Fang Qiuling was very surprised to see his two sword-wielding envoys, Yuna and Youya, accompanied by the guards, leisurely walking into the government affairs hall. Before he could ask a question, the twins knelt down on one knee together.

"Salute you, my lord."

The two girls are dignified and beautiful, and the well-fitting clothes show a unique elegance and bearing. The tense atmosphere seemed to have eased with their arrival.

Fang Qiu, who was sitting behind the desk, moved his body smartly, changed his sitting posture, and then nodded noncommittally. He had wanted to get up to greet his two sword-wielding envoys, but Yuna's message through the spiritual realm caused his butt to fall back from his seat, and the question he was about to speak swallowed back.

The twins got up, and each took a rolled-up piece of parchment from his robe.

Her sister Yuna stepped forward and held up the parchment in her hands at the same time.

"My lord, we have found out what you have asked to investigate."

Her younger sister Yuya also stepped forward, holding the parchment in her hands with both hands.

"Treasurer Oferdo Grant took advantage of his position to make a fortune. He not only privately withheld taxes from Huquan Town, but also forcibly apportioned them to a number of businessmen. ”

"He has assisted smugglers in transporting weapons, armor and other contraband to the north of the Fallen Leaf Pass." Sister Yuna continued with her sister's words, "There are no less than ten direct confirmations, and there are countless indirect confirmations. ”

"The relevant case scrolls have been sorted out." Sister Yuya took out a parchment roll again, "Please take a look." ”

The twins' voices are crisp and pleasant, and the two speak alternately but connect like one person. The big and small officials in the government affairs department were all a little stunned.

Fang Qiuling, who was sitting on the main seat, had a solemn expression and stretched out his hand to move forward. The parchment scroll in the twins' hands then rose into the air and fell straight into their hands.

It was just a simple use of the zero-level spell Invisible Hand, but immediately there was a gasping sound around it.

- The Acting Lord actually has the evidence of the Treasurer Oferdo Grant!

This is the first reaction of most people.

- The Acting Lord knows magic and is a wizard!

This is the second reaction of most people.

The two were added, and the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground sounded in the crowd one after another. A number of officials in the financial officer department collapsed on the ground, their faces full of horror. Among them were not only the tax collectors in charge of taxes, but also the officials in charge of warehousing and the officials in charge of the logistics of the town guard.

——The psychological quality is so poor, it can really be said that you don't recruit yourself!

Fang Qiuling grimaced, swept over the few paralyzed figures in the crowd with an indifferent gaze, and then casually unfolded a piece of parchment.

Butler Garlas, who was standing behind Fang Qiuling, and Alina and Ronald, who were sitting behind him to "study government affairs", the eyes of the three of them glanced at him for the first time.

After a while, all three of them invariably took a breath of cold air.

There was not a word on the parchment, it was completely blank.

Fang Qiuling raised his eyebrows, closed the parchment very casually, and then opened another one.

It's still blank, not a word!

The eyes of the three "observers" were already full of shock, and they all focused their eyes on the last piece of parchment.

If nothing else...... It's definitely still blank!

Then again they saw a piece of parchment on which nothing was written.

- What about the good evidence? The three pieces of parchment are empty, isn't that a trick!

Aliana's gaze narrowed. She didn't say a word, but her big bright eyes unmistakably expressed her displeasure.

Steward Garras was amazed when he saw the first piece of parchment. But when he saw the second and third equally blank parchments, his surprise disappeared completely, and his gaze became extremely profound.

The biggest reaction was Rodna, the youngest child of the Deharus family. The little boy's face instantly turned red, and his little hand slapped on the desk with a "bang", ready to attack his cheap teacher.

But before he could speak, Fang Qiuling spoke first.

"Calm down, Rodner, calm down." Fang Qiuling calmly rolled up the parchment little by little, and looked directly into Rodna's eyes, "You are a member of the Deharus family, you need to keep it at all times...... Calm down. Don't be swayed by the emotions in your heart. ”

There was a slight playfulness, a slight smile, and a slight scrutiny in the black pupils, and there was no sternness at all. But for some reason, the not-so-stern gaze made Ronald's movements completely stiff, and he didn't know where to lose the words that had reached his lips.

"I know you don't understand this kind of behavior." Fang Qiuling tapped his palm with the rolled parchment, and his words revealed a bit of carelessness, "They are already in a high position, but they are so unparticular about doing things, and they do whatever they want." It's bad, it's bad......"

Those who didn't see the parchment all thought that Fang Qiuling was talking about the financial officer Ofildo Grantley, and the people related to the financial officer's corruption and malfeasance. However, the three "observers" who saw the parchment knew very well that Fang Qiuling was not talking about those few corrupt and derelict guys, but explaining why there was not a word on the three parchments, but the twins said that they had conclusive evidence.

