As these troublemakers from Lin County were making a fuss, Chu Yuanju just stood quietly by, observing their every move and performance. He knew very well that these people would never give up their claims and demands easily.

They may have their own reasons and excuses, but Chu Yuanju clearly knows the deeper intentions and purposes behind these people's actions.

Therefore, he would never make any concessions and would do everything according to His Majesty's wishes.

At this time, Mu Yunfeng stood up. He sternly accused them in a loud voice: "Shut up!"

Mu Yunfeng and these generals and soldiers were there to prevent these people from not cooperating. His voice echoed in the crowd, immediately attracting everyone's attention and making the originally noisy scene quiet down instantly.

When Mu Yunfeng said this in a firm and powerful tone, the soldiers around him also tightened their grips on their weapons. Their eyes were full of vigilance and preparation, ready to deal with any situation that might arise at any time.

Their actions demonstrated their absolute trust and support for Mu Yunfeng. Determination and loyalty flashed in the soldiers' eyes, and they were ready to obey Mu Yunfeng's orders and fight.

If these aristocratic families in Lin County do not cooperate with the orders of the prince and Mu Yunfeng and instead start a riot, they will not hesitate to suppress them, maintain order and stability and ensure that there will be no riot in Lin County.

These soldiers are Mu Yunfeng's strongest backing. Their presence makes Mu Yunfeng's words more weighty and makes everyone present dare not disregard his orders.

Amidst the tense atmosphere, Chu Yuanju's face revealed a subtle smile. He was well aware of Mu Yunfeng's prestige and ability, and the soldiers were absolutely obedient to his orders. Following Mu Yunfeng's orders, the originally noisy crowd gradually quieted down, and everyone's attention was focused on him.

Mu Yunfeng looked around, his gaze seemed to be able to penetrate everyone's mind. Although he knew clearly that although some people present still had dissatisfaction in their hearts, they could no longer stir up any big waves.

With the imperial army here, even if all the surviving people in Lin County rebel together, Mu Yunfeng is confident that he can completely suppress them.

Mu Yunfeng took a deep breath and then spoke, "How could I not know what you are thinking? You feel that you have made great contributions and that the reward from His Majesty is not enough. You still want to continue making trouble, right? Do you really need me to help you find a decent solution?"

Mu Yunfeng didn't express his opinion directly, as he knew full well that they all still belonged to the Wei people. These aristocratic families in Lin County were simply too ambitious, making them somewhat restless. However, as long as they obeyed orders and remained loyal, Mu Yunfeng saw no problem.

However, those aristocratic families did not intend to agree with Mu Yunfeng's words. He started to make a fuss again. At this time, a middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes stood up and said to Mu Yunfeng:

"General, your actions are quite unreasonable. You must know that Lin County was once our family's territory, and our contributions to it are indelible. Now, you want to exclude us. How can we accept this? And now you want to use force to force us to agree to the court's policies. This is too much."

Mu Yunfeng's eyes were sharp as a torch. He responded calmly, "Do I need to recount everything you did? If you had organized resistance in Lin County, the Xiongnu wouldn't have been able to capture Lin County so easily.

You deserted the Huns when they came, and now that we've driven them away, you're just sitting back and reaping the benefits? Are you really that shameless?"

Mu Yunfeng no longer held back after hearing what the man said, and spoke directly from his heart, while also demonstrating his determination and ability in this matter. There was no trace of retreat or compromise in his words.

He clearly stated his position, that is, all matters in Lin County must be handled in accordance with the will given by His Majesty, and there will absolutely be no second possibility.

Mu Yunfeng still had a crucial word hidden in his heart. He knew very well that if he said it, it would hurt the feelings of the people and soldiers in Lincheng.

That is, if there was no support from the army sent by the court, it would be a fantasy and a foolish dream for the aristocratic families and people of Lin County to want to repel the joint army of the Huns and the Gan Kingdom with their own strength.

Mu Yunfeng knew that everyone was from Wei. Lin County and the border cities had been severely damaged by the Xiongnu invasion. Only by uniting together could they overcome the current difficulties, revitalize Lin County and the border cities, and continue to protect the security of the border.

Although these aristocratic families in Lin County may have various ideas and plans in their hearts, it is undeniable that they have also made contributions to the country.

Therefore, Your Majesty has decided to have them travel to Kaifeng City to receive the corresponding rewards and honors. This is a recognition of their past efforts and sacrifices, and an expectation of their future loyalty. Your Majesty's decision is not only a recognition of their past contributions, but also an encouragement for their continued contributions to the country in the future.

However, if they continue to act unreasonably and disregard the general situation, their past actions will be handed over to the Ministry of Personnel for review and handling, ensuring that rewards and punishments are clearly defined. By then, we will see how many of them can still stand here unharmed.

His Majesty's decree also stated that if they committed crimes while serving as officials, they would be punished. This meant that any investigations by the Ministry of Personnel into their crimes would only be limited to their actions after they assumed office. His Majesty had already decided to write off all their previous actions.

You must know that when the people of the Nine Provinces of Hedong suffered from the disaster, none of the nobles and officials who fled from Wei were pardoned by His Majesty. All of them were punished by Prime Minister Qin according to the laws of Wei.

This time, His Majesty, in recognition of their meritorious service, has waived the need to pursue their past crimes. If they still seek to gain more, then only His Majesty's butcher knife awaits them. After all, His Majesty is not above ordering the killing of others.

Although Your Majesty is merciful, this does not mean that the ambitions and crimes of these people can be tolerated without limit. These aristocratic families in Lin County should clearly understand that the court's patience is limited, and they must carefully consider their actions.
