Lin Caogen was furious. He took Luo Xue and Mu Wanqing and headed straight for the imperial city!
"Husband! Don't be too sad! Everything is fate. The most important thing now is to find Sister Bai Su. As for the 108 people from the Battle Axe District, they are doomed!"
Lin Caogen nodded and said, "Alright! But Su Su is hidden deep in the mountains, so it might be difficult to find! Let's go check inside the capital first!"
The three arrived at the foot of the imperial city gate, where the surrounding people and guards were all stunned!
"Wow! These two women are so beautiful!"
The soldiers guarding the city were so hungry when they saw Mu Wanqing and Luo Xue that their mouths were practically watering!
"Brother! I advise you not to get agitated! Anyone who can possess such a beauty must be extraordinary! Look at that young master, carrying a long sword and dressed in magnificent clothes, we can't afford to offend him! Let them into the city, don't cause any trouble!"
"Good brother! If you hadn't reminded me, I really would have liked to go down the city wall and grope those two women!"
The soldiers guarding the city watched Mu Wanqing and Luo Xue's retreating figures as they entered the city.
"My lord! We've already entered the imperial city. Where should we go first? Should we go straight to the palace to kill Nurhaci?"
Lin Caogen shook his head and said, "No! Let's go to the Dali Temple first! There's a prison there, and there are probably still quite a few prisoners inside!"
The three arrived at the entrance of Dali Temple. Just as Lin Caogen was about to rush in, he saw a woman beating a drum at the entrance to appeal for justice!
"Thump thump thump thump!"
The noise continued!
A constable rushed out and shouted, "Get out! The magistrate is taking a nap! What are you banging on for! If you want to file a complaint, go to the county office! This is the Dali Temple, we don't serve troublemakers like you!"
The woman was immediately taken away by the constables and thrown to the side of the road!
Lin Caogen angrily said, "It's already 3:30 in the afternoon! What, is the master still sleeping?"
An old man nearby said, "Young man! Keep your voice down! The world is not what it used to be! Sigh!"
Lin Caogen said, "Wanqing! Go help that woman up! Ask her what grievance she has."
After a moment, Mu Wanqing helped the woman to Lin Caogen and said, "Husband! Her family owes a high-interest loan and can't pay it back. Her daughter was sold to a brothel yesterday! She said that the person who lent her the money was Wang Yun, the county magistrate in the capital. However, this magistrate ostensibly lent money to save people, but in reality, the interest rate is shockingly high. It is interest-free for three days, but it doubles in ten days, and after a hundred days, it becomes an astronomical figure that is impossible to repay!"
Lin Caogen angrily retorted, "This is outrageous! Where was your daughter sold to? How about we pay to ransom her for you?"
The woman knelt down and said, "Benefactor! If you can redeem my daughter, we'll do anything for you, even be your slave! Please, sir, save my daughter!"
