Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space

Chapter 1905 Solving the Termit

As he spoke, Wan Conghe waved his hand, and the officers and soldiers immediately stepped forward to suppress the rioting people.

When the people saw so many people coming from Chen Changli's side, they immediately became weaker and worried about being implicated. They ran away in a swarm before the officers and soldiers could get close to them.

Seeing the people running away, Wan Conghe did not chase them, but looked at Chen Changli: "Sir, what should we do with these people?"

"Go back first."

The people had already dispersed. With Wan Conghe around, they wouldn't come to cause trouble for a while, so Chen Changli and his companions returned to Lingyin's yard first.

In the room, Wan Shufang was bandaging Chen Changli, while Wan Conghe was reporting what happened in Yongzhou City.

"My Lord, I was out on business at the time and didn't know what happened in Yongzhou City. I only know that His Majesty hurriedly sent someone to find you and said that you were in trouble."

Hearing this, Chen Changli's face darkened: "I didn't expect that His Majesty would know so quickly. These people came prepared and slaughtered the restaurant in order to frame us and put us to death."

"Who on earth can't tolerate us like this?" Wan Shufang echoed, turning her wrist and tying the cloth bandaged with the wound into a big bow.

"Your Majesty has sent people to assist the Duke. I will stay here for the time being to protect you and your wife."

Hearing this, Chen Changli and Wan Shufang had no expression on their faces, but Lingyin's eyes changed slightly. It was not until this moment that she realized Chen Changli's position in the court.

Then he felt fortunate that he had followed the right person. With Chen Changli's ability and status, there was more hope of solving this matter.

Lingyin was so absorbed in her thoughts that she was stunned for a moment. It was only when Chen Changli spoke that she was brought back to her senses.

"Wan Conghe, have someone notify the people of Qingcheng to gather at Wumen in an hour. I will tell them the truth about the bloodbath in the restaurant."

"Yes, sir." Wan Conghe obeyed the order and left. The door opened and closed again, and Wan Shufang also packed up the medicine box.

She looked at Lingyin and said softly, "Lingyin, you are tired today, go and rest first. Chen Changli and I will take care of the rest. He can't escape."

Lingyin knew that the "he" Wan Shufang was referring to was the prefect. After a moment of silence, she suddenly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Wan Shufang and Chen Changli.

"Lingyin, on behalf of those who died innocently at the hands of the governor, would like to thank you, sir, and madam!"

With a thud, her forehead hit the ground hard, and instantly turned red. Wan Shufang quickly reached out and helped her up: "What are you doing? It is our responsibility to eliminate harm for the people."

"From today on, there will be no more such pests in Qingcheng."

A breeze blew outside, and several people's faces were full of determination, and relief that the matter was settled.

Chen Changli stood up, left the house and went to the woodshed, where the people who had just been captured were imprisoned. He asked for some things from Wan Shufang's space.

After trying every possible means, I finally managed to pry their mouths open.

"My lord...my lord, please spare my life."

"I'm telling you, I'm telling you, we were indeed being instructed by someone..." The man's voice was weak, and he gasped for breath after saying only this one sentence. Chen Changli did not urge him and waited for him quietly.

"That person paid us a large sum of money to frame you and put you to death, but he was wearing a mask and we really didn't know who it was."

As he spoke, the man crawled to Chen Changli's feet, stretched out his bloody hand, and tried to pull his clothes, but was kicked away by Chen Changli.

Chen Changli glanced at the prefect with a cold gaze. Seeing that those people had confessed, the prefect knew that he could no longer hide it, so he lowered his head.

"I plead guilty..."

He had just witnessed with his own eyes the way Chen Changli interrogated people, which was extremely cruel. The situation was hopeless for them, so instead of resisting stubbornly, they might as well confess the truth.

"In that case, we'll talk it over when we meet the people later."

As he spoke, Chen Changli winked at Wan Conghe, who immediately understood what he meant. He picked up the group of people and forced them out.

His notification was very thorough and almost all the people in Qingcheng received it. Although they were afraid of Chen Changli, driven by curiosity, those people still came to the Meridian Gate one after another.

An hour later, there was a commotion at the Meridian Gate.

Chen Changli and Wan Shufang appeared with the prefect and the few people they had just captured. As soon as they appeared, the people around them instantly quieted down, and he pushed people to the center.

"Everyone, I asked you to come here today to tell you the truth about the restaurant tragedy." Following the sound of the wind, Chen Changli's clear voice reached the ears of every citizen.

But when the people looked at him, their eyes were still full of contempt.

"What truth? Aren't you the murderer? Are you finally going to confess your guilt? Or do you want to rely on your numbers to confuse right and wrong?"

I don’t know who shouted, but the anger of the people was instantly ignited.

There was a commotion all around again, with everyone cursing and complaining about Chen Changli.

Seeing this, Wan Conghe and the people he brought with him walked over, walked past the people, and stood in front of Chen Changli and Wan Shufang.

The officers and soldiers surrounded Wan Shufang and Chen Changli with weapons, but pointed their weapons at the civilians, which made the civilians even angrier. Although they didn't dare to get close, they kept complaining.

"Do you still have justice? You are relying on your numbers to force confessions and let those people die in vain."

"Officials protect each other, and they don't want ordinary people to live."

The people were making so much noise that it was giving people a headache. Chen Changli rubbed his brows and no longer had the heart to deal with them. His eyes turned cold.

"Shut up!"

His voice was frighteningly cold, and he emanated a fierce aura of oppression. Everyone around him instantly fell silent. Finally, it became quiet, and Chen Changli kicked the governor.

"Speak, tell everyone the truth."

After saying this, he took a step back and asked the governor to confess to the people.

The people's eyes also fell on the seriously injured governor. They saw that the governor could not stop shaking, his eyes were evasive, and he said tremblingly: "I..."

He closed his eyes and a foul smell came from his body again, as if he couldn't control his incontinence again. The people showed a look of disgust and retreated in a swarm.

"I am guilty!" The governor gritted his teeth and almost yelled, then he breathed a sigh of relief and slowed down his voice: "They were not the murderers of the restaurant tragedy. I colluded with others and deliberately framed Chen Changli and Wan Shufang."

"I took advantage of my position to abduct women and kill civilians. I did all kinds of evil."

Sensing Chen Changli's cold gaze behind him, the prefect had no choice but to admit his crime to everyone.

When he finished speaking, everyone was stunned and stood there in a daze. It seemed that they had not expected that the restaurant incident, such a big case, was actually just a trick by the prefect to frame Chen Changli and Wan Shufang!

The old woman who had previously caused a scene at the government office now rushed to the front, picked up the eggs in the basket and started smashing them.

"You bastard, you want to kill so many people for your own benefit. Why don't you just die and give my son back to me."
