Chapter 603: Beheading, Replacement (Please vote and subscribe)

Jin Yi was kicked to the wall by Luo Chong, and then he quickly knelt on the ground, too scared to even breathe, while Luo Chong was so angry that he was spinning in circles, but now that things have come to this, being angry alone will not solve the problem, he must help them clean up their mess, otherwise they will lose a lot this time.

Luo Chong glanced at Jin Yi in the corner with a cold face, and he had already sentenced this man to death in his heart. He did the task he had entrusted to him like this, and concealed the news of the delegation in order to keep his official position. He was no longer qualified to be the commander of the Jinwu Guard.

Although Luo Chong was very reluctant to kill people, after all, for the Han tribe, every laborer was precious, but only Jin Yi could not live, it was because he knew too much, and the Jinwu Guard, an intelligence agency, must not be leaked by him.

Thinking of this, Luo Chong suddenly shouted to the outside, "Someone come."   There was a sound of footsteps on the stairs outside the door. With a creak, the wooden door was pushed open and two clerks in red official robes walked in.

"   Meet the leader." The two clerks bowed and saluted.   "Take this Jin Yi down and behead him." Luo Chong said coldly with an expressionless face.   The two clerks looked at each other and saw that each other's eyes were full of confusion. Jin Yi in the corner was not happy when he heard that the leader was going to kill him. He knelt down at Luo Chong's feet and cried for mercy.   "Chief, spare me. I know I was wrong. Please give me another chance. I will definitely get the money back next time. Please forgive me."   "Waste, do you want another time?"   Luo Chong impatiently kicked him again. With a thud, Jin Yi's head hit the tea table and he fainted. The two clerks beside him were the first to see the chief get so angry. They were too scared to speak.   "Are you two deaf? Or do you want to die with him? Why don't you drag him out and chop him off?" Luo Chong roared again.   "Yes, yes." The two clerks didn't dare to be stunned anymore. They immediately stepped forward and dragged Jin Yi's arms out. When they reached the door, they stopped for a while. One of them asked carefully.   "Chief, how do we chop him off?"   Luo Chong glared at him dissatisfiedly when he heard this stupid question, but considering that they had never done such a job of chopping off heads, they suppressed their anger and said.   "Take him to the back of the government building and chop him with a knife. Chop his neck. Remember to block his mouth. I don't want to hear him talk anymore. Don't let him scare the children in the school in front."   The two clerks were so frightened that they forgot to respond. They hurriedly dragged the unconscious Jin Yi down the stairs and dragged him to the street behind the building. They also found a rag to block his mouth, which attracted the people on the opposite side of the street to stop and watch. They didn't know what they were doing.   The two tied Jin Yi's hands and feet and put him on the street. When he left the building and was blown by the cold wind, he woke up immediately. As a result, he found that his mouth was blocked and his hands and feet were tied. Thinking of the leader's order just now, he was scared out of his wits and began to struggle.   "Be honest and wait for death. The leader has called you a waste. You must have done something to let the leader down." One of the clerks also kicked Jin Yi, but when Jin Yi heard this person asking him to wait for death, he continued to struggle.   "Brother, how can we cut without a knife? The leader is still watching from above."   "Well, how about you watch him first, and I'll go to the front yard to borrow a knife?" Another clerk looked up and found that the leader was watching from the window on the fifth floor, and hurriedly suggested.   "What are you waiting for? Go quickly."   So one of them hurriedly ran to the front door of the government building, borrowed a waist knife from the guard in front of the door, and ran back. Then the other took the knife and got angry. He gritted his teeth, pulled out the long knife and greeted Jin Yi's neck, but he didn't expect that this guy rolled on the ground and actually dodged it. When   the people across the street saw this posture, they thought, wow, this guy is going to kill someone! Moreover, this man was pulled out of the government building, and the leader was still watching from above. It was obviously the leader who ordered him to be killed. No one knew what mistake this man had made.   Some of the women saw their own children running to join in the fun, and hurriedly took the children home, leaving only some men who were idle at home watching.   "Can you do it? If you don't kill him, the leader will kill both of us. Give me the knife, I'll do it."   The clerk next to him couldn't stand it anymore, so he grabbed the knife and kicked Jin Yi to the ground, then stepped on his back to prevent him from moving, and swung the knife at the back of Jin Yi's neck. As a result, he chopped off his head, and also cut a knife mark on the ground, splashing blood all over himself.   The people around saw that he really chopped someone off, and they immediately ran away. Although they had all hunted before, there was a difference between hunting and killing the same kind, especially this kind of killing method of directly chopping off the head, which was really a bit scary.   The clerk who chopped Jin Yi with his own hands carried his head upstairs to report to Luo Chong, and before leaving, he did not forget to greet his colleagues and asked him to return the knife.   Thump thump thump thump - there was another sound of climbing the stairs, and the clerk walked in with the bloody head in his hands.   "Chief, have you already chopped off this head?"   Luo Chong pointed at the tea tray expressionlessly. The clerk understood and quickly placed Jin Yi's head on the tea tray, then stood aside with his head bowed, not knowing what the chief meant.   "Write a notice saying that Jin Yi, as the leader of the grassland caravan, knew about the incident but did not report it, which delayed the mission and caused the mission to be in a difficult situation. In the past eight months, no progress has been made, and the tens of thousands of cattle and horses used for trading have not been recovered. He was afraid of death and was hesitant, which humiliated the reputation of our Han tribe. Now he has been punished for multiple crimes and his head has been displayed to the public. I hope the people will know and not panic.   Have you written it down?"   "Yes, I have remembered it." The clerk nodded quickly. Only then did he know why the chief was so angry. Tens of thousands of cattle and horses, this guy didn't even ask for them back, and he concealed it and didn't report it. He deserved to be killed.   "Well, write it and show it to me. Then ask someone to wipe the blood off, and send someone to call You Zhi to me." Luo Chong nodded and ordered again.   "Yes, I'll do it right away." The clerk took the order and went downstairs again.   Not long after he left, someone came up to clean up the bloodstains. Looking at the heads on the table, they dared not breathe, knowing that the leader was angry today.   Luo Chong stood at the window, enjoying the cold wind, not wanting to smell the bloody smell. At the same time, he was thinking about the follow-up plan.

