Chapter 216
A general in black armor walked up to the young man sitting on the chair, whispered a few words in his ear, the young man nodded and stood up.

The people watching all around immediately took a step back involuntarily, and the county magistrate and Chen Qi who were kneeling on the ground immediately lay on the ground and shivered.

Chen Wei glanced at the two of them indifferently, and said: "

"Officials are not good officials. Wearing a black gauze hat will frustrate the common people."

Standing beside Chen Wei, Sun Hou nodded, and immediately walked out of two armored soldiers, took off his black hat, and the poor fat magistrate was stripped naked, tied up and hung up.

Then Chen Wei walked to Chen Qi's side and said something softly.

"Chopped."

The armored soldier behind him raised his sword and dropped it without saying a word.

Chen Qi, the street ruffian who runs rampant in Lintong County and no one dares to offend, has not yet uttered a sound of begging for mercy, his head fell to the ground, and blood spattered several feet away.

The madam was so frightened that her crotch was wet, and she cried like crazy.

Chen Wei walked up to the old lady and said softly, "Don't cry, answer my question, and you can go."

The madam stopped crying immediately.

"The shopkeeper Liu bought a woman from you, is it her?"

"Yes, yes, yes..." The bustard nodded desperately.

"Let's go."

The madam ran like a lame old hen.

Chen Wei finally walked up to the beautiful woman kneeling on the ground, and asked softly, "Your name is Wang Weixiu?"

The woman nodded indifferently.

Chen Wei returned to the chair and sat down again, and said to her: "Stand up and talk."

The woman named Wang Weixiu stood up, put her hands on her belly, and looked at the ground indifferently with her water-cut eyes.

"Father is a squire, and the family property is rich. After he died of illness, the elder brother who was addicted to gambling took care of the family. He lost all the family property within a year, and finally sold his younger sister to the kiln to pay off the debt... From a rich daughter to a humble slut, and so on. No one can accept the contrast." Chen Wei quietly looked at the woman in front of him.

Wang Weixiu stood quietly, unmoved.

Chen Wei narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "Anyone would be wronged by such an experience. But where are the poor people in the world? I have never seen a daughter of the Hou family who is as rich as gold and leaves, and I have never seen a woman who is so miserable and humble?"

"I know a woman. Her father is a high-ranking official. How old is she? I don't know. I only know that after her father died, Dong Zhuo wanted to recognize her as his daughter. Wasn't she sad when her father died? Wasn't she sad? What was the result, hehe , She ran to be a scumbag, a scumbag that you think is despicable and despised. I don’t know if you have heard her name, but no one in the world who knows her name has ever scolded her.”

"Of course, not everyone is so lucky. I just want you to know that the fate of many people is rough. What matters is how you view yourself and what path you choose to take."

Wang Weixiu was stubborn and silent.

Chen Wei said flatly: "If you feel that outsiders can't understand your humiliation after everything you have encountered, well, I will give you a knife, and you choose to die."

"If you don't want to die, don't pretend to be miserable in front of me."

Wang Weixiu's face turned pale, and she bit her lips tightly.

"Don't want to marry a fool? Yes, everyone here is full of smart people, but which one doesn't turn this smart into a belly full of bad water? Complain? Who doesn't complain? Those women in the brothel Is it born to be the best? They don't complain? Why wasn't I born in Houmen, why is my fate so rough? Why can't I be with the person I like?"

"I don't believe that fate can't be changed, because I've been playing with fate and come here. If I think that fate can't be violated, I have died countless times. But before changing your fate, the first thing you must do is to be calm accept the arrangement of fate."

"I don't know what your past is, and I don't know whether you are willing or not. I only know how much cynicism, how much grievance and patience a father saved for the 200 taels of silver. In the eyes of others, you are only worth 200 taels Yinzi, but in my eyes, you shoulder the life of a father!"

"You were sold by your brother, and then bought by others. This is your fate."

"I won't force you to smile and flatter thousands of men in a brothel, or to be a fool's wife in peace, you choose yourself."

After Chen Wei finished speaking, he turned and left.

Wang Weixiu stood there in a daze, her eyes misty and rainy.

In the pharmacy, Er Zaizi watched over his father's body.

Chen Wei walked in and said softly, "Let's go home."

……

Three days of vigil.

The second cub, dressed in linen and filial piety, knelt in front of the altar of his father, Shopkeeper Liu.Wang Weixiu's slender figure appeared in front of the altar, and knelt down beside Er Zaizi.Chen Wei personally covered her with a hemp scarf.

On the day of the funeral, it rained heavily.

On Mount Li, in front of Liu Gui's tomb, there were four people and a dog.

Er Zaizi knelt in the middle without crying or smirking.Chen Wei silently knelt on the left side of Er Zaizi and kowtowed deeply three times.Wang Weixiu cried heartbreakingly, and it was herself who cried.

Sun Hou stood on the edge of the cliff and raised his arms.

At the foot of Lishan Mountain, two thousand tiger and cardinal cavalry were lined up neatly on both sides of the river bank, and the two thousand halberds knocked on the ground, making a roar.

After a long time, Sun Hou lowered his arms, and the two thousand tiger and cardinal cavalry left quietly, as if they had never been there.

Seven days later, Chen Wei personally shaved off the second cub's unkempt long hair.

"Second boy, your ancestor's original surname was Xing, and I changed your name for you." Chen Wei said softly.

"Father said that I want to listen to you. Whatever you call me is my name."

Chen Wei handed the sword to Sun Hou, walked up to Er Zaizi, saw Er Zaizi's majestic face with short hair, his huge and strong body was like a general descended from heaven, and smiled slightly: "Then it's called..."

"Xingtian!"

At the foot of Lishan Mountain, the tall Fengzhong stands in the night.

Not far from the sealed tomb of Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum, Wei Ji, Sima Yi and a dozen others stood in a depression, looking up at the dark sealed tomb under the starry sky.
