Chapter 487 - 487 0338 Save Someone to The End_2

?Chapter 487: Chapter 0338: Save Someone to The End_2 Chapter 487: Chapter 0338: Save Someone to The End_2 In order to minimize costs and avoid deficits in Prince Duan Manor, Zhao Zhiwei personally decided to resort to the current method, enslaving people and dismantling the villagers’ houses. As a result, the virtually ghost village observed by Qi Tian emerged.

Zhao Zhiwei is Prince Duan’s son and the future Prince Duan. As Prince Duan is the current Emperor’s own son, numerous officials desire to flatter Prince Duan Manor. Furthermore, this issue is also tied to the Guardian National Master Manor, which holds almost as much power and influence as Prince Duan Manor, so they dare not intervene. They turned a blind eye to the life and death of common villagers, arguing that they were just commoners. Pleasing Prince Duan Manor and the Guardian National Master Manor was their priority.

Such incidents have happened more than once within the borders of Great Zhao, and this will not be the last. Similar incidents have occurred in the past, but the parties involved did not receive much punishment afterwards, especially if it involved the National Master Manor. The imperial court would not rebuke them. In fact, they would even offer them rewards to appease them. After all, the deterrent force of a Gold Core cultivator is too large. If the royal family of Great Zhao wants to maintain its stability, it must not quarrel with the National Master Manor.

These cultivators supervising the mines and forcing villagers into labor, some were disciples of Cheng Wenbin, while others were hired by Prince Duan Manor. Though they hail from humble backgrounds, since embarking on the path of immortal cultivation, they consider themselves superior, treating ordinary people as nothing but ants, an endless supply of fodder. They were naturally hard on these common people, overworking them in a bid to please Prince Duan’s son and Cheng Wenbin. If a batch of them died, they could always capture more from another village.

That’s the root and branch of the matter. It doesn’t seem complex, but the forces involved are intimidating to the point that no one dares to interfere, like the local officials. Who dares to intervene, to meddle?
