Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Song Jianxing didn’t expect that this woman, who had suddenly appeared, to expose all his dirty plans with just a few words.
He wanted to struggle and curse, but Constable Wang discovered his plans first. He grabbed something that looked like a rag and stuffed it into Song Jianxing’s mouth. Then, he turned around and instructed his subordinates, “Take him away!”
Song Jianxing struggled with all his might, like a trapped beast on the verge of death. The surrounding constables who came to escort him couldn’t hold him down for a moment and he actually broke free.
Song Jianxing felt that he was doomed this time, but he didn’t feel that all of this was his fault. Instead, he blamed everything on Lin Suisui, who had revealed the truth to the public. Therefore, he rushed in the direction Lin Suisui was standing in and had the vicious intention of perishing with her.
Constable Wang was shocked and pounced forward to stop him. However, he was really a little far from Lin Suisui. No matter how much he wanted to help, he couldn’t. Updated from novelbIn.(c)om
Su Le blocked in front of Lin Suisui in time, but someone was faster than him. With a whoosh, an arrow pierced through Song Jianxing’s left arm and nailed him to the wall behind him.
Lu Ze walked in from outside the courtyard with a longbow in hand.
He glanced at Song Jianxing, who was nailed to the wall and bleeding profusely. Then, he turned to look at Constable Wang, who was still standing at the side in a daze. He instructed indifferently, “Bring this person back and prosecute him immediately. With such a serious crime, there’s no need to delay anymore. Just sentence him immediately!”
Constable Wang knew Lu Ze’s identity, so how could he dare to say no? He quickly lowered his head and agreed. Then, he immediately arranged for someone to inform the county governor.
After knowing that this case was about to be heard in the county governor’s office, a group of commoners who were waiting to watch the drama didn’t delay any longer. They rushed to find a good seat outside the county office to wait for the follow-up.
After everyone dispersed, Lu Ze turned around and looked at Lin Suisui worriedly. “Are you alright?”
At that time, Eldest Madam Fang would be beheaded. Who would take care of this child?
After the Fang family found out that their daughter had made such a huge mistake, they didn’t even show their faces. Mr. Fang even said to the outside that they would pretend that they had never given birth to this daughter!
Therefore, sending this child to the Fang family was impossible.
The only thing left was the Song family where the child’s father, Song Jianxing, was from. However, Song Jianxing and Eldest Madam Fang colluded. Now that Song Jianxing had committed the felony of killing his mother, how could he have the ability to take care of this child?
“Please keep this child!” Just as County Governor Tang was thinking about how to resolve the matter, Song Jianxing, who had been pressed down in the hall, suddenly turned around and begged Song Zhou, who was standing at the side, “1-1 know it’s my fault. I’ve let you down, but this child is innocent! Please leave a descendant for the Song family on account of us being husband and wife!
I’ll definitely repay you in my next life!”
Song Zhou turned around and met Song Jianxing’s pleading gaze as she asked coldly, “Then, what if this child is also a girl?”
“I asked the master to calculate it. This child must be a boy!” Song Jianxing froze for a moment before he refuted Song Zhou’s hypothesis with certainty. He had risked his life and ended up like this because of this son!
Therefore, it was absolutely impossible for him to admit that this child might be a girl!
“What if you’re wrong? Don’t forget, when 1 was pregnant with the second child, the master said that it was a son. Later on, when I was pregnant with the third child, the master even patted his chest as he promised, but what happened in the end?”
Song Zhou looked at Song Jianxing with a hint of pity and mockery in her eyes and suddenly felt that she had a long nightmare. Now, she was finally going to wake up.
“Song Jianxing, wake up. Let’s not talk about whether this child is a boy or a girl. We don’t even know if he’s your son!
“Even if it’s your child, his parents plotted to take the lives of me and my three daughters.. Why should I raise my enemy’s child?”
