Chapter 043

"Tell me, who ordered you two to kidnap me?" Su Yujin asked in a deep voice, "What did you say just now that you have not succeeded before?"

Shen Cang and Meng Dahai looked at each other again, but both remained silent.

"Qing Kui." Su Yujin shouted, "Hit me!"

"Use as much force as you can, I will bear the burden if you beat him to death! At worst, it's just that these two people have evil intentions, and we resist with all our strength. I'm sure the county magistrate won't say anything by then."

"No matter what the county magistrate wants to do, we still have people in the capital, and we are not afraid of him as a mere county magistrate!"

Su Yujin meant this last sentence to scare someone.

Originally, she didn't want to use the second master's name too much to show off, but Zhang Huaihua was previously ordered to put chin beans in Su Ji's haggis soup, and now someone was instigating these two people to kidnap her. It was obvious that she He is already regarded as a thorn in others' side.

If she doesn't make others afraid, she will live in danger.

Want to be beaten?

And he was beaten by this extremely strong Qing Kui.

Su Yujin has a backer in the capital. Isn't that bigger than the county magistrate...

Shen Cang and Meng Dahai quickly screened out a few important pieces of information. Their expressions suddenly changed, and they hurriedly said, "Let's explain, let's say..."

Even personally, you and I explained everything clearly to Su Yujin.

The reason why I was robbed before was because I wanted to extort money. Once I wanted to pretend that I would vomit blood after eating, and another time I wanted to pretend that the food was unclean and contained bugs.

But these two times, the former was because someone was choking, and the latter was because Zhang Huaihua was parading in the street. Seeing that Su Yujin had medical skills and was very alert, they did not dare to act rashly and had to give up.

As for the person who instigated them behind the scenes...

It was a person wearing a cloak and a conical hat. His face could not be seen clearly, but he was not tall and his voice seemed to be that of a woman.

The woman gave them twenty taels of silver and asked them to kidnap Su Yujin and send her away far away. It would be best to find a place to sell it. The money from the sale would belong to Shen Cang and Meng Dahai.

Lin Lin finally managed to get it, and if he could get it, he could get at least fifty or sixty taels of silver.

So they responded without any hesitation, and after observing for a long time, they finally waited until tonight to take action.

Su Yujin frowned when he heard this.

A woman whose appearance I can’t see clearly…

This look is the same as that of the person who ordered Zhang Huaihua.

This woman had so much hatred against her that she wanted to ruin her business and even sell her.

While Su Yujin was thinking, Ai Cao and others arrived with the yamen officials.

It was already dark at night. After briefly asking about the whole incident, the government officials took Shen Cang and Meng Dahai back to the government office and waited for the county magistrate to come and hear the case the next day.

He also explained that Su Yujin would need to go to the Yamen to provide testimony.

Su Yujin naturally agreed wholeheartedly.

After all the busy work, Shuanggui Lane returned to calm, and Su Yujin and others went back.

Qing Kui was frightened today, and Su Yujin told Shuang Ye to stay with her at night and take a good rest for a few days without having to do any work.

After I returned home, I took a hot bath to relax my tense nerves.

Qing Kui was frightened, and she was no exception.

After all, it happened right in front of her eyes, and the other party's real target was also her. It was extremely scary to think about it.

Seeing this, Ai Cao and Liu's mother boiled milk for Su Yujin so that she would feel better after drinking it.

The next day, the county government came to inform Su Yujin and others.

After asking about the circumstances of what happened last night, and confirming that it was correct, Su Yujin and others, as well as Shen Cang and Meng Dahai, all signed a pledge.

But when asked about the identity of the woman wearing a cloak and a conical hat, the answer was that she didn't know anything except that she roughly knew she was a woman.

County Prime Minister Ye Yongwang frowned, and his voice was calm and intimidating, "You really don't know?"

"I don't dare to lie, I really don't know."

When they arrived at the county government office, Shen Cang was so frightened that he was shaking like chaff. Meng Dahai on the side was nodding like a chicken pecking at rice, "Sir, I really don't know who she is..."

"Then the money she gave you is still there?" Ye Yongwang asked.

"I spent some of it, but the rest is still there, hidden under the water tank at my home." Shen Cang didn't dare to hide it.

Ye Yong looked at the man and went to look for it as Shen Cang said. Sure enough, he found an oil paper bag with more than ten taels of silver wrapped in it.

Like Zhang Huaihua's silver, these silvers are all broken pieces of silver. There is no difference. But if we talk about something special, these pieces of silver are much cleaner than the ordinary pieces of silver. Even the pitted marks on the silver pieces are They were all washed very thoroughly and looked shiny and white.

Ye Yongwang looked at the silver and fell into deep thought.

The case of Shen Cang and Meng Dahai was very clear. They were instigated by others and tried to traffic people. They were first beaten a hundred times, then sent to prison, and will be exiled three thousand miles northwest by next spring.

If the labor service is just to dig mines and build river embankments nearby, then being exiled for three thousand miles means being exiled to an extremely remote place to do hard labor and working until death, which is a far more severe punishment than labor service.

As for the person behind the scenes, Ye Yongwang stated that he would do his best to find out and give an explanation to Su Yujin and An Ding of Qinghe County.

Qinghe County is adjacent to the capital, and the annual civil service assessment is extremely strict. Ye Yongwang does not want Qinghe County to have such a hidden danger of causing trouble, which will frighten the people of the entire Qinghe County.

But it does take time to find a person who is in charge.

Especially in this era when technology and information are not developed.

Su Yujin understood this truth and only thanked Ye Yongwang, "Master Ye is a good official who serves the people wholeheartedly. I believe that Master Ye will be able to find this vicious person."

It can be regarded as a high hat for Ye Yongwang.

"Don't worry, Miss Su, I will definitely make the decision for you."

Ye Yongwang paused for a moment and said, "I just heard from Shen Cang and Meng Dahai that Miss Su's family has a good family background, but is there anyone in her family who is also an official in Beijing?"

Is this to get to the bottom of her?

How much thought should be put into this matter?

Su Yujin hesitated slightly, "There are indeed relatives who are officials in the capital."

"So that's it." Ye Yongwang asked tentatively again, "I wonder what Miss Su should call that sir? Does he have any official position?"

"Um……"

Su Yujin thought about it again, "Come to think of it, I'll call him my second cousin. My cousin works in the Ministry of Household Affairs. However, my cousin is always cautious and doesn't like to be public. He rarely discloses his identity to the outside world."

"It's just that the two thieves were stubborn and refused to tell the truth that day. I had no choice but to use my cousin's name. I hope my cousin will find out later and don't blame me."
