Gan Ruizhi fell to the ground and said in a daze: "I have been working hard for so many years. When we were building the bridge, it rained and the sediment accumulated, which almost killed them. It was me. I went down to the river to save them. There was a severe drought the year before last and the harvest was low. I took the people from the government office with me. I picked up the hoe and started digging. I dug wells and plowed the land. I had been an official for many years and I had never touched the people even a cent. Why do you deny me!"
"I am a son from a poor family, and I have stayed up late and studied hard for more than ten years. How much have I paid for the people of Liushan Prefecture, and only a few women have betrayed me, and I can't make the decision anymore?!"
Mo Lan stood up and walked up to him and looked at him coldly: "Yes, you are worthy of this Liushan Prefecture. You have paid a lot for the people. From this point of view, you are a good official. But think about it, every time you have a wife, they will If they are not the people of Liushan Prefecture, aren’t their relatives?”
Pointing at the people of the Si family: "Look at them, do you dare? You suspect that Si Xinglan is having an affair with someone else, so just divorce her. How can it cost people's lives? Even if you can't hate it, those people you later married What’s wrong with the position?”
"You are paranoid, suspicious, controlling, passive and autistic. When you are unhappy, you beat and scold them, and kill people. You could have better ways to vent, but you chose the most extreme way, even treason!"
Gan Ruizhi retorted: "I was forced. She knew that I had killed someone, forced me to take poison, and threatened me with my family. I did nothing except provide some information! I did not treason! I think Be a good official, I want to be a good official!"
People, once they make a mistake, most of them will shirk responsibility and even make the same mistake again and again, but in the end, they always have to face it.
"Gan Ruizhi, Gan Li, and Gan Zhilin deliberately murdered many people and shall be executed immediately! The entire Gan family will be exiled to the World of Warcraft Forest. The whole family will not be allowed to serve as officials in the court for three generations. Unless they have made great achievements, they can only stay in the World of Warcraft Forest for generations."
Liu Xuezhou heard the verdict and was about to speak, but the two adults shook their heads at him.
The yamen officer took the man out and pushed him to the entrance of the vegetable market. It was not past noon, and the executioner raised his knife and was about to chop down. Suddenly, a black mist attacked him. He had to change the direction of the knife and slash at the black mist.
After the fog cleared, a woman with a black and purple body appeared on the beheading stage, looking enchanting and charming.
"Mo Lan? You have ruined our Xianling Pavilion's good deeds many times. You can kill that trash Liu Heli, but you can't touch Gan Ruizhi. He is my most satisfying work."
Mo Lan smiled disdainfully: "Xianling Pavilion, you are a bug who cultivates by absorbing other people's evil thoughts. If you don't stay well in southern Xinjiang, why do you come to Daxing?"
Purple veins suddenly burst out on the woman's face, and she glared at Mo Lan: "Don't talk about Daxing, this continent will belong to my Xianling Pavilion in the future. I advise you to understand, why not join my Xianling Pavilion, so that you can be free and happy."
"Please worry, I'm living a happy life now, and I don't want to become as ugly as you!" Mo Lan was gagging and said unforgivingly.
The woman seemed to have had a thorn in her heart ripped out. She twisted her body like a snake and rushed towards Mo Lan.
Lao Geng and Shen Shiyuan stood in front of her. Lao Geng built an earthen wall, and Shen Shiyuan condensed a white halo of light around Mo Lan.
The woman broke through the earth wall and hit the light circle, and was ejected.
"Light element, what a disgusting thing!" After saying that, it turned into a ball of black mist and disappeared.
Mo Lan ordered beheading and killed the three beasts.
At the same time, the three adults were fined for half a year as a warning.
Yunjian Inn
"Brother Shen, what state is that woman today?" Mo Lan felt a little aggrieved, thinking that she was at the peak of the Yellow Realm and was about to break through to the Xuan Realm, but in the past few months, every time she encountered danger, someone else stood in front of her. , suddenly felt very small.
"The pinnacle of the profound realm!"
