One touch and one silence

"Bah! This kind of scum, a fool who can't control his lower body, dares to commit a crime in the prefect's backyard. It can be seen that he pretends to be nothing but a nobody. I'm afraid he has done this a lot in private!"

Someone was cursing in an extremely vicious tone, his eyes as big as cow's, and he was staring at the three people who had just spoken to Chen the Butcher.

Nanzhi noticed that the three people who had just spoken shrank their necks back in fear and immediately kept silent.

What surprised Nanzhi even more was that the three of them actually changed their positions and moved far away from the person just now.

Nanzhi couldn't help but look at him, and saw that man's fierce eyes and unkind tone scolding her: "What are you looking at? If you keep looking, I'll dig your eyes out!"

Nanzhi was stunned. Wow! This was the first time someone dared to shout at her since her rebirth. Boy, just wait for me. After I see all this fun, I will beat you up.

This guy deserves a beating.

Nanzhi heard a man in his forties wearing a red official uniform shouting, "Is there anyone willing to feed the murderer Chen the Butcher a last meal?"

Nanzhi was a little curious and didn't understand why the official above asked that question.

She turned her head and asked Liu Yue behind her.

"Master Liu Yue, what does the official mean by that? Will they not be allowed to eat unless someone feeds them?"

Liu Yue said expressionlessly: "According to the laws of the Great Ling Dynasty, no matter what kind of death row prisoners they are, they must have a full meal before they set off, so as to avoid them going on the road hungry and causing great resentment."

Forehead!

So that’s how it is!

Nanzhi looked at Fatty Chen on the stage, his dry and cracked mouth, and he kept muttering.

Her eyes were ashen, she was just too curious.

"Master Liu Yue, can you hear what that butcher Chen said? I saw his mouth moving the whole time and it never stopped. But he was too far away and I couldn't hear him." Nanzhi felt a little regretful.

"He said I was wronged."

Nanzhi widened his eyes and looked at Liuyue, his eyes full of admiration.

"Master Liu Yue, you are so amazing. Did you hear all this? Your internal skills are really amazing. I really want to learn them!"

Liu Yue: ...

When did she say that she could hear it with inner strength? She just knew how to read lips.

Looking at the Seventh Prince, his eyes were shining and he was looking at her with admiration.

Liu Yue didn't explain and let her think whatever she wanted!

Why do I feel so happy?

At this time, Shuhua Shuyue finally overcame all difficulties and squeezed to the side of his master.

The two of them were squeezed so hard that they were sweating profusely, and Shuyue's lips were almost pouted.

At this moment, the official was heard asking again: "Is there no one here?"

Nanzhi thought of what Master Liuyue said, and immediately raised his hands high: "Sir, I'll do it, I'll do it. I feel sorry for him. Our Great Ling Dynasty is so tolerant, we must not let the condemned prisoners go on the road with an empty stomach."

"Who are you?"

A man who looked like a legal advisor asked loudly.

"Sir, I am just a passerby!"

Nanzhi saw that the lawyer wanted to ask something else, but the man in the red official uniform sitting on the execution platform waved his hand impatiently.

Nanzhi guessed that the adult must be feeling very hot and probably wanted to finish the job quickly and go back home early.

Sure enough, the lawyer didn't say anything, and the bailiff in front of Nanzhi made way.

Nanzhi took the chicken leg from Shuyue's hand and the wine from Liuyue's waist.

"Borrow it for a minute, I'll return it to you later!"

After saying this, he walked up to the guillotine with a chicken leg in one hand and a small wine jug in the other.

"Sir, I'll do it, you..." Before Shuhua could finish her words, she saw her master turning his back to her and waving his hand to refuse.

If Shuhua were really allowed to go, how would she be able to tell clearly whether this person was truly wronged or falsely wronged.

She had worked as a counselor for five years in her previous life and had met many prisoners. In her heart, she actually felt that this person might not be a murderer.

She would have to try it herself to be sure.

"Fatty Chen, long time no see. I didn't expect to see you again. You've made it this far." Nanzhi didn't actually want to say anything about wishing you a happy journey. The person already knew he was going to die, so why make him even more unhappy?

Besides, she planned to feel him out to see if he was really innocent.

As soon as Nanzhi finished speaking, he saw Fatty Chen's eyes turned red and tears rolled down his scraggly face.

They say men don't shed tears easily, but only when they are sad!

The man kneeling on the ground rolled his throat for a long time, his mouth corners moved slightly, and it took him a long while to utter two words.

"Thank you!"

"Eat it!" Nanzhi looked at him with pity and handed the chicken leg to Fatty Chen's mouth.

Nanzhi bit open the stopper of the wine flask with her mouth and put the wine into Fatty Chen's mouth. He ate it with a mouthful of wine and a mouthful of chicken leg.

It didn't take long for Fatty Chen to finish the chicken leg and drink almost all the wine.

Fatty Chen suddenly kowtowed to Nanzhi solemnly.

Maybe because he drank some wine, Fatty Chen's words were much clearer.

"Fatty Chen has no way to repay you in this life, but I am willing to work like a cow or a horse in the next life to repay the young master's kindness."

Nanzhi reached out to support him while he was still kowtowing. Suddenly, Fatty Chen laughed and said, "I, Fatty Chen, never thought that there would be someone willing to send me off in the end. I have never done anything to let anyone down in my life. No matter whether you fellow villagers believe me or not, I, Fatty Chen, am upright and if I have never done it, then I have never done it. Come on! I, Fatty Chen, am not afraid. It's just my bad luck that I met such a crooked official. Eighteen years later, I will be a hero again!" After that, he put his head on the stake, closed his eyes, and waited for death.

As Fatty Chen looked righteous, some people in the audience began to be moved.

There was a lot of discussion.

Nanzhi stood there in a daze, and all he could see in his mind was Fatty Chen's life.

It was not until he was pulled away by the bailiffs that Nanzhi came to his senses.

Then I heard the official above me throw down a sign and shout "Behead!"

"It's three quarters past noon! Behead!" the lawyer shouted loudly.

"Behead!" The other yamen runners shouted in unison, and the sound spread throughout the entire West Street.

The man holding the big knife on the stage reached out and pulled out the sign behind Butcher Chen, then sprayed a mouthful of wine at his own knife.

The man raised his knife high up, and before it was about to fall, Nanzhi came to his senses and immediately shouted loudly: "Fatty Chen is innocent, the adults should investigate again."

"Where did you come from, little devil? If you make trouble again, I'll arrest you!"

The master was very angry and signaled the man holding the knife to chop quickly.

It was so hot that he almost got scorched. And the adults were getting impatient.

Nanzhi went straight through the place where the yamen runners were blocking him, slipped under their swords, and walked quickly to the stage.

"Who dares? I remember that in the Da Ling Dynasty, people could appeal if they had grievances. Why can't he? He is also a citizen of the Da Ling Dynasty."

"Young Master, we have all the evidence of Fatty Chen. Please go down quickly and don't disturb the business. Otherwise, if the higher-ups blame you, you will end up in jail."

The master also saw that Nanzhi was dressed elegantly, so he decided to give him some face.

"Let's see who dares?" Nanzhi was just about to say that she was the emperor's son, but suddenly she thought it would be better not to cause trouble. She remembered that in Yuexiang's memory, the legitimate son of Prince Zhennan was the same age as her.

She thought for a moment and shouted, "I tell you, my father is the King of Zhennan, who dares to touch me?"

You must never embarrass yourself or the royal family, otherwise you should embarrass the bad guys.
