The daughter of the prime minister died tragically and was reborn to kill people everywhere
Chapter 13: The Punishment
Chu Lier had just breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately raised her voice again.
"Brother Jun Sheng."
Chu Lier's face turned pale, and she was about to hide behind Mu Junsheng, looking at him with her beautiful eyes as clear as autumn water.
If it were in the past, Mu Junsheng would have protected the person behind him without saying a word.
But now Chu Li'er not only had the greasy smell of the old maid, but also the smell of pig manure that had just stained her body. As she approached, the smell went straight into Mu Junsheng's nostrils, making him want to vomit.
"Don't come here."
Seeing that Chu Li'er was about to pounce on him, Mu Junsheng quickly raised his hand to stop her.
Chu Li'er's face was full of disbelief, and while she was stunned, two people came forward and dragged her over.
As for the smell on her body, it's a joke that she is a villager used to doing farm work, so what's a little smell of pig manure?
Chu Lier was pulled aside and beaten with a stick. The village chief looked at Shen Qianjiao and others and said.
"We have something to deal with in our village, so we won't keep you here any longer. Just take the silver and leave."
Shen Qianjiao still wanted to bargain, but seeing that they meant to beat her, she didn't dare to say anything about having no money.
He reached out and took out the purse he was carrying, and pulled out two thousand taels of silver from it. He didn't have any more.
Shen Qianjiao had no choice but to turn around and get back on the carriage. She didn't know how she coaxed a thousand taels out of Mu Mingzhu.
He added the two people's jewelry together and found that the total was still a little short of five thousand taels.
Shen Qianjiao originally thought that this was enough, so she handed all of this over to the village chief.
The village chief saw that those things were obviously not enough, so he turned his gaze to Mu Junsheng.
"Does the remaining eldest son want to write an IOU?"
Mu Junsheng never expected that they would be so unreasonable.
There was no way he would write this IOU, otherwise it would become a handle against him. He could only grit his teeth and say to the servant beside him.
"How much is left?"
Ping An accepted his fate and went forward to check with the village chief.
The total value of those silver notes and jewelry was four thousand three hundred taels, seven hundred taels short of five thousand taels.
Of course, the jewellery of Shen Qianjiao and Mu Mingzhu must be worth more than that little silver. When they bought them, they were in short supply, but now they can only be sold at a discount as ordinary gold.
Shen Qianjiao gritted her teeth, unwillingly, but there was nothing she could do.
The remaining seven hundred taels were paid by Mu Junsheng, but he was used to spending lavishly when he was outside, and he took a lot of silver with him. He spent thirty thousand taels just to redeem Chu Lier.
Now, seeing that they were almost reaching the capital, how could he leave so much money behind?
Even if he shook out all the valuables on his body, he would only have more than five hundred taels, still more than one hundred taels short.
Seeing this, Shen Qianjiao turned her attention to Mu Yunyao.
If she had refused to take the two thousand taels before, and now it was only a hundred or so taels, if Mu Yunyao was still indifferent, she would definitely complain to the Prime Minister when she returned.
But before she could open her mouth, the village chief's faint voice sounded from behind her.
"Well, it seems you have learned your lesson. I, the village chief, will forgive you the remaining hundred taels of silver. Take the man away now."
Shen Qianjiao should have been happy to hear that she could leave, but for some reason she couldn't be happy at this moment.
Mu Junsheng was obviously unwilling to give in, and said to the village chief, "You have taken all the money, shouldn't you let him go?"
Chu Li'er was still in their hands. While they were collecting the silver, she had already been beaten seven or eight times.
From crying and wailing at the beginning, now there are only intermittent sobs.
I'm afraid if she continues to be beaten like this, she won't be able to survive those thirty boards.
The village chief glanced at him coldly and said, "Go, no one will stop you."
As he said this, he waved his hand and asked the villagers to disperse and make way for them.
Upon seeing this, Shen Qianjiao ordered people to force Mu Junsheng into the car first, but Mu Junsheng continued to stare at the village chief like a poisonous snake.
"Then shouldn't my people be returned to me?"
Chu Li'er had fainted over there. A woman grabbed her hair and slapped her twice to wake her up.
The first thing she did when she woke up was to ask Mu Junsheng for help.
"Brother Jun Sheng..."
Before she could finish her words, another board fell on her.
"what……"
As she cried out in pain, Mu Junsheng's face became even uglier. This was not a hit on Chu Lier, it was clearly a slap on his face.
"village head……"
Mu Junsheng's face looked grim, and he gritted his teeth with every word.
"Chu Li'er is from our village. If she violated the village rules, she will be dealt with according to the village rules. You don't need to worry about it, young master."
After saying this, he bowed in the direction of Mu Junsheng.
"It's easy to leave, but I won't send you off."
Now that they have offended someone, the village chief knows that it is useless to be humble to him now. Instead, it may make him feel that they are easy to control and he will retaliate against them even more unscrupulously.
"How can you put down the fence?"
Mu Junsheng secretly hated this old man for being so stubborn, but he also knew that it would not be easy to get the person from him.
The village chief ignored him and said to the villagers, "Don't you have anything to do? Why are you dawdling? Finish the fight quickly and hang them on the tree."
As he finished speaking, the people who were attacking him moved faster and harder. After two more blows, Chu Li could no longer scream.
Mu Junsheng's eyes were red with anger as he watched this scene. He remembered that it was Mu Yunyao's girl who got off the car just now, which made the village chief change his mind and not directly drown Chu Lier in the pond.
He immediately turned his gaze to Qingyun and said, "Go and rescue that person."
Qingyun rolled her eyes at him and said, "I am not a servant of the Prime Minister's Mansion. It is not my turn to be ordered around by the eldest master."
As she said that, she jumped onto Mu Yunyao's carriage. Mu Junsheng saw that she had good kung fu and could easily intimidate these people, but she was unwilling to help him. His hatred for Mu Yunyao increased a little more.
At the beginning, I shouldn't have been soft-hearted and just let that dead girl be taken away. If I had known this would happen, I should have strangled her to death.
Mu Yunyao naturally had no idea what he was thinking, and she spoke slowly after feeling the slight vibration of the carriage.
"Second Madam, since the eldest master has been picked up, shouldn't we go back? If we are any later, the city gates will probably be closed."
Shen Qianjiao was a little annoyed when she heard the voice, but when she heard that the city gate was about to close, she immediately looked up at the sky.
"Jun Sheng, how about we go back first, and when we get back to the capital, we can take your father's letter to Jingzhao Prefecture and ask the people of Jingzhao Prefecture to accompany you to rescue people?"
Mu Junsheng felt complicated, but still shook his head vigorously.
What happened today must not be known to anyone except those here.
He couldn't ask the Jingzhao Prefecture for help, otherwise, if someone from the government took action, his reputation would be ruined.
As for the people here, he will find a way to deal with them when he returns.
The dead tell no secrets.
Mu Junsheng's eyes were cold, but he still shook his head and said to Shen Qianjiao.
"Mother, if we leave, Li'er won't survive more than thirty beatings. She saved my life, I can't just leave her alone."
