Chapter 493 Clean up one by one
Lina's thoughts were a tangled mess, but she was brought back to her senses by this familiar voice.
When he looked up, he saw the city lord's housekeeper, pointing at and cursing several women in fancy clothes.
Lina's heart skipped a beat and she handed the baby in her arms to the young secret guard beside her.
Secret Guard...
I took the baby in my arms and thought, "No, is this the right way to hold it?"
Will this child melt?
Ignoring the nervous look on the young secret guard's face, Lina stepped forward and said, "Butler," she said sternly, "You must not be rude in front of a noble."
The old butler paused after hearing this and looked at Lina.
A hint of doubt appeared on the old face, "Third Miss?"
"Shouldn't you be in the General's Mansion? Why are you back in the City Lord's Mansion?"
The butler looked Lina up and down with contempt in his eyes. He smiled with a fake smile, "Miss San, the city lord has worked hard for the city lord's mansion."
"You should be filial," he ignored Qian Qian and his group and walked a few steps closer to Lina, "Miss Third, I will send someone to accompany you back to the General's Mansion."
The strength that Lina had managed to maintain was broken at this moment.
Her eyes were red and her heart was sore. She clenched her fists, "You, you, are so bold."
He spoke these words with a trembling voice, as if he had used up all his strength.
Qianqian got off Erdan's back and patted Lina's back gently.
"Ruoqiang."
"Wei Chen is here."
Ruoqiang saluted straight, Qian Qian narrowed his eyes and looked at the old housekeeper, "This servant of the City Lord's Mansion has behaved inappropriately, and he will be punished according to the law."
"Yes."
Ruoqiang respectfully took the order and personally took control of the old steward of the City Lord's Mansion.
The old butler panicked for a moment, then calmed down, "My dear, you can see clearly that this is the West City Lord's Mansion."
"I won't tolerate your insolence, hmm."
Li Qin couldn't stand it any longer and stuffed the handkerchief into the housekeeper's mouth.
Ruoqiang chuckled, "Your Majesty, would you like to go into the City Lord's Mansion and take a look?"
"Well," Qian Qian nodded, "Gather all the servants in the City Lord's Mansion. I want to see how capable this West City City Lord's Mansion is."
The old butler, who was still sobbing and struggling, couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard this.
His cloudy old eyes were filled with disbelief. "Your Majesty? Me?"
It’s over.
The old butler was covered in dust and dirt, and Ruoqiang threw him to the deputy general beside him like a rag.
The system reminded Qianqian at this time, "Qianqian, this old Deng is not a good person."
[He used his identity as the steward of the City Lord's Mansion to oppress the people.]
[And this person's wealth is considerable. ]
Money money...
He became even more angry and rubbed his forehead with his hand, "Ruoqiang."
"The end will be here."
"Search this old man's house for me, and use all the wealth you find in West City."
"Yes."
Ruoqiang answered lightly, and the old housekeeper's legs went weak and he began to sob.
Qian Qian ignored them and led everyone into the City Lord's Mansion.
All the masters and servants in the City Lord's Mansion were so numerous that they almost filled the entire courtyard. Qian Qian tirelessly checked them one by one.
Lina stood beside His Majesty and looked at him with cold sweat on her forehead. This was not the City Lord's Mansion at all.
It was clearly a den of criminals. She didn't understand why her mother usually indulged these servants.
But people are never satisfied, they rob people of their property, force good people to be slaves, and occupy people's land...
Even her mother didn't dare to do these evil things, but the servants in the City Lord's Mansion did them easily.
She really didn't understand what the reason was.
Lina breathed rapidly and clasped her hands together, looking at the familiar faces with anger and a splitting headache.
Qian Qian was also very tired. It took more than three hours to sort out all the people in the City Lord's Mansion.
[Tongzi, who are the remaining people? ]
[It can be used for a while,] the system sighed, [each of these servants is just like the local emperor.]
