Lin Kai's eyes lit up, and then he was overjoyed.

Just as I guessed!

Moreover, what follows this "innate superhuman strength" must be... a powerful physical body!

It's definitely the physical body that won't fall! What else could possibly remain intact?

However, the excited expression lingered on his face for a few seconds.

"Let's go back first."

Lin Kai looked at Cui Ji, waved his hand, and then strode towards his residence.

Whether to accept it or not, we'll talk about it later. I'll go back and see...

"As you command, General."

Choi Ki glanced at Lin Kai's retreating figure and nodded.

...

More than two hours later, at Hai time (21-23 PM).

Lin Kai put down his chopsticks and stood up.

"Thirteen prefectures were governed by military governors..."

Lin Kai stroked his chin.

The official system of the Dali Dynasty was somewhat similar to that of the Tang Dynasty.

In terms of rank, a Jiedushi (military governor) is similar to a Grand General.

The difference is that the Grand General is appointed by the imperial court and is subject to its control; but the Military Governor is different. He can control everything, whether it is military power, financial power or personnel appointment and dismissal, he has the final say.

Although Lin Kai was very puzzled, he wondered where the imperial court came from, given that there were thirteen prefectures with military governors. He was even more puzzled about why the Great Li Kingdom had thirteen prefectures with military governors after only two generations.

But Lin Kai was concerned about how to do it.

"Will the other military governors send troops to seize the princess? If I send troops to protect her, will we end up fighting them?"

Lin Kai frowned.

We definitely have to accept the offer. After all, killing the princess will grant us the ability to remain physically invincible, and our strength will increase by 50%, which is a devastating weapon in the era of cold weapons.

But he currently has nothing, and his authority to mobilize troops was only granted by the emperor before...

I thought about it for a moment.

After the servants took away the last dish and closed the door.

"Cui Ji, sell everything that can be sold in the mansion these next few days, and also sell all the fields in my Lin family estate."

Lin Kai made his decision and looked at Cui Ji.

Upon hearing this...

"what?"

Choi Ki's eyes widened instantly, his face filled with surprise.

"Listen to me."

"After selling them, we'll use some of the money to buy armor and weapons, and use the rest to find some thugs outside the city and recruit men, preferably strong ones."

Lin Kai didn't explain, but directly told what to do next.

Let's recruit some soldiers first... Even 800 will do, they're bound to get things done.

Otherwise, who knows if he might mobilize troops to deal with the military governor of XX today, only to have the emperor issue an imperial edict to take back his military power tomorrow?

Moreover, this is a female-oriented website; if the emperor gives the order, these soldiers will actually turn against you...

"Young master, why are you recruiting soldiers? Don't tell me you're planning to...?"

Choi Ki paused subconsciously, even blurting out their private nickname, but in the end, Choi Ki covered his mouth in shock.

A general who is detached from the capital is secretly selling his property to buy armor and weapons, and recruiting soldiers. What is he up to?

However, Lin Kai only glanced at Cui Ji.

"And the Lu family of Zhenliaocheng, I need their detailed information by noon tomorrow."

Then, Lin Kai waved his hand.

The Lu family, huh... Lu Yao even tried to poison the General. If the Lu family isn't eradicated, I'm not a Lin!

...

Objectively speaking, Lin Kai initially suspected that Lu Yao's poisoning of him might be part of a trap, since it seemed rather suspicious that a powerful family would poison a general...

But when he realized that this was a female-oriented world, Lin Kai dismissed the idea.

Why overestimate the political intrigue in female-oriented novels...? Most of the time, it's just a stupid woman who, in her arrogance and impulsiveness, drags her entire family down with her...

the next day.

The blinding sunlight streamed in through the window.

Lin Kai had just opened his sleepy eyes.

"Thump! Thump! Thump!"

A series of muffled sounds came from outside the window.

Hear this sound.

"Um?"

Lin Kai, instantly wide awake, rolled out of bed.

"What's going on?"

