Coincidentally, at this moment, the cavalryman galloped back quickly.
“Marquis. I’ve investigated clearly. The harassed woman’s house lives in an
alley beside the school grounds. When I went around to ask, she panicked and hid very quickly. She thought that a government soldier was here to capture her to serve men and was so frightened that she knelt and begged for mercy.”
When Ye Siming heard this, he raised his cold eyebrows and looked at the tall and skinny man. “Looks like you guys often do such things.” ReadNovelFull.com
The tall and skinny man’s lips twitched in disdain.
The cavalryman approached Ye Siming and reminded him in a low voice, “Marquis, let’s forget about this matter. Similar things have happened in the past, but General Song didn’t take it to heart.”
He looked at the tall and skinny man and said meaningfully, “This person is the nephew of Grand Historian Huang from the History Bureau.”
When Song Quan was around, many soldiers in the camp came from aristocratic backgrounds.
Their families had sent their children here to pass the time for a few years, then get an official title through Song Quan, gaining a good monthly salary. It was no wonder that the tall and skinny man was so arrogant. It turned out that he felt that he had a backer.
However, Ye Siming had not been in a good mood since just now.
At some point, his slender and fair fingertips had already grabbed the hilt of the sword at his waist.
The youth was tall and slender. Under his jade headgear, his cold eyebrows coupled with his dark eyes gave off a sharp feeling.
He slowly walked up to the tall and skinny man and said in a cold voice, “Put out your hand.”
The tall and skinny man couldn’t help but burst out laughing. “Why? Does the Marquis still want to be like a child and hit my hand? Haha—!” Suddenly!
There was the sound of a sharp sword being unsheathed.
The tall and skinny man’s laughter stopped abruptly!
Right on the heels of that, he let out a violent scream.
“My fingers! It hurts, it hurts so much!” Apart from his thumb, the other four fingertips on the tall and skinny man’s left hand had been cut off.
The parts where the sword edge passed by left sharp and uniform cuts.
The soldiers behind them, including the short soldier who was standing next to the tall and skinny soldier, were stunned.
He stood the closest, but even he didn’t see how Marquis Yongye attacked.
He only felt a flash of white light before his eyes and then blood instantly splashed!
A few fingers fell onto the ground.
Ye Siming held the sword in his right hand and swung the blade with a cold expression.
The blood on the blade left a thin line of blood on the ground.
The tall and skinny man knelt on the ground, holding his bleeding left hand and wailing. His face was red and his veins were popping out.
Ye Siming looked down from above with a cold gaze, like a high and mighty god.
“Song Quan is already dead. His Majesty handing you guys to me is like throwing away a group of trash to me. If you don’t want to be thrown away, you have to first learn to abide by my rules and listen to me.”
With a “clank—I’, he sheathed his sword.
Everyone was quiet as cicadas, not daring to speak.
Ye Siming’s eyes were sluggish, but his expression was arrogant and disdainful.
“I don’t have that much time to teach you what military rules are. However, if I were to find out that you guys bully women, set fires, kill, and plunder, you’ll either lose your fingers like him in lighter situations or lose your lives in more serious situations.”
As the youth spoke, he curled his lips and smiled. There was a hint of terrifying cruelty in his eyes.
“As for how you’ll die, I have the final say in my military camp. If you don’t want to make me angry, don’t challenge my bottom line.”
When everyone heard this, they immediately put away their contemptuous thoughts.
It was no wonder His Majesty had left them to Marquis Yongye to manage.
Initially, they thought that His Majesty hated Song Quan, so he casually threw them to this youth and left them to fend for themselves.
Unexpectedly, His Majesty had found a ruthless person to deal with them!
