The young ruler, Yao Xiang, was still shouting and crying out for justice, "I led the country to surrender, I have made great contributions, you can't treat me like this."

"Gou Chen Dao Zun, I surrendered for my merit!"

"I want to see Gou Chen Dao Zun, I want to see Gou Chen Dao Zun!"

Yao Xiang's face was full of fear. Although he was being escorted by the heavenly soldiers, he still struggled violently and shouted. At the same time, the ministers also followed Yao Xiang and shouted because of fear in their hearts.

"We are willing to serve the Heavenly Court."

"Please spare us."

"Please spare our lives."

"I used to work like a slave in heaven."

Faced with the fear of death, these self-important nobles could no longer maintain their usual nobility, and could not even maintain the most basic calmness.

The common people watching around were all stunned, their faces filled with shock, as if their worldview had been greatly impacted.

It turns out that when facing death, these nobles behaved just like the common people, or even worse than them.

"A bunch of cowards." Someone in the crowd of onlookers cursed, immediately causing an uproar.

The common people's clamor was not directed at the person being scolded, but at the nobles. At that moment, the "sacredness" of these nobles was broken.

"It turns out that these nobles are also afraid of death. After all, without the titles and authority of the Dao Court, they are just a group of ordinary cultivators, no better than anyone else." A commoner commented sharply.

Just as Yao Xiang and the others were shouting, Tu Feng appeared with his heavenly soldiers. He shouted, "Anyone who shouts again will be killed on the spot."

This loud shout shocked everyone. Tu Feng then said to the ministers of Ganzhao Dao State, "After the trial, each will be sentenced. Those who deserve to be killed will be killed, and those who deserve to be released will be released. Why are you shouting?"

Yao Xiang then said to the heavenly soldiers in charge of the escort, "Take all these people out of the city. Anyone who dares to make a noise will be killed on the spot."

"Yes." The heavenly soldiers accepted the order loudly, and then escorted the silent ministers out of the city.

At this time, Mei Qin in the back also saw Tu Feng in front of her. She was a little dazed for a moment. Tu Feng at this time was so majestic and graceful that she could hardly believe that this person was Tu Feng.

But she was a little confused. Tu Feng was among the 200,000 soldiers who were once captured by the Heavenly Court. Wasn't it rumored that those 200,000 soldiers were killed by the Heavenly Court?

After a moment, Mei Qin suddenly reacted. She realized that Tu Feng was not dead. The person in front of her was Tu Feng. Not only was he not dead, but he held an important position in the Heavenly Court.

Thinking of this, Meiqin glanced in the direction where her husband's family was leaving, and then went back home with her two crying children.

...

That night, a celestial soldier arrived outside Tu Feng's cloud room and asked, "Is the law enforcement celestial general here?"

Tu Feng walked out of the cloud room and asked the heavenly soldier, "What's the matter?"

The Heavenly Soldier bowed and said, "A Taoist friend has come from outside the palace. He claims to be an old friend of yours, the Law Enforcement Heavenly General, and has come to ask to see the Law Enforcement Heavenly General."

"Who is it?" Tu Feng asked.

The Heavenly Soldier said, "It's a female Taoist friend named Mei Qin."

Tu Feng frowned, "Is it her?"

"Law Enforcement General, do you know this person?" asked the heavenly soldier.

Tu Feng nodded and said, "I know her, but she must have come to me to ask for mercy. She is the wife of a Shaoqing of Ganzhao Dao State."

When the Heavenly Soldier heard this, he immediately said, "Then I'll say you don't see guests?"

Tu Feng was about to agree, but after thinking for a moment, he said, "This person needs to be met."

After saying this, Tu Feng walked down the steps and said to the heavenly soldiers, "Go and ask Liu Lianlingguan to come over."

Tian Bing Wenyan immediately bowed and said, "Yes."

Not long after, Liu Lian, the spiritual officer of the Dongtian Doufu Army, arrived at Tu Feng's courtyard and asked, "Law Enforcement General, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Tu Feng stepped forward and bowed first, "Greetings to Officer Liu Ling."

Liu Lian smiled and said to Tu Feng, "There's no need to be so polite, General Law Enforcement. What do you want from me? Just tell me directly."

Tu Feng said, "That's right. I want to go see an old friend and ask Liu Lingguan to accompany me as a witness."

"Oh?" Liu Lian raised his eyebrows and asked, "What kind of old friend is it?"

Tu Feng then told Liu Lian the story of himself and Mei Qin. Liu Lian laughed heartily and patted Tu Feng on the shoulder, saying, "So that's how it happened. Now you can finally be considered to have returned home in glory."

Tu Feng shook his head and said, "That's why I want to ask Liu Lingguan to be my witness."

Liu Lian nodded and said, "It's good that you're so cautious, but you're overly cautious. I know you're so cautious because you've just entered the Heavenly Court, but my Heavenly Court is not so picky. Just go and see her directly. Just remember your identity as a law enforcement general. As long as you enforce the law impartially and uphold your integrity, then do what you should do and meet whoever you want to meet. It's no big deal."

Tu Feng stood there watching Liu Lian's departing back. Although his request was rejected, Tu Feng was not angry at all, because Liu Lian's words untied the knot in his heart.

After all, he still had some emotional issues, because he was originally a minister of the Ganzhao Dao Kingdom, and he only defected to the Heavenly Court halfway through.

Generally speaking, no one would trust such a person who came to join them halfway at the beginning. Now, after hearing Liu Lian's words, his knot in his heart was slowly untied.

"Liu Lingguan, how about I treat you to a drink in a few days?" Tu Feng asked loudly.

Liu Lian, who had already walked away, raised his hand and waved, and then a voice rang out: "Okay."
