Song Jianxing didn’t expect that this woman, who had suddenly appeared, to expose all his dirty plans with just a few words.
He wanted to struggle and curse, but Constable Wang discovered his plans first. He grabbed something that looked like a rag and stuffed it into Song Jianxing’s mouth. Then, he turned around and instructed his subordinates, “Take him away!”
Song Jianxing struggled with all his might, like a trapped beast on the verge of death. The surrounding constables who came to escort him couldn’t hold him down for a moment and he actually broke free.
Song Jianxing felt that he was doomed this time, but he didn’t feel that all of this was his fault. Instead, he blamed everything on Lin Suisui, who had revealed the truth to the public. Therefore, he rushed in the direction Lin Suisui was standing in and had the vicious intention of perishing with her.
Constable Wang was shocked and pounced forward to stop him. However, he was really a little far from Lin Suisui. No matter how much he wanted to help, he couldn’t.
Su Le blocked in front of Lin Suisui in time, but someone was faster than him. With a whoosh, an arrow pierced through Song Jianxing’s left arm and nailed him to the wall behind him.
Lu Ze walked in from outside the courtyard with a longbow in hand.
He glanced at Song Jianxing, who was nailed to the wall and bleeding profusely. Then, he turned to look at Constable Wang, who was still standing at the side in a daze. He instructed indifferently, “Bring this person back and prosecute him immediately. With such a serious crime, there’s no need to delay anymore. Just sentence him immediately!”
Constable Wang knew Lu Ze’s identity, so how could he dare to say no? He quickly lowered his head and agreed. Then, he immediately arranged for someone to inform the county governor.
After knowing that this case was about to be heard in the county governor’s office, a group of commoners who were waiting to watch the drama didn’t delay any longer. They rushed to find a good seat outside the county office to wait for the follow-up.
After everyone dispersed, Lu Ze turned around and looked at Lin Suisui worriedly. “Are you alright?”
“I’m fine.” Lin Suisui looked up and smiled at Lu Ze. Then, she asked curiously, “Why are you here?”
“I was going to the medical center to pick you up and bring you back to the residence, but I heard that something had happened here, so I rushed over.” Lu Ze reached out and helped Lin Suisui adjust the gauze of her veiled hat before continuing, “Are you going to the county governor’s residence to take a look?”
“Let’s go take a look.” After Lin Suisui thought for a moment, she felt that it was better to finish things.
Lu Ze agreed and reached out to protect Lin Suisui as they left the courtyard. After they got into the carriage, they rushed towards the county governor’s residence.
With Lu Ze’s words, County Governor Tang didn’t dare to delay at all. He quickly announced that he would get someone to prepare. By the time Lu Ze brought Lin Suisui to the county governor’s government office, there were already people inside.
Lu Ze didn’t alarm County Governor Tang, who was solving the case in the hall. Instead, he brought Lin Suisui all the way to the back hall and sat down. Although he couldn’t see the situation in the front hall, he could hear the process clearly.
Just as Lin Suisui had thought, the details of the case in front of her were very clear, so they didn’t spend much effort investigating it. 𝘣𝘦𝘥𝘯𝘰𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝘰𝘳𝘨
However, no one expected that at the end of this case, Eldest Madam Fang would become involved.
Because this idea to kill his wife was the idea of the Fang family’s Eldest Madam.
Not only had she come up with the idea, but she had also bought this arsenic in the name of buying it to poison rats.
After buying the arsenic, she handed it to Song Jianxing and asked him to take it back for Song Zhou to use! However, who would have thought that this matter would end up like this?
In the end, Song Jianxing was sentenced to death for the felony of killing his mother. Eldest Madam Fang also didn’t escape punishment and was sentenced to death too. However, there was still one problem—Eldest Madam Fang was pregnant now. How should this child be dealt with?
According to the empire’s torture rules, the Fang family’s Eldest Madam definitely wouldn’t be able to escape execution. However, because she was pregnant, this punishment would probably be postponed until a year after she gave birth.
At that time, Eldest Madam Fang would be beheaded. Who would take care of this child?
After the Fang family found out that their daughter had made such a huge mistake, they didn’t even show their faces. Mr. Fang even said to the outside that they would pretend that they had never given birth to this daughter!
Therefore, sending this child to the Fang family was impossible.
The only thing left was the Song family where the child’s father, Song Jianxing, was from. However, Song Jianxing and Eldest Madam Fang colluded. Now that Song Jianxing had committed the felony of killing his mother, how could he have the ability to take care of this child?
“Please keep this child!” Just as County Governor Tang was thinking about how to resolve the matter, Song Jianxing, who had been pressed down in the hall, suddenly turned around and begged Song Zhou, who was standing at the side, “1-1 know it’s my fault. I’ve let you down, but this child is innocent! Please leave a descendant for the Song family on account of us being husband and wife!
I’ll definitely repay you in my next life!”
Song Zhou turned around and met Song Jianxing’s pleading gaze as she asked coldly, “Then, what if this child is also a girl?”
“I asked the master to calculate it. This child must be a boy!” Song Jianxing froze for a moment before he refuted Song Zhou’s hypothesis with certainty. He had risked his life and ended up like this because of this son!
Therefore, it was absolutely impossible for him to admit that this child might be a girl!
“What if you’re wrong? Don’t forget, when 1 was pregnant with the second child, the master said that it was a son. Later on, when I was pregnant with the third child, the master even patted his chest as he promised, but what happened in the end?”
Song Zhou looked at Song Jianxing with a hint of pity and mockery in her eyes and suddenly felt that she had a long nightmare. Now, she was finally going to wake up.
“Song Jianxing, wake up. Let’s not talk about whether this child is a boy or a girl. We don’t even know if he’s your son!
“Even if it’s your child, his parents plotted to take the lives of me and my three daughters.. Why should I raise my enemy’s child?”
