Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Upon hearing this, everyone had varying expressions on their faces.

Pang Tang, who had been silent all along, stepped forward, cupped his hands toward Yang Zhenshan, and said, "Since General Yang has already submitted a petition, let us wait for His Majesty’s judgment. I only hope that General Yang does not wield his blade at will within the city!"

Yang Zhenshan nodded slightly, "Mr. Pang, rest assured, I will not kill the innocent recklessly. As for the soldiers behind me, please be assured, my colleagues, they are all well-trained soldiers!"

Pang Tang’s worry was that Yang Zhenshan’s mass killing in the city would incite turmoil. In such a case, it didn’t matter whether it involved the Salt Transport Department or not; he couldn’t escape responsibility.

Now, hearing Yang Zhenshan’s assurance, Pang Tang nodded and cupped his hands again, "I am busy with official duties, I must take my leave now!"

With that, he turned and left.

Yang Zhenshan also returned the gesture.

Clearly, this matter should have nothing to do with Pang Tang; otherwise, he wouldn’t have left so promptly.

Together with Pang Tang, a group of officials from the Governor’s Office and the Magistrate’s government office also left.

Of course, whether these people were involved remained to be seen; anyway, they wouldn’t show themselves now.
