Su Qing’s blade tip was already stuck to Master Lu’s eyes. If she gently pushed it in, he would no longer be able to see the sun in the sky. The world would only be dark.

“I’ll talk, I’ll talk. Please give me a quick death.”

The immense fear made Master Lu surrender. The woman in front of him was too vicious. She was even more brutal than their executioner.

He only wished for a quick death to escape this woman’s demonic claws.

“Speak.”

Su Qing didn’t move the tip of the knife away. She continued to press it against his eyes and urged him coldly.

“My name is Wan Yuxiang, the youngest son of the current country’s father.”

Wan Yuxiang was like a deflated ball. After saying this, he was paralyzed.

He knew that he could not escape death today.

Although he was called the youngest son, he was Wan Guo zhang’s illegitimate son. Only because his mother was a brothel woman who was not presentable, he was raised outside the manor by Prime Minister Wan.

Wan Yuxiang’s name was not on the family tree of the Wan family. The sons of the Wan family did not recognize this younger brother either. His identity was very awkward.

However, because his mother was good at coaxing Prime Minister Wan, even his son benefited from it. Although Prime Minister Wan didn’t include him in the family tree, he still nurtured him carefully and let him manage the accounts. It could be considered as allowing him to return to the Wan family. “Is this account book Wan Shengchang’s corrupt silver? The first word is the city’s name, and the last is the official’s surname?”

When Ji Shuisheng heard that his surname was Wan, he wished he could cut him into pieces. He suppressed his anger and grabbed Wan Yuxiang’s hair to let him see the account book.

“Yes.”

Wan Yuxiang nodded his head in despair. The excruciating pain that felt like his heart was being dug out made him wish he was dead. In any case, he hated his father for not giving him status. He did not need to be tortured before he died for them.

“Tell the emperor about the account book.”

Ji Shuisheng wanted to use Wan Yuxiang to pull Wan Shengchang down. The amount of corruption was huge, and the amount of money he embezzled in a year was several times more than the national treasury.

Wan Yuxiang revealed a bitter smile,

” It’s useless even if I say it. I’m an illegitimate child. My father won’t admit it.” At that time, his father would abandon his pawn to protect the chariot and kill him, and the current Emperor would not dare to do anything to the father. The Emperor was a puppet who had to listen to his father. Even if this account book could not reach the Emperor’s hands, it might be intercepted by his father’s people.

If he knew that he was the one who leaked the account book and reported him, not only would his father kill him, but he would also kill his mother.

Ji Shuisheng frowned as he looked at Wan Yuxiang in front of him. Wan Shengchang would not care about the life of an illegitimate child.

Ji Shuisheng suddenly thought of a good idea. This Wan Yuxiang couldn’t be killed. He was a good chess piece so he would give the Emperor a big gift! It would depend on whether he could make good use of this matter.

“Is there any way to bring him out?”

Ji Shuisheng lowered his voice and asked Su Qing. Su Qing nodded. “Sure.”

Ji Shuisheng nodded gratefully at Su Qing. She was always the one who helped him solve his big problems.

Su Qing asked Xiao Qi to make a disguise pill and a bewitching powder that could make people obedient. She handed the medicine to Ji Shuisheng. “Feed it to him.”

Ji Shuisheng did not hesitate at all. He took the medicine and pinched Wan Yuxiang’s mouth open.

Wan Yuxiang didn’t know what medicine this was. The pill he had just taken made him wish he was dead. It was as if tens of thousands of ants had bitten his entire body. He did not dare to take any more of that woman’s pills.

However, he was like a fish on a meat plate that could only be slaughtered and could not resist.

Ji Shuisheng stuffed the pill into his mouth and roughly raised his chin. Wan Yuxiang wanted to use his tongue and head to push the pill out, but the pill melted in his mouth. Ji Shuisheng held his mouth tightly and could not spit it out.

Wan Yuxiang, who had taken medicine, twisted and rolled on the ground. He was in so much pain that he wanted to die. Soon, his face changed. His smooth skin seemed to have been burned by someone. Scars crisscrossed, and he looked completely different.

Su Qing gave Wan Yuxiang another antidote to relieve the pain that made Wan Yuxiang wish he were dead. He lay on the ground drenched, his eyes turning from cunning to dull, like a soulless puppet.

“I’ll go out and find a set of clothes for him to change into. You cover him up and let the girls out of the cave. They should have been drugged. Water can cure them.”

Wan Yuxiang’s clothes had to be destroyed. Before Su Qing left, she instructed Ji Shuisheng to release those girls.

Initially, she wanted to give Yang Zhi a favor, but after knowing Wan Yuxiang’s true identity, she couldn’t let Yang Zhi save him. Otherwise, she would be harming him.

Ji Shuisheng understood what Su Qing meant. When he saw Wan Yuxiang standing obediently beside him like an obedient child, Ji Shuisheng told him to stand behind the rockery and not move. Wan Yuxiang did not move.

Ji Shuisheng cleaned up the traces of fighting in the courtyard and threw the broken swords into the dry well. He also threw in two large stones to prevent anyone from seeing these things.

After doing all this, Ji Shuisheng walked into the cave.

The moment he entered, he smelled the stench of feces and urine. Those girls were tied up like dogs with iron chains. Miss Luan’s feet were also tied up with iron chains. The scarf on her head fell off in her struggle. Her hair was messy, and she was frightened.

The other girls also had messy hair, and their eyes were filled with despair and helplessness. Their eyes were swollen from crying, and they were terrified that they were like little lambs falling into a pack of wolves. They had already given up struggling.

These girls were thrown onto the ground, with two urinal buckets on one side and food on the other. They were in a worse state than livestock.

Seeing the fake mountain rock open and Ji Shuisheng walk in with his face covered, the girls hugged each other in fear and looked at him in horror.

The knockout powder on Luan Hong’s body had yet to wear off. Her limbs were weak, and she could not run even if she wanted to.

She leaned against the rock wall of the rockery. The girl who was doted on by her parents and feared nothing was also frightened when she was caught in this dark and smelly place. Seeing Ji Shuisheng walk into the cave, she said with a trembling voice,

” My uncle is Second Master Su from Qingzhou’s cloth shop. He can pay you however much you want. Don’t hurt me.”

Luan Hong was still very smart. She didn’t say that her father was Zhizhou. She was afraid these people wouldn’t dare to ask for money and would even kill her to silence her. She wanted to mention her uncle’s name. They wouldn’t do anything to her if she said her uncle’s name! The kidnappers only wanted money.

Ji Shuisheng was stunned when he heard Second Master Su’s name. He didn’t expect the Zhizhou and Second Master Su to be brothers-in-law. Then he had to save Miss Luan.

He was glad that he came in with a mask. Otherwise, he would be unable to hide his appearance if Lady Luan saw him. He deliberately ignored Luan Hong and said to the girls,

“Don’t be afraid. I’m here to save you. The person who captured you is a dignitary of the current dynasty. Don’t mention this matter when you go back. Otherwise, it will bring death to your family.”

Wan Yuxiang and the account book had gone missing. Wan Shengchang would use all means to find the account book. If these girls leaked it, they would be in trouble.

Whether they knew about Wan Yuxiang and the account book, Wan Shengchang would not let them live.

Luan Hong was stunned when she heard Ji Shuisheng’s words. Why did the nobles want to capture them?

After Ji Shuisheng finished speaking, he took the Luan knife and cut off the iron chains tied to the girls’ feet. Luan Hong saw that he wanted to let them go when he helped her cut off the iron chains, so she wanted to thank him.

“Benefactor, what’s your name? I’ll go back and tell father, and he’ll repay you..”
