Time Travel: Unrivaled in the Tang Dynasty

After resting for a night in the inn, Ye Haoran got up early the next day. He wanted to continue on his journey, but he was attracted by the noisy crowd on the street!

Ye Haoran asked the shopkeeper and found out that a major case occurred in Pingzhou City. A mute girl poisoned her entire family of eight, including a four-year-old child!

The shopkeeper shook his head, full of helplessness!

"How could this happen? Was he abused?" Ye Haoran asked in confusion!

The shopkeeper looked at Ye Haoran wearing a mask and said nothing! He just shook his head and left!

Driven by curiosity, Ye Haoran followed the crowd to the Pingzhou government office!

The governor of the palace, Li Xian, had already entered the court. Looking at the mute girl kneeling below with a numb expression, he couldn't help but frown!

The girl was thirteen or fourteen years old, just in her prime, yet she was chained and wearing prison clothes. Her originally pretty face was red and purple, and it looked like she had been tortured a lot!

"The criminal, Chen Qinglian, you poisoned a family of eight. Now that you have admitted it, why don't you sign a confession?" Li Xian asked with a stern look on his face!

Unfortunately, Chen Qinglian did not respond. She was a mute girl. Although there was a pen and paper in front of her, she did not intend to answer at all! She just stared blankly at the four big words hanging high in the hall!

"Sir Li! This woman has a vicious heart. Now that she has admitted it, there is no need to waste time!" A middle-aged man in official uniform said indignantly!

"This... Lord Changsun, according to the Tang Dynasty law, there is not enough evidence. This kind of murder case can only be judged if the criminal signs and admits his crime!" Li Xian was embarrassed! The person who spoke was Changsun Rong, the chief of Pingzhou. Although his official rank was lower than his, he was a direct descendant of the Changsun family! He couldn't afford to offend him!

"Lord Li! It will be difficult for you to make any further progress if you stick to the old ways like a turtle!" Chang Sun Rong stood up, his face full of impatience!

"Lord Changsun!" A hint of anger flashed across Li Xian's face!

"Lord Li just wants to feel at peace with himself! Come here! Bring up the evidence and witnesses!" Chang Sun Ping gave the order without any fear!

A broken pot filled with arsenic was brought up by the yamen runners, and a man with shifty eyes was brought up!

The man recounted the process of Chen Qinglian poisoning the woman he witnessed with his own eyes, but there were many loopholes and no way to verify it!

"How is it? Lord Li, you handled the case impartially. We have both witnesses and evidence. You can now judge the case!" The Chief Clerk Changsun Rong smiled!

Li Xian's expression froze!

"Put the female prisoner Chen Qinglian in the death row and execute her in the autumn!" Li Xian slammed the gavel and threw the red token in the hall!

Even so, Chen Qinglian remained indifferent, smiled miserably, and slowly closed her eyes! Tears slid down her tender cheeks. Death was more like a relief for her!

"Sir Li, this is inappropriate!" Chang Sun Rong still spoke out to stop him!

"What does Lord Changsun mean? Do you think I'm easy to bully?" Li Xian couldn't help but get angry! !

"Lord Li, please calm down. This kind of vicious criminal should be executed as soon as possible! I think there is no need to wait until autumn! Let's execute him at Mingxia Mountain at noon tomorrow!" Changsun Rong left a word and walked out of the hall, leaving no room for Li Xian to negotiate!

"He will be executed at noon tomorrow!" Li Xian couldn't bear to look at Chen Qinglian again and hurriedly left the court!

"A dog official who takes human life lightly!" The crowd watching at the government office expressed their indignation!

"What can we do? The Changsun family is now in power in the Tang Dynasty. We can only blame that girl for her bad luck!"

Ye Haoran heard the voices of discussion. It was obvious that there was something else behind this case! False cases have existed since ancient times. What can I do with my current status? I can't control it! I am still a notorious traitor!

Ye Haoran slowly walked out of the crowd!

The next day, Mingxia Mountain!

The execution ground was on the south side of Mingxia Mountain, at the foot of a relatively flat mountain! In the winter season, the grass and trees were withered and yellow, and the whole place was desolate!

The weak Chen Qinglian was tied up and dragged over roughly!

"Chen Qinglian, what else do you have to say?" Chang Sun Rong asked hypocritically as the executioner!

The execution ground was surrounded by people who came to watch the execution, and they were pointing and talking!

"Silence! Arrest all those who are causing trouble!"

The captain who was maintaining order immediately drew out his long sword and patrolled back and forth! Hundreds of soldiers were ready for battle!

