Except for me, all my enemies have been reborn.

Chapter 85 Anyone who stands in my way must die

Axe King dragged Fang Li away, leaving only Shang Shixu and Liu Jinghong in the room.

The two looked at each other in silence. Shang Shixu was waiting for Liu Jinghong to speak up.

At the same time, she was also thinking about what Liu Jinghong had done for Fang Li's master for his lover.

Judging from Fang Li's attitude, Liu Jinghong is very important and seems to hold all of their important secrets.

"Timing, I..." Liu Jinghong's face was pale and his hands hung down weakly.

"Shixu, I have done many things wrong. I don't even have the face to tell you."

Shang Shixu brought a cup of tea and gently pushed it to Liu Jinghong.

"Senior, it is a great honor to admit your mistakes and make improvements. It is never too late to turn back."

Liu Jinghong held the teacup and was reluctant to speak. After a long time, he drank the water in the teacup and seemed to have made a decision.

"Mr. Prime Minister, the mastermind behind this is County Magistrate Wang. He is the one who kidnapped my lover and forced me to do something that is against the will of heaven and earth."

As the time sequence of the business was clear, she knew that Magistrate Wang must be involved. Now that she had witnesses, all she needed was physical evidence.

"Senior, can you tell me in detail what he asked you to do?"

Liu Jinghong lowered his head, suddenly stood up and knelt towards Shang Shixu.

"Mr. Prime Minister, I am guilty of all crimes. I have committed all kinds of crimes, including arson, murder and looting. In addition...

Moreover, it was the common people who led the people to destroy the money-grass.

The caged money grass is now in Wang Songneng's private residence, but I don't know the exact location of the private residence."

Shang Shixu nodded and said she would send someone to find the location of the private residence.

"Wu She, go look around Lingnan to see if there are any abandoned mansions."

Wushe hid on the beam of the house so that Shang Shixu would not put himself in danger.

"Yes." Wushe jumped out of the window.

Shang Shixu helped Liu Jinghong, who was kneeling on the ground, up: "Get up first. I promised you that I would help you save your lover. Now tell me about your lover's situation."

Liu Jinghong could sense the alienation in Shang Shixu's words. Although he was sad,

But I also understand that I have made too many mistakes and have taken too many lives.

What qualifications do I have to ask Shang Shixu to treat me well?

"Reporting to the Prime Minister, my beloved is named Chunxuan.

Two years younger than Caomin, she is a very gentle girl.

When I came out of Lingnan, I was besieged by a group of people. I was injured and fled in a panic.

She took me in, treated me, and even gave me food and drink.

After a while, we fell in love, but unfortunately, the good times didn't last long. A group of people kidnapped Chunxuan.

I searched everywhere until His Royal Highness was summoned away.

When Wang Song became the governor of Lingnan County, I learned that my lover was abducted by her.

He forced me to do things for him, and for Chunxuan, I had to..."

Liu Jinghong's voice became lower and lower as he spoke. He knew clearly that he had done too many mistakes.

There is no way to make up for it. He can't go back. Now he just hopes that his lover can return safely.

Shang Shixu sighed, another infatuated person.

But, no matter how infatuated you are, those who were killed by him were also innocent.

"I understand. Since your lover has been captured, he might also be in that private residence.

Please wait for a while. When Wushe finds the private house, I promise that I will help you rescue your lover safely."

Shang Shixu sipped the tea in his hand, feeling very distressed. Now all he needed was physical evidence. Unfortunately, this evidence probably wouldn't be easy to find.

Liu Jinghong held the teacup, lowered his head, and didn't know what he was thinking about.

Shang Shixu saw that he had nothing more to say and planned to get up and leave.

Liu Jinghong suddenly knelt down and buried his head deeply in his arms.

"Prime Minister, I am guilty." Liu Jinghong knelt in front of Shang Shixu, his voice low and trembling.

Shang Shixu turned around and looked at him, "Liu Jinghong, are you confessing?"

Liu Jinghong raised his head, his eyes full of regret: "For my own selfish desires,

They served them and did many things that harmed the people.

I am unworthy of being a ranger, and even more unworthy of being a person who protects the people."

Shang Shixu was silent for a moment. There was no anger in her eyes.

Only deep thinking. "Liu Jinghong, you can recognize your mistakes and come to confess, which means you can still be saved.

However, your actions have already caused harm to the people, and you must take responsibility."

Liu Jinghong clenched his fists and nodded, "I am willing to accept any punishment, as long as I have a chance to make up for my mistakes."

Shang Shixu stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the scenery outside: "I can't accept your confession.

This is not only a confession to myself, but also a confession to the people who were harmed.

What you need to do is not only accept the punishment, but also make up for their losses personally.

To protect them and make sure this never happens again.”

Liu Jinghong kowtowed again: "I understand, Prime Minister,

I will do this for the rest of my life until the very end.”

Shang Shixu nodded and said nothing more. She was in a hurry to interrogate Fang Li.

The dungeon was dark and damp. Axe King sat on a stone, staring at Fang Li intently.

In the cold and dark dungeon, Fang Li lay on a pile of hay.

The clothes he wore were tattered, and the water drops on the wall were dripping.

It was as if he was counting down the time left for him. He was surrounded by thick stone walls.

The only light that came in through the small window high up could not illuminate the darkness in his heart.

Shang Shixu took a few steps forward and stood in front of Fang Li's cell. She asked, "Fang Li, don't you regret it? Don't you want forgiveness?"

Fang Li raised his head, his eyes full of provocation: "Regret? Everything I did was for a higher power,

As for forgiveness, it is the comfort of the weak, I don’t need it.”

Shang Shixu looked at Fang Li deeply, with a trace of compassion in his eyes.

She knew that the man in front of her had completely lost himself and was drowning in the illusion of power he had created.

Shang Shixu lowered his eyes, and a belief became more firm in his heart.

True power lies not in controlling others but in standing up for justice and kindness.

Those who are blinded by power will ultimately live out their lives alone in the shadows they have woven.

But she still didn't understand why he was so heartless to Fang Shun.

Shang Shixu's eyes were full of scrutiny and questioning.

She wanted to know what could drive a person to go down such a dark path and end the life of her own brother.

"Fang Li, why did you kill your own brother?" Shang Shixu's voice was calm and firm.

Fang Li raised his head, his eyes flashing with indifference and provocation: "So what? My brother hindered my ambition,

If he doesn't die, how can I achieve my goal?"

Shang Shixu frowned, she couldn't understand Fang Li's logic.

Fang Shun had clearly stated that he would help Fang Li.

And took practical action, but Fang Li still...

"Is your ambition more important than brotherhood?"