Jin Yi has been dealt with. It doesn't matter if this person is incompetent. The key is that if you can't do it yourself, just pass the news to me and I will find a way for you. You can also do it honestly, but this guy actually dared to conceal it and finally led to such a result. Killing him can't relieve Luo Chong's hatred. It's too embarrassing for the Han tribe.

But he is dead. Someone has to take over the position of the commander of the Jinwu Guard. Luo Chong thought about it and suddenly the figure of You Zhi appeared in his mind. Although this kid from the You clan is a little young, his performance on this voyage with his uncle You Fu was very eye-catching.

He dared to be the first to land when he came into contact with a strange tribe. He is brave enough. He has been traveling around with the You tribe since he was a child. He is knowledgeable and is very outgoing when interacting with people. This is the traditional advantage of the You tribe. He has strong social skills and can talk to anyone. He is also smart. When facing danger alone, he can make decisions on the spot and is calm and courageous. Let him be the commander of the Jinwu Guard. It should be feasible.

As for Shuya, who was sent to the Xin tribe, Luo Chong got a headache when he thought about it. Shuya was indeed honest and absolutely loyal to him. He was also an original member of the Han tribe and a veteran. He was just a little inexperienced and lacked some ability.

Luo Chong analyzed that he should be a more cautious person, fearing that the relationship between the Han and Xin tribes would become strained and the mission would be messed up in the end, so he was reluctant to do things.

But now he couldn't change him. He was already in the Xin tribe. It seemed that he could only give him some advice. In addition, he would go to support him after the New Year, and perhaps there would be a turnaround in this matter.

Just as Luo Chong was standing on the windowsill thinking about countermeasures alone, a clerk in the government office had already arrived at You Zhi's door.

"Is You Zhi at home?" A shout suddenly came from outside the door.

You Zhi is not married yet and lives alone, so he still lives with his parents. But today he happened to call Jiang Yong's sister Jiang Lei to his home. The two entered the room, and You Zhi was teaching her to write hand in hand.

You Zhi was deeply in love with Jiang Lei, and Jiang Xuan also wanted to bring them together, trying to use marriage to get closer to the Han tribe.

Jiang Yong saw that the people in the Han tribe lived so well, and that You Zhi was also good to his sister, so he also hoped that his sister could stay.