"Then you are not in the Earth Realm!" Mo Lan's eyes widened. This is the first person in the Daxing Dynasty to reach the Earth Realm in so many years.
Shen Shiyuan coughed in embarrassment: "Ahem, cough, no, I am at the peak of the middle level of the Xuan Realm, because I practice the light element, and that woman practices the most evil form of the dark element, so even if I fail her Even the first level can restrain her.”
"Light element!" Mo Lan was a little frustrated. She was about to break through to the Xuan Realm. She hadn't awakened the element element yet, while others had already awakened after entering the realm. It was almost torn apart!
"Miss, Mr. Liu is looking for you." Ai Xiang came to report.
"Master Liu? Invite him over. What's going on?"
Liu Xuezhou looked at her with a look of death.
"Sir, is today's verdict against the Gan clan rash? According to law, the nine clans of the Gan clan must be executed!"
Mo Lan put down the chopsticks in his hand and said seriously: "Have the Gan clan committed any crime?"
"But according to Daxing regulations..."
“Let me ask you, what was the original intention of establishing the law, and for whom was it established?”
"Restrain the behavior of the people, everyone is equal under the law, and we are here to achieve great prosperity and development!"
"Then what is the basis for great prosperity? It is the people, the people, so legislation is for the public and law enforcement is for the people! Laws are made by people, and everyone has imperfections, let alone laws made by people. Since there are deficiencies, modifications should be renegotiated and different decisions should be made for different situations.”
Liu Xuezhou broke into a cold sweat when he heard what she said. How could this young man dare to say anything?
Mo Lan disagreed. In China, all interests are for the people. The people are treated fairly and have freedom of speech. Unlike here, people are still bound by feudal ideas.
Therefore, the Gan family cannot stay here, otherwise the excitement will only implicate innocent people.
next day
Mo Lan and Ai Xiang were packing their luggage. Every time they stopped to rest, there was a lot of trouble. She planned to go directly to southern Xinjiang and take turns on duty at night, so she had to speed up the pace.
At this time, the waiter came and knocked on the door, "Sir, someone is looking for you outside."
As soon as Mo Lan came downstairs, a dirty man rushed towards her. Mo Lan stretched out his hand to support her head, always keeping an arm's length away.
"I......"
"What are you!"
"I think......"
"No, you don't!"
Shen Shiyuan saw this scene when he walked into the lobby. The dirty little guy bared his teeth and claws at Mo Lan. He walked over and picked up his collar and lifted him up.
The little guy fluttered his limbs and shouted: "Let me go, let me go, Mo Lan, you are going to murder me!"
Shen Shiyuan let her go, "Ran Ran?"
Mo Lan held her forehead, she shouldn't have known about the dog hole at home.
"I haven't seen you for more than a month, but you are brave enough to call me by my name!"
Mo Ran wiped his face and wiped all the frozen snot on his sleeves, "One moment is urgent, another moment is urgent!"
"Ai Xiang, take the second lady to wash up." The smell on Mo Ran's body is really too strong, but Mo Lan is a person who is particularly sensitive to smells.
"Brother Shen, please accompany me out to buy some things."
Shen Shiyuan grabbed her and said, "If you need anything, I'll send someone to buy it."
Mo Lan stood up on tiptoes, put her hands on his shoulders and said, "You don't understand, the fun of shopping is to buy it in person."
The two of them went to buy some food together, and also bought some tents, fire breakers and the like. There was no fire between them, so they still needed fire breakers to light a fire.
When she turned around, she saw Mo Ran chasing after her. She was wearing a pink coat and skirt and a red cloak. She was holding a small heater in her hand. Her face was flushed and her eyes were rolling. She was very cute.
When Mo Ran saw her, he waved happily and ran forward.
"..."
Mo Lan reached out and blocked her mouth, "Call me brother!"
Mo Ran grinned and said, "Brother, please accompany me around here. It's so magical here. Their door is actually blue. Oh, look, what are they wearing on their heads? By the way, this hand warmer is You, don’t be cold.”
Shen Shiyuan took the thing in her hand, smiled lovingly and said, "Let's play with her. It seems that I have suffered a lot while coming to you."
