Knowing that Knife Knife Liu and the others were going to be interrogated in public. The commoners gathered around. How many people were bullied and persecuted by these rascals like Liu Dao and Liu Dao? Looking at them now, this was truly a happy occasion in the Haian City.
Liu Tong was still sitting in the courtroom, but there was also a middle-aged man in a military uniform sitting in the lobby. This person had an imposing appearance and a large stature. The corners of his eyes were filled with a baleful aura. With a single glance, one could tell that he was someone who would kill without batting an eye. This person was Shangguan Lin's uncle, Ji Linhai.
Liu Tong's calves and stomach were trembling under the table. In all of these years, no one from the Chief Officer Yamen had asked about the matters of the Haian City. Furthermore, Ji Linhai had never rejected anything given to him by the Third Prince. He had originally thought that Ji Linhai would follow him the whole way. Yet, he did not expect to give him a fright in the middle of the night. "He was scared to the point that he peed his pants.
So even if he was not convinced in his heart, he still had to follow Ji Linhai's instructions. He did not know what relationship Ji Linhai had with the Li Family, but he was clear that the eldest uncle of the Li Family was an official of the Ministry of Industry. But to be honest, even if it was a Li family official, he wouldn't interfere. Liu Dao himself was nothing. But the gambling houses and brothels gave him a lot of filial piety every year. Furthermore, the wife of Dao Ren Liu was his second wife's cousin. Why is it that I can be considered a brother-in-law to Liu Ren? Even though the position of the Li family's eldest uncle was not small, he was not even worthy of carrying a shoe when compared to his benefactor, Prime Minister Lou. However, no matter how powerful he was, dozens of soldiers with sabers appeared in front of him and punched and kicked his steward. Although he was fine, he had only punched his own morale and face.
Today, Liu Tong had changed from his usual amiable expression when he was secretly carrying the taels of silver with these perverts. "Ye Zichen slapped a log on the lobby. How dare he cause trouble for the people! "Why haven't you brought forth all of your evil deeds from the beginning?!"
Actually, he didn't even need to force a confession. Yesterday, in the Chief Officer Yamen's dungeon, Ji Linhai's subordinates had beaten this group of people into submission. Although no wounds could be seen on his face, it was far more severe than a trauma. Thus, this group of people confessed one by one. He brought up all the wicked things that he had done over the years. Including Saber Liu, there were seven other people who were still in a life and death lawsuit.
Of course, Liu He had already told him about how he framed Wu Zhulian and harassed the other families. At this time, Zhang Ziyi's people were chatting in the crowd. That Wu Zhulian was so pitiful. She was still a daughter of a noble Huang Hua, yet she was slandered for having a child. I heard she had to hang herself for two days. Luckily, she was saved by the kind-hearted people.
There is a saying that it is easy to fend off rumors. But what people love most is gossip. Especially such a big thing as suicide. that inspired people to talk about it. Zhang Ziyi knew this very clearly.
Scram Liu and the others. Someone was ordered, because the crime had been decided. As for the other small sticks, some had committed evil deeds, some had been exiled for three thousand miles, and some had served in the quarry for three years. Of course, there were also some followers who had never done anything stupid that had been caned for thirty years. Later on, Liu Tong even ordered his subordinates to search for the ill-gotten wealth of Liu Dao's group. In addition to the cost of living for their wives and daughters, they were all used to compensate the people they had bullied. Among them, the Wu Clan claimed a thousand taels of silver as compensation.
Hu Ya and Su Xinyu who were watching from below the hall felt great. Hearing these people's whispers, she could finally relax. After leaving the hall, the commoners were all saying that they would definitely go to the execution grounds in three days' time to see these births properly executed. Su Xinyu sighed in her heart. These days, the commoners were quite bold. It was probably because there weren't any entertainment opportunities.
Hu Ya asked softly, "Young Master. Shall we go and see the beheading? "
Su Xinyu frowned, "I'm not going. You are not allowed to go either! It wasn't a lucky thing. It's okay to know they're dead. In case you have nightmares in the middle of the night, it's not worth it to scare yourself. "
Hu Ya thought that it would make sense too. I won't go then. However, the solution this time was too satisfying. This time, Sister Wu will definitely be fine. "
Su Xinyu sighed: "I hope so." However, what was most painful was not the discussions of the people, but the shadow of injury. Whether Wu Zhulian could get out depended on her husband. But for the moment, the Li Family did not give up on Wu Zhulian under these circumstances. It was enough to prove that Fourth Young Master Li was righteous.
When the master and his servant returned home. He saw an unfamiliar man standing in the courtyard. Seeing who was dressed as a servant. Su Xinyu was so smart, she could guess most of it with a glance. Are you a member of the Li Clan? "
The moment the servant saw Su Xinyu, he quickly bowed. "Young Master Su. The servants by the side of Fourth Young Master Li were always happy. He knew that the young master had been kind enough to save the fourth young mistress. My young master has come specially today to express her gratitude. "
Su Xinyu waved her hand, "How can a human not save someone when he is about to die? In truth, there's no need to say 'thank you'. "
Just then, a man walked out from Su Mei's room. From the looks of it, he had just cried. No matter how well one could conceal it, it was impossible to hide it from others. Su Xinyu stepped forward and cupped her hands: "Brother Li."
Fourth Young Master Li bowed to Su Xinyu and said, "This one is Li Baoshan and thanks Master!"
