Chapter 219 He is a very conscientious subordinate
"She's not feeling well now!"
When Bai Ye heard this, his face suddenly turned pale and a panic surged in his heart.
Earlier on the punishment platform, the stake to which he was tied was very close to Li Qingqing.
It was so close that he could hear the subtle moans that inadvertently escaped from between her teeth, and so close that he could clearly see beads of cold sweat the size of beans emerging from her forehead.
He watched helplessly as such a thin woman bore such heavy punishment in his place.
Later, after being untied, he couldn't help but want to attack Lord Wei. He had just taken two steps when she knocked him unconscious.
Bai Ye remembered what her master said: what she wanted were absolutely loyal subordinates.
Now that he has acted on his own, his master must be extremely disappointed in him. He clearly felt her anger last night.
Bai Ye felt extremely guilty. He stood there in a daze, not daring to take another step forward.
In his entire life, he had never felt so guilty towards anyone as he did now.
Zhou Yimo was originally in a hurry to arrange the things that Li Qingqing had asked him to do. He took a few hurried steps and suddenly turned back.
He was a little excited just now. Now that Bai Ye has woken up, he must first ask about the cause and effect.
When he turned around, he found Bai Ye kneeling there without saying a word.
The slender figure looked particularly lonely and desolate at this moment.
Although Zhou Yimo was angry at his reckless behavior, he couldn't help but feel a little sorry when he saw him like this.
Last night, my wife took such a big risk to treat his injuries, and today she is taking the punishment for him.
It took him a long time to treat his injuries, all because he wanted Bai Ye to survive.
But this guy is so good, he just woke up and he is in a hurry to come and apologize. If his injury worsens, all previous efforts will be in vain.
Zhou Yimo walked up quickly and asked, "Why don't you go and have a good rest?"
Bai Ye lowered his eyes and remained silent for a long time before replying, "Master, I have caused you so much trouble. I feel guilty."
Bai Ye's heart was filled with guilt at this moment, and he began to regret what he had done.
He has few relatives in his life.
When he was young and ignorant, his family and country were broken, and he was abducted and sold to the country of Dayuan after many twists and turns. Fortunately, he met A Niang in the crisis and was able to grow up smoothly.
A Niang is his adoptive mother, like an umbrella that suddenly opens over his head in a snowstorm.
So when Mr. Liu threatened him with A'niang's life, he took the poison that controlled him without hesitation and willingly became Mr. Liu's subordinate.
But this warm umbrella is no longer there. Because Mr. Liu killed A Niang, he was furious and killed his master.
Fortunately, God never deprives him of hope. In his darkest moment, he was fortunate to meet Li Qingqing, who was like a ray of light guiding him out of the darkness.
Only after breaking free from Mr. Liu's control did he feel like living like a human being.
But now he has done something wrong and implicated his master. He wonders how badly his master is injured...
Bai Ye straightened his body and tried to make his kneeling posture more standard.
The wounds on his body were still painful, but only in this way did he feel better.
Zhou Yimo stared at Bai Ye. Seeing that he was so stubborn, he knew that he would not listen to his advice. However, his wife was injured, so he would definitely not let Bai Ye disturb her at this time.
Zhou Yimo had no choice but to go along with him, thinking that he would treat him when he couldn't hold on any longer.
Zhou Yimo thought about this and continued to ask, "Tell me, why did you want to assassinate Lord Wei?"
Bai Ye said nothing, but he stood with his back straight and motionless.
At the beginning, his mother had repeatedly forbade him to seek revenge on Wei Duhu, but when he really met Wei Duhu yesterday, he forgot his mother's warning.
It was Protector Wei who caused damage to A'niang's tendons and veins, leaving her unable to hold a sword, otherwise she would not have been harmed by Mr. Liu.
Damn it, Protector General Wei!
But he was a commoner, and Protector Wei was an official. Even his master and his men could not directly confront Protector Wei, so how could he have the ability to do such a stupid thing.
It was his fault. He shouldn't have been so arrogant as to think that he could kill Wei Duhu with his martial arts.
No, he was wrong for not listening to A Niang. He was also wrong for going against his master and acting on his own.
Bai Ye was deeply immersed in his own thoughts, unable to extricate himself.
Zhou Yimo asked again, but Bai Ye’s lips were tightly pursed into a line, and he refused to speak again.
Zhou Yimo felt helpless, knowing that he couldn't get anything out of him because of his usually taciturn nature.
So he decided to take care of his own affairs first and wait for his wife to come and ask in person.
Zhou Yimo went to the training ground to find Li Feng and learned that Li Feng had gone to the border town.
The battle resulted in heavy casualties for the defenders, with over half of them lost. Due to the long journey, those who died from outside the city were hastily buried outside the border town. The remaining remains, belonging to the defenders who had once resided in the border town, had already been transported there yesterday afternoon.
If the incident between Bai Ye and Lord Wei had not happened suddenly, people should have been sent to the border town to appease the people long ago.
Zhou Yimo thought to himself that the border town was under the jurisdiction of the border city, and there were a large number of new refugees moving in, and a large number of soldiers defending the city were killed or injured. It would be very appropriate for Li Feng to go there in person to comfort them.
But, Li Feng is still a seriously injured patient after all, how can he run around like this?
Zhou Yimo shook his head secretly. These people completely ignored their injuries and acted as they pleased.
Even if he wanted to improve his practical experience in trauma treatment, he didn't have to do it himself. He could just go back to Qiu Shui Town and continue to find those prisoners for experiments.
As Zhou Yimo was thinking this, he saw Hu Dabao coming to him in a gloomy manner.
"What happened to you?" Zhou Yimo frowned, thinking about the scratch on his arm. It was probably almost healed now. Could it be that he was injured somewhere else?
"Master Zhou, I'm done!" Hu Dabao cried, "Can you please ask General Li for mercy on my behalf and spare us from recitation?"
"What are you reciting?" Zhou Yimo was confused.
"General Li reprimanded us earlier and told us to memorize the laws of the Great Abyss within a month, otherwise each of us would be punished with thirty lashes!"
Hu Dabao was about to cry, "Most of the people I lead are illiterate. What should I do?"
"Don't know how to read? Let someone who knows how to read read it to them!" Zhou Yimo responded calmly with a blank expression.
"As their captain, if they can't memorize it, you will have to give them an additional thirty lashes."
"Ah!——" Hu Dabao widened his eyes, "Are you serious, Master Zhou?"
What a disaster!
He shouldn't have come to plead just now.
"What? Do you know that your master received thirty lashes in vain to save you and is still lying in bed? She used her military achievements to bail you out, so what's wrong with you reciting some laws?"
"Ah!——" Hu Dabao was shocked again.
These people were locked up in the prison and had no idea what was happening outside. When he heard that Li Qingqing had paid such a huge price to keep them safe, he was speechless.
Seeing that he didn't dare to say anything, Zhou Yimo asked again, "Are you not convinced? Will you do it again next time?"
"I give up! I give up!" Hu Dabao smiled awkwardly, "I promise to complete the task!"
After Hu Dabao finished speaking, he ran away with a whoosh.
He had to go to Deputy General Chi to borrow a loudspeaker. When everyone was building the city wall, they had people recite the law into the loudspeaker. This way, they could both ensure the construction period and complete the recitation task.
Hmm! But before that, I have to go check on the boss's injuries. He is a very conscientious subordinate!
