Chapter 225: Punishment
Everything in front of him happened too fast, no one expected Wang Ning's reaction to be so intense, those refugees who were not dressed brightly, but enough to keep warm for the winter, all looked at him in horror, the one who spoke before had shrunk back for a long distance at this time, hiding in the crowd.
In fact, Wang Ning is very kind on weekdays, giving them the land to plant, and helping them pay rent, and he can also recognize the people in the village, big and small, these things are naturally very impactful in the eyes of the villagers. Therefore, they were accustomed to Wang Ning's appearance, and when they saw such a murderous side at first glance, they were shocked and a trace of fear rose.
After a while, Brother Sun had already chased after him, and when he saw the corpse on the ground, his heart sank, and he hurried over, knowing that the person on the ground was already dead and couldn't die anymore, he still rushed over, squatted down and checked it.
When the refugees saw Sun Heng, their faces suddenly became a little more happy, and several of them glanced at each other and walked towards Sun Heng.
knelt in front of him at the moment: "My lord, you have to call the shots for the little ones, he has no humanity, Xiao Lin just said a few words to him, and he was beaten to death...... Your Excellency, you are in charge of us. ”
Wang Ning looked at the scene in front of him and sneered, these people who stood up at this time could basically know that they were the leaders.
Wang Ning walked over, and Sun Heng was still trying to comfort these people. Seeing Wang Ning, several kneeling people shrank behind Sun Heng.
Sun Heng took the lead, stopped Wang Ning, and said, "Brother Wang, even if you have any anger, you can't kill anyone."
Wang Ning said: "How much is his life worth?" I'm going to lose, not only him, but these people, if you give me a number, I will take their lives......"
Hearing this, everyone said again and looked at him in horror.
Sun Heng said angrily: "How can human life be measured by money and food."
"Can't you?" Wang Ning sneered, pursed his lips and glanced around: "Then let's ask them today if they can measure it."
After a pause, Wang Ning said: "These people are all from the north, I dare to say that they must have dragged their families when they came, but right now, how many of them still have family members with them?"
Many people lowered their heads and didn't dare to look at Wang Ning anymore.
Wang Ning said again: "These people can go to the south alive, how can they not have a few lives in their hands......" He said and looked at Sun Heng, who was full of grief and anger next to him, and asked: "Do you still remember, when these people first arrived in Jiangning, what were they like?"
"Among them, there are basically no children and old people...... Wang Ning's eyes flashed slightly, and he sneered: "Do you know why?"
Sun Heng said: "Not only are there not many children, but there are also very few old people." Sun Heng understood what Wang Ning was going to say, and because of this, he didn't want Wang Ning to continue, it was better not to say something and just take care of it.
He didn't know what kind of waves it would cause once it was announced to the world.
But Wang Ning didn't mean to shut up, he didn't even want to say anything to Sun Heng anymore, he snorted, looked at the refugees whose expressions had obviously changed, and slowly spoke: "Old people and children, of course they can't stand this long journey, and it's normal to die on the road."
The refugees on the opposite side all looked over, their faces looked a little more relaxed, Wang Ning saw it in his eyes, still smiling for unknown reasons, and then, his eyes froze, and then he said: "It's just that these people are only a part of them after all." He sighed and said abruptly, "Yi Zi eats, everyone must have heard of it." ”
Having said this, Sun Heng shook his head, his face was as unbearable as possible, he had the heart to say something, but he didn't know how to speak, and in the crowd opposite, there were already women crying.
Wang Ning has always recognized the pitiful experience of these people under the general trend, so he will help Sun Heng do something, even if these people beat him before, he didn't have a seizure, but now it's different, he is very angry.
First, because his house was burned to slag, and because Shen Jing was beaten, the most important thing was the thoughts of these people, they thought that he had to help them, give them food, and dress them......
But he's not the kind of person who "sends the Buddha to the West", he's never been, he can sympathize with those people, he can do something for that sympathy, he can give something, but he can also pretend to turn a blind eye.
What does it matter to him whether these people live or die?
Many people who accept help from others don't seem to realize something, they really take other people's help for granted, and by the way, their own situation is used as a bargaining chip to get this help.
Wang Ning is not a good person, never has been.
He's killed people, maybe a few more.
Sun Heng came over at this time, trying to calm Wang Ning's mood, Wang Ning pushed him away, and said: "You are an official, I don't dare to do anything to you, but these people, these Diao people, they have to pay the price for the stupid things they have done, and if they can't pay it back, they will pay for it with their lives......"
Sun Heng roared and reprimanded angrily: "Wang Ning, that's enough, I will deal with these things from the court, if you continue to mess around, don't force me to take you to prison for questioning?"
Sun Heng's face also turned pale, and he looked at Wang Ning without suspicion, and his body had already stopped in front of Wang Ning.
Wang Ning sneered: "Sun Heng, you have a sick brain, right?" It's all at this time, you are still protecting these people, haven't you seen the letter handed to your Jiangpu County Ya desk in the past few days......"
Wang Ning raised his hand and pointed at the people behind him, "These are the people, how many things they have done in Jiangpu, is it because they have suffered in this disaster, you are biased against them with your conscience?" ”
"......" Sun Heng was speechless, Wang Ning was telling the truth, the current Jiangpu was a mess.
Wang Ning saw that Sun Heng didn't reply, and he didn't plan to talk to him anymore, but the few people who were hiding behind Sun Heng saw that something was wrong and had already run away, just a few words, it was naturally difficult to go far.
Wang Ning said to Sun Heng: "Do you want to get out of the way?"
Sun Heng shook his head: "They are at fault, they have their own court laws and sanctions, you are abusing lynching."
Wang Ning said with a smile: "I suspect that Lord Sun abused his personal feelings and disregarded the laws of the imperial court."
Sun Heng said: "I promise to give you an explanation."
Wang Ning pushed Sun Heng away: "Get out of the way."
"Wang Ning, you just want to go to prison so much? And then come to an autumn queen to ask the cut? Don't forget, you've just gotten married......"
Wang Ning turned his head: "Don't you say that I forgot about this stubble, if it were you, you were approached by such a group of Diao people when you got married, what would you do?"
