Chapter 104

Li Yao snorted coldly and said, "I think you can't escape!"

He waved his hand and said, "Catch them for me, and I will reward you handsomely!"

Upon hearing this, the thugs stepped forward with their weapons raised.

"etc!"

Fengli played with the fireworks tube in her hand, and said nonchalantly, "Li Agou ignored the imperial court's ban, lent money for profit and bullied the people at will. He is the mastermind and you are accomplices. I advise you to lay down your weapons and surrender, and you still have a chance to get a lighter sentence."

"Huh, what a joke! You accuse me of lending money for profit, do you have any evidence..." Li Yao suddenly remembered that she had just come out of his study. Could it be that she took his account book?

"Who are you?"

Fengli thought about it and said seriously, "I think he is the messenger sent by the Lord of Heaven to save the people from danger!"

"You...are you from the government?"

Li Yao looked a little flustered, but thinking of his uncle's identity, he raised his head and chest and said, "Let me tell you, my uncle is from the Huo family. The Huo family is close to the emperor. If you offend the Huo family, you won't have enough heads to chop off!"

Fengli took off the veil on her face, chuckled, and said, "Li Agou, Manager Li is just a manager of a manor, not even a master. How can you have the guts to get involved with the Huo family?"

"Besides, you two uncle and nephew have been lending money in the name of the Huo family without telling the master of the mansion. Do you think the master of the Huo family will let you off easily if he finds out?"

Li Yao looked at her with some horror. Could it be that they were sent by the master of the Huo Mansion? The more he thought about it, the more scared he became. He quickly shouted to the people below, "Brothers, come on, regardless of life or death!"

Having said that, he turned and ran.

This made everyone look confused.

Fengli lit the firework tube in her hand and threw it in front of him. Li Yao was afraid that it was gunpowder again, so he had no choice but to run over again.

With a "bang", another flower of fire bloomed in the sky.

At this time, a servant ran over in a panic and said to Li Yao, "Master, this is bad. Someone broke in from outside. We need to protect them!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the guards of the Huo family rushed in quickly with torches in hand, and soon stopped all the people under Li Kiln.

Li Yao was originally frightened by the fireworks thrown by Fengli, and now when he saw the guards of the Huo family, his legs went weak and he fell to the ground.

The leading guard bowed to Fengli and said, "Miss Fengli, are you all right?"

Fengli shook her head, walked up to Li Yao, looked at him with a smile and said, "Li Agou, who did you say couldn't escape just now?"

Li Yao knew that the situation was hopeless, so he quickly knelt down and begged for mercy, saying, "Miss, please spare my life. My uncle asked me to lend money for profit. It is none of my business."

Pineapple looked at him with contempt, and thinking of the girls who had been bullied by him, she raised her legs and kicked him a few times, causing him to roll on the ground and scream in pain.

"Don't worry, neither you nor your nephew can escape." Then he had him tied up.

She looked at the guards and said, "Search this house inside and out. There are many innocent girls in this house. Arrange for them to go home."

Everyone obeyed the order.

It didn't take long before the guards came out carrying boxes of jewels and silver.

Many girls who were captured to pay off debts were brought out with tears in their eyes.

Li Shuang, Li Lian and others also came out and saw Feng Li, saying, "Young Master!"

Young master?

The guards were all stunned.

Fengli coughed a few times and said, "Miss Li, you are free now. I will have someone take you back."

"Master, can we really go back now?" Li Lian choked up.

The others also looked embarrassed and expectant when they heard this.

Fengli nodded affirmatively, "Don't worry, Li Yao has been persecuting you and your family members over the years. The master of the Huo Mansion already knows about it. Now they are the ones who asked me to come and rescue you. You can go home without worry."

“Woo woo…”

"That's just wonderful."

"There is always hope for this day."

"yes!"

Li Lian wiped her tears, and led the other sisters to kneel down in front of Fengli, saying: "Sir, we will remember your great kindness in our hearts."

Fengli hurriedly helped her up and said anxiously, "Girl, you are making me suffer. Get up quickly."

After Li Lian stood up, she said to the other girls, "Sisters, we can go home!"

"Yes, let's go home!"

Fengli was worried about them, so she asked a few guards to send them back.

Before leaving, Li Shuang looked at her with some reluctance in his eyes. After this departure, I’m afraid they will never see each other again.

Manager Li at Lian Manor was sleeping soundly when he heard the door being slammed.

He quickly stood up and opened the door, "Who is it?" Seeing that it was someone downstairs, he frowned and asked, "Why are you here?"

The man said anxiously: "Manager, Master Li has been arrested."

"What?" Manager Li was startled and asked, "Who is it?"

"It's the guards of the mansion." the man replied.

Manager Li staggered a few steps upon hearing this, his face full of disbelief, "This is impossible!" The guards on the farm clearly did not make any move.

What he didn't know was that Huo Jin was afraid that something might happen to Luo Chaoyan, so when he replied, he sent a team of guards to quietly guard near the manor and be at her disposal.

The man said, "Manager, what should we do now?"

"Let's go!" Manager Li said hurriedly. It seems that the truth has been revealed and he has to escape quickly.

As he said this, he walked back to the room, searched for some valuables, picked them up and prepared to escape.

Just as he walked out of the yard, he saw Luo Chaoyan walking in with a team of guards.

"Manager Li, what are you going to do with this package so late at night?"

Manager Li was so frightened that he dropped the package in his hand without even noticing it.

"Madam, I...something urgent happened at home, so I wanted to go back and take a look."

Luo Chaoyan nodded and said with a smile: "Something really happened in your family, and it was a big one."

She didn't waste any words and waved her hand, "Catch him!"

"Young Madam, what are you doing..." Manager Li kept struggling and shouting while being detained by the guards.

Luo Chaoyan looked at him coldly and said, "Why, you still want to act in front of me?"

"When you are so audacious as to lend money for profit, the Huo family will not forgive you. Not to mention how many people you two have left homeless over the years."

Seeing that he was still trying to argue, she said softly, "I already have the evidence to prove it. You can't escape the blame even if you die."

"Lock him up and send him to the authorities tomorrow!"

The guards took the order and said, "Yes!"

The next morning

Luo Chaoyan then asked people to gather all the nearby farmers in an open space outside the gate of the manor.

When the nearby farmers arrived, they saw some guards standing outside the manor's house. They were frightened and wondered what these rich and powerful people were going to do.

Luo Chaoyan came out with pineapple.

Looking at these timid and poor farmers in front of her, Luo Chaoyan was filled with mixed emotions.
