The Female Assistant of Wei Yuyan Shuangfei

Xie Tingwen glanced at the confession on the desk, then looked gloomily at the prisoners kneeling on the execution platform, with only a hint of a sneer on his face.

It doesn’t matter whether they sign their names or not, because public opinion is now boiling over and only the butcher’s knife is waiting for them.

"Bang!~"

Xie Tingwen angrily slammed the gavel, glanced at the prisoners in a cold voice, and then looked at the first person who confessed and asked: "What's your name?"

"I am Zhou Ping, please show some mercy, sir."

"Zhou Ping?"

Xie Tingwen sneered and said, "Report the names of the others to me one by one."

Zhou Ping dared not delay, and started to report along the left side one by one. Sun Cheng wrote quickly, entering the names of several people into the file.

Listening to Zhou Ping's clear account of everyone's secrets, everyone's eyes glared with anger, ready to eat him alive.

Feeling the burning gaze, Zhou Ping did not flinch. He looked at the sturdy man and said, "Sir! Wei Xian was our eldest brother's bodyguard. Now that our eldest brother is dead, he is considered the bandit leader."

"you......"

Wei Xian shouted fiercely, "Zhou Ping! For today's revenge, I will definitely kill you in my next life."

"Bang!~"

Xie Tingwen slammed the gavel, threw a red sign, and said sternly: "You dare to shout on the execution platform. Come! Slap him ten times."

Cao Zhen picked up the red sign, tactfully came to Wei Xian, and nodded at the two yamen runners with a smile.

The bound Wei Xian was subdued by the bailiffs in an instant. As muffled sounds were heard, a hint of red appeared at the corners of Wei Xian's mouth.

His originally rough face was now swollen from being beaten. The other prisoners did not dare to shout anymore and could only kneel down beside him in obedience.

After ten strokes, Cao Zhen handed over the red sign.

After the severe punishment, Wei Xian no longer looked like a human being. His eyes were dull and empty, and his face was visibly swollen.

The common people who watched from a close distance were also somewhat frightened. They could now see that Captain Cao, who always seemed simple and honest, could be so cruel.

Before the people's noisy voices died down, the sound of a gavel was heard.

"Bang!~"

Everyone fell silent instantly, and Xie Tingwen rolled up his sleeves, raised his hand and bowed to the south, saying: "Today, I respect the will of the people and pronounce the verdict on you."

Xie Tingwen said this, glanced at Sun Cheng, nodded and said: "Now, there are a group of criminals in the "Cai Sheng Zhe Zhi" group, Li An, Jiang Zhang, Du Wei..., who are sentenced to death by slicing, which means 3,600 cuts. Where is the executioner?"

"I'm here." A sturdy man said as he quickly walked up to the execution platform carrying a toolbox.

His appearance in red clothes seemed a little weird in the face of the current scene.

When they heard Xie Tingwen's verdict, Li An, Jiang Zhang, Du Wei and other prisoners looked as pale as death.

"Bang!~"

Xie Tingwen slammed the gavel again and said, "The leader of the bandits has been executed, but the leader of the bandits is still alive. Wei Xian's crime is unforgivable by heaven and earth. He should be sentenced to death by slicing, which means 3,600 cuts. His head will be beheaded for three days to deter others. Where is the executioner?"

"I'm here." Another person responded.

Wei Xian couldn't help but tremble, his face turned pale and he looked at Xie Tingwen. The coldness in his eyes was not concealed, but Xie Tingwen seemed not to hear it.

Lingchi was already a severe punishment, and hanging the head on the city wall was a taboo for the corpses of ancient people, so how could he be willing to do that?

He was about to make a few threats, but before he could open his mouth, he felt pain on his cheek. Only then did he remember that he had just been tortured.

Xie Tingwen sneered, slammed the gavel again and said, "The criminal Zhou Ping has made meritorious reports, but his crimes are too numerous to list. I will spare him the death penalty by slicing, and sentence him to behead. His body will be collected and buried."

"Thank you very much, sir, for your kindness. Thank you very much, sir." Zhou Ping kowtowed repeatedly.

Although he also died, his fate was good compared to others. Beheading was just a single blow, and after death, his body could be collected by the funeral cemetery and buried in peace, which was something he had never expected.

The people were all convinced by the verdict on Xie Tingwen and applauded continuously. For a moment, the applause on the execution platform was thunderous and shocking.

All the prisoners were kneeling on the ground tremblingly. Even the somewhat unruly Wei Xian felt a little panicked at this moment.

Xie Tingwen glanced at the few people, took out a white stick and threw it out, saying: "Execute!"

Zhou Ping calmly placed his head on the execution platform. A pungent smell of liquor hit him, and the sword fell.

"Bang!~"

There was a startling sound, and Zhou Ping was beheaded in an instant. The bloody red color was blown by the breeze, and the scene was extremely bloody.

"Reporting to you, sir! The criminal Zhou Ping has been executed." The executioner said with a fist salute.

Xie Tingwen calmly drew out another red lottery ticket, glanced at the people, and said loudly: "The punishment for the rest of the criminals is lingchi, all women and children should stay away."

Xie Tingwen's words were a reminder. After all, the scene that was to follow was somewhat bloody and most people simply could not bear it.

As the groups of people left, Xie Tingwen looked at Cao Zhen and said, "Send the young lady back, and arrange for these children to stay in the county government office. I will come back to deal with them after I have watched the execution."

"Yes!" Cao Zhen bowed his head and responded.

Xie Shuting also knew her father's concerns, so she led her children to the county government office. As for what happened on the execution platform, she knew what the scene was without having to think about it.

Watching the people leaving in twos and threes, Xie Tingwen threw out the red sign without hesitation and said loudly: "Take off your clothes and execute."

The bailiffs, who had been waiting for orders for a long time, took advantage of the situation and stripped the prisoners of their outer clothes. As the cold wind penetrated their bodies, the people who were originally in a daze couldn't help but shiver and instantly woke up.

Xie Tingwen had given the order, and the executioner began to act without hesitation. As the knife sliced ​​into the prisoner's flesh and bones, wails suddenly emerged.

"Hi!~"

The people who stayed behind to watch the execution couldn't help but gasp, as if they also felt the pain in their own flesh.

Xie Tingwen sat at the desk, staring blankly, while Sun Cheng repeated aloud: "One knife, two knives, three knives... seventy-seven knives, seventy-eight knives..."

As the Lingchi punishment progressed, the prisoners were already breathing less and more. The yamen runners at the side followed the procedure and poured a bucket of salt water on the wounds on the prisoners' bodies.

"Hi!~"

The prisoners, who were about to faint, gasped and begged for mercy in a weak voice: "Please, sir, give us some pain."

"Please give me a quick death."

Xie Tingwen pretended not to hear anything and just kept looking at the documents with an expression of no concern.

At this time, the people in the stands, seeing such a bloody scene, began to feel a little fear towards Xie Tingwen.

Unexpectedly! After today, Xie Tingwen has inexplicably gained the title of Slaughterer, the kind that always draws blood when he raises his knife.
