The scene suddenly became extremely bloody.

"Ouch!" Su Anwei exclaimed in surprise, her eyes wide open, before she could see anything more, Fu Huai covered her eyes.

Unbeknownst to them, Zhou Li hummed softly as he raised his foot and forcefully crushed Zhang Dafeng's severed wrist.

"My master dislikes liars the most!"

Zhang Dafeng's screams grew increasingly shrill.

She immediately stopped thinking about anything and knelt on the ground, tears and snot streaming down her face. "I'll tell you everything!"

Devil! These people are all devils!

Realizing that Fu Huai and Zhou Li were not people who could be easily fooled, and that she could not escape her fate by throwing a tantrum, she explained everything clearly.

This includes how Madam He told her to make Su An's shop go out of business, and how to make Su An be condemned by everyone, preferably by being arrested and beheaded.

From the very beginning, they planned to make Su An suffer.

Su An suppressed her anger and waited for her to finish speaking, until finally she couldn't listen anymore, slapped Fu Huai's hand away, and glared angrily at Zhang Dafeng.

"You bunch of horse killers! Why would you use such a vicious method to scheme against me? Aren't you afraid that all those innocent guests will lose their lives?!"

Zhang Dafeng was covered in cold sweat and stammered, unable to speak.

They couldn't have thought of all that back then; they just thought this method was good enough to ensure Su An had no chance of turning things around.

If someone were to die, that would be even better. It would be a murder case, and Su An would inevitably be condemned by everyone and then beheaded.

People like them have little conscience and won't care about innocent customers.

Su An was furious. She raised her hand, gritted her teeth, and slapped Zhang Dafeng across the face. "I will make you give everyone an explanation!"

After temporarily detaining Zhang Dafeng, the group immediately went out of the backyard and arrested He Wangshi, who had not yet heard a word of what was going on.

"What are you trying to do? Su An, are you trying to pin this on me? Let me tell you, I will never admit it, and I'm going to sue you for defaming an innocent person!"

Like a pig being slaughtered for the New Year, He Wangshi struggled and screamed as soon as Zhou Li picked her up.

Su An stared sharply at her, his tone as cold as ice: "He Wangshi, you know in your heart what you have done. Your sister Zhang Dafeng has already confessed everything. No matter how hard you try to deny it, it will be of no use!"

"impossible!"

He Wangshi was struck dumb, her eyes filled with disbelief.

But Su An and the others had no intention of joking with her. After leaving the shop, they took her directly to the yamen (government office).

Lin Yong had already received the news in advance and had been waiting for a long time.

As soon as He Wangshi was brought up, Zhang Dafeng was also brought up.

Before Lin Yongsheng could even begin his interrogation, Zhang Dafeng, already terrified, confessed her crimes honestly once again, as if reciting a familiar list.

This naturally included the mention of He Wangshi, who had initially approached her. "Yes, she gave me a sum of money, saying that all I had to do was buy herbs to make poison, and then find a way to soak the chopsticks in it."

"The reason I was able to sneak into the kitchen was because He Wangshi covered for me..."

Seeing that Zhang Dafeng was talking more and more, almost to the point of pulling down their underwear, He Wangshi immediately pounced on her and covered Zhang Dafeng's mouth tightly.

"Shut up!"

"You're talking nonsense! There's no such thing at all; it was all your own idea!"

Zhang Dafeng immediately became unhappy. Ignoring her hastily bandaged injuries, she struggled desperately and cursed loudly:

"Mrs. He, I am your own sister! And now you want me to take the blame? I trusted you so much back then, saying that nothing would be found out... but look at me now!"

"I even had one of my hands chopped off, so you won't have it easy either! I still have all the money you gave me back then!"

As if they had some deep-seated hatred, the two began to expose each other's shortcomings and hurl insults in front of the magistrate, revealing all the dirty deeds they had done in the past.

"Tsk tsk." Su An frowned as he looked at the scene, then turned his eyes away with obvious disgust.

She had really underestimated Madam He before; this family was rotten to the core!

Lin Yong, sitting upright, gradually lost his patience and angrily slammed his hand on the table, shouting, "Silence!"

"Mrs. He, now that the witnesses and evidence are all there, do you have anything else to say?"

After being forcibly pulled away by the soldiers, He Wangshi calmed down a little, but then she was horrified to find that she had no room for argument.

Long before she was arrested, Zhang Dafeng had already confessed everything, and there was no way to hide what she had done!

"I……"

She broke out in a cold sweat and wanted to cry out and make a scene, but Lin Yong didn't give her the chance at all. He raised his hand and threw down a torture token, "The sinful woman He Wangshi is vicious and maliciously instigated others to poison innocent people. Her crimes are heinous and she deserves to be beheaded!"

A crisp "click" sounded.

When Madam He looked down and saw the word "execution" on the execution warrant, her vision went black, and she was so frightened that she couldn't even kneel down and collapsed to the ground.

"Your Honor! I'm innocent! I'm innocent!"

With death looming, Madam He disregarded everything else and blurted out another name: "It was Ni Dagui. He was the one who gave me the idea to do this!"

"Your Honor, the one who should be beheaded is him!"

Having had enough of the excitement and was about to leave, Su An stopped in his tracks in anger upon hearing these words.

"Ni Dagui?"

She knows that name very well!

I hadn't seen Ni Dagui make any moves for a long time, and I thought he had given up. I never expected that he had been stirring up trouble behind the scenes all along!

Fu Huai also remembered this person and raised his hand to order Zhou Li to bring the person over.

Surprisingly, Ni Dagui appeared remarkably calm when he was brought over, showing no sign of panic.

"Your Honor, I am innocent," he said as soon as he opened his mouth.

Before He Wangshi could utter a sound, he preemptively continued, "Before I came here, I heard that He Wangshi had pinned the blame for the poisoning on me. But everything requires evidence. What evidence can He Wangshi possibly produce?"

He Wangshi fell silent immediately.

She racked her brains to recall, and then realized that Ni Dagui had never met with her easily before. Even if he had something to say, he would ask someone to pass on the message.

From beginning to end, no evidence was left behind.

Even the money that was promised earlier was returned directly to the casino without passing through their hands at all!

For a moment, Madam He felt a chill run down her spine. She finally realized, belatedly, that her family had been tricked by Ni Dagui!
