Frontier Army Warrior

Chapter 455 Kneel down and apologize

At this time, a soldier ran over, leaned over and whispered in Lin Feng's ear.

"General, someone from Yinzhou Prefecture has arrived."

"Oh, who?"

"It's Wu Sheng, the Left Guard Officer of the Yinzhou Military Supervision Department, with five hundred men."

After hearing this, Lin Feng felt angry.

I came here in person to rescue you and fight the Tartars. Why can't even a decent official come forward?

"Let Lin Qiaomei go over and talk to him."

After saying that, he ignored it.

The soldier immediately turned around and ran towards Lin Qiaomei's military base.

When Wu Sheng received the news, he hurriedly brought a team of 500 cavalrymen and rushed over.

He was afraid that people would continue to cause unrest and the death toll would continue to rise.

The Qingshui Army is not to be trifled with.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he reached the canal.

Fortunately, there was no further fighting.

All the cavalry dispersed and blocked the way in front of more than a thousand villagers, while they dismounted and went to look for Lin Feng.

Wu Sheng saw the canal filled with injured villagers and became angry.

Lin Feng is really disrespectful to Yinzhou Prefecture. They are just a bunch of ordinary people, why is he so cruel?

Before he saw Lin Feng, he saw Lin Qiaomei strolling towards him.

Wu Sheng had seen this pretty female general in Lingdouzi Castle.

Although we haven't spoken, I feel familiar with his face.

Cheng Liang and Dai Zhixing also rushed over, and the four of them entered a simple workshop.

As soon as he entered the room, Wu Sheng asked, "Where is General Lin Feng?"

Lin Qiaomei only uttered one word: "Busy."

Wu Sheng took a breath and said, "You guys are going too far. How come so many people were hurt?"

Lin Qiaomei glanced at him and asked, "Are you here to call me to task?"

"I'm here to solve the problem. Both sides need to have an attitude."

Wu Sheng suppressed his anger and tried to calm down.

"What kind of attitude do you want?"

A smile appeared on Lin Qiaomei's face.

"You were the ones who hurt him, right?"

Wu Sheng pointed outside the house and asked.

Lin Qiaomei nodded.

"Yes, it was my order."

Wu Sheng gritted his teeth.

“Why are so many people hurt?”

Seeing Wu Sheng about to go berserk, Lin Qiaomei said calmly.

"I like it."

"you..."

Wu Sheng's eyes widened and he was unable to continue speaking for a moment.

Lin Qiaomei said disdainfully.

"Speak frankly, a man, why are you fussy like that? What do you want?"

Wu Sheng once again suppressed the anger in his heart.

"You've hurt so many people, you have to give an explanation, right?"

"Why don't you take me to the government office to complain?"

Wu Sheng couldn't bear it any longer and slapped his thigh.

"Do you think I don't dare?"

Lin Qiaomei looked at him sideways.

"Well, I don't think you dare."

Dai Zhixing kept pulling at Wu Sheng's collar from behind.

Cheng Liang looked at the two of them with a smile on his face.

Wu Sheng took a few deep breaths to calm his anger.

"This is Xixia Yinzhou Prefecture, not Zhenxilingdou. You should have some rules for what you do. How am I supposed to explain this to the higher-ups for indiscriminately harming innocent people?"

"Alas, you still haven't told me what to do. Let's not waste each other's time, okay?"

"Well, in that case, let me tell you something. You injured so many people, so you should pay compensation. The one who injured them should take responsibility. That's all."

Lin Qiaomei nodded: "Okay, I was the one who hurt him, so I'll take the responsibility. I want compensation, right? How much do you want?"

Seeing her so happy, Wu Sheng felt a little calmer.

"Master Dai, please calculate how much compensation should be demanded and have the villagers nominate someone to come forward and make it clear."

Dai Zhixing looked confused. He felt that the other party agreed too readily and there must be something wrong.

But Wu Sheng was of higher rank than him, so he had to listen to him.

Hesitantly, Dai Zhixing walked out.

The three remaining people in the room remained silent, waiting for the result in silence.

After a long while, Dai Zhixing led Liang Shuisheng into the house.

"Sir Wu, a total of 347 people were injured. Based on the compensation of 10 taels per person, the total is 3,470 taels of silver."

Wu Sheng nodded and said "hmm".

Seeing that no one was talking, Dai Zhixing had no choice but to continue.

"This is Liang Shuisheng, the village chief of Liangjiabu Village. He demanded that the perpetrators of the assault apologize publicly."

Still no one spoke.

"Well, also, the canal project must be stopped immediately, and all large groups of people must leave Yinzhou."

After Dai Zhixing said this, he looked at Lin Qiaomei worriedly.

Seeing that she still had no expression, he continued.

"Uh... Also, the person apologizing needs to... kneel down and apologize in public."

Dai Zhixing said this hesitantly.

Wu Sheng frowned: "Nonsense, was this something you villagers came up with?"

Liang Shuisheng quickly bowed and said, "Sir, we have hurt so many people. Just a light apology is already very forgiving."

Dai Zhixing quickly smiled and said, "That's right. We're talking now. You can accept the conditions or not. It all depends on the willingness of both parties."

In fact, Dai Zhixing and Liang Shuisheng had already discussed it, and the main purpose was to let the Dazong people withdraw from Yinzhou and abandon the canal project.

They put forward conditions that are difficult for the other party to accept in order to have a basis for advance or retreat.

Wu Sheng sighed and turned to look at Lin Qiaomei.

"What do you say?"

Lin Qiaomei still had a smile on her face as she glanced at the people in the room.

When she saw Liang Shuisheng, she knew at first glance that he was not a good person because of his thick face and ruffian tone.

"Well, the conditions are indeed quite lenient."

Lin Qiaomei's words made Dai Zhixing and Liang Shuisheng a little confused.

Why, you agreed to everything so readily?

This doesn't seem right.

The two looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes.

Wu Shengze breathed a sigh of relief. He felt that apologizing in public was fine, but kneeling down was a bit too much.

After all, there are reasons why people hurt others, and they don't do it for no reason.

However, Lin Qiaomei agreed immediately, so that she could give an explanation to the people.

"Okay, that's best. They didn't do it well either. Let's both exercise some restraint."

After saying that, he stood up.

"General Lin, let's go and apologize now."

Lin Qiaomei sat there motionless, blinking her eyes.

"Kneeling down to apologize is fine, but do you want me to build a grave for you?"

Everyone was stunned, not understanding what she meant.

Liang Shuisheng quickly said, "I have my own grave, so I don't need to trouble you."

Lin Qiaomei smiled at him and said, "We have to take you there, otherwise how are you going to leave?"

Wu Sheng said impatiently, "You don't need to send them. They have received compensation and can go and heal their injuries on their own."

Lin Qiaomei shook her head: "I've never heard of the dead handling their own affairs."

"Ok?"

Several people were even more confused and stared at her with frowns.

Lin Qiaomei stood up, brushed off the non-existent dust on her body, and spoke as she walked out of the house.

"Alright, when you're all dead, I'll kneel down and apologize to you, and I'll also find a good feng shui place to bury you."

After saying that, the man had already walked out of the room.

Her guards were standing at the door. When they saw Lin Qiaomei wave her hand, they immediately drew their swords and stopped Wu Sheng, Dai Zhixing and Liang Shuisheng who had followed her out.

Cheng Liang quickly shouted, "Hey, let me out! I didn't ask you to kneel down and apologize."
