Qin Shi: I only work eight hours

Chapter 106 Execution of Mi Fang's Three Clans?
Xu Lin ignored him and had his letter sent to Xianyang.

Yan Lingji tried to stop him, but Xu Lin grabbed her wrist.

"rest assured."

I will not force you to do anything because of this.

"If you really feel bad about it, then do your best!"

Seeing Yan Lingji's worried expression, Xu Lin smiled and offered some advice.

Upon hearing this, Yan Lingji sighed helplessly.

Given the situation, did she have any other choice but to agree?
Xu Lin is getting more and more domineering!

However, since Xu Lin's domineering behavior was for her own good, Yan Lingji did not resent it, at least not in her heart.

……

Three days later.

Thanks to artemisinin, the daily death toll in Bavaria County dropped from dozens to zero.

The people of Ba County would bring Nian Duan food every day and kneel down to express their gratitude, which made Nian Duan feel very embarrassed, since it was Xu Lin's invention.

That evening, after dinner, Nian Duan went to Xu Lin's residence.

Xu Lin did not stay at an inn, but instead stayed in a bamboo house on the outskirts of the city.

The bamboo house was found for him by the Shadow Guard assassins, and unable to refuse their hospitality, Xu Lin had no choice but to stay.

When Nian Duan arrived, Xu Lin was in his room soaking his feet in hot water while playing chess with Yan Ling Ji.

"benefactor."

"Guests are coming."

"Let's fight another day!"

Upon seeing Nian Duan through the sound, Yan Ling Ji immediately put away the chess pieces.

She was about to lose when Nian Duan arrived just in time.

Seeing this, Xu Lin smiled and shook his head. They had no stakes, so what if they lost?

"I wonder what brings Mr. Nian Duan here so late at night?"

Xu Lin took the foot-wiping cloth handed to him by Yan Lingji and asked while wiping his feet.

"There are some things I shouldn't have said, but..."

Nian Duan pursed her thin lips, hesitating to speak.

"There are no outsiders here, Mr. Nian Duan, please feel free to speak your mind!"

Xu Lin said loudly.

Then I washed my hands with clean water.

Upon hearing this, Yan Lingji swiftly ascended to the rooftop like a wisp of smoke. Standing high up, she could see far and wide, ensuring that no one could eavesdrop!

"it is good."

"Sir, it's like this."

"Although malaria has been brought under control in Sichuan and Chongqing, hundreds of people have died from malaria in Sichuan and Chongqing, especially in the vicinity of Jiangzhou."

"If treatment had been provided earlier, not only would no one have died, but at least 50%, or even more than 70%, of the deaths could have been prevented."

“In the past few days, many people from Jiangzhou have come to me about this matter, hoping that I can report it to higher authorities.”

Nian Duan stepped forward a few steps and said softly.

"I am a doctor, and I shouldn't be involved in official matters, but..."

Nian Duan, with a kind heart, added.

"You did the right thing."

Xu Lin said seriously.

“Even if you don’t come, I will not let the Prefect of Ba County off lightly.”

Xu Lin added in a deep voice.

After he finished speaking, he poured Nian a bowl of boiled water.

After chatting about the recent malaria situation in Jiangzhou and other places, Xu Lin saw Nian Duan off and went to the Prefect's Mansion with Yan Lingji.

Although it was late at night, the prefect's mansion was still brightly lit.

"Isn't everyone saying that Prefect Mi is seriously ill?"

Why are the guards at the gate chatting and laughing?

Xu Lin looked at Yan Lingji beside him and asked with a smile.

After saying this, he dismounted and walked straight to the gate.

Yan Lingji, with her flowing hair like a waterfall, removed her hairpin and followed closely behind.

"Who are you waiting for?"

"The Prefect is currently unwell and unable to see you..."

The guard looked in the direction of the sound and, upon seeing Xu Lin and Yan Lingji, said without hesitation.

He was interrupted before he could finish his words.

What interrupted him was not Xu Lin, but the Shadow Guard token at Xu Lin's waist.

The Shadow Guard token at Xu Lin's waist was purple and exquisitely crafted, clearly indicating that Xu Lin was a high-ranking member of the Shadow Guard.

