However, the last bit of luck in Wu Futao's heart was completely shattered when he saw the handwriting on the paper.

Because it was really as Xiao Chumo said just now, his crime was described clearly, and there was not even a chance for him to quibble!

"Impossible, impossible!"

The look on his face finally became completely flustered, and he screamed in disbelief as he reached for the remaining papers on the ground, trying to see the slightest flaw. However, in the end, there is only something that accuses him of crime, at most the content is different.

"You people, I see that you are dissatisfied with your officials on weekdays. At this time, I deliberately gathered here again, and you must have joined forces to frame me! ”

was extremely flustered, but Wu Futao also knew that those things were indeed done by himself one by one. He didn't dare to speak disrespectfully to Xiao Chumo, who was sitting upright, so he scolded directly at the people who were guarding outside the mansion.

I don't know if he tried to threaten them to change their minds on the fly, to overturn their testimony, or if he actually broke the jar.

It's just that no matter which one he thinks in his heart, Xiao Chumo is still sitting on it at this moment! In the eyes of the people, the prestige of the loyal and brave general is obviously many times higher than that of his unpopular little county commander. How could anyone continue to be threatened by him?

Before the people outside could refute his words, Xiao Chumo didn't want to let him talk nonsense anymore.

Anyway, those crimes are all said by the people themselves, and they are regarded as human witnesses; As for the latter charge of embezzlement and bribery, the astonishing amount of silver found in the treasury of this Wu County Order is the best evidence.

Not to mention that he already has the right to deal with these things, now that there are all the human and material evidence, he is not afraid of being caught and gossiping.

"Someone! Wu Futao has committed so many crimes, including dozens of lives, which is simply unforgivable! ”

Xiao Chumo didn't pay attention to the nonsense in his mouth, and suddenly shouted loudly and called out the soldiers on both sides.

Looking at his serious and cold expression, Wu Futao instantly fell to the ground in despair, knowing in his heart that he was about to announce the verdict against himself.

It's just that when life and death are at stake, his fat body with two pairs of shackles sits in the middle of a pile of paper, looking extremely embarrassed. In the eyes of others, I feel very relieved.

And Xiao Chumo's words after that did indeed announce the final fate of Wu Futao.

"This general has the profession of protecting the family and defending the country, and the empress is deeply reused, so she naturally has to share the worries of the monarch. Now that the evidence in this case is conclusive, I will make the decision to remove Wu Futao from the post of county commander, two-thirds of the property of the Wu Mansion will be confiscated, and Wu Futao himself will be beheaded at three o'clock tomorrow afternoon! ”

"Wow-"

As soon as Xiao Chumo's words came out, the people who heard it immediately boiled, and all kinds of voices came out.

It's just that none of them accuse the former of being punished too severely, but basically all of them are words like "evil has evil retribution". What's more, someone in the family was seriously injured or directly killed by this Wu Futao, and they actually cried with joy, as if they had taken revenge.

After hearing this, the soldiers who had already been waiting on the side quickly followed Xiao Chumo's words and took Wu Futao, who was sitting on the ground, back to the dungeon and continued to detain him.

If you want to talk about it, although Xiao Chumo's punishment cost Wu Futao's life, he is actually very kind. It stands to reason that a crime as serious as the latter will definitely affect Dan's family.

However, on the information obtained by Xiao Chumo, there are no other men in the Wu Mansion, Wu Futao has an old lady in her seventies on the top, and a son and a daughter are pregnant below, all of whom are very young. And among the dozen or so women in his backyard, the one who really volunteered to enter the house was actually his wife and two-room concubine.

Considering various factors, Xiao Chumo finally did not attribute Wu Futao's crime to his family, but only replaced it with two-thirds of the property in his mansion.

Now Wu Futao has been suppressed and awaiting execution, and the people have dispersed, anxious to inform their relatives and friends of the good news. The case is completely settled.

In the back hall of the palace, everyone is sitting together drinking tea and resting. Knowing that Xiao Chumo and his wife were about to leave in a hurry after punishing Wu Futao and settling down in the city, Qiu Chijin and Liu Wu were naturally a little reluctant.

No matter how noble their status is, after all, they are also people who have been together for so many days and have experienced several things, how can they only regard each other as passers-by who meet in Pingshui?

"Sister Panxi, can't you stay a few more days?"

Liu Wu sat next to Yu Panxi, stretched out her hand and pulled her sleeve and couldn't help shaking, her sticky appearance was really likable.

It was not easy to meet someone whose temperament and behavior matched his eyes, and Yu Panxi's heart was naturally very reluctant.

But although she brought a heart to play in the mountains and rivers, she had important things to do after all. And there has been a lot of delay along the way before, how can you really agree to the former's prayer?

So he raised his hand and gently pinched Liu Fu's cheek, and said softly: "Su'er, there is no banquet in the world, Chu Mo and I still have important things to do, and we really can't stay here for a long time." Since we are so fateful, we will definitely meet again soon. ”

"Okay...... That sister Panxi must remember to come back to see me! ”

The latter was easily coaxed by Yu Panxi's words, although he was still reluctant, he nodded obediently.

After calming her down, Yu Panxi turned around and looked at Qiu Chijin, who was chatting with Xiao Chumo.

"Young Master Qiu, now that Wu Futao has confessed, Chu Mo will soon send someone to punish the Wang family who also committed crimes. The two biggest hazards in the city are gone, what are you going to do in the future? ”

The Wang family must be punished, otherwise I am afraid that even if there is one less Wu County Order, they will just have one less to rely on. Even without the protection of this county order, they can still run rampant in the city.

It's just that what worries Yu Panxi more now is Liu Wu and Qiu Chijin's thoughts. Ji'an Hall had been completely smashed by the people sent by the king Qian Mu long ago, and if it was to be rebuilt, I was afraid that it would cost no less money and energy.

Hearing her ask this question, Qiu Chijin truthfully said his thoughts.

"Su'er and I grew up in Ji'an Hall, and for us, it is our home. So after some private discussion, we decided not to go anywhere, but to stay and renovate the Ji'an Hall. ”
