The ministers instantly forgot their knee pain, or rather, the pain was so intense that they lost all feeling in their knees. Instead, they turned their heads and looked up at Xu Qing.

He asked with his eyes: "And then what happened?" What did the prefect of Suizhou say?

But Murong Anle frowned.

If I remember correctly, there was a rebellion in Suizhou not long ago, although the prefect of Suizhou later reported that the rebellion was fake.

But His Majesty still sent people to investigate.

Later... it seems there was no substantial progress.

Why does Xu Qing now put the Suizhou murder case first in his story?

Furthermore, what does it mean that the main culprit disguised himself as a relative of the prefect of Suizhou?

It's quite possible that the case is being investigated in Suizhou, and the prefect of Suizhou, in order to avoid being implicated, has conspired to fabricate a story.

If it weren't for the inappropriate setting, Murong Anle would have grabbed Xu Qing by the neck and asked him what he was doing.

Xu Qing, however, remained motionless, waiting for Murong Yue to give her some approval.

What could Murong Yue say?

She couldn't understand anything, but through her powerful brain, she pieced together the general idea of ​​why Xu Qing was beating people up.

Someone committed murder.

And there doesn't seem to be any reason for it.

That would be a complete waste of ingredients.

We must not waste! We must be thrifty!

(▼ヘ▼#)

A look of disgust crossed Murong Yue's face as she waved her hand in the air in front of her. "Kill him."

In the human base, food was extremely precious, and she had seen people who wasted food be beaten to death.

She heard it clearly: five people were killed and five ingredients were wasted.

Of course they should be killed!

Otherwise, we would waste even more ingredients.

Xu Qing then continued, "Yes, Your Majesty, the main culprit in the Suizhou murder case will be executed before the end of the year."

Then, Xu Qing lifted his official robe and knelt on the ground again.

"Your Majesty, the murder case in Suizhou involves the prefect of Suizhou, who was the top scholar you personally appointed three years ago."

"Your Majesty knows that this is an overstepping of authority, but for the sake of the people of Qing, I implore Your Majesty to thoroughly investigate Yang Yong, the prefect of Suizhou."
