Traveling through troubled times, he fled with his stepson

Ever since Yizhou changed its owner, the people have been trembling with fear and looking forward to finding out what the new city lord will be like.

The city has been very peaceful, and people's lives have not yet returned to their normal days.

But life has to go on, and some people have already started selling the things they hastily made at home.

Have everything.

There is food, straw sandals, and beds and quilts.

Their faces showed enthusiasm for the brief peace and they wanted to live a good life in the days ahead.

A burst of noise broke the tranquility here. The faces of the people who were originally smiling froze, and then they stood up nervously, with their hands already on the table.

"what happened?"

"What happened?"

"Another war?"

Everyone was talking at once and there was a lot of noise.

The voice was so thin and small, but it made the people around him slowly calm down.

"There's a beheading operation going on in the city center, go and see!"

A woman frowned quickly, "Behead? Who?"

"What just happened? How could it be..." Feeling uneasy, they were afraid of what would happen next.

I'm afraid that the city lord who takes over is a bad person.

"It's the Jiang family!" the man shouted with all his might, and he was out of breath because of the effort.

Everyone looked at each other, and someone in the crowd burst out with hatred, "Which good person are those Jiang family beasts going to kill again? These..."

"It's those people from the Jiang family who want to be beheaded!"

"Go and see, they've been escorted!"

The man shouted and jumped, and walked away, leaving a group of people looking at each other.

"This……"

"Did you just hear that?"

"Those people from the Jiang family are going to be beheaded?"

The man who initially burst out with hatred asked the question several times in a row, his voice gradually growing louder.

The people around him slowly responded: "I think I heard it too..."

"That's right, I heard it too!"

"Come on, Lao Li, go check! Check to see if the beast who bullied your daughter is there! Check!"

Someone slapped the man next to him who had hatred in his eyes. Old Li listened to the responses from the people around him and slowly rolled his eyes.

Then he came to his senses and staggered towards the city center.

The place where beheadings took place was on the Farmers' Market Street, which was the city center, a spacious and open area with easy access.

A woman turned around excitedly, whimpering, "He'er's revenge. I want to tell my sister, I want to tell my sister..."

Some people followed, and a large group of people rushed in the same direction. Someone who didn't know what was going on asked.

After learning about the front dragon and back veins, he quickly put his things away and went over there with a relieved expression on his face.

The crowd was getting bigger and bigger, and soldiers were already stationed at the entrance of the vegetable market in the city center to maintain security.

These people were surrounding the place in all directions. Jiang Shiping had temporarily built a high platform for today so that people behind could see clearly.

The first people who came to the market saw the Jiang family members being held there. They had black cloth stuffed in their mouths, their eyes covered with cloth strips, and their hands and feet were tied, one after another.

"It's them……"

Old Li immediately saw the person on the far left. He was a man in his thirties. Even if Old Li's eyes were blurry, he could still recognize him at once.

He would recognize the man even if he turned into ashes.

Old Li, who had already lost hope, suddenly lost strength in his legs and feet and collapsed to the ground. He murmured as he looked at the miserable appearance of the man who was tied up.

Suddenly he said frantically: "Son——"

"Daughter-in-law——"

"That beast Jiang is going to die, they are going to die!"

"Your great hatred..."

"Son..."

Old Li sobbed and lowered his head. His originally straight body slowly became hunched, as if he had aged a lot in an instant.

In fact, Lao Li was only thirty-four or thirty-five, and when the incident happened in his family, he was only thirty-two or thirty-three. At this age, his son had just married a new wife, who was three months pregnant.

Just because the new daughter-in-law wanted to help them sell things, she came out that one time and was spotted by the beast from the Jiang family.

They were humiliating the new bride, and Old Li, who went to stop them, was pushed against the wall nearby. His head hit the wall and he passed out.

When the new bride woke up, she was naked and her lower body was covered in blood, while her son had a fatal wound in his throat and was dead, but his eyes were still looking at the new bride.

Mr. Li's wife was unlucky and passed away two years before his son got married. He is now left with his son, daughter-in-law and the baby in her belly.

Unexpectedly, an unexpected event would cause him to lose all his loved ones overnight.

He covered his daughter-in-law with a quilt in a daze, tears streaming down his face, then he dug a hole and buried his son directly in the yard.

He didn't expect that after burying his son, he would go to take care of his daughter-in-law. But when he entered the house, he saw his daughter-in-law hanging herself in her wedding clothes.

Old Li held on for a breath, an old man sending off his young son. He wanted to go with him, but he had a 16- or 17-year-old grandson who had been raised by him after his daughter was divorced and died unexpectedly.

He wanted to take revenge, even if it meant death.

But he can't die.

For the sake of his grandson, what would he do if his grandson died?

He just kept holding on.

I never thought that I would see these beasts die tragically in front of me in my lifetime.

Old Li was laughing and crying, but no one around him looked at him in surprise.

Because there are many such cases, not just a few.

There are men and women, old and young.

Without exception, they cried, laughed, and cursed the Jiang family.

"Three cuts and six holes are not enough!"

Some people were indignant and said, but in the end nothing can be changed.

Li Yuan sat at the highest place, at the same height as the prisoners' executions. He hid behind Jiang Shiping and looked at the people below with a calm look.

He was originally unable to empathize with these people, but now, if anyone dared to treat Qi Niang like this, he was afraid that he would be even worse than these people.

When the time was almost right, Jiang Shiping turned around and looked at Li Yuan to ask for his instructions.

Li Yuan nodded slightly, and Jiang Shiping turned around and began to deal with it.

"quiet--"

The drums sounded, and as the surrounding officials kept silent, the excited crowd gradually quieted down.

They looked toward the platform.

The well-known City Lord Jiang then picked up a signed note and read aloud: "In the 43rd Jiazi year of Tianqi, Jiang Guo, Jiang An, Jiang Haokun...

There were nine people in total. They raped women, killed people, stole and robbed people. They did all kinds of evil things, and their deeds were so bad that people dare not even think about them.

All the cases have been reopened and re-investigated, and all nine have been sentenced to death by beheading as a warning to others!"

The crowd suddenly became chaotic.

Jiang Shiping signaled for the person to be brought up.

Pushing up first, Jiang Shiping took off the cloth strips on Jiang Guo's eyes. When he saw Jiang Shiping, Jiang Guo suddenly opened his eyes wide, then gradually relaxed, looking at the guillotine with indifference.

He couldn't help but look at the onlookers below, and then at Li Yuan behind Jiang Shiping.

Belated stiffness.
