Chapter 522 Extra: Raiding the Northern Governor's Mansion
Seeing that Gu Che was still struggling and cursing, Xie Hanchuan swung his arm and slapped Gu Che across the face.
The slap was so forceful that it dislocated Gu Che's jaw, rendering him unable to utter a single word.
"I am Princess Changping of the Imperial Court, let's see who dares to challenge me!" Seeing that the soldiers still wanted to fight them with their weapons, Lin Luoxi revealed her trump card.
When Chen Dong, a soldier standing in the first row, saw Lin Luoxi holding the waist token representing the princess, a look of joy flashed in his eyes.
"Greetings, Princess Changping." Princess Changping's arrival in Beizhou means that Beizhou is saved.
Although they had never met Princess Changping, they had heard about her deeds and admired her from the bottom of their hearts.
Once the first person kneels down, a second person will follow...
"Considering you are not the main culprits, as long as you atone for your crimes, you can be exempted from punishment..." Looking at the thousands of people kneeling in front of her, Lin Luoxi decided to treat them leniently.
"Thank you, Princess Changping." Chen Dong led the entire army in kowtowing to Lin Luoxi in unison.
"You, drag him back." Lin Luoxi saw Chen Dong's quick thinking and told him to drag Gu Che back.
Today, she plans to start by dealing with the Gu family. As for the bad practices in the military camp, she'll deal with those pests after she's dealt with the Gu family.
"Yes!" Chen Dong happily took the rope that Lin Luoxi handed him.
Gu Che was used to bullying others in the military camp, and Chen Dong and the others had long been fed up with him. Now that he was in their hands, they were sure to make things difficult for him.
As for Gu Weiwei, whenever she was unhappy, she would run to the military camp and take it out on them. Now that she had the chance, she would be letting Lin Luoxi down if she didn't make this bitch pay for the opportunity.
After Lin Luoxi, Xie Hanchuan, and their children boarded the carriage, they also mounted their horses.
Sometimes they sped up to catch up, sometimes they slowed down to wait for Lin Luoxi and the others. Gu Che and Gu Weiwei, being dragged along by the horse, couldn't keep up with its speed and could only be pulled forward.
When Chen Dong's horse slowed down, they hadn't even had time to get up before they were trampled by the horses behind them, a truly horrific sight.
When Chen Dong brought Lin Luoxi and the others to the entrance of the Governor's Mansion, Gu Che and Gu Weiwei had already been dragged so far that their original appearances were unrecognizable.
"How dare you! Don't you see where you are? Have you no patience for this place? Daring to cause trouble here is suicidal! Get out!"
Chen Dong and his group dragged Gu Che and Gu Weiwei to the entrance of the Governor's Mansion, where they were driven away by the guards.
"Hmph, of course I know where this place is, but it will soon change owners..."
With Lin Luoxi backing him up, Chen Dong wasn't afraid of the guards at the Governor's Mansion entrance and retorted loudly.
"You're asking for death!" The guards at the governor's mansion thought Chen Dong and his group were there to cause trouble, so they drew their swords and confronted them.
"Stop!" Lin Luoxi stepped down from the carriage and looked coldly at the guards at the entrance of the governor's mansion.
"I am Princess Changping, personally bestowed by the Emperor. Because Gu Tongyun abuses his power to oppress the people, forms cliques for personal gain, and embezzles military funds… I have come to investigate and seal off the Governor-General's office…"
Lin Luoxi wasn't just waiting for the Gu family to call for reinforcements time and time again in the mountains; she already had evidence of the Gu family's crimes in her hands, and she was here to raid their property.
Lin Luoxi appeared at the gate of the governor's mansion with her army, attracting a crowd of onlookers from a distance.
The people genuinely hope that this time, a good official will emerge to uphold justice for them and truly serve the people.
Lin Luoxi didn't know what the people in the distance were thinking, but seeing the guards at the governor's mansion wearing thick cotton-padded coats and the thin clothes of the people in the distance, she knew that the governor's mansion had done a lot of things, such as exploiting the people.
"You take your men and come inside with me. Bring out all the members of the Gu family." Lin Luoxi pointed at Chen Dong with her slender hand and said.
"Yes, Princess Changping." Chen Dong, whose name was called, was filled with excitement and led his brothers into the governor's mansion with Lin Luoxi.
No wonder the rumored Princess Zhang Changping enjoyed confiscating the homes of corrupt officials so much; it turns out this is what it feels like to have one's property confiscated, and he seems to enjoy it too.
"Let's see who dares!" The commotion at the governor's mansion also attracted the attention of the old matriarch of the Gu family, as well as her second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth sons, and countless other children.
"Wow, your Gu family is certainly thriving!"
"However, their genes aren't very good, and there aren't many that are presentable."
Lin Luoxi glanced around and found that whether it was the Gu family's sons or grandsons, they all looked as petty and unsophisticated as the old lady, none of them possessing a dignified and imposing air.
Looking up at the sky above the Gu family's residence, there were many vengeful spirits floating around, especially around the old matriarch, who was surrounded by a dense swarm of vengeful spirits. It was clear that the Gu family's disregard for human life was deeply ingrained.
"Pfft~" Chen Dong and the others who came in with Lin Luoxi to ransack the house couldn't help but laugh when they heard Lin Luoxi's blunt words.
Unexpectedly, Princess Changping was a woman of strong emotions, and they really liked her clear-cut love and hate.
"You, you, you shameless woman, how dare you make fun of my children's and grandchildren's appearances..." Old Madam She trembled with rage when she heard Lin Ruoxi mocking her children for being ugly.
"Whoosh..." Xie Hanchuan noticed the old woman's foul mouth. He flicked a few marbles with his index finger, sending them straight away from Old Madam She's stinking mouth.
"ah!"
"Pooh!"
Xie Hanchuan knocked out her few remaining front teeth, and also smashed Old Madam She's mouth in the process.
The Gu family's sons, daughters-in-law, grandchildren, and other relatives glared angrily at Lin Luoxi, Xie Hanchuan, and the others upon seeing the pitiful state of Old Madam She.
“Princess Changping, General Changsheng, don’t go too far. My elder brother is, after all, a governor-general…” Gu’s second son stepped forward and angrily accused Lin Luoxi and Xie Hanchuan.
"Heh, I'm going too far? When you're oppressing ordinary people, why don't you admit you're going too far..."
"When you were squeezing the people's wealth and indulging in extravagance, why didn't you admit that you went too far?"
"You shameless bastard, how dare you accuse me of going too far?"
With each sentence Lin Luoxi spoke, she took a step forward, looking at the Gu family members, each of them wearing a gorgeous and warm cloak and holding a hand warmer, truly pampered beyond measure.
"I have a problem: if someone points a finger at me, I want to break it..." Before she could finish speaking, Lin Luoxi crushed the index finger of the second son of the Gu family into powder.
Lin Luoxi crushed the fingers of the second son of the Gu family and swept her eyes across the Gu family members present with murderous intent.
"Ah!" Gu's second son didn't expect Lin Luoxi to attack so suddenly. His index hand, due to its comminuted fracture, was completely unable to support him and drooped down like a chicken with a twisted neck.
