Li Guoan looked away, straightened his robe, and didn't look at her.

When Ma Chengguo saw Li Guoan's attitude, he understood.

She sneered at herself, thinking that she was an abandoned pawn.

His eyes were filled with resentment and hatred.

She was asked to do all the dirty and tedious things, but now he doesn't care about her anymore.

Just throw it away after use, so clean and neat!

A real turtle eats turtles without any regard for his relatives!

Unfortunately, I miscalculated. She is not someone who can be easily dismissed.

Even if I die, I have to take a few people with me so that I won’t be alone on the road to the underworld.

“Your Highness, I admit everything you said, I deserve it.

But I'm not the only one who committed those crimes!

Why do you only convict me?"

Ma Chengguo gave up and gave Li Guoan a provocative smile.

There's no way you can get rid of me. I'll drag you down with me!

"Oh? Ma Daren, words are not enough, everything needs evidence!

As long as you can produce evidence to identify them now, I will not let any of them go!!!"

Wan Qingyan spread the word with a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

She hopes Ma Chengguo can come up with some useful evidence to identify the perpetrator.

The dogs bit each other and both were covered in fur. She just had to wait and watch the show.

These corrupt officials are so disgusting to look at. I really want to kill them all without leaving a single one alive.

Ma Chengguo smiled confidently and was about to continue to reveal shocking news.

Li Chengguo suddenly interrupted with a meaningful smile.

"Master Ma, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say anything you want.

How can you make random claims about something that has no basis or evidence?

Although your husband betrayed you and you were so sad that you talked nonsense, I can understand.

But your elderly parents and hungry children did not betray you.

Even if you have committed a capital crime, they still have to live well.

Don't worry, I will take good care of your parents and children after you leave."

Li Guoan spoke in a righteous manner, but his words were full of threats.

When Ma Chengguo heard this, he frowned and turned pale with fear.

She understood the threat in the words.

If she talks nonsense, her whole family will suffer.

“Sir Li, are you trying to intimidate Sir Ma by saying this?

How come you are the only one who can take care of Mr. Ma’s parents and children?

Can I, too, or are you hiding Ma's parents and children as bargaining chips?"

Wan Qingyan asked in a cold voice, his eyes as sharp as an eagle.

With a cold look in his eyes, he stared closely at Li Guoan's every move.

This time she suffered from the lack of information and was not fully prepared.

At first, she planned to deal with Ma Chengguo alone to show her power.

This is why Shi Ming only brought Ma Chengguo's husband and children.

The rest of the people in the Ma Mansion were to stay where they were.

Unexpectedly, Ma Chengguo’s husband told her about the secret letter.

This made her want to move Li Guoan now.

Unexpectedly, Li Guoan was so alert and burned the secret letter in advance.

He also kidnapped the rest of the people in the Ma Mansion and used them as bargaining chips to threaten Ma Chengguo.

She was caught off guard.

Every step is slow, and we miss the opportunity.

"Your Highness, please don't speak nonsense without evidence.

I am just giving you a kind reminder, Lord Ma.

How can I say that this is a threat? If you don't believe me, you can ask Lord Ma.

Let her speak for herself, was what I just said a threat?"

Li Guoan was not at all flustered and responded calmly with a slight smile on his face.

She lifted her sleeve, revealing a vermilion ring.

He glanced at Ma Chengguo and leisurely turned the ring twice.

Ma Chengguo's heart sank as soon as he took a look at the ring.

She placed this ring in the drawer of the dark room on purpose.

But now it was on Li Guoan's hand, and she knew that the secret letter was gone.

Losing the secret letter is like losing your life-saving chip.

Without physical evidence, she cannot convict Li Guoan based on her words alone.

What's more, the family is still in Li Guoan's hands.

This time it's a dead end, there's no choice!

“Your Highness, Lady Li has no intention of threatening me. She is a good person and an honest official.

I am a corrupt official. I am willing to plead guilty and leave it to Your Highness to deal with me!"

Ma Chengguo accepted his fate and mocked Li Guoan's last sentence with gritted teeth.

Wan Qingyan sighed lightly. Ma Chengguo was really a widow who had lost her son. There was no hope for her.

"Ma Chengguo, as an official appointed by the imperial court, you don't want to benefit the people and be a good official.

He dared to embezzle and accept bribes, oppress the people, and take human lives.

Beating her husband, harming good men, and hindering the court from providing disaster relief...

The crimes you have committed are too numerous to list. Your Highness sentences you to death and gives you the punishment of combing your hair.

And immediately rush to the execution ground, and the execution will be carried out!"

Wan Qingyan loudly pronounced the verdict on Ma Chengguo's crimes, his eyes as sharp as a knife.

Li Guoan and his team breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the verdict.

When Ma Chengguo heard about the punishment of combing and washing, he was so scared that he peed his pants on the spot, kowtowed and cried for mercy.

"Please, Your Highness, grant me the beheading, beheading, please..."

Ma Chengguo was so frightened that his face turned hideous and his speech became incoherent.

"Take him away and take him to the execution ground!"

Wan Qingyan sneered and felt funny in his heart.

This Ma Chengguo is really interesting. He even dreamed that he could choose criminal law. What's he doing there?!

She would never let Ma Chengguo die easily.

"Yes, Your Highness."

The soldiers obeyed the order respectfully and carried Ma Chengguo to the execution ground.

"Master Li, don't you want to go and take a look together?"

Wan Qingyan stood up and walked to Li Guoan, smiling.

"Of course I have to go. Such a scum of the officialdom deserves death."

Li Guoan was filled with righteous indignation, his eyes full of indignation.

"Then let's go together and witness what happens to corrupt officials in the end!"

As Wan Qingyan spoke, he reached out and touched Li Guoan's official hat.

Li Guoan was stunned and stepped back subconsciously, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"Master Li, don't be nervous. Your official hat is tilted. I'll straighten it for you."

Wan Qingyan pressed Li Guoan's shoulders hard and straightened his official hat.

"It doesn't matter if the official hat is crooked, it can be straightened.

This heart is going astray, and it’s hard to straighten it out!”

Wan Qingyan said this, which was very meaningful.

He patted Li Guoan on the shoulder, smiled slyly, and walked out of the yamen.

Li Guoan looked at Wan Qingyan's figure, silently clenched his fists and snorted coldly.

The victims also rushed to the execution ground in Caishikou to watch the excitement.

Many of them know what kind of person Ma Chengguo is.

Her reputation in Qingzhou is like that of a dung beetle wearing a mask, so shameless and stinky.

Many people have suffered from her and been beaten by her, and saw her end up like this.

I was so happy in my heart. Good deeds will be rewarded, and evil deeds will be punished.

Not not reporting, time is not here!

Wan Qingyan stood on the execution platform, looking at the huge crowd of disaster victims below.

Loudly announced Ma Chengguo's crimes and her punishment.

The victims applauded enthusiastically and burst into loud cheers.

"Your Excellency is wise. All corrupt officials should be cut into pieces..."

Seeing that the mood was almost built up, Wan Qingyan shouted solemnly.

"Ma Chengguo is the first, but he will definitely not be the last.

All corrupt officials deserve to die, Qingzhou is about to change..."