Chen Qinglian finally had a reaction, realizing the ending she was about to face! Her face was distorted, and her red eyes stared at Chang Sun Rong!

Chang Sun Rong turned his head to the side and looked at the time. It was just two quarters past noon!

"Come here! Execution!"

The executioner stepped forward and pointed the machete at Chen Qinglian's snow-white and thin neck!

Just as the blade was about to fall, a young man wearing a silver mask appeared at the execution ground!

"boom!"

He kicked the executioner away and pulled Chen Qinglian up!

"Can we still go?" Ye Haoran looked at those eyes crying blood!

Chen Qinglian was obviously stunned, and when she regained her senses, she nodded desperately!

Ye Haoran ignored the soldiers who had surrounded him and calmly untied the rope!

"Follow me! I'll take you away!"

"Woo!"

Chen Qinglian seemed to have grasped the last straw of life. Her instinct for survival made her extremely nervous and she grabbed Ye Haoran's clothes tightly!

"Who are you? You are so bold! You are committing a heinous crime by robbing the execution ground privately! Come here! Kill them without mercy!"

Chang Sun Rong was furious and yelled at the captain!

Dozens of palace soldiers, led by the captain, rushed towards Ye Haoran, only regretting why they did not bring bows and crossbows. It was not their fault, as they had lived in peace and comfort for so long. This was the first time they had seen a blatant execution ground being robbed!

Ye Haoran couldn't help but take action in the end. He couldn't bear to watch Chen Qinglian die unjustly!

He picked up a wooden stick and confronted dozens of soldiers. Just as the captain was about to give an order to rush forward, he suddenly heard Chang Sun Rong's voice:

"stop!"

At this moment, the soldiers realized that a vague figure had grabbed a steel knife and put it on Chang Sun Rong's neck! A lieutenant was lying next to him!

"Let us leave! Otherwise, you will die here!" Ye Haoran said in a cold tone! From what happened in the lobby yesterday, it can be seen that Chang Sun Rong is eager to kill people and silence them. He is definitely not a good person!

"Two young men! Calm down! I will let you go. We can discuss any conditions!"

Chang Sun Rong lost his arrogance and begged for mercy in panic! It's not worthwhile to sacrifice himself for a lowly girl!

"Very good, let them retreat ten miles, I won't hurt your life!" Ye Haoran pointed at the soldiers next to him!

"Didn't you fucking hear me? Get out! Get out of here!"

At once, more than a hundred soldiers retreated!

The crowd watching was at a loss for a moment and stood there in a daze!

Xiao Hao put a long knife on Changsun Rong's neck and came to Ye Haoran!

"Let's go!" Ye Haoran called out and took Chen Qinglian into the woods not far away!

"Brother, go first. I'll follow behind you!"

Xiao Hao didn't seem nervous at all, and his voice even revealed excitement!

"Be careful!" Ye Haoran warned and disappeared into the woods!

"Old man! You don't look like a good person. Did you kill that sister's family?"

Xiao Hao's childish voice came from behind, and Chang Sun Rong quickly knelt on the ground:

"Young man, please check carefully. This matter has nothing to do with me! I have an 80-year-old mother and a 3-year-old child. Please spare my life, spare my life!"

Chang Sun Rong knelt on the ground and kowtowed continuously!

"Master Changsun! Are you okay?"

When the captain came back, Ye Haoran and the other two were nowhere to be seen. Only the chief secretary was kowtowing there!

Chang Sun Rong turned his head carefully and looked behind him to make sure Xiao Hao had left!

"Fuck you! Where are they?" Chang Sun Rong jumped up and slapped the captain hard! He was no longer as cowardly as before!

The captain was speechless and dared not to talk back, so he could only bow his head and accept the beating!

"This person looks familiar!" Li Xian stood on the top of the mountain, leaning over and watching the farce below!

"The figure is similar! Impossible! He is already dead!" Li Xian shook his head! He put away his curiosity, but the corners of his mouth could not help but rise! He was inexplicably happy to see Chang Sun Rong being humiliated!

"Xiaohao, how are you?"

Ye Haoran and Chen Qinglian had just walked two miles and arrived deep in the forest when they saw Xiao Hao following them in a panic!

Ye Haoran alone definitely can't do it this time, so he can only call Xiao Hao who just transformed to help!

Everything is as planned, but the midday light is the nemesis of all spirits!

Xiao Hao endured the light and appeared, and his already formed body faded a lot!

"Brother! I'm fine! I'll be fine after a few days of rest!" Xiao Hao didn't care. He was more than happy to help his brother!
