Chapter 245 Execution Ground

Author: Egret Ye Qilin

Yang Mu hugged Qiuqiu and said silently: "I'll go too!"

Yang Zhen immediately said: "No!"

My daughter is just a fifteen-year-old girl. What if she is frightened by the scene and has nightmares when she comes back at night?

But Yang Mu insisted: "It is me who is harmed by the Miao family. If I don't see it, how can I feel at ease?"

In fact, she went to see it on behalf of the original owner.

Yang Zhen opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything to refute, and instead said, "Then I'll go with you."



Since everyone came to congratulate Yang Mu on his new move, they had lunch at Furong Island.

Yang Zhen had something to do and left in the middle of the morning.

The small kitchen on Furong Island tastes pretty good. Just after lunch, the maid from the second room came to deliver gifts.

Everyone in the second room gave the gift together, a pot of orchids carved from jade and white jade.

Although it's not worth a lot of money, it's still a good second wife.

In addition to the second bedroom, other masters also sent people to give gifts, and even Aunt Luan also sent a jar of tea.

Yang Mu ordered Daishan to deliver the cakes just baked at noon to each room as a return gift.

In the afternoon, when the cicadas were chirping loudest, someone from Prince Ding's palace sent a cage of pigeons and a woman who knew how to raise pigeons.

Yang Mu remembered what Lin Xiao had said last time about sending a carrier pigeon, and was curious. That day, he sent a letter to Lin Xiao Feige, telling him about the execution of the Miao family tomorrow.

Flying pigeons delivered letters really quickly, but within half an hour, the reply came.

Lin Xiao said that he would also go to the execution ground tomorrow.

Yang Mu looked at Lin Xiao's reply and rushed to write a small note. She felt like she was passing notes behind the teacher's back when she was a child.



The second room here got the cake. Mrs. Sheng frowned at the exquisite cake and said to her daughter beside her: "Sister Zhi, do you think this place is poisonous?"

Yang Zhi snorted disdainfully and said, "How dare she? She doesn't have the final say in the Yang family's backyard!"

As he said that, he picked up a piece of cake, took a bite, and was stunned.

Sheng said in disgust: "Isn't it delicious?"

Yang Zhi shook her head fiercely and said: "It's so delicious. Is this really made by the country girl herself?"

On the day of the appointment by Prince Ding, the whole Yang family had already known about the fact that the eldest daughter made cakes with her own hands and won the praise of Prince Ding. Thanks to the special publicity of Aunt Song and Mrs. Bao.

Sheng said dubiously: "No way?"

She also took a taste, and then she was stunned, and she and her daughter looked at each other.

Yang Zhi said: "She said she wanted to open some kind of dim sum shop. Isn't it just selling this?"

Wouldn’t that compare to several famous pastry shops in Beijing?

Sheng rolled his eyes and said, "That's a good thing!"

Yang Zhi looked at her mother incomprehensively, could this be a good thing? Once this kind of pastry spreads in the capital, wouldn't the country girl make a lot of money?

Sheng sneered and said: "Several hundred-year-old brands in the capital all have powerful people behind them. Even the Tao family behind 'Tao Ji' is a member of the Tao family of the Eastern Empress Dowager, and 'Su Ji' is the branch of our Sheng family in the capital."

Yang Zhi's eyes suddenly lit up and she said: "Yes, yes, yes, my mother wrote a letter to my cousin, so that the country girl's shop cannot be opened at all!"

The corners of Sheng's lips curled up and she said, "That's right! It's best to unite with the Tao family."

There will be a banquet in the Tao family in a few days, and all she has to do is discuss it with the mistress of the Tao family.



Aunt Tingyuxuanluan also received the cake, and she sat on the stone table next to the bamboo forest with Gui's mother and Cuiping, drinking tea and nibbling.

Gui's mother sighed: "I didn't expect that besides knowing martial arts, the eldest lady is also very handy."

Cuiping said: "The eldest lady is a capable person. I heard from the maid on Furong Island that the eldest lady opened a pastry shop like this before she returned to Beijing, and the business is very good."

Gui's mother said: "More than that? I heard that she also opened a hot pot restaurant, and the business is very prosperous."

Aunt Luan sighed quietly and said: "It is said that women are born weak and need to rely on men to survive. I used to believe this, but now that I have met the eldest lady, I no longer believe it."

Gui's mother nodded and agreed: "The eldest lady came from scratch. I heard that she even bought a yard in Baiyun County, which cost a lot of money! I don't know how she did it?"

Aunt Luan smiled slowly and said: "No matter how she did it, she has opened up a way for the women who support women's households."

She turned to Cuiping and said: "Tomorrow is the execution day of the Miao family, and the housekeeper is among them. If you want to go and watch the execution, just ask the crown prince's wife or the eldest lady to take you there."

It is simply impossible for a powerless servant to go out.

Cuiping's eyes were red and she clenched her fists.

She never imagined that she had endured her anger for so many years without finding a chance to take revenge.

But as soon as the eldest lady took action, it was solved so quickly.

Tomorrow is the day she will avenge her sister!



The next day.

Outside the vegetable market execution ground in the south of the capital, people gathered on three floors inside and outside to watch the excitement. Most of them were men, but there were also daring women.

On the execution ground, seven prisoners were kneeling and tied up, preparing to be executed.

Miao Jinbao, Wei Shi, Miao Zhang, Miao Jun, Miao Qianyue, Xin Mama and the old housekeeper.

At this moment, all seven people's faces were pale and their whole bodies were trembling.

Among the officers, the evil deeds of several people were read aloud, and everyone started talking about it.

During this time, the Miao family's actions had long been spread among the people. Everyone knew that the Miao family's crimes were extremely evil, but they also knew that they had done so many things.

After hearing the verdict of the Miao family, everyone applauded.

Especially the family members of the victims who had been bullied by the Miao family also came to the scene, and they screamed the loudest.

Because the sentences of the seven people also included the punishment of rods and amputation of limbs, these sentences must be executed first before the time for execution has arrived.

First, make the board.

Miao Jinbao has three hundred sticks; Miao Zhang has two hundred sticks; Miao Jun has two hundred sticks.

The person who struck the blow was an official from the Jingzhao Yin Mansion who specialized in torture. He was very experienced. No matter how much the beating was, it was guaranteed to make the prisoner miserable, but it would never kill him.

In public, the Miao father and son were stripped of their pants, pressed to the ground and beaten.

This kind of late gaze made Miao Zhang, who entered Bai Zewei early and became a hundred households, extremely sad and angry.

He wanted to bite his tongue and commit suicide, but with two big walnuts stuffed in his mouth, he couldn't succeed at all.

This is a consistent rule at Dashun execution ground: walnuts are stuffed into prisoners to prevent them from committing suicide.

The "crackling" sound of the big board hitting the skin was very obvious in the noisy scene.

The people watching covered their mouths, smiled and pointed, and some shouted happily.

On the carriage parked behind everyone, the curtains were lifted on both sides, and two heads were exposed, it was none other than Tang and Yang Mu.

Cuiping, who was sitting on the carriage shaft, asked: "Mrs. Prince, eldest lady, I would like to take a closer look."

Yang Mudao: "Go ahead."

Cuiping responded, jumped off the carriage, and squeezed in through the crowd.
