The person was taken away.

Xie Linghe was still closely following the progress of the case, hoping that Sun Jiye would give Xie Lingdi away.

pity.

In the end, she was disappointed.

After arresting the Sun family, the county magistrate sent people to investigate the moldy rice issue throughout the county. In the end, it was discovered that more than ten grain shops had mixed in moldy rice.

Under inquiry.

I learned that they were all bought from the same person.

The authorities immediately went to arrest the man, but when they arrived, he had already committed suicide out of fear of punishment.

Simultaneously.

He left behind a suicide note, confessing what he had done.

The case is closed.

More than a dozen grain shops in the county paid compensation to settle the matter. Moldy rice was found in the Sun family's cellar, and he was labeled an accomplice.

Daqi Law stipulates.

Those who know that fake goods are being sold will destroy them on their own will be punished with ten strokes of the cane, and those who do not will be punished with a hundred strokes of the cane. Because fake food endangers life, the punishment may be exile at the least and beheading at the worst. In serious cases, the whole family will be exterminated.

In the case of the Sun family, although no one was killed because the crime was discovered in time, their intentions were still despicable. In summary, the county magistrate sentenced the Sun family's property to be confiscated and the entire family to be sent to a salt mine to dig salt for a period of ten years.

In this regard.

The people gathered in response.

……

The day of serving sentence.

The common people gathered around to watch spontaneously.

Xie Linghe and his family all came over. What could be more satisfying than seeing his enemy meet a miserable end in person?

Sun Jiye and five other men were tied together with ropes and walked on the street in numbness and despair.

I don't know who spoke first.

"He who has a black heart is not a human being."

Everyone shouted and threw rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves at them.

"brute."

"kill him."

"..."

Xie Zhongji and the other two raised their fists and shouted, "Serves them right! Beat them to death, beat them to death!"

Xie Boyuan looked at them indifferently.

Xie Linghe recalled everything that Xie Lingfen had experienced, slowly exhaled, and felt a little more relaxed.

Xie Lingfen's eyes were filled with complex emotions: joy, reluctance, and relief...

opposite.

Sun Shaozu raised his head as if he sensed something.

The two looked at each other.

Sun Shaozu's eyes were filled with regret. He stretched out his hand towards her, his mouth moving as if he wanted to say something: "..."

Xie Lingfen's heart skipped a beat.

She subconsciously covered her daughter's face to prevent her from seeing her shameful biological father.

Although, Nini still doesn’t understand.

See this.

Sun Shaozu's face turned pale and he lowered his head dejectedly.

This scene.

It also caught Xie Lingyu's attention.

However, she was no longer jealous at this moment. Instead, she was grasping at a lifeline: "Lingfen, Lingfen, for the sake of our cousins, save me, save me, I know nothing, I am innocent...ah!"

The officer whipped her.

Xie Lingyu screamed, but didn't dare to shout anymore. He stared at Xie Lingfen stubbornly.

Xie Lingfen subconsciously took a step back.

Xie Linghe stood in front of her, staring at her coldly. Their eyes met, and he said silently, "Your parents have given up on you. Why do you think we would repay evil with kindness?"

Xie Lingyu was at a loss.

what?

What did you say?

Her mind was about to explode, and she wanted to rush over to question Xie Linghe, but her instinct to survive stopped her.

How to do?

She doesn't want to go to the salt mines.

Damn Sun Shaozu, if you want to die, don’t drag her with you.

Why not divorce?

Why force her to suffer together!!!

……

In a corner where no one is paying attention.

Xie Lingdi stood quietly, looking at Sun Jiye and his group.

Middle of the street.

Sun Jiye looked in a disarray, but his eyes kept moving around as if he was looking for someone.

Sudden.

He looked towards the corner.

Xie Lingdi met his eyes and nodded to him imperceptibly.

A look of joy flashed in Sun Jiye's eyes.

Xie Lingdi turned around with a hint of sarcasm on her lips: How stupid!

Here.

Xie Linghe accidentally noticed Sun Jiye's abnormality and subconsciously looked in the direction of his gaze, but only saw half of his back.

This is enough.

Thank you Lingdi!

Is she here too?

……

After Sun Jiye and his companions walked away, the crowd gradually dispersed.

Xie Linghe said, "It's not easy to come to the county. Let's take a good look around and have lunch at the restaurant to celebrate."

"Wow!"

"Great!"

"Today is the market day, and I want to go see the circus."

"I want to listen to storytelling."

"..."

……

On the Sun family's side.

After leaving the city, we walked for a whole night under the escort of the officials, and only got a chance to rest late at night.

at this time.

In the mountains.

The two officers lit a fire and sat down to talk among themselves over some meat and dry biscuits.

"Damn it! Those people in the government office bully people like us who have nothing to do with us, and leave all the dirty work to us."

"Isn't it? It takes ten days to go to the salt mine and back, all on foot, and it's hot."

"..."

The two men became more and more indignant as they talked.

The five members of the Sun family had no fire, and the forest was so cold at night that they were shivering, but they didn't dare to make a sound and huddled together in fear.

this day.

As long as they walked slowly, the two officers would whip them mercilessly, which scared them.

at last.

Sun Rou couldn't help crying: "Wuwuwu..."

This cry.

Li also started crying.

Xie Lingyu had already collapsed and started crying.

Sun Shaozu was not a capable person to begin with. When he saw his mother and sister crying, he started crying too.

"Woooooooo..."

"Ohh Ohh ohh……"

In the deep forest, the whimpering sound seemed very strange and terrifying.

By the fire.

The two officers' faces froze.

Then, he angrily shouted: "You want to die? Shut the fuck up!"

As soon as these words came out.

Sun Rou and the others subconsciously covered their mouths.

Sun Jiye glanced at the officials with a sinister look and whispered to them, "Stop crying."

"Someone will come to rescue us."

Hear the words.

Sun Rou and the other three were shocked. The next moment, hope shone in their eyes and they asked urgently:

"really?"

"Dad, who will come to save us?"

"Yeah~"

"..."

Sun Jiye smiled: "Of course it's true..."

The words were not finished.

Two officers not far away suddenly stood up, drew their swords and looked at the darkness vigilantly.

Sun Jiye and the other four looked over in surprise.

I saw.

Four or five men in black slowly walked out of the darkness, with many shadows standing vaguely behind them.

The fat officer's expression changed drastically: "Who are you?"

The thin official said sternly but weakly: "We are from the imperial court. If you don't want to cause trouble, get out of here!"

"Ah."

The leading man in black sneered and waved his hand, and the other men in black surrounded the two officers.

No suspense.

In less than half a minute, the two officers died one after another.

The forest became quiet.

I don't know when the birdsong and insects chirping disappeared.

Sun Jiye and the other four huddled together, looking at the group of men in black in horror.

The leading man in black looked over.

Sun Jiye mustered up the courage to speak: "Are you the person Xie Lingdi called to rescue us?"

Mention the three words Xie Lingdi.

Xie Lingyu was startled at first, then overjoyed: "I'm Xie Lingdi's eldest sister. Take me back quickly, and I'll definitely take credit for it."

The man in black ignored her, walked closer, and suddenly chuckled: "Heh."

Sun Jiye's face changed drastically.

"Y-You're not here to save me... Hurry! Go!"
