Husband has a sweetheart

Chapter 28 Retrial
He Qi, who was kneeling on the ground waiting for a knife, looked at Fang Mo in astonishment.

The executioner had never encountered such a situation before, so he quickly looked at the supervisor.

The supervisor was furious, pointed at Fang Mo and shouted, "Arrest this troublemaker! You dare to disturb the court, and you clearly want to rebel and rob the prisoner!"

"Why do you arrest people? Can't you even cry for injustice?" Fang Mo's senior brothers shouted loudly.

"We didn't rob prisoners! We just came to complain!"

"Our senior brother was wronged!"

Zhang Yuqing squeezed to the front and shouted loudly: "According to the laws of Daxia, those who complain about injustice in the court must have their case remanded for retrial!"

Fang Mo and several senior brothers shouted hoarsely: "Remand for retrial! Remand for retrial!"

The supervisor was stunned, and the secretary next to him hurriedly whispered something in his ear.

"Who was calling for injustice just now?" the supervisor asked.

Fang Mo stood up, "It's me!"

The supervisor looked him up and down, "Do you know what will happen to you if the case is retried and the original verdict is the same?"

"I know! It's just a knife! I will go to Huangquan Road with my senior brother, and we will walk together, so we will not be lonely!" Fang Mo said loudly.

He Qi was agitated, and shouted in a hoarse voice: "I am not wronged, I plead guilty! My lord, don't listen to his nonsense!"

His voice was quickly drowned out by the shouts of "remand for retrial" from everyone in Fang Mo.

The group of cold-blooded and numb spectators followed Fang Mozhong's brothers and shouted "remand for retrial".

For a while, the court was full of deafening "remand for retrial".

The prison officer was in a hurry, slammed the table, pointed at Fang Mo and shouted to the officials: "Put him in shackles and escort him back with this prisoner!"

Two officials came over holding the wooden shackles, Fang Mo put on the shackles calmly, and was dragged by the officials to the prison car.

He Qi, who was kneeling on the ground, was also called up by the officials, put on the shackles again, and got into the same prison car with Fang Mo.

The brothers and sisters sat facing each other, looking at each other without saying a word, and finally they were reunited.

He Qi's blind old lady couldn't see anything, and her ears were buzzing. Only Wang Chunniang was standing by her side, comforting her, saying that Brother He Qi would be safe and sound.

Fang Mo's brothers and sisters ran after the prison car for a few steps, watching Fang Mo and He Qi get farther and farther away from her until they disappeared into a small black spot in the distance.

A flash of lightning flashed, and then there was a thunder in the sky, and the sky and the earth were shaken by the explosion.

Then the rain poured down.

Luo Danyang took off his outer robe, covered Luo Danxia and Zhang Yuqing and ran to the bullock cart.

After getting into the bullock cart, Zhang Yuqing told the brothers Fang Mo who were chasing after him through the window: "What should I do, Fang Mo has explained to you clearly?"

Brother Fang Mo said in a hurry: "It's all clear, let's split up and act separately!"

"Miss Zhang, can this really be done? If not..." A man asked worriedly. If not, not only He Qi would die, but that kid Fang Mo would also die!

"Fang Mo has already entered the prison. This is the end of the matter. We have no way out. Whether he and He Zhuangshi can survive depends on everyone's help!" Zhang Yuqing poked her head out of the bullock cart, her eyes were firm, and she clasped her fists together. He said in a word, "It depends on man!"

Everyone shouted: "Yes, we have no other choice but to do our best!"

"Miss Zhang is not related to us, but she can help us in this way, why are we hesitating?"

Zhang Yuqing smiled and said: "It's not the last moment, everyone, don't give up!" She pointed to the sky and said with a smile: "God is helping us!"

"Isn't it!" A clever man patted his thigh and shouted, "God's magic field has manifested! He must know that Brother He is very wronged!"

Luo Danyang looked at Zhang Yuqing intently.

The heavy rain drenched her face, and the few strands of hair on her forehead were wet and stuck to her fair cheeks, she was a bit embarrassed, but the firm expression in her eyes, and that confident and bright smile made her look so beautiful in his eyes at this moment. , The beauty is like a painting.

She was prettier and more radiant than any girl he had ever seen.

"Second sister, get in the car quickly!" Zhang Yuqing greeted Wang Chunniang.

Wang Chunniang shook her head and said, "I see that the old lady of the He family is dying..."

Zhang Yuqing opened her eyes wide.

"I'll stay and take care of the old lady! No one is in charge, I'm afraid it won't work." Wang Chunniang's eyes on the top of the scarf flashed with tenderness and compassion, "If He Zhuangshi can wash away his grievances, maybe she can last until He Zhuangshi returns. See you at home."

Braving the heavy rain, the bullock cart staggered back to the capital.

Luo Danxia asked Zhang Yuqing worriedly: "Do you really have a way to prove that He Qi is wronged?"

"There is indeed a way, but there is only a [-]% certainty." Zhang Yuqing said frankly.

Luo Danxia said in surprise: "Ah? What should we do? If you can't prove it, even that Fang Mo will be beheaded!"

Zhang Yuqing smiled slightly, "Do your best and obey the destiny."

