Like a huge rock smashed into a lake, Jin Yulang was shocked, but he didn't show it on his face, "Princess Qingping, what are you talking about? I don't understand. Please make way for me. I have important official business to attend to."
Mu Wanqing looked at him coldly, "Where are you escaping to? If you tell the truth, I will spare your life."
Jin Yulang's eyes were heavy as he shouted, "I am an official appointed by the court. I have a clear conscience. Why do you want to escape? But you, you broke the rules of the officialdom. Have you ever thought about the consequences?"
Mu Wanqing looked him up and down for a few times, then waved her hand and said, "Take him down."
Her subordinates gathered around the carriage. Jin Yulang grabbed the hem of her clothes with his right hand, looking angry. "Princess Qingping, are you crazy? Even if you are the princess, you are not qualified to arrest officials. You are violating taboos..."
His driver drew his sword and stood in front of Jin Yulang.
Mu Wanqing smiled faintly and said with her red lips, "If you dare to resist, I will kill you without mercy."
The atmosphere suddenly became tense. Jin Yulang looked at her in disbelief. He had seen Mu Wanqing from a distance more than once, and his impression of her was that she was a capable and smart girl.
However, it was not until the first close contact that I realized that Mu Wanqing was decisive and extremely cold-blooded.
He suddenly became timid, "Princess Qingping, there is a misunderstanding between us. Let's talk it out. I really don't know how I offended you. Let's find a place to talk it out, okay?"
His attitude was unprecedentedly humble, almost servile.
Unfortunately, he met the hard-hearted Mu Wanqing. Her eyes were cold and she said, "No, Jin Yulang, you have studied me for so long, don't you know what kind of person I am? I hold grudges, especially grudges. If you dare to plot against me, I will make your decades of hard work go to waste, leaving you nothing. This is my return gift to you."
If she wasn't so strong, she would have been kidnapped long ago, repeating the tragedy of five years ago.
Jin Yulang had never known that Mu Wanqing had such a tough side. "Mu Wanqing, you will regret this. I will do everything I can to appeal to the court and let all the civil and military officials know about your evil deeds..."
"Are you forcing me to kill someone?" Mu Wanqing raised her right hand while speaking, and a short arrow flew towards Jin Yulang.
No one expected that she would do it right away.
No matter how cunning Jin Yulang was, he showed a hint of surprise and leaned back subconsciously.
But it was too late. The short arrow hit Jin Yulang's chest accurately, and blood splattered on the spot.
Jin Yulang looked down at his bleeding chest, his mind went blank. He had been shrewd all his life, and had calculated all the situations in the world, but he had never expected that there would be such a day.
He was actually hurt by a girl!
Hidden crossbow, she actually has a hidden crossbow! How is this possible?
He endured the pain and tried to pull out the arrow, but found that he couldn't pull it out at all. The arrowhead was specially made... He was in so much pain that he broke out in a cold sweat, but he didn't even groan. "Who are you?"
Mu Wanqing smiled slightly, her smile was arrogant, "Whoever dares to offend me will be killed no matter how far away he is. Jin Yulang, your biggest mistake is to offend me."
Jin Yulang:......
He had to admit that he had miscalculated. Mu Wanqing was not an ordinary woman. When she went crazy, she could do anything.
His eyes went dark, his body tilted, and he fell down.
The middle-aged man was so frightened that his soul flew out of his body, "Ahhhh."
Dusifu
Shuai Du stays in the Xishan military camp all year round and rarely appears here.
Every time he shows up, it means something big has happened.
He looked at the woman covered in blood with a stern look on his face. Who would have thought that this woman was hiding so deeply?
Jiang Tongzhi was in charge of the investigation of the case. "Tell me, who are you from? Who do you usually contact? Tell me quickly, or I'll beat you again."
Mrs. Yao kept her eyes closed and pretended to be dead, ignoring everything.
Tongzhi Jiang didn't believe that there was anything wrong with Mrs. Yao at first, but after the trial he found that there was a serious problem.
During the interrogation, a guard came in and said, "Commander Du, Lord Yao is here."
Lord Yao walked in with a panic-stricken look on his face. The first thing he saw was his wife lying on the ground, and he felt a sharp pain in his heart.
He resisted the urge to rush over and saluted Du Shuai, "Hello, Du Shuai."
Du Shuai said calmly, "Master Yao, do you know the true identity of your wife?"
"Replying to Commander Du, I know nothing about this..." Lord Yao could no longer hold back, "Commander Du, are you sure? My wife is just an ordinary woman who is chatterbox and stupid, and she makes small mistakes all the time, but how could she be a spy?"
From the moment he received the news, his mind went blank and he was completely unable to think.
Jiang Tongzhi sneered, "Look, she refused to confess even after being beaten with a stick, and is still pretending to be dead. Her mentality is so tough, do you still think she is an ordinary woman?"
Lord Yao's legs felt weak, and he walked over with one foot deep and one foot shallow. "Su Xin, tell me, are you really a spy? Did you marry me to steal information?"
Mrs. Yao's eyelids moved, but she didn't open her eyes. "Master, when I married you, you had nothing. What can I want from you?"
At that time, Lord Yao had not yet become an official. He was just a poor scholar. He thought he was lucky to be able to marry the daughter of a wealthy businessman and get support from his wife's family.
But from another perspective, this can be considered an advance investment.
A soldier ran in, "General Du, the Lin family and their in-laws have all been arrested."
