The prefect didn't have time to notice the change in Shen Yubai's facial expression, "My lord, in fact, this is not a big deal, as long as you give an order, this guilty person can actually become innocent." ”

He had a flattering smile on his face.

A trace of disgust flashed in Shen Yubai's eyes.

When he heard that the real murderer was Shen Yuexi, his face was unwavering, he looked very calm, without any touch, only a face full of indifference.

"My Shen family has such a scourge, it is a misfortune in the family, and if you do something wrong, you have to pay the due price, this is an immutable law, it will not change because of any intimate relationship, the prefect does not have to take the wrong path, and do not have any concerns, just enforce the law impartially."

The prefect was stunned for a moment, thinking that Shen Yubai was doing superficial work, but in fact, he also wanted to protect Shen Yuexi.

It wasn't until he looked up and saw Shen Yubai's cold expression that he understood that Shen Yubai really wanted to kill his relatives and insist on impartial law enforcement.

The prefect wiped the sweat from his head, and felt a sense of jealousy and awe towards Shen Yubai.

After all, not everyone can watch their loved ones die under torture.

Shen Yubai, who insists on "justice", and Shen Yubai, who is distracted outside the light curtain, form two extreme contrasts.

Lin Yang cautiously comforted Shen Yubai, "Senior Brother didn't know at that time, and it was inevitable that there would be misunderstandings, so you don't have to blame yourself too much." ”

Shen Yu's white eyes were silent, if he could, he naturally wanted to go back to that time to stop what he had done.

Now he could only watch Shen Yuexi and the rest of the monks being escorted to the fire, waiting for noon to be burned at the stake.

Burning at the stake does not make a person die immediately, but after suffering a great deal of pain, it is undoubtedly a form of torture.

"Fortunately, God also helped me and stopped my mistakes in time, otherwise I would have been to blame for my death......"

Shen Yubai knew what happened later, and while regretting it, he also quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Yang didn't know why, he was so nervous that he almost couldn't breathe, and couldn't help but close his eyes and fold his hands to pray for Shen Yuexi.

"Look, it's getting so gloomy!"

Suddenly, a monk in the crowd exclaimed, overlapping with the voices of the onlookers in the light curtain.

Inside the light curtain.

"Look, it's not a good day, it's going to rain heavily!"

"As soon as the fire was lit, the sky changed, how do I feel that this is not a coincidence......"

"How is it possible, what nonsense are you talking about, don't look at this little girl who is harmless to humans and animals, I heard that she has taken hundreds of lives, and the stake of fire is light!"

The executioner frowned, but still under the order, the fire was lit on time.

The flames were blazing, and Shen Yuexi felt that she was burning painfully.

But at this moment, a "boom" was heard, and thunder sounded, like some kind of warning, and then a heavy rain poured down, instantly extinguishing the fire that had been ignited.

The prefect on the stage looked at this scene and was a little apprehensive, could it be ...... Is this providential?

He thought for a moment, raised his hand and said, "Postpone the execution, let's all disperse first!" ”

After the heavy rain, many onlookers had already run away, leaving only a few people waiting in place.

The heavy rain stopped quickly, but the firewood was so wet that it could not be lit for a moment.

The second day was a nice sunny day, and by noon the day the punishment was about to be executed, the sky and the earth changed color and heavy rain fell.

Once or twice, perhaps it was a coincidence, but the third time the prefect specially changed it to the night execution, and it was still raining heavily at a critical moment.

"This is providence, providence! Let go of Shen Yuexi, and let her go immediately! ”

As if stimulated by something, the prefect screamed strangely and ordered the release of the people.

The officials were all afraid of Shen Yuexi.

Some people think that she is the gospel and is favored by God, but more people think that Shen Yuexi is some kind of terrible demon who uses witchcraft to escape punishment.

Everyone argued, and finally someone proposed that the unconscious Shen Yuexi be thrown into the wild and left to fend for himself.

Shen Yuexi saved her life, but she was dying, with more air out and less air intake.

She woke up to find herself locked in a small room, pitch black.

With a "squeak", someone pushed the door in and threw two steamed buns in front of her, and there was a bowl of porridge next to her.

"Hurry up and eat it, I thought it was a beauty, but I didn't expect it to be so ugly, so I could only send it to the Prime Minister's Mansion as an inferior servant."

It was a man with sinister eyebrows who spoke, and he kept complaining, "Who would want such a weak person to be a servant, but he can't waste Lao Tzu's energy, and it would be good if he could sell it for a small amount of money!" ”

It turned out that this was a trafficker, and when I saw Shen Yuexi on the road, I thought it was a beauty, and I wanted to send it to the newly appointed young prime minister, maybe I could exchange it for glory and wealth.

Who knew that when he was rescued, he found that Shen Yuexi's face was burned, and he immediately dispelled his thoughts, planning to raise it casually for two days, and when his body was not so weak, he would be sent to be a subordinate.

"You...... Who are you? ”

Shen Yuexi's brain was groggy, and there was still a faint burning sensation on her body.

The trafficker looked at Shen Yuexi, "I think it's about the same, you can contact someone from the Prime Minister's Mansion and send it over." ”

Shen Yuexi, who was already unconscious, was still in a daze, so he was sent to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Your Excellency."

Shen Yubai's subordinates invited people over.

Shen Yubai recognized the disfigured Shen Yuexi at a glance, and her eyebrows frowned slightly.

He had also heard about the fire.

At first, he thought it was nonsense, and did not believe in the so-called providence.

It was only later that he asked people to investigate, and found traces of the existence of monsters in the village.

Only then did Shen Yubai begin to guess that the matter might have nothing to do with Shen Yuexi.

Shen Yubai's affection for Shen Yuexi was almost wiped out in the disappointment day after day, and out of the bond of blood and the only trace of regret, he finally bought Shen Yuexi.

Seeing Shen Yuexi's haggard face, Shen Yubai waved his hand, "Take her down to eat something, there is porridge in the kitchen." ”

The entourage was a little surprised, but still took Shen Yuexi to the kitchen.

"This porridge was boiled for Miss by the adults themselves, I didn't expect it to let you taste it."

The entourage didn't know Shen Yuexi, and they didn't know that their adults had another sister.

Holding a bowl of porridge in his hand, it actually smelled a little strange, Shen Yuexi carefully scooped a spoonful and fed it to his mouth, and the taste in his mouth was even more indescribable.

It's a little unpalatable.

But Shen Yuexi ate very happily, and soon devoured a whole bowl.

Outside the light curtain, Shen Yubai's expression was complicated, and he felt very uncomfortable.

He remembered that time, the first time he cooked, the porridge specially boiled for Shen Yuerong.

Shen Yuerong spit it out after taking a bite, calling it unpalatable, disgusted with Shen Yubai's craftsmanship, and made no secret of it.

Shen Yubai was very injured at that time, he tasted it himself later, and the taste was indeed a little strange.

He didn't expect Shen Yuexi to eat with relish, the bowl was not like porridge, but like he was eating some delicacies from the mountains and seas.
