Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Second Master Su was related to the Xiao Family Army of Mo City. The Xiao Family Army and the Wan Family Army had a feud. The New Zhizhou happily wrote a secret report in the government office.
Initially, he had framed the escorts for breaking into the prison and killing the Wan Family Army, but the appearance of the Xiao Family Army explained everything.
Thinking about how he would be promoted soon and even get Second Master Su’s a.s.sets, the new Zhizhou was delighted.
“Su Hanxuan, Su Hanxuan, you’re my benefactor! If 1 kill you, I’ll be able to soar. Beautiful, wonderful.”
“Beautiful?”
Su Qing appeared behind him without anyone noticing. The New Zhizhou was so frightened that he wanted to shout, but the other party pressed his acupoints. In the flickering lights, he saw a pair of eyes as cold as a cold lake. If she looked at him, it was as if he had received a death warrant from the King of h.e.l.l.
“Using my father as a stepping stone?”
The new Zhizhou couldn’t make a sound and wanted to run out to find someone to save him. Su Qing kicked him to the ground, and her voice was cold. The Zhizhou trembled as he watched her take out a dagger and chop off his fingers.
The pain of the severed finger made Zhizhou feel like he was dying. Only then did he realize that he had provoked someone he should not have provoked.
When he caught Su Hanxuan, he strengthened the guards of the government office. Ten steps, one sentry post, five steps, one sentry post. He thought it was foolproof, but he didn’t expect it to be useless against this evil G.o.d. Now, he knew that it was too late to be afraid.
The New Zhizhou fainted several times from the pain, but he was woken up by Su Qing’s needles, torturing him awake.
He widened his eyes in horror as he looked at Su Qing, who seemed possessed by a demon. He wanted to beg for mercy but couldn’t make a sound. He could only beg with his eyes, but it was useless. He had met Su Qing, who had a heart of stone.
Su Qing looked coldly at his body. She was kind to people but did not need to be kind to animals. After torturing the New Zhizhou, Su Qing lost her patience and ended his life with a slash.
Su Qing picked up the secret report the Zhizhou had just written and lit it with a candle. She watched expressionlessly as the secret letter burned. She threw the burning secret information on Zhizhou’s bed curtain. The flames quickly lit up, and Su Qing turned around and walked out of the Zhizhou Mansion.
Her knockout powder had knocked out everyone in the residence. All those who helped evil should die.
After burning the magistrate, Su Qing rushed to the prison to meet with Yang Zhi. Yang Zhi used the knockout powder given by Su Qing to knock out the jailer and rescued the butler and the bodyguards locked in the prison. The two bodyguards who could not bear the heavy punishment and confessed to Mo City felt they had no face to see Yang Zhi. Once freed from their shackles, they wanted to commit suicide to apologize.
Yang Zhi stopped him. After all, they were brothers who had experienced life and death together. He really couldn’t bear to see them die. The torture in the prison was unbearable. Not everyone had steel bones, so he didn’t blame them. However, he couldn’t let them stay in the bodyguard agency anymore.
Su Qing had given them medicine that erased their memories. They no longer remembered anything from the past. This fulfilled Uncle Yang’s unforgiving heart and could also ensure the safety of Mo City.
The remaining bodyguards would rather die than submit. They had suffered torture that ordinary people could not endure. Their legs were broken on the upper clamp rod, and they could not walk. Their bodies were covered in whip wounds that were unbearable to look at.
Su Qing had given them the Golden Jade Bone Repairing Pill and the red medicine to treat external injuries. Since she was known as a divine doctor, her medical skills were naturally superb. She was not afraid of exposing her medical skills.
When she found the housekeeper, Su Qing’s eyes were red. This old man was covered in wounds and dying on dirty dry gra.s.s. He heard from the bodyguards that the old housekeeper would rather die than submit. He refused to admit that he had robbed the prison and would not admit that he had killed the Wan family army to save the child. He not only wanted to protect the old master but also the entire Su family.
The old butler was loyal, and Su Qing admired him.
She treated the old butler’s external injuries and gave him a bone-setting pill and a pill to treat internal injuries before the old butler woke up.
Su Qing was dressed as a man and had her face covered. The old butler did not recognize her and looked at her warily.
“What are you doing?”
“Old butler, I’m here to save you.”
“This is your scheme to frame the Su family. 1 won’t leave. If you want to kill me, do as you please.”
Not only was the butler not overjoyed, but he also cursed and hid in the depths of the prison.
He thought that this was another scheme the New Zhizhou had come up with to frame the Su family, so he refused to leave with Su Qing no matter what.
“Old butler, I’m Su Qing. Father asked me to save you.”
Su Qing had seen the old butler’s loyalty with her own eyes and admired him even more. She quickly revealed her ident.i.ty. When the old butler heard it was the young lady, he immediately burst into tears.
“Miss, this old servant is in the wrong. 1 didn’t protect the Su family’s property well.”
“You’ve done very well.”
Su Qing comforted the crying old butler,”
“I’ll take you to see Father.”
To confuse the imperial court and the Wan Family Army, Su Qing rescued the old butler and the bodyguards and released everyone in prison.
Not only that, but they also opened the granary of the local government. Many disaster victims in Luo City were sleeping on the streets and begging for a living. The food was thrown into the place where the disaster victims gathered. Yang Zhi shouted,
“The good man has given out food. Everyone, quickly receive it!”
The eyes of the victims suffering from hunger and cold instantly lit up when they heard that there was food. Word spread, and soon, hundreds of people gathered to fight for food. The people in the city also came to fight for food when they heard the news.
When the city guards saw the chaos, they ran over to beat and scold the disaster victims. Su Qing and Yang Zhi took advantage of the situation and threw out a knockout powder to knock out all the city guards. They then went to the city gate to knock out a team of soldiers guarding it and opened it to let the disaster victims out.
Yang Zhi had prepared a carriage. After leaving the city gate, the injured bodyguards and the old butler got into the carriage and went in the opposite direction of Mo City.
This confused the imperial court and made them think the jailbreaker had run south. After leaving the crowd, Su Qing and the others entered the forest and followed the minor road to Mo City.
Su Qing of Luo City had rescued the old butler and the bodyguards, and Ji Shuisheng had fought with the Wan Family Army for the first time in Mo City.
There were more than a hundred soldiers from the Wan Clan Army in Mo City. They were here to investigate the excellent killing machine and did not know that the county magistrate of Mo City had escaped with his seal.
After entering the city, the Wan Family Army went straight to the government office. Coincidentally, Xing Ruhai was working in the government office. When he heard the hurried footsteps, he immediately welcomed them.
Are you the Zhizhou of Mo City?”
The Wan Family Army’s lieutenant misunderstood. When he saw Xing Ruhai walk out of the inner hall, he thought he was the Mo City Zhizhou.
Xing Ruhai’s mind spun rapidly. This meant the imperial court still did not know that Zhizhou had escaped with his seal. Xing Ruhai’s mind flashed, but his face was calm and composed. He nodded naturally and replied,
“Yes, I am the Zhizhou of Mo City. You are?”
“We’re here on General Wan’s orders to investigate the matter of the great killing weapon. Zhizhou, please tell us everything you know and explain the situation in detail.”
After confirming that Xing Ruhai was the Zhizhou of Mo City, the lieutenant arrogantly named General Wan and said he was here to investigate the great killing weapon.
Xing Ruhai had heard of the great killing weapon and knew that Su Qing and the others had captured the spy and used the spy to pa.s.s false information to Prime Minister Wan.
Prime Minister Wan did not believe him. Otherwise, he would not have sent the army to investigate..
