Live-in Son-in-law-Chapter 1040 1040: Useless Soldiers Are One, Useless Generals Make a Den

"City Lord."
Seeing the man with a bushy beard wearing armor, all the soldiers knelt down.
This man was the City Lord of Miluo City, Mi Haohao.
Qin Yi sneered, what grand protocol.
Everyone knelt down, except for Qin Yi and Yun Mengyao who stood, making them particularly conspicuous.
However, Mi Haohao didn't have time to pay attention to Qin Yi and Yun Mengyao, because he saw the severely injured Mi Tianzheng, and of course his face changed drastically as he anxiously rushed over.
Yun Mengyao's figure flickered, coming before Mi Tianzheng first, and she placed her foot on his face, "Step forward, and you'll only be able to collect his corpse."
Mi Haohao's steps froze, he dared not advance further, looking angrily at Yun Mengyao, he sternly said, "Who are you? Do you know the consequences of your actions?"
Yun Mengyao sneered and said, "Indeed, like father like son, truly birds of a feather, even the threats sound the same."
Mi Haohao had obviously been on the battlefield before, the murderous aura on him was strong, and with his anger, it spread involuntarily, causing the surrounding soldiers to tremble in fear.
However, Yun Mengyao was disdainful, the killing intent on Qin Yi was much more terrifying than that of Mi Haohao, she had long been immune to such levels of murderous aura.
"What are you really up to?" Despite Yun Mengyao wounding Mi Tianzheng, Mi Haohao was filled with killing intent but hesitated to act further.
Yun Mengyao sneered, "Is this your son?"
Mi Haohao nodded.
"This wretched fool dared to flirt with me, what do you think I should do with him?"
Mi Haohao clenched his teeth and said, "Miss, I can apologize on behalf of my son. Even though he was wrong, he has already been punished, please, Miss, show mercy."
"For me to show mercy is not impossible, first answer a few of my questions, if I'm satisfied, I might spare this waste."
Mi Haohao's mouth twitched, but he had no choice but to nod in agreement.
"As a leader and a commander recognized by the Royal Family, may I ask why you serve in the military?"
"Of course, for the sake of protecting the country and safeguarding the people." Mi Haohao responded without hesitation.
Yun Mengyao smiled slightly, "Well said. Then let me ask you, if someone oppresses the people, exploits the community, plunders and bullies, leaving the common people with no way to live, what do you think should be done?"
"Such vile individuals should be mercilessly executed."
Yun Mengyao laughed, "Are you speaking the truth?"
"Certainly, otherwise why would we serve as soldiers?"
Yun Mengyao squinted her eyes slightly, "Alright, then kill your good-for-nothing son first. The tyrant who exploits the community, plunders and bullies, leaving the common people with no way to live, is him."
Mi Haohao's expression changed slightly, "Miss, are you joking with me?"
Yun Mengyao sneered, "Don't overestimate yourself, you are not worthy."
Mi Haohao's face suddenly darkened, in Miluo City, Yun Mengyao was the first to dare speak to him like this.
Qin Yi's lip curled slightly, surprised that Yun Mengyao could be so sharp-tongued and infuriating.
"Your son exploits and bullies, his men kill innocents indiscriminately, and he disrespected me, do you call my punishment excessive?"
Mi Haohao's face darkened, "Miss, to forgive is divine, my son has faced punishment, shouldn't you release him?"
"What kind of punishment is this? Anyone who offends me has never survived, yet he still lives."
Mi Haohao sneered, "Do you really intend to kill him?"
As Mi Tianzheng's father, he had heard of Mi Tianzheng's actions but did not believe them, thinking it was slander by those with ill intention.
Yun Mengyao said coldly, "Do you think I don't dare?"
"If you kill him, you won't escape death."
Qin Yi sneered, "Just based on those five thousand troops stationed in the city?"
Mi Haohao looked at Qin Yi, his eyes squinting, "Who are you?"
"Qin Yi, your son ended up like this, it's all because of me. I killed your exploitative men, your son sought me out, and I captured him as a bonus." Qin Yi said earnestly.
Mi Haohao coldly gazed at Qin Yi, "Do you know what you're saying?"
"Are you hard of hearing, or did I not make myself clear?"
"Did you say you killed my men?" Mi Haohao queried.
Qin Yi seriously nodded, "They left no room for the people to live, even took the seeds meant for next year's crops, killed innocents, murdering a three-year-old girl, do you think they didn't deserve to die?"
Mi Haohao's eyes were full of killing intent, "Even if they deserved to die, it was not yours to decide. Killing soldiers is purely against the Royal Family, are you trying to challenge the Royal Family's authority?"
"Did the Royal Family order you to kill indiscriminately, exploit and bully, and force the common people to death?"
Mi Haohao shouted sternly, "How my men conduct themselves is none of your business."
Qin Yi's gaze was indifferent, "I understand."
"Do you realize you've committed a huge crime? It's too late for regret now." Mi Haohao sneered.
"You're adorably stupid." Qin Yi said indifferently, "I said I understand, which means I recognize my choice to kill was correct. As they say, one foolish soldier leads a nest of fools; looking at you, it's no wonder your men are utterly incapable. You don't even deserve the title of warriors, even bandits have more humanity than you.
Seeing this, your so-called Royal Family is rotten to the core as well. Like attracts like, a nest filled with snakes and rats."
"Presumptuous." Suddenly, beside him, the white-robed Confucian Scholar was furious, shouting sternly, pointing at Qin Yi with trembling fingers, "Such audacity, daring to insult the Royal Family, are you seeking a death by a thousand cuts?"
Mi Haohao and all the soldiers were in fear and trepidation, shocked that Qin Yi dared to criticize even the Royal Family, how many lives does he have?
As a modern person, Qin Yi had nothing but disdain for such tyranny.
"Don't be so agitated, the Royal Family you support is nothing in my eyes. Treating the people like this, I foresee their downfall is not far off." Qin Yi said with absolute disdain.
However, he did not know how treasonous his words sounded to others, their faces turned pale with fright.
Such words, never mind saying them, even hearing them was frightening enough to cause spirits to scatter.
"You, you truly are unafraid of death? Daring to insult the Royal Family like this, you'll face a thousand cuts and be executed." Mi Haohao screamed.
Qin Yi merely let out a disdainful snort.
"A nation's ruler should be the people's faith, not their oppressor. It seems you don't understand the concept of water supporting and overturning a boat, talking to you is futile. If one day I encounter the highest authority of this Royal Family, I might just take his foolish head."
"Kill him, kill him, or we'll all be dead." The white-robed Confucian Scholar's face was pale as he shouted in terror.
If someone insults the Royal Family like this and is still alive, then they would be doomed.
