Chapter 17 Crucifixion

Chapter 17 Crucifixion
Wang stared at Xie Lan as if she had seen a ghost, her face as pale as paper.

Sun Yongkui's pupils trembled violently.

Listening to the buzz of people's discussions, I felt panicky.

But he was a man after all, and he was in charge of the business of Yuhai Pavilion. He had seen the world and quickly calmed down.

He clasped his hands together, bowed to Xie Lan, and apologized sincerely, "Miss, this matter is Sun's fault. I shouldn't have seen Madam Wang's husband die tragically. I was angry for a moment and thought that it was really the girl who killed him for money without any verification.

"I, Sun, sincerely apologize to the girl. I was too reckless and wrongly blamed her. I'm sorry!"

Wang was originally in a panic, but after listening to Sun Yongkui's words, she managed to calm down.

With red eyes and holding back the grief, he bowed to Xie Lanying, "Miss, I am sorry for you. If it weren't for my husband's tragic death and my tears of grief, I wouldn't have mistaken your jadeite.

It's normal for the girl to be angry. I apologize to you.

This is all a misunderstanding. You are a kind girl, you won't blame me, right?"

Xie Lan was so angry that he almost laughed.

In front of everyone in the inn, she was accused of seducing a married man and murdering for money, and now she wants to settle the matter with just a simple misunderstanding.

He also wants to morally blackmail her.

If she doesn't forgive, will she still scold her for having a vicious heart?

I really think she is a good person.

Xie Lan sneered, "Wang, you are so vicious, aren't you afraid of ghosts knocking on your door in the middle of the night? It's obvious that you are greedy for money and want to put the blame on me and put the shit pot on my head.

Why should I forgive you? Who do you think you are?"

"Miss, yes, I was wrong." Wang's body was shaky, her face was pale, and tears were rolling down her cheeks. But she was secretly happy in her heart.

Go ahead and curse.

The more harshly this bitch curses, the more it highlights her innocence and misery.

She just couldn't believe that no one would plead for her when she was so miserable and pitiful.

After she successfully escapes this time, she will definitely teach that bitch a lesson.

Although Wang's face was swollen, she was facing Xie Lan at the moment. Everyone could only see her weak and helpless back. Her sobbing and grief made many merchants feel heartbroken.

"Young lady, forgive others when you can. Madam Wang didn't mean to blame you. She was just too sad about her husband's tragic death and her eyes were blurry. That's why she mistook your jadeite."

"Little girl, you are still young, you have to be more generous and don't learn from those stingy shrews. Don't make such a big deal out of a small misunderstanding."

"That's right, Madam Wang's husband was killed by villains. She is so pitiful, how can you embarrass her again?"

Xie Lan glanced at the first merchant who was fighting for justice and smiled meaningfully, "Brother, your face is so red. You are going to be a father, which is really a cause for celebration.

"Brother, you are right. You should forgive others when you can. Your wife didn't intend to have an affair. It's just that your body is useless, so she had no choice but to borrow someone else's seed to carry on your family line. You won't blame her, right?"

As soon as Xie Lan finished speaking, someone exclaimed in surprise, "Oh my, you're going to be a father? Your wife is having an affair and is pregnant with a bastard, and you still have the mind to be kind to other women."

The loud laughter and strange looks made the customers angry and embarrassed.

He subconsciously wanted to refute, but suddenly remembered that every time he did that, he could not last more than a cup of tea.

When he thought of his wife's abnormal behavior some time ago, he was furious. He clenched his fists and turned away. At this moment, he had no time to pity Wang.
Seeing that the merchant couldn't wait to go back and catch the adulterer, Xie Lan turned to the second person.

"This brother is really broad-minded. You can even treat the child born by your concubine and your lover as your own. You are really generous. I admire you."

The other person's eyes turned red with anger, and he wanted to yell at him, "What nonsense!" But he couldn't help but think of the similar faces of his youngest son and his best friend.

