After my soul traveled to ancient times, I don't want to be cannon fodder

"In addition, His Highness requires you to measure all the land in Qinghe, compile a land register, and submit it to the court."

"This..." Liu Ben wanted to ask again, he was very embarrassed.

But Zhong Ning had lost his patience and said coldly: "Hurry up and do it. If you don't do it well, I will kill your whole family!"

"Master Liu, you don't want to follow in the footsteps of the Cui family of Qinghe, do you?"

Just this one sentence made Liu Ben break out in a cold sweat.

Zhong Ning disappeared into the darkness and disappeared without a trace!

He held onto the edge of the bed and tried to stand up, but his legs were so weak that he had to work very hard to stand up straight again.

The beautiful woman on the bed timidly moved over and said tremblingly, "Master..."

Liu Ben waved his hand, "Don't be afraid, the master is fine..."

But then, there was a sudden knock on the door: "Master, Master, something big has happened..."

Liu Ben was startled again. He covered his chest and patted it again and again. Then he quickly put on his coat and opened the door and said, "What's going on in the middle of the night, making such a commotion? What's going on?"

Two yamen runners stood outside the door, reporting in panic: "Master, the Cui family of Qinghe, the Cui family of Qinghe..." Their voices were panting and intermittent...

Qinghe Cui family?

As soon as these four words appeared, Liu Ben woke up suddenly!

Yes, that person said, the Cui family of Qinghe is gone.

How could such a big family disappear just like that? He didn't believe it anyway, so Liu Ben quickly said to the two of them:

"What happened to the Qinghe Cui family? Please explain clearly..."

"The Cui family of Qinghe was wiped out tonight..." One of the yamen runners came to his senses and replied loudly.

Liu Ben staggered, his hand holding the door frame trembling slightly, "What did you just say? Say it again..."

"Master, the Qinghe Cui family was wiped out... hundreds of people... all died..."

Liu Ben's eyes widened and his whole body began to tremble violently.

The whole family was wiped out, they were actually wiped out.

No wonder, no wonder that person just now made that request.

Not only was he required to lead people to seize Qinyuan in the northern suburbs, but he was also required to seize all the land under the name of the Qinghe Cui family and make it the property of the imperial court.

God damn it, who is so cruel?

The entire Qinghe Cui family was wiped out overnight...

No, it couldn't be...

Liu Ben covered his mouth in horror, not daring to utter another word.

Because when the girl left, she emphasized that if he didn't do it well, his entire family would be killed.

And that girl is none other than Princess Zhaohua’s woman!

It was obvious that if he failed to handle this matter well, it would inevitably bring fatal disaster to his entire family. Princess Zhaohua was the Wolf Mie who dared to overthrow even Prince An, so how could she let his family go?

He had no choice at all!

Even if Cui was still an official in the court of several officials, if he blamed him one day, they would just ask him to resign.

But Princess Zhaohua is a ruthless person who will destroy his entire family!

No need to think about how to choose!

"Come here, come here..." Liu Ben suddenly shouted, "Quickly summon all the yamen runners... to follow me to investigate the case..."

Half an hour later.

Liu Ben sent half of the yamen runners, led by a legal advisor, to deal with the Qinghe Cui family incident, while he personally led the other half to the northern suburbs.

After arriving at Qinyuan in the northern suburbs, he led his men in a rush and arrested all those who were committing adultery inside and threw them into jail!

"Liu Ben, you can't do this to me..." County Captain Cao had just rolled into a ball with the beauty in his arms and was about to go into battle with his gun, but Liu Ben rushed in with his men.

Now he was half-naked and was thrown into the Sky Prison. It was really sad and infuriating. His eyes were bloodshot, his teeth were gritted, and his angry eyes almost tore Liu Ben to pieces.

"You have no right to treat me like this. I was invited by the Cui family, and that woman is a gift from the Cui family to me. What law have I broken? Why do you treat me like this?"

County Lieutenant Cao clutched the prison door tightly and roared, "Liu Ben, you are so ruthless, aren't you afraid of offending the Cui family?"

Liu Ben was originally watching the show, admiring the way County Magistrate Cao hated him but couldn't get rid of him.

Hearing this, he paused, and then a sneer appeared on the corner of his lips:

"Cui? County Magistrate Cao should pay more attention to himself! You think you are going to Cui's private residence and sleeping with Cui's filial daughter!"

"But I have found out that this is where the Cui family moved to Qinyuan, and the girl you are holding is a good girl that the Cui family just abducted and sold here."

"Princess Zhaohua destroyed an entire palace and held half of the court officials accountable for this matter. Who do you think you are? How dare you commit such a crime in such a high-profile situation?"

"I am an official appointed by the Great Yong court, and I must follow the court's will."

"Princess Zhaohua's actions are supported by His Majesty. I will serve His Majesty loyally and will never allow scum like you to disrupt the Great Yong Empire and harm the people of Great Yong!"

Liu Ben spoke righteously, and everyone's mouth twitched slightly.

County Captain Cao even pointed at Liu Ben's smug face and was so angry that he couldn't speak.

Liu Ben returned to the front hall and was silent for a moment about the group of children he had just rescued. He then said to the yamen runner beside him:

"Take good care of them. It's getting late today, so let them rest first. We'll ask them one by one tomorrow to find out where their homes are!"

After Liu Ben said this, he prepared to leave.

Unexpectedly, behind him, people knelt on the ground and shouted thank you, Lord Tian.

Liu Ben felt a pang of sadness in his heart and felt a little uncomfortable.

He is not some great official.

If he was, why would he take action only now!

.........

At this time, Zhong Ning had already taken advantage of the teleportation talisman and rushed back to Kyoto overnight.

She first put all the assassins back to the western suburbs house, and opened up two separate courtyards for the group of seventh-grade warriors.

Even other people were mostly arranged to sleep in large dormitories, with four people living in one room, a standard dormitory system, and three meals a day were provided by the government.

Zhong Ning specially arranged a cook for them according to the regulations of the princess's mansion, and provided them with full meals, nutritious meals, and fruits after meals.

In addition, Zhong Ning fed them the detoxification solution regularly. This solution was not to detoxify the loyalty pills in their bodies, but to detoxify the poison that was controlled in their bodies when they were death warriors.

Recently, their physical fitness has improved a lot. Some people have gradually regained their sanity, have normal thinking, and remembered many things in the past.

However, because of the Loyalty Pill and the memories of this period, they are more grateful and loyal to Zhong Ning.

Because their past memories tell them that no one treats them as human beings.

But the current master truly treats them as human beings.

With wages, three meals a day, and a house... they no longer have to live in caves and beg for food in the mountains.

Their childhood memories are so distant that they have forgotten where they came from and only remember the scenes of being trained since childhood.

This kind of memory is not a good memory, it’s better to forget it.

It’s just that the training ground seems to have not been built yet, so they can only train themselves in the yard. Although it is easy, it always feels like eating for free.

In other words, the master is really rich, otherwise how could he afford to support them!
