Censor Zhang couldn’t help but admire this youth even more.
His resistance to cold was better than ordinary people’s.
Ye Siming looked at the well-arranged village houses in the rain.
The one he was staying in was at the top of the hill.
Therefore, he could see the other villages below.
It was getting late and most people had gone to sleep.
The soldiers patrolled back and forth in the rain.
Ye Siming said calmly, “Lord Zhang, if you have anything to say, why don’t you make it short?”
Censor Zhang nodded. “Will the soldiers captured during the day be sent back to the capital tomorrow morning and sent to prison?”
Ye Siming pursed his thin lips and thought for a moment.

“I’ve never encountered such a situation before. However, in the end, people who disobey His Majesty’s imperial edict should be executed for their crimes.
However…”
However, Censor Zhang didn’t have the right to act first and report later.
Therefore, he could only suggest sending these people to prison first.
Ye Siming took a deep breath and said in a low voice, “Don’t go through so much trouble. Just execute them on the spot.”
Censor Zhang was stunned for a moment. “This…”
“The imperial edict says that if there are officials who don’t obey the rules this time, Bai Yi has the right to act first and report later. I’m here on Bai Yi’s behalf. It’s the same even if I kill them.
He waved his hand and made the decision.
“Is there anything else?”
When the youth looked at Censor Zhang with his black and cold eyes…
Even though Censor Zhang was over 50 years old and had seen all kinds of people, he couldn’t help but feel a chill on his back when he was stared at by such a pair of eyes.
This feeling was like walking in the dark night without any lights and being enveloped by danger from somewhere.
Fear spread from the bottom of her feet.
He shook his head. “There’s nothing else. Marquis, rest early.”
However, at this moment, the half-closed wooden door was suddenly pulled open.
A sleepy childish voice sounded. “Wait.”
Ye Siming and Censor Zhang turned around.
Gu Nuo’er wrapped herself in a small blanket as if she was wearing a robe.
She rubbed her eyes with her fair hands.
She yawned sleepily.
“I just heard you guys say that you want to deal with those soldiers?”
Ye Siming pursed his lips.
He just didn’t want to scare the child. He didn’t expect her to eavesdrop even though she was about to fall asleep.
Ye Siming didn’t refute and nodded.
Censor Zhang quickly asked, “Your Highness, do you have any other suggestions?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGu Nuo’er pouted. “How many of those soldiers are there?”
“After a rough calculation, there are about 60 or more people.” “Oh, there are so many people. Wouldn’t killing them tire our own soldiers?” Gu Nuo’er’s black eyes were misty and filled with sleepiness.
However, her words were extremely clear. “Therefore, let’s not kill them for now. Let them do things and help out!
“Just tell them that if they work hard, they can reduce their crimes. Otherwise, regardless of whether they escaped or went back, they would die.
“Those who escape will implicate nine generations of their family. Those who are dishonest will be sentenced to death when they return. If they don’t want to die, they’ll have to help out according to our arrangements.”
Censor Zhang felt that this idea was very reliable.
He quickly asked, “What does Your Highness plan to get them to do?”
“There are many things… It’s very important to boil medicine, cook food, clean, and take turns to be on guard duty.”
A cold wind blew over and she gathered the blanket with her small hands. “There are so many people here. They might not have come willingly. Most of them shouldn’t be able to disobey Cabinet Elder’s orders. Their crimes don’t deserve death. Moreover, it’s not too late to make up for it.”
Censor Zhang shouted, “Wonderful!”
He looked at Ye Siming, who nodded indifferently. “Do as Her Highness says.”
“I’ll make the arrangements now.” Censor Zhang left excitedly.
Ye Siming lowered his eyes and looked at the child. “I told you to sleep. Why did you come out?”
Gu Nuo’er reached out her small hand and let him hold it.. “If Elder Brother
Siming doesn’t coax me, I won’t be able to sleep!”