[Those who stayed behind were not born in the City Lord's family, and they did not have any foundation. ]
[It’s not that they don’t dare to do evil, it’s that they can’t find a way.]
Qian Qian rubbed his brows and waved his hands, "Lina, go and rearrange everything in the City Lord's Mansion."
"I will stay in West City to recuperate these days."
Lina was a little panicked when she suddenly heard her name.
But seeing His Majesty's tired expression, he should take a deep breath and calm down.
Qianqian was settled in Lina's courtyard, and Lina and Ruoqiang worked together to tidy up the entire West City.
Outside the west city, the people gathered at the city gate have all been allowed into the city.
Lin Long was still guarding here with Xiao Hei and some secret guards, while Azhuo and a group of officials were still kneeling on the hard concrete floor.
Azhu calculated that she had been kneeling here for three hours.
Her knees were in so much pain that she lost feeling and she even thought she would not be able to save her legs.
It was getting dark and no one was seen at the West City Gate.
Just as she looked up and wanted to beg for mercy from the short old man, she heard the sound of uniform footsteps not far away.
"Old man."
It was Lu Yu's voice, and he came to Lin Long with a slightly lighter tone, "Grandpa, the matter of Pomegranate Village has been handled properly."
Lin Long looked at Lu Yu, then looked at A Ying who also looked happy, wondering, "What happened?"
"Grandpa," Ah Ying said with a smile, "there is a team of female guards in Shiliu Village. They have been in contact with the former road builders over the years."
"Because of them, the Pomegranate Village was not bullied. The people in the village lived in hardship, but they were able to help each other and barely survive."
Lin Long narrowed his eyes, "How many people did you leave in Pomegranate Village?"
Ah Ying replied, "Wuyou is guarding Pomegranate Village with 200 people."
Lin Long nodded and looked at the West City official who was kneeling and trembling on the ground.
After thinking for a while, he said, "It's a good opportunity for you to go into the city and ask His Majesty how to deal with these officials."
"Yes."
Aying took the order and led some elite troops into the West City.
Lu Yu stayed beside the old man waiting for orders. Lin Long looked at Lu Yu and then at Aying's leaving back.
I sighed inwardly, fortunately these people are not useless.
Half an hour later, a secret guard came and said, "Old man, His Majesty wants you to bring these officials into the City Lord's Mansion."
"Yes."
Lin Long took Azhu and his companions to the City Lord's Mansion. Along the way, Azhu's mind was racing.
She kept thinking about how she could change her image in the eyes of Her Majesty the Empress.
I heard that when Her Majesty was still the eldest princess, she was already favored by the Emperor and the Empress.
Although Your Majesty is in his early thirties this year, children who grow up in love are always simple-minded.
She couldn't help but think of her useless little girl, and wondered whether Chen Ziqiang had succeeded.
If Chen Ziqiang succeeds, she will have the entire West City Army in her hands.
After dealing with Her Majesty the Empress, she is still the Master of West City and her life is still good.
As his thoughts raced, Azhuo and other officials were brought into the side courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion.
Lin Long had already carried Xiao Hei back to the courtyard arranged for him by His Majesty to rest.
Azhuo and a group of officials stood in the side courtyard and looked at each other. She secretly observed the soldiers and secret guards guarding the courtyard.
He looked around again, and an official whispered in his ear, "Lord City Lord, what is this?"
call out.
A cold arrow flew and stabbed the feet of the whispering official.
The official was so frightened that he shut up and dared not say a word. Azhuo also did not dare to speak and trembled all over, waiting in panic.
The nights in West City are cold.
Qian Qian stayed in a room with a warm charcoal basin and met Lu Yu and A Ying.
After hearing what they said about the situation in Pomegranate Village, he nodded slightly and said, "You should rest well tonight. Tomorrow,"
Before he finished speaking, a secret guard came to report, "Your Majesty, the West City Army has mutinied."
