816 Teaching by Example
Xiao Yin showed a hint of agreement, but quickly composed himself and said softly, "My lady, this is absolutely true. It's normal that some people don't know. These constables and patrolmen are all officials, so the punishment will naturally be handled internally."
There was no longer the need for public execution at the execution ground as a warning to the world.
He explained gently, "The magistrate has his own considerations for this matter. It's not just here; the same applies to other parts of Dalong Prefecture. Those who have committed offenses in the past could often be forgiven by paying some money, but now that's much more difficult."
Seeing his wife calm down, he said softly, "I've heard there are habitual cattle thieves in the area. When they're caught, they falsely accuse others. If it were before, after investigation, a few taels of silver would have been enough to satisfy both parties."
Seeing his wife's questioning and curious expression, as if she wanted to hear more, he sighed softly and said, "Guess what happened!"
Those who steal cattle are beheaded, and their families, who are also known for bullying their neighbors, are also beheaded, thus preventing future troubles!
He sighed softly, then straightened his posture and said in a clear voice, "If someone in the family wants a certain position, that's naturally a good thing. If they meet the requirements, they can be selected through normal means."
But one's heart must be upright and steady, able to resist temptation; otherwise, even if one dies, I cannot save them!
The wife nodded and said softly, "Thank you, my husband. You've worked hard. I'll talk to them about it later. Their choice is also their choice."
Husband, please be careful. Our child is currently in school and is doing very well; he will need your guidance and instruction in the future!
Xiao Yin nodded, thinking to himself that someone wanted him to marry their family's eldest daughter. He had been cautious and hadn't agreed at the time, but now it seemed he needed to be even more careful in the future.
In the military camp of Dalong Prefecture, the military flags fluttered in the wind.
Seeing that Fang Lin was preparing for various things, Captain Guan did not disturb him. Looking into the distance with a hint of excitement, he felt fearless as he held the Tiger-Slaying Hammer in his hand and donned his armor.
Fang Lin strode to Commandant Guan's side and respectfully said, "Greetings, General. Everything is ready; we will depart tomorrow."
Captain Guan nodded and said softly, "We'll go here honorably, and see how many demons and monsters are behind us."
Fang Lin remained calm, offering no objection, and bowed, saying, "Yes, General."
But a hint of worry appeared in Fang Lin's eyes! The plan had changed. Originally, they had planned to launch a night raid. With the support of the military formation, although Nanhe Prefecture was far away, they could arrive at night and catch the enemy off guard, which was better than a war of attrition.
If a war of attrition breaks out, we might not be able to outlast the people in the city, and there's also the uncertainty about the Fire Spirit Sect in Nanhe, or other reinforcements.
Captain Guan shook his head slightly and said in a low voice, "Fang Lin, don't worry. Our mission is simply to lure them out, find out their true strength, and then eliminate them in one fell swoop!"
"Yes," Fang Lin replied softly, bowing.
As night fell and the military camp lights were turned off, Fang Lin said softly, "General, you should also go and get some rest. Don't worry, I'm here!"
Captain Guan smiled slightly and chuckled, "Fang Lin, it's time for you to settle down and start a family!"
Fang Lin looked slightly embarrassed and said softly, "General, no rush, no rush!"
Captain Guan didn't say much. Looking at Fang Lin, he said softly, "The farmland in the army has been allocated. If any soldiers need to start a family, they should be able to rest for a while after this battle."
If a suitable person is found, give them a long vacation so they can settle down and start a family.
In addition, Dalong Prefecture also has many other industries; priority will be given to arranging resettlement for military personnel's families.
Fang Lin bowed solemnly and said, "Thank you, sir."
Time flies, and the morning sun shines through the clouds, illuminating the world!
Beside He Chen, Wei Qinghui blushed and nestled in her lover's arms, unwilling to leave.
He gently embraced the beauty and whispered, "I need to leave for a few days. Don't stray too far from the manor."
The beautiful woman gently pulled him closer, nodded slightly, her face flushed with a shy blush, and whispered, "I hope you'll leave after we've fallen asleep."
He couldn't refuse the beauty's request.
In the afternoon, He Chen stood quietly in the courtyard, while the beauty was still fast asleep.
The seeds that Butler Jin had collected were placed in the courtyard, and Yuan Shen He Chen had already collected all of them.
Inside the space, the vegetables were already over a foot tall!
In the distance, there are also apples, pears, peaches, plums, apricots, dates, cherries, mulberries, grapes, kiwis, strawberries, blueberries, pomelos, loquats, tangerines, lychees, mangoes, longans, oranges, dragon fruit, olives, and durians.
All of them seemed to be visible fruits, making He Chen feel somewhat dazed, as if he had returned to his past life.
The primordial spirit was completely focused, practicing various sword techniques, each strike incredibly fast and precise, capable of cutting three thousand times in a single stroke, the blade gleaming in the sunlight.
With a single stroke, he cleaves the universe, severing the last thread of connection in the dark, disregarding cause and effect, cutting only the path he came from!
Slightly regaining her senses, the fragrance of Hanlin Bell wafted towards her. In her hand was a Dragon Tooth Knife, its blade and handle perfectly aligned, as if they were made by nature itself.
He Chen took a small step, and the beauty was drawn into his arms. He gently wiped away the non-existent sweat from her forehead and whispered, "You've worked hard!" As he spoke, he wrapped his arms around her waist and hugged her tightly.
Han Linling whispered, "Chen Lang," a hint of reluctance in her voice, unwilling to part, for her armor was not yet ready!
He Chen nodded slightly and said softly, "No rush, let Commander Guan and the others go first!"
Han Linling nodded gently and said softly, "Chen Lang, the auxiliary materials for the Divine Martial Armor are ready. I will bring you cold iron, silver, gold, red gold, refined gold, gale stone, meteorite iron, soul-suppressing iron, divine essence stone, and mystic spirit stone..."
Once they are fused together and solidified, the armor should be able to withstand the burst of Chen Lang's true energy.
A hint of confidence shone in Han Linling's eyes. The Divine Martial Armor was said to be able to withstand the might of heaven and even lightning. It was also because Han Linling had thrown all of her treasured spirit ores into it.
He Chen smiled slightly. He felt deeply indebted to the beauty and could not refuse her kindness. However, it would be better for Han Linling to wear the armor herself, as it would be safer.
He couldn't help but slightly extend his hand, and with the slightest movement, he felt the air explode, as if layers of steel bars were being ejected, whooshing out continuously.
He said softly, "I feel more at ease knowing my wife is wearing armor."
Han Linling gently touched her lover's skin, which was even more sturdy than a fortress of bronze and iron. A sense of agreement washed over her, and she whispered, "Alright, there's no rush. Let me check and estimate further, and see if there are any better options."
He Chen smiled slightly and couldn't help but embrace the beauty.
Han Linling's expression faltered, and she prepared to leave. Inside the boudoir, a beautiful woman wore a pink tank top.
Within the primordial spirit, He Chen, wielding the Dragon Fang Blade, instantly raised his aura to a new level.
In the darkness, like an infant, the destructive power, speed, strength, combined with true energy, weapons, and other supernatural abilities, are integrated together. It is not a simple addition, but perhaps a multiplication, or even an exponentiation.
