When that fat County Government Official was dragged up, he hid his right hand in his sleeve, looking completely disheveled.
Bai Zhi’er saw that his face was also bruised and swollen.
The fat County Government Official seemed quite shocked, as he was held by the Xiu Luo Envoy into the courtroom, immediately kneeling on the ground.
He looked up and instinctively first glanced at Feng Fuce.
The other’s eyebrows and eyes were cold, and his long eyes were dark and indifferent.
Feng Fuce quietly played with the jade ring on his thumb.
That well-defined, slender and handsome hand had just yesterday broken every finger joint of the fat County Government Official’s right hand.
The County Government Official also knew that this jade-faced Asura figure was none other than the famous Marquis Wan!
Feng Fuce had warned him.
If he didn’t clear things up, then he would surely break every bone in the County Government Official’s body, piece by piece.
And so, before the Minister of the Ministry of Justice could ask, the County Government Official was already trembling with his lips, his face deathly pale, confessing everything.
"Back when Yang Zhuang died, his wife came to the government office in a fuss. Upon learning this, the Wei Family immediately sent someone overnight with gold and silver."
"Master Wei told me that accepting bribes was a capital crime, so he came up with an idea to send his wet nurse’s grandson to the government office as a Government Official."
"Every month, half of the Government Official’s salary would be mine. Occasionally, that Government Official would also bring some good things, saying they were seized goods from outside, but actually, they were benefits given to me by Master Wei."
Bai Zhi’er’s cheeks puffed up, her black, lively eyes filled with anger.
"Do you know that after you colluded together, the dead man’s wife couldn’t find a way to file a complaint and in desperation, took her own life!"
"Indirectly, you caused a death!"
The County Government Official also realized that this was Princess Cui Cuo.
He quickly kowtowed to admit his wrongdoing: "I am guilty of ten heinous crimes, utterly sinful, please Your Highness, quell your anger!"
Although the County Government Official’s voice was anxious, he still harbored a bit of luck in his heart.
Marquis Wan had told him that the Wei Family was the mastermind behind this case, and he was just an accomplice.
And if he confessed everything clearly, the Marquis could save his life.
The Minister of the Ministry of Justice took down what the County Government Official said.
Below the court, Wei Zian was drenched in sweat, his eyes filled with fear and anxiety.
With this situation, he was certain to be convicted.
Wei Zian turned his head, his body trembling as he looked at his father, his eyes filled with a plea for help.
His father surely wouldn’t abandon him!
But, Master Wei’s expression had turned extremely grim and subtle since the County Government Official appeared.
The Minister of the Ministry of Justice organized the current testimony.
Years of political experience told him that Wei Zian’s charges were not small.
Murdering brutally in public, violating the criminal law.
And his father, Master Wei, was suspected of bribery, possibly even buying an official position!
Don’t remember that a Government Official is a minor position, but it’s still a ninth rank official, entitled to receive salary from the court.
The Minister of the Ministry of Justice spoke sternly, "If that’s the case, then..."
Before he could finish his words, Master Wei suddenly erupted: "You traitorous son!"
Suddenly, Master Wei drew the long knife from the waist of the Xiu Luo Envoy beside him.
Then, with a swift step, he rushed over and directly plunged it into Wei Zian’s heart!
In that instant, like a spark from a flint stone, Master Wei’s action took everyone by surprise!
Everyone was stunned.
Originally, Feng Fuce had a chance to stop him.
But instinctively, he chose to suddenly wrap Bai Zhi’er in his arms.
Turning her body away so that the little one faced him.
Bai Zhi’er wanted to turn her head: "What happened? I just couldn’t see clearly!"
Feng Fuce covered her head with his hand, his tone indifferent: "Just don’t want you to look, don’t turn back yet."
The long knife in Master Wei’s hand went straight through Wei Zian’s body. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ n̷o̷v̷e̷l̷f̷i̷r̷e̷.net
Having killed so many, often with just a glance, Feng Fuce knew if a person could still survive.
Wei Zian was beyond saving.
