Chapter 218 Scholar Quan Zhaonian
At this time, a man dressed in extremely ragged clothes who looked like a scholar came out, knelt in front of Yu Mengqing and Chu Shiheng, and said:
"Save Prince Zhan, Princess Zhan, please make the decision for me. My name is Quan Zhaonian. I was originally a scholar and my family was well-off. But three years ago, my father refused to go along with Lu Cunming, so he murdered my parents. The whole Lingshi County knows about this."
"I have also submitted letters to the court many times, but Lu Cunming has absolute power in Lingshi County and has intercepted my letters many times. If it weren't for my good luck, I might have died by now."
Having said that, Quan Zhaonian kowtowed to Chu Shiheng and Yu Mengqing.
Quan Zhaonian kowtowed one after another, as if he felt no pain, and felt even more heartbroken when he heard Yu Mengqing's words.
If what Quan Zhaonian said was true, then even if Lu Cunming died ten times, it would not be enough to make up for the mistakes he made.
He was originally a promising young man, but because of such a county magistrate, his bright future was ruined.
Who shouldn't die like this?
"You get up first. I will take care of this matter for you." Chu Shiheng said expressionlessly.
His face was expressionless, but Yu Mengqing, who knew him, knew that this was a sign of Chu Shiheng's anger.
And looking at Chu Shiheng's expression, it was obvious that he believed Quan Zhaonian's words.
In fact, not only Chu Shiheng, but also Yu Mengqing who was standing next to him also believed that what Quan Zhaonian said was true.
Looking at Quan Zhaonian's clothes, how does he look like someone from a wealthy family?
How can he look like a scholar?
It was obvious that he was living in poverty these days.
What kind of situation had he been forced into to cause a scholar to fall to this point?
"You are worse than an animal." Guo Peiying said viciously to Lu Cunming.
At this time, Lu Cunming was already dumbfounded.
He just slumped on the ground, looking incredulous.
"More than a beast, I think he's had it too easy. Mengqing, what do you think we should do with her?"
Xue Zhonglan couldn't help but ask.
"This kind of person should just be killed directly. But before killing him, he should be made to suffer a little. If we just let him die like this, wouldn't that be too easy for him?"
Yu Mengqing said sinisterly.
At least she showed this expression, and those who knew her knew that Yu Mengqing was already furious at this time.
After Yu Mengqing finished speaking, she walked up to Lu Cunming and looked at him expressionlessly.
Then he turned and said to the nearby village:
"I'll kill him in a moment. If you have any rage to vent, you can do it now. I'm watching here. If he fights back once, I'll take his hand. If he hits you with his body, I'll leave no trace of him."
When saying these words, Yu Mengjing's face was expressionless, but it made people feel very happy.
Especially the villagers around, many of them began to applaud Yu Mengqing.
"Okay, okay, General Yu, what you said is really very good. Such a person deserves death."
"That's right. Haven't he exploited us enough over the years? Now that he's dead, he can be considered to have made a profit."
"Only General Yu is willing to make the decision for us. Otherwise, we don't know when we can escape from this sea of suffering."
“…”
Everyone's discussions added fuel to the fire inside Yu Mengqing.
Come to think of it, it would be appropriate for Lu Cunming to pay off part of his debt before he dies.
"For a person like this, letting him die easily would actually be a bargain for him."
Hearing Yu Mengqing's words, the villagers passing by suddenly became excited.
They all said: "Thank you, Prince Chu and Princess Chu, thank you..."
Then he walked up to Lu Cunming viciously and wanted to attack him.
But after meeting Lu Cunming's vicious eyes, he didn't dare to take action.
Seeing this, Yu Mengqing walked straight up to him, pulled out the nine-fold whip from her waist, and swung it at him fiercely.
"Ah..." Lu Cunming screamed, and then his round body fell to the ground.
"You can't stand this? Compared to what you did to the people, this is light."
Then he whipped him hard again.
This time, Lu Cunming no longer dared to shout, but just rolled around on the ground groaning.
"Well played, well played..."
The villagers have already started clapping and cheering.
"Do you still need to worry at this time? If you want to fight, then do it. I'm not a good fighter either. I need you to fight together, so it will be better, right?"
With Yu Mengqing's lead, everyone no longer hesitated and walked towards Lu Cunming...
Suddenly, Lu Cunming's wailing echoed throughout the street.
"Remember, you have to spare his life..." Yu Mengqing reminded lightly from the side.
She wanted to parade such a person through the streets before killing him.
Now that Lingshi County has been taken back, she needs someone to sacrifice a chicken to scare the monkey.
Since Lu Cunming appeared at this time, he is the most suitable person.
Chu Shiheng had no opinion on Yu Mengqing's actions.
I even felt that what she did today was a little inconsistent with her usual self.
Normally, she doesn't care about these trivial matters. What's wrong with her today?
Yu Mengqing knew that Chu Shiheng's eyes were on her.
She turned her head to look at him and asked lightly, "Why? Do you think what I did is wrong?"
"Of course not!" Chu Shiheng replied immediately.
"If any one of those villagers had come to me and asked for mercy, I might have spared his life, but obviously, no such person appeared."
"That is to say, not only do the villagers hate him, but his family, including his wife and daughter, do too. A person like him doesn't deserve any sympathy from me at all."
When she said this, there was no concealment of the fierceness in Yu Mengqing's eyes.
She didn't know when it started, but she seemed to particularly dislike those who had the title of an official but did things that were completely contrary to the title.
For example, Yu Huatao...
If he would not sever ties with her because of their blood relationship when she returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, perhaps she would save his life.
But it was obvious that he had cut short his last chance.
Yu Mengqing used her original body, so she naturally had a sense of it. She could feel her original body's need for fatherly love.
But she would not do that, nor would she allow her original self to do that.
Now that she has traveled into her body, she will not allow her original body to behave so cowardly again.
In the eyes of her original body, Yu Huatao might be her father.
But in Yu Mengqing's eyes, he was nothing.
She didn't feel any grief when he died.
A quarter of an hour later, when Lu Cunming was taking his last breath, the villagers finally stopped.
They will never forget what Yu Mengqing said just now.
Of course, they only left him a breath of life.
At least he still had the wrath to parade Yu Mengqing through the streets as a warning to the public.
"Thank you, Princess Zhan, for taking charge of this for us..."
Everyone spoke to Yu Mengqing and the others.
Everyone talks, everyone talks, everyone talks...
Everyone likes to hear these words, but Yu Mengqing and the others don’t have time to listen now.
Now that Lingshi County has been recovered.
But since they have dealt with the county magistrate, someone has to take care of the affairs of the county government, right?
Besides, isn’t Lingshi County too poor?
After walking around like this, Yu Mengqing discovered that no one was dressed normally.
