It was nearly dusk, and the howling north wind swept by, adding a bit of depression to the dilapidated courtyard. www.biquge.info One of Li Kuan's legs was broken, and a slender knife mark was faintly visible on his neck, which was left by Shen Lian's embroidered spring knife. Li Kuan was still sitting on the cold ground, and from Shen Lian leading Qin Li and the others into the backyard, he realized that something was wrong. No matter how clever he is, he can't explain the magnificent houses beneath the earth, let alone the mountains of treasure.

The only thing he could do now was to hold his four-year-old grandson, to be exact, his son tightly in his arms, caressing his only remaining ear with great cherishment, and then looking at Qin Li pitifully, begging Qin Li to spare the four-year-old child's life. Although one of the child's ears was cut off by Shen Lian, the blood was still flowing slowly.

The boy seemed to be truly aware of the danger, and he endured the great pain in his ear, and looked at the group of people in front of him in horror, and did not dare to cry anymore.

This situation is very sad.

If you know now, why bother in the first place?

He remembered that he used to be a down-and-out lifter, in order to be able to read, he also studied the ancients' head hanging beams, taper piercing stocks, and put a lot of effort into making a name for himself. Once upon a time, he also wanted to be a good official dedicated to the people, but under the attack of the sugar-coated cannonballs of the landlords and powerful people in Suning County, especially the gold and silver treasures, he completely forgot his original intention and became a crazy wealth collector, and no longer cared about the life and death of the people. In his mind, only a woman who has lived a good life and enjoyed all kinds of glory and wealth and all kinds of beauty is worthy of this life.

Only now do I know that madness must be punished in the end. Qin Li is his nemesis and his gravedigger. At this time, he almost didn't hate Qin Li anymore, he realized in a trance that no matter how much treasure he had, no matter how luxurious his residence was, it was useless before he died, it couldn't save his life, and it was something that he didn't bring with him in life or with him in death.

He even thought that it was better to be an honest, hardworking and hard-working citizen. But now it's too late, and it's too late to regret it. This world may be the most cruel thing for people, and there is no turning back after walking the road.

"Grandpa, are we going to die?" The little boy finally couldn't help it, and raised his head and asked him softly.

He couldn't answer, he only stared at Qin Li, staring at the Wind and Fire Dragon Stick in Qin Li's hand.

"Lord Qin, you have seen all my treasures, you have seen all my women, I have exchanged all my treasures and women for my life and that of my grandson. It's always okay, I won't do it in the county, just let me kowtow to every person in Suning County, and I'm willing."

The voice was poignant and pitiful.

"My lord, my lord must not let this beast go, he said one thing and one thing, and his conscience let the dog eat it. A man like him should be cut with a thousand cuts. I remember vividly that it was still a poor family in Pangjiazhuang. They had no food, no money, but the brute insisted that they hand over five taels of silver.

The reason is that he is crazy and falls in love with someone's daughter-in-law.

He likes beautiful women. ”

It was the woman in her forties, Li, who spoke, and his son Li Xi.

Boom! His main house and his own son have done this to him, what kind of sin he must have committed?

His sins were so great that they were unforgivable. This is the conclusion reached by everyone present.

Qin Li secretly thought, hehe! It's a great idea to trade your treasure and your woman for your life! But don't you even think of your situation now? Is there still room for you to bargain here? I really don't know the depths of things.

The corners of Qin Li's mouth raised slightly, revealing a cold smile, and said, "Li Kuan, you are a man, you must have read a lot of books, you must know how the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty treated those who corrupted and perverted the law, right?"

Officials who are greedy for sixty taels of silver are going to lose their heads, and you have embezzled so much that you are innocent of death.

Hehe! Since you want to die, I just let you die cruelly. The official also wants to play the trick of peeling the daylily. ”

OMG! What a cruel torture to peel the daylily? I had only heard of it before, and at this time, Da Ming had no such punishment for a long time, but Qin Li actually wanted to use such torture on me.

He is a cool official, a unique cool official in the Ming Dynasty.

Li Kuan listened to Qin Li's words, looked at Qin Li's indifferent face, and was so frightened that he almost fainted. However, he still stubbornly held on, he knew that he would not escape death, but no matter what, he wanted to save his grandson's life! With this grandson, maybe in a few years he will be able to avenge himself.

"Lord Qin, I deserve to be tortured like that, but the child is not guilty, please let my grandchild go, he is only four years old!" Li Kuansheng burst into tears and cried and begged.

Qin Li was noncommittal.

Speaking of which, Qin Li was also sad and a little unbearable when he saw the scene in front of him. However, Qin Li still stood strong. He is the prefect of Hejian, and hundreds of thousands of people in Hejian need to govern by themselves, and if you want to govern Hejian well and let everyone live a good life, you must be ruthless. can't be soft-hearted, if you are soft-hearted to Li Kuan today, there may be a lot of Li Kuan who will stand up in a few days. To kill, we must make an example to stop this kind of corruption.

Li Kuan, did you think of their suffering when you were greedy for ink and silver, ate human flesh, oppressed the people, and ruined the women of good families? You didn't, since you did it, then let you have evil retribution.

Qin Li turned back to Dahu and the other special forces and said, "Brothers, it's been a long time to follow me Qin Li to fight and kill, but this ability to peel daylilies has not been practiced, and the brothers started to learn from Li Kuan, a brute!" ”

Qin Li said this, which was tantamount to sentencing Li Kuan to death.

It is said that although Dahu and the others have fought countless battles and killed many people, they have never seen such cruel torture. They also realized that Boss Qin was ruthless in doing this, but if they thought about it carefully, could they be ruthless? To people like Li Kuan, it is necessary to use such torture, otherwise how can he govern Hejian well. Today's ruthlessness is so that tomorrow's officials can fulfill their duties and do their official duties conscientiously, so that the people in Hejian can live a life of abundant food and clothing as soon as possible.

The special forces pulled up Li Kuan without hesitation, but Li Kuan was still holding the boy's little hand tightly, and kept pleading with Qin Li.

"Lord Qin, I beg you, let my grandson go, he is still young, all this has nothing to do with him! Jinzhong, don't you hurry up and kowtow to the adult, and beg the adult to spare his life! ”

Just this sound, Qin Li was stunned. Jinzhong, the little boy's surname is Li, naturally Li Jinzhong.

Who is Lee Jin-chung? Naturally, it's Wei Zhongxian. (To be continued.) )
