I'm Ecstatic About Transmigrating Into a Novel As the Villainous Empress's Follower

42: Section 42But now, he truly could not do anything!

He could only swallow his words back into his stomach in frustration...

”Marquis, slow down, watch the steps!”

At this moment, a burst of footsteps suddenly came from afar.

Only to see Prefect Liu of the Jingzhao Prefecture personally accompanying a young man to the prison, and then stopping in front of the cell where Second Uncle Xu’s family was held.

”Is this the family of Head Guard Xu who escorted the tax silver?” Cao Yang asked indifferently.

”Replying to the Marquis, yes.” Prefect Liu replied with a smile.

”Since the tax silver has been found, we might as well release them...” Cao Yang said calmly.

”This...” Prefect Liu hesitated somewhat.

However, he still dared not slight the Face of Cao Yang.

Besides, Cao Yang was the inspector appointed by the Empress, specifically in charge of this case, so he had the authority to order their release.

Thinking of this, Prefect Liu hurriedly said: ”Since the Marquis is showing mercy, it can be considered good fortune for Head Guard Xu and his family. Someone, open the cell door for Head Guard Xu and his family...”

Inside the cell, seeing this young noble Young Master arrive and release his family with just a few words, Second Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu An were both somewhat dazed.

After coming to their senses, they hurriedly bowed in gratitude: ”Thank you, my lord, for your mercy!”

”May I ask how we should address you, my lord?”

”Cao Yang.” Cao Yang said indifferently.

Marquis of Pingyang, Cao Yang?!

Second Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu An were shocked!

The reputation of this sycophant of the Empress was famous throughout the capital; it was enough to stop children from crying at night!

Could he actually be showing such kindness to release their family?

Instead, the delicate and pretty Xu Qingyue, huddled in her mother’s arms, curiously took a look at Cao Yang, and then timidly withdrew her gaze.

This young Marquis needed only one sentence to save her father from losing his head, and to keep her and her mother from entering the Official Entertainment. How wonderful...

”What?”

”Is the name of This Marquis so terrifying?”

Cao Yang narrowed his eyes, revealing the smile of Traitor Cao...

”No, no!”

”Marquis, please don’t misunderstand...”

Second Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu An hurriedly shook their heads.

Fearing that one careless move would provoke this sycophant of the Empress.

Although Cao Yang’s name was indeed very terrifying, they dared not say it!

... Cao Yang?

Beside them, seeing this young noble Young Master appear and, with just one sentence, have the Prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture release his Second Uncle’s family, Xu An’s eyes were unkind, and he was quite displeased.

It was clearly the same words; why was it that when he said them, there was no effect at all?

This guy just moved his lips, and the Jingzhao Prefecture released the people? How unfair!

It seems this world is much the same. What kind of legal justice? It’s all just directed at ordinary commoners like them... Hmph!

Thinking this way, the look Xu An cast toward Cao Yang and Prefect Liu became even more displeased.

It was just that Cao Yang and Prefect Liu didn’t even glance at a nobody like him...

”Lack of manners!”

”The Marquis showed mercy and released you, and this is the attitude you show?”

Seeing the panicked expressions on the Faces of Second Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu An, Prefect Liu immediately scolded.

”The Marquis’s great kindness is unforgettable!”

”We will definitely keep Marquis Cao’s favor in our hearts for a lifetime!”

Coming to their senses, Second Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu An hurriedly expressed their gratitude once again.

That’s right! No matter what Cao Yang’s reputation was, today, he was the one who showed great kindness and rescued their family.

”Unforgettable?”

Cao Yang looked at the two of them with a smile, his gaze playful: ”What use is just keeping it in your hearts?”
