Jiang Yi could not manage them. He had originally only prepared meals for himself and Natasha, and there was nothing for them.
Even Prince Matthew and Grand Lord Barry were added later.
Paul, standing by, saw that Prince Matthew did not punish Jiang Yi. Instead, he ate with Jiang Yi and they chatted happily.
Paul began to grow anxious.
“Prince Matthew, when will you give me justice?”
“Jiang Yi is too despicable. He doesn't respect you at all. If you don't deal with him, I'm afraid he will become more and more lawless!”
Paul could not help but say to Prince Matthew.
“I almost forgot the main business!”
Prince Matthew put down his rice bowl and then asked Jiang Yi, “I ask you, did you punish the previous sub-lord Paul to guard the gate, not give him food, and withhold his salary?”
“Yes, that's right!”
Jiang Yi admitted directly.
Upon hearing this, Prince Matthew’s face immediately fell.
“Jiang Yi, you are too audacious. Are you not shaming me?”
“I appointed you as a sub-lord, but what did you do? As soon as you became a sub-lord, you did such things. Now everyone is probably laughing at me, saying I have no vision and cannot judge people correctly!”
“I won’t let you off today!”
Prince Matthew stared at Jiang Yi and said.
In fact, this was not a big deal. Prince Matthew just wanted to use this opportunity to give Jiang Yi a warning, to curb Jiang Yi’s arrogance. Only by scaring Jiang Yi to the point of timidity would he honestly treat him in the future.
Paul was gloating as he stared at Jiang Yi, as if saying, “You’re dead, kid. Even if God himself came, he couldn't save you.”
Paul had hated Jiang Yi to the bone long ago. Seeing Jiang Yi about to suffer now, he was extremely smug.
Jiang Yi calmly put down his chopsticks.
“Prince Matthew, how do you plan to deal with me? Will you dismiss me as sub-lord, or do you want to execute me?”
Jiang Yi asked Prince Matthew.
Seeing that Jiang Yi showed no fear on his face, Prince Matthew frowned.
“Of course, I will execute you!”
Prince Matthew said in a deep voice.
“To tell you the truth! Actually, my illness can be cured by more than just you. I received news yesterday that a famous doctor from Mei Country has found a way to cure me. You are dispensable to me now. Killing you would be no harm!”
Jiang Yi was stunned when he heard this.
As for Grand Lord Barry, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, thinking that Jiang Yi was doomed this time!
Grand Lord Barry now deeply regretted cooperating with Jiang Yi. He gained no benefits, but instead, he was about to be implicated.
Jiang Yi’s expression was calm, but he could not help but smile inwardly.
Apart from himself, no one else could cure Prince Matthew’s illness.
Jiang Yi did not believe that Prince Matthew could find a doctor to cure him.
Soon, Jiang Yi understood. Prince Matthew was lying to him to intimidate him.
This old fox was very smart.
However, Prince Matthew’s tactic was useless against Jiang Yi.
Prince Matthew’s gaze was fixed on Jiang Yi. He had originally thought that Jiang Yi would kneel and beg for mercy.
To his surprise, Jiang Yi remained composed, showing no sign of panic, fear, or dread.
This left Prince Matthew unsure of what to do!
“Jiang Yi, do you have anything else to say?”
Prince Matthew asked Jiang Yi.
“Prince Matthew, I have nothing to say. You are a prince. If you want me to die, how dare I disobey? I have eaten and drunk my fill. Send me on my way!”
Jiang Yi said.
These words left Prince Matthew at a loss for what to do!
Prince Matthew had no intention of executing Jiang Yi. If Jiang Yi died, no one would be there to treat him.
Prince Matthew wanted to spare Jiang Yi, but the words had already been spoken, and he could not take them back in front of everyone.
If he did that, wouldn't he be making a fool of himself?
Prince Matthew was now in a difficult position.
“Prince Matthew, you cannot execute my teacher!”
Natasha quickly said.
“Why?”
Prince Matthew asked.
“Paul is talking nonsense. He is framing my teacher!”
“Since my teacher became a sub-lord, Paul has always been unconvinced and deliberately incited people to make trouble. My teacher had no choice but to let him guard the gate, hoping he would calm down and work properly!”
“As for not giving him food and withholding his salary, I did those things. They have nothing to do with my teacher! I hope Prince Matthew can spare my teacher.”
Natasha said.
“So that’s how it is! It seems this is a misunderstanding!”
Prince Matthew said.
Natasha pleading for Jiang Yi gave Prince Matthew an out, so Prince Matthew naturally had to seize this opportunity.
“You good-for-nothing Paul, how dare you stir up trouble without reason? You even deceived me. I hate people like you the most!”
Prince Matthew stared at Paul and said, “If I don’t execute you today, the public anger will not be appeased!”
Paul’s legs went weak, and he directly knelt on the ground in fear.
Just moments ago, Paul was smug. Now, only despair remained on his face!
He had originally thought that he could use this opportunity to bring down Jiang Yi. As a result, not only did he fail to bring down Jiang Yi, but he also lost his own life.
“Prince Matthew, I am not convinced!”
Paul wanted to struggle for survival.
“Why are you not convinced?”
Prince Matthew asked.
“Even if those few incidents were not Jiang Yi’s fault, Jiang Yi executed a leader on his first day as sub-lord. This is known to everyone, and many people were present at the time!”
Paul quickly said.
When Prince Matthew heard this, his gaze turned to Jiang Yi, and he asked, “How do you explain this?”
“Prince Matthew, I did execute someone!”
“However, this was due to a reason. At that time, Paul incited all the staff and leaders of the sub-lord’s mansion to make trouble, trying to oust me.”
“They were clearly rebelling. To deter everyone, I tearfully executed that person!”
Jiang Yi said.
“So that’s how it is!”
After Prince Matthew finished speaking, his sharp gaze fell on Paul.
“Paul, you are simply too lawless! Who gave you the courage to do such a thing? This is clearly rebellion.”
“What’s more infuriating is that you actually lied to me and played me like a fool. People like you must be executed immediately!”
Paul collapsed to the ground again.
Now Paul had no trump cards left!
He did not know that ever since he asked Prince Matthew to uphold justice for him, no matter what he did, it was a dead end.
This was because Prince Matthew would not kill Jiang Yi now.
Jiang Yi would not die, so Paul had to die!
Paul was trying to be clever, but it could also be said that he was digging his own grave. If he had been honest, he would not have lost his life for nothing.
Even now, Paul could not understand why things had turned out this way!
