Chapter 429 Killing Chen Jiu
Looking at the sharp knife, the people's hearts immediately rose to their throats.
Over the years, as long as Chen Jiu swung his sword, he would not stop until blood was seen.
Shen Wan didn’t move.
She stared at Chen Jiu coldly, without a trace of joy or sadness in her clear eyes.
Just when the big knife was about to fall on him, Chen Jiu's body suddenly stiffened.
He lowered his head in surprise and saw a small drop of blood on his chest.
The bright red blood beads sparkled with beautiful luster under the warm winter sun, looking particularly enchanting and strange.
Before he could figure out what was going on, the thin body collapsed to the ground.
Chen Jiu widened his eyes, his cloudy pupils fixed on the fiery red sun in the sky.
The people were shocked.
They walked forward cautiously, but found that Chen Jiu was already dead.
Shen Wan's silver needle was tempered with a deadly poison, and it would kill instantly upon contact with blood.
If Chen Jiu wasn't so vicious, she would not have been willing to use him.
"Chen Jiu is bullying the market, driving up prices, and engaging in illicit business with foreign nations. He deserves death!" Shen Wan's face was gloomy, and her cold gaze passed over everyone's faces like a dragonfly skimming the water. "Now, in the name of Princess Lanyang, I officially take over all affairs in the city."
"Feng San, arrest all of Chen Jiu's servants and detain them in the quarry."
"Brother Hu, immediately count all the grain in the grain store and distribute it to each household according to the number of people. Make sure no one is left out!"
"Black Hawk, go to Chen Jiu's house and confiscate all his belongings."
Upon hearing this, Chen Jiu's minions panicked.
I'm afraid no one knows better than them what a quarry is.
Going there is equivalent to going to the underworld in advance.
"You... you may be the princess, but you have no right to punish us!" The minions shouted with pale faces, "Don't forget, Master Chu is still here."
Although Chen Jiu is dead, Chu Wei is still here, and I believe he can still protect them.
After hearing this, Shen Wan couldn’t help but smiled coldly: “Okay, I’ll let you meet Master Chu in a while.”
At this time, several brothers under Hu Dahai brought Chu Wei and Feng Sanniang over.
Their hair was disheveled and their clothes were in disarray. It was obvious at first glance that the two had just finished a fierce "battle".
Feng San was shocked when he saw Sanniang.
"You...you guys..." He asked stutteringly, unable to believe his eyes.
Mrs. Feng raised her head stubbornly and looked at him provocatively: "What's wrong with us?"
"Feng San, from the moment you decided to divorce me, we no longer have any relationship."
"Now I am Mr. Chu's woman. Even if you regret it, it's too late."
As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar at the scene.
Feng San, who always felt weak in the knees when he saw his wife, actually divorced her?
Feng San bit his lip but said nothing more.
Shen Wan was a little curious.
She knew that Chu Wei was not a good person, but at such a critical moment, how could he still be in the mood to do such a thing?
Seeing Chu Wei's strange expression, Shen Wan stepped forward.
As soon as she took a look, she was surprised.
That’s right, Chu Wei was drugged.
In fact, Chu Wei was the one who took the initiative at the beginning, but due to psychological reasons, he was unable to continue.
So, Sanniang, who had ulterior motives, fed him all the medicine that Chen Jiusu used every day.
She wants a child.
In fact, she had a child when she was with Feng San, but she didn't pay attention at the time and had a miscarriage.
Chen Jiu is infertile at all. If she can get pregnant with Chu Wei's child, wouldn't she be able to get rid of her status as an exile and become the wife of a county magistrate?
So, poor Chu Wei became a pawn in her plan.
"I see!" Shen Wan said with a mischievous smile, "I forgot to tell you that Chu Wei is related to Chen Jiu's case. I have to detain him temporarily."
"Since you are his woman, let's lock you up together."
When Sanniang heard this, she felt like a bolt from the blue exploded above her head.
how so?
Isn’t Chu Wei the magistrate of Lanyang County? How did he become a suspect?
"Madam County Magistrate, let's go!" Feng Er said coldly with a gloomy face.
He was about to make a move, but saw Sanniang shaking her head desperately: "No, no, no, I'm not his woman!"
“That’s right!”
"Boss Gao from the camp gave me to Chen Jiu, and Chen Jiu forced me to accompany Chu Wei."
"I swear, I was really forced to do this..."
As soon as these words were spoken, the scene was filled with mocking laughter.
"Oh, so you're not the county magistrate's wife!" Hu Dahai almost laughed himself to death, looking at her with squinted eyes. "I thought a noble lady was going to appear in our convict group."
Hearing those sarcastic words, Sanniang's face turned pale.
She felt that she was destined to be a prisoner in this life. First it was Feng San, and now after Pan finally caught Chu Wei, he turned out to be another prisoner!
In desperation, she could only look at Feng San: "Husband, please, for the sake of our past relationship, you must save me!"
"Chu Wei's matter really has nothing to do with me. I was with him for the first time today."
Feng San turned his head away and didn't want to look at her.
Chu Wei, on the other hand, looked Sanniang up and down several times.
As expected, all women are bad.
"Alright, stop looking!" Feng Er sneered and pulled Chu Wei up. "People are eager to draw a line between us. Even if you bulge your eyes, it's useless."
He tied Chu Wei up and pushed him away.
Seeing that no one pleaded for her, Sanniang became anxious.
In desperation, she could only rush to Shen Wan and kneel down: "Young Madam, I beg you to be magnanimous and not bother with people like me."
"I was wrong, really wrong!"
"I know I shouldn't have harmed Li, nor should I have any complaints against you."
"But I can swear to God that Chu Wei's affairs really have nothing to do with me!"
Of course Shen Wan believed this.
Who is Chu Wei?
Even if he wanted to do something, he would never tell anyone else, let alone the top criminals.
"Okay, go back to the camp." Shen Wan frowned and said impatiently, "But you'd better behave yourself. If you dare to make trouble again, I will never let you go."
After hearing this, Sanniang nodded quickly like a chicken pecking at rice.
Although life in the camp is hard, at least I’m still alive!
Shen Wan ignored her and went to count the belongings with Hu Dahai and others.
You don’t know until you click, and everyone was shocked.
No one had ever imagined that the seemingly small Chen family grain store actually stored so much grain!
No wonder Chen Jiu wanted to blow up the mountain. If he sold it at the price he set, the money he earned would probably be enough to buy half of Lanyang City.
With the help of everyone, the food was quickly distributed to every household.
Looking at the white rice, the people were so excited that tears filled their eyes.
After a busy whole day, Shen Wan was tired and her back ached.
As soon as she returned to the post station, Xie Lian came to greet her.
"Helian Changjun wants to see you." He frowned slightly and said with some displeasure.
He hated Helian Changjun a hundred and twenty percent.
Everyone is busy and exhausted, but he still wants to make trouble.
Although Shen Wan was very tired, she still agreed.
Just when she wanted to settle the score with him, she didn't expect that this guy would come to her door on his own initiative.
