Situ Xuan suddenly came to her senses, but she was already crying.
I saw it in my eyes, and felt a little unbearable in my heart.
I dropped the short knife on the ground and said, "Don't be afraid, I have everything, and I will have it from now on."
The rest of Situ Xuan's clothes had been torn by the two guards, and her delicate body was trembling.
I didn't care about my bleeding palms at all, but took off my coat and wrapped it around Situ Xuan's body.
Immediately, before Situ Xuan could react, I had already picked up her body...
At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps at the door.
It was Dong Shoucheng who came over with a few guards.
As soon as Dong Shoucheng saw this scene, he glanced at the two guards lying on the ground begging for mercy, and it became clear to him.
"You two bastards!!"
Dong Shoucheng was furious and punched them repeatedly.
The two guards wailed incessantly and said quickly: "Young Master, spare your life, High Priest, please spare your life... We two brothers know that we were wrong and never dare to touch Situ Xuan again... Please give us a chance to change our ways, Young Master."
It's the time to employ people, and we two brothers will serve the young master wholeheartedly from now on."
Another guard also followed suit: "Yes, young master, we have no merit but hard work. We were obsessed for a while..."
When Dong Shoucheng saw this, he couldn't help but soften his heart and plead with them: "Young Master, it was my lax control that allowed these two gangsters to join the escort team. Please punish me... But they are right. Now the tribe is in the process of
When it comes to employing people, the two of them are pretty loyal and can reach out pretty well. Young Master, look at it, why don’t you give them a good beating and give them a chance to change..."
After Dong Shoucheng finished speaking, I raised my eyebrows!
There was a ray of coldness in my eyes. Dong Shoucheng took one look and immediately did not dare to speak again.
I glanced around and said word by word: "If every brother in the escort team uses this excuse to hurt and humiliate other ethnic groups, does that mean I have to give them a chance to change their ways?"
Dongshou Cheng remained as silent as a cicada.
I shouted loudly: "I don't need people with corrupt moral character, no matter how loyal they are or how skilled they are! If you make a mistake, you must accept punishment!!"
When the two guards heard this, they burst into tears.
I continued: "Dong Shoucheng, according to the clan rules, whoever bullies the weak women of the tribe should be punished with what crime?"
Dongshou Chengdao said: "According to the clan rules, the lighter punishment will be fifty sticks, and the severe punishment will be expelled from the tribe!"
When the two guards heard that this clan rule could save their lives, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
I glanced at Situ Xuan who had passed out in my arms, and said to Dong Shoucheng calmly: "Your clan rules are for ordinary people. As my escort, those who make mistakes will be punished twice as much!"
"What do you mean, young master?"
"Executed to death and shown to the public!!"
After I said this, I immediately turned around and left with Situ Xuan in my arms, leaving them where they were.
As I was about to go out, I heard Dong Shoucheng's rough voice.
"I will obey the orders of my young master!!"
…………
…………
I carried Situ Xuan to my room and let her sleep on my bed.
I sat aside, covered her with the quilt, and took another look at her rough little hands.
I took out the nectar and milk that Dong Shoucheng gave me half an hour ago. Mixing these things together is very effective for hand protection.
Situ Xuan turned and trembled many times throughout the night. In the second half of the day, the poor girl began to cry for no reason. It was not until dawn that she fell asleep...
After settling down with Situ Xuan, I walked out of the room, looked up, and saw the faintly brightening sky. The seven Big Dipper stars in the north were a little closer than they were at midnight last night...
After a while, there was a loud noise outside.
I walked out and looked not far away. I saw that the two scoundrels who bullied Situ Xuan last night had turned into two cold corpses. They were tied to two wooden stakes by Dong Shoucheng and surrounded by people.
There were many tribal people who were talking about it.
"Dear fellow citizens, these two men bullied and forced Miss Situ Xuan last night. They committed a heinous crime. The young master was furious and has now beheaded them as a warning to others..." Dong Shoucheng said loudly.
The tribesmen immediately exploded. Many of them knew that the two dead scum had been praised by me before, but now they became corpses.
Some people said in disappointment: "If I remember correctly, Situ Xuan is the daughter of a former priest. I didn't expect that the young master would kill two loyal guards for such a woman..."
"Yes, who is Situ Xuan? She is an ominous person. Young Master is really not worthy of standing up for such a woman."
But before the sound had time to spread, a louder sound suddenly sounded.
"Fellow people, please listen to me."
The sound came, it was Dong Yunfei coming over.
Dong Shoucheng has a rough face but is not good at speaking; but Dong Yunfei is much smarter than him and has good eloquence.
Dong Yunfei came to the crowd and said in a loud voice: "Fellow tribesmen, do you all think that the young master is ruthless? The young master killed two loyal guards for a slave girl who did not want to continue?"
As soon as Dong Yunfei finished speaking, many ethnic groups looked at each other and talked about it. Everyone had their own opinions, but many people still acquiesced to Dong Yunfei's statement.
Dong Shoucheng on the side said quickly: "Yunfei, what are you talking about? Is the young master such a heartless person?"
"Brother, please be patient."
Dong Yunfei comforted Dong Shoucheng, and then continued: "Dear fellow tribesmen, you think the young master is ruthless, but I just feel that it is precisely because the young master is affectionate that he does this!"
"I would like to ask everyone, before the young master came, did everyone have enough to eat? Did everyone have clothes to wear? No?"
"I would like to ask everyone, today, the young master can seek justice for the daughter of a erring priest, and distinguish between public and private matters. Next time, if any of you are bullied and persecuted, do you think the young master will also seek justice for you?
Justice?"
When Dong Yunfei finished speaking, all the people below fell silent.
But immediately, Dong Yunfei shouted with a louder voice: "I am here to tell everyone that today the young master can punish the murderer of a erring priest's daughter, then tomorrow, the young master can also punish every bullied nation.
Demand justice!!”
"That's right. Since the young master came, we have all had food to eat and clothes to wear. If the young master can help a slave girl today, he will certainly be able to uphold justice for everyone tomorrow..." said an old man from the tribe.
"We all believe in the young master!!"
More ethnic people also shouted in unison, and for a while, the crowd was excited...
I saw this scene in my eyes, and felt extremely warm in my heart. It was precisely because of their trust that I became more determined to protect them.