Then, with this back and forth, plus You Zhi's ability to talk, and the Han tribe had so many good things, such as giving clothes and delicious food, it didn't take long for Jiang Lei to be won over. Now the two are inseparable, just waiting for a good day to get things done.

As a result, while he was teaching his wife to write affectionately, someone suddenly called him outside, which made You Zhi angry. He pushed the door and shouted at the top of his voice; "Who is it? I'm at home, what do you want to talk to me about?"

As soon as he finished shouting, he saw a county official standing at the door of his house. He was wearing a leather hoop and a wooden hairpin, a scarlet official robe, and a copper seal on his waist. Isn't this the official of the criminal room of Hanyang County? This guy is specifically in charge of arrests and public security. Why did he come to him? Did I make a mistake?

Thinking about all these, You Zhi did not dare to neglect the other party, who was an official, and bowed quickly.

"I didn't know that the superior official was coming to visit. I was sorry for not welcoming you. I'm sorry for offending you just now. I hope you

won't blame me. Please come into my house and have a cup of hot tea. By the way, what does the

superior official want to see me for?" "No need to drink tea. The leader wants to summon you. Come with me." The chief official in the torture room said expressionlessly.

The leader just killed a man and turned around to summon You Zhi. Could it be that You Zhi also has something to do with Jin Yi? The chief official couldn't help but think wildly, so he didn't look good at You Zhi's enthusiasm, and he didn't dare to show too close.

When You Zhi saw the other party's attitude, he was a little unsure. Why did the leader suddenly summon him? Shouldn't he consult his uncle if there was anything? Looking at the dead face of the chief official, could it be that the leader didn't agree with me marrying a woman from the Jiang family?

"Oh? The leader wants to see me. Please wait for a moment. I'll go back to my room to get a coat."

You Zhi went back to his room without saying anything. He told his parents that he was going to see the leader, and then asked Jiang Lei to go back first. Finally, he took a sheepskin coat and put it on. He hurriedly followed the official to the government building. He lowered his head and thought about what the leader wanted to see him about.

The two of them went upstairs. When they reached the third floor, a servant suddenly came down from above. The bucket and rag in his hands were blood-red. A strong smell of blood rushed towards him, which made You Zhi frown and suddenly feel uneasy.

How could there be blood in the government building? ! This is not a butcher's

house .

"Leader, You Zhi is here." The official knocked on the door and said.

"Come in." Luo Chong's voice came from the red door.

You Zhi pushed the door open and walked in with a nervous mood. Seeing Luo Chong sitting behind the desk, he immediately bowed and said, "You Zhi greets the leader,... Leader."

The bloody smell in the room became stronger. When You Zhi bowed his head to bow, he always felt that someone was staring at him from the side. When he glanced, he saw a big head on the tea tray. The person was still looking at him with his eyes wide open, which almost scared him to bite his tongue.

"Well, you sit over there and wait." Luo Chong said expressionlessly.

"Oh, yes." You Zhi nodded in confusion. He didn't know what the leader meant, but when he saw the direction the leader pointed, this was, let him sit next to the tea table? !

You Zhi didn't dare to disobey Luo Chong's intention. He carefully sat on a futon covered with rabbit skin, staring at the head on the table. The atmosphere in the room began to become weird for a while.

After a while, another clerk came outside the door. This person's hair was still wet, as if he had just taken a bath, and his face was red from the cold.

"Report to the leader, the notice is ready."

"Read it."

"Yes, ahem, Jin Yi, the commander of the Jinwu Guard, as the leader of the grassland caravan, knew the truth but did not report it, delayed the mission and humiliated the reputation of our Han tribe. Now he is punished for multiple crimes and beheaded for public display. I hope the people will know and don't panic.

Leader, is it okay to write it like this?" The clerk read with shaking hands.

You Zhi, who was looking at the dead man next to him, heard the content of the notice and suddenly remembered the person in front of him. Who was the head? He had seen this person before. When the delegation was leaving, the whole city sent him off. Now the leader killed him and called himself here again. Could it be?

"Yes, let someone copy a few more copies and post them. Remember to send someone to explain." Luo Chong nodded and said.

"Yes, I will do it right away." The clerk bowed and retreated.

After he left, Luo Chong looked at You Zhi who was sitting next to him and suddenly said to him.

"I heard that you are going to marry Jiang Lei, who has the Jiang family?"

"Ah?"

You Zhi didn't react at once. Could it be that it was not what he thought?
