Chapter 71: Will the Truth Be Discovered?

On the day of the execution, Lu Datou took four prison guards to lurk at the execution ground to watch the execution, ensuring that things proceeded smoothly. Other prison guards were on duty as usual, waiting for news in the Heavenly Prison.

Everyone was nervous, and until the head fell, everyone's heart was uneasy.

In the Yi-sized prison and the Jia-sized prison, everyone was as quiet as a chicken. Everyone could guess the private dealings of the Bing-sized prison, but no one spoke out. Even for a word of chat, there was none.

This is a tacit understanding!

No one needs to teach, no one needs to warn, everyone is very conscious of keeping their mouths shut, pretending that nothing happened, that there was no such thing as a prisoner escaping from prison. Even less is there such a shocking thing as replacing the peach with the plum and deceiving the heavens to cross the sea.

Because everyone knows that once the matter is exposed, the Heavenly Prison will be blood-washed, and no one can save their head alone. Thinking of reporting to save their lives, hehe, naive.

But the Heavenly Prison lacks naivety the most, and does not lack bright eyes.

The Heavenly Prison has locked up many people who reported to save their lives, and basically nine out of ten died!

This is a bloody lesson!

The experience summarized by the predecessors with their lives must be kept in mind.

It's just that everyone has no intention of serving, and they are all waiting for the news from the execution ground. They simply gathered in the duty room to play cards and slack off.

Even Chen Guanlou, who never gambled, threw five cents of silver on the table to buy a horse, which was truly the first time in history.

Li Dahong was like seeing a great wonder and shouted: "Opened my eyes! Tonight, I will treat you to wine at the VIP building!"

"Li Tou is mighty!"

"Li Tou is generous!"

"Count me in!" Chen Guanlou said very generously. "No matter how much the cost, it will be on my account."

"Chen Tou is generous!"

"Chen Tou is heroic!"

Chen Guanlou was truly heroic; if he said he would pay, he would definitely fulfill it, never reneging, and giving as much as needed. Li Dahong was absolutely fake heroic; if he said he would treat, he would definitely not take out silver at that time, and every time he would let the prison guards below chip in.

This kind of thing had happened many times, and the prison guards knew it clearly. Therefore, when the prison guards shouted that Chen Tou was generous, it was absolutely sincere and excited.

Li Dahong, humph, an old coin, praising him only because he was a squad leader.

If he weren't a squad leader, he would have been beaten to death long ago.

Chen Guanlou could stand firm in the Jia-sized prison, and few people looked for his trouble, also because he was generous and kept his word. Everyone was conquered by his personality charm.

After all, he didn't gamble, and he could save money in his hands. When spending money, he could take it out. If anyone was in trouble and borrowed money from him, he could also lend it. Compared to the wealth that Li Dahong and others stayed on their lips, it was much stronger.

Today's execution supervisor was the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice, Sun Daoning, Sun Da Ren.

When Lu Datou saw the other party, his heart suddenly thumped.

Last year's prison robbery case, the 13th prisoner was robbed, and the 13th cell is still empty. The people above ordered that as long as the case is not closed for one day, the cell must be kept empty to prove the innocence of everyone in the Heavenly Prison.

Why is this?

Just because the person in charge of this case is Sun Da Ren, who is famous for being picky.

Sun Da Ren is a famous expert in investigating cases.

Lu Datou whispered to the prison guards beside him: "All of you behave naturally, don't let Sun Da Ren see any clues. Whoever is guilty and nervous, get out now, don't implicate everyone's head."

"Don't worry, Big Brother Datou, we have nothing to be guilty about."

"It's best not to be guilty. It's not the first time to watch an execution; behave normally as usual."

"Yes!"

Today's weather is very hot, and the yamen runners are so hot that they can't stand it, wiping sweat frequently.

Sun Daoning is in full official uniform, as if he can't feel any heat, and looks very cool. Second-Rank martial artist is good, already not afraid of cold and heat.

The execution official looked at the sky and asked Sun Daoning in a low voice: "Sun Da Ren, do you think it's time to execute?"

Sun Daoning put down the teacup in his hand and asked unhurriedly: "Has the identity been verified?"

"Verified, verified, it was verified when we arrived. This is the ticket, please look at it, Sun Da Ren."

The execution official handed over the documents. Today, a total of 18 prisoners are to be beheaded, including those from the Heavenly Prison, the Imperial Prison, the Dali Temple, the County Magistrate's office... and so on. All are checked, fair and public, with no problems at all.

The execution official thought that Sun Daoning, as the execution supervisor, would just go through the motions, as it had always been operated this way in the past. But he didn't expect that Sun Daoning, regardless of the heat, stood up and walked out of the tent, coming to the prisoners to verify their identities one by one.

The execution official was immediately unhappy. He was an official of the Jingzhao Prefecture, and the Ministry of Justice did not interfere with each other. He could completely not give the other party face.

So he also stood up and came to Sun Daoning's side. "What does Sun Da Ren mean? Are you doubting that our work is not done well?"

Without the Emperor's decree, without the Prime Minister's order, what qualification does the Ministry of Justice official have to question the work of the Jingzhao Prefecture? Although, the execution supervisor is responsible for verifying the identity of the prisoner. However, doing so is inappropriate and does not conform to the official rules.

Flower sedan chairs lift each other, you give me face, I give you face. Not giving face to the face, is this to form a grudge?

Sun Daoning covered his mouth and nose slightly; the smell on the prisoner in summer is too strong. He said softly: "Why is Lin Da Ren impatient? I am the execution supervisor, bearing the imperial order, it is right to do the appearance. If I sit still the whole time, someone will scold us for being in a position and not seeking government."

Lin Da Ren said with a straight face: "Then can Sun Da Ren be faster, don't delay the time. The weather is so hot, it's hard for everyone!"

"Don't worry, I will be fast."

Lu Datou saw that Sun Daoning was going to verify the prisoner's identity himself, and his heart was suddenly nervous. Other prison guards were the same as him, and everyone had seen the power of Sun Da Ren's seriousness.

"Big Brother Datou, what to do?"

"Calm down! No matter what he does, we only need to do our own things. As long as we have a clear conscience, he can't frame us."

That's what he said, but the prison guards' hearts were still beating, and sweat began to emerge in their palms. If it weren't for the fact that the prison guards had seen big scenes, mastered the skills of deceiving the superiors and hiding from the subordinates, and had a big heart, an ordinary person would have been guilty to the point of peeing their pants on the spot.

Lu Datou was hoping that the person would be calm, and don't drop the chain at the critical moment. Fortunately, the medicine was fed in advance, so there was no need to worry about the person saying something inappropriate.

One after another... soon, Sun Daoning verified the 'little thief Kongkong'.

"Raise your head."

The 'little thief Kongkong' was obviously slow to react. Sun Da Ren said the second sentence before he knew to raise his head. The person was very dirty and smelly, his eyes were trance-like, facing death, and the whole person had collapsed.

Sun Daoning stared at the face in front of him, and between his movements, he glanced at Lu Datou and the others in the crowd.

Instantly, Lu Datou's whole heart was lifted: Did he discover it? Did he discover it? Will he discover it? ===== CHAPTER 72 =====
