Su Changfeng looked at his receding back, unable to recover for a long time. Finally, a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Then it turned ferocious.
Now, it's time for him to fight back!
"Lei Qi!"
The butler Lei Qi outside the door quickly pushed it open.
"Go, arrange people now to post the things we prepared earlier all over the streets and alleys of Luli City!"
"Sir! This!"
"Go!" Su Changfeng sneered, "Even if I die, I will make the other party lose a layer of skin!"
Lei Qi shed tears and choked up, "Okay, I'll go right away!"
…
The next morning, before Ye Xinran got up, she heard people whispering.
"Did you hear that?"
"It was posted everywhere in the streets, saying that the women who were kidnapped had their blood drained."
"It was made into beauty pills and supplied to the Empress Dowager and the Imperial Concubines in the palace! And also to several famous rouge shops!"
"Oh my god! This is so unfair! I've actually seen it in a rouge shop before. It's very expensive, most people can't afford it!"
"It's so horrible, it's made with a woman's blood!"
"There's something even more explosive! In this incident, the Hua family is the mastermind behind it, just to make money!"
"The second son of the Hua family doesn't like Miss Zhu at all, he just wants the Zhu family's money!"
"And the city guard is also a pitiful man! His daughter was captured by the criminals, and they threatened him to help!"
"Hey, could it be fake? Is someone taking revenge on the Hua family?" someone questioned.
"Hey, it's described in so much detail, I feel like it must be true!"
“Yeah, I think that’s true too.”
…
"Snap, snap!" The sound of soldiers cracking whips was heard outside the door.
Then the voice of officer Zhang Lai was heard.
"Listen everyone, the road to the northwest is blocked by rocks, so we will stay at the post station today, and all the rules will remain the same."
Then he said, "Bring the people up!"
Then he saw the soldier Zhou Shuo dragging Gu Yanxu and Ma up.
"Yin went out yesterday and has not returned for a day. As punishment! Today, her husband and mother-in-law will be beaten with fifty lashes each!"
Everyone was whispering.
Ye Xinran also stood up and walked out. He saw that the surrounding area was full of exiles and soldiers. On the upper floor, he also saw Li Yang and Dong Yishu.
The old princess and the old prince were also standing at the door, watching all this with frowns on their faces.
Gu Yanxin and Gu Yanlin also looked on with frowns.
Ye Xinran looked around and found that Gu Yanming was not there, and Jianshu and Daoqin were not there either.
The old prince shook off the old princess's hand and tried to step forward to stop her.
Ye Xinran stepped forward first and stopped him.
"My lord, no!"
Zhang Lai and Zhou Shuo were a little hesitant when they saw that the person who was speaking was Ye Xinran. After all, she was the princess. But they did not dare to disobey their superiors, so they had to look up at Dong Yishu and Li Yang.
Ye Xinran also looked up at them. Her eyes were bright, and her face was cold and solemn. She reminded people of Gu Yanming, who was equally majestic and inviolable. Her appearance was also extremely beautiful, so beautiful that people could not take their eyes away.
Dong Yishu looked at Ye Xinran like this, stunned for a moment, and a little obsessed.
Li Yang next to him coughed lightly.
He came back to his senses, touched his nose awkwardly, and turned to look at Li Yang.
"Master Li, look..."
"Master Dong, you are of a higher rank than me, so you have the final say!"
Just when Dong Yishu was about to drag Li Yang along to embarrass Wucheng Palace, Li Yang pushed him back softly. He felt a little depressed. But since he had said that, he could only do it himself.
He put on an elegant demeanor and said to Ye Xinran with a smile.
"Princess, this is the rule! If one person escapes, the whole family will be punished! I'm already showing mercy by not dragging the whole family down with me."
The little girls next to them were blushing so much that they really hoped that Mr. Dong would talk to them again.
Ye Xinran frowned, and understood what he meant. The whole family included the old prince, the old princess, and them, because they did not separate.
"Besides, there is a rule in place before. If one person escapes, his family members will be punished by death. I will only give you fifty lashes here! I am already showing mercy!"
Dong Yishu looked very embarrassed.
Ye Xinran smiled, "Of course I know that Master Dong is following the rules and taking good care of her! But Yin didn't escape, she was murdered! So, her family shouldn't be punished, right?"
Dong Yishu raised his eyebrows and smiled kindly, but the smile did not reach his eyes.
"Princess, do you have any evidence? After all, there are too many people exiled. If every person who escaped says that they were killed outside, I will not be able to explain myself here."
"I can testify!" Ye Xinran said, "Because yesterday Yin and I were both captured by criminals. Yin died in the hands of the criminals. I was just saved by the city guard who came over by chance!"
Dong Yishu didn't expect such a thing to happen, and he still didn't believe it! How could it be such a coincidence after so long?
“If the person dies, we will cut off one of their ears as proof, and then take it to the northwest to report to the local officials who take over!
Now, the princess said that Yin was dead. Where is Yin now? If she was murdered, there should be a body!"
"The body is here!"
Gu Yanming strode into the gate of the post station, followed by Dong Shu and Cheng Liang, officers and soldiers pushing a flatbed cart.
Gu Yanming's face was stern. He pointed at the flatbed truck and said in a low voice.
"Yin is here, Master Dong can come and check it out!"
Everyone looked towards the flatbed truck.
The car was covered with a white sheet, and you could see the concave and convex human figures underneath the sheet.
Someone whispered, "The person is really dead!"
“How pitiful…”
Dong Yishu coughed lightly and said to Zhou Shuo below.
"Go and take a look. If it is, follow the rules!" After he said that, he turned around and went back to the room.
Zhou Shuo sighed, walked forward helplessly, lifted the white cloth, and was startled.
This, Yin’s death was too tragic!
Not only was he naked, but he didn't have a single piece of good flesh on his body, and there were marks all over his body. It was obvious what he had gone through.
Many people gasped and turned away in fear. Families with girls pushed the girls behind them and stopped watching.
Gu Yanming stood directly in front of Ye Xinran, blocking her view.
Ye Xinran was both angry and amused, and gently pinched the soft flesh on Gu Yanming's waist as a punishment.
Gu Yanming didn't expect her to pinch him, and his body trembled uncontrollably. His ears turned red.
"Then, Your Majesty, I will bring people to deal with this body!" Zhou Shuo put down the white cloth and said politely to Gu Yanming.
Gu Yanming looked at Ma and Gu Yanxu and said, "Do you want to come over and take a look?"
Only then did everyone realize that Ma and Gu Yanxu had hidden away far away without them knowing when.
After hearing what Gu Yanming said, both of them shook their heads subconsciously.
Gu Yanming didn't care and said to Zhou Shuo, "You guys handle it!"
Zhou Shuo nodded.
Gu Yanming ignored her and directly took Ye Xinran's hand and walked into the house.
"Princess, I brought you something good!"
