Chapter 1033 Praise
Yu Jiu came to the death row again with a lot of anger.
"Open the door!"
Old Wu hurriedly used the key to open the prison door.
Just as Wen Jiucheng was about to stand up, he was kicked to the ground by Yu Jiu who rushed in.
Even though Yu Jiu still maintained the frail appearance of the county magistrate's wife, his martial arts and internal strength were still there. The kick was so powerful that Wen Jiucheng felt as if all his ribs in his chest were broken, and he gasped in pain.
Yu Jiu raised his foot and stepped on him, curling his lips and sneering.
"How dare you plot against me?"
All the acupuncture points on Wen Jiucheng's body were blocked, and he was unable to use his internal energy.
At this moment, he had no power to resist.
But there was a little smile on his face.
"Yu Er is dead?"
He used a question, but with his expression, it was obviously a statement.
Yu Jiu increased the force of his footsteps and said, "Even if Yu Er dies, you won't be able to have an easy life. I will make you pay the price for your own cleverness!"
Wen Jiucheng felt as if his internal organs were being crushed, and his face was distorted with pain.
At this moment, Fang Wujiu's voice suddenly came from the opposite side.
"If I were you, the most important thing I should do now is to find a way to cover up the county magistrate's death."
Yu Jiu paused.
He looked back at the cell across from him.
Fang Wujiu stood in the cell, looking at Yu Jiu through the window, his tone remaining steady and calm.
“Fufeng City is an important stronghold of Tianmen. Once the county magistrate here dies, the court will definitely send someone to investigate the cause of death as soon as possible and send a new county magistrate.
By then, everything that you, Tianmen, have arranged in Fufeng City will be discovered by the imperial court.
Compared to our life and death, the interests of Tianmen should be more important, right?"
Yu Jiu stared at him coldly: "It won't take much time to kill you two. I can kill you and then find someone to pretend to be Jian Shujie."
Fang Wujiu said slowly, "If we find someone to replace the county governor temporarily, it is very likely that there will be flaws. Once it arouses other people's suspicion, things will become more complicated. This is probably not the situation you want to see."
Yu Jiu raised his eyebrows: "Then what do you think we should do?"
Fang Wujiu raised his finger and pointed at the cell next door.
"If I'm not mistaken, the person imprisoned next door should be the real Jian Shujie. Instead of finding someone to take the blame temporarily, why don't you let the real Jian Shujie out?"
Yu Jiu glanced at the cell next door and sneered.
"The reason we locked Jian Shujie up here is to prevent him from getting in our way. If we let him out now, wouldn't that be like shooting ourselves in the foot? Even if you want to trick people, you shouldn't use such despicable means."
Faced with his sarcasm, Fang Wujiu did not get angry, and his attitude remained gentle and calm.
"Didn't you capture the wife of the county magistrate? You can threaten him with her life and make him obey you. He and his wife are deeply in love, so he won't be willing to let his wife get hurt."
Yu Jiu looked at him suspiciously: "How do you know that the county magistrate's wife is in our hands?"
Fang Wujiu: “To perfectly play a person, not only does one need to have the same appearance, but also the same personality and preferences.
These are not something that can be learned at a glance; you need to understand them slowly.
The county magistrate and his wife will definitely not take the initiative to reveal their information to you, and it is not very accurate to rely solely on the description of others.
The most likely approach you will take is to lock them up and force them to tell you all their information.
If I were you, in order to prevent them from lying, I would deliberately detain the couple separately and threaten each other with their lives, forcing them to tell the truth.
Now the county magistrate is imprisoned in the cell next door, so the county magistrate's wife must be imprisoned somewhere else by you.
Am I right, Lord Governor? "
When he said the last sentence, Fang Wujiu raised his hand and knocked on the wall next to him.
There was no response from inside the adjacent cell.
Yu Jiu's face had already darkened: "Did Jian Shujie tell you all this?"
Fang Wujiu smiled slightly: "No, I guessed it myself."
When he learned that the real Jian Shujie was imprisoned in the cell next door, he had already guessed the whole story.
Fang Wujiu spoke slowly and calmly.
"The reason why you still keep the real Jian Shujie is because you can't guarantee that Yu Er can completely replace Jian Shujie.
You need to rely on Jian Shujie to provide real and useful information.
This will allow Yu Er to better play the role of Jian Shujie and prevent him from revealing any flaws in front of outsiders.
This is the greatest benefit of his survival until now.
If he had no such use, I'm afraid he would have been killed by you guys a long time ago."
Yu Jiu withdrew his foot from Wen Jiucheng and clapped lazily. The scattered applause sounded in the cell, seeming particularly abrupt.
"As expected of a disciple of Xuanmen, you are so smart!"
Then he changed the subject and his expression suddenly became sinister and cold.
"But what I hate most is smart people!"
He raised his hand and a silver needle flew out from his sleeve and shot towards Fang Wujiu at an extremely fast speed!
Fang Wujiu took a step to the side and hid behind the wall.
The silver needle missed.
Yu Jiu walked towards the cell opposite.
He originally wanted to start with Wen Jiucheng, but now he has changed his mind.
He decided to kill Fang Wujiu first, and then slowly torture Wen Jiucheng.
He would make these two guys pay the price for their arrogance!
Just then, Old Wu came running over in a hurry.
"Master Nine, something terrible has happened! The news of the county magistrate's sudden death has spread, and now all the officials in the city have rushed to the county magistrate's mansion, clamoring to find out the truth behind the county magistrate's sudden death!"
Yu Jiu stopped suddenly.
He looked at Old Wu in disbelief.
"Didn't I tell them not to spread the news that the governor was seriously ill? How did the officials in the city know about this?"
Old Wu shook his head: "I don't know either. The visitor didn't tell me."
The old city of Wen has risen from the ground.
He sat on the ground, gently rubbed his chest with one hand, and said while enduring the pain.
"The only way to appease those officials now is to have the county magistrate show up immediately. As long as the county magistrate himself shows up, the rumors of his sudden death will be dispelled."
Yu Jiu knew that Wen Jiucheng was telling the truth, but he felt that neither Wen Jiucheng nor Fang Wujiu were the kind of people who would kindly offer advice. These two guys must be up to something bad!
But things have evolved to this point and Yu Jiu has no choice.
He had to appease those officials as soon as possible.
Before Tianmen’s plan is officially implemented, no accidents can occur in Fufeng City!
Yu Jiu felt extremely regretful at this moment.
He shouldn't underestimate Fang Wujiu and Wen Jiucheng. Even if their acupoints were sealed and their hands and feet were locked, these two guys could still force everyone into the trap they set.
"I should have killed you the first time I saw you!"
Wen Jiucheng smiled despite the pain: "Can I take this as a compliment to us?"
…
Good morning everyone!