"Thank you, Brother Shen!"
After Shen Shiyuan walked away, Mo Ran made a face and muttered: "Thank you, Brother Shen, thank you, Brother Shen."
Mo Lan slapped her on the head, "Let's go, go shopping, and tell me how you escaped from home."
The Chinese New Year is just around the corner in a few days, and the city is particularly lively. People from the mountains are also out, buying and selling mountain products.
People were coming and going on the street. Some people recognized Mo Lan and greeted her warmly.
Mo Ran looked at her like she was looking at stars, and said, "Wow, brother, you are so popular, Mr. Mo, tsk, I hope someone calls me that one day."
"Tell me, how did you get out?"
"I...just...said to daddy, and then came out."
Mo Ran didn't dare to look at Mo Lan at all. He pursed his lips, shook his head and looked around.
Mo Lan thought to herself, lie, don't you know it's obvious when you lie? Every time you get into trouble, you reveal your secret!
"Tell the truth, or I will send you home immediately to be sent by traffickers."
Mo Ran pouted, ready to act coquettishly, and Mo Lan made a gesture to leave.
"Oh, I said, I said, you can't scold me, I left a letter to daddy, and then... went into a dog hole at night."
Sure enough, I will write home tomorrow and ask them to plug up all the dog holes in the house.
"Then why are you so dirty? Didn't you take any money when you came out?"
"I took it, and when I arrived in Yongzhou, it was all spent."
Mo Ran was spoiled at home and had no idea about money. Maybe buying a candied haws could give someone a few taels of silver.
Mo Lan really guessed it right. Mo Ran was defrauded of a lot of money when she first came out. Later, when she wanted to eat something, she would let others buy it first.
"How did you know I was going this way?"
"What kind of association did you set up? The emperor greatly praised dad and gave our family many rewards. The fifth prince originally came to our door every day to cancel the engagement, but after the emperor rewarded him, he stopped coming." Mo Ran said as he spoke. , while rolling his eyes, his hands were still busy, looking at this and touching that.
Mo Lan's heart skipped a beat and she broke off the engagement. Now she shot herself in the foot. It seemed like she would have to find another chance to break off the engagement.
Mo Lan turned around again, and Mo Ran already had a lot of things in his hand: "Mo Ran, have you paid? Just take it!"
"I'm used to it, I'm used to it." In the past, when the two of them went out, they would be followed by a maid and a servant. They would just take it and leave, and the maid would pay for it.
The stall owners around them waved their hands: "No, no, no, Sir Xiao Mo's sister likes it, just take it, no money required."
Mo Lan escorted Mo Ran back. One by one, each family apologized and gave them money. It’s not easy to make a living when you go out, so there’s no reason to take other people’s things without giving them money.
Back at the inn, Mo Ran came to sleep with her and held her arm: "Sister, I find that you have really changed. Now you are not only capable, but also polite, and you are also proud of your father."
Mo Lanhan, she was rude before.
Also, apart from his good talent in cultivating spiritual power, the original person had nothing to offer, and he was always getting into trouble. At that time, Mo Linghong was always laughed at.
"By the time you came out of home, I had already been gone for more than half a month. How come you arrived in Liushan Prefecture so quickly?"
Mo Ran yawned and snuggled into her arms, "Well, after I left the city, I met a bunch of people, the Wanfeng Sect. I heard that they planned to go to the south, so I said I would go too and invited them Take me with you. They have a flying spirit beast that will become very big when it flies in the sky. It only takes three days from Beijing to Yongzhou. But then I ran out of money, so they kicked me off. Originally, I planned to go to Liangzhou. Waiting for you."
Mo Lan touched her head. Fortunately, she didn't meet any bad people. She was only thirteen years old.
"By the way, I later met a woman dressed in black. She told me that you were going to Liushan Prefecture, so I chased you here. You don't know, I once stole someone's steamed buns. I was chased and beaten, but luckily I ran fast.”
Mo Ran fell asleep while talking.
A woman dressed in black? She doesn't know such a person.