Fang Mo is Lu Wei's personal servant, if he is beheaded by the government, where will Lu Wei's face be put?

Naturally, everyone is happy if this matter can be accomplished, and Zhang Yuqing's bet is that even if this matter fails and He Qi cannot be rescued in the end, Lu Wei can come back before Fang Mo is executed, at least get Fang Mo out.

Fang Mo didn't commit any unforgivable crimes, but it's not a joke that a son of a princess who is favored by the royal family can't find a reckless fool!

Luo Danyang nodded and said: "There is nothing in this world that is [-]% sure, and everything has accidents. Cousin Yuqing is right, do your best, obey the destiny, and have no regrets in your heart."

In less than a day, traffickers in the capital, people in the market, even officials and family members heard about a strange incident, and the whole capital was talking about it with enthusiasm.

A death-row prisoner who had been dragged to the execution ground to beheaded was stopped by his kind and righteous junior at the execution ground at the moment when the executioner's sword was about to fall, and the case was retried in Jingzhao Mansion three days later.

Even the storyteller in the teahouse spoke vividly and compiled many storytelling jokes. The whole process was full of climaxes and thrills, from the visions falling from the sky, the swords keeping people under the knife, and finally even the gods were completely angry and sent down the thunder of the nine heavens, Plead for the condemned criminal.After a day of word of mouth, the version has progressed to the point where there are still tens of thousands of birds howling and screaming in unison, the blood on the execution ground merged into a word "injustice" and so on...

People at that time believed in ghosts and gods, and all kinds of true and false magical legends gave the whole case a strong mysterious color.If it was said that Fang Mo was willing to cut his whole body to save his brother, everyone in the capital would have believed that He Qi was wronged half a dozen times, and the theory of ghosts and gods would have made everyone believe that He Qi must have been wronged.

Besides, even though He Qi is poor, he is not stingy with helping others, and there are many neighbors who have received his kindness.

Although there are despicable people in this world who fall into trouble, there are more people who are willing to lend a helping hand to help others in times of crisis.

Three days later, the dark clouds cleared, the rain cleared, and the golden sun filled the earth.

Jingzhao Mansion opened a court to retry He Qi's case. The entire main street of Jingzhao Mansion was besieged and crowded with people. Everyone was looking forward to the opening of the court hearing.

Fang Mo's brothers and sisters arranged manpower everywhere, shouting loudly: "Avenge justice for the people! Avenge justice for the people!"

Shouts of "justice for the people" were deafening, echoing over the capital.

Luo Danyang led Zhang Yuqing and Luo Danxia to the front of the court with difficulty. Fang Mo's senior brother pushed He Qi's blind mother's cart and Wang Chunniang was already waiting there, and they had reserved a place for them.

After several days of careful care by Wang Chunniang, Mrs. He's complexion improved a lot, her body was clean, and her gray and disheveled hair was neatly combed.

"Thank you, Second Sister." Zhang Yuqing said while holding Wang Chunniang's hand.

Wang Chunniang pursed her lips and smiled, "Don't say that, I can only do what I can."

Luo Danxia complained: "Why are there so many people! It almost squeezed me to death! It's much more than the people who watched the beheading that day!"

Zhang Yuqing said: "The people who came today are different from those who saw the beheading that day."

"Aren't they all just watching the fun?" Luo Danxia asked suspiciously.

Zhang Yuqing shook her head, "It's different...the people that day were a group of idlers and hooligans, they were just rabble who wanted to see bloody and exciting scenes, but the people who came today are ordinary people." Zhang Yuqing looked around and said slowly: "They want to What you watch is not excitement, but fairness and justice."

Everyone has the potential to become He Qi who was innocently wronged.

Everyone doesn't want to be He Qi who is dragged to the guillotine to die in a daze.

What they came here to watch was not the excitement, not He Qi who wanted to kill him, but that there was fairness and justice in this world, which could allow the grievances of He Qi, a powerless and low-level person like He Qi, to be publicized, and He Qi to be so honest. The people in Fen returned home safely.

If someone is dead, the government can judge the gourd case by the gourd monk, ignore human life, and use innocent people like them to close the case, and chop off the head of an innocent person for business?An ordinary person may be helpless, waiting for a cruel fate to come, but what about the tens of thousands of people in the capital?
The streets were full of people, and the servants of the Jingzhao Mansion couldn't drive them away. No one wanted to leave. Everyone was waiting for a result, a result that satisfied all of them.

This case is no longer a simple homicide case, but a public case in which almost tens of thousands of people in the capital participated collectively.

The time was getting later and later, but the officials who were supposed to enter the lobby to hear the case had not appeared for a long time. It seemed that they already knew how difficult the case was.

"Why haven't the officials come out yet? I don't know what happened to the two of them!" Fang Mo's senior brother waited anxiously and couldn't help muttering.

Zhang Yuqing was calm and relaxed, her smile deepened.

The later the officials who tried the case came out, the greater the possibility of overturning the case.They must be hiding in the inner hall of the yamen and anxiously discussing countermeasures to see how to hear the case, so as to give an explanation to the public and resolve the monstrous anger of the people in the capital.

Luo Danyang understood what Zhang Yuqing meant, raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Yuqing, how sure are you of rescuing Fang and Mo now?"
