Fu Jichang felt that the thing in his hand was hot, but he was reluctant to throw it away, so he held it pitifully, waiting for Ji Xiaobei to come and save him.

Ji Xiaobei snatched the stun gun and glared at him.

Fu Jichang accepted the cold stare with conviction, not daring to say another word, waiting for Ji Xiaobei to speak.

Ji Xiaobei looked down at the person on the ground and found that he had fainted.

Fu Jichang: I really didn’t mean it!

Ji Xiaobei looked with murderous eyes at the man in black who was leaning against the pillar and shivering.

He is not afraid of death, he is afraid of not being able to live or die!

Just now my arms were numb, tingling, sour and painful. The muscles all over my body felt like they were being bitten by a swarm of insects. It was so uncomfortable.

All the pores on his body opened up and all the hair on his body stood up.

A small umbrella was also erected in the wide pants.

All the muscles in his body were stiff, as if he was fixed there, looking at the thing in Ji Xiaobei's hand in horror and helplessness.

Ji Xiaobei slowly raised the stun gun again.

"Brave man, please show mercy. I'll tell you, I'll tell you..." The man spoke mechanically with his lips colliding.

Ji Xiaobei's face suddenly fell.

I haven't heard the title of "strong man" again since she successfully lost weight.

She gnashed her teeth in anger.

The man in black struggled and knelt down: "Brave man, brave man, spare my life!"

Fu Jichang knew that Ji Xiaobei hated these two words the most.

Afraid that she would knock the person in front of her unconscious.

"Just tell me everything you know and I'll spare your life!"

Fu Jichang pulled Ji Xiaobei back.

Seeing that the time was right and that victory was in sight, Ji Xiaobei gritted his teeth and swallowed his anger.

"I was just following orders. My superior is Taoist Wuji. He said that an important person came to Xishan and asked us to kidnap him. If he resisted, we would kill him and destroy his body. I didn't expect that he had any martial arts skills and was easily captured..."

The man in black said tremblingly.

"Do you know who you kidnapped?" Fu Jichang's heart tightened. Who is so bold as to kill the emperor's bloodline?

"I don't know. I don't know..."

……

Ji Xiaobei and Fu Jichang looked at each other.

The person lying on the ground slowly woke up.

When he saw what was in Ji Xiaobei's hand, he was so scared that he fainted.

Ji Xiaobei quickly put the stun gun into his sleeve.

"Who is Taoist Wuji and where is he now?" Ji Xiaobei asked.

"In the gallery, in the gallery..."

Ji Xiaobei's body trembled. Could it be that Taoist Wuji was the skinny old man he met in the art gallery?

After some questioning, Ji Xiaobei confirmed that it was him.

The people who kidnapped Guoguo and Zhengzheng were Taoist Wuji's men.

During the conversation, Ji Xiaobei discovered that this person didn't know what happened in the gallery.

She turned her gaze to the person on the ground.

Now she wanted him to wake up.

Ji Xiaobei picked up a bucket of water on the table and poured it at the man.

The person on the ground coughed a few times and woke up.

"You were also involved in the incident in which Taoist Wuji kidnapped two children in the art gallery, right?" Ji Xiaobei stepped on the man's waist and went straight to the point.

The man shuddered, his eyes full of fear.

"No, I was not involved... That person is already dead..."

……

Half an hour later, Ji Xiaobei and Fu Jichang came out of the prison.

It was already late at night, and Fu Jichang said, "Let's go to the courtyard of my government office and have a rest!"

Ji Xiaobei looked up at the sky.

"I still have something to say to you!" Fu Jichang said. He was afraid that Ji Xiaobei would leave immediately, so he hurriedly added, "About the man in black..."

If he went back now, he might wake up everyone in the family, so Ji Xiaobei followed him into the backyard of the government office.

The lights in the black tower have been turned on.

Fu Jichang's room was simply furnished with a table, a bed, and a bookshelf.

There is also a faint scent of agarwood.

When Ji Xiaobei smelled the scent, her face suddenly felt hot and she touched her face with the back of her hand.

Mm, hot!

Pooh!dog man!

She wanted to run away.

But, when I looked up at the man, he was as calm as water and was pouring tea!

Why are you panicking?

Fu Jichang's heart had been pounding.

But, who is he?

After fighting in the officialdom for many years, hiding one's emotions is a piece of cake.

"Sit down! Drink some water!" Fu Jichang's voice was light, but his hands were so nervous that he could hardly hold the porcelain pot steadily.

Ji Xiaobei sat down on the chair at the door.

The chair creaked.

"Hey, my goodness! Your job as a judge is too shabby. The place you live in is even simpler than the temple... and this chair is in such bad condition..."

Ji Xiaobei wanted to say that the place where he lived was a place of peace and tranquility.

The words came to his mouth, but he stopped.

These four words are somewhat provocative... and inappropriate.

Fu Jichang burst out laughing: "My annual salary is only 200 taels of silver, what can I afford?"

Ji Xiaobei cursed in his heart:

Damn it, it’s just such a small amount of money, no wonder so many high-ranking officials are looking for ways to make money!

"So, there are high-ranking officials and local officials colluding with each other, taking bribes, selling private salt, and making false profits. The Great Northern Dynasty is unstable. The young prince left the capital and was assassinated. The people behind him are extremely powerful..."

As Fu Jichang spoke, his mood became heavy.

"Who would dare to assassinate the young prince? He is the flesh and blood of the emperor. It must be an important official of the court who has a grudge against him. You said that the young prince has been studying and has not participated in the disputes between his brothers. He should have no hatred against the officials. The emperor cannot kill his own son. The only possibility is that it is a murder between brothers!"

After hearing what she said, Fu Jichang hurriedly looked towards the door and whispered, "Don't say things like this again in the future. It will cause big trouble."

Ji Xiaobei stuck out his tongue and nodded.

She just wanted to talk to Fu Jichang alone, she wouldn't be stupid enough to say such things in public.

There are many cases in history of brothers killing each other and fathers and sons killing each other for the throne.

Hey!

Pitiful!

Being in that position, you can hardly protect yourself!

"Do we need to report everything the man in black just said?" Ji Xiaobei asked.

"What I'm worried about now is this matter. If I report it, it will alert the enemy. Taoist Wuji and his gang will definitely hide deeper. Is there any way to prevent them from telling the truth?"

Fu Jichang looked at Ji Xiaobei for help.

"Cut off their tongues?" Ji Xiaobei blurted out.

"Absolutely not. This will arouse suspicion... Is there any medicine that can make them forget those things in the past..."

Fu Jichang felt that Ji Xiaobei was omnipotent and would definitely find a way.

Without her rare stuff, it would be impossible to interrogate Taoist Wuji.

"Yes, but we have to ask Mrs. Huang for help!" Ji Xiaobei's long eyelashes fluttered, leaving a shadow on her eyelids.

The whole person looks hazy and somewhat alluring.
