After finishing, Pei Shu’er spoke to those people.
"Shu’er is small in strength, but it’s truly not suitable for all of you to use force. I hope these ten strokes can return justice to everyone."
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the other exiles beca strange.
The image of Pei Shu’er fiercely beating those five exiles was vivid in their minds, such skin and flesh torn, and she called it small strength?
However, upon hearing this, the Fifteenth Prince looked at Doctor Liu and his fearful expression towards Pei Shu’er, which filled him with so disdain.
"Enough, it’s settled. You, a grown man, are afraid of a weak woman?"
Pei Shu’er took the military baton from the soldier’s hand, drank a sip of Spiritual Spring Water, and then swung it at Doctor Liu.
Her strength was soft, just like the feeling she gave off.
A fragile reed swaying in the wind.
"Ah!"
Doctor Liu raised his head due to the hit, his cheeks flushed red, his face extrely pained.
He knew Pei Shu’er had so strength, but he never expected her strength to be this great!
The Fifteenth Prince was also taken aback, wondering why Doctor Liu reacted so strongly.
He looked again at Pei Shu’er’s slender arms and legs.
She really doesn’t seem like soone skilled in martial arts.
And even the way she walks?
Could it be innate abnormal strength?
But her physique doesn’t fit; people with innate abnormal strength are usually very burly, even won boasting a size akin to n.
Pei Shu’er is truly peculiar like this.
No, Doctor Liu must be putting on an act.
But this act has gone too far, even he felt embarrassed for Doctor Liu.
Pei Shu’er struck Doctor Liu five tis, after which Doctor Liu couldn’t endure and fainted.
Pei Shu’er didn’t soften her heart; this person almost wanted her life earlier!
Not only did she not relent, but Pei Shu’er drank several more gulps of Spiritual Spring Water, making her strength even greater.
By the seventh hit, Pei Shu’er’s military baton broke into two pieces.
The soldiers looked at the state of the baton, shivering involuntarily.
The Fifteenth Prince finally understood that Pei Shu’er indeed possessed great strength.
Pei Shu’er softly smiled at another soldier.
"Can I borrow your military baton?"
The man shivered, quickly handing Pei Shu’er one.
Pei Shu’er smiled as she struck Doctor Liu heavily again, and the baton broke once more.
Even after being knocked unconscious, Doctor Liu twitched as he regained consciousness.
General Zhao was sowhat worried, fearing that Pei Shu’er might disable Doctor Liu.
However, twenty military strokes an twenty military strokes, and there’s no reason to stop the punishnt.
The five people who were beaten yesterday now sowhat appreciated Pei Shu’er.
Apparently, she held back yesterday; otherwise, they might have been whipped to death.
After switching to three different batons, these ten strokes were finally completed.
Other than her hands being red, Pei Shu’er’s face still held a gentle expression, which made people naturally want to approach.
But most people, upon seeing Pei Shu’er’s approach, automatically parted to clear a path.
The Fifteenth Prince harshly declared, "If you whip him to death, I will surely demand your life."
Pei Shu’er looked at this Fifteenth Prince and shook her head, "Rest assured, he won’t die."
If the Fifteenth Prince dies, Doctor Liu surely won’t.
After all, Doctor Liu shows up later on.
Of course, he appears as a follower of the female protagonist.
Those who were poisoned were also treated properly.
Afterward, they had to drink so dicines daily to restore their bodies; otherwise, it would be hard to recover their foundation.
As for Liu Dahong, he was already captured by the governnt officer.
This person was to be executed, which settled Pei Shu’er’s heart.
If the mastermind were spared, she truly couldn’t reconcile with it.
Being escorted away, Liu Dahong looked at Pei Shu’er with eyes full of hatred.
Pei Shu’er didn’t care about the hatred of a dying man, and she organized the exiles to start working orderly.
With Doctor Liu unconscious, there’s no one to disrupt things.
Additionally, Commander Qian was demoted, and usually, no one visits this place often, so the construction progressed quickly.
Pei Shu’er was genuinely tired; she had to supervise despite feeling dizzy, which was really exhausting, she secretly entered the space to recover.
Then she continued to supervise.
Tang Zan always ca to find her.
Pei Shu’er alleviated her pain when she was with him, and Tang Zan’s effect was different from the space.
Tang Zan seed to relieve the pain fundantally.
As long as she stayed by Tang Zan, she wouldn’t feel pain, but if she left for so ti, it would hurt as it did before.
Whereas the space could only numb the pain.
But the pain accumulated, getting worse each ti.
Furthermore, at night while others slept, she still had to study books on architecture.
She carefully pondered over the books related to constructing city walls and the unexpected situations and handling thods that might occur, striving not to make mistakes.
After finishing studying those books, Pei Shu’er also brought out the knowledge in her mind whenever supervising, trying to piece things together.
In the blink of an eye, the first watchtower was being constructed following the knowledge from the books.
She thought the thod of construction was quite common.
But Tang Peiyi and Tang Tuo were both shocked watching Pei Shu’er.
"Your thod is really excellent, but we’re curious where you learned it from."
Pei Shu’er replied evasively, "I saw soone using it in the Capital."
Perhaps it was because this thod was too innovative, the two persisted in questioning Pei Shu’er for quite a while until they grasped the principle and left satisfied.
Lately, Pei Shu’er frequently noticed Dazi near the military camp, probing the construction of Gulan Military Camp.
Pei Shu’er realized this matter couldn’t wait, but the exiles were building too arduously, and, truthfully, they were already at maximum efficiency.
To build well, they’d still need to wait a long while.
Thus Pei Shu’er made a petition to General Zhao, hoping to involve soldiers in the construction of the city wall, naturally encountering strong opposition.
Everyone felt constructing city walls was the task of the exiles and were unwilling to participate.
Soon, the Dazi began harassing the construction of the walls, pounding them with catapults.
The earthen walls of Gulan Military Camp crumbled in a massive area, causing tens of casualties.
While Pei Shu’er supervised the construction, only the spots where cent hadn’t fully dried were hit, breaking one place.
Soldiers and commanders observed the contrast between the earthen and blue-brick walls.
Everyone began to feel relieved that they were constructing blue-brick and stone-slab walls.
Otherwise, construction wouldn’t withstand several rounds from the catapults.
Seizing the opportunity, Pei Shu’er submitted another petition.
She did not embellish with flowery words or use flashy rhetoric.
However, she employed so petitioning skills, firstly praising the resilience of Gulan Military Camp.
Then she analyzed the frontier’s environnt and ultimately expressed the necessity and urgency of accelerating the construction of the camps.
Lastly, she proposed once more the conscription of soldiers to build the walls.
Constructing walls isn’t a simple task; encouraged by Commander Qian and Doctor Liu among others, the soldiers were naturally very unwilling.
Yinxing was furious.
"These people truly don’t know what’s good for them; we’re building walls for them, yet they refuse so cleanly."
Pei Shu’er laughed, "It’s no problem; next ti, they might be the ones petitioning to participate."
