Chapter 252 Chenzhou Regime
Xie Yanzhi stayed in the county government for a full half month and finally tried all the cases. Almost every case involved human lives, and most of them were related to the Huang family. Their crimes could only be described as innumerable. The people were outraged and all shouted that they should be cut into pieces.

Afterwards, Qingying led his troops to seize a large amount of gold and silver from the Huang family and those officials' homes, amounting to as much as one million. Xie Yanzhi was furious and directly sentenced Huang Tongpan and all the direct descendants of the Huang family to be beheaded. The rest of the people involved in the case were almost all executed immediately, and none of them escaped. All the confiscated properties were confiscated.

At this point, the Huang family, which had been entrenched in Chenzhou for twenty years, was completely uprooted. Many officials, whether in the government office or in the county offices, were affected, including Magistrate Yang of Datong County.

"Okay, I'm busy too. How can I have the time to be so clingy with you all day long?"

In the space, Shen Xiangwan lay on Wei Chengyi's legs and said with disgust that too many things were involved because of the Huang family this time, and the people implicated were countless. There were a large number of vacancies in the government office and local government offices. In order to support their own people to take office, Wei Chengyi still needed to continue to stay in the government city and could not come back for the time being. Look, he was playing tricks on Shen Xiangwan.

"Late night."

Looking down at her, Wei Chengyi looked aggrieved. Why couldn't they just stick together all day long?
"···"

You bastard, are you really acting like a wronged young wife?

People who don't know might think she did something to him.

Shen Xiangwan was speechless for a moment. After a long while, she climbed up and held his face and kissed him hard: "You always do the same thing, aren't you tired of it?"

"As long as it works."

Wei Chengyi smiled with satisfaction and wrapped his arms around her waist tightly.

"Be careful it doesn't work next time."

Glancing at him unhappily, Shen Xiangwan calmed down and said, "This is a rare opportunity. The remaining officials in the government office should be scared out of their wits. This is a great opportunity for us to take control of the political power. If we do well, we can at least control two-thirds of the political power in Chenzhou this time. We can slowly nibble away at the remaining one-third when we find an opportunity later."

Before the action, she had not expected the harvest to be so great. She could only say that the Huang family's power was really huge, and they were too lawless. After completely digesting the harvest this time, they would basically be able to walk sideways in Chenzhou in the future.

"Ah."

Nodding, Wei Chengyi leaned forward and locked arms with her, resting his chin on her shoulder intimately: "To prevent any more trouble, the Huang family and all those involved in the case will be executed in the downtown area of ​​the prefecture in three days."

"So fast?"

Raising her eyebrows, Shen Xiangwan couldn't help but be a little surprised. Logically speaking, Huang Tongpan and those officials were appointed by the court. Even if they were guilty of numerous crimes, their execution should be reported to the court and then executed after obtaining permission. However, their positions as prefects were obtained with a fake appointment letter. Reporting to the court would only cause trouble and there was no need for that. But she didn't expect them to act so quickly.

"Well, our action this time was very swift. It can be said that we caught the Huang family and those officials off guard. Now it seems that they have all been brought down. No one knows if there will be any fish that slip through the net. Keeping them around will always be a disaster."

"That's right. We just need to deal with them first and then slowly eliminate the remnants that are hiding deeper."

Hearing this, Shen Xiangwan nodded in agreement. Their move this time was so big, if they let those people escape in the end, who would believe them in the future? It would undoubtedly be harder than ascending to heaven for them to win the hearts of the people in Chenzhou.

"Do you want to go to the capital to watch them being executed?"

Leaning back in the chair, Wei Chengyi reached out and tucked the hair that had fallen to her cheek behind her ear. If she wanted to see, he could take her out tomorrow.

"What's there to see? I'm not going."

Shen Xiangwan refused without even thinking about it. Strictly speaking, she didn't have any life-and-death feud with the Huang family and those officials. They just had different positions. Besides, it was their bad luck. It was they who had really violated the law.

"Alright, I can't go home for the time being. There's no news from Master yet. We don't know the attitude of Yinyue Tower yet. Don't run around if you have nothing to do."

Knowing that she would refuse, Wei Chengyi did not force her, but could not help but give her some further instructions.

"I see. It's getting late. Let's get some rest."

Rolling her eyes in annoyance, Shen Xiangwan looked at the clock hanging in the hall. The hour hand had already pointed to twelve o'clock. She didn't care, because she would sleep in every day anyway. Wei Chengyi was different. He had been busy recently. "Okay."

Pulling her legs around his waist, Wei Chengyi held her and stood up. In the blink of an eye, the two of them disappeared in the hall.

The next day, Shen Xiangwan slept until noon as usual, and no one in the family found it strange. Zhao Yuping, Yun Mengyi and the women of the Yan family gathered in the main room to do needlework as usual. Recently, Wei Linger no longer concentrated on practicing martial arts, and every day she brought Wu Shuiyu to follow Shen Xiangwan or Mu Yunran to learn how to manage the workshop or household affairs.

"Ow!"

Seeing her coming down the stairs, the little wolf cub, who had grown a lot, immediately went to greet her.

"Little thing, why didn't you go to the door to wait for your brother today?"

Bending down and picking it up in his arms, Shen Xiangwan poked its head lovingly. Ever since the little cub went to school, the little wolf would wait at the door to greet him every noon and afternoon. When it grows up a little bit, it will probably go directly to wait outside the school.

"Ow!"

Looking up at her, the little wolf cub licked her hand flatteringly with his tongue.

"What a little wolf."

Knowing that it was greedy again, Shen Xiangwan carried it into the main room, took out a small water bag, and poured the water in it into its special clay basin.

"Ow!"

Smelling the familiar scent, the little wolf cub began to struggle restlessly in her arms.

"Okay, okay, aren't we just going to let you go?"

Shen Xiangwan was so amused by it that he quickly put it down. The little wolf cub immediately came over to the clay basin and started drinking it. The spiritual well water seemed to have a huge attraction to all animals, including the little wolf cub and the two black and white balls in the space.

"Wanwan really treats it like her own son."

In the main room, Yun Mengyi said with amusement when she saw this scene.

"He is my own son."

Zhao Yuping couldn't help but laugh and agree. Others might not know, but didn't they? The potion she gave to the wolf cub to drink was a potion she had carefully prepared, which had the effect of cleansing the marrow and strengthening the bones, and prolonging life.

The women in the Yan family looked at each other and all laughed, but since they were all younger generations, their laughter was rather reserved.

"Well, in my mind, it is really like my own son."

After rubbing its head lovingly, Shen Xiangwan stood up and walked towards them: "Why don't you see Ling'er?"

"She, should she go to the workshop?"

Zhao Yuping was not too sure. Ever since her daughter started learning martial arts, her personality had become more and more erratic. She was completely different from before, and she could no longer control her.

"Really?"

Raising her eyebrows, Shen Xiangwan picked up the teapot and poured herself a cup of cold tea. She was not surprised. Recently, Wei Linger has been actively learning to help them. Maybe she wants to reduce the burden on them? The little girl is becoming more and more sensible.
