Chapter 1684 It’s this woman!
Yan Ruyu interrupted coldly.
"Come on, stop pretending to be pitiful. What don't you know? You are a smart businessman, but if you don't have this kind of brains, you won't be able to get to where you are today."
"I just thought it was a quick and easy way to make money, so I just took it regardless of whether it was right or wrong."
Yan Ruyu gestured, and Linlang searched his body for the purse.
"The work in West City and outside the city is enough for you to live comfortably. If there were no palace, you wouldn't be able to do the business in these two places."
"I don't ask you to be grateful and repay me, but you knew that this action was harmful to the palace, and you still did it anyway. You are an ungrateful villain who is greedy for money."
Gu Luo lowered his head, unable to refute.
"Tell me, what kind of woman is the one who hired you?"
Gu Luo whispered and described the woman's appearance. Yan Ruyu looked out the window at the woman that Li Wanglin had just pointed out.
It was her.
The abbot also recognized her: "She is not..."
Yan Ruyu nodded. This was the woman whom the abbot tried to persuade to become a good woman in Lanxing Pavilion last night. In the end, she betrayed the abbot and he was almost beaten.
It is indeed the work of Lanxing Pavilion.
However, why did Lanxing Pavilion target Wangfu? Did they know her identity?
Ordinarily not.
Qi Dongqiang said: "I'll go."
She turned and went downstairs.
The area in front of the governor's mansion was in chaos.
Just as everyone was shouting, music sounded.
The music was accompanied by the sound of fast food vendors: "Tofu brain, tea eggs, millet porridge..."
Yan Ruyu: "..."
The abbot pursed his lips, almost laughed, and muttered quietly: "Don't say it, it makes me want to eat it."
Then the voice of Governor Cao was heard coughing: "Everyone, listen to me!"
He held a loud speaker and shouted very loudly three times, and the people quieted down.
"Indeed, someone was caught stealing materials. I have interrogated him and he signed his name. This person stole the materials because he was instructed by someone else. He did not come here to intentionally sabotage the road construction project."
"Although he was instructed by someone, he did it, and I will not condone it. There were strict orders before, and we must execute what the orders say."
"As for the death penalty, I will re-examine him to see if he has committed any other capital crimes. If so, I will say the same thing again: no leniency!"
"But if not," he changed the subject, "this dynasty has laws, and I will punish him according to the laws."
"As everyone has said, if we forcibly kill him and execute him on the spot, it would be really unfair. The crime of theft is not punishable by death. When the prince and princess discussed with me and issued a strict order, they did not mention the word death."
"Think about it, killing him is easy, but where is the law? How can the court's laws be fair and just?"
"Furthermore, if someone with ill intentions finds fault with this and puts the blame on the prince and princess, and the court learns about it, wouldn't that cause trouble for the palace?"
"Everyone knows that it was not easy for the prince to be exiled here, but the prince and princess still care about Youcheng and work hard for us all the time. What we can do is to protect the palace and prevent it from becoming a target for others."
Cui Chong immediately said, "Your Excellency is right. The prince and princess have always been kind. If they easily call for fighting and killing, they definitely have no good intentions."
Someone in the crowd said, "That's right, I felt something was wrong just now. We shouldn't be fooled by someone with ulterior motives."
Governor Cao struck while the iron was hot: "Everyone is right. Please rest assured that I will never let criminals off lightly, nor will I be led away by others at will. After the trial of this person, I will post a public notice. Please wait and see."
Everyone shouted "OK" a few times, and the people arranged by Governor Cao echoed in the crowd. The situation calmed down and many people left.
Yan Ruyu nodded, thinking that Governor Cao was really a good official. Now he was fully capable and could handle all kinds of situations with ease.
The crowd began to disperse, and Yan Ruyu said, "Go and catch the person you like."
At the command, those who could get off went down, and those who couldn't wait at the window, watching and cheering.
Soon, the man in purple, the man in brown, and two young guys were all captured.
A few people were still lamenting that they hadn't had enough fun yet and it ended so quickly. However, since they got a share of the reward money, it wasn't a loss.
Just as he was about to go back, he was captured. He went upstairs and saw Gu Luo, then looked at Yan Ruyu. He was so scared that his legs went limp, knowing that he was exposed.
Qi Dongqiang held the sword, leaned against the tree with his eyes slightly narrowed, waiting for Lan Cha to come over.
Lan Cha looked back as she walked, and suddenly heard Qi Dongqiang ask, "Where are you going?"
Lan Cha was startled and turned around to see her. At first glance, he thought she was a man, dressed in tight clothes, with his hair tied up and holding a sword. But when he looked more closely, he realized she was a pretty woman.
Lan Cha looked around and saw no one else. She asked softly, "Miss, are you talking to me?"
"What else?" Qi Dongqiang asked, "Come with me, or should I drag you away?"
Lan Cha was surprised: "Where are we going?"
Her eyes moved and she burst into laughter: "If you were a young master, I would definitely go with you, but you are not, what can I do if I go with you?"
As she spoke, she moved closer to Qi Dongqiang and swung the handkerchief in her hand under the tip of Qi Dongqiang's nose.
A faint fragrance fills the air.
Qi Dongqiang sneered and grabbed her wrist.
"Girl, what do you mean?" Lan Cha blinked, "You don't... like women, do you? But I'm not..."
Qi Dongqiang stared at her: "Are you still pretending? You bribed those people, didn't you? What do you want to do? You dare to go against the palace and instigate the people. You are really brave."
Lan Cha's expression changed slightly, and then her smile deepened: "What do you mean, young lady? I don't understand."
She counted secretly in her mind. The handkerchief in her hand was sprayed with aphrodisiac. A big man would be knocked out in no time if he smelled it, let alone such a slender girl.
She didn't need to say anything more, just wait patiently for a while.
Qi Dongqiang saw through her thoughts and increased the strength in her hands: "It seems that you want me to drag you away."
He left as soon as he said he would, and Lan Cha was dragged to stagger to catch up.
She counted silently in her mind, one, two, three...
But Qi Dongqiang never fell to the ground.
"Strange?" Qi Dongqiang looked back at her. "To tell you the truth, I was weak and sickly when I was young, and I took countless medicines. The princess saved me and gave me a magic medicine. I am no longer afraid of drugs or anything like that."
Lan Cha's eyes suddenly widened: "You... know?"
"How come you don't know about such a crude trick?" Qi Dongqiang sneered, raising his other hand, "Let me show you my tricks."
The mist dispersed, and Lan Cha felt dizzy: "Your...methods are not that brilliant."
What? Just throw it in someone's face.
When he was unconscious, he heard Qi Dongqiang say, "I don't even bother to use any tricks."
Blue Tea: “…”
While unconscious, he was dragged all the way to Yan Ruyu.
Everyone gathered around to look, and the abbot also came forward to confirm it from close range.
Yes, that's her.
As soon as she saw him, she cried to him about her tragic fate. He was moved with kindness and advised her to leave and live a good life, but she ended up biting him back.
It’s this woman!
