It wouldn't be too many for this kid to die ten times, but he happened to be his own son. He really couldn't do the same as killing his own son, so he could only wait and see.
Cao Wenjie was extremely efficient in handling the case. That night, a row of people knelt neatly on the street, surrounded by soldiers with live ammunition. According to Fang Zhiyi's request, a wooden board was inserted behind these people, with each person's crime written on it.
They knelt for the entire night, while Fang Yaozu lay on the side all night, and only woke up slightly at dawn. He sneezed first, and then felt a burning pain on his body. Did his father actually beat him up yesterday?
Why? Did they go to their father to complain because they stole the painting from the pawnshop owner? Or did they beat up the pancake vendor?
Damn it, I’ll have to settle accounts with them sooner or later! Fang Yaozu thought bitterly, and suddenly looked up, dumbfounded.
There were many people standing in front of them watching the excitement. The news that someone was forced to kneel all night yesterday spread, and many people came to watch the excitement early in the morning. Fang Yaozu subconsciously turned his head and saw several familiar faces.
"Little boy! Li Shun!"
Li Shun's face was swollen. Seeing Fang Yaozu finally woke up, he cried, "Master Fang, you finally woke up. Please save us quickly. I can't feel my knees anymore."
Fang Yaozu glanced at the onlookers, his face full of anger: "What the hell are you looking at!"
Cao Wenjie's sinister voice sounded behind him: "Young Master, I advise you not to talk nonsense now." As a conspirator, he knew Fang Zhiyi's character better than anyone else. It was obvious that the Marshal was really angry yesterday. He was not stupid and knew which side he should stand on.
Fang Yaozu resisted a little, but the pain in his body reminded him of the beating he suffered yesterday. He had never been beaten like this since he was a child, and he was a little scared for a moment.
"Uncle Cao, what's going on?"
Cao Wenjie pouted and said, "It's written on their backs."
Fang Yaozu looked at them one by one.
"They oppress the people and run rampant in the countryside."
"Blackmailing merchants and extorting vendors."
"Molesting a woman is like aiding and abetting the tyrant's evil deeds."
Fang Yaozu subconsciously looked at himself. Aiding the tyrant? Could he be the tyrant?
"Fellow villagers!" A familiar voice came, and Fang Zhiyi also came over surrounded by guards. He just glanced at the kneeling people, and his gaze did not even linger on Fang Yaozu's face for a second.
"I'm Fang Zhiyi. I'm sorry to all of you!" Fang Zhiyi clasped his fists and then bowed. This stunned everyone. In their eyes, Fang Zhiyi was a moody warlord. How could he be so humble?
Cao Wenjie narrowed his eyes even more. Seeing the Marshal's current attitude, it was estimated that these guys in front of him were doomed.
"My useless son lost his mother when he was young. I was afraid he'd suffer any injustice, so I indulged him a little. Later, when he grew up, I arranged for some people to stay with him and help take care of him. Who would have known!" Fang Zhiyi's tone suddenly rose. "These guys! They led him to do all sorts of evil things! If no one had told me, I would still be in the dark today!"
"Today! I'm going to make this clear in front of you all!"
"Do you recognize this person?" Fang Zhiyi pointed at Li Shun, completely ignoring Li Shun's frightened look.
The people began to whisper, but no one dared to step forward and say anything.
"Are you afraid of him? No, let me tell you." Fang Zhiyi stared at him, "Li Shun, the young master of the Li family who runs the cloth shop. To be honest, his family funded me a while ago, so I promoted him to an officer!"
"Who would have thought that this kid would do such evil things outside under my name?"
