章 131: Forget Enmity

People thought that Zhao Wenshuan would be executed after fall. However, two days later, Zhao Wenshuan was taken to the execution ground and was beheaded.

Zhao Wenshuan was a convicted murderer, and he was going to be executed sooner or later. There were only a widowed mother and a younger sister left in his family. They couldn't be of any help to reduce his sentence.

Zhao Liu'er paid several visits to the Second Mistress but failed to see her. However, her visits had roused the Second Mistress's anger and she wanted to get rid of Zhao Liu'er.

Now that her brother had been beheaded, Zhao Liu'er no longer went to the Ji Manor to look for the Second Mistress. She accompanied her mother, who cried incessantly at home.

Chang Huan told Su Jiu that Zhu Hecheng likely had bribed Magistrate Lin to shift Zhao Wenshuan's execution to an earlier date. Zhao Wenshuan's head was taken by Zhu Hecheng and used as a sacrificial offering for Zhu Zhi's funeral.
