Chapter 4589
Xiaohuan's words were like a heavy hammer, each blow struck deeply into Zhou Wang's heart.
Zhou Wang simply didn't dare to make that idea.
If that were the case, he would probably go crazy as a ghost. That was his own child, not a pig, horse, cow, or sheep. How could he be slaughtered like that?
The last trace of hesitation in Zhou Wang's eyes disappeared, and he gritted his teeth and said: "You deserve it, this is retribution, you deserve it!"
"It would be a shame for our Zhou family to have such a person!"
…
At dawn, Yoruichi came back.
Luo Fengtang went outside the house and entered the house after a while.
"How's it going?" Yang Ruoqing asked.
Blacksmith Luo and Xiao Huan also looked this way.
Luo Fengtang said: "The couple has been arrested and thrown into prison, and their home has been sealed off."
"In addition to the secret room the two of us discovered last night, there is also a larger secret room in the study, with more skeletons in it..."
"hiss……"
Everyone in the room took a breath of cold air, this evil...
"The nature of this matter is quite bad, and since I have already revealed my identity, the county magistrate did not dare to be careless and reported the matter to the magistrate of Qing'an County," he said.
Yang Ruoqing nodded, this kind of thing really needs to be reported.
The Black Lotus Sect is a taboo in Daqi. Because of the Black Lotus Sect's infiltration in all aspects, Daqi looks calm on the surface, but there is a turbulent undercurrent in the interior.
Therefore, the imperial court is most concerned about this kind of thing, and will definitely punish it severely. Moreover, it will use Zhou Xia and his wife as the axis to follow the clues and eradicate the remnants of the Black Lotus Sect lurking in Wanghai County...
No matter what the final harvest is, Zhou Xia and her husband are dead this time!
Three days later, official documents were posted at the entrance of the county government office and at the entrance of Washikou, declaring Zhou Xia and his wife guilty.
Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang were also standing in the crowd looking at the list. As for the crimes listed for Zhou Xia and his wife, Yang Ruoqing just glanced at them. She only paid attention to the final trial results.
That's four words: Qiuhou asks to behead!
These four words are the key to the entire article.
However, the Queen of Autumn is asking, when will she be considered the real Queen of Autumn?
It's late May in the lunar calendar now. Does autumn mean after the early rice is harvested?
Or wait until near the Mid-Autumn Festival?
That's too far!
After coming out of the crowd, Yang Ruoqing said to Luo Fengtang: "This autumn, I'm worried about the long nights and dreams. We have to strike while the iron is hot. If something goes wrong, it will be bad."
Luo Fengtang thought for a while and said: "The people are now being held in the county jail. If there are any remnants of them hanging around, they can indeed be rescued within such a long time."
Thinking of this, Luo Fengtang raised his hand and Ye Yi appeared.
Luo Fengtang whispered a few words to Ye Yi, who nodded, turned around and disappeared into the crowd.
"Tangyazi, what did you ask Ye Yi to do?" Yang Ruoqing asked curiously.
Luo Fengtang raised his eyebrows: "I absolutely can't let Zhou Xia and his wife fly away. Naturally, I asked Ye Yi to do something, so as to put some pressure on the Yamen and let them ask questions and settle this matter earlier!"
Yang Ruoqing breathed a sigh of relief and smiled brightly at Luo Fengtang: "We thought of going together. They really are a couple. They have a good understanding."
…
In the county jail.
Zhou Xia and his wife were detained separately. At this time, Zhou Xia was curled up in a corner of the cell with her knees in her arms, her hair disheveled and her whole body shaking.
There were scars on his face, some were scabbed, some were not, mixed with mud, water and dust, making him look like a madman.
But the madman's eyes revealed ferocity.
"Yang Ruoqing, you bitch, I will never let you go, I won't let you go!"
She gritted her teeth, and every time she said this sentence, she would scratch the wall next to her with her long nails.
Her nails were broken and her fingers were bleeding. She was like a machine stuck in an endless loop, still repeating this sentence.
In another cell separated by a wall from her, her man, Boss Cui, the merchant who has been rated as the most active taxpayer in Wanghai County for five consecutive years, is sitting facing the wall with a gloomy face.
He pulled something out of his mouth, glanced around to make sure there were no jailers patrolling, and quietly unfolded the pulled thing out.
It was a ball that was kneaded into the size of soybean grains and was brought in under the food.
Shopkeeper Cui opened the paper and wrote two sentences on it in characters thinner than a mosquito's legs.
Seeing these words, Shopkeeper Cui's lips twitched into a sneer, and his eyes became a little brighter.
Qiuhou asked about beheading?
Haha, within ten days, someone will come to rob the prison, and then all he has to do is follow the instructions on the paper.
As for the crazy woman in the cell next door, well, I originally married her because I was interested in Feiyanfang, which she co-founded with others, so that I could steal girls from Feiyanfang for sacrifice.
Now that the matter was exposed, it was natural that he could no longer stay in Wanghai County, and he would naturally try every means to escape.
Ten days, ten days, almost...
However, Shopkeeper Cui's sweet dream had not lasted long. At dawn the next day, the jailer came to deliver the meal.
Compared with the leftovers of the previous days, today it is a bowl of white rice with a chicken leg on top and a few small green vegetables on the side.
What is going on? Could someone help me take care of this secretly?
Just when Shopkeeper Cui was confused, the cold voice of the jailer came into his ears: "Eat quickly, and be on your way after eating."
On the road?
Shopkeeper Cui had just picked up the bowl when he suddenly heard this and was startled. The bowl fell to the ground and broke into several pieces!
"Didn't you say that Queen Qiu asked to be killed?" he asked in a trembling voice.
The jailer smiled disdainfully: "The county magistrate has changed his decision temporarily to avoid undue complications. I will ask him in advance, at noon today..."
"no no……"
Shopkeeper Cui grabbed the chicken leg on the ground and threw it at the jailer in front of him, hitting the jailer's eye without any deviation.
The jailer howled loudly, and while the jailer raised his hands to cover his eyes, Shopkeeper Cui rushed over, pulled out the sword from the jailer's waist, and stabbed it directly into the jailer's abdomen.
Then he grabbed the key hanging from the jailer's waist, opened his anklet, and rushed out of the cell.
In the cell next door, Zhou Xia had already seen all this through the thumb-sized hole in the middle wall.
Seeing that Shopkeeper Cui had escaped, Zhou Xia rushed to the wooden fence and beat it, shouting: "Cui Hu, help me, help me!"
Shopkeeper Cui originally didn't intend to save him, but Zhou Xia's wild shouting behind him made him frown.
He returned with the key and opened the door of the cell where Zhou Xia was. As soon as the door was opened, Zhou Xia rushed towards the door impatiently.
His hair was disheveled, but his eyes were filled with excitement: "I knew you had a plan. When I get out, the first thing you do is to kill the daughter of Yang Ruoqing's family to let out what's in my heart..."
