Transformed into a vicious stepmother, invincible

interesting.

After going around in circles, it turns out that Mr. Wan was the one who opened the door and let the thief into the house.

But the person let into the house was not only a thief, but also an executioner.

It seems that the person Wan Chen mentioned who always wanted him dead is his father?

"No more?" Bai Sui'an asked.

Weng Lai shook his head: "It's gone, it's really gone."

"You haven't told me what you use those medicinal herbs for." Bai Sui'an said slowly.

"What else can I do? Of course someone is sick and needs to take medicine."

Bai Sui'an said with a forced smile: "There are quite a few sick people."

"Yes."

"Isn't it really used to develop some kind of poison that could cause someone to accidentally become paralyzed and die?"

Weng Lai's pupils shrank. How could he still pretend? The other party had already told him the effects of the medicine!

It's obvious that he knows everything!

"When do we start?" Bai Sui'an asked.

"I do not know."

Weng Lai was trembling all over and was extremely panicked.

Even if he said nothing now, he would probably be treated as a traitor when he returned.

Who on earth leaked so much information!

"Every time you say you don't know, every time I ask you, what can you say? How can I trust you?"

Bai Sui'an took out a dagger from somewhere, with the tip of the blade facing down.

Starting from the top, he slowly moved down, finally stopping between the other person's legs.

She asked, "Try to see if my blade is sharp?"

"Don't!" Weng Lai blocked his mouth with his hands and said in panic, "I really don't know! I've told you everything!"

His body and voice were shaking, and the fox mask with a half-smile on it made him look like a ghost from the underworld that was taking his life and could kill him at any time.

The owner of the mask was in a playful mood and the tip of the knife stabbed into the back of Weng Lai's hand, causing only a small wound.

Bai Sui'an paused, tilted his head, and asked, "Is there really no other news? I want to know more."

The human skin is always tough and fragile. A small cut will start to bleed, and even a large cut will slowly heal.

The blade moved down another inch.

Weng Lai grimaced in pain. He felt that if he didn't say what the other party wanted to hear, Bai Sui'an might pierce his hands at any time and cut off his vitals!

"Brother, big brother! Stop, I'm talking!" Weng Lai begged for mercy again.

Bai Sui'an did not pull out the dagger, leaving it soaked in fresh blood.

"Then tell me."

"I really don't know the location! The poison is the same as you said. The time to act is on the Queen Mother's birthday. I will lead the troops straight to the palace and support His Highness to ascend the throne."

"You haven't found the princess yet, how can you let her take the throne?" Bai Sui'an asked.

"I..." Weng Lai looked into the eyes behind the mask and hesitated for a moment.

After Bai Sui'an thrust the dagger down a little further, he said in a cold sweat, "With Prince Chang here, he will temporarily sit on the throne and wait for Your Highness to return..."

"Then we will eliminate all future troubles." Bai Sui'an responded naturally.

"What?" Weng Lai asked in confusion.

Bai Sui'an pulled out the dagger, wiped it clean on Weng Lai's nightgown, and said, "Who told you that Gong Chang was a loyal minister?"

Weng Lai forgot the pain and said dully, "He is a prince, the late king's brother. How could he..."

"Gong Sui'an is my wife. She told me about the past."

Bai Sui'an is very comfortable with this identity.

As for the fact that she was her own wife, since she was now dressed as a man, she could speak freely without fear of being exposed.

Her natural way of speaking left Weng Lai confused, as if someone who had been rushing forward suddenly lost his direction.

"Don't lie to me..." Weng Lai murmured.

Bai Sui'an: "If you lied to me, I would have stayed with you for so long. This is what Gong Sui'an told me. Believe it or not."

Zhuying came here specially to protect the prince's wife under Ye Lingche's orders.

He was lying on a distant rooftop, watching the princess unilaterally beating up the thieves from afar. He had no idea what they were talking about, and he was so bored that he had to look around to see if there was any emergency.

After waiting for a whole night, my efforts paid off and I finally saw a group of officials rushing towards this side.

Zhuying stood up and was about to go down to stop the officers.

A man in white clothes jumped into Wanchen's yard and flew towards Bai Sui'an.

Zhuying: Oh no, our house was robbed!

He jumped off the roof, and before he landed on the ground, he saw the man in white pulling Bai Sui'an up.

That’s right, pull it up.

Zhuying was confused. This...

Bai Sui'an stood up and saw Baili Mo wearing a gray wolf mask. The two smiled at each other.

Baili Mo: "The officials are here."

"Okay, just tie this guy up."

Bai Sui'an found the hemp rope he had prepared in advance, wrapped it around Weng Lai's hand, and whispered, "Think carefully about what I said when you go back."

Weng Lai fell into deep self-doubt and let Bai Sui'an tie him up. He didn't want to make a fuss like he did just now.

Tonight's conversation was full of ups and downs. Originally, Weng Lai was very happy to know the news about his own prince.

But when he thought about His Highness saying that he and Prince Chang were not on good terms, Weng Lai felt completely exhausted. He had actually betrayed His Highness unintentionally...

Baili Mo noticed something strange about Weng Lai, but he didn't say anything.

As Baili Mo said, the officers arrived soon, followed by Wan Chen and his two guards.

"Mr. An!" Wan Chen strode over and glanced at the two extra people.

Just by looking at the mask on Baili Mo's face, one could tell that she and Bai Sui'an were in cahoots, so Wan Chen set his sights on Weng Lai.

Weng Lai sat against the door frame, holding his injured hand, with his head down and no words.

His face was bruised and swollen, it seemed that Bai Sui'an was really cruel.

The officers looked at each other, waiting for the leader to give orders.

One of them was Zhang Hao, who watched Bai Suian announce the results yesterday.

"Boss, he is the one who announced the results yesterday. He actually caught the thief!" Zhang Hao pointed at Bai Sui'an.

The leader's face was stern, and he growled, "Who told you that was a thief?"

Baili Mo raised his eyebrows, immediately understood what the other party meant, and was about to attack.

Bai Sui'an reached out and gently pushed Weng Lai's head: "Brother, tell me what you did wrong."

Weng Lai suddenly looked up and glanced at Bai Sui'an in confusion before he realized belatedly:

"Ah, I stole the Night Pearl and the medicinal herbs from Mr. Liu's house before. Today I came here to steal the account books of the Wan family. I happened to be caught by this knight. I admit my defeat."

"Really? Words are not enough. Please hand over the stolen goods."

The leader Su Gaoyu narrowed his eyes and looked at Weng Lai. An indescribable sense of oppression spread in the air.

Weng Lai leaned his shoulder against the door frame, reluctantly stood up, exhaled, and said helplessly: "Isn't the Night Pearl in the county magistrate's house? If you want me to get it, then I'll take you there."

Su Gaoyu shouted angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about! How dare you wrongly accuse an imperial official!!"
