The moment he was captured, he realized what a major change tonight would bring.
He had thought he would be brought before some leader of the Peace Path, but to his surprise, it was his colleague, whom he had worked with for seven or eight years.
"You, as an official of the Imperial Court, you actually conspired with the Demon People of the Peace Path to rebel?" Qi Wanshan was incredulous, then shouted: "Do you know what you're doing?"
"How could I not know what I'm doing."
Ma Tianlin chuckled and said:
"I've been lying low in this small county office for seven years, enduring all sorts of hardships, how could you know? Now, capturing the Baojiao County Yamen without a fight, it's not in vain for my seven years of painstaking effort in hiding."
"Seven years in hiding?" Qi Wanshan drew a sharp breath, his face turning pale: "Seven years?"
Seven years, all in preparation for today?
