Night gradually fell.
The residence’s guards, wearing their uniforms and holding their swords, stood solemnly on both sides of the path.


Xu Fanggu and Nanny Xu knelt in place.
The male servants and maids who had helped earlier knelt on the ground and let out deafening cries.
Other subordinates were also called and stood aside.

Lin Bozhou ignored the voices present, and his eyes were as still as water as they swept across the people present.
“Today, this prince will give you the right to say what wrongdoings the Xu Family has done in this residence besides withholding Madam’s meals.”

The subordinates looked around and seemed to be a little hesitant, but slowly, one person came forward and kowtowed.
“The Xu Family took items from the treasury without permission and had been caught by this servant.”

One after another, people knelt.

“The maid A-Liu jumped into the well precisely because she had offended Xu Fanggu and was abused in every way.
The floating corpse that was retrieved was full of wounds, but Nanny Xu also suppressed this matter.”

“This servant’s mother offended Nanny Xu and had her leg broken.
She is still lying sick in bed now……”

“The Xu Family lent the residence’s equipment to make money……”

“……”

The atmosphere was eerily silent.
Any one of these evil deeds was worthy of anger, but Lin Bozhou didn’t appear to be angry.
Upon hearing the words, he only said, “Good.”

When he had heard almost everything, he gently raised his hand.

“This subordinate is here!” The commander knelt with a clang.

“Take them down and chop them up with their heads parading in the courtyard so all the servants can see.”

A head parade in the residence courtyard was the same as parading the heads of traitors to the three armies during wartime to act as a deterrent and warning.

Close by, Meng Huan saw Lin Bozhou’s handsome, peerless, noble visage facing the general, giving orders mercilessly without any ripples.

“This subordinate has received the order.”

The commander gestured to the guard next to him.
The other party took out a broadsword.
The blade was black and sleek; only after bathing in enough human blood would it glisten.

After that, he lifted the sword.

“Wait a minute.” Lin Bozhou remembered something.


“Your Highness, do you have any more orders?”

Lin Bozhou turned his head sideways and locked eyes with Meng Huan.

For a moment, Meng Huan’s eyes were empty.
Like witnessing the true face of a god, his eyes were burned by lightning and fire, and he buried his head.

Lin Bozhou sounded thoughtful.
“Ever seen a killing?”

“No,” Meng Huan said.

Lin Bozhou hummed and gestured to the commander.
“Take them away.
Don’t use the knife in front of Madam.
Madam can’t see this.”

“……” Meng Huan’s fingers clenched tighter, and his back tensed to the point of having a little pain.

The people crying and screaming in pain were dragged and hauled away like objects, being towed unmercifully by the ironclad army tugging at their collars.
They left traces of their feet stomping in the mud accompanied by heartbreaking screams.

Meng Huan’s heart tingled as he stared blankly at Lin Bozhou.
“Did Your Highness kill them for me?”

Lin Bozhou: “Not really.”

Meng Huan could not say whether he was relieved or burdened.
“So? ……”

Lin Bozhou’s reasons for killing were probably along the lines of deceiving the superior and deluding the subordinates, devastating people into killing themselves, stealing public property, etc……

After thinking this way, his guilt for these few lives lessened a lot.

But Meng Huan was still a little overwhelmed.

Everyone gradually dispersed, and only a few people remained.
Lin Bozhou turned around.
“Let’s eat.”

He took Meng Huan’s hand but felt the small hand trembling in his palm.

“What’s wrong?” Lin Bozhou raised his eyebrows.

Meng Huan shook his head and followed him obediently until his forehead gently hit his back.
He stopped and looked at Lin Bozhou.

Lin Bozhou: “Scared?”


Meng Huan didn’t say anything.

“Hmm?”

Realizing Lin Bozhou’s sincerity, Meng Huan said, “I’m scared of how you look now.”

Lin Bozhou’s dark eyes gazed at him, a faint orange glow appearing under the light, and he appeared amused by his reaction.
“How?”

Meng Huan tried to describe his feelings.
“A person who can kill whomever he wants and get whatever he wants, life and death are in his hands— perhaps some people will choose to climb him, using his ability to satisfy their selfish desires, but others will feel afraid and think of getting away from such a person.”

Lin Bozhou’s slightly dark eyes looked at him.
“Which kind of person is Madam?”

Meng Huan picked at his palms and did not speak.

He seemed to have made a choice with his silence.

The way he hung his head made the corners of Lin Bozhou’s lips curve inexplicably, and a strange feeling rushed to his chest.

He was surrounded by wolves who ate and slept in the open, seizing food to eat under the blade.
Blood and bones spread over every inch of the land here.
Suddenly, a harmless little lamb that had lost its way walked in.

The lamb was snow-white and well-behaved with round eyes, and when it saw the brutality of the predator, it got scared and didn’t know what to do with its four hooves.unedited
