Chapter 295: Surrender Your Tiger Tally

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

“General Qi, these people are supervised by your subordinates. Now there was an accident, don’t you want to say anything about it?”

In the imperial court, someone said these words. Besides, after Lin Qingye and Qi Cheng came back, they did not kneel to Si Chenye. This was also something that the ministers were unhappy about. If His Majesty hadn’t pardoned the meritorious ministers, they would have already been executed for such actions.

Qi Cheng lowered his eyes and did not say anything. This time, Lin Qingye looked up at the person who had stirred things up and said coldly, “Mr. Lin, you have to be careful. There are guards in your residence. If someone dies, you will have to blame the guards for their lack of supervision.”

Vice Minister Lin’s expression changed a lot, not only because of Lin Qingye’s hard gaze, but also because of what he said, which was obviously a threat.

However, he didn’t dare to say a word. Lin Qingye dared to say something like this in the imperial court, which was enough to tell that he was a madman. If he really provoked him, how could he, a low-rank vice minister, fight with the great general?

Suddenly, his face brightened and then darkened.

There was suddenly dead silence in the imperial court. No one expected Lin Qingye to speak so bluntly.

Only Qi Cheng’s eyes suddenly alighted on Lin Qingye when he heard this. He had never heard Brother Qingye threatening others, naturally except for threatening him.

Now that Brother Qingye threatened others, which was because of him. It was obvious that Brother Qingye was venting his anger for him to say it that he didn’t consider himself at all.

Brother Qingye in this appearance even had never appeared in front of Ke Ruan.

A kind of ecstasy appeared on Qi Cheng’s face, completely ignoring such a tense atmosphere now.

Si Chenye coldly glanced about the people below and snorted silently, knowing that these good-for-nothings were absolutely useless.

His voice was faint, “There’s no need to mention it anymore. It’s good that these people are dead.”

Si Chenye’s words made Qi Cheng came down to earth. He looked up at the person sitting on the emperor’s chair. For so many years, from the arrogance when Si Chenye first met him, to the endurance of him who tried to be secretive later, he had almost believed him.

His Majesty was right. One couldn’t make a crab walk straight. A fox may turn gray, but never kind.

So what if he stayed in this position? His men were natur ally his, but if they were not his, even if he fought for it,they wouldn’t be his anymore.

“Now the world is in peace, General Lin and General Qi have contributed the most. You have been fighting outside for so long, that you really need to rest well.”

Qi Cheng sneered. Just as he was about to say something, Lin Qingye glanced at him and made him stopped speaking.

Qi Cheng looked away at the Imperial Guards who suddenly appear outside the imperial palace, and he twitched his lips with ridicule.

Lin Qingye did not look fixedly at him, took out the tiger tally from his arms. “General Qi and I do need to have a rest.”

The smile on the corner of Si Chenye’s mouth become larger. “Issue my imperial edict, General Lin and General Qi have contributed to the resistance to the enemy, and I’ll reward you with 10,000 gold taels and thousand acres of prime arable land.”

Lin Qingye cupped his hands together and said, “Thank you, Your Majesty.”

After going out of the imperial court, Lin Qingye left first. Qi Cheng immediately followed, “Brother Qingye, you just now…”

Before Qi Cheng could finish it, there was a hurried shout behind him.

Lin Qingye’s steps paused and Qi Cheng noticed it that he immediately grabbed his wrist. “Brother Qingye, ignore him. Let’s go.”

The shout behind him became louder and louder, followed by the sound of heavy footsteps. Lin Qingye stopped walking. Now Qi Cheng had no choice but also stopped.
