"You drugged me!"
After saying that, Yu Zhenqiang's fist came flying at Yang Cui's face, but Su Yutang kicked him two meters away.
He immediately vomited blood and lay on the ground unable to move.
The Wan Songbai couple were horrified. At that moment, they realized they couldn't move either, and they shouted, "Help! Help!"
Immediately afterwards, the sounds of swords clashing and screams rang out from outside the door.
Soon, Yin Neng entered, cupped his hands respectfully, and said, "Madam, there are a total of nineteen people outside, and they have all been brought under control!"
“Gag them and lock them all up.”
"yes!"
"Yang Cui, you...you assassinated a high-ranking official! This is a capital offense, and it will implicate others. The higher-ups won't let you off!" Wan Songbai was so frightened he could barely speak. "Aren't you afraid of death?"
"Heh, you collude with rebels and aren't afraid of having your homes ransacked and your families wiped out, so why should I be afraid?"
"So you knew all along! Since you know who my superiors are, you should release us and obediently hand over the money and the formula! Otherwise..."
“Yu Zhenqiang, you’re already a prisoner, so stop dreaming. His Majesty is benevolent and loves his people, and this empire will not change hands. As for you… if you cooperate with me now, perhaps I can save your son’s life and preserve a bloodline for your Yu family.”
Yu Zhenqiang was terrified.
Why was Yang Cui so certain that the throne wouldn't change hands? And why did she dare to kidnap him? Could it be...?
"Yin Neng, they're all yours now." Since Yu Zhenqiang is Qingyang King's man, he must have had other purposes in sending him here. They must be interrogated!
...
Yang Cui grew up under the red flag and has always been law-abiding. She had never thought of doing things like kidnapping or drugging before.
But now they've forced her to do it!
Since they are Qingyang King's men, they will never let her go! She won't give them the chance to harm her!
Even if she doesn't think about herself, she has to think about the children.
So we struck first and caught them off guard!
The Wan family and Yu Zhenqiang never expected her to have such audacity, otherwise they wouldn't have failed.
~
Wan'an County is too far from Kyoto, and news travels too slowly. Yang Cui really wants to know what the situation is like in Kyoto now.
And Cen Xiao…
Yang Cui knew that Cen Xiao was definitely not dead!
On the day he left, he said that no matter what news he heard in the future, he should believe that he would definitely come back!
Yang Cui thought that at that time, he must have been implying to her that "he would die"!
When she heard the bad news, her fainting spell was genuine; she hadn't even thought about it at the time and only realized it a few days later.
She brought the ashes back to Wan'an, but it was just for show. After all, people believe in returning to their roots. He was dead, so wouldn't it arouse suspicion if she didn't bring them back?
...
There were already many people watching Yang Cui, and now that she has gone to such lengths to arrest so many people, it's impossible to keep it a secret.
"Yang Cui actually arrested the county magistrate! She... she..." An Huangshi, the village chief's wife, trembled with fear. "This is a capital offense!"
Village Chief An never expected Yang Cui to be so bold!
"Old man, at this point, we must sever ties with her!"
After learning about the attitudes of Village Chief Zhou and Clan Chief Yan, Village Chief An also decided to follow suit this time, hoping to win Yang Cui's favor and strive to gain more benefits for the An family!
But he never expected Cui to go so far; he was truly terrified! They were just ordinary people who only wanted to live peacefully.
This woman is terrifying!
When Village Chief An and his wife Huang came to find Yang Cui, Yang Cui already guessed their purpose.
They used to think Yang Cui was not someone to be trifled with and were wary of her, but now they are genuinely afraid of her!
Upon seeing Yang Cui, the elderly couple, who had lived half their lives, trembled in their legs.
"I know why you're here. Go and settle the bill with Xicai."
After Village Chief An left, the remaining villagers of Anjia Village gradually arrived.
They were already hesitant, but now that they knew Yang Cui was so audacious, they were all terrified.
