Qiu Yongshou's eyes were red, his mouth was open, and he screamed "ho ho ah, I'm going to chop you to death."
You can't have a conflict with a madman.
When Yan Kui saw this, he turned to the side and got out of the way of Mrs. Wang, who was still lying on the ground and screaming.
It's not against the law for a lunatic to hack someone to death, but Yan Kui didn't want to meddle in other people's affairs to save Mrs. Wang's life.
Looking at Qiu Yongshou's posture, he clearly wanted to hack Mrs. Wang to death.
But just as Yan Kui was hiding away, he suddenly heard the Qiu family members who were chasing Qiu Yongshou shouting at him: "Brother Kui, stop Yongshou, we can't let him kill people, help stop him."
Now, Yan Kui couldn't hide anymore.
He is a fellow villager who comes and goes frequently. If others say this, it would be outrageous for him to ignore it.
So, he put the hoe on the ground from his shoulder, raised it again, turned the long hoe's mouth to the left, stretched out the flat and wide back of the hoe, and blocked Qiu Yongshou.
This way it won't hurt anyone. If it can be pressed against Qiu Yongshou's belly, he can push him back and prevent him from hurting himself with the kitchen knife.
Who knew it would be so small?
Seeing that she was about to be hacked, Mrs. Wang suddenly got up.
But she didn't know whether she was too scared or angry that Yan Kui tripped her. She got up and bumped into the hoe handle that Yan Kui stretched out towards Qiu Yongshou.
It was hit from bottom to top.
The hoe is sharp and heavy.
This time, the hoe's tip was knocked sideways, and Qiu Yongshou's head was chopped off diagonally.
Caught off guard, at this moment that no one expected, Qiu Yongshou fell.
A small half of his head was opened diagonally, and blood spurted out instantly.
Yan Kui was dumbfounded.
After the collision, Mrs. Wang fell to the ground again. At this time, she raised her head and was about to curse, but her voice was blocked in her throat.
The Qiu family were also dumbfounded.
Afterwards, there were screams and panic.
But Qiu Yongshou's life disappeared forever.
This case is easy to decide.
The Funing County magistrate immediately sentenced Yan Kui to death and awaited execution in the autumn.
The prisoner was sent to the death row of the government office, and the case was handed over to Lu Kairui, who directly submitted the case to the Ministry of Punishments.
All of this skipped over Di Ying, who was busy running a case.
I don't know whether it was because the magistrate of Funing County didn't want to appear too incompetent, or because Lu Kairui didn't want to feel out of control when a Di Yinghou appeared on his territory, or because he didn't want to appear too incompetent.
In short, Di Ying was skipped throughout the case.
Regarding this case, Yan Kui also felt that it was all his fault, and he deserved to be unlucky, so he pleaded guilty and was imprisoned.
When he was talking to Chen Boyu on death row, he also said: "Hey, you said that if I had held the hoe more firmly, if I could have seen that Mrs. Wang bumping into me, this thing wouldn't have happened." You blame me, you were too careless, and you harmed Brother Yongshou because of it, I deserve to die."
Chen Boyu doesn't think so.
He advised Yan Kui to look at the problem from another angle.
"It was just an accident. There was nothing wrong in what you did when you stretched out the hoe like that. You didn't expect Mrs. Wang to bump into her suddenly, right?
Although Mrs. Wang might not know the direction clearly for a while, this was also an accident. How can I blame you entirely? You'd better think about it before crying out for injustice."
At this time, Di Ying had not noticed Chen Boyu on death row.
Chen Boyu didn't know Master Di was coming either.
But they all heard that Lu Kairui was a good official. Especially Chen Boyu, he thought that Lu Kairui was very good and careful in protecting his life.
Sometimes, Lu Kairui would visit him in person and bring him some food. Although at that time, some of Lu Kairui's questions were quite strange, and he always wanted to ask him for his father's manuscripts, etc., which made Chen Boyu feel weird.
But Chen Boyu still regarded the other party as a good person. Whatever the other party wanted and what he had, he put aside everything.
Chen Boyu is such a generous person.
Yan Kui also heard that Mr. Lu was a good official, but his idea was that he was guilty, so he should not cause trouble to Mr. Lu.
He also said: "Brother Yongshou is actually quite nice when he is not crazy. We are fellow villagers in our hometown, and we always help each other when we go back and forth. I was reckless and killed someone. The Qiu family must How sad and painful it is. If I go back intact, how can I see others? Forget it, it is only right to kill people to pay for their lives and to pay back their debts. "
In this way, Yan Kui accepted his fate and just waited for Qiu Hou to be executed.
On the contrary, he saw Chen Boyu's poor mental state and poor health, and urged him to cheer up, and often wanted to share his poor food with him.
Chen Boyu did not accept the other party's food, but he accepted the other party as a person and sincerely regarded the other party as a close friend.
Things suddenly turned around just half a month later.
After the case was submitted to the Criminal Department, it was quickly returned.
The new Minister of Punishment, Bi Zimo, changed the verdict of the Funing County Magistrate and determined that Yan Kui was only manslaughter without any subjective intention, so he was acquitted.
Lu Kairui didn't waste any time and released Yan Kui after receiving the approval letter.
This makes Yan Kui happy.
Who wants to die if he can live? He was only twenty-four years old, still young, and he didn't want to die.
There was only a little tangle in my heart: I just didn't know how to face Qiu's family when I returned to the village.
When Chen Boyu told Di Ying these things, he thought it was quite funny.
"The people are simple enough. In addition to having enough food and clothing, they also want harmony in their neighbors and health for their families."
Di Ying also smiled and nodded, agreeing: "Human dignity and affection always make them more scrupulous, and that's what happens all the time."
In this way, Chen Boyu wanted to see what Yan Kui was thinking.
A close friend is more precious. Now, both of them have saved their lives and have a new life.
This miraculous sense of similarity made Chen Boyu feel that this friend was worth continuing to get along with.
A sense of mutual sympathy?
Anyway, go take a look and don't cut off the contact. If the other party encounters any difficulties, Chen Boyu, who has been reinstated, wants to see if he can help the other party.
If the Qiu family really wanted to take revenge on Yan Kui or something like that, the worst case scenario would be to help Yan Kui and his family move to another place.
That's what Chen Boyu thought.
Di Ying also felt that there was nothing wrong with his idea, so he became interested and followed Chen Boyu to Shangshui Village.
As for Lu Kairui and Funing County Magistrate Bei Wenshi, they skipped this case as their own business, and Di Ying didn't take it seriously.
Since the case is settled and no one was wronged, that's fine.
Di Ying also felt that Bi Zimo looked really good.
Who knows.
Before entering the entrance of Sheung Shui Village, I heard the sounds of sorrow and joy coming from the village.
