated lately.

It is understandable that some women want to join the army, but for women who have joined the army before, it is not in accordance with the procedures to discharge them now.

The service period in the Great Zhou Dynasty was five to seven years. The shortest time these women had served in the army was only a few days, and the longest was only a few months. Now they want to retire, what should they do with the two taels of silver they had received as resettlement fees?

Should I withdraw too?

The key point is that these women have no money to return, which makes the recruiters very worried.

The recruiting office reported the matter to Qian Mu layer by layer. After Qian Mu understood the cause and effect, he felt that this was a big deal and immediately reported it to Shen Lanxi.

"Since he proclaimed himself emperor, the King of Dong Liao has opened up a harem, and all the women with a bit of beauty have been taken in. We are not far from where the King of Dong Liao is, and many women with a bit of beauty want to take the opportunity to get close to him. Many women in our military camp are tempted, and some are called away by their families. There are also some who don't want to be captured to serve the King of Dong Liao, and come here to join the army!"

Shen Lanxi: "If those women want to leave, they only need to return the resettlement allowance and other things given to them by the army, and then they can leave. If they come to join the army again in the future, they will never be accepted!"

"Yes!"

"For those who join the army to escape disaster, we have agreed in advance that no salary will be paid. If you leave early, you will have to pay 500 taels of silver to avoid disaster. If you leave until the end of your service, all the salary during your service will be returned!"

"Yes!"

The military camp is not a place for these people to take refuge. If they use it as a retreat, they will have to bear the consequences of borrowing her power for protection!
