Chapter 194: The upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked
"To tell you, Your Majesty, the Second Prince, it's just a matter of routine. This person has violated the rules of entering the city, so I came to investigate!" Du Nan said, making an excuse.
"Then I wonder what rules he violated when entering the city?" His Majesty the Second Prince said calmly.
Du Nan's eyes flashed and he looked at the burly man before, because he had no idea what laws Lin Ling had violated. Even if he had, it was a crime of casual suppression. He just didn't expect that His Majesty the Second Prince would come and cause things to change!
The burly man was frightened and immediately said: "His order to enter the city was fake, so we wanted to ask him about it, but he was arrogant and ignored the rules. Not only did he not cooperate, he injured the guard and broke my arm. Please give me a second."
Your Majesty the Prince will seek justice!"
The burly man was a little panicked at first, but he soon thought of an explanation in his mind, and was even proud of his explanation. This explanation would not only make him and others okay, but even allow the arrogant young man to be punished.
So after he finished speaking, he looked at Dunan as if he was taking credit.
Du Nan nodded secretly. This subordinate of his is good at adapting to the situation and is indeed a good player. The words he said now are flawless. I think His Majesty the Second Prince will have nothing to say!
After all, all the guards are our own. Even if the young man screams that he is wronged, it is just a family opinion. As long as everyone points to the young man as evidence, it will be difficult for the young man to defend himself.
"Haha, I reacted very quickly. In this case, I did break the rules!"
Hearing those words, Lin Ling instead of worrying, actually laughed softly.
These people have good calculations, but unfortunately they don't know that they are here at the invitation of His Majesty the Second Prince. In other words, no matter how much they quibble, it is useless, because the order to enter the city is true!
Moreover, Lin Ling glanced around and found that the entry order was still being stepped on by the burly man. Haha, he was really bold.
Sure enough, His Majesty the Second Prince's face turned gloomy, and he said calmly: "The order to enter the city is fake, but have you really seen it?"
"Have we all seen it?"
Everyone nodded, wanting to unanimously agree that Lin Ling was guilty.
"Be bold!"
His Majesty the Second Prince shouted loudly, shocking everyone and looking confused.
"The order to enter the city was given by this prince. Do you think it is a fake? Also, the order to enter the city from this prince is still being stepped on by you. Lin Ling came here at the invitation of the king, but you stopped him. What's more?
By slandering him, are you going against this king?"
The Second Prince spoke word by word.
"What?"
All the guards turned pale and couldn't believe their ears. The young man was actually invited by His Majesty the Second Prince. So, the order to enter the city was true. Oh my god, the guard captain's feet were still stepping on it.
The order to enter the city!
No one dared to speak!
The Second Prince walked forward step by step, came to Du Nan, and looked at him coldly: "Commander Du, I know you are the third brother's person, but you are too bold, knowing that Lin Ling is my person, you
How dare you touch him and insult him even more!"
Snap!
The Second Prince slapped him away.
Dunan's face was pale and he didn't dare to say anything. He lowered his head and said nothing.
Snap!
His Majesty the Second Prince slapped him again, and after three slaps in a row, he said: "Today, I will give you three slaps, and I will only give you three slaps. If this happens again next time, unless you do a good job with your hands and feet, you will not be beaten."
I realize that otherwise, this prince will kill you!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for not killing me!"
Dunan saluted respectfully, not daring to be arrogant. Then, he looked at Lin Ling from the corner of his eyes and saw a sneer on Lin Ling's face. That smile immediately made his internal organs burst into flames.
"As for those in office, you should be able to deal with their punishments!" His Majesty the Second Prince said again: "I hope you don't think of me as a fool who just wants to pass the test by deceiving me!"
As soon as he said this, the expressions of all the guards changed, knowing that a punishment was inevitable, and it would definitely not be light. After all, His Majesty the Second Prince had spoken, and it was impossible for the commander to deceive him secretly!
The light punishment may be a few months' salary and a fine of three thousand with a cane, while the more serious punishment may be dismissal or even a fine of five thousand with a cane!
"Lin Ling, come with me!"
Ignoring these minor characters, His Majesty the Second Prince looked at Lin Ling and smiled.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Lin Ling saluted, but did not walk away. Instead, he walked towards the burly man. For him, he didn't care about the other guards. After all, they were just ordered to act. However, this was not the case for the burly man, the captain of the guard team. Everything was on his mind.
It was caused by his greed.
"What do you want to do?"
The burly man suddenly panicked.
"Created out of nothing, the top beam is not straight and the bottom beam is crooked. What's the use of keeping such a black sheep!"
Lin Ling shook his head and came to the burly man. With a slight wave of the sword in his hand, he took away the burly man's life.
The burly man's neck showed sword marks, but his eyes were still wide open, extremely unwilling and regretful.
He thought this was his chance to make a career, but who knows, because of greed and wanting to please the commander-in-chief, he ended up dead!
Plop!
His body fell, making many people's hearts skip a beat.
That boy can't be offended at all!
Lin Ling put away the sword, glanced at Dunan briefly, then shrugged and left with His Majesty the Second Prince.
Du Nan's face turned red with anger. The enemy who killed his son was right in front of him, but he couldn't kill him. Instead, he watched the other party kill his henchman. After that, he left lightly.
This kind of anger is extremely frustrating!
Moreover, when the young man said that the upper beam was not straight and the lower beam was crooked, wasn't he just mocking him?
"Don't let me find a chance, otherwise I will kill you!" Dunan growled in his heart!
"Lin Ling, Prince Duan values you very much and praises you very much. It is my great honor that you are assisting me this time!"
Along the way, His Majesty the Second Prince did not put on airs. He walked side by side with Lin Ling and smiled in an extremely friendly manner.
"Your Majesty the Second Prince, thank you very much. Lin Ling is just a kid from the outer city. I just hope that I can help His Majesty the Second Prince!" Lin Ling said with a smile. I have to say that His Majesty the Second Prince is indeed the most kind to others among all the princes.
He was friendly and left a good impression on Lin Ling.
Of course, because he treats others in a friendly manner and does not often show his imposing manner, many people believe that His Majesty the Second Prince does not have the appearance of an emperor!
The kings of Yunhai in the past generations were born with the imperial aura. They were born to look down on the world, and their imperial appearance was very obvious. However, the fate of those who did not have the emperor's appearance was just to be a minister.
Of course, Lin Ling does not agree with this statement. He comes from another world and knows that martial arts can stabilize a country and that a powerful emperor can intimidate all civil and military officials, but virtue is also very important. Conquering people with virtue can also conquer the country.
.
It’s just that in this world, force is respected, so it’s not that outstanding in terms of “morality”.
As the two walked and talked, His Majesty the Second Prince would inadvertently express his views on Tianxuan Kingdom, etc. Lin Ling came from another world and had read various celebrity biographies, so naturally he had some opinions. After some exchanges,
Next, His Majesty the Second Prince was shocked.
He originally thought that Lin Ling was just a martial artist, but who knew that his intelligence was so high!
