Chapter 1237: Passionate Scolding

After Baifeng finished reading all the documents and letters, he realized there was nothing left to ask these people; in any case, they knew nothing when asked, and they might even stir up some trouble, which was completely not worth it.

So Baifeng waved his hand directly and arranged, "Alright, there is nothing for you here anymore. Someone will take you to where you are staying in a moment. Just look around Huaxia as you please these few days. Remember, committing crimes is forbidden; if you commit a crime, you will be punished just the same."

"Also, for those who want to see your Chengqie and your tribesmen, just tell the people from the Ministry of Rites, and let them take you there. Only come find me if it truly cannot be resolved."

"I will have these things processed, and then I will have someone notify you. It will probably take two or three days."

Once Baifeng finished saying this, he didn't even give the people below a chance to continue asking questions; he just stood up and left to go work elsewhere, leaving behind a large group of bewildered people.

The Leaders could only say that they had waited in vain in this office for so long, and then nothing happened. They were even curious about who the people from the Ministry of Rites were.

As soon as they were driven out the door, they saw a person lying on the ground, unable to even moan. He had only been punished with two lashes by Baifeng, and now he had already ended up like this.

The Ministry of Rites Official now found these people very detestable because they did not understand the rules and had bad tempers, which had angered the King. Therefore, even though they were the ones managing them, they no longer had any good temper or good attitude; they were completely different people from when they first picked them up.

"Leader, may I ask, where is our Leader Chengqie? We want to go see him."

The Ministry of Rites Official said with some annoyance, "He is still in class. You cannot see him now. Once he finishes class, you will naturally see him. For now, just take him back and let him recover properly for a few days, alright?"

"Class? What class? Are you torturing our Leader and don't want us to know?"

The Ministry of Rites Official was completely speechless, feeling that there was simply no way to communicate with these people, so they couldn't be bothered to answer and just pretended not to hear.

"Hey! Did you hear me? Where is our Leader Chengqie?" Not only did they loudly question with such a bad attitude, they even started reaching out to grab people. The Ministry of Rites Official was angry to the extreme, turned around, pointed a small finger, and the rapping began!

"What on earth are you people thinking? Savages are just savages; you don't understand etiquette at all. And you even claim to be of the Suiren Clan? Stop shaming the Suiren Clan; just say you are savages from wherever you came from."

"Baoxi already said he is a person of Huaxia and is willing to join Huaxia. What do you want to do? Do you want to be the Tribal Chief yourselves? You aren't even willing to listen to your own Tribal Chief, are you?"

"Today you even dared to contradict the King and dared to curse. You were hit with two lashes and still haven't learned your lesson? Even an ox can understand human speech after being hit with a few lashes, yet you people cannot understand anything."

"What, are you still planning to curse me now? Let me tell you, I am an official of the Ministry of Rites, of Huaxia, an official with a proper Official Seal! What are you? You are nothing!"

"You were sent by Baoxi, which is why you were able to sit here, go into that office to sit for a while, and take a look. Do you think you will ever be able to get in there again?"

"Never mind the King, just being able to see me is your good fortune!"

"You still dare to act like people and curse me here? Laozi is going to curse you today!"

"Damn it, let me tell you, your Leader, Chengqie, is in class, he is learning! He cannot come out to see you. When he is out of class, he will naturally be able to come over. Now, you lot, obediently follow me. I have arranged a place for you to rest; go stay there and rest properly."

"As for Chengqie, I will naturally notify him. When the time comes, we will see if he comes to find you or if you go find him. He is living well and doing well, much better than being a savage in the Suiren Clan."

"Now just wait for me. If you can wait, then wait; if you can't, then go die. I can't be bothered to care about you, understand?"

Because they were fierce enough, they really did shout these people into submission. They were truly too much; even the Ministry of Rites Official, who usually paid the most attention to etiquette and politeness, had been provoked into a rage and was now directly cursing out loud.

As for the people of the Suiren Clan, their vocabulary was originally limited, so where had they ever heard so much cursing? They were immediately stunned in terms of momentum. Plus, because their movements were too loud, they had already felt the gazes of those few Soldiers wearing Full Armor, feeling that if they moved any more, they would immediately rush over, tie them up, and beat them.

Having already repeated many times that Chengqie was fine, these people could only lower their heads and follow the Ministry of Rites Official. The Ministry of Rites Official was still snorting like an ox or horse, breathing very heavily.

They had finally managed to negotiate the use of the courtyard for a few days, only for it to be given to such a group of people. They might as well have just let them set up a Tent in the open; did they deserve to live in a good place? Damn it!

Cursing and grumbling, they led them to the courtyard and divided it up casually. They could live however they wanted; the Ministry of Rites Official was too lazy to put any effort into managing them. Just then, they saw the person in charge, personally appointed by Baifeng.

"Hey, your name is Fu, right!"

Fu hurriedly came over to respond: "Yes, Leader, my name is Fu."

"Since the King asked you to be in charge of these people, then you take charge. I am telling you, the two courtyards here are for you people to live in, so just sleep here."

"Do not touch anything in the courtyard, and do not touch anything in the rooms. If there is any damage, you will be punished."

"If there is anything you don't understand or don't know, ask the staff inside and let them arrange it for you. Every day when it is time to eat, someone will come to call you; you just go and eat."

"If you don't want to go out for a walk these few days, then just stay here and don't move around. If you are planning to go out for a walk, then remember, you must not run around everywhere, do not enter other people's courtyards, do not..."

A series of "do nots"—do not do this, do not do that. After listening, Fu felt that he should just stay in the room and not go out. No, he shouldn't even enter the room; he should just squat down on the spot, that way he would definitely not make any mistakes.

After making these arrangements for Fu, the Ministry of Rites Official flicked their sleeves and left. They didn't want to stay here for even a second. As for what they had just said, it was just everything they could think of to keep them from causing trouble.

Although it was harsh, there was no other way. They did not trust these people, and there were too many of them. If they wanted to make them behave, there was only one way: wait for Chengqie to arrange them.

Now that Chengqie was still in class, they might as well go squat at the school gate. As soon as Chengqie came out, they would go find him, tell him what had happened, and let him solve it himself.

As for Chengqie, in that school, he was the biggest in size, so he could be spotted at a glance; he was too easy to find.
