Chapter 22
"Lady Li, Zhang Yongan, if you don't give us your word, I will give the order to execute you!"
"Lord, this humble woman has been wronged, wronged! This humble woman only took Lord Zhang's silver and wanted to sell Su Qing and Mu Yunyao to him. She did not have a secret relationship with him." Madame Li did not dare to hide anything anymore, and told the truth while crying.
Mu Yunyao lowered her head, but her tears kept dripping down, a heavy sense of grievance overflowing from her. "Ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-… … …"
Everyone could already imagine what would happen to such a girl if she fell into the hands of Lord Zhang. They immediately became more and more disgusted with Madame Li.
County Magistrate Liu frowned, "Servant, drag these two down and beat them. When are you willing to speak the truth and when are you going to stop?"
Mu Yunyao promptly kneeled beside Madame Li, "Milord, my grandmother just lost her leg, if we use torture again, I'm afraid that she would really die. Father was the most filial when he was alive, even though he died, Grandmother is still a grandmother.
"She hurt you so many times, yet you still plead for her?"
Mu Yunyao revealed a wry smile, "Blood is thicker than water." She didn't say much, but her words were filled with untold bitterness and bitterness.
County Magistrate Liu sighed, "You sure are kindhearted. If that's the case, you can persuade him."
Mu Yunyao quickly turned her head to Madame Li. Her voice was gentle, but her gaze was as cold as snow. "Grandmother, you have to say what you have to say. There's no need to accompany others to enter the underworld.
Madame Li's eyes widened, her teeth chattering. She remembered what Mu Yunyao had said in her cell: If I'm wrong, I'll die with Master Zhang. If I'm right, I'll let him die alone … …
Zhang Yongan was dead for sure, and she still wanted to live! Now, he could only ask Zhang Yongan to plead guilty and take him out!
Madame Li looked at Zhang Yongan, gritted her teeth and said, "Master, this humble woman has pleaded guilty. This humble woman is with Zhang Yongan and Ding Shan … "My dear, at night, they came together to meet …"
With this connection, the matter became clear.
Lady Li was on good terms with Zhang Laoshi and Ding Shan, and after their legs broke, Ding Shan came to visit. In his fury, Ding Shan hated Zhang Laoshi and threatened him with death, which made him want to kill someone.
Coincidentally, they were met by Mu Yunyao, who was worried that Mu Yunyao would kill her if she leaked the news. [Since I can't kill him, I might as well blame it on her. What a vicious thought!]
Two bailiffs dragged Zhang Yongan, who had been beaten half to death, up. Mu Yunyao glanced at him before indifferently withdrawing her gaze.
"Zhang Yongan tortured and killed seven innocent women, and his accomplice, Dingshan, for an unforgivable crime. He was sentenced to death and sentenced to a death sentence. The judge will immediately report the case to the Ministry of Justice for review. Madame Li is tainted with someone, and does not follow a woman's path, and is punished with a staff … "
Liu County Magistrate was in a difficult position. The people did not follow women's rules and were generally abandoned. Madame Li had been a widow for many years, and it was true that she had been involved with Lord Zhang and Ding Shan. However, if she were to be put to death, it would be too heavy.
"My lord!" Mu Yunyao respectfully kowtowed. "Grandmother is very old, and now that she's injured with her broken leg, although her actions are disrespectful, it doesn't harm anyone. Lord, please let us go!"
"Madame Li, reprimand number 20, make an example of others. Mu Yunyao, with a pure heart and no guilt, released her. Madame Li, you have a good granddaughter, from now on you must change your past and treat her well. "
"Yes, my lord. I understand." Madame Li hurriedly agreed. It was fortunate that she was able to keep her life. As for Mu Yunyao, she would hide as far as she could in the future and wouldn't dare to offend her again.
When Mu Yunyao walked out of the main hall, Su Qing immediately went up to her and hugged her. Her tears couldn't stop no matter what, "Yao`er, you've suffered, you've suffered."
"Mother, I'm fine." It was all over for Zhang Jiexi and Madame Li as well. She was in a very good mood right now.
Su Qing touched her little face and quickly dried her tears. "It's good that you're fine. Let's go. Mother borrowed some money from the Yang family's aunt and went to the hospital to bandage your wound."
Mu Yunyao shook her head. "Mother, Grandmother has been caned. Let's settle her down before we leave."
"... "Alright." After all, Lady Li was Mu Cheng's mother. Su Qing had grudges in her heart, but if she did not ask about it, people would inevitably gossip about her.
Many commoners heard the conversation between the mother and daughter, and then heard the villagers of Weir Village say what Madame Li usually did. They simply loathed this vile old woman to the extreme.
When Madame Li was dragged out, many people took the opportunity to spit. Yang Ming and the rest could only wait until most of the people had dispersed before they lifted them up.
Su Qing and Mu Yunyao thanked the villagers and asked them to carry Lady Li back first. Lady Yang and her husband accompanied them to the infirmary.
The doctor at the infirmary had already heard about this case. Seeing the wound on Mu Yunyao's arm, he jumped in fright. After bandaging it up, he wrapped up some herbs to nourish his Qi and blood.
When he walked to the city gate, he saw coroner Liu waiting there. When he saw Mu Yunyao and Su Qing, he raised his hand and beckoned, "The journey back is quite long, we should save some effort by riding in a carriage."
Mu Yunyao sized up coroner Liu and felt puzzled in her heart, "Sir, you're busy with official matters, so it's not good for you to trouble yourself …"
You don't have to worry, your father Mu Cheng and I used to have a relationship. A few days ago, I heard that he passed away, but at that time, I had a case on hand and couldn't go over to offer my condolences. I've already paid for the car.
Su Qing stepped forward, "Thank you, Sir coroner. This humble woman will pay her respects on behalf of her deceased husband."
"Madam Su, you're welcome. Let's go quickly."
The Yang family's husband and coachman were sitting outside. The Yang family, Su Qing and Mu Yunyao were sitting in a carriage as they quietly made their way to the Weir village.
Mu Yunyao closed her eyes as she examined Su Qing's embrace, her mind in chaos. In her previous life, when she escaped from the Zhang Residence and had her legs broken, Zhang Yongan wanted to capture him and bring him back, but unexpectedly, the family of a missing woman found the Residence of Zhang and unintentionally discovered the secret of the garden.
Right now, time was of the essence. In order to protect Su Qing, she hurriedly planned everything out for her. Fortunately, the matter was resolved without any great danger. As she thought about it, she actually fell asleep. It wasn't until the carriage started to shake did she wake up from her stupor.
"Yao'er, we're here."
"I actually slept all the way." Mu Yunyao's eyes widened in surprise. She opened the car door and saw the familiar scenery, her face full of embarrassment.
Seeing that she was in good spirits, Su Qing heaved a sigh of relief and caressed her soft hair, "Alright, hurry and get off the car. This big brother charioteer has no one in the house to take care of his business, so he dares not invite you in for tea.
"There's no need to be so polite. I'm familiar with coroner Liu, and he gave me the fare. I'll be leaving first."
After the carriage left, Su Qing thanked the Yang family once again. Mistress Yang patted her hand, "Yunyao, you haven't grown up yet. Your mother-in-law's legs are broken, so you need someone to take care of her. From now on, you have to plan carefully."
"I know." Su Qing gratefully shook her hand before bringing Mu Yunyao through the door.