"What's going on outside? Is an enemy country attacking the city? Or is it banditry?"

As Lin Kai picked up his clothes from the chair and put them on, he looked at Cui Ji, who was standing respectfully beside him, and asked a question.

Why is it so loud and noisy? It sounds like being hit by a heavy hammer... Could it be that Zhenliaocheng is under attack?

"Young master, don't panic. Someone is beating the drum of grievance."

Choi Ki shook his head.

"So that's how it is. I was wondering... the grievance drum?"

Hearing this, Lin Kai breathed a sigh of relief, patted his chest, and then froze.

What kind of grievance drum is this?

A general, ordered to inspect the garrison, set up a grievance drum.

"What's wrong, young master?"

"Isn't that right? According to the regulations of the Dali Dynasty, everyone has the right to appeal for justice, and every official of rank should have a grievance drum set up in their residence."

Meeting Lin Kai's gaze, Cui Ji's eyes widened, his face full of confusion.

Lin Kai: ...

"The female-oriented genre of 'Gutter'..."

Lin Kai cursed inwardly and gritted his teeth.

I thought about it.

"Go and see who's complaining. I'll be there in a bit..."

Lin Kai waved his hand, and at the end, he sighed.

...

Although Lin Kai was somewhat reluctant to engage with him, after all, he was a military officer, and people should seek redress from civil officials, not him.

But yesterday's events reminded Lin Kai of something.

The moral blackmail in female-oriented content is quite severe; if the soldiers think you're unworthy of your position, they really will take action against you...

After a cup of tea.

After Lin Kai finished dressing, he sat down in the chair at the head of the reception room.

"General Lin, how have you been?"

A hearty laugh rang out.

Immediately afterward, in Lin Kai's sight, a man dressed in a scarlet robe with a round collar and right-fastening front, and embroidered wild geese on the front and back, stepped forward.

They met the man's gaze.

"Isn't this Jiang Shou, the prefect of Zhenliaocheng?"

Lin Kai's eyelids twitched, and after a moment of surprise, he stood up.

Although the prefect was a fourth-rank official, he still wielded real power, far superior to a general like him who only had the authority to mobilize troops and whose authority was determined by the emperor.

However, Lin Kai was just about to bow.

"Master, how could you do this? You promised to arrest Lin Kai as soon as you entered the Lin residence!"

A sweet, scolding voice rang out, soft and gentle, yet carrying seven parts resentment and three parts dissatisfaction.

As the words fell, a woman in a purple ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress) strode into the reception room.

【Host detected %】(Actually: Objects around the host were detected)

"?"

Lin Kai glanced at the pop-up data panel and blinked.

But next second.

"They're here!"

A hint of joy flashed across Lin Kai's eyes.

This "Gecko Wall Climbing" skill is pretty awesome! It not only increases agility but also reduces the risk of being caught.

But why would the wife of a prefect step forward to take on a mission?

Could it be because this woman could persuade the prefect to strengthen the city's defenses? Or is it because this woman usually manages the finances of Zhenliaocheng?

While Lin Kai was pondering.

"Please calm down, Madam."

"After all, we'll run into each other all the time, I'm just following the rules, aren't I?"

Jiang Shou chuckled and grabbed Lu Yu's right hand, patting it on the shoulder.

That's all.

"General Lin, according to the laws of Dali, those who commit murder must pay with their lives."

"Although you are a general of noble status, killing is killing. Since ancient times, the emperor has been subject to the same laws as the common people. I cannot bend the law for your sake."

Jiang Shou looked at Lin Kai, spoke solemnly, and then shook his head.

Lin Kai: ?

what?

"So, you've come to take me back?"

"No."

"It seems the female-oriented genre still hasn't been abstracted enough..."

"The Lady's cousin was killed by General Lin, which is one crime; General Yuan was killed, which is a second crime. Therefore, there is no need for General Lin to conduct a joint trial by the three judicial authorities. He should immediately commit suicide to atone for his crimes."
