I traveled to the era of female supremacy and became a bad woman

Lord Niu found it quite funny to see Bai Xielin kneeling on the ground and kowtowing for mercy. The Bai family was also a royal relative of the Yan Kingdom, yet they looked like this at this moment.

I have no ties in this world anymore. Since I can't escape and will die eventually, why should I take the blame for Bai Mohan?

Thinking of this, Niu Ye crawled forward a few steps, "Your Highness! Your Highness! I will tell you the truth! I am not the leader of the bandits, our master is..."

"How dare you!" Niu Ye was startled by Feng Zhaoyun's sudden call and looked up at the person sitting above him.

Feng Zhaoyun was looking down at her at this moment. "This bandit is full of nonsense and refuses to admit his crime. How despicable! Come! Drag this man out of the door and execute him on the spot! To appease the public anger!"

"Yes!" The guards lifted up Master Niu and escorted him out the door.

Niu Ye finally understood that this Zhan Wang was determined to make her talk back on Bai Mohan's behalf.

Since he was going to die anyway, he shouted at the top of his lungs, "King Zhan is colluding with the Yan Kingdom's royal family! Hahaha... You've all been deceived!"

Just as he said this, before he even walked out of the gate of Bai Mansion, he was stabbed in the back by the personal soldiers of King Zhan.

At this time, someone in the main hall had heard Master Niu's shouting, and quietly raised his eyes to look at His Royal Highness the King of War, but did not dare to say much.

After a while, Lord Niu's blood was splattered on the gate of Bai Mansion, and the people outside the gate cheered.

Duke Feng saw this scene as soon as he arrived, but ignored it, dismounted, and walked into the main hall of the Bai Mansion with a whip in his hand.

Entering the main hall, seeing Feng Zhaoyun seated at the apex, Duke Feng stepped forward to pay his respects and then sat aside.

Lord Niu was, after all, a wanted criminal of the imperial court, yet this War King could execute him without a third trial. Bai Xielin knew he couldn't escape death today, so he knelt on the ground.

"Your Highness, I plead guilty... I was forced into this, but I did not participate in the bandits' burning, killing and looting. I was only occasionally forced to give the bandits a little supplies to keep my home safe. But I have also been helping the people of Weicheng with their food and clothing until today. I was confused for a moment, and I hope Your Highness will give me a light punishment." After Bai Xielin finished speaking, he kowtowed violently.

Bai Lingzhi, who had been hiding and eavesdropping outside the door, rushed into the main hall and knelt in front of King Zhan, "Your Highness! Please forgive my mother. I am willing to take all the blame for my mother." After saying that, he also kowtowed.

Governor Yang and others had received favors from Bai Xielin before, and although they wanted to plead for mercy, they heard that King Zhan had a strange temper and were afraid of implicating themselves, so they finally chose to remain silent.

Duke Feng was furious at the moment. His son was abducted to Yan State in order to suppress bandits, and his life or death was unknown. However, the Bai family was an accomplice in funding these bandits.

Thinking of this, Duke Feng's face was filled with indignation. "Of course it is so. It is a serious crime and he deserves the death penalty!"

Bai Xielin looked up at Duke Feng. She knew who he was, but she had never imagined that she would one day die at the hands of her own brother-in-law...

Feng Zhaoyun knew that this was a relative of Feng Yunjin's mother. She had seen him when she entered the city. There were many refugees and civilians, and the court had not allocated any food. What Bai Xielin said was indeed true. If it were not for the help of the Bai family, riots would have broken out long ago.

"Although you helped the people in the city, you also helped the bandits and aided the tyrant. You can be spared the death penalty..." Feng Zhaoyun was interrupted when he was halfway through his words.

"Your Highness!" Duke Feng stood up and saluted, "Your Highness, please don't be soft-hearted! This man aided and abetted the evil, and the Bai family will not escape death!"

Feng Zhaoyun frowned slightly. This Duke was determined to execute the Bai family.

Upon hearing this, Bai Xielin was afraid that his entire family would be implicated. Tears streamed down his face as he looked at Feng Zhaoyun, "Your Highness... This was done by me alone. The rest of the Bai family was unaware of it. I hope Your Highness will forgive the descendants of the Bai family."

