Ning Caijun saw that the groom was shivering with his head down and didn't dare to look up at her, so she knew that he must be hiding something from her.

He immediately used both hands to force the other person's head straight, and for a moment their eyes met, as if struck by lightning.

"It's you! Zhao Liu!"

Ning Caijun took a step back, narrowed his eyes, frowned, and looked at the other party with murderous intent in his eyes, with a gloomy face.

"Three years ago, you and the guards at Huichun Hall raped and murdered Wei Jiaoniang, and humiliated me in every way. Did you ever imagine this day would come? Debts must be paid, murders must be paid with life. Humph! Come, arrest me!"

Ning Caijun waved her hand, and two or three of her followers drew their swords and placed them on the groom's neck. The cold blades sent chills through Zhao Liu's body, and he was paralyzed with fear. Suddenly, the smell of urine filled the air. It turned out to be a yellow liquid soaking into the man's pants. It made him frown and feel sick.

"Ning Zhuangyuan, no, Lord Ning... Wei Jiaoniang's death has nothing to do with me. After we finished our business that day, she was still fine... It really has nothing to do with me..."

"Also, three years ago, when you visited Huichuntang, it was Liu Baolong and the Ning family who made me do this to you. They said they wanted to tarnish your reputation and highlight the good name of Huichuntang, so that they could spread their fame and bring in more money... This is none of my business! I was forced to do this. Yes, it was Liu Baolong and the Ning family who forced me to do this..."

Zhao Liu knelt on the ground and kowtowed, his forehead was bruised and covered in blood. He kept explaining and recounting what happened that night, and then put all the blame on Liu Ning and the other man. When he got excited, he lay on the ground and hugged Ning Caijun's feet, hoping that the other party would show mercy and not kill him.

Ning Caijun sneered, "Everyone, bear witness. This guy confessed his crime without being asked! This will save us the trouble of interrogation."

Then, he kicked Zhao Liu away and saw several guards from Huichuntang kneeling on the ground, not daring to breathe. He waved his hand and said, "All those belonging to Huichuntang will be arrested and taken to trial!"

Soon, some subordinates asked what would happen to the families and relatives of these prisoners.

Ning Caijun paused, pondering for a moment. Then, a sharp, weasel-like voice reached his ears: "If you don't remove the grass at its roots, it will grow again in the spring breeze. What are you waiting for? Capture them all and execute them all!"

"Are you teaching me how to do things?" Ning Caijun frowned and scolded the voice.

"I have spoken too much. I hope you will calm down." The officer next to him thought that he had spoken too much and angered the other party, so he knelt on the ground and apologized in fear.

Ning Caijun was just about to say, "Kick out all the outsiders."

At this moment, he suddenly paused, as if possessed, his eyes glowed green and moved around cunningly.

It turned out that he was possessed by a weasel spirit and could not control his body. He could only see it shouting at the top of its voice: "Take all family members and friends away!"

Then he looked at the bride beside him, reached out and pulled away the covering, and the other person's face was immediately revealed to everyone.

What a delicate and beautiful lady.

She has fair skin, delicate features, willow-like eyes, dark eyebrows, and a face like a peach. At this moment, she is sobbing with her head down, and her eyes are nervous, which makes her look even more charming and lovable.

"Zhao Liu, are you so lucky?"

The weasel held the bride's tender chin with one hand, and looked her over carefully from side to side, feeling very satisfied.

Then he lowered his head and whispered in Zhao Liu's ear with a wicked smile, "That night three years ago is still vivid in my mind. Three years from now, it should be the same tonight!"

After saying this, he didn't care about Zhao Liu's expression. He waved his sleeves and walked out of the door. He turned around and mounted his horse: "Seal off Huichun Hall and quickly go to the Junzhaofu government office!"

So, everyone escorted the criminals straight to the county government office without stopping.

When he arrived at the place, the weasel demon was warmly received by several yamen officials wearing crane costumes and blue robes. Their tone was full of flattery and respect, for fear of offending the powerful top scholar.

The weasel demon held the Emperor's Sword in his hand and said in a pretentious tone, "The Japanese officials will temporarily take over this place for the next few days. You can take a few days off and go home to rest."

Several supervisors understood what he meant, said goodbye, and left in a hurry.

Soon, a subordinate reported: "Everyone has been detained in the prison, awaiting interrogation by the Lord."

The weasel demon was secretly delighted. He looked up at the sky, said there was no rush, and waved his hand to signal his servants to retreat.

At night.

In the county government office, someone saw it in a deep bedroom.

Zhao Liu was tied tightly to the main beam with thick hemp ropes, and a rag was stuffed into his mouth, making him unable to speak. He could only make "hmmmm..." sounds in his throat that vibrated.

A woman huddled beside the table. She was dressed in red, with fair skin, delicate features, willow-shaped eyes, dark eyebrows, and a face as rosy as a peach. Tears could not stop flowing from the corners of her eyes...

Soon, a young man dressed in the uniform of a top scholar came in stealthily. He closed the door and locked it, then showed an evil smile.

——

That night.

The news that Huichuntang was sealed off and its personnel were escorted to the Junzhaofu government office spread throughout the county.

An insider who was watching the scene explained the truth, and everyone cursed Huichuntang for saying one thing in front of people and another behind their backs, being vicious and cruel, and even treating their own nephew like this. The most hateful thing is that they kept everyone in the dark, and they became accomplices without knowing it.

Some people took advantage of the night to spontaneously run to the door of Huichun Hall, which had been closed down, and threw feces to express their anger.

A young man in blue suggested that Yunlai Restaurant should not be closed, so that the storyteller could reveal the true face of Huichuntang and at the same time redress the injustice done to the victims.

Soon, the Yunlai Restaurant was packed that night. The storyteller excitedly and tremblingly recounted the grievances and grudges of three years ago, cursing Liu Baolong for being a hypocritical beast in human clothing, and saying that Ning was a vicious and cruel person, which aroused cheers from all around.

Talking about the mysterious disappearance of Wei Jiaoniang, a weaver girl from a cloth shop in the city three years ago, the storyteller was even more heartbroken and filled with righteous indignation. He said frankly that he never expected that the truth would be revealed today and that she was actually defiled by several guards of Huichun Hall.