Su Xinyu quickly stepped to the side. Brother Li, don't be so polite. You are older than me and younger than me, how can you worship children? Lady Wu was harmed by a scoundrel, so we only saw injustice. Furthermore, the one who carried Lady Wu back was my family's attendant. I don't dare to accept this favor. "
Li Baoshan's face was filled with gratitude, "Since benefactor says so, then I, Li Baoshan, will address you as benefactor and brother in the future. In the future, the matter of Su Family will be the business of my Li Clan! " To him, what the servants did was naturally what the master meant. So in regards to this favor, Li Baoshan still pressed it onto Su Xinyu's body.
Su Xinyu laughed: "This junior has taken advantage of you. Hu Zi, go make tea. I have something to say to Brother Li. Brother Li, please come in. " After that, he allowed Li Baoshan to enter the hall.
The two of them sat down, and Su Xinyu asked: "Brother Li, have you ever watched today's open trial?"
Li Baoshan sighed, "Someone from my family went to take a look. I took the opportunity to come and see Xiao Lian. It was my inability to protect my loved ones. Fortunately, my younger brother helped. Brother, you must know that these are the people who have obtained General Mansion from my younger brother. This kindness, will never be repaid! "
Su Xinyu waved her hand, "Brother Li, there is no need to be so courteous. Since you and I are going to be called brothers, then we don't need to be so unfamiliar with each other. I still need to stay in this Haian City for a long time in the future, and I still need to rely on Brother Li's care. "
Li Baoshan's expression became serious: "The Li Family will definitely not let down its Su Family in the future!"
Su Xinyu laughed: "I went to see the public trial just now. That Liu Dao had already brought up the matter of slandering Lady Wu. The people all understood that Lady Wu was innocent. But when I checked Miss Wu's pulse, I found out that he had a bad blood vessels due to his Qi stagnating in his chest. With all due respect, Brother Li can treat me as a gentleman. What I have said now is also a warning to Brother Li that I hope to give to you as a doctor. "
Li Baoshan nodded: "Please speak, little brother."
Su Xinyu sighed: "Brother Li, in the future, you need to be more considerate towards Lady Wu. She absolutely could not allow herself to feel that she was being ignored. Although the common people's rumors were easy to dispel, the fear in her heart would not disappear so quickly. Furthermore, he was always in a depressed mood. Not only would it affect his son, it would also endanger his life. But Brother Li need not worry. My grandfather is the best doctor in my hometown. I studied medicine under him at the age of four. Although it has only been six or seven years, there are still ways to treat this kind of heart disease. I will bring you a jar of wine every month. One cup a day cannot be too much. You can't stop drinking until you're pregnant. But the heart medicine is still needed to treat the heart disease. Brother Li's family's attitude is extremely important. "
"Thank you so much, but I will see how you feel in the future." As for Little Lian, little brother can be at ease. My Li Clan has never accepted a concubine or fallen in love with her, and I also have a crush on Little Lian. It definitely will not make her feel any worse. "
That night, Wu Zhulian was sent back to the Wu family on a small palanquin. Before she left, Su Xinyu brought her a small jar of cherry red wine brewed with Spirit Spring. Although she said it was medicinal wine, it was actually just Su Xinyu's excuse. This fruit wine was very sweet and contained spirit energy. Don't say that a patient can cure a disease. Even people who are not sick will be healthy after drinking it.
On the second day, Li Baoshan had personally delivered an invitation, inviting Su Family's family of four, regardless of master or servant, to drink the wedding wine between him and Wu Zhulian. The invitation also stated that all four of them were honored guests.
There were still some days before the marriage between the Li family and the Wu family. But the day of the beheading was just around the corner. To the Haian City, the day of execution could be said to be an empty alley for all citizens. Everyone had gathered by the guillotine outside the city. Although the four of them from Su Family did not go to take a look. But he couldn't stand the thought of all his neighbors. So the atmosphere was still very different.
The four of them had nothing to do today, so Su Xinyu decided to make some delicious food and send it to Zhang Ziyi. She also wanted him to give a portion to Chief Officer Ji. Even though they had their own benefits in this matter. However, in the end, she still asked for it.
While helping to mince the meat, Hu Ya muttered to herself, "Young Master. You said that the cousin young master has such great ability, why would he have to suffer the wrath of his mother? "
Su Xinyu rubbed the dough, thinking back to the time when she saw Wen Ling vomiting blood while he was still unconscious. "In the past, I didn't think much of it, but now that I think about it, there is a lingering fear." Aren't there a lot of shady things in the house? It was just a small house, so a few rooms were all very common. Furthermore, it is precisely because Ling Ge is powerful that his stepmother would be more afraid of him. "
Hu Ya was speechless, "Then just looking at her own son won't do. He would be able to do it. "Why are you doing this?"
Su Xinyu agreed with him on this point. That's right. Thus, this kind of person is definitely useless. "
Hu Ya giggled: "I think our cousin young master is very good. Young Master, you said that cousin young master can decide for himself in the future. Would he come to propose marriage? "Your cousins are childhood sweethearts …"
Su Xinyu immediately glared at her. "Stop with the nonsense! We are not relatives in the first place! "
Hu Ya was not the least bit afraid. Instead, she laughed even more wantonly. Eh. It would be even better if it wasn't. It seems that cousin young master is interested in you since she is helping you like this. And where in the world is there a better woman than you? Beautiful, capable and profitable, and able to help him. Having a wife like you is the fortune that he has cultivated for three lifetimes. "
Su Xinyu felt that she must have been angered to the point of blushing. If you keep spouting nonsense, watch how I'll deal with you! "
At the door, Su Wenlan heard the master and servant inside making noise. She sighed silently. I just hope it's fate, not grievance …
