Chapter 119 The Princess Asked Us to Come
Soon, two people with black cloths on their heads and tied up were pulled up. The two secret guards behind them kicked them hard on the knees, forcing them to hit the ground, and they gasped in pain.
As the black cloth on his head was removed, he found himself back in the original place. Looking at Lin Mowan who was sitting in the upper seat, the arrogant smile on his face froze instantly.
One of them couldn't help but mutter subconsciously, "Why, why is it you? Aren't we sending you to the authorities?"
Lin Mowan lazily leaned on the table, holding her chin with one hand, smiling sweetly: "Why? Rather than settling it privately, you seem to want to be sent to the authorities?"
Logically speaking, they would definitely want to settle this matter privately. Ordinary people would be in great pain if they did not die if they met an official. They would either plead guilty or pay money. The latter would definitely not be less, and basically it would cost them the food and clothing of their entire family for the rest of their lives.
After all, there were not so many "Guo Yinli" at that time, and not every official was incorruptible, especially in a place like this where bandits were rampant.
Lin Mowan would never believe that the bandits here could be so rampant if they didn't secretly collude with the local officials and divide the spoils behind the scenes.
Therefore, in this situation, they still hope to be sent to the authorities. The only explanation is that someone has made a reservation on their behalf in advance, so even if they are sent in, they will not receive any punishment.
Lin Mowan knew very well that no matter who the person who greeted her was, it must be directed at her.
After hearing Lin Mowan's question, the two of them turned pale and lowered their heads. One of them thought for a moment, then raised his eyes again and looked at Lin Mowan with a cowardly and fawning look: "Girl, we really know we were wrong. We drank a little wine tonight and got dizzy for a while, so... that's why..."
As he spoke, he lowered his head in shame and seriousness, as if he was truly repentant. Lin Mowan still didn't say anything, but just watched his performance quietly.
After a long time, the man pleaded again: "Girl, please forgive me and let us go. We have an old mother at home waiting for us to return."
Seeing that Lin Mowan was indifferent, they simply came up with this excuse to gain sympathy. However, if Lin Mowan had not discovered it in advance, she was not as weak as they thought, otherwise they would not know who was begging for mercy.
Lin Mowan smiled, but the coldness in her eyes seemed to seep out of her eyes. She didn't beat around the bush and said bluntly: "I can let you go, but you have to tell me who is here."
When the two heard this, a trace of surprise and panic flashed across their faces at the same time. They looked at each other in shock, and the other one hurriedly said, "Girl, you really misunderstood. No one ordered us to do this. We were just confused for a moment. We are really sorry..."
Lin Mowan still smiled and said calmly: "Is that so? That's no problem."
After she finished speaking, the two people kneeling on the ground breathed a sigh of relief. They thought they had escaped, but the next moment, Lin Mowan slowly spoke again: "Drag them away and castrate them."
When the two heard this, their faces changed again. The secret guards beside them were dragging them, and their instinctive desire to survive made them panic instantly. They screamed and begged for mercy, asking to be let go, but unfortunately Lin Mowan didn't intend to pay attention to them.
Only after the two men had been dragged several meters away along with the rope did one of them shout loudly, "I say! I say! It was the princess who asked us to come! It was the princess!"
As expected, it was Gongshu Tingyue. Lin Mowan's eyes unconsciously became a little colder. Although she had guessed it in her heart a long time ago, she still felt disgusted when she heard them say it in person.
As the man shouted this, the guards who were dragging him stopped immediately. The two turned pale with fear, and beads of sweat rolled down their cheeks. Lin Mowan just looked at them calmly, and waited until they came to their senses before she spoke faintly: "Drag them away and castrate them, and don't stop their bleeding."
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw that the face that had just returned to normal immediately turned pale again with fright. This time, no matter how they shouted, even if they said that they could help Lin Mowan correct Gong Shu Tingyue, Lin Mowan did not ask them to stop.
The two were dragged away, and the sounds of shouting for mercy became farther and farther away until they could no longer be heard. Only then did Lin Mowan elegantly pick up the tea that was at just the right temperature beside her and take a sip.
Yuzhi, who was standing by, was a little confused when she saw this. It was not that she thought Lin Mowan's approach was wrong, but she was wondering why Lin Mowan would give up the opportunity to let those two people come forward to correct Gong Shu Tingyue.
As she thought about it, she naturally asked. Lin Mowan just smiled and said, "She has her cousin, the emperor, to protect her. Even if ten people come forward to point out her fault, it is likely that she will be put in solitary confinement for a few days."
What's the point of this? It's just a punishment that doesn't hurt. Instead, it will make Gongshu Yanyu start to pay attention to her, and even start to be on guard against her because she reported Gongshu Tingyue.
But now she also needs a character of an ignorant girl who is weak, unable to take care of herself, and knows nothing, and can only wait for a savior hero to come and save her.
What could be more likely to make people let down their guard than a harmless little white rabbit like this?
The rain stopped in the second half of the night, and the secret guards worked quickly. The next morning, the two men were handed over to the local government office. However, the difference was that both men were thrown directly in front of the government office before daybreak.
They deliberately searched the token of the Princess's Mansion from the two men and threw it aside. When the county magistrate came over after hearing the noise, it was already dawn and people came to watch from all directions.
The road was still wet after the rain, and there was a lot of water on the road. Mixed with the blood from their genitals, it dyed a large area of the floor in front of the government office red.
The county magistrate was shocked by the tragic scene and wanted to ask someone to deal with it casually. However, when he saw the token of the Princess's Mansion lying quietly beside the two people, he was so frightened that he almost fainted. He quickly asked people to carry the two unconscious people into the county government office and called a doctor.
Of course, the final result was that one person died and one was injured. One of them was too seriously injured to be saved, and the other was still hanging on. The county magistrate quickly reported the matter to Gongshu Tingyue in secret.
These messages were sent back by secret guards who mixed in with the crowd, pretending to be onlookers, and secretly monitored the county magistrate's every move.
Lin Mowan curled her lips in satisfaction. She certainly did this not just to vent her anger and give a warning, but more importantly, it would most likely awaken Gong Shu Tingyue's memory of Jiang Youxi.
She smiled, but suddenly felt a little lost. After all, she couldn't see Gongshu Tingyue's crazy face with her own eyes.
The weather was very nice after the rain. The warm sun set into the yard early, wetting the treetops and leaf tips which were still dripping with water. Occasionally, the chirping of sparrows could be heard.
Lin Mowan sat in the yard, picked up the kitten in her arms, kissed it in a good mood, and whispered: "You can get a dried fish as a reward today."
Recently it has become too fat and doesn't like to move. Fearing that this would affect its health, Lin Mowan began to control its food intake.
