Chapter 1582 You are insulting me
"Rest assured, Your Highness. Pingbei will do his utmost!"Su Ping cupped his hands and said seriously.He nodded and said, “It’s good to have this spirit. At least you haven’t disgraced the reputation...Chapter 1582 You Are Insulting Me
Looking at Xiao Tiannan who suddenly appeared before them, Gu Zawan Dashan and Gu Zatai Long's expressions were a little tense.
Xiao Tiannan is a strategist for Yelü Shenxuan and belongs to the civil service.
Despite the fact that bureaucrats were not well-regarded in the Liao dynasty, with a status and treatment far inferior to warriors who could contribute tangible assets like livestock, people, land to the state, the presence of a civilian official under Yelu Shenxuan signifies another role: inspector.
The privilege of being able to speak directly with Yelu Shenxuan gave officials like Xiao Tiannan an elevated status within the army, because no one wanted such a supervisory official to speak ill of them in front of Yelu Shenxuan.
As for the Guza tribe, a slave tribe already oppressed and exploited, Xiao Tiannan's identity was almost equivalent to that of an imperial envoy.
"Mr. Xiao."
Guza Wanda Mountain bowed respectfully, and said politely, even a little reverently, “It was indeed people from our tribe who came earlier, but what we said had absolutely nothing to do with war.”
"At this moment, a massive army is besieging the city. The battle is fierce and chaotic. If it's unrelated to the war, what else could it be related to"
Xiao Tiannan sneered, he wasn't that easily fooled.
"You both should know how serious the crime of leaking military information is."
Gutzawa completed his explanation, though a furrow remained in his brow. "Master Xiao seems to have misunderstood. The tribe members who came earlier were only inquiring about the casualties among our warriors and whether more soldiers would be needed."
Xiao Tiannan sneered, "Do you think I'm a fool"
"In your daily lives, you resisted letting one more soldier join the army to serve the country. Now that you are besieged and suffering heavy casualties, you suddenly come to inquire about the wounded"
Xiao Tiannan's face turned cold, and he said sternly: "Gu Zawan Dashi, Gu Zatailon, what are you plotting Come clean. If you conceal even a bit, wait until I report to the prince and investigate the truth. Not only will you suffer, but your entire tribe will be implicated!"
Guzavanta Shan and Guzatai Lon's faces changed.
Guza Taron's temper was fiercer, and he couldn't bear it right away.
If it were just on ordinary days, it wouldn't matter so much. After all, we're used to enduring whatever comes our way and have long since gotten accustomed to the various forms of discrimination that officials from all levels of government in Liaodong show towards us, as if we were slaves.
Now that he knew his tribe was no longer willing to endure this, Guzataylor did not want to suffer any longer.
Just as Guzataron was about to speak, Guzawatanshan took a half step forward and blocked Guzataron with half his body. Clearly, he was stopping Guzataron.
"Master Xiao."
"In the future, if Master Xiao has any orders, our brothers will never frown."
Xiao Tiannan listened to Gu Zawan Dashan's words, his palm clenched. With his proficient business acumen, he immediately sensed that the pouch of silver in his hand wouldn't exceed... two ounces.
This number humiliated Xiao Tiannan.
He slammed the silver in his hand onto Guzaxand's chest, his face dark with anger. "You dare insult me!"tory. This palace thought that the northwest was a harsh and desolate place with difficult conditions, so I was mentally prepared for hardship. Unexpectedly, the situation here at your manor is so pro...
