The sky is clear in Yaozhou today. Because it rained last night, there is still a moist breath in the air.
The execution ground that used to be empty was now crowded with people, and most of the people showed expressions of excitement and anticipation.
"Is today really the day for Master Lin's execution?"
"Yes, I asked about it, today is the day. It's a good death. My neighbor's niece finally grew up. The little girl was as lovely as a green onion, but she died in the hands of this beast. Her mother was blinded by crying.
"
"Hasn't he harmed too many people? I just hate that the prefect is weak. Even if the evidence is conclusive, he doesn't dare to arrest him and put him in jail. Thanks to Princess Qionghua here, I will buy some firecrackers when I get back to celebrate today.
good days."
"Isn't Princess Qionghua afraid of the Lin family? The Lin family is the local snake here."
"Princess Qionghua is the niece of today's emperor. Her mother is the famous Princess Wei, and her father is Prince Rong. How can the Lin family compare with her? Princess Qionghua has such a noble status, but she is willing to stand up for us ordinary people. It's really
What a good person."
"I hope there will be more good nobles like Princess Qionghua."
In stark contrast to the mood of these people celebrating the New Year, the Lin family was plunged into a sea of sadness. Although Su Youning specially reserved a front row seat for the Lin family, it was obvious that none of the Lin family had any intention of watching.
. Onlookers watched their relatives being beheaded, and the people were still clapping and applauding. They did not have such a strong psychological endurance. Lin Congyan’s biological mother, Du Shi, began to shed tears from the morning, and her heart was cut by a knife. She asked: "Is this really true, sir?"
Aren’t you going to save Yan’er?”
Lin Yuzhi looked pained, "Those two princesses are waiting to find evidence against our family. If they take action, it will be like giving evidence of guilt to them, and our family will not end well by then."
After returning yesterday, he gave up on his son and eliminated some evidence from the past. Lin Congyan was not the only one in the Lin family who liked to break laws and disciplines. Others were more or less innocent, but fortunately most of them were
There was no life-threatening lawsuit, and the lowly common people were sent away with money.
Du Shi cried loudly, "My poor Yan'er, why are you so unlucky to meet that murderer Su Youning?"
She not only has Yan'er but also other children to consider, so no matter how sad she is, she can only accept this fact. The people Du Shi hates most at this moment are Su Yueling and her daughter, and then the despicable servants who lead their sons into evil.
Next, there is the old lady who dotes on her son too much. Not long after Yan'er was born, he was brought to the old lady. If the old lady hadn't doted on him, how could he have developed such a temperament?
Unfortunately, it's too late to regret now.
Lin Yuzhi looked at her painful expression and wished he could replace her with his own body. He held her hand and his expression turned gloomy, "If we wait for a while, the Yuan family will not be able to remain arrogant for the rest of their lives."
"When the eldest girl comes to the world, she will be able to avenge Yan'er." The eldest girl and Yan'er had such a good relationship, how could Yan'er die so tragically?
As if grasping a life-saving straw, Du Shi murmured: "Yes, there is also a big girl."
…
Although the Lin family didn't have to come to watch the ceremony, there was one person who was forced to be brought here even if they didn't want to come. That was Old Mrs. Lin who was imprisoned yesterday for obstructing official duties.
Su Yueling always kept her word, and she really prepared the best place for Mrs. Lin to watch the ceremony.
Before the execution, Old Mrs. Lin was escorted to that position. Her tears were filled with tears and she felt what heart-breaking pain was. It was too painful to watch her beloved grandson embark on the road to destruction.
Because Mrs. Lin lived in seclusion, the people around her did not recognize her identity. Some people asked her, "Did Mrs. Lin also come to see the execution of the criminal Lin Congyan? Did you also have relatives who were killed by him?"
"Old madam, don't cry. This is a good thing. If the sky hadn't had eyes, Lin Congyan would have harmed many people."
Their hatred for Lin Congyan was palpable and undisguised. Their words were like sharp knives piercing Mrs. Lin's heart. She didn't expect that so many people were looking forward to Congyan's death. Congyan was still a child.
These common people are so cruel, as expected
Things that cannot be put on the table.
"Yes, but he is still a child. He is not even married yet, and he does not even have any children."
Because Lin Congyan was her most beloved grandson, Mrs. Lin was very picky about the identity of her grandson-in-law. The noble ladies of Yaozhou looked around and felt that they were not worthy of her grandson. By the time the granddaughter she raised personally became a prince,
As a concubine, she had better discernment. When Su Youning first came, Mrs. Lin also thought that maybe she could let her grandson become the master. However, Su Youning's tough temper quickly scared her away, so the marriage never happened.
Drag until now.
Mrs. Lin felt even more sad when she thought that her beloved grandson might not have anyone to pay homage to her in the future.
However, her uncontrollable sadness could not move others at all.
The people around him were all nauseated by these words, "He is already twenty years old, how can he be younger?"
"The youngest of the people he killed was only eight years old! How could he be so capable at eight years old? It would be easier for such an inhuman beast to behead him, so he should be executed in Lingchi!"
"What is your relationship with Lin Congyan? You actually said good things to him? Because the person who died was not your relative, right?"
Everyone couldn't help but glare at Old Mrs. Lin.
Old Mrs. Lin, who was originally crying, suddenly had a bad premonition when she was bathed in everyone's eyes that seemed to be eating people. Her consciousness told her that if these people knew that she was Congyan's grandmother, it would only
I'm afraid she won't be able to please her.
Obviously, the Lin family also gave money to compensate those families, and the most they even gave was two thousand taels. This is money they will never earn in their lifetime, so why should they be angry?
Old Mrs. Lin didn't dare to say it, Su Youning's people wouldn't help her hide it, so people in the crowd deliberately shouted loudly.
"I recognized her. She is Lin Congyan's grandmother, the old lady of the Lin family, and Lin Congyan's biggest supporter."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes felt like they were on fire. It turned out that this was Lin Congyan's grandmother. No wonder she was so focused on trying to excuse Lin Congyan, and after hearing what she just said, she didn't repent, but felt aggrieved.
Everyone was immediately furious and said, "Beat her to death!"
"Kill her!"
"She is also an accomplice!"
Because the time had not yet come, Lin Congyan had not yet been sent to the execution ground, so everyone temporarily transferred their anger to Old Mrs. Lin. They were so jealous that they wanted to eat her flesh and drink her blood.
The rising and falling sounds converged into a torrent, like rumbling thunder, which made Old Mrs. Lin's body tremble constantly. At this time, she could no longer care about being sad for her grandson, but began to be afraid.
