Chapter 926_1

"Execution, isn't that sentence too severe? Baozi's parents and grandparents were all executed. Once Huzi's father wakes up, he won't be at peace." Despite being part of the same village, and despite the animosity he felt towards them, the village chief finally found he could not stomach their deaths. He appealed for them, casting a hopeful glance at Huzi's mother, hoping she would plead for them as well.

Huzi's mother avoided the village chief's gaze. Last time, they almost pushed Huzi into the river, and this time they tried to kill his father. What exactly were they planning? She understood their intentions clearly. Before, she could only endure without evidence. But now, with Prince Rui having declared his stance, she would not be foolhardy to plea for mercy. She wouldn't bring trouble upon herself in the future.

She could never forget the ruthless glare in Baozi's mother's eyes when she raised the spade to strike her husband.
