165. Chapter 165: The Misogyny Emperor vs. the Wife of a Powerful Official (18)



"Don't underestimate me. We brothers have performed our talents not only in Jiangnan, but also in various places in Dongchu. If you are willing, we can take the petition you wrote and set off to the Imperial City!"

The suspicion in the people's eyes did not diminish at all.

This man cut the girl's tendons without even blinking, how scary! They would never hand over any petition to an executioner! The big man instantly understood the people's eyes, and he grinned when he achieved his goal: "My sister's tendons have been cut by me, and now it's time for everyone to open their eyes, don't blink!"

As the big man spoke, he came to the wooden box that was gushing blood with his big knife, walked around the wooden box in a pretentious manner, and then squatted down and patted the wooden box that was still gushing blood.

Everyone stared at the big man's movements without blinking. After several operations, the big man stood up from the wooden box and looked at the onlookers.

"Okay, I have reconnected my sister's hamstrings remotely."

Everyone: “???”

No, connecting the tendons remotely?

Are you kidding me?! The big man knew that the people didn't believe him, so he asked someone to open the wooden box. In front of everyone, the little girl jumped out of the box alive and well.

Everyone was shocked and their jaws dropped when they saw the little girl in front of them was safe and sound.

"No, nothing's wrong? Is the little girl really okay?"

An aunt stared at the little girl.

"Auntie, I'm really fine, just believe me and see."

The little girl said this and turned around in front of everyone.

After seeing the little girl with both legs intact, Jiang Li crossed her arms and looked at Qing Zhu beside her: "What do you think? I told you that this little girl would be fine."

"Miss, this, this, this, connecting legs in the air?"

Qingzhu's eyes widened, he grabbed Jiang Li's arm and looked at her in shock.

Seeing the simple-minded Qingzhu Jiang Li showed helplessness: "Just listen to him. If it is true that legs can be reconnected through the air, there will be no lame people in this world. The reason why the little girl is safe and sound is that there is another trick in this box."

The people surrounding the stage rubbed their eyes and looked up and down at the little girl on the stage. At this time, Shen Tingsi and Feng Jue, who were standing in front of the sparsely populated lakeshore, also looked towards the stage.

However, what they cared about was not the safe little girl, but the remarks made by the big man just now.

"Master, in my opinion, the talent show is fake. What he just said is the real purpose of this big man. Could it be that this Jiangnan City is not as lively and prosperous as it seems on the surface, and there is another hidden story behind it?"

After listening to the big man's words, Feng Jue extracted the meaning of the big man's words and guessed secretly.

Shen Tingsi narrowed his eyes thoughtfully and said in a deep voice: "After the show, pay attention to that person's movements. Don't alert him first."

"yes."

Feng Jue nodded in agreement.

Today, the big man deliberately used his talent show to stir up public anger. There must be some unknown secrets hidden behind this Jiangnan City, and the big man happens to be the breakthrough point. Perhaps we can learn something from him.

Thinking of the reports from the imperial envoys he sent to Jiangnan to investigate the case, Shen Tingsi's face gradually darkened.

Did they fail to find out, or did they know the truth but conceal it deliberately? A lantern festival made Shen Tingsi feel that he had come to the right place. The big man was still performing on the stage. Shen Tingsi stood by the lake with his hands behind his back, waiting for the show to end.

Not only did Jiang Li guess that there was another secret in the wooden box, but the shocked people also did not quite believe the statement of connecting legs through the air, and they all questioned the wooden box behind the big man.

Facing everyone's doubts, the big man was not panicked at all. He looked at everyone calmly and said, "Since you all suspect that there is something wrong with this wooden box, then I will let you see it clearly."

After he finished speaking, he waved to the two brothers standing nearby and said, "Xiaowu and Xiaoliu, since everyone wants to see the whole box, you two come over and turn the box around so that everyone can take a closer look!"

"Yes! Big brother!"

The other two big men walked forward and moved the box, slowly revealing the back of the box.

Jiang Li crossed her arms and calmly watched the two people moving the wooden box on the stage. She had already guessed what the structure behind the wooden box was.

However, when all the wooden boxes were turned around, Jiang Li was stunned...

The back of the wooden box was flat and there was no extra space as expected! How could this be possible?

"Well, now everyone has seen it clearly, is there anything wrong with this wooden box?"

The big man remained extremely calm throughout, and did not panic no matter how the people questioned him.

"Impossible, this is impossible! Even if the divine doctor Hua were alive, he couldn't reconnect tendons remotely!"

The big man made a gesture of invitation when he heard this: "If you don't believe me, you can come up and check it yourself."

"I'll do it!"

As soon as he finished speaking, someone volunteered to come to the stage, but after checking, they didn't find anything wrong. Several people went up to the stage to check, but in the end they all went down with nothing.

"Is there anyone else coming up?"

The big man looked at the people below and asked, and Jiang Li stepped forward.

"I."

"This lady please."

Jiang Li came to the wooden box and looked around. The big man still looked calm at this time, but when Jiang Li's hand that was touching the box fell on the mechanism button, the big man staggered and almost fell to the ground.

He quickly stepped forward to stop her: "Miss, Miss, please show mercy!"

The big man whispered in a voice that only he and Jiang Li could hear.

Jiang Li curled her lips: "I'm not the kind of person who ruins the mood, but if you want me to show mercy, you have to promise me one thing."

"Girl, please speak."

"Leave me your address so I can install a mechanism for you when I need it."

Jiang Li stated her request, and the big man nodded without hesitation and whispered his address.

Jiang Li exchanged a glance with the big man, turned around and walked down the stage, pretending not to notice the mechanism on the box.

The big man performed a few more shows with a few of his brothers and then announced his exit. The people who had no acrobatics to watch dispersed in all directions.

As dusk fell, Jiang Li and Qing Zhu, who had been strolling for the whole afternoon, returned and headed towards the General's Mansion.

After seeing the direction the big man left, Shen Tingsi and Feng Jue looked at each other and walked towards the arch bridge in front of them.

The sound of a piano came from the lake. Everyone stopped and looked towards the lake, and saw a boat with a thin gauze tent and swaying bamboo curtains slowly approaching.

"The Oiran is the Oiran of Wanhua Tower!"

"The Oiran has shown up? Let's go and take a look!"

"I heard that the courtesan in Wanhua Tower looks like a fairy and plays the piano very well. We are in for a treat to hear her play the piano today!"

After seeing the sailboat, everyone rushed onto the arch bridge and walked towards the lake, and the scene instantly became lively.

"Hey, don't push, everyone, don't push!"

"Ouch! Who stepped on my foot?"

Screams came from the crowd, and Jiang Li and Qing Zhu quickly moved to the side.

Even so, she was still not immune to the impact. Someone bumped into Jiang Li, and her whole body leaned forward!

"Miss!"

Qingzhu exclaimed and was quickly squeezed into the crowd.

Bang--
