Chapter 143: Not living up to destiny

Author: Seven-leaf Hibiscus

Since ancient times, it has been difficult to evaluate merits and demerits.

During the reign of Song Yin, the prefect of the Song Dynasty, he served as an official in the court for nearly twenty years.

From being very high-spirited to now it's getting old.

Half of his life was spent on how to be a good official.

He is always running for his original ideal.

It's just that God played a big joke on him.

In such an almost absurd way, he made a huge mistake, which almost cost him half of his life's efforts and achievements.

Qing Hui didn't know how to evaluate the Song magistrate. He could only say that he was really unlucky. He was so unlucky that he was targeted by an insidious villain who had no moral ethics.

The reason why the Four Spirit Continent is so distinct from the other twelve continents in the entire Cangyuan Yunji is because there are mostly mortals in the Four Spirit Continent. To deal with mortals with power beyond mortals is to be disrespectful of morality and martial ethics.

She couldn't do such a thing anyway.

She wanted Qi Mingyue and Lian Jinchen to die so much that she didn't take advantage of her current ability to kill them with one blow.

The prefect of Song Dynasty was implicated.

But the mistake has been made and cannot be undone.

The city of Lingzhou Prefecture is full of tragedies, corpses are everywhere, and the skinny innocent people standing here now, what crime are they guilty of?

Qing Huai faced the people who were silent at first and then began to talk about it without making any noise.

She glanced at Song Tanxi. Song Tanxi's attention was still on Song Yunting. She didn't know whether she had accepted her fate or something. She didn't try to plead for mercy, or even communicated with Magistrate Song.

I don’t know how long it took, maybe half an hour, maybe a quarter of an hour, it wasn’t too long.

First a few, then dozens or hundreds, and then more people knelt down one after another.

Finally, they begged in unison: "Please spare the life of Magistrate Song!"

Qing Hui looked at them unexpectedly.

The people started talking in a flurry of voices, their voices a little broken.

"Prefect Song has done so many things for us over the years. Since it was not his intention, it is not a crime worthy of death!"

"Prefect Song is a good man!"

"The prefect of Song Dynasty was harmed by traitors. We cannot judge based on the drought alone. Even in the past few years, he has spent all his wealth and constantly tried to save us. Although he made a big mistake, he did not

You don’t deserve to die!”

"It's better to spare his life. He has not been corrupt. Natural disasters are unstoppable and he has tried his best..."

So they begged again with certainty: "Please spare the life of Magistrate Song!"

Song Yinian, who was kneeling on the execution platform, finally couldn't help but burst into tears when he looked at the people kneeling under the platform to plead for him.

He was almost lying on the ground, his thin body trembling constantly.

Those being tried on the execution platform today were mainly officials from Lingzhou City. The families of those officials were also brought here, but they were all kneeling behind the execution platform.

A weak old lady grabbed the daughter-in-law's hand next to her and cried, "Daughter-in-law, this old lady can die in peace now!"

Mother Song grabbed the old lady's hand and her eyes were red.

She didn't misjudge the person, she just didn't live up to her destiny.

This life is worth it.

"Since you all plead for Magistrate Song and are willing to spare his life, today, in the name of Your Majesty, I will pardon Magistrate Song's death penalty!" Qing Hui said loudly.

Then he stepped forward and broke the shackles that locked Magistrate Song.
