Chapter 445: I'm not afraid of a living person, let alone a dead person
Xiao Mian stood aside, almost laughed angrily at Guo Ergou's words, "Just like you, you are still a king and a loser?" Become a king, right? β
"Who gave you face with such a gold sticker?"
Mo Linglan also said: "Do you think you still have a chance not to open your mouth when you fall into our hands?" If you explain it well, you may be able to leave a life, but if you don't say anything, we have more ways to make you speak. β
Guo Ergou didn't pay any attention to the words of the two, but sneered sarcastically.
What else can be done, but to move the execution.
He had already thought about it, if he had the opportunity, he would definitely escape, but if the Qiwen Mansion and they let people torture and extort confessions, he would directly beg for death at that time.
A dead man, what can they do?
Su Ruan seemed to see through his thoughts, and said on the side, "Look at your look, are you thinking of swearing allegiance to the people behind you, and after falling into the hands of the enemy, you plan to die?" What about He Fangniang? You don't care anymore? β
Guo Ergou's eyes drooped, and he said coldly: "It's just a woman, and it's just a guise to fool you." Whether she is dead or alive, what does it have to do with me? β
Su Ruan let out an "oh", "That's it, then you mean, you don't care if she's dead or alive?" β
Guo Ergou clenched his fists, and his face was expressionless and he did not speak.
Su Ruan didn't care either, and directly turned his head to Qi Wenfu and said, "I originally planned to keep He Fangniang to contain Guo Ergou, but since she is useless, there is no need to keep it." β
"Fourth brother, the matter of the government was too big before, and now the people from the garrison are being used, even if the rest of the people are retrieved, there must always be an explanation."
"He Fangniang was bribed, and together with the thieves and bandits, he murdered the imperial court, and wanted to put me, the county lord, to death, so many pairs of eyes can be regarded as conclusive evidence. After she went back, she was sent directly to the government, which just made her bear the previous charge. β
Qi Wenfu hummed when he heard this: "I will let people release the news, He Fangniang colluded with bandits and instigated people to enter Beijing to murder the officials of the imperial court, and the previous incident in Jingnan was also because she was insatiable and conspired with her concubine to kill her for money." β
"With her, it's enough to quell those rumors from the outside world."
"And even if you can't catch the people behind the scenes, it's enough to give Jingzhong an explanation."
Guo Ergou, who was originally calm, raised his head violently and looked at Qi Wenfu and Su Ruan in disbelief.
"Are you crazy?!"
His eyes were full of shock, he couldn't believe that Qi Wenfu and Su Ruan, who seemed to be decent, could do such a shameless thing.
He Fangniang is just an innocent person, they obviously know that she is being coerced and forced by others.
They actually wanted to push He Fangniang out to take the blame?!
Guo Ergou hissed: "You two madmen, Fang Niang is just a weak woman, how can she collude with others, even if you push her out, no one will believe you!" β
Qi Wenfu said lightly: "Why do you need people to believe it? β
"Whether it is the people of Jingnan, the Zhizhou Mansion, or the imperial court and Your Majesty, what they ask for is just a result."
"The people want peace of mind, and what the government wants is just a statement that can be explained to the top, and the court only needs to calm down the chaos in Jingnan, and be able to clear the stigma on His Majesty, so that people no longer slander the reputation of the royal family."
"He Fangniang is here, it is enough to give everyone an explanation."
After finishing speaking, Qi Wenfu looked at Guo Ergou lightly.
"Besides, you don't care if she lives or dies?"
Guo Ergou's face was blue and red, "You guys...... Shameless! β
"Qi Wenfu, you are a member of the court, known as Qingtian, you are not afraid that after you push an innocent person out to take the crime, you will be laughed at and impeached?"
"Fang Niang has nothing to do with this matter, she was forced by me."
"Su Ruan!"
Guo Ergou looked at Su Ruan and hissed, "Fang Niang and his man died in Jingzhou with your father, you said that you respect them as uncles and will protect the people in their family, Fang Niang is forced......
"Forced?"
Su Ruan sneered meaninglessly, "What if she was forced, what does it have to do with me?" β
"If it weren't for me and Qi Wenfu being careful, we would be the ones who died in the fishing village tonight."
"When the time comes, she will be forced to cover up her ingratitude, or will she be able to wash away our blood on her hands?"
"I don't think you're stupid, how can you be so naΓ―ve?"
Who is not innocent?
Who doesn't have some last resort?
He Fangniang was certainly persecuted, but she was not without other ways, and even along the way, she had countless opportunities to choose to believe that she and Qi Wenfu, who had sheltered them, and even sought benefits for them, and protected them well.
As long as she says that she was being coerced, that tonight's events were a trap, or even the slightest hesitation, instead of sending them to death.
Su Ruan was able to spare her life, and even understood her situation.
But she didn't!
She didn't hesitate for the slightest, she chose the most beneficial method for her, and only thought about exchanging her and Qi Wenfu's lives for her son's thoughtfulness, and was unwilling to take a risk.
Case.
Then who is she to ask for their forgiveness, or even want them to take refuge?
Su Ruan actually didn't blame He Fangniang for being selfish and changing places, if it was Qi Wenfu or someone from the Xie family who was in trouble.
In desperation, she may also make the same choice as He Fangniang, sacrificing people who are not close to her to save what she cares about, but she will not selfishly think about exchanging the lives of others for the people she cares about, but she is extravagant and expects others to be willing.
That's not stupidity, it's poison.
Su Ruan lowered his eyes and looked at Guo Ergou, with undisguised mockery in his eyes,
"The simplest thing in this world is death, a strangulation of the neck, a glass of poisonous wine, and you don't know anything after your eyes are closed, since you are bent on death, why do you care if they are dead or alive after you die?"
"Don't worry, I'm the most considerate."
"Wait a minute, I will definitely let people torture you, if you can't stand it and die, I will send He Fangniang's mother and son to your funeral, so that you can be reunited underground and will not be lonely."
"Su Ruan!!"
Guo Ergou listened to Su Ruan's words, his face was full of hideousness, and he got up and wanted to rush towards her, but he was kicked back by Qi Wenfu.
He lay on the ground and hissed:
"You madman, poisonous woman!! You are so vicious, aren't you afraid that those people who died in vain will come to you? β
"I'm not afraid of the living, let alone the dead?"
Su Ruan looked up at the two Xie family guards, "I know that the army has its own set of torture methods, and no matter how hard the bones are, they can pry their mouths open. β
"I'll leave this man to you, no matter what means you use, to get him to speak."
After she finished speaking, she smiled lightly at Guo Ergou,
"I am indeed a poisonous woman, so you must live well, after all, you have three lives on you."
"What a pity if I die."
