Du Zhongqing's voice finally overwhelmed Hu Man.

"Prince Guangling...please give me another chance. I will tell you everything..."

Zhang Yaozhuo took many photos of Gavel.

"Gag his mouth!"

Hu Man was mute and could not speak. A strong man stepped forward to block Du Zhongqing, and the execution ground became quiet. After a moment, Hu Man's roar was heard again.

"Execution!" Zhang Yaozhuo slapped the wood of the hall in dissatisfaction.

"Wait a minute!" Fu Jiuqu raised his chin slightly and said expressionlessly: "Master Zhang, you might as well listen to what he has to say."

Zhang Yaozhuo turned his head and looked at Fu Jiuqu with a smile, "Prince, the case has been concluded by the third division, and the evidence is conclusive. Now we are reporting to the officials to escort him to the execution ground. What else do you want to hear?"

Fu Jiuqu said without changing his expression: "Didn't Master Zhang hear that? People have been wronged and the case must be overturned."

Zhang Yaozhuo smiled and said, "Under Ling Chi's execution, of course he refused to admit it. It's just human nature."

"The public display at the execution site alarmed the soldiers and civilians of Bianjing. There were so many pairs of eyes watching. If the prisoner was not given a chance to speak, he would inevitably be criticized in the future, saying that the court handled the case unjustly, falsely, and erroneously."

Zhang Yaozhuo snorted coldly, "If I miss the time, how should I explain it?"

Fu Jiuqu looked at him sideways, "I will explain it to the officials."

The two looked at each other, but neither said a word.

One is the father-in-law of the official family, and the other is the nephew of the official family.

Under the seemingly calm eyes, there is an undercurrent surging, and a storm is coming.

The execution ground was crowded with people, and countless pairs of eyes were staring at them.

Zhang Yaozhuo was silent for a moment, then smiled and said: "Today, the government sent a lower official to face the execution. If there is any mistake, the lower official will be punished. How will you, the Prince of Guangling County, bear the responsibility?"

Fu Jiuqu raised his eyebrows, "Master Zhang is so eager to kill people and silence them, aren't you afraid of official accountability?"

The murder and silence finally made Zhang Yaozhuo's face change color.

The spice case involved his Tanhua son-in-law and Shi Tang's unsatisfactory nephew. His situation was already very embarrassing. Therefore, when the case was in the Imperial City Department in the early stage, he did not intervene, but secretly thought that "this case is important."

"As a reason, he promoted the joint review of the three departments of the Ministry of Justice, Dali Temple and Yushitai, and emptied the jurisdiction of the Imperial City Department.

The main responsibility of the Imperial City Division is to spy, supervise and arrest. The case has been closed. It is reasonable for the three divisions to jointly review it. However, Zhang Yaozhuo understands Fu Jiuqu's position in Zhao Zhen's heart. He originally had no hope, but unexpectedly it turned out to be a smooth journey.

In the end, He Xu and Shi Tang were detained in prison because of the complicated case and the need to add evidence, while Shi Tang's accomplices Du Zhongqing and Hu Man were sentenced to death.

As Zhang Yaozhuo, the powerful magistrate of Kaifeng Prefecture, he naturally became the prison officer.

The two faced each other tit for tat, with no one willing to show weakness.

Zhang Yaozhuo paused for a moment and asked leisurely: "I have the final say on the execution ground. If I refuse, what will the prince do?"

Fu Jiuqu's eyes were slightly cold, but there was a smile on his face, "Master Zhang, can you give it a try?"

Before he finished speaking, a group of forbidden troops on the execution ground started to move. Zhang Yaozhuo didn't know how many people the Imperial City Division had arranged, but Fu Jiuqu was obviously a little angry. If he insists on going his own way, he may not be able to eat and walk around.

"Okay. The consequences will be borne by the Prince of Guangling."

Fu Jiuqu smiled coldly, raised his eyebrows disdainfully, looked at Du Zhongqing who was sandwiched between two strong men and could not move or speak, and said slowly:

"If you can tell the truth and overturn your original confession, you can avoid death."

Zhang Yaozhuo lowered his eyebrows, "Is Prince Guangling trying to induce a confession?"

Fu Jiuqu looked at him sideways, "Does Mr. Zhang not understand the word truth, or is he deliberately avoiding the word truth?"

After that, he waved his hand and said, "Let him go!"

The sharp blade fell back onto the tray, and a drop of cold sweat slipped from Du Zhongqing's brow.

He took a long breath and looked at Hu Man not far away.

Once upon a time, the two fell in love at first sight, and they talked to each other sincerely. They enjoyed flowers in spring and snow in winter, and slept on the same bed with skin-like skin...

How loving they were back then, how miserable they are now.

"I am helping the evil doers in Du's Spice Shop, and I am willing to be Shi Tang's tool to make money. Not for wealth, not for fame, not for profit. All I want is to find that...smell of my beloved woman."

