His sudden words surprised Su Li. Could it be that he had confirmed wrongly that this bottle was not the antidote?
"My benefactor killed Nunut. He was the brother-in-law of our county magistrate. He used my sister's favor to run amuck in this area. If anyone finds out that he's dead, they'll definitely trace it back to me.”
"Benefactor, you should leave early and not be implicated by me. If Shen Fu is lucky enough to not die, he will definitely repay me with his life in the future!”
Shen Fu knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to Su Li.
"County magistrate?"
Su Li did not comment. She turned around and walked into the city.
"This…"
"I'll listen to you, benefactor!"
"Look, isn't that Shen Fu and his father, Shen Ling? Why did they enter the city? Aren't you afraid that Nunut will come looking for trouble?"
Many people in the city knew the Shen father and son. After all, their winery was quite famous and was very popular among the people.
The moon was dark and the wind was strong.
At this time, the city was pitch-black. There was no light to illuminate it. Only a few scattered night watchmen were patrolling the city with lanterns. In this environment, it was as if they were in a ghost's domain. The silence was chilling.
Whoosh!
"Eh, did a figure flash past just now?”
A night watchman accidentally saw a black shadow flash across his lantern and muttered while looking around.
"No, I didn't see anyone, unless I saw a ghost."
Before he could finish, he quickly slapped his mouth with his hand, looking a little nervous.
"Bah!"
The county magistrate's office at night was different from other places. There would be a team of guards patrolling here from time to time. Su Li had observed carefully in the dark. There were a total of five teams, each team of twenty people.
Although these five teams were not his match even if they joined forces, Su Li had come here to assassinate the county magistrate to prevent future trouble. If the commotion was too big and alerted the enemy, it would not be good if he escaped!
"There are so many guards. It seems that the status of the people here must not be low. Let's go and take a look first.”
Right at this moment, Su Li saw a room with lights on. There were also a few vague figures. Her interest was immediately piqued.
"Old Master, it's all thanks to you that second brother's matter was resolved this time. Otherwise, it might have become a mess.”
"This younger brother of mine is really troublesome. He can't even defeat a foreigner. To think that he has managed the winery for so long!”
"Haha, this isn't his fault. I've tasted the Shen family's Hundred Flower Wine before. The taste is indeed top-notch.”
"Besides, he's your younger brother after all, my brother-in-law. Who else can I help if not him? As long as he obtains the recipe, I'll promote it. The benefits of this will be even greater."
"Old Master, then if the Shen father and son refuse to hand over the recipe, then what should we do?”
The woman sounded worried.
"Don't worry, I am also clear about the Shen family's situation. The Shen father and son have stubborn tempers and are not afraid of death. Even if we torture them, they will not yield. However, Shen Fu is the most filial. As long as we tell him about his father being poisoned, we don't have to worry about him not obediently handing over the recipe!”
"Master is wise!"
The candlelight flickered. In the luxuriously decorated bedroom, a seductive woman was lying in the arms of a man. Her slender hands were constantly swimming around, giving the man an extraordinary feeling.
"Master, this servant…I want to..."
The woman's charming eyes were like silk as she gently bit her lips. That bright red color emitted a seductive temptation, and from time to time, deep panting could be heard from her nose.
"Hehe, Madam, a night in spring is worth a thousand gold. Then we won't delay any longer!”
"Master ~"
Suddenly, just as the two of them were about to delve into the philosophy of life, a crisp applause sounded from the side.
"Who is it?"
"Get out here!"
When the two of them encountered such a situation, they were so frightened that they hurriedly sat up from the bed. At this moment, their clothes were half-undone, especially the seductive woman. A large portion of her snow-white skin was exposed.
"There's no need to panic. I just happened to pass by this place and came to observe.”
"Impudent!"
"Men! Someone come quickly!"
Liu Changzhou was a Han, the county magistrate of Anfeng County. His wife, Qiqige, was born into a local Yuan family and was quite powerful. Nunuert was her younger brother.
As Liu Changzhou continued to shout, Su Li had no intention of stopping him. He had already taken care of the surrounding guards. The patrol team had just passed by, so there would not be anyone else here for a while.
"Lord Liu, do you want to drink a cup of tea before continuing to shout?”
"Tsk, it's not good to shout until your throat is dry!”
Su Li picked up a cup and poured a cup of hot tea for Liu Changzhou. Liu Changzhou fell silent when he saw how calm he was.