"Ronald, and Alina, this is the first lesson for you. Any one thing can be simply divided into process and outcome. Process, that is, the method and means of dealing with things. As a result, the result is what you end up with after the matter is dealt with. Which do you think is important? Is the process important, or is the result important? Of course, don't tell me that both the process and the result are important. It's certainly important when you can, but what about when you have to make a trade-off? ”

The expressions of the three "observers" were different.

"Do you have any objections to the misconduct of Treasurer Oferdo Grant? Do you think his comrades, they ......" Fang Qiuling's gaze swept over the few limp figures on the ground, "Are they innocent?" ”

Alina and Ronald shook their heads in unison.

Now they see the ugliness of many officials. If there is no ghost in the heart, no corruption and malfeasance, this may be the reaction? At this moment, the ugliness has been exposed, so don't say that you are innocent, and don't pour dirty water on the dead financial officer.

Butler Garras grimaced his face without any expression.

"According to the regular trial process, the first thing is to be dismissed and investigated, then the charges are announced, and finally the case is reported to the lord for adjudication. I just skipped the first few steps and went straight to the cut. Moreover, there is also a death penalty execution process, and the whole process is about three to four months. If that guy makes a little more moves and agitates a little mess during this period, time can continue to drag on. What do you think...... Now have time to come little by little? ”

The Death Knight was extremely fast, and he almost succeeded in the sneak attack on Fog Castle. In the end, although it failed to make a contribution in the first battle, it also successfully blocked the land communication with Wuxi Castle to the outside world, resulting in the early warning information not being transmitted in the first time.

When Fang Qiuling arrived at Wuxi Fort yesterday, he couldn't witness the scene of the undead army attacking the city in the daytime, but the fierceness of the siege battle could be seen from the scorched black on the castle and the mess outside the moat. At the same time, it is also foreseeable that after nightfall today or tomorrow, Wuxi Fort will face another round of attacks. In this case, the officials in the rear not only did not cooperate, but questioned the authenticity of the identity of the acting lord...... Do you really think that your neck is made of iron and is immune to swords?

Who do the soldiers who fight and kill the enemy on the front line hate the most? The number one is undoubtedly a traitor. The traitor must die, for betrayal is an unpardonable sin! What is hated after the traitor? Some say it's the culprit who provoked the war, some say it's the zombie bureaucrat who doesn't act, and some say it's the black-hearted businessman who makes war money. In the end, to sum up, all those who drag their feet in the rear and the blood of the soldiers are hated. As for the rankings, it can only be said that the rankings are in no particular order.

Do you need support on the front line of Fog Castle? The answer is yes. However, the line from Wuxi Fort to Luoye Pass has concentrated more than 80 percent of the military strength in the entire Misty Lake area, which can be described as the absolute main force. In the case that the main force is unable to repel the enemy, gather the remaining 20% of the army to go to the rescue, and the result is bound to be that there is no return!

The army of the undead can't do anything about Wuxi Fort for the time being, but it will definitely be easy to eliminate one or two rescue troops on the field battlefield. Therefore, Count Diharus's idea coincided with Fang Qiuling's proposal - to retain as much living force as possible and prepare for a future counterattack!

The final result of the First Kuroshio War was inevitably the total fall of the Misty Lake area. It is very difficult, even an impossible task, to change this outcome. Count DeHarus had already foreseen his "Promised Land" and decided to live and die with the Castle of Fog. However, there was no need for the people under his command to live and die with him, so he granted Fang Qiuling the status of acting lord and entrusted the evacuation and evacuation of the people to Fang Qiuling.

Fang Qiuling did not have any tokens or authorization documents from Count Diharus. However, judging from the attitude of the Steward of Garras in his support for Fang Qiuling, it is clear that he has received orders and instructions from the Earl himself. How did he get it? Fang Qiuling tended to be given by Rodna or Alina.

Although Count Diharus expressed his trust in Fang Qiuling, he granted the status of acting lord. But trust is trust, and the necessary checks and balances are still indispensable - the Gallas butler is the checks and balances set by the Earl.

If it is for the public, then the Garras steward must be fully cooperative. However, if Fang Qiuling wanted to bend the law for personal gain, then there would also be a sharp sword to test whether his neck was also made of iron.

“…… Time is pressing, and the Misty Lake area and the Deharus Territory will enter wartime management from now on. According to the kingdom's wartime regulations, all procedures are simple, and all officials obey orders unconditionally! Any doubts and challenges may be submitted to the lord for adjudication after the end of the war, or they may be tried by the Supreme Circuit Court. Anyone who disobeys orders and disobeys the yang and yin will be directly punished with capital punishment after verification! ”

Fang Qiuling got up and slowly walked to the desk.

"Guards, drag them all down and behead them for public display!"