Du Shuai gave the order without hesitation, "Throw them to jail and interrogate them one by one." He didn't believe that everyone could be impeccable.
Mrs. Yao's face changed drastically. "General Du, although our Lin family is a businessman, we have great righteousness in our hearts and have repeatedly donated to the army. How could you believe a few rumors and put our Lin family to death? General Du, you are the General Du respected by everyone in Xiliang, the upright General Du..."
She looked heartbroken to see her idol become a scumbag, and she cried until she was hoarse.
"General Du, the Princess of Qingping County wants to see you."
Du Shuai was stunned for a moment, "Why is she here? Please."
Mu Wanqing walked over with brisk steps, followed by two guards carrying a stretcher with a pale-faced man lying on it.
"Commander Du, I have brought the mastermind of this case to you." Mu Wanqing gestured to put the stretcher on the ground so that everyone could see the unconscious man on the stretcher.
"Cousin." Mrs. Yao gasped. How could the tip-off have failed? How could it have fallen into Mu Wanqing's hands?
She looked at Jin Yulang's bleeding chest, shocked and angry, "Mu Wanqing, what did you do to him?"
Mu Wanqing asked someone to give Jin Yulang some simple first aid, as long as he wasn't dying.
"Why are you so excited? Someone who doesn't know would think this is your lover."
Lord Yao's body shook as if he was hit by thunder.
Mrs. Yao's eyes turned red with anger. "Mu Wanqing, this is all your fault. I just want you to marry my son. I was just thinking about it. I haven't even come to propose marriage yet, but you framed us like this. Your conscience has been eaten by a dog..."
Mu Wanqing's cold voice sounded, "Left hand."
"Ah." Jin Yulang woke up in pain and looked at his left hand with sweat all over his forehead. These people... actually picked the tendons of his hand. His left hand was disabled. How vicious.
Mu Wanqing didn't even blink, and said with a smile, "Mrs. Yao, keep making up stories. One sentence for each hand, and two legs."
"You...you..." Mrs. Yao felt as if her neck was strangled. She was extremely angry but also felt powerless.
Mu Wanqing has no heart!
Mu Wanqing admired it for a while, "General Du, Jin Yulang was the mastermind behind the ambush on me last time. What happened five years ago was also his doing."
Mrs. Yao was extremely angry and yelled, "You are talking nonsense. What does he want?"
Mu Wanqing chuckled, "It's very simple. What he wants is to insert someone into the power core of Xiliang Group. Miss Du is just a chess piece in his hands. After all, the eldest son-in-law of the Du family has entered the core. There is a precedent in front of us. You are tempted."
Such a simple thing can be seen at a glance.
"Unfortunately, man proposes, God disposes. Zhao Yifan is a hopeless case, and Coach Du doesn't favor his people based on personal connections. There has been no improvement in the past five years, so this move has become a wasted one."
She talked eloquently as if she had seen it all with her own eyes.
As she spoke, everyone's expressions became more and more complicated.
Mu Wanqing pointed at herself and said, "As for me, I am a third-rank county lady. I have money, status, and ability, so I naturally became the target of some people, and that's why there was an ambush and kidnapping. If I'm not mistaken, the person that Jin Yulang arranged for me is Master Yao."
Mrs. Yao was horrified. "No, no, you are just guessing."
Mu Wanqing shook her head slightly, too lazy to talk to her, the answer was already in her mind. "Jin Yulang, do you know where you exposed your flaws?"
Under her all-seeing eyes, Jin Yulang couldn't help but ask, "Where?"
Once these words were spoken, it was equivalent to admitting it, and everyone's expression changed.
Mrs. Yao, in particular, was so anxious that she lost control and said, "Cousin, don't talk nonsense."
Lord Yao was greatly shocked that his most trusted friend and relative turned out to be a spy.
When he thought about Jin Yulang being able to enter and leave his study freely, he felt dizzy.
What made him even more sad was that his wife and his friends teamed up to deceive and betray him.
However, Jin Yulang could no longer care about it. This was the part that puzzled him. Why did Mu Wanqing intercept him one step ahead? Why did she think he was the mastermind?
"Teahouse." Mu Wanqing spat out two words, and Jin Yulang's face changed when he heard it, "This is impossible, we haven't even met."
Mu Wanqing laughed loudly, "Yes, I was outside, and you were hiding in the secret room. I didn't break down the wall to pull you out. You didn't really think I was merciful and let you go, did you?"
Jin Yulang's face turned pale. He thought she was a fool at the time for giving up the opportunity right in front of her.
Only now did I realize that she didn't give up at all. It was clearly a feint to paralyze them.
"How did you find out about me?"
Mu Wanqing revealed another fact, "You are the boss behind the teahouse. The shopkeeper and the waiters are all your people, but how can loyalty remain unchanged in this world? As long as there are enough bargaining chips, everything can be negotiated."
Jin Yulang closed his eyes. He thought he was smart, but he overestimated himself and underestimated his opponent. He treated the evil-looking opponent as an ordinary lady.
"From then on, you entered my sight." Mu Wanqing's eyes were cold. "People only know that I can make money and do research and development, but they don't know that I am very good at analyzing things, and I am even better at predicting things in advance."
"My eyes are my ruler, and I rarely make mistakes. Jin Yulang, you lost. You lost to the girl you despise the most."
Mu Wanqing's eyes were filled with disdain and disgust. "You used countless women as pawns and manipulated their lives at will. Have you ever thought that this day would come?"
