Niu Debao and the other bailiffs were now completely following Liu Xuan's lead. Without any hesitation, they carried their swift knives and went.
In less than the time it took for an incense stick to burn, He Yunbai and Zhao Mingcheng were chained up and brought to the yamen.
Then, Liu Xuan waved his hand and had Niu Debao and the other two leave with the bailiffs. Only Liu Xuan, Zhao Mingcheng, and Qin Ruishi, who was hiding in the dark, were left in the hall.
"Lord Liu, may I know what crime I have committed?”
Zhao Mingcheng, who was chained up, had a dark expression on his face. He was extremely angry.
He Yunbai, who was over fifty years old, asked in fear,""Milord, this lowly official has always been loyal to Milord. Why did Milord capture the two of us?”
Liu Xuan sat at the head of the table and sipped his tea gently." The two of you have already been captured. Are you not going to tell me?”
He Yunbai and Zhao Mingcheng looked at each other.
"I don't know what to say!" Zhao Mingcheng said coldly.”
"What about you? Official He."
He Yunbai met Liu Xuan's bottomless eyes and his heart trembled slightly.
"This official…I don't know either."
"You don't know?" Liu Xuan's lips curled into a cold smile.
He stood up and walked to the table. He threw the account book that Li Si had taken from Zhao Mingcheng's house and the letters in front of them.
Bada!
Zhao Mingcheng's pupils constricted when he saw the thing on the ground. His body trembled slightly, and even his ice-cold expression melted at this moment.
"This…"
Although He Yunbai didn't know what it was, he still panicked when he saw Zhao Mingcheng's change.
Liu Xuan slowly walked to the two of them." Officer Zhao, don't these things look familiar?"”
Zhao Mingcheng gritted his teeth and said nothing, but a thin layer of sweat had already appeared on his forehead.
Liu Xuan saw that Zhao Mingcheng did not say anything, so he turned to look at He Yunbai." Chief registrar He, you might not know this, but this Officer Zhao has a problem. He would record all the people who have private dealings with him. This account book and letter mentioned you!”
Thud!
When He Yunbai heard Liu Xuan's words, he fell to the ground and couldn't help but scream in anger,""Zhao Mingcheng! Have you gone crazy from visiting brothels? How could he leave such a thing behind?”
Zhao Mingcheng ignored He Yunbai and stared at Liu Xuan. He asked unhurriedly,""Sir, did you capture us today to silence us?”
"Kill him to silence him?"
He Yunbai stopped shouting and stared at Liu Xuan, not knowing what to do.
Liu Xuan raised his eyebrows, turned around, and returned to his seat.
"Why do you say that, Officer Zhao?"
Zhao Mingcheng pursed his dry lips and said in a deep voice,""Sir, do you think that I don't know anything about Wang Youcai's family after knowing him for so many years?”
Without waiting for Liu Xuan's reply, he said in one breath,""Others may not know how much Wang Youcai has, but this lowly official knows very well. Four granaries, grain and fodder are no less than fifty thousand dan, but Lord only reported ten thousand dan!”
"Moreover, the Wang Clan doesn't only have three shops, but more than ten. There are also gold, silver, jewelry, and so on. How can there be only so many? However, the difference between this and the number reported by Milord is too great.”
Pa! Pa! Pa...
Liu Xuan clapped his hands gently." Official Zhao is indeed smart. That's right, the rest have been detained by me.”
He Yunbai had already collapsed to the ground. He really wanted to bury his head in the ground!
Because what did he just hear?
He had actually heard such a major event!!
He still wanted to live!
If he was discovered to be colluding with the Wang family, he could still beg for mercy and offer his loyalty. However, this path had been cut off by Zhao Mingcheng!
They were forcing Liu Xuan to kill them!!
Zhao Mingcheng snorted coldly." You flatter me, sir. I only guessed it just now!”
Since he had just guessed it, it meant that no one else knew. In other words, he did not leave himself a way out.
Lu Buwei couldn't help but roll his eyes in the group chat." Did a donkey kick this guy's head?!"”
Qin Hui: " Sigh, how can such a person live until now?”
Wei Zhongxian said,"Our family's bathroom needs such honest people!"”
"Hehehe…"
Liu Xuan was speechless. Was Zhao Mingcheng not afraid that he would kill him?
Liu Xuan could not help but ask directly.
"Since you guessed it, why did you say it? Aren't you afraid that I'll really kill you to silence you?”
Zhao Mingcheng straightened his back and sneered." Why should I be afraid? Daren should be very clear about how powerful the five surnames and seven Wangs are. As an official in the imperial court, the way of the king is to have both sides win. Provoking these aristocratic families will only cause you to die without a burial place.”
"I don't think that Milord will choose to seek his own destruction!”
"Today, Milord captured me and revealed the account book. I think Milord wants to intimidate me first. When I beg for mercy, Milord will show mercy. Because Milord knows that I have some friendship with the Wang family's branch family head, Wang Zhao. As long as I plead for Milord at the Wang family, the Wang family will not blame Milord!”
"In this way, Sir will obtain Wang Youcai's family property and will not be blamed by the Wang family. This will also make me feel grateful. It can be said to be killing three birds with one stone…"
Had this guy's brain gone silly from visiting brothels?
There were actually so many scenes?
Seeing that Zhao Mingcheng wanted to continue, Liu Xuan no longer had the interest to waste time with him." Alright, shut up! I thought you were a smart person, but now, I think too highly of you!”
Swoosh!
As soon as Liu Xuan finished speaking, Qin Ruishi, who was wearing a black suit, suddenly appeared in front of Zhao Mingcheng.
Zhao Mingcheng's expression changed when he saw Qin Ruishi's murderous aura. He did not expect his trump card to be useless in front of Liu Xuan.
"Liu Xuan, what do you want? Do you want to die?"
Liu Xuan said indifferently," You think too highly of yourself. I never thought of letting you walk out alive when I captured you today. As for the Wang family, since I dared to rob Wang Youcai's house, I never thought that I would be afraid of them!”
Hearing this, Zhao Mingcheng finally panicked." No, you can't kill me…" If you kill me, the Wang Clan will not let you off…Let me go, let me go…"
Unfortunately, his threats were useless against Liu Xuan and Qin Ruishi.
Puff!
Under Zhao Mingcheng's incredulous gaze, a shimmering dagger pierced through his heart.
Seeing Zhao Mingcheng lying on the ground with his eyes wide open, He Yunbai peed in his pants.
"Sir, I didn't hear anything. Sir, please spare me. I will definitely follow your lead in the future. Please don't kill me…"
He Yunbai kept begging for mercy. Liu Xuan smiled faintly." I wanted to spare your life, but if you want to blame someone, blame yourself for hearing things you shouldn't have!”
Puchi!
Qin Ruishi's dagger pierced He Yunbai's chest again.
He Yunbai and Zhao Mingcheng were lying in a pool of blood.
Liu Xuan heaved a sigh of relief. Now, there were no more people who knew about it. The Wang family's family, maids, servants, and so on had all been sent to other provinces and counties. The Ministry of Justice would not find out about this.
Really, the rating votes are really bleak. Upgrading is not a problem, please...
