Chapter 170 Punishment
"Qingque, you go out too and guard outside. Don't let anyone else in." Song Yu said.
Qingque saluted and left.
The only people left in the room were Song Yu, Zhenniang and her child, and Qingluo.
Song Yu glanced at the child, hesitated for a moment, but still did not ask him to leave.
Song Yu said: "I have heard about what happened last night. What are your plans?"
When Zhenniang heard this, she suddenly looked up at Song Yu with surprise in her eyes.
Song Yu asked, "Do you want justice? Or do you want to keep the peace?"
The corners of Zhenniang's mouth moved, but she didn't say anything. Tears just flowed down her cheeks like beads that had broken off the string.
Seeing this, Song Yu said, "You have walked from the border to here, I think you have gone through a lot of hardships, and you brought a child with you, you are very impressive.
It's not your fault, and I will help you no matter what decision you make."
-
Song Yu walked out of the room, and Qingluo followed her, not knowing what she was planning.
"Girl!" Qingque looked at Song Yu.
Song Yu's face was stern. She said, "Bring that man here."
Qingque took the order and left. A moment later, a man was escorted over.
His hands were tied, his mouth was not gagged, and he was still cursing.
The clothes on his body were patched and a bit messy.
He was brought before Song Yu. When he saw Song Yu, there was no fear in his eyes, nor was there the dullness of a few days ago. There was even some unspeakable filth in his eyes.
Some people really can't be allowed to eat too much.
Song Yu stood on the stairs and looked the man up and down.
Their eyes met, and the man said cheerfully, "Miss Song, this is all a misunderstanding. Ask them to let me go first, and then we can talk it out."
Song Yu asked, "Okay, then tell me why you did something inappropriate to Zhenniang last night?"
"Miss Song, how could that be? This is a misunderstanding. They are orphans and widows, with no one to rely on. It was Zhenniang who first approached me, saying she wanted to have sex with me and wanted me to be their future support. But who knew she would regret it at the last minute and even turn the tables on me.
It's true, a widow's door is always full of trouble. I shouldn't have been soft-hearted and got myself into this mess." The man complained bitterly, as if he was the one who had suffered a great injustice.
"Did she fall in love with you? Didn't you force her to molest her?" Song Yu asked.
The man's face was excited. "That's right, Miss Song. This is all a misunderstanding. You women are thin-skinned. She can't accept it for the time being. I'll talk to her again. We are all family from now on. As the saying goes, it's better to demolish ten temples than to destroy a relationship."
The expression on Song Yu's face faded, and she said, "Really? Zhenniang, do you admit what he said?"
"He's talking nonsense. He just wants to do something indecent to me. He's shameless." Zhenniang came out of the house with red eyes.
The man's expression changed immediately when he saw her. If the people around him hadn't held him back, he seemed like he would have rushed forward.
"Bitch, if you dare to say anything nonsense again, I'll beat you to death." The man was furious.
Zhenniang shrank back, staggered, and bumped into her daughter behind her.
She turned around and looked at her daughter's frightened expression, and she suddenly remembered what Song Yu had said to her.
With her feet firmly planted, she stepped forward, pointed at the man and said, "You shameless lunatic, it was you who wanted to do something indecent to me, and now you're trying to confuse right and wrong."
After saying that, Zhenniang knelt down beside Song Yu and kowtowed firmly: "I hope Miss Song will make the decision for me."
"Bitch, what nonsense are you talking about, you stinky whore, I'm going to kill you. It's obviously you who are shameless and can't stand the loneliness, so you seduced me, you little whore, bitch." The man struggled anxiously with a red face.
"You said she seduced you, do you have any evidence?" Song Yu asked as he glanced at the people gathering around him.
The man struggled and said, "What evidence? I don't need any evidence. She's a jinx who brings bad luck to her husband. It's her blessing that I'm attracted to her. Just wait for me, I'll kill you."
Song Yu's face turned cold, and he said calmly: "Since there is no evidence, you can only say this nonsense. Qingxi, cut off his tongue."
The air seemed to freeze for a moment, as if no one had expected that these words would come out of Song Yu's mouth.
"Yes." Qingxi took out a dagger from somewhere and was about to walk towards the man.
The man also came to his senses and saw Qingxi's serious look. He suddenly panicked and directed the harsh words he had said to Zhenniang at Song Yu.
"You bitch, who do you think you are? A girl doesn't stay at home to take care of her husband and children, but runs out to embarrass herself. Aren't you afraid of bringing shame to your ancestors? How dare you touch me? What gives you the right? I won't let you go." At this point, the man was still cursing and refused to beg for mercy.
Song Yu looked up to him, but it was possible that he thought Song Yu didn't dare to do anything to him.
Song Yu's eyes were full of disgust, and he signaled Qingxi to act quickly.
Qingxi's expression remained calm. He raised his knife and slashed it. The man's tongue fell to the ground, and blood was dripping from his mouth.
He bent over in pain, but couldn't squat because someone was holding him down.
Song Yu spoke again: "Break his legs, destroy his roots, and throw him out of the city."
When she said these words, her face was as cold as ice, without a trace of warmth.
The people watching the excitement around were silent.
They all came to escape disaster. Before this, Song Yu had given them porridge and medicine and spoke to them in a gentle manner.
She is even kinder to children, and I have never seen her so harsh.
For a moment, everyone was shocked by her cruel method.
Song Yu looked around and said loudly: "My name is Song Yu, a disciple of Qingyang Sect. I believe you have heard of Qingyang Sect.
Although the Qingyang Sect is not as confused about right and wrong as rumored and does not kill innocent people indiscriminately, we also help people in need, but kindness has principles.
I only save people, not animals. You all are fleeing here, and have common experiences. You should help each other and support each other so that you can return home one day.
But if someone has bad intentions and wants to bully the small or the weak, don't blame me for being rude if I find out."
After she finished speaking, the people around her fell silent, not daring to speak. They felt that today was the day they truly got to know Miss Song.
"Qingxi!" Song Yu shouted.
"Here." Qingxi stood with his hands hanging down.
Song Yu said: "Register the birthplaces of these people and send them to the City Lord's Mansion."
"Yes." Qingxi said.
Song Yu turned around and said to those people, "You register your household registration, and the City Lord of Tianshu City will give you a temporary household registration. After receiving the new household registration, you can look for work. If you want to leave, you can go to the City Lord's Mansion to get a pass."
After hearing this, everyone had different expressions, but most of them were happy.
Song Yu left the rest of the matters to Qingxi and Qingque.
She took Zhenniang back to the room and said to her, "You did a great job."
Zhenniang was in tears and looked at Song Yu with gratitude.
Song Yu said: "Don't cry, I will suggest to the city lord that we send yamen runners to patrol until the house is completely repaired to prevent this from happening again.
If you are willing, I can find you a job that will support you and your daughter. It should be no problem."
"Miss, your kindness will be so great that I will never forget it." As she said this, she began to kneel down again.
Song Yu quickly helped her up, looked at the wound on her neck and said, "Instead of asking for help, it's better to save yourself. Life is difficult, and it's even harder for women. If you can learn a few tricks, it will be good to protect yourself."
