Chapter 143, Imitation of the Opening Event III

Two days later, the yamen posted a bright notice.

[Zheng Jinlin, the son of the Zheng family, teamed up with Cao Hong of the Cao family, pretending to be the belly pocket of [on the water side], and jointly killed three prostitutes in Yuchun Lou and Yuxiang Building, the crime was unforgivable, and he was sentenced to be beheaded at noon.

At the same time, the property of the family shall be confiscated, and all the losses caused during the damage to the reputation [of the water side] shall be compensated, one million taels of silver. 】

Beheading!

Check!

Indemnify!

When the common people saw such a verdict, they instantly boiled.

Why is it Zheng Jinlin and Cao Yuanwai?

How is this possible?

So [on the water side] was wronged from beginning to end?

But the government has issued an official notice, which can't deceive people.

At noon, the sun was blazing.

Zheng Jinlin and Cao Hong knelt in front of everyone with shackles around their necks that represented the weight of sin.

This is the first time Shen Qi has observed the beheading.

In fact, if this kind of thing happened in the imperial capital, if it was Emperor Wanzhen's decree, it would definitely be the extermination of the Nine Clans.

Because they offended Princess Shu Ning of the dynasty.

To offend Princess Shu Ning is to despise the imperial power, which is something that Emperor Wanzhen resolutely cannot bear.

Fortunately, this was in the north, and Shen Qi did not identify himself, nor did he tell Emperor Wanzhen about it.

It is enough to fight for life.

Not far from Shen Qi, Lin Wanjuan was also standing in the crowd.

Cao Hong, who was on the execution table, saw Lin Wanjuan from the crowd at first sight.

The two have resented each other for a lifetime, even to the point of asking each other to die.

In fact, how many husbands and wives resented each other, hated each other, were indifferent to each other, and lived each other's lives.

Maybe it's for face, for the sake of the children, for the silver.

Love and parting are bitter, and resentment will also be bitter.

It's time for an end.

Compared with Cao Hong, who was motionless, Zheng Jinlin always writhed his body without stopping.

Because his mouth was stuffed with strips of cloth, he could not speak, and could only make a "hmm-hmm-" sound.

Jin Fanhua and Jin Di stood under the stage and looked at Zheng Jinlin, who had been writhing around.

Jin Di's face was full of the joy of revenge.

During this time, the government directly raided the Zheng family, and the Zheng family plummeted directly in Tancheng, and the rest of the families took over at a low price.

Among them is the Golden Flower.

Previously, Zheng Jinlin snatched 10,000 catties of cotton from Jin Di for 35 wen a catty, and Jin Fanhua bought it back at a lower price of 20 wen a catty.

Of these, 350,000 taels of silver entered, 200,000 taels went out, and 150,000 taels were earned.

And the cotton hasn't grown yet.

It took just over half a month.

It's too easy to make money.

Moreover, Jin Di personally followed Jin Fanhua that day and went proudly.

How arrogant Zheng Jinlin was in front of him before, Jin Di returned it all at this moment.

Joyfully!

Unlike Jin Di, who was smiling, the Zheng family not far away was completely mournful.

Zheng Jinlin is the hope of their Zheng family, once Zheng Jinlin dies, then the Zheng family will no longer have any chance to participate in the Northern Chamber of Commerce at all, and it can even be said that within a few years, the Zheng family will be lonely.

Because there is no successor to the Zheng family.

During this period of time, they recouped all kinds of rents regardless of the cost, sold what they could sell, sold what they could, and threw the silver into the government government desperately.

But how the money was sent back was sent back as it was.

Just kidding, Peng Liangbin, does he dare to accept it?

Some officials accepted the money and said a few words for the Zheng family, but Peng Liangbin counted them down for a while, and finally returned the money.

After all, in Ningbei City, Peng Liangbin is the biggest official.

Therefore, until today, Zheng Jinlin has not been able to get out of prison.

It can be seen how determined Peng Liangbin is to cut off his head.

When the sun climbed to the middle, Peng Liangbin looked at the sky.

It's almost time.

He tossed the decapitation token into the ground.

"Slash!"

As soon as these words came out, the Zheng family was suddenly in chaos.

Zheng Jinlin writhed even more, he didn't believe that he would die in this place at all, he would die here!

Cao Hong's eyes were always staring at Lin Wanjuan.

The executioner raised the machete in his hand, and the blade of the machete gleazed in the sunlight.

Zheng Jinlin's two sides were pressed to death, and he couldn't move at the moment.

Cao Hong imprinted Lin Wanjuan's last face in his heart.

He saw two lines of tears cross the corner of her eye.

At this point, the executioner is up and down!

"Ah——!h

There was a cry from the crowd.

Shen Qi was originally focused, but at the moment when the head hit the ground, his eyes were covered by Tang Zongjiu.

"Junge?" Shen Qi called out.

"Don't look." Tang Zongjiu said.

"I'm fine."

After experiencing the battle of the water bandits, Shen Qi's acceptance of the word "death" is many times higher than in the past.

"I don't want you to see it." Tang Zongjiu said lightly.

"Okay." Shen Qi leaned on Tang Zongjiu, "If you don't want me to watch it, I won't watch it." I listen to you. ”

Tang Zongjiu didn't speak, hugged Shen Qi in his arms, and hooked the corners of his lips.

Soon, in the screaming and exhausted cries of the Zheng family, a smell of blood came out.

The timid people closed their eyes long the moment the executioner raised his sword.

Only a few brave witnesses witnessed the whole process, but their bodies were somewhat unwell.

This was the end of the execution.

After all, it was not a good thing, and the entire execution table was soon empty, and even the two heads that were cut off were cleaned up.

Only the smell of blood remained in the air for a long time.

After the matter was completely resolved, Shen Qi buried the bodies of Xiaoxuan and the others in a public cemetery in the suburbs.

It's just that she buried the ashes of three people, not corpses.

Because before the burial, in order to avoid epidemics, she cremated the three of them.

With a "crackling" sound from the combustion, the smoke spirals up.

Shen Qi looked up at the sky, and she saw Xiao Xuan's slightly immature face again.

She was in the sky, wearing that belly pocket, and said thank you to Shen Qi with a smile.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and Xiao Xuan disappeared like this.

At this point, the whole thing is completely over.

On the second day, [on the water side] opened as usual.

Even under the pressure of almost city-wide returns, [On the Water Side] has never stopped business for a day.

This shop, like its owner, is a character that will not admit defeat no matter what.

Although [on the water side] was compensated and did not suffer too much loss because of this, the overall popularity still dropped a lot all of a sudden.

After all, this kind of thing often has the best effect in one go, and being interrupted by such a block in the middle still has a great impact.

Today, Zhao Chunrui specially came to [On the Water Side] and found Shen Qi.

"Boss Tang, you don't know, now there are many ready-to-wear shops outside imitating your store, although I know that it is not Mr. Ding's embroidery method, but it is also vivid, the key is cheap." (End of chapter)
