C2195 Justice may be Late but It will Eventually Come

The maids are very efficient, and in just a day, they have captured all the grain merchants in the capital.

It was all the grain merchants!

As long as they were selling grain, there was no one who would not raise the price.

From their warehouse, they had paid hundreds of thousands of tons of grain!

That's right, just one place in Imperial had searched for hundreds of thousands of tons of grain, and the seized property was even more uncountable. They had not even calculated it yet, and it was probably really an astronomical figure.

Under the disaster, most of the money in the people and the national treasury went to the grain merchants. It could be seen how wealthy they were.

Under the beautiful appearance was a dirty mask.

Indeed, it was dirty because they had encountered resistance during this huge search. A portion of the grain merchants kept their private soldiers in captivity. Each family actually had a few hundred private soldiers. This was a Power that could not be ignored.

If they encountered ordinary officials in the imperial court, they would not be able to do anything to them.

When the grain merchants gathered together and the private soldiers received orders, the entire Imperial Capital would be turned upside down. It was obvious that these grain merchants had already started making preparations.

Fortunately, Yang Ling had returned in time. These private soldiers were completely useless in front of the maids.

The arrest operation began to become bloody. In a short afternoon, at least a few thousand people died under the suppression of the maids and robots.

The entire Imperial Capital fell into a state of panic. The civilians stayed indoors and didn't move. What they were most afraid of now was hearing the heavy footsteps of the robots outside.

It was like a death knell from hell.

At dinner time, Yang Ling received the System Beep. "Ding! You have shattered the entire city's grain merchants' wish to not be imprisoned. Attribute Point + 3300 points."

"Ding! You have fulfilled the wish of most of the civilians to obtain retribution. Wish Value + 3300."

"Ding! Detected that you have captured all the food merchants in the Imperial Capital. System has determined that you have conquered a small territory. Wish Value + 3,300 points."

"Only a small domain?"

"The good show has just begun. "

A cold smile appeared on Yang Ling's face.

In the splendid imperial restaurant, only Yang Ling and Liu Muhan were sitting on the round table. Behind them stood Elin.

Liu Muhan took a bite of the celery and looked at Yang Ling. "Hubby, there is a storm of blood outside. The grain merchants and their families have captured tens of thousands of people. The Imperial Prison is full."

"What should we do with those private soldiers? There are nearly one hundred thousand of them."

"Let them stay in the barracks."

Yang Ling said, "The Royal Guards have gone to the front line. Temporarily conscript their barracks for the private soldiers to stay. Let the guards who held back temporarily serve as guards. I will send a portion of the puppets and robots over. There will be no need to worry."

"Okay."

Liu Muhan nodded to Yilin. She immediately gave the order.

Inside the room. Only Yang Ling and Liu Muhan were left. Liu Muhan pinched her brows and lightly sighed. "My eyebrows are twitching. I don't know how many people will die this time."

"Hubby, is it really okay for us to do this?"

Yang Ling knew Liu Muhan was kind, but he could not bear it anymore. With her ability, if it were not for her benevolence, her commander value would not only be 92 points.

She was kind, but she didn't command soldiers.0

"No matter how many people die, can there be more disaster victims?"

Yang Ling said calmly, "Because of their actions, how many people in the empire starve to death? They will not be able to redeem it even if they die a hundred times."

"Muhan, we are enforcing the law of the country. This is a righteous action."

"We are going to let the whole world know that justice may be late, but it will come eventually."

"You don't have to worry too much. Everything will be done according to the law of the country. We will deal with it as we wish."

"That's not what I'm worried about. Right now, it's a world where spring is warm and flowers bloom. Plagues tend to spread easily. I'm worried that too many people will die in the capital and cause plagues."

"Huh?"

Yang Ling was stunned at first, but then he laughed and said, "The Empress is right. When we return, we will give the order to cancel all ceremonies such as funerals during special times. Everything will be simplified and spark as soon as possible."

"As for those who resisted and died, gather and burn them together."

"Mm..."

Liu Muhan nodded lightly and looked out the window with her bright eyes. She softly said, "I hope everything goes smoothly."

The curtains to an arrest operation that swept across the entire empire had been drawn.

The Inspection Division was mainly in charge of this operation. The Inspection Division, which was originally like a vase in the eyes of the world, had now become the Death God who reaped the lives of the profiteers' private soldiers.

There was a rumor that the Inspection Division was a harem that His Majesty did not publicize. The women inside were all toys, and thus came to the conclusion that His Majesty was a muddle-headed ruler.

All the rumors broke by themselves. The adults in the Inspection Division were indeed vases, and the flower in the vase was the flower of hell.

Because the Imperial Court had given enough food, all the disaster victims had even received rations and fruit baskets for several days in advance. As the saying goes, one does not panic when one has food in hand. Even if those food merchants wanted to give out large amounts of food for free for them to follow him, they had to put up a desperate resistance. But in the end, none of them responded.

Among the disaster victims, which family did not starve to death?

In order to eat, they sold their own sons and daughters. Their sons were serving food merchants. Their daughters were serving them as maids. The disaster victims hated these people to the bone!

Many young and strong disasters, after obtaining food and recovering a lot, took the initiative to follow the Office of Supervision to capture the grain merchants. For a moment, the entire country's response was enthusiastic.

His Majesty's arrest this time had won the hearts of all the people in the empire. All corners of the empire called out to him, long live His Majesty.

The eyes of the people were bright. Justice had finally arrived!

On the seventh day of the arrest operation, all the grain merchants throughout the entire empire had basically been captured. The total number of profiteers, their family members, private soldiers, and some of the managers and workers in the grain trading company had reached a million.

Although the managers and workers were working, they had indeed violated the laws of the Empire. They were considered accomplices who knew the law and broke the law, so they still had to be arrested.

Of course, they should not receive any severe punishment in the end. They might even be released after going through the motions. After all, everyone protected themselves in the great calamity. If they did not work, they would starve to death. It was understandable.

However, the law was the law. Even if they were to go through the motions, they had to arrest this group of people!

On the eighth day, the Imperial Court announced that they were determined to split the grain and money obtained from raiding the profiteers into half and divide them into all the citizens of the Empire.

In addition, during the Great Calamity, they would sell their children and sign no master and servant contracts.

This policy caused the entire country to boil. Yang Ling and Liu Muhan's momentum reached a new peak. The people all called themselves the wise and virtuous, and everyone's love for the imperial family had reached its peak.

This point was what Leiya, who was outside, felt the most.
