Walker Of The Worlds
Chapter 10
Yuan Tu had many thoughts about what would happen today, but being imprisoned was not one of them. Looking at the direction the day was heading, it seemed like that would become reality soon enough.
Yuan Tu had been holding his breath in dread of the judgment that was about to come.
Li Peng declared,
"Yuan Tu. You have falsely accused Lin Mu of theft, and have attacked him along with other peasants which were also incited by you. You have but one chance to speak in your defense."
"I… I… I'm innocent, Sir Supervisor. I was only trying to protect the mayor's property and not let the boy steal any spirit apples."
"I yelled at him because he came back to the town when you exiled him Sir, and attacked him so he would learn his lesson and not come back."
Li Peng raised his eyebrows and stated,
"I never said I exiled him, did I? I had him thrown out of the town, but he was not explicitly exiled. His punishment was for his property to be confiscated, and be thrown out of the town by the guards, not exile."
"But... but Sir Supervisor, I thought you meant to exile the boy when you threw him out... I just assumed."
With an amused tone, Li Peng spoke,
"Oh? Since when can mere peasants assume the judgments of officials? Hmm, have you lost sight of your standing?"
Yuan Tu's back was covered in a cold sweat, once again, upon hearing the supervisor's words. Yuan Tu could not speak, feeling as if there was a lump stuck inside his throat.
Looking at the frozen face of Yuan Tu, Li Peng continued,
"Well then that settles it, now hear your crime."
"Yuan Tu was found to be guilty of falsely accusing Lin Mu of theft, inciting a crowd to attack Lin Mu, and delaying the process of harvest - which was of the utmost importance."
"I order Yuan Tu to receive twenty lashes and to be imprisoned for a month."
"Guards, take him away."
hearing the supervisor's orders, the guards promptly held Yuan Tu, who had a dumbstruck expression, and
surprised at hearing the supervisor's judgment. He had intended to only save himself from false accusations, but did not expect for Yuan Tu to be punished instead. He turned to the three mercenaries, not knowing why they would change their stance so
