People are always afraid of death, and Ouyang Yuqing's move was a deterrent.
Not only were the exiled criminals terrified, but the officials who were driven away were also glad that they had not colluded with Yang Yi.
The officials, having gone some distance, led their only old ox and drove their oxcart along the official road.
They were very confused at this time, as there was not a single convict among the guards.
How are they supposed to explain this to them?
Ouyang Yuqing didn't care whether they reported back or not. At this moment, Ouyang Yuqing said to the convicts in the threshing ground, "From now on, you are free."
If any of you are willing to come with me, I can take you in, but you'll have to sign a contract of servitude.
If you don't want to, that's fine with you.
Whether you stay or leave is up to you.
but……
The Su Degui family...
Go back to where you came from, I won't take you.
When Su Degui's mother heard that they wouldn't be taken in, she thought, "Isn't this sending them to their deaths?"
So she angrily yelled at Ouyang Yuqing, "You chased away all the officials, and now you're finally thinking of not taking us in."
You're sending us, a widow and her orphans, to our deaths!
Upon hearing this, Shen Yingying said to the old lady, "I don't care whether you live or die, what does your life or death have to do with us?"
"Yin Yi, get that whole family out of the village. They're an eyesore."
Upon receiving the order, Yin Yi immediately went to Su Degui's mother and her family.
“Let’s go. You’re such a troublemaker. Su Degui deserved to die with a mother like you.”
When the old lady heard Yin Yi say that about her, she was so angry that she wanted to tear Yin Yi apart.
Seeing the old woman's posture, Yin held the large knife he had already taken out to her neck.
"If you miss, then go all out. Sending you on your way is just a matter of waving your hand."
When the old woman saw the knife held to her neck, her legs began to tremble and go weak.
She quickly shut her mouth, not daring to say another word.
Seeing that the old woman had become docile, Yin waved the large knife between her neck and shoulder.
"Hurry up and leave, or your head will roll."
The old woman's legs went weak with fear, and her mouth trembled as she stared at the large knife right in front of her.
"Young man... be careful."
With that knife to my throat, I can't move. Please...
Upon hearing the old woman's trembling words, Yin Yi snorted and took the knife from her neck.
"Hurry up and go, or you'll never be able to go any further."
The old woman was terrified. Grieved, she said to Yin, "Let's go, I'm leaving now."
After saying that, she strode quickly out of the village, not caring about the bloodsucking family at all.
The old woman thought to herself, "Going out might mean death, but staying here means certain death."
After weighing the pros and cons, she took a few steps and then started running.
She didn't want to die at the hands of Ouyang Yuqing, the man who killed her son.
Didn't you see those officials? They just started chopping people up without warning...
This Ouyang Yuqing is truly a murderous monster...
The second wife rolled her eyes when she saw her mother-in-law running faster than a rabbit.
She thought to herself: This old geezer, he's always complaining about this pain or that pain.
She's running away now and no part of her hurts, so why doesn't Ouyang Yuqing just cut her down with a single stroke...?
Yin Yi saw the old lady run away, but Su Degui's wife was still standing there in a daze.
He said to the dazed second wife, "Aren't you leaving? Do you want to die?"
The second wife was staring blankly at Su Degui's elderly mother.
Hearing Yin Yi's words, she quickly replied, "Let's go, let's go right now!"
Young master, please don't be angry...
The second wife ignored everything else and hurriedly ran out of the village.
When Su Degui’s extended family saw that the second wife had run away, they also ran outside.
Su Degui's divorced concubine has been getting very close to the bailiff lately.
But the guards were either killed or driven away, so she couldn't stay in the group any longer.
She picked up her simple bundle and prepared to leave.
When Shen Yingying saw this concubine, wasn't she the one who had been making things difficult for the couple in prison?
