Flower Fairy's Tribulation

On July 7, major newspapers and periodicals published major news: Wan Gufang and his son were demoted to common people. A series of major criminal cases involving Marquis Wangufang were concluded. It was found that he was the instigator of the deaths of former Lusheng City Mayor Geng Ruqiu and deputy mayor Zakun. He was indirectly related to the rebellion of disarmament officers in Songling and was related to the garrison of Songling Fortress. He was the mastermind behind the robbery and murder of Deputy Commander Li Chou, the murder of the son of Tong Jinming, the president of the Green Shengcheng branch of the Holy Spirit Society, and the mastermind behind his son Wan Qianliu's embezzlement of operating funds for the Greenshengcheng Orphanage. It is true that his son Wan Dongliu was directly related to the financial scandal of the Wangfa Farmers Market project, had a leading role in slandering Wu Sheng Wang Suhua, and was indirectly related to the death of the fifth prince Su Hui, etc. It is true that a series of the biggest crimes were committed.

According to the criminal law of Baqiu State, Wan Gufang and his son should be sentenced to death by hanging to punish their crimes. His Majesty Emperor Su Gui, remembering that Wan Gufang and his son had made great contributions during the war, specifically allowed them to offset their merits and demerits, pardoned their capital crimes, but deprived them of their titles, confiscated their property, and demoted them. I am a commoner and will never be hired...

To this effect, Jiang Youyou and others burst into tears when they saw Wan Gufang and his son being dismissed from office.

Gu Li asked doubtfully: "Why didn't Su Gui just cut them into pieces to save trouble after committing so many crimes?"

Hua Yueying said: "Wan Gufang and his son have been completely punished. They have lost their military power and official position. They can no longer pose a threat to the Su family. Su Gui's decision not to kill him is to gain public opinion. It shows that he is magnanimous and treats meritorious officials preferentially. This is You’re buying people’s hearts!”

"Wan Gufang has offended many people over the years, but many of us, the old and young of Wu Sheng Kingdom, are waiting for his misfortune. He has been demoted to a commoner, and those who want to settle accounts with him have probably already begun. He's in line, so this is a sentence worse than life, maybe he will die easier if he is killed by Su Gui!"

On July 7, there was a sea of ​​people near Marquis Wangufang's Mansion, all coming to watch the house raid. The crowd was so crowded that thousands of guardsmen could hardly maintain order.

Jiang Youyou and the others naturally went to watch the excitement.

Dozens of large carriages transporting confiscated property and property from the Marquis Wangufang's mansion came in and out all morning, one after another, and there was no telling how many times they were transported.

At noon, 60 of Wan Gufang's domestic slave men were put in shackles, sent to the border areas and transported away under military escort.

Nearly a hundred maids, servants, concubines, and concubines were sold in the square in front of the house at clearly marked prices based on age, appearance, and other physical conditions, and the proceeds went to the treasury.

The older women were sold at low prices, and the young and beautiful concubines were robbed. Many of them were bought by major brothels to use their remaining value.

Jiang Youyou, Hua Yueying and other girls didn't like the bad habit of buying and selling women like buying and selling animals, and they didn't want to look any further. When she was about to leave, Gu Li saw among the women that there was Wan Gufang's 16-year-old daughter Wan Jinnuo. Surprised.

Many women with other surnames from the Wan family were bought away, leaving only a group of unwanted old women and Wan Jinnuo standing in the square at the entrance in despair with price tags hanging around their necks and their heads lowered.

Maybe it's because Wan Jinnuo is Wan Gufang's biological daughter, unlike other concubines who have foreign surnames and can be bought and sold at will. The common people still have concerns, so no one dares to want her.

Until the sale was about to end at noon, all the old ladies were bought at a huge discount, but no one dared to ask for Wanjinnuo. Wanjinnuo became a laughing stock, standing in the square in front of his house as numb as a wooden block.
