Chapter 90 Where is your wife? 】
Seeing this, Yuan Xun suddenly became determined and punched a bandit, saying, "No! I will never let you kill them unless I die today!"
It’s a pity that although his skills are good among the officials, these bandits are more skilled.
A bandit quickly came up to fight him.
Yuan Xun discovered that this bandit was actually the one he had fought with before and whom he felt inexplicably familiar with!
The masked man stood up and said, "Continue searching the other prisoners."
Having said that, he followed Chen Fenghe and the others to the back.
Xiao Yunhao raised his head and asked fearfully, "Mom, are we going to die?"
Qin Mengyue burst into tears. She hugged him and comforted him in a trembling voice, "Don't be afraid, Hao'er... Mother will be by your side. It won't... hurt..."
Shen Yichuan and Shen Qingxing were also frightened, but they both held Shen Fenghe's hands tightly and said bravely: "Sister, we are not afraid of death! As long as we are together..."
Chen Fenghe shook their hands distressedly and whispered, "Don't worry, I promise everything will be fine..."
The bandits took them to a relatively remote place and then stopped.
Chen Fenghe released the safety of her revolver. There were five bullets in the pistol. There were five or six bandits following her. She was a very accurate shooter and should be able to kill them all within ten seconds. As for the remaining two... there was no time to reload...
However, just take out another gun from the space.
She has no shortage of guns...
At this time, the masked man in the lead turned around.

In the Dragon and Tiger Hall, Yuan Xun was defeated again and was subdued by the masked bandit. Eventually, he and Chen Wu, Li Yong and others were sent back to the dungeon.
The other prisoners were taken away one by one and their money was searched. After they came back, they all started whispering to each other.
"I heard that this group of bandits was bribed by someone to kill the Queen, the Crown Princess, and the Ninth Prince!"
"Oh my god! Madam Qin, Madam Shen, and the three children have all been taken to the back mountain and killed! I heard that these bandits want to keep their heads as evidence..."
"How pitiful! So many people, all of a sudden..."
"Will we be killed too? Oh my god! I don't want to die!"
"No... I just overheard the bandit leader say that if they can't find the Queen and the Crown Princess, they'll kill everyone. If they do find them, they'll just kill them and won't harm our lives!"
"Then...then when will we be released?"
"Madam Qin and the others are already dead, it should be soon..."
Zhang Zhou, her son Zhang Yuan, and her daughter-in-law couldn't help but wipe away their tears.
Along the way, Chen Fenghe asked Zhang Yuan to help pull the cart, and the dozens of coins he gave her every day were enough to cover the expenses of their family of three, so they were grateful to Chen Fenghe from the bottom of their hearts.
I never expected that at such a young age, she would end up with her head and body separated...
Zhang Zhou wiped her tears and said, "Yuan'er, when we are released, you ask the official for mercy and go... go to the back mountain to check. If you can find the bodies of her, her mother-in-law, and her brothers and sisters, then... help them collect the bodies and bury them. We have received so much kindness from Miss Shen, we can't be so conscienceless..."
Zhang Yuan listened and nodded in agreement, "Oh, Mom, I understand."
Everyone in the prison sighed. After all, when the horse mulberry fruit poisoning occurred last time, those who were poisoned had all received favors from Chen Fenghe. Chen Fenghe was usually a good person.
Only the Qin family members were secretly happy when they heard that Chen Fenghe and Qin Mengyue had been killed.
All the silver, money and jewelry they had on them were taken away, all because of them.
If the bandits didn't want to kill them, why would they risk robbing the exile team!
Thinking of this, Qin Jinzhong recalled how Qin Huanhuan had the audacity to secretly steal so many banknotes without their knowledge. His face darkened as he said, "Boss! When we get to Qizhou, I'll sell this selfish, shameless creature off!"
"Father! Father-in-law, please think twice! Huan'er...she is..." Although Qian Qiuyun hated Qin Huanhuan for being selfish and hiding so much money, even hiding it from her own mother, she was still her own flesh and blood after all, and she really couldn't bear it...
Liu Cui then spoke:
"Sister-in-law, now that we've been plundered by the bandits, our entire family doesn't have a single copper coin on us! Without money, are we going to have to eat steamed buns along the way? Even if we can bear it, how can my father-in-law and grandmother, who are old, bear it? Besides, selling children is a common thing. In the past, the maids in our house and the prostitutes in the brothels were all sold by their families. It's not something we haven't seen before. Our family has fallen on hard times, and we can't all starve to death together, right? Sister-in-law is reluctant to sell her, so are you going to sell both of your daughters-in-law, or you and me?"
These words made Qin Jian and Qin Chang's daughter-in-law tremble, and Qian Qiuyun didn't dare to say anything more.
Although the whole family had been competing to cry poor before, it was mostly just pretense because everyone knew that they were hiding money from each other.
Now everything has been searched thoroughly, not a penny left.
Although they were also called Madam and Young Madam by the maids before, times have changed now. The family has fallen on hard times, so who would still pamper them?
If you don’t sell Qin Huanhuan, you have to sell them!
Qian Qiuyun glanced at Qin Huanhuan who was curled up in the innermost part of the cell, wiped away her tears, and fell silent.
Qin Huanhuan didn't pay attention to what the Qin family said. Later, she was slapped several times by the angry Qin Jinzhong and Qin Liqing, and her mind was already dizzy.
Furthermore, the heat in her body was increasing instead of decreasing. She was dazed and just wanted to tear off her clothes. And... the scenes of her past with Li Yong and Lai Hu kept appearing in her mind...
It seems as if...
Qin Huanhuan was suddenly startled, remembering that Shen Fenghe had just discovered that she had poisoned the water. Since she had already discovered it, she would definitely retaliate. Could it be that... she secretly brought the poisoned water back for her to drink?
Otherwise...how to explain her current symptoms? !
But...how could it be? She clearly...
Li Yong!
It was the water Li Yong sent over! No wonder she thought it tasted wrong...
Qin Huanhuan was extremely annoyed and angry, and at the same time she became anxious and frightened.
She had also heard about this medicine privately from the daughters of officials in the capital. They said it was commonly used in brothels and was extremely effective.
She looked into the cell. All the prisoners were locked up in one large cell, while the officers were in another small, separate cell.
If she continued like this, she would lose her mind and shamelessly throw herself into the arms of men. If this was noticed by the men in the cell...
Sure enough, several men had noticed her abnormality and were looking at her with ill intentions.
Suddenly, a muffled groan was heard from the dungeon door, followed by the sound of fighting, and then silence returned again.
The people in the cell didn't understand what was going on. They all huddled together in fear, looking outside in horror.
Could it be that... these bandits were planning to go back on their word and kill them all to silence them?!
At this time, a man in black with the lower half of his face covered with a black cloth quickly rushed to the door of the cell.
He looked anxiously into the cell and his heart sank.
When he saw Zhang Yuan, the man in black opened the lock with his key, entered the cell, grabbed Zhang Yuan, and asked in a deep voice, "Where is your wife?"
