The Ruler
169. Heian City 3.
Qing Ruo's words instantly caught everyone's attention, making them stop and start crowding the place.
" This young man is really brave. Does he want to break the rules of this city." Whispering with fellow passersby who were in that place.
In front of them. The two young men who looked evil tried to dramatize the atmosphere.
" Sister, don't joke. Does Suadara want to make a fuss in this place?"
" I warned you from the beginning. Don't bother me. But you consider my warning a wind of the past."
" Sister, we-"
" When did I become your brother?" qing Ruo said with a cold look.
" Gege," Qing Ling said as she grabbed Qing Ruo's hand, and grasped it tightly.
" Gentlemen, do you know my husband?" Qing Ling asked, looking at the two young men intently.
The question made the two figures look at each other, and look evil.
" Mr, of course. Your husband is our good travel companion. So we would like to invite him and you to eat together at Hua Bing's inn restaurant" the young man said, trying to shut down his nervousness.
" If so do you know his name?" With a sharp look. It even made some of the passersby who started to gather at the place even more curious.
" Mr, of course we don't know, because-"
" No idea, that means gentlemen do want to bother us. So can such an action be reported to the city's security?" qing Ling asked the people who stopped by that place.
Qing Ling's words made the two young men so frightened.
" Right madam, their actions can be reported to the city security," replied several youths.
" Oh no" said the two young men in a panic, as they were unable to give any more excuses.
Not long after, one city security soldier consisting of twenty people, arrived at that place.
" Gentlemen, what's wrong?"
" Soldiers, these two young men continue to follow us and want to oppress us" said Qing Ling, who was justified by several young men who were at the place.
The arrival of the soldier made the two young men more and more drunk.
" Brother, what should we do?"
" Keep calm. If we run away, it'll justify our actions."
" How about...."
" Brother, calm down." trying to be relaxed.
The appearance of the soldier made Qing Ling who was trying to calm Qing Ruo who was ready to go berserk was finally a little relieved.
" Soldiers, secure them. Don't let my husband run amok in your city" Qing Ling spoke telepathically to the soldier seriously.
" Good Mistress." As he looked at Qing Ruo who looked calm yet with such a cold gaze.
The soldier who immediately responded to Qing Ling's request then approached the two young men.
" Gentlemen, come with us" he said firmly.
" Mister, madam, to give us a statement, you are also coming" the soldier said kindly.
" Alright," Qing Ling replied.
Without a fight, the two young men then went with some of the soldiers.
" Gentlemen, I'm sorry to make such a fuss in this place," Qing Ling apologized, then led Qing Ruo away from the place, following the soldier who had been waiting for them.
On Qing Ling's side, Qing Ruo who was indeed controlling her emotions, continued to step her feet.
" Ling er, thank you," he said softly speaking to Qing Ling via telepathy.
Qing Ling nodded her head, tightening her hand.
" Gege, calm yourself. This is the city of the great ruler of the north.we will really get into trouble if we open up a commotion in this place, besides this matter has also been dealt with," he said softly.
" This is the reason why I don't want to tolerate even the slightest disturbance, because if I'm being lenient, the problem will go something like this."
" I know. But this is not a small town where we can act recklessly," Qing Ling replied continuously advising him.
" Thank you Gege for thinking about it" he said softly.
" But our plans today must be disrupted because of this little problem."
" Be calm, once this matter is over, we can still continue."
Before him were Qing Ruo and Qing Ling
The two young men continued to step foot following the soldier, without daring to turn their heads at Qing Ruo and Qing Ling who were behind him.
Not long after, they finally arrived at the Heian city justice hall.
" Gentlemen, please," said the soldier inviting Qing Ruo and Qing Ling, as well as the two young men to enter the hall.
" Alright, sir," Qing Ruo and Qing Ling replied simultaneously.
****
Inside the Hall.
In the main seat, sat a middle-aged man, who was a fifth level semi-eternal swordsman, staring intently at the arrival of Qing Ruo and his entourage.
Not long after. The soldier who brought Qing Ruo and his entourage then reported the situation that had occurred on the streets of the previous city in detail.
" Alright," he said as he asked the soldier to leave, then set his sights on Qing Ruo and his entourage.
" Make offenses in the city. Didn't you guys get the basic manuals from the city gate guard soldiers?" ask the judge with a sharp look.
" We got your majesty." Answer Qing Ruo.
" Then you guys?" the judge asked the two men.
" Get your majesty" they answered nervously.
" That means you already know the punishment. Disrupting the serenity and comfort of the common good, the punishment is to pay a fine of fifty million immortal soul crystals and get a one-month imprisonment by working inside the silver mines of the great ruler," he said firmly.
" Well, I'd like to hear a report from you. You," he said giving Qing Ruo his first chance.
" Good noble, thank you. I don't know what their purpose is to follow me. It started from the city of Bao, until I arrived in this city, Qing Ruo explained the matter in detail.
The judge nodded his head, then looked at the two young men.
" What do you argue about this?"
" Your Majesty, we do not mean that. Our initial goal was to establish a meeting with this brother, because he was a friend of young master Bao Teng," replied one of the youths explaining.
The judge was silent. Staring at Qing Ruo fixedly.
" Young master, the rebuttal."
" Your Majesty, they even threatened me. And act as if I were their prisoner. Is there such a friendship? Moreover, there were still three others who were still in Hua Bing's inn," Qing Ruo replied.
" Brother, don't exaggerate something that doesn't exist. Moreover, the brothers seem so stupid that they hate us."
Qing Ruo set her sights on the judge, disregarding the two young men.
" Your Majesty, I have already explained this matter. Please your majesty decide."
" Your Majesty, because from the beginning we also did not want to make trouble in this city. Please decide the matter fairly" said the young man, who also spoke.
The judge was silent. Staring at Qing Ruo and the two young men in turn.
" This issue is too biased. To give justice. I will release you, but I raise the fine one fold. So the fine per person becomes a hundred million immortal soul crystals," he said firmly.
Qing Ruo nodded her head.
" Good, but after this I can't guarantee restraint. Earlier I kept restraining myself because I respected the Great Lord of the North." While handing over the storage sneaker that contained two hundred million soul crystals, made the judge and everyone in the room speechless.
" Sister, he so easily handed over that huge sum of money. Really rich," said the soldier who was in the room in amazement.
" He turned out to be very rich. My goal was to deliver the sentence in the hope that they would not be able to pay the fine, so that I could put them in jail." The judge slammed in, staring at the two young men who looked so ugly.
" Your Majesty, is this matter over?"
" Of course" answered the judge kindly.
" Good Majesty, we're leaving" Qing Ruo said as she cupped her hands respectfully, then brought Qing Ling to leave the room.
