How could this have happened...
The protestors directly killed a hereditary Earl?
Before Yang Ming watched the on-site video that Lyu obtained, his head was full of questions.
Of course, he knew that protests would inevitably incorporate elements of violence, and in some areas, thousands had been injured and arrested in severe incidents.
But these conflicts generally occurred between radical elements of the protestors and local security forces.
Those Great Nobles would either dispatch a large number of security personnel to protect their estates or outright have their private guards to intimidate the protestors; even those weaker Great Nobles would choose to hide in secluded residences at the outset of the protests.
Was this hereditary Earl killed by the protestors someone who had fallen from grace and held only an empty title?
The truth was quite the opposite.
Along with the crime video sent to Yang Ming was detailed information about the deceased.
