Chapter 408
For a moment, all kinds of dialects were flying around and Ji Yunqing couldn't hear clearly.
But this did not waste time. She soon saw a team of guards receiving orders and running to the house of Goushengzi that Widow Zhang had pointed out.
She asked Widow Zhang to stand aside and said, "Wait here. If you didn't cheat anyone, the money is yours. If you cheated anyone..."
The sword in his hand instantly gained a sense of presence.
Ever since she pulled out the knife in public, she has been holding it tightly in her hand. This is a sense of security.
Widow Zhang stood there anxiously.
Others also spoke up: "I saw it too, they went to Gou Shengzi's house."
"There are other people hiding in Goushengzi's home, they are from other villages"
"Yes, I thought Gousheng's mother was short of money to marry Goushengzi off, so she planned to attract customers to make money. Now that I think about it, it doesn't seem like that."
Gou Sheng Niang was furious: "You are the one soliciting customers, your whole family solicits customers"
Ji Yunqing was annoyed when he heard this.
She pointed to the first villager in the crowd who said that there was a person from another village in Goushengzi's family.
"Come out and explain yourself carefully."
As he spoke, he took out the second hundred taels and waved it in front of everyone.
There is actually one!
The man who was hit by the surprise quickly squeezed to the front and said flatteringly: "Madam, there are five people in total. I think they have a good relationship with the leader of the ancestral hall. Maybe they know each other."
"very good"
Ji Yunqing nodded and pointed to another location: "Stand over there, and I'll pay you if you're accurate."
That person was a little worried. Would this person refuse to give it to him?
You know, that was a full one hundred taels of silver!
The villagers also began to doubt.
The crowd began to murmur, "Is this a lie?"
"Can you really give me so much silver for free?"
Goushengzi's mother was the loudest one.
"This must be a bluff! It's fake! It's a lie!"
"Who would give so much money?"
"They are just liars!"
"How can such a useless woman really have so much money?"
As she spoke, Gousheng's mother had already squeezed forward from the back, spitting all over Ji Yunqing's face and pointing her black finger at Ji Yunqing's head.
The hairpin on her head was very beautiful, and Gousheng's mother had wanted it for a long time.
"Swish"
Ji Yunqing swung the big knife in his hand.
Gou Sheng Niang immediately screamed: "Ah, my hand!"
She dodged in time, but a piece of flesh was still cut off from her hand.
But the damn woman with the knife looked regretful: "How did you dodge it? Aren't you very capable? If you were a little bit closer, you wouldn't have to worry about the pain in your hand."
She smiled cruelly at everyone: "Because this arm is gone."
The villagers were so frightened that they dared not make a sound, only Gousheng's mother was still howling.
This woman with a knife really cuts.
What if she cuts someone again...
Ji Yunqing sneered: "Shut up!"
"How dare you be unruly in front of me? Do you know who I am?"
What status?
The villagers didn't know that King Lie, who was standing behind and watching the woman holding the knife with great vigor, couldn't help but show a look of watching a show to his brother.
"Brother, isn't Concubine Ji too powerful? She's like a tigress."
He approached King Zhao and said in a servile manner, "A woman like this is not respectful or virtuous at all. How could you like her?"
"Look, you can't keep an eye on someone and he's causing trouble for you outside. You even dare to take action and are ready to use your power to overpower him. Tsk tsk."
"Aren't you afraid that a woman like this will ride on your head?"
"I don't think she showed you much respect on the way there. She was sharp-tongued."
"Women should be more gentle, considerate and caring. People like her are as hard as men, tomboys."
"See, she's going to cause you big trouble sooner or later, so you better make plans early."
After saying so much, King Zhao's expression remained the same.
He ignored King Lie.
King Lie wanted to make some more provocations when he heard Ji Yunqing speaking loudly in front of him.
"I am related to the current prince. You are so ignorant. I will just say a few words casually..."
"I am Prince Lie's sister-in-law!"
"My sister is very favored in the palace. She likes my nephew the most. When the time comes, I will tell her that the child is lost in your Liujia Village, and she will tell the prince... Humph!"
"besides……"
Hearing these words, Prince Lie looked with complicated eyes at the woman holding the knife in front of him, who so blatantly said that she was a relative of Prince Lie's palace.
King Lie: “…”
What sister-in-law?
How dare you say that?
Upon hearing about the existence of such a high-level person as the prince, the old village chief fainted out of fright.
He was moved aside by several guards.
After asking all the questions and making sure there was nothing left out, Ji Yunqing immediately took his men to Gou Shengzi's house.
King Lie was still muttering to express his dissatisfaction, speaking ill of Ji Yunqing to King Zhao and teaching him how to teach his daring concubine a lesson, when King Zhao suddenly left.
Just leave one sentence: "Follow"
Soon, the group arrived at Gou Shengzi's house. However, there was nothing there.
The guard who came to check earlier reported: "My lord, there is nothing here!"
No?
Ji Yunqing immediately said: "Go look nearby"
The guard looked at King Zhao, and only took action when he saw him nod.
Suddenly, Ji Yunqing vaguely heard shouting.
She concentrated and listened carefully, but saw that King Zhao was still taking action.
King Lie followed closely behind him and walked directly in one direction.
Ji Yunqing remembered that these two people had received elite education since childhood, so they might have excellent hearing, after all, they knew martial arts.
She quickly followed.
When he saw the two of them, he saw Zeng Cheng in a disheveled state, with his snow-white skin exposed from the torn clothes. He was hiding beside King Lie and shivering pitifully.
Opposite him were two strong men, who were lying on the ground, and it was obvious that they had just been knocked down.
Ji Yunqing's eyes lit up: "Two"
Then he was disappointed: "Only two?"
Zeng Cheng was so angry that he glared at Ji Yunqing and asked, "Only two?"
Isn't two enough?
Ji Yunqing was disappointed: "There are five people in total, and there are only two..."
Then Ruirui has at least three people on her side, how can she feel at ease?
King Zhao stared at Zeng Cheng with his sharp eyes: "Where are you from? How did you meet these two people?"
Zeng Cheng quickly hid beside King Lie, looking terrified: "I, I don't know, I was looking for something, and I just encountered it like that."
He was so angry that he took the heavy child over with the intention of selling him.
She knew something was wrong there, a good place to sell people.
As a result, those people saw that she was pretty and actually said they wanted to sell her together.
Then two of them, one from the village and one from an outsider, actually fell in love with him.
Find a way to get her outside so that he has a chance to escape.
Fortunately, those people were stupid, and fortunately she was okay.
King Zhao stared at the person: "Where is Ruirui?"
Zeng Cheng was puzzled: "I don't know what you are talking about? What Ruirui? Ruirui is in trouble? What happened? I have been outside the whole time?"
