Chapter 37: This world is full of injustices
At this moment, listening to Qin Wenyuan's story, Cheng Cheng felt that listening to her husband speak was a pleasure for her ears.
She had lived in the palace since she was a child and knew a thing or two about political intrigues, but when it came to conspiracies, she was a complete novice.
Changle was very happy about the intelligence of her husband Qin Wenyuan.
She raised her red lips and said, "Husband, you are so amazing."
Hearing this, Qin Wenyuan didn't take it seriously, because he was often praised by Changle, and he didn't think this time was any different from before.
Despite this, he was still very pleased to be praised by his wife.
"Husband, I didn't expect that you planned so much for our simple trip. I also didn't expect that you could find out so many things through the robbers."
At this moment, Changle was very proud. Then she frowned slightly and asked, "But...husband, I still have a small question."
"what is the problem?"
"That is...husband, why did you keep me in the dark? You made me look so embarrassed just now? It's so embarrassing."
"If I had known that you had a plan , I wouldn't have been so flustered when dealing with things."
Changle's words were very calm, but anyone could hear the dissatisfaction hidden in them.
Qin Wenyuan was slightly stunned, and then he explained stiffly: "This... Actually, I was not sure at the beginning whether they would be so cruel."
"So, in order to make you worry less, I didn't tell you."
Hearing this, Changle rolled her eyes and said, "What about your martial arts? Why did you keep it from me? I thought you were not good at martial arts."
Qin Wenyuan's mouth twitched, and after thinking for a while, he continued, "You didn't ask, Madam."
Forehead!
Changle was stunned.
She didn't expect that her husband was such a cunning person.
When I asked these questions, I originally intended to accuse them, but I didn't expect that all of them were resolved one by one. I really don't know what I can do.
"Ahem, Madam, it's getting late. We have to rush to Lantian County as soon as possible, otherwise Boss Liu will be waiting anxiously."
Qin Wenyuan quickly changed the subject. He gently held Changle's waist with both hands and half-heartedly helped her walk towards the carriage.
And so, the group set off again, leaving the woods littered with corpses.
Unlike the time we came here, this time there were a few more guards.
The rest of the journey was smooth sailing, and they finally arrived in Lantian County before dark.
After spending half an hour handing over the tea to Liu Yongyi, the transaction was successfully completed.
Qin Wenyan got what he wished for and received the remaining 370 taels of payment.
After the handover, the group went to a restaurant to have a meal and then returned to Chang'an the next day.
In fact, Lantian County is not far from Chang'an. If you turn back after the transaction is completed, you can return to Chang'an at about midnight.
But after what happened at noon, Qin Wenyuan was not willing to take the risk.
Who knows, there might be many ambushes lying in wait on the way back.
Restaurant.
Qin Wenyuan asked Rabbit and Dog to order food, while he took the rest of the people to find a seat.
"Madam, please remember to keep the three hundred and seventy taels in the car when you return." Qin Wenyuan said this as soon as he sat down.
Changle smiled and said, "Of course. Now, our family is finally not spending more than it earns."
After deducting the costs, the net profit from this order was about three hundred taels of silver, which was a hundred times more than the one tael of silver earned from opening the store yesterday.
The reason for such a big difference is mainly because yesterday's trial was free, so a lot of free users came, making the already poor families even worse off.
If there were no tasting, the income would definitely increase several times, but there would also be a possibility of missing out on today's big customers. It can be said that there are pros and cons.
The income of three hundred taels also made Changle's little grievance in her heart disappear, and she no longer complained about Qin Wenyuan hiding many things.
What a little money-grubber!
Then.
The food was served very quickly, mostly noodles, and in various shapes and sizes, which made people's appetite increase at the first sight.
Soon, they were chopping it into large chunks.
Just as everyone was eating happily, suddenly some noisy noises were heard from the street below.
Qin Wenyuan, his wife Changle, and Maotu and his group subconsciously looked down and saw a prison van passing through the street. In the van was a man who was being paraded through the streets.
"Alas, is this a complete conviction?"
At this moment, a customer in the restaurant suddenly spoke.
"The person convicted yesterday was sentenced to death. After three days of parading through the streets, as long as the Dali Temple in Chang'an approves the case and the Ministry of Justice has no objection, the death penalty will be carried out."
"Do you think Li Haiyang will kill someone?"
"Him? He's such an honest man that he doesn't even dare to kill a chicken, so how can he kill someone? You must be kidding me."
"But our county magistrate has already said that the evidence is conclusive!"
"There are clearly three suspects, and none of them has been ruled out. Just because Li Haiyang was bullied by the deceased, the county magistrate decided that Li Haiyang killed someone out of spite? This is really a joke!"
"But our county magistrate... has already made a decision!"
"Yes, the county magistrate has made a decision. Li Haiyang is doomed."
Everyone was talking at once, and the discussion was heated.
Even though the prison van had gone far away, it did not stop.
And from what they said, Li Haiyang seemed to be wronged.
Changle listened, and after comparing Li Haiyang who was beaten beyond recognition in the prisoner car, she looked at Qin Wenyuan and sighed, "Husband, there are really many injustices in this world."
"Husband, in your opinion, does Li Haiyang really kill people?"
Compared to believing the words of the people of Lantian County, Changle would rather believe the judgment of her husband.
This is true even if these people are more familiar with Li Haiyang.
Hearing this, Qin Wenyuan also sighed, "We don't know the truth yet. They said that the conviction was just made yesterday, and the case file should not have been sent to the Dali Temple yet. If there is any chance of a turnaround, it will only be within a few days."
"Otherwise, once the files are sent to Lantian County, no one will be able to protect Li Haiyang."
"but……"
He paused and said, "But since the local people all think that Li Haiyang was wrongly accused and could not have killed anyone, and that there are doubts in this case... then maybe there is something wrong with this case itself."
The closer you are to the locals, the more you know the inside story .
And it's not just one person who says this, many people say this, so basically, there are some real problems.