"Please wait a moment, sir!"

The guard said respectfully.

After saying that, he turned and ran towards the study.

At this moment, Mi Fang, the governor of Ba Commandery, was in his study, stroking a maid's thigh while eating a large amount of fish and meat.

"My lord!" "Something terrible has happened!"

"High-ranking members of the Shadow Guard request an audience!"

The guard reported in a low voice.

"High-ups?"

"How high can it be?"

"not see!"

“Tell him I…”

Mi Fang disagreed.

He was interrupted before he could finish his words.

"What serious illness has Prefect Mi contracted that he still has such a good appetite?"

Xu Lin kicked open the wooden door and asked with a half-smile.

The guards of the prefect's mansion tried to stop them, but they couldn't stop them at all!

"I wonder who you are?"

Mi Fang looked towards Xu Lin in the direction of the voice and asked in a humble yet assertive manner.

It's true that the Shadow Guard is only responsible to Ying Zheng, but he is still a prefect of a commandery, and Huayang Palace is behind him, so he acted very calmly!

"Deputy Commander of the Shadow Guard".

Xu Lin said expressionlessly.

Upon hearing this, Mi Fang was first taken aback, then shocked.

Then he fixed his gaze on Xu Lin.

He quickly recognized the person in front of him as Xu Lin, who had recently risen to fame.

Xu Lin was the only deputy commander of the Shadow Guard. After Lü Buwei died, he saw a portrait of Xu Lin.

"So it was Commander Xu."

"What brings Commander Xu here so late at night?"

Thinking of this, Mi Fang asked with a forced smile.

He deliberately called Xu Lin "Commander Xu" instead of "Deputy Commander Xu" in order to curry favor with Xu Lin.

After speaking, he immediately wiped the grease from the corners of his mouth with a piece of paper and chased away the heavily made-up maid.

"Malaria has already broken out in Jiangzhou and other places. Why have you been so slow to report it?"

Xu Lin stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at him and asking.

"At first I thought it wasn't serious and could be controlled, so..."

Mi Fang defended herself.

After saying that, he strode to the bookshelf and took out a jar of wine from a hidden compartment.

He bought this jar of wine at great expense; it's priceless, and he usually can't bear to drink it.

"Why haven't you stepped forward recently to assist Xia Wuqie and the others in rescuing people?"

Xu Lin pressed on with a stern face.

“I would like to help, but my health is inconsistent.”

"In addition, His Majesty sent Li Si, Chief Secretary Li, no, I should say Prefect Li, so I put Prefect Li in full charge of this matter."

Mi Fang explained.

He spoke with such conviction and conviction that it seemed like the truth; he was clearly a seasoned veteran of the officialdom!

As soon as he finished speaking, he personally poured Xu Lin a glass of wine.

"grown ups."

"If I remember correctly, it was you who recommended Li Si, the Chief Secretary... look at my mouth, the Prefectural Magistrate Li, to the King."

"It is a blessing for Ba County that His Majesty has sent Prefect Li to Ba County at this time!"

Mi Fang said with utmost respect.

Then he handed the wine bottle to Xu Lin with both hands.

"I do not drink."

Xu Lin said coldly.

"Knowing the truth but not reporting it, he lied about being seriously ill, while spending his days drinking and making merry in his mansion."

"In your eyes, are ordinary people just numbers?"

Xu Lin questioned him sternly.

When Mi Fang saw that Xu Lin was really angry, she immediately sensed something was wrong and quickly put down her wine cup.

"My lord, please let me explain. I didn't lie..."

Mi Fang swallowed hard and explained earnestly.

Before he could finish speaking, Xu Lin interrupted him again.

"Knowingly breaking the law has led to the wrongful deaths of nearly a thousand people."

"What crime should be punished under this law?"

Xu Lin spoke sternly and sternly.

"His entire family should be executed!"

Yan Lingji replied in a cool, clear voice.

She rarely read books before, but recently, influenced by Xu Lin, she has been flipping through Qin law whenever she has free time, so she knows how to judge!
Upon hearing this, the fat and big-eared Mi Fang felt a jolt in her heart and her legs went weak instantly.
