At night.
Jiang Mengli, wearing night clothes, sneaked into the mansion of County Magistrate Lin.
The mansion is now rather deserted, with candlelight scattered here and there. There is not even any candlelight in the main courtyard. Only a relatively remote and small courtyard seems to have people.
She looked at the small courtyard and muttered to herself, "This small courtyard should be where the concubines live, right? It's unusual for the main courtyard to be empty at this time."
It would be better to catch someone and ask him first. Who knows where Magistrate Lin is?
She immediately took out a pill and put it in her mouth. It was a voice-changing pill that could be used to hide her identity.
Then he jumped up and lay on the roof looking down.
In the darkness, a pair of handsome eyes narrowed slightly, staring at Jiang Mengli's figure, and the corners of his mouth under the mask raised slightly.
At this moment, the door creaked open, and a graceful young woman came out with a basin of water and poured the water out.
Just as the woman turned to go into the house, Jiang Mengli quickly jumped off the roof, covered the woman's mouth from behind and dragged her into the house.
"Mmmmm..." The woman struggled in fear, looking extremely panicked.
Jiang Mengli freed one hand to touch her lower abdomen, leaned close to her ear and threatened: "You can let go, but if you dare to yell, I will kill you."
The woman's cheeks turned red instantly when she heard this, and her earlobes were so red that blood seemed to drip out, but she seemed to be disobedient and continued to struggle hard.
Jiang Mengli quickly pushed her down on the bed and gently stroked her smooth cheek. "The more you struggle, the more excited I get, hehe... my little beauty..."
On the roof, a pair of handsome eyes suddenly turned cold, and the veins on his fists bulged: Damn woman, she actually teased a girl, she is really hungry!
The woman suddenly stopped struggling, and the look in her eyes became somewhat ambiguous.
When Jiang Mengli released her mouth, she said delicately, "Sir, your eyes are so beautiful. If you like it, I can serve you..."
As she spoke, she lifted her clothes to reveal her shoulders, and put her hands on Jiang Mengli's waist, trying to untie her belt, and her legs actively clamped her body.
This action left Jiang Mengli and the people on the roof stunned.
Just as the woman was about to offer a kiss, Jiang Mengli hurriedly turned over and got out of bed.
"Sir, what's wrong with you? Come on, my master is not at home, so no one will know."
As he spoke, he took off his clothes, leaving only his bellyband.
He winked at her, caressing her thigh with his fingers in a seductive and alluring manner.
Jiang Mengli quickly drew his sword and put it on her neck. "I don't like people who take the initiative. Tell me the truth. Where did your master go?"
The woman was so frightened that her face turned pale. She looked at Han Jian nervously, not daring to move an inch, and stammered in response:
"I-I-I only know that the master was called away by the yamen a few days ago and never came back. This afternoon, someone from the yamen came and called away the mistress and the young master."
Hearing this, Jiang Mengli quickly retracted his sword and stepped forward to help her pull her clothes. "Wear them properly, don't catch a cold."
After saying that, he left the room and left the county magistrate's mansion using his lightness skills.
She hadn't gone far when someone grabbed her arm and dragged her into the alley and pushed her against the wall.
"Jiang Mengli, I underestimated you." Wen Mohan pulled off his mask and stared into her eyes. "Not only do you like to tease me, you also like to tease women. You're not picky about food, regardless of gender!"
Jiang Mengli was about to draw his sword, but he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw it was him. "Men can do it regardless of gender, so why can't women? If I hadn't saved you, you would have been abused by men."
This is the most difficult experience for him to talk about.
Now when he heard the woman mention it again, his face turned ashen and cold.
"Damn woman!" Wen Mohan pressed her even tighter, leaning closer to her face and squinting his eyes, saying, "Do you believe that I will torture you right now?"
The air froze instantly, their hearts were pounding, and they seemed to be able to hear each other's breathing and swallowing sounds.
There seemed to be flames dancing in their eyes as they looked at each other, making their cheeks hot and their breathing became a little rapid.
Wen Mohan stared at her pink and tender lips, swallowed his saliva and kissed her. His kiss was domineering yet gentle, affectionate and devoted.
Jiang Mengli was still slightly stunned. This was the first time Wen Mohan took the initiative to kiss her, as if they were in love with each other...
Just when she was about to fall into it, she suddenly came to her senses and reached out to push him away. "If you really treat me badly, you will regret it. You said that we can do anything except have sex."
Wen Mohan heard this, and after realizing what was happening, he sneered, "Do you really think that this king would touch you? Just now...just now I was just testing whether you are really determined not to have this king give you a child."
"Very good. I am very satisfied with your performance. No matter the circumstances, you were right to push me away. From the moment you were Jiang Dingshan's daughter, there was no way anything could happen between us."
As he spoke, veins bulged from his clenched hands in his sleeves, and his nails were almost digging into his flesh.
He didn't know why, but his heart ached. The pain, like a knife twisting its spine, spread from his heart to his internal organs and limbs.
Jiang Mengli wasn't in much better shape. Her heart ached so much that she couldn't utter a word. She just glanced at him indifferently and turned away.
The air has become a little colder, as if winter has arrived, and it is chilly all around.
She stopped on the deserted street, looked up at the night sky and took a deep breath. After repeating this several times, her heart finally felt much better.
"You're crazy, but it's not like you have to be that way! There are fewer handsome men, but you're not the only one!"
When I returned to the capital, the first thing I did was to divorce.
No matter whether he is in a good mood or not, if he doesn't sign, let the emperor issue an imperial decree of divorce!
After Jiang Mengli calmed down, she quietly came to the yamen. The area here was quite large, so she could only hide and move around.
Just as she turned outside the torture chamber, she faintly heard the boy crying.
"Let me go home. I haven't committed any crime. Why are you locking me up? Woohoo..."
"Shut up! If you keep yelling, I'll tear your mouth apart and make you unable to speak again!"
Under the threat, only sobbing was left, and no more shouting.
Now Jiang Mengli can be sure that County Magistrate Lin and his family of three are being held in here.
"They are being held here..." Suddenly, the voice of Prefect Liu came.
Jiang Mengli quickly hid in the dark and watched.
Prefect Liu walked in front with a humbly gesture, followed by Wen Jingyun and Tiezi in wheelchairs.
When she saw it, her eyes lit up: Wen Jingyun was hiding here, and after searching everywhere for a long time, he finally found it without any effort. Now things are going to get exciting...
Wen Jingyun walked into the torture chamber with his cane, looked at the embarrassed County Magistrate Lin and said coldly, "I heard that you stole the disaster relief food, which prevented the previous disaster relief mission from being successfully completed."
"No, that's not the case!" Magistrate Lin shook his head in denial. "You can't listen to him. The disaster wasn't dealt with promptly because Lord Liu wasn't willing to release the grain!"
"He...he's not only withholding grain, he's also withholding silver. He said we can share the spoils once the court allocates more money and grain!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wen Jingyun chuckled and said, "No, you should say that the relief grain and silver were embezzled by Prince Yu and his wife, and they secretly transported them away in the middle of the night."
"For the sake of the people, this prince and Prefect Liu and others had to pay out of their own pockets to win over wealthy merchants to buy grain to solve the problem of food and clothing for the people."
