Strange Tales: You're an Official, but you're raising a bunch of Demonessess? - Chapter 39

Chapter 39: How can Your Majesty… want to see my prisoner who is about to be imprisoned?

“The minister obeys the order!” Bai Yu nodded with a smile. However, there was no action: “It’s just… you have to say first come, first served!”

“Before Your Majesty, someone invited me first. What should I do?”

“How many?”

Everyone: …

Green-clothed secret guard: ???

Who can be more dignified than being on a pilgrimage? First come, first come, what a joke! The Holy Majesty invites you into the palace. Why don’t you quickly bow your knees, thank us, and then come with us? Now, what nonsense are you talking about?

At this moment, several secret guards in Green-clothed also saw him. The guy the emperor said he wanted to invite really didn’t look like a normal person.

Is this what a normal person can say? If you say this, you should suffer at least eighty boards!

Insolent and willful, without borders. That was to say, the Holy Majesty said to ‘please,’ otherwise, they would really forcefully pack this person and escort him into the palace.

However, when Bai Yu said this, Yang Shancheng and his group trembled suddenly. Panic filled his face. They were not fools, so they could tell Bai Yu was talking about them.

Elder brother! Father! Uncle!

This is the emperor!

What are you crazy about? Please let it go, please let it go!

Treat us like farts!

“Your Excellency, what is the meaning of this?” The secret guard in green cloth had never seen such a person before and frowned slightly, looking at this young man with no fear or humility.

“Taking the literal meaning, huh.”

“Someone accused me of intentionally murdering and robbing women! Now they want to arrest me and bring me to the government~.”

Bai Yu said with a smile, “How could Your Majesty…”

“Want to meet my soon-to-be prisoner?”

“Boom!” The words were like a heavy hammer, hitting the hearts of Yang Shancheng and his party hard.

This man really has no scruples! To say such words in front of the emperor’s waist badge, Bai Yu’s fate is still unknown. But these people are really going to die!

“Bang, bang, bang!”

“Misunderstanding, My Lord, it’s all a misunderstanding!”

“Please be magnanimous!”

“Forgive me, forgive me!”

Several arresters fell to their knees, kowtowed, and begged in fear.

Yang Shancheng had a noble status and might have a way to save himself. But they were just a few small shrimps, little ones! He was crushed to death casually!

Retribution came too fast! “To beheaded…” The words that Bai Yu said not long ago, like a sinister spell, kept echoing in their ears.

“Hey~. Magnanimous?” Bai Yu chuckled lightly. “I hate words like magnanimity!”

“I ask, Your Majesty, what should the law be like for officials to use their power for personal gain, abuse their power, and arrest people at will?” He looked at the badge in the hands of the Tsing Yi secret guard and asked indifferently.

“Beheaded!” The secret guard in green cloth held a sign in his hand. It was like the emperor’s presence.

When Bai Yu asked such a question, he should answer it carefully.

“Forgive me!” Several arresters trembled suddenly when they heard this. The categorical word “cut” seemed like a guillotine had fallen on their necks, which made their hearts shudder.

“I ask again, if the people make arrests and slaves of their right, fabricate crimes at will, falsely accuse and humiliate civilians, and practice private law, what should we do according to the law?”

“Three tribes of Yi!” Yang Shancheng, who was kneeling on the ground, went limp all over, and the urine from his lower body finally couldn’t be clamped and leaked out.

Bai Yu chuckled lightly, “That’s good! I believe the adults will truthfully report to His Majesty what happened today, right?” He asked towards a couple of green-clad secret guards.

“These people will not be left behind, will they?” The few green-clothed secret guards responded in a deep voice: “Yes!”

“This young scholar… really presumptuous. Dare to use His Majesty’s hand to remove enemies for him.”

“Haha, okay, that’s enough!” Bai Yu smiled casually without even looking at anyone else. Just nodded slightly towards the other party: “Let’s go!”

“Please!” The Green-Clothed secret guard was left alone to deal with the mess. The rest of the people took Bai Yu and left quickly.

After everyone had left, the small tavern was still immersed in the shocking miracle that had just happened and hadn’t recovered. People kept whispering about the unexpected events.

“Why did I see the badge of the Holy Majesty?”

“Bai Yu? Who the hell is he?”

“This is the end of Young Master Yang!”

After a brief silence, people couldn’t help but wonder, who is that young scholar? He had a unique quality, acting unexpectedly and independently, attracting everyone’s attention.

Shopkeeper Li, the only one who knew how extraordinary this scholar was, watched Bai Yu leave with a deep and inexplicable expression. He realised that this young Mr. Bai, who had exceeded his expectations, was not ordinary.

It’s time for Bai Yu to embark on a legendary journey. Shopkeeper Li, understanding the potential of this ‘friend,’ decided to invest a hundred gold for the most valuable investment. He contemplated inviting a storyteller to write a legend for this extraordinary friend.
