Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space
Chapter 2189: Sent to Death Row
Seeing Liu Mochen lying on the ground like a dead dog, Xiao Jingheng stepped forward, grabbed his collar and lifted him up.
At this moment, Liu Mochen had already spat out his bloody teeth, tilted his head back and put half of his face forward, which immediately caused Xiao Jingheng to curse: "Asshole, you are looking for death!"
"So what?" Liu Mochen looked crazy, with no remorse at all: "Xiao Jingheng, don't think you've won. She's just a slut I played with. A slut is paired with a waste, what a good match, hahahaha."
He laughed wildly, and his words made Shangguan Chu's face turn pale in an instant.
Those memories came back to her mind, and she staggered, almost falling to the ground. It was Wan Shufang who supported her: "Achu, calm down."
"Liu Mochen is deliberately trying to break down your psychological defenses. Don't be fooled. A woman's chastity is never hidden beneath her skirt."
After she finished speaking, Shangguan Chu looked at Wan Shufang with tears in her eyes. Seeing her encouraging eyes, she finally calmed down. She walked to Xiao Jingheng, and the two looked into each other's eyes and firmly held each other's hands.
"Liu Mochen, you don't love me at all, so why do you have to destroy me? Aren't all the things the Liu family did before enough?" Shangguan Chu's tone was calm, but these words were like cold water dropped into a frying pan.
The people were instantly excited and couldn't help but think of what the Liu family had done, and they all defended Shangguan Chu.
"It's true that the Liu family is full of lies. This Liu Mochen, even after his death, still comes to slander Miss Shangguan."
"Miss Shangguan has already broken off the engagement with you. What does it have to do with you now that they're getting married?"
"Go to hell, gutter bugs."
Everyone rushed forward, taking whatever they could get their hands on and throwing it all at Liu Mochen, beating him so hard that he ran away in panic. But Chen Changli would not let him escape this time.
He immediately ordered his men to restrain him, his tone cold: "Liu Mochen, you have repeatedly committed crimes in public, have shown no remorse, and even escaped from prison. From now on, you will be thrown into death row and held there until your execution."
When these words were spoken, everyone in the room was shocked. The death row was filled with vicious and evil people. If a delicate and tender scholar like Liu Mochen went in, it was not known whether he could survive to see the execution.
But everyone tacitly agreed not to beg for mercy. Instead, they looked very pleased and praised Chen Changli for doing a good job.
Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Liu Mochen gave up struggling and let Chen Changli's men take him away. But before leaving, he cast a sad look at Shangguan Chu.
There was a look in his eyes that seemed to be accusing her, because she was the one who broke the contract and gave up on him first.
Meeting Liu Mochen's meaningful gaze, Shangguan Chu turned his head away indifferently, and subconsciously exerted force with his hands. The next second, a large palm appeared on his head.
"Don't be afraid, Achu. No matter what happens, I will protect you." Xiao Jingheng's voice was low and his expression was serious and earnest.
Meeting his gentle and affectionate gaze, Shangguan Chu smiled happily and nodded vigorously: "Jing Heng, I have always believed in you. Let's go. Our wedding has just begun. Don't waste it for the bad people."
"it is good."
Xiao Jingheng responded softly, and with a glance, the servants immediately became busy again, beating drums and gongs. The scene became lively again, and the two of them walked into the Xiao family hand in hand.
At the call of the matchmaker, the couple bowed in the hall lovingly. The elders from both families smiled and drank the tea offered by the newlyweds.
"The ceremony is completed! Send it to the bridal chamber!"
As soon as the shout was heard, Shangguan Chu and Xiao Jingheng were surrounded and taken back to the bridal chamber. The wedding banquet began, and Chen Changli and Wan Shufang sat down to eat peacefully. Their seats were specially chosen by Shangguan Chu.
They can eat quietly and still enjoy the lively atmosphere, which can be regarded as a way for them, as a newlywed couple, to express their gratitude to the two.
The wedding banquet lasted all day long. At night, after the crowd had dispersed, Xiao Jingheng stumbled towards the room. Under the bright candlelight, Shangguan Chu was sitting quietly on the bed, wearing a red veil embroidered with mandarin ducks.
Hearing the sound, she called out softly, "Jing Heng, you're back."
"Achu."
There was still some drunkenness in Xiao Jingheng's tone. He shook his head, picked up the thing next to him to pick up the veil, and carefully lifted her veil.
A pretty and bright little face came into his sight, and he was instantly distracted. Shangguan Chu looked up at him, her eyes rippling with tears, and her face blushed with shyness.
"Achu, I finally married you."
"I am also very happy to finally marry you."
The two of them poured out their hearts to each other, and confessions came out of their mouths. In the deep night, Xiao Jingheng looked at the beautiful Shangguan Chu, waved his hand, and untied the curtain.
From the bed curtains, faint sounds slowly emerged. After a period of lovemaking, she moaned three times before gradually stopping, bringing today's wedding banquet to a complete end.
a few days later.
All the evidence was handed over to the court, and the corruption case in Beijing was settled. Because Chen Changli and the county magistrate had made meritorious contributions in the thorough investigation, the emperor specially sent a eunuch to announce the reward.
Inside the county magistrate's mansion, the eunuch who announced the imperial edict was holding the imperial edict, while the other people in the mansion were kneeling on the ground. Just as Chen Changli and Wan Shufang were about to salute, they were stopped by the eunuch.
"My Lord, Madam, His Majesty has specifically instructed that you two do not need to kneel to receive His Majesty's orders."
Upon hearing this, Chen Changli and Wan Shufang exchanged a glance, understanding the situation. However, they still followed the rules and quietly thanked him, "Your Majesty, thank you for your mercy."
"The Emperor, by the Mandate of Heaven, decrees that the corruption case in the capital has been investigated. Duke Chen Changli, in collaboration with Shangguan Tou, has been commended for his thorough investigation. He is hereby rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold, a pair of Hetian jade bracelets, and a thousand acres of fertile farmland..."
After the eunuch read out a series of edicts, many treasures were taken out of the car by the guards from the palace and transported into the county magistrate's mansion. By the time the imperial edict was finished, the yard was already filled with things.
Looking at the scenery in the courtyard, Shangguan Tou was almost excited and knelt down to thank and accept the order.
"Your humble servant accepts the order and thanks His Majesty for your grace!"
"Long live my emperor! Long live!"
The eunuch handed the imperial edict to Shangguan Tou, then looked at Chen Changli and said respectfully, "Duke, His Majesty has already sent your reward to the Duke's Mansion."
"We only have the Hetian jade bracelet here. Your Majesty thinks the lady will like it, so let us bring it over."
As he spoke, he took out a small box and showed the jade bracelet to everyone. The jade bracelet was moist and smooth, with a fine luster, which really made Wan Shufang's eyes light up. She took it out and put it on her hand.
"I like it very much. Please, eunuch, thank His Majesty for us." She took out a bag of silver and put it in the eunuch's hand. The old man immediately smiled and the wrinkles on his face were squeezed into a ball.
"You're welcome, madam."
"However, Madam, His Majesty also said that if you have nothing else to do, you can return to the capital as soon as possible. His Majesty has reserved a place for you in the court."
Hearing this, Chen Changli shook his head without hesitation, held Wan Shufang's hand tightly, looked at his eunuch, and politely declined, "Eunuch, please tell me that Changli understands the emperor's intentions."
"But we, my husband and I, don't seek wealth and fame, we only want to travel the world."
