Reborn as a doctor, he takes revenge and ruthlessly punishes the scum.

Gong Beige glanced at Wen Lang with disgust, but did not stop him; instead, he sneered:

“That’s right. Anyone who dares to slander me is showing contempt for the imperial authority. As for the others, I’m letting them off the hook because they’ve been misled by those vile people. But Yu Shuyan, she must pay the price for her actions.”

He then gave the order:

"Wang An, arrange for someone to take her away. Anyone who dares to obstruct her is a treacherous and disloyal subject, and should be executed without mercy!"

The excitement in Wen Lang's eyes was no longer concealed. He moved closer to Gong Beige and said obsequiously:

"Your Highness, please hand this wretched woman over to me. I guarantee that she will never dare to show any contempt for imperial authority again."

Gong Beige glanced at him mockingly, but her smile held a hidden meaning:

"Very well, then I'll hand the person over to you. Don't let me down."

Wen Lang smugly agreed, then looked at Yu Shuyan with a pained expression:

“You woman, you’ve always been a smooth talker, full of lies, and you’ve framed and slandered me, ruining my career. Today, everyone here has seen your true colors, and it’s time to clear my name.”

Yu Shuyan looked at him, her expression unchanged, but the disgust in her eyes was undisguised:

"Wen Lang, you really haven't changed at all. Qin Lao and the others are all here today, and everyone knows perfectly well what good deeds Gong Beige and the others have done. Yet you're still here, eagerly trying to show your loyalty and blatantly lying. You truly deserve your ungrateful, sycophantic, and utterly despicable face!"

Wen Lang gritted his teeth in anger, but then suddenly laughed:

"Good, good, very good. I hope you can stay this sharp-tongued in a little while!"

After speaking, he looked directly at Wang An:

"Tie her up right now, I want to catch up with her!"

Wang An, seeing him give such orders, flashed disdain in his eyes, but still nodded and directly instructed the two soldiers behind him:

"You two go and tie her up. Just go with him!"

Seeing them approach Yu Shuyan menacingly, Old Qin couldn't help but shout:

"Stop~"

Wen Lang appeared humble.

"Elder Qin, you are a highly respected person. Please don't let this small matter earn you a reputation for being disrespectful and impolite."

He appeared humble, but his words were full of warnings.

Old Qin ignored him completely and looked at Gong Beige:

"Your Highness, we can forget what you just said and did, but please leave with your people right now. I can guarantee with my lifelong reputation that nothing that happened here today will be revealed."

Wen Lang panicked and looked nervously at Gong Beige:

"Your Highness, you~"

Gong Beige interrupted him with a sharp look.

Seeing his unwilling yet helpless expression, Gong Beige sneered and looked at Elder Qin:

"Old Qin, you're getting old, haven't you? You've forgotten what I just said. I already told you, I was just so angry with this bitch that I blurted out a few nonsense words. What, are you threatening me with this now? Do you really think I'm afraid?"

Old Qin frowned:

"Yes, we have no evidence to prove anything, but we can prove what you just said. As for how the world will see it, that's for the world to think about."

Gong Beige's eyes held a deep, coldness.

"Old man, you're threatening me."

Old Qin looked at her calmly, without saying a word, but his meaning was self-evident.

Gong Beige remained silent, staring at Old Qin for a long time, then suddenly burst into laughter:

"Good, good, very good!"

"Since you old bastard want to die, then I'll grant your wish. Slandering the royal family and harboring rebellious intentions, I'll kill you—at least I'll have an explanation."

As he spoke, he raised his hand directly:

"Archers~"

As soon as the sound faded, a row of archers stepped forward and raised their crossbows at Elder Qin and the others.

Old Qin's expression remained unchanged, but his eyes hardened as he addressed the person standing before him:

"I'm sorry, everyone. Today, it is I who have caused you all trouble."

Everyone shook their heads, and someone took the lead, saying:

"Elder Qin, you don't need to say that. What happened today was all of our own free will. It is the duty of us scholars to serve the people. If we were to see such a disregard for human life and do nothing about it, we would be letting down all the years of hard work we have put into our studies."

The crowd echoed in agreement, and even more people stood in front of Old Qin.

Gong Beige's eyes grew increasingly cold and deep, his voice carrying a suppressed madness:

"Fine, fine, fine, very fine indeed. Since you're all so eager to die, then go ahead and die!"

Granny Chang wanted to persuade her again.

Gong Beige sneered:

"Enough said. These wretches, just kill them and be done with it. It's just a bit of a hassle, but I don't believe they can affect the fate of my Great Yong Kingdom."

Seeing her like this, Granny Chang, though worried, did not try to persuade her any further.

Gong Beige raised her hand.

"Kakaka~"

The sound of a crossbow being chambered rang out instantly.

As soon as the singer from the north finished speaking, the arrow was shot out.

Gong Beige's eyes swept across the faces of Qin Lao and the others, seemingly trying to see the fear in them. However, she was very disappointed; not a single person showed any intention of backing down.

The more this happened, the more madness raged in her eyes. The smile on her lips twisted and distorted, and her raised hand, accompanied by the coldness in her eyes, slowly prepared to fall.

"Gong Beige, didn't you want evidence? Here you go!"

Yu Shuyan suddenly spoke, interrupting Gong Beige's gesture.

She suddenly turned her head:

"Yu Shuyan, don't worry, we'll talk again in a bit!"

As he spoke, he turned his head again, clearly wanting to deal with Elder Qin and the others first.

Yu Shuyan suddenly laughed:

"Are you sure you don't want to talk to me first?"

This time, Gong Beige didn't even bother to turn his head; his eyes were full of impatience.

“Yu Shuyan, since I’ve decided to kill them, I’m prepared to handle all the trouble. No matter what you say, it won’t change their fate.”

As he spoke, he pressed down with his hand.

The archers instantly aimed at the crowd.

“Ka-ka-ka-ka~~~”

The sounds of crossbows firing, along with the whistling of arrows, echoed through the night sky.