Duke Feng snorted, "Have you ever heard of a family head being convicted but the entire family being spared? Our dynasty has never had such a rule. All of them were executed!"

Feng Zhaoyun looked at Duke Feng. What if he knew in the future that the person executed was a half-relative of his? Thinking of this, Feng Zhaoyun's lips curled slightly.

"Bai Xielin, the death penalty can naturally be spared." After Feng Zhaoyun said this, Bai Xielin looked up at her in shock.

Duke Feng didn't know why Feng Zhaoyun wanted to protect the Bai family, so he spoke again, "Your Highness! The Bai family's crime is truly worthy of death. If His Majesty knew that you secretly let Bai Xielin go, what would happen to you!"

The people present naturally dared not speak out during the fight between the gods. Bai Xielin also understood that it was the War King who wanted to protect him, while his brother-in-law wanted to kill the entire Bai family.

Feng Zhaoyun chuckled, then said calmly, "The Duke led the troops to suppress the bandits this time, but failed to complete the task entrusted by His Majesty. You are guilty. I didn't punish you for your incompetence, but you are controlling me..."

After hearing this, Duke Feng knelt on the ground, bowed his head and clasped his fists, "I...know I am guilty, but Bai Xielin aided the bandits, so he must die."

"How dare you!" Feng Zhaoyun shouted angrily.

Everyone was startled and knelt down, "Your Highness, please calm down."

Feng Zhaoyun narrowed his brows and looked down. "Escort Bai Xielin back to the capital, confiscate all property of the Bai family, and exile the Bai family members to the border to fend for themselves. No one is allowed to help. Anyone who disobeys this order will be executed on the spot."

Everyone said in unison, "Your Highness is wise!"

Bai Xielin kowtowed with a trembling voice, "Thank you... Your Highness!"

Feng Zhaoyun stood up and said, "I am tired, I will leave." Then he walked out of the main hall.

Duke Feng secretly cursed Feng Zhaoyun for being incompetent. It was obvious that Feng Zhaoyun was trying to help the Bai family. The Bai family should have all been executed! Duke Feng left with a flick of his sleeves.

The guards came forward and took Bai Xielin away. Bai Lingzhi struggled to grab Bai Xielin's hand, but Bai Xielin suddenly hugged Bai Lingzhi and whispered in his ear, "Take the sisters to Yan State and don't come back."

After saying this, he was taken out by the guards and locked up in jail.

After a while, the officers and soldiers began to search the Bai Mansion. Bai was the richest man in the area and his wealth was so huge that it would take a while to liquidate it.

Feng Zhaoyun still lived in the courtyard in front of the Bai Mansion. At this time, Bai Lingzhi was kneeling outside her courtyard gate, wanting to plead for Bai Xielin.

After the guard came in to report, Feng Zhaoyun did not see him, but asked him to go back. Bai Lingzhi could not see the War King and had to turn back.

At this time, there was crying and shouting in the Bai Mansion. The police surrounded everyone in the Bai Mansion in the main courtyard and checked their belongings.

Bai Lingzhi and her two sisters were standing together at this time. Bai Lingzhi's two sisters were smarter than Bai Lingzhi and had already hidden the silver bills on their bodies.

The officer came forward to search them, but the two refused to comply. The officer got angry and drew his sword, "Believe it or not, I'll chop you down!"

"What's the matter?" At this time, Jiuyi and Deputy General Xue walked towards the crowd, and the officer hurriedly saluted her.

Jiuyi stepped forward and said, "His Highness has ordered that the search and seizure of the Bai Mansion be handed over to us. You may leave now."

This was a lucrative official, so the officers did not dare to offend him and could only accept the order helplessly, saying "yes", and then walked out of the Bai Mansion.

Jiuyi and Deputy General Xue received Feng Zhaoyun's order and led the War King's men to clean up the Bai family's property.

Most of the Bai family's property was confiscated, but Bai Lingzhi and her two sisters were let off without being thoroughly interrogated.

He drove everyone from the Bai Mansion and personally ordered people to escort them to exile on the border.

Since the Bai family is a relative of the Queen of Yan, and because of Bai Mohan's crime, their property was confiscated. When they reach the border, the Queen of Yan will definitely not sit idly by.
