next day

The people gathered in front of Caishikou to watch the excitement.

Yaji was tied and kneeling in the middle, with her name and crime written on the death sign behind her.

The executioner beside him was ready, and the big knife in his hand reflected the clear faces of the people around him.

"I never thought that a famous Beijing actress would be a serial killer."

"Kill her, this damn bitch!" Someone threw rotten vegetable leaves at the prisoner.

The emotional person was Zhang Suwan's mother, the wife of the Minister of Personnel.

As she roared, others threw mud, stones and rotten vegetable leaves at the prisoners.

"Kill her, kill her..."

Some of them were truly angry at the murderer, while others were there just to watch the fun, because after all, the person Yaji killed was not a good person.

Needless to say, Wang Xian is a recognized bully in the capital.

The other two were also Wang Xian's lackeys. Birds of a feather flock together, so their deaths are not a pity.

There is also Zhang Suwan, who is usually a cunning, mean and arrogant person.

But they don’t know that no matter how unruly and arrogant a woman is, she will turn into a sweet-talking flower when she meets the man she loves.

On the stage, the supervising official was Shi Ce, the Junior Official of the Dali Temple. Someone behind him reminded him, "Sir, the time is up."

Shi Ce nodded, pulled out the token, and threw it forward, "Execute!"

The executioner pulled out the sign on the prisoner's back, took the water handed to him by the person next to him, took a big gulp, and then sprayed it on the sword.

The tense atmosphere instantly shocked the whole audience.

The sun was at its highest point, and the executioner raised his sword. The light reflected from the blade made the people around him subconsciously cover their eyes.

Just when everyone thought that Yaji was about to be killed on the spot, a quarrel was heard, and a large blade in the executioner's hand collided with a sharp blade.

There was a sound of horse hooves.

I saw a man riding a horse from the outskirts of the crowd and rushing straight to the execution platform. He moved so fast that he had no intention of stopping or slowing down.

The people were terribly frightened. If they were trampled by the horses' hooves, life or death would be the matter in an instant.

Qin Changge waved his hand in the dark, and the Dali Temple officials hurried out to stop it to avoid hurting innocent people.

At this moment, Wudong took advantage of the chaos, abandoned his horse and flew to the side of the woman on the execution platform.

"Yaji, follow me!"

Just when he was about to cut the rope on Yaji, he saw "Yaji" giving him a strange smile.

Wudong's heart sank, he fell into a trap!

He was furious and was about to cut the man's neck with the dagger in his hand, but he didn't know that the other party seemed to have known his next move, and a puff of smoke rushed out of the man's body.

Wudong was not careful and inhaled the smoke.

The man shook himself and the rope slipped off his body.

Many yamen runners and soldiers appeared around him, including those from the Dali Temple and those sent by the General's Mansion to help.

"Damn it, you actually led me into a trap." He gathered his inner strength and tried to break out of the encirclement.

But it was too late after all. The other side had more people and more strength, and they were all strong men. Wudong found it particularly difficult to deal with them.

He thought he was very skilled in martial arts, but his two hands were no match for four punches. He also didn't know what the smoke just now was, and he always felt a little powerless.

It didn't take long for him to be captured alive.

He struggled hard, but it was no use. He was tied up and a death card was inserted behind his back.

This time it was prepared for him.

He knew that today's execution would be dangerous, but he had already made plans for the worst, which was to die with Yaji.

But they actually used a trick to steal the dragon and switch the phoenix.

At this time, the man sitting on the execution platform had turned into Qin Changge, dressed in a red official robe, and the woman next to him, dressed in a yamen servant's uniform, was none other than Hua Jianli.

The prisoner who was mistaken for Yaji just now had his skin torn off in public, revealing his true face. It turned out that he was Qingfeng, a close confidant of Qin Changge. Qingfeng shook off the stinking rotten vegetable leaves on his body in disgust. These people are too bitter and vengeful!

Although Miss Seven's plan was good, he suffered.

Hua Jianli stuck out her tongue at her. It was she who proposed today's plan, and she was the one who gave him the poison powder, but the anger of the crowd was beyond her expectations.

When the people came to their senses, they discovered that in the blink of an eye, not only the executioner had changed, but also the death row prisoner.

Qin Changge looked at Wu Dong who was kneeling on the ground calmly: "It's really not easy to catch you."

"Sir, what does this mean?" Wudong pretended to be confused.

Qin Changge didn't care about him and nodded to Shi Ce. Shi Ce took the confession from his master and began to read, "The criminal Wu Dong is the real murderer of Zhang Suwan. He later brutally killed Wang Xian, Li Gou, Sun Bing and others. After investigation, the evidence is conclusive... Wu Dong, you can plead guilty!"

The people around were in an uproar. What was going on?

"Isn't the criminal Yaji? How come this man became the criminal?"

"Could he be Yaji's accomplice..."

"That must be it. How could a woman like Yaji be so cruel? This ugly man must have forced her to do that."

"Isn't this man the servant beside Yaji?" Someone recognized Wudong.

"Yes, yes, yes. The things we gave to Miss Yaji last time were taken away by him." said a man.

"Could it be that he used Yaji's name to kill people?" someone speculated.

In the crowd, the excited lady went crazy again, throwing rotten eggs at Wudong one by one, "Damn it, tell me, what did my daughter do to deserve your brutal murder?"

Wudong looked at the sticky eggs on his body with disgust in his eyes.

He turned his head, his eyes revealing a fierce and ferocious look, "You are Zhang Suwan's mother. As expected, like mother, like daughter. Your daughter is not a good person either."

"Shut up, shut up, you dare to destroy my daughter's reputation when you are about to die, go to hell, go to hell!"

The lady struggled to step forward and wanted to kill the murderer with her own hands, but was stopped by the maid beside her, "Madam, please be careful, that is a murderer."

Mrs. Zhang was relentless. "Damn it, tell me, what on earth did my daughter do to you that made you want to do such a cruel thing to her? Tell me, tell me..."

Madam Zhang threw a rotten egg at every word Wu Dong said, which made Wu Dong furious.

Hua Jianli asked Qin Changge, "Do you want to stop it?"

She was afraid that Wudong would say something shocking and Mrs. Zhang would not be able to accept it.

Qin Changge shook his head, "Just wait and see."

He needs Wudong's testimony to convict him.

"But……"

"Hua Jianli, sometimes, you shouldn't be so soft-hearted." Qin Changge reminded, and there was already some weight in his words.

"Well, I see."
