"You!" Liu Ertie was speechless for a moment, and he admitted defeat.
He thought he was the hunter, but he never expected that he was the prey.
Thinking of this, Liu Ertie's eyes hardened. He was about to grit his teeth when Liu Jing grabbed his mouth and pulled the poison out of his back teeth.
"Don't be in such a hurry to die. Our girl didn't poison you. You'll die, so don't rush."
Then Liu Jing shut Liu Ertie up.
Su Ruojin slowly walked up to Magistrate Huang. "Magistrate, if we don't go to the trading location soon, we'll be late."
She and Liu Jing had carried those boxes before; they were very heavy, and they could hear the clanging of metal, confirming that they were indeed weapons inside.
Huang Tongpan arranged the ambush here, presumably because he was confident that the battle could be ended quickly, and it wouldn't be too late to deliver the goods.
"You said I'm going to take these goods away, Judge Huang, do you, or rather you and your family, have any way to survive?"
Su Ruojin suddenly changed the subject, "Oh, no, Magistrate Huang certainly won't care about Madam Huang, but I wonder if Magistrate Huang cares about the safety of Yun Die and her child."
Huang Tongpan's expression remained unchanged when Su Ruojin mentioned his family, but his face changed drastically upon hearing about Yun Die and her son, and his voice trembled slightly, "What did you do to them?"
"Nothing much, Lord Huang. I just had someone settle the mother and child in properly. As for what happens next, that's up to you, Lord Huang." Su Ruojin looked at Magistrate Huang with amusement.
"By the way, Lord Huang, what do you think Lord Tong would do if he knew you were playing tricks on him right under his nose?"
An Yi had been working day and night to reach Yicheng. With the help of the An Alliance members in Yicheng, they quickly found out what had happened and sent the information back by carrier pigeon.
It mentions that Yun Die, the courtesan who was killed by Qin Wenqing, actually gave birth to a son and is hiding in a small courtyard in Yicheng, where a nanny is taking care of her and her child.
An Yi bribed the nanny with a large sum of money. The nanny secretly told An Yi that every month on the fifteenth, a man from Yu Lin would come to Yicheng to visit Yun Die and her child. Judging from the man's appearance, he seemed to be the child's father.
An Yi showed the old woman several portraits and asked her to identify them. The old woman immediately recognized Huang Tongpan.
Su Ruojin didn't need to guess much to figure out the inside story.
Yun Die's death was, of course, pre-arranged to frame Qin Wenqing. Given Tong Mingshan's ruthlessness, Yun Die was nothing more than a courtesan, so of course she had to die in order to make things perfect.
But for some reason, Yundie got together with Magistrate Huang and even became pregnant with his child.
Huang Tongpan had a domineering wife who had been unable to conceive for many years and forbade him from taking a concubine. Naturally, Huang Tongpan cherished the child in Yundie's womb immensely, as it was his only child.
As Tong Mingshan's confidant, it wouldn't be difficult for Huang Tongpan to do something behind Tong Mingshan's back.
Upon hearing what Su Ruojin said, Magistrate Huang's face turned pale, and sweat visibly broke out on his forehead; he had lost his previous arrogance.
What exactly do you want?
"It's nothing, Lord Huang. These people are already dead, so it's my turn to escort you to deliver the goods. Lord Huang, lead the way."
Seeing that Magistrate Huang was still not moving, Su Ruojin added, "Lord Huang, your son is quite chubby and fair-skinned."
One sentence was enough to make Magistrate Huang stand up, and he said as if resigned to his fate, "Let's go, I'll lead the way."
"Third brother, you're in charge of keeping an eye on him."
Don't worry.
The person who just held a sword to Judge Huang's neck was none other than Su Wenzhou.
Su Ruojin had already noticed that Liu Ertie was acting strangely, so of course she couldn't just do nothing.
She had calculated that the delivery location would not be in Yulin City, so she had her third brother lead men to ambush outside the city in advance, and then secretly follow them after they left the city.
Now we're just waiting to see who's buying these weapons.
