The strongest devouring system in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 373 A coincidence

"By chance, I met Lord Zhang Xingchen." The girl's words were calm and collected, but to everyone present, they were like a stone thrown into the ocean.

This surprised everyone. No wonder Chen Er handled the matter so flawlessly in such a short time. It turned out that Zhang Xiu'e knew Zhang Xingchen from the beginning. So why was Zhang Xiu'e here? Obviously, this was all planned by the group beforehand.

Chen Er was very satisfied. Sun Yunhe and Zhao Beixing's expressions were: "Originally, this matter should have been handled by the Embroidered Uniform Guard, but yesterday when I was drinking with Brother Zhang Xingchen, I suddenly heard about it and I became a little interested."

"So I planned to use Zhang Xiue's case to practice my skills and experience what it's like to be a good official. But today someone actually came to complain, and then this happened."

Actually, Chen Er was a little surprised. Yesterday, he and Zhang Xingchen were drinking at a tavern when he overheard Zhang Xiu'e's case, which inadvertently enraged him. He then took over Zhang Xiu'e's case from Zhang Xingchen.

Moreover, Zhang Xingchen also wanted to see if Chen Er actually had such methods, since Chen Er was about to join the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

Moreover, his position in the Embroidered Uniform Guard was not low, which could be considered as giving Chen Er a chance to show his talent. However, after Chen Er returned, the old man came to his door to plead his case.

Next, Chen Er connected the two things together and found that both incidents were the work of the same person, the damned Wang Dawei.

“Chen Er, you are indeed excellent. I have to admire you. But if you don’t convict Gouzi, then Wang Dawei is also not deserving of death.”

“After all, Wang Dawei is the eldest son of the Wang family, so you should treat him leniently,” Sun Yunhe said again.

Sun Yunhe wanted to fight for Wang Dawei's chance to live, but Chen Er smiled and looked at Sun Yunhe with disdain. Indeed, Sun Yunhe was also a little surprised.

Having been imprisoned for over a decade, and ever since becoming a favorite of Wei Zhongxian, no one had ever looked at him with contempt.

What's more, what's contemptuous of him is that he believes Chen Er is actually only a first-rank official. Sun Yunhe felt a surge of anger inside him; he wished he could punch Chen Er to death.

“Even if the emperor breaks the law, he is subject to the same punishment as the common people. Therefore, Wang Dawei is doomed to die. Ma Dazhi, prepare the guillotine for me. That would be worthy of Wang Dawei’s high and mighty status.”

Chen Er's words were like a wake-up call for everyone.

Wang Dawei was dumbfounded; he felt as if his body was a plate of mud.

He slumped to the ground, staring blankly as Ma Dazhi and the others went to prepare. Even Sun Yunhe was surprised, not expecting Chen Er to be about to behead Wang Dawei.

"Chen Er, what you're doing is a bit illogical. No matter what, you should detain Ma Dazhi first and then question us a few months later. Besides, I still need to report to you."

“Tell us everything that happened today, otherwise it’s not in accordance with the rules,” Sun Yunhe said, frowning.

Chen Er immediately stood up and gave a very serious warning. Chen Er wasn't stupid; he knew why he had let Wang Dawei lose his head.

That's because by the time of execution, who knows what tricks might happen? Chen Er had already promised Wang Xuelian that he would avenge this woman's husband.

Therefore, Chen Er would not allow Sun Yunhe to interfere here: "As I have said, you are merely bystanders and have no right to obstruct my judgment."

So you all just sit there quietly and watch the show. If you anger me, none of you will escape; I still have the guillotine here.”

Chen Er's words were incredibly ruthless, leaving Sun Yunhe speechless. The dog-head guillotine was prepared for Wang Dawei, but wasn't the tiger-head guillotine prepared for himself?

Even Sun Yunhe couldn't help but shrink back. When Zhao Tianming saw Ma Dazhi, these men lifted up the heavy guillotine.

Zhao Tianming finally snapped out of his shock and glared at Chen Er with resentment: "You damned trash, you're just a weak first-rank official, what right do you have to execute Wang Dawei now?"

“Wang Dawei is the high and mighty Young Master Wang, you will definitely face retaliation from the Wang family.” Zhao Tianming began to defend Wang Dawei.

"Wang Dawei deserves to die, and he still dares to spout nonsense even when he's about to die. As for Zhao Tianming, I advise you not to say anything more here, or you will also die a terrible death." Chen Er shouted angrily.

Chen Er, with red eyes and a smirk, looked at Wang Dawei lying on the ground like a dead dog. This guy was so arrogant at the beginning, but now he was really scared in front of Chen Er.

"Wang Dawei, your crime has been established. You deliberately beat someone's husband to death, so I hereby announce that you will be sentenced to the guillotine. If there is an afterlife, I hope you can be a good person."

After Chen Er finished speaking, he looked down at Ma Dazhi, who was standing beside him waiting for orders.

"Let Wang Dawei die suddenly, and that will be the end of this matter. I don't want to pursue this further with anyone."

Just as Ma Dazhi was about to make a move, Zhao Tianming actually stepped in to stop him: "Chen Er, I think you're really tired of living. Why don't you go out and inquire about Wang Dawei? Is Wang Dawei someone you can mess with? It seems like you're in danger yourself."

After Zhao Tianming finished speaking, he acted as if nothing had happened and winked at Chen Er. Chen Er understood that this was Zhao Tianming's way of provoking him, and Chen Er gave a helpless bitter smile.

“Zhao Tianming, I didn’t want to pursue this matter because of Zhao Beixing, but since you remain stubborn, I will punish you.”

Chen Er knew very well that Zhao Tianming and Wang Dawei were practically inseparable, and now that Wang Dawei had fallen from grace.

Then the rest of the matter will be Zhao Tianming's responsibility. At this moment, Zhao Tianming did not listen to what Chen Er said, and immediately burst into laughter, and even clapped his hands and cheered.

“Chen Er, I have been an official for many years, and no one has ever dared to speak to me like this. You are the first. So I am waiting for you to investigate me. I hope you can successfully step into my home.” Zhao Tianming’s words made Chen Er’s brows furrow.
