Richard did not take the incident of the knight’s attendant admitting the blame to heart, but looked at this group of pig-like subjects.
When dealing with these fools, Richard would not be merciful at all, and could only rely on iron and blood to make them surrender.
Those who were beaten to pieces by him now stood obediently in their own team. No one dared to complain, and even in their eyes, there was only panic and regret, not a trace of resentment.
But Richard knew that this was not enough, and he needed to give them a little more stimulation.
So he turned around and ordered the person next to him:
“Go, drag Harvey out!”
Everyone smelled the aroma of food wafting from not far away, and everyone kept swallowing their saliva, looking forward to it.
They knew that as long as they were obedient, they could get food.
And there were so many prepared foods over there, maybe they could have a good meal.
Many of them didn’t have the opportunity to have a full meal on weekdays.
Unexpectedly, after the lord came, although they needed to work, they had the opportunity to have a full meal.
But they waited and waited, but found that their lord had not spoken.
What is the lord waiting for?
Everyone was confused, but no one dared to ask, so they could only wait patiently.
The knights and attendants stood guard everywhere to keep order on the scene.
Two knights and attendants standing close in the distance smiled at each other:
“Look, our lord is training an eagle!”
“Yes, let these pigs learn a lesson. After a riot, let them wait for an extra hour for the food. Next time, they will behave themselves.”
“I think the Lord is still merciful. If it were me, I would just starve them for one meal and let them eat these stale, cold, fly-filled foods for the next meal.”
“I’m afraid that people will get sick after eating it. Who will do the work then? I think the most appropriate punishment is to boil it for an hour until the food is cold and not spoiled.”
“That makes sense. The lord is indeed wise!”
“Need I say more? Don’t use your inferior thinking to speculate on the adults’ decisions, you will only look like a clown!”
Because they were far away, they did not hear Richard’s order to bring the tax officer Harvey. They were whispering and waiting patiently.
After a while, there was a sudden movement in front of them. They looked up and immediately found that several colleagues were escorting a person over.
“It was strange, why did the adults bring Harvey here at this time? Did they need Harvey to use his remaining energy to calculate how to distribute things?”
“Idiot, I told you a long time ago not to use your stupid brain to guess what adults are thinking!”
“You are smart, why don’t you tell me about it?”
“I don’t know either”
“I don’t know you’re still talking about me!”
“I heard from the clergy of the Church that there is a saying in the Bible that ‘the wisdom of a fool is to keep silent’. My friend, talk less and do more, and see what the Lord does.”
At this time, Richard, sitting on horseback, took a look at Harvey who was escorted here.
Harvey’s body was bruised, and his forehead was covered with small wounds, as if he had been stabbed by something, and even his clothes were flattened and tattered.
Obviously, during the short period of time he was imprisoned, someone had teased and insulted him.
Richard didn’t care about these details, pointing at Harvey and said to everyone:
“You should all know this person. His name is Harvey, and he has been your tax collector. You must be wondering why he has become like this.”
As Richard spoke, everyone became agitated.
Oh my God, is this man really the tax collector Harvey?
How did he become like this?
Everyone speculated about how he had offended the lord.
Before Lord Richard arrived, there had been no viscount here for many years.
The clerk was responsible for conveying the government orders from the upper level, but because this place was remote, many government orders did not need to be conveyed, and the people of the territory rarely saw the clerk Rhodes.
And the one who had more contact with the people of the territory was the tax collector Harvey who had become a prisoner in front of them.
If Rhodes was a person they found difficult to contact and people kept their distance from him.
Then Harvey was their nightmare. In their lives, Harvey’s influence and deterrence were omnipresent.
Facing Harvey, they no longer had the slightest The rebellious spirit, especially the men that Harvey brought with him every time he appeared, was an absolute deterrent to them.
Such a person, who seemed to be a big shot to them, was actually caught like this?
Moreover, he was facing trial!
It was incredible!
To them, as long as they were not ordinary citizens, the people in the castle were all big shots. Even a mouse in the castle, they thought it was the object of their envy.
They could not see the disputes among the upper class. To them, it was a matter of another world. It was just like the feeling of the God King Zeus and the Goddess of the Hearth Hestia in the myths and legends to them. Maybe there were big and small, but they were all out of their reach.
At this time, they watched quietly, waiting for the lecture from the god-like lord.
“You pigs, remember this, I have said it again and again, everything in this Long Eagle Territory belongs to me, but someone did not listen and took my things for himself.
This person is Harvey!”
Richard jumped off his horse and drew out a knight’s sword from the side. The tip of the sword touched the ground, making a short piercing sound.
Harvey was escorted and lay on the wood, with regret in his eyes:
“Sir, I am willing to plead guilty! I was too stupid and blinded by money. I did not understand the meaning of your words. Harvey hopes to use his death to remind his family to obey your orders.”
Richard nodded slightly and said nothing more.
He held the knight’s sword stuck in the ground with both hands, closed his eyes and said:
“In the name of Hals I of the Byrne family, the people of the whole territory, and the king of the ancestors, I, Richard of the Byrne family, the Viscount of the Long Eagle Territory, hereby sentence you to death!”As
Richard recited, Hader lowered his head, closed his eyes, and waited for the moment of death to come.
The sound of the greatsword being pulled out of the gravel, the sound of Richard’s clothes fluttering, the sound of the sword breaking through the air… it’s coming!
The next moment, Hader’s consciousness completely disappeared.
All the people in the territory trembled, looking at the heads rolling on the ground, some of them dry-mouthed.
The arrogant and domineering tax collector has caused countless families to be broken up, and the nightmare of the entire Long Eagle Territory…
Their lord, kills when he says so!
Everyone is numb.