When he said this, he always stared at Hu Man.

It seems to be saying that Hu Man is the woman he loves.

Hu Man's mouth kept opening and closing without making any sound, but his pupils radiated a desperate light.

"You don't need to say anything. I believe you. I believe everything you said." Du Zhongqing looked at Hu Man, his red eyes suddenly moistened, "I have thought a lot these days. It's not that I don't believe it, but

I can't believe it, I don't dare admit the mistakes I made. Because accepting the pain of making mistakes makes me sadder than death..."

In the Imperial City Department, when all the evidence pointed to Hu Man not having an affair but being set up by Shi Tang, Du Zhongqing did not believe it.

When Fu Jiuqu told him that Shi Tang had been eyeing the two of them for a long time, with the purpose of using him for his own purposes and refining incense girls to make money, win over people's hearts, and win over officials, he still didn't believe it.

Because he has gone too far on the wrong path.

His parents died in vain, so he recognized the thief as his father and regarded Shi Tang as the benefactor who rescued him.

When his lover was humiliated, he recognized his enemy as a friend, listened to one-sided words, killed the "adulterer", carried the murder case, imprisoned his lover, humiliated her and humiliated her...

He is not afraid of death, but he is afraid of facing his demonic self.

Over the past few years, he has been in a state of confusion, seemingly ignoring worldly affairs and focusing on making incense. How has he ever had a day of peace?

However, he is not really stupid, he is just escaping from himself. It would be difficult to live without being stupid...

"I thought that the best outcome would be for us to die together. From now on, you will no longer have to suffer, and I will no longer suffer. Only death is the best relief for us..."

"I originally wanted to die with you, and... our child will be killed with one knife, and there will be no pain from now on... As a family of three, we will go to the underworld, and I will apologize to my parents..."

Du Zhongqing said one sentence after another, and his eyes slowly fell on Hu Man's belly.

"But I can't do it. I can only watch you and our children being stabbed one after another..."

Hu Man gasped and looked at him with red eyes.

"Ah...ah! Ah..."

The shrill and frightened voice was made by her with all her strength.

No one knows what Hu Man wants to express in his heart.

But Du Zhongqing has heard this kind of voice too much in recent years.

"That's it. I finally understand that what I hate is what I love deeply..."

A smile slowly appeared on Du Zhongqing's cold face.

"No matter how hard I try to search, I can never find our original appearance, just like the fragrance you lost... Even if I try a thousand or ten thousand times, it will no longer be the same as before.

I can make all kinds of incense, but I can never find you in my memory."

He said these words very softly and slowly, all to Hu Man.

For those who don't know the facts of the case, it sounds confusing.

But Xin Yi felt very sad.

Du Zhongqing talked a lot, which made the people on the execution platform gradually impatient. However, the Prince of Guangling County listened without changing his expression, and the others were inconvenient to say more. They could only listen patiently to the sour things Du Zhongqing said.

If it's rotten.

"Everything is my fault, I can't help you. In this life, you are really unlucky to meet me. In the next life, remember not to come to Bianjing, let alone let people smell your fragrance, and don't know anyone

The bad guy named Du Zhongqing..."

After Du Zhongqing said this, he suddenly looked up at the sky and took a deep breath.

Then, in full view of everyone, he turned his head and looked at Zhang Yaozhuo.

"I met Mr. Zhang's son several times at Shitang's place."

One stone stirs up thousands of waves.

There was a buzz in the execution ground immediately.

"quiet!"

After another stop, a cold smile appeared on Du Zhongqing's face.

"Before the opening of Du's Incense Shop, I spent a long time refining incense in a courtyard in Shitang. I didn't like to talk and ignored their mundane things. They treated me as a fool and sometimes forgot to avoid taboos.

I...these noble men are greedy and full of tricks, Shi Tang...is just Zhang Lu's lackey."

When Du Zhongqing said this, he thought of what Fu Jiuqu told him in the Imperial City Division, but he didn't want to believe it - Hu Man was raped by Zhang Lu.

The person who implemented it was Shi Tang, and the person behind the design was Zhang Lu.

The traitor he killed with his own hands was just a nurse under Zhang Lu.

For this reason, the Imperial City Secretary personally took out the mummified male body from the incense cellar of his home and asked the corpse to be examined. He also asked the family member who was guarding the hospital to identify the body and make a comparison in person.

Du Zhongqing didn't want to believe it, didn't dare to believe it.

But when he arrived at the execution platform and found that Zhang Lu's father was so vicious that he and Hu Man Lingchi were going to be executed, the death platform finally became clear and he believed everything. He also said all the things he had refused to say...

Fu Jiuqu was just investigating the case, there was no need to deceive him.

"Prince Guangling..."

Du Zhongqing said in a hoarse voice, suddenly fell heavily to the ground and raised his voice:
Chapter completed!
