"Enough."
The Emperor grew irritated by the wailing below, waving his hand as if to shoo away flies. In the next moment, the entire grand hall fell silent. All those who had just been sobbing stopped at once, as if by signal.
"Pang Ban."
"Your servant is here."
"The Xuanqing Guard's 'Jingxi' operation was a great success. According to your original plan, clean out all the vermin in the Jingxi Territory—leave not a single one. Execute those who should be killed, imprison those who should be locked up, and anyone who dares obstruct shall be implicated as well. As for places outside Jingxi, transfer them to the Ministry of Justice for investigation."