Damn bitch, you dare to have an affair with someone else, just wait for him.

Seeing another person leave angrily, those who knew Xie Lan knew that the fortune-telling by the fairy lady had worked again. Someone who wanted to watch the fun shouted excitedly, "Oh, fairy lady, there are so many big news today. What's the next one? Tell me, tell me."

The third merchant who spoke was a little confused when he heard Xie Lan's words. Only now did he understand what was going on.

He instinctively felt uneasy and turned around to leave, but unfortunately he was a step too late.

"And you, your fiancée just gave her cousin some money and clothes because she saw that he was in trouble, but you beat her up. She was beaten so badly by you, why did you kill her and bury her in the side yard?"

The merchant's brain exploded and he stared at Xie Lan.

He did it without anyone knowing, so how did she know about it?
There was an uproar at the scene, but County Magistrate Tong waved his hand impatiently, "Come here, arrest him and take him back to the yamen to await trial."

Although County Magistrate Tong was afraid of that girl, he couldn't help but feel secretly happy.

With these two cases completed today, he can add another chapter to his political achievements.

Promotion is just around the corner.

Now that all the troublemakers are gone, I can get on with exposing the gossip.

"Boss Sun, you are so quiet, are you planning to abandon your lover and escape alone?"

Sun Yongkui's heart sank. He originally wanted to take advantage of the chaos to leave.

Unexpectedly, he was discovered by the Taoist nun as soon as he moved, and his retreat was blocked by the guards of the rich young man.

Sun Yongkui glanced at Wang cryptically.

Wang's eyes turned red and she knelt down towards Xie Lan.

"Girl, no matter how wrong you are, it's all my fault. If you are angry, just take it out on me.

I hope you won’t blame Mr. Sun. He just wanted to tell me about my husband’s purchase of jade out of kindness.”

"Whatever anger I have, I can vent it on you. Don't worry...I will return all the anger I have suffered to you without leaving any residue."

Xie Lan was still smiling, but the words he said made Wang so angry that she vomited blood.

This bitch, she has already given up on suing and even knelt down to beg her humbly, why is she still not giving in.

Although Wang cried miserably, no one dared to help her. They were all afraid of provoking the evil star and following the same fate as the three people before them.

Xie Lan was very satisfied that no irrelevant people were complaining.

She wanted to nail Wang to death with a hammer.

"Sir, the one who killed Chen Hongan was not someone else, but his wife Wang."

"You are slandering me. My husband and I have never had a quarrel since we got married. And I was visiting my cousin yesterday and was not in the inn. How could I have killed someone?"

Xie Lan sneered, "You didn't quarrel with your husband, but you had an affair with Sun Yongkui without telling him. You said you were visiting relatives yesterday, but you actually went to Yuhai Pavilion.

Your husband believed it and went to Yuhai Pavilion to buy you a headdress, but he accidentally caught you having an affair. Your husband really loves you, so he didn't make a scene on the spot, but endured the humiliation and went back to the inn to drink alone."

"After you had an affair with Mr. Sun, you accidentally found your husband's purse that he had accidentally dropped. Knowing that your affair had been exposed, you decided to go all out and secretly bought arsenic back to the inn. While he was drunk and unconscious, you put arsenic in his wine and poisoned him to death."

Sun Yongkui's face suddenly changed. "Even if the young lady is angry that I testified for Madam Wang, you can't slander me like this. Madam Wang and I are innocent, and my wife and I love each other very much. I will never do anything to let her down."

Xie Lan ignored his sophistry and said directly to County Magistrate Tong, "Sir, Wang and Sun Yongkui have been having an affair for a long time. Yuhai Pavilion has Wang's clothes, and the jade stones purchased by Chen Hongan were all given to Sun Yongkui by Wang and placed in Yuhai Pavilion.

If you don't believe it, send someone to check and you'll know the truth."

 Do you have tickets? If not, I'll ask again later...
