At this time, the executioner shouted loudly from outside: "The time has come for execution."
The executioner took a sip of wine, then raised the knife in his hand. He raised the knife and struck it down. The matter of the second prince's rebellion was completely put to rest.
The people clapped their hands and cheered, and the carriage parked in the crowd slowly left here.
Xiao Chengyi left the palace and rode towards Shen's Mansion. He had been busy dealing with Xiao Yue's affairs in the past few days and did not even return to the Mansion.
And he hadn't seen Yan Yan for three days. He was thinking so hard that in order to save time, he didn't even take the carriage and rode back directly.
Just when we were passing through Yongfu Lane, we were blocked by a carriage in front of us.
The carriage was lying across the road, and in front of it was a woman sitting on the ground with a child in her arms, as if she had been hit by the carriage.
The driver looked at the mother and son angrily and said, "You don't want your life?"
The woman seemed a little frightened. She only reacted when she heard the coachman's scolding and quickly looked towards the luxurious carriage driveway: "You hit me, you have to pay me."
When the coachman heard this, his expression changed, and he said angrily: "We were walking peacefully, but you rushed over by yourself, and you still want us to pay for it?
I think you want to blackmail me? Don't open your eyes wide to see that this is the carriage of Taiwei Qin's mansion."
When she heard Taiwei Qin, the woman's expression suddenly changed. She did not expect that what she bumped into would be the carriage of Taiwei's mansion.
Looking down at the child in her arms, the woman felt a little at a loss for a moment. She said heartily: "What's wrong with the Lieutenant? Can we just leave it alone if the Lieutenant bumps into someone?"
At this time, there were many people around to watch. When the driver of the Qin Mansion saw this, he was very angry and said: "It is obvious that you hit it yourself, but you still want to extort our money. It is simply unreasonable. I think you want to see the official." .”
The woman was anxious when she heard that the official was in charge. At this time, a gentle voice came from the carriage: "Okay, stop talking, give her ten taels of silver and let her take the child to see a doctor."
The coachman was stunned and called out in surprise: "Miss."
The person in the car said warmly: "She didn't do it on purpose. It's probably because the child was seriously ill and she didn't have money for medical treatment, so she decided to do this. She's a poor person, so give her the money."
After hearing this, the coachman didn't know what to say. He reluctantly took out ten taels of silver from his body, threw it over and said, "Take the money and get out of here."
When the woman saw the silver on the ground, she was very happy, picked it up in a hurry, hugged the child and left.
Xiao Chengyi said: "Stop."
The woman turned back to look at Xiao Chengyi, with some confusion on her face.
Xiao Chengyi got off his horse and walked towards the woman. He stretched out his hand to feel the pulse of the child in the woman's arms, and then said: "This child is seriously ill. I'm afraid ten taels of silver are not enough."
The woman was startled and asked hurriedly: "How much do you need?"
Xiao Chengyi said: "At least one hundred taels."
One hundred taels?
The woman's eyes widened, and she suddenly raised her head to look at the Taiwei's carriage.
When the coachman saw her looking over, he immediately said: "Don't try to extort our money again. It's our lady's kindness to give you ten taels of silver. Otherwise, she would have sent you to see the official."
The woman didn't know what to do. At this time, the curtain of the carriage opened, revealing the face of the woman in the carriage.
The woman rushed over with the child in her arms, knelt on the ground and said, "Miss, please do a good job and save my child, right?"
