The people around him echoed this and looked at the man with disgust.

The man was so ashamed that he ran away with his partner.

The county residents who stayed behind felt relieved. They had just sent away a corrupt official, so they naturally hoped that this one would be a good official.

Otherwise, how can we live like this?

After the people dispersed, Song Jinshu felt guilty and did not leave immediately. Instead, he stayed to help Lu Ruoyu organize the case files.

Lu Ruoyu looked at the documents that became more and more messy as he sorted them out, feeling helpless. He gently took the things from Song Jinshu's hand.

"Sir, these subordinates will do it. You are tired, so you can go back and rest. I will come to discuss the river dam matter with you later."

The issue of the river dam cannot be delayed any longer, otherwise something big will definitely happen!

Song Jinshu didn't realize she was being disdained. She continued to help him in a serious manner, looking up at him with a smile: "County Magistrate Lu, can I ask a favor of you?"

Looking at the woman in front of him with a sincere smile, Lu Ruoyu was distracted. After a while, he replied, "Your Excellency is too polite. If I can do it, I will do my best."

Unexpectedly, the woman became shy. He paused, did not ask any further questions, and lowered his head to continue organizing the information.

Song Jinshu swallowed his saliva and said flatteringly, "County Magistrate Lu! I would like to ask you to carry out the beheading of Li San on my behalf in three days."

Logically speaking, these things should have been done by her as the county magistrate, but she was afraid!

In her previous life, she arrived at the execution ground as soon as she came here, and was beheaded in place of the original owner, which made her unable to sleep well at night for several days.

Now she is very resistant and resists everything about beheading.

Lu Ruoyu paused and looked at her in surprise, but after thinking about it, she could understand.

After all, the adult is a woman, so it is understandable that she would be afraid.

only…

"Sir, is this against the rules?"

In the officialdom, doing things without going through the boss's instructions is a big taboo in the workplace. It is no different from shitting and peeing on the boss's head.

Song Jinshu clapped his hands nonchalantly. "Oh! It's just a small matter, I don't care. Besides, I asked you to do this, how could I blame you?"

Lu Ruoyu thought about it and nodded in agreement.

Having achieved her goal, Song Jinshu felt a little relieved. Even though she might lose her head in half a year, it didn't mean she wanted to see what would happen to her now!

"Thank you very much! I'll be leaving now. County Magistrate Lu, you can go ahead and do your work first! You can leave after you're done!"

She turned and left without hesitation, leaving behind the case file that she had messed up.

Lu Ruoyu shook her head helplessly and continued to tidy up resignedly.

In the dungeon, Master Li San was tortured into a bloody man, but he was still alive.

The jailers all know their limits. No matter how they torture people, no one will be killed in their hands.

"Hey! Isn't this our arrogant and majestic Mr. Li San? How come you become mute after coming to visit me?"

One of the jailers obviously had a grudge against Mr. Li Sanye, and the hatred and disgust in his eyes could not be concealed at all.

His friend next to him warned him: "Don't go too far! If you kill someone, you'll be punished!"

The jailer waved his hands impatiently, gritted his teeth, and whipped Mr. Li Sanye.

He hated it! His poor sister was tortured to death by this beast.

When he first came to work at the county government office, his sister came to bring him food and met Li San. As a result, his sister...

Thinking of his poor sister, he increased his strength and hit Mr. Li San hard several times.

On the other side, Wang Laoer returned to Wangjia Village with good news.

As soon as he arrived at the village entrance, the villagers surrounded him and asked, "Wang Lao Er, what's going on? What did the adults say about Mr. Li Sanye?"

"Yes! Wang Laoer, tell us quickly!"

Wang Laoer's tense face collapsed at this moment. He couldn't control his tears and fell down, scaring the villagers and making them at a loss.

The soft-hearted villagers, although they didn't know what the outcome would be, cried with Wang Laoer when they saw his expression.

"Wang Lao Er! Forget it! We are just ordinary people. We can't compare to those officials and the rich! From now on, you should be filial to your parents and don't think about revenge."

Because Wang Laoer kept crying, the villagers misunderstood what he meant.

Wang Lao Er calmed down, shook his head and explained, "That's not the case, Second Uncle! I'm just too happy!"

"Lord Song is a good official! He didn't accept Mr. Li's banknotes, but sentenced him to death immediately. He will be beheaded in front of him at noon three days later!"

Wangjia Village was in an uproar instantly. The news spread to every household and everyone applauded with joy.

Because everyone in the surrounding area was a relative, within half a day, people in several surrounding villages knew about it.

Everyone congratulated Mr. Li Sanye on being beheaded, and at the same time began to change their minds about Song Jinshu.

Return to the backyard of the county government office.

Song Jinshu lay in the recliner, studying the law. She wanted to study it thoroughly to see if there was any possibility of saving herself after she had embezzled 100,000 taels.

On the contrary, no matter how she looked at it or turned it, the result was the same!

Lose your head!

Thinking of this, she cursed the original owner again in pain. She didn't enjoy any benefits, but had to bear all the bad things.

My life is miserable!

Just as she was feeling sorry for herself, Lu Ruoyu came to the backyard looking for her.

"Sir, are you free? I have summoned Shi Zhubu to discuss the dam construction."

Song Jinshu jumped up instantly, turned to look at Lu Ruoyu and nodded: "Let's go!"

Lu Ruoyu was stunned for a moment, looking at her receding figure, and touched his nose unconsciously.

He thought he had to coax her for a while!

Could it be that the adult’s fever hasn’t completely subsided yet?

Thinking of the curses he secretly said two days ago, Lu Ruoyu's brows never relaxed, and her heart was filled with guilt.

Seeing him still standing there in a daze, Song Jinshu called out in confusion, "County Magistrate Lu? Are you in a hurry to pee? The toilet is on the left, go straight ahead, it's the one at the back!"

Hurry up! Don't delay your work!"

When she shouted this, the servants all looked at the two of them strangely.

Lu Ruoyu lost her balance and almost fell to the ground. How could she be so... so... how could she say such words so openly?

Don't listen to anything inappropriate!

In order to prevent her from saying any more nonsense, Lu Ruoyu took a few quick steps and caught up with her.

"Don't hold it in if you have to! It might cause you some health problems."

Lu Ruoyu: “…?!”

"Hey! County Magistrate Lu, why did you suddenly look so grim? Are you sick?"

Looking at Lu Ruoyu's flushed face, Song Jinshu became anxious. Could he have recovered at any time, but at this critical moment?

She was still counting on him to help her supervise the beheading.

Lu Ruoyu suppressed his anger and said through gritted teeth, "I'm fine! I'm sure Master Shi has been waiting for a long time. Sir, let's go over there quickly!"

"Are you really okay?" Song Jinshu continued to ask worriedly. Seeing his ashen face, she became even more worried.

"I'm really fine!"

"Uh… okay!"
