The news that people from the Hou Mansion were arrested by the government spread quickly.
Xu Wanning asked people to count the things as quickly as possible. Less than a quarter of the things that could be found in the thick dowry list. In addition to the last complaint, the Hou Mansion had returned all the things pawned by Xu Wanning. She reluctantly Made up half of it.
The remaining one-half, equivalent to silver, is almost 70,000 to 80,000 taels.
Wang Xingmin immediately sealed up the Hou Mansion. After establishing the evidence that the Hou Mansion was embezzled and violated the law, he put the house in the Hou Mansion up for sale, hoping to make up for her shortfall by selling the house.
Xu Wanning has moved out of the Hou Mansion and settled in Ren'antang.
With Pei Heng by his side, Xu Wanning knew the news from the county government immediately.
An imperial edict came from the imperial court, and those involved in the matter were immediately executed and severely punished. At the same time, there was also news in the edict that Cui Yunfeng and Cui Qingping were not aware of the crime and were not guilty, so they were released immediately.
"I'm afraid that someone behind the scenes is asking for the emperor's favor." Pei Heng pointed lightly: "The Duke of Wei is also worried."
The one who was rescued was Cui Yunfeng's sweetheart, and he still said he didn't know about it?
"They think that with these two people here, the Cui Mansion can return to its former glory and become their arms. It's ridiculous and naive." Xu Wanning sneered.
"If you feel unhappy, I can still kill both of them. Even if you didn't pay attention during the interrogation and slapped a few more whips, it is common for people to die."
He even thought of excuses. If Zhang and the emperor came to accuse him, Pei Heng would just get scolded a few times.
"If you die, you'll be done with it. It's too easy for them." Xu Wanning held her chin in her hands, looking at the burning candle, her eyes clearly extinguished: "Let's play with them again. By the way, we can drag Duke Wei's house into trouble."
Didn't they help the Cui family design her?
It just so happened that everyone in Duke Wei's palace was her enemy.
Pei Heng is also looking forward to it: "Kyoto will definitely be very lively."
The time for execution will come soon.
That day, the sun was scorching like fire, and it was a good day to hit the road.
Du Shi Bai Qingqing was kneeling on the execution platform, while Cui Lu had suffered a stroke and was lying on the ground. They only waited for the prison officer's order for the three of them to fall to the ground.
Cui Yunfeng and Cui Qingping knelt in the audience, crying loudly: "Mom and dad, I'll give you a ride."
Du Shi cried loudly: "Feng'er, you have to take good care of yourself and take good care of Brother Ping. Brother Ping is your only hope."
Cui Yunfeng gritted his teeth: "My son knows."
Xu Wanning came to see them off and give them a meal.
"After you have eaten enough, you can walk faster on the road to hell."
"Xu Wanning, don't think you can escape, haha, I can't kill you, someone will avenge me." Du Shi laughed maniacally.
After so many days in jail, they finally understood that Xu Wanning was the culprit!
Everything was arranged by her.
Xu Wanning whispered in her ear: "Are you talking about Wan Lan?"
Du Shi's smile stopped suddenly and she looked at Xu Wanning in horror.
Xu Wanning continued: "Don't worry, you take the first step, I will send her down to see you, and Wei Wei, and the entire Duke Wei Palace, don't worry, you will see them all."
Du Shi looked at Xu Wanning like crazy: "You are crazy, you are crazy."
"I'm not crazy." Xu Wanning smiled: "I'm going crazy, how can I send you to see the King of Hell?"
"Do you think you can succeed? Xu Wanning, my son and grandson, will cut off your head to pay homage to us."
Xu Wanning didn't care at all, "Oh? Just them? One is inhumane, and the other..." Xu Wanning raised her eyebrows, as if she didn't take it to heart.
The weather is very hot at the moment, the sun is in the sky and the heat is overwhelming.
Cui Qingping knelt under the scorching sun. It was fine at first, but then it didn't work anymore. His face became red and hot, and he kept scratching his face with his hands.
The position he scratched happened to be half of the face that had been cured this time.
"Brother Ping, what are you doing?" Du Shi screamed.
Cui Qingping said while scratching: "Grandma, my face is so hot and itchy." He scratched his face hard. After a while, his face became red and swollen, and even scratched the skin. It was bright red, as if blood was oozing out.
Mrs. Du watched in horror as Cui Qingping scratched his face.
Half of his face had been scratched until it was bleeding, but he seemed not to be afraid of the pain, still scratching and scratching.
Cui Yunfeng also saw it and grabbed Cui Qingping's hand, "Brother Ping, what are you doing?"
"Dad, it's so itchy!"
Bai Qingqing was anxious: "Take him to see a doctor!"
Cui Yunfeng looked at Mrs. Du, who was also anxious, "Go quickly. The child's face cannot be delayed."
Cui Yunfeng kowtowed to them three times, then picked up Cui Qingping and ran outside, not even watching his parents being beheaded.
Xu Wanning said with a smile: "Just him? You're probably going to be disappointed!"
"How could this happen?" Mrs. Du looked at all this in disbelief, and suddenly understood something: "Xu Wanning, Dr. Jia was arranged by you."
Xu Wanning nodded approvingly: "Not too stupid. Do you know, from now on, his face should not be exposed to the wind, otherwise it will itch, and it will itch to death, but he is not afraid of pain, what do you think? , this face, scratch and scratch, scratch it to pieces, do you think you will see the bones? The future heir to the Hou Mansion, with a face of bones and bones, tsk, oh, I was wrong, there is no Hou Mansion anymore La."
Bai Qingqing also heard and saw it, and her heart was broken: "Xu Wanning, he is your son too, and you have raised him for so many years. Please let him go, he is still just a child!"
Du Shi gritted her teeth: "Xu Wanning, even if I become a ghost, I will never let you go."
"Then wait until you become a ghost." Xu Wanning said quietly: "Actually, you can see more clearly when you are a ghost."
"When I was a ghost, I dreamed that Cui Yunfeng was the Jinshi of High School, and Cui Qingping was the top student in High School. Two Jinshis in one subject, and the Emperor granted Chengyang Marquis Mansion to be hereditary for three generations. How glorious and glorious. You also became the imperial wife." Xu Wanning pointed again. Bai Qingqing said: "You returned to the Hou Mansion, took my place, and became the young lady of the Hou Mansion. Everything is as you wish, and you have everything you want."
Du Shi and Bai Qingqing looked at Xu Wanning as they looked at Mrs. Dian.
Xu Wanning continued: "I didn't know until that time that you were the noble person who conspired to deceive me. You were Cui Yunfeng's favorite person. Cui Qingping was your son, and my son got smallpox and was disfigured. Later, he was disfigured by smallpox." When he was falsely accused of stealing, you asked me to beat him up and drive him out of the house, so I did everything. Later, I heard that he froze to death and starved to death in a ruined temple. Are you happy?"
happy?
Naturally happy.
But it was a dream.
Xu Wanning chuckled: "In that dream, everyone's wishes came true, except for me. Everyone around me died, and finally I became a loner. In the end, I also died. So, I am Xu Wanning, who has turned into an evil ghost, is here to ask for your life. You must die one by one, all of you must die."
Du Shi was horrified: "How could it be possible? How could it be possible!"
She wanted to ask Xu Wanning to find out.
The execution officer gave the order: "The auspicious time has come for the execution!"
Xu Wanning walked off the execution platform with a smile.
Du Shi and Bai Qingqing just opened their mouths to scream, poof...
The head fell to the ground, the bulging eyes were open, and he refused to rest in peace!
