The Killer's Cleansing Manual

Three days later, carrier pigeons landed on the window sills of the Princess's Mansion and Yang Palace.

Xihe took the note from his leg, unfolded it carefully, and glanced at it briefly, and saw that it was full of complaints.

Huang Yue had indeed stolen the banknotes, and used the money to live lavishly in brothels, spending lavishly on dancers.

[Huang Yue was disrespectful to His Highness, discussing His Highness with the men traveling with him late at night. Damn it!]

Xihe leaned back in his chair and looked at it twice, frowning, thinking that the person didn't seem like such a... woman with indecent behavior. Is it true that you can't judge a person by his appearance?

She was just thinking about whether to let Yueliu come back first when another pigeon fluttered down.

Since messages are being sent one after another, it must be something urgent.

Xihe unfolded the book and curled the corners of his lips after reading it - the whereabouts of the missing official salt have been found?

Unexpectedly, these two people accidentally encountered such a big event.

The secret letter said that Huang Yue wanted to go to Xiongfeng Village alone. It would take three days for the carrier pigeon to fly here, which means that Huang Yue had been lurking in Xiongfeng Village for at least three days.

She dared to go deep into the wolf's den with only one person. Either she was confident or she had other intentions. However, I didn't know the details and couldn't judge for the time being. Therefore, I couldn't decide whether to ask General Xu to pick her up.

Fortunately, Yueliu's third letter arrived in the afternoon, briefly describing what had happened.

Yihongyuan snatched the secret letter, left Jialiang City overnight, ambushed the yamen runners on the way, and entered Xiongfeng Village disguised as yamen runners.

Xihe understood this person's plan after reading it, and felt a little surprised - she was indeed not an ordinary person. Such meticulous thinking and bold actions were definitely not the courage that ordinary people could have.

In that case, it might be a good idea to go pick her up.

"Come here, tell General Xu to come."

-

Lin Shanjuan and his friend lived a very comfortable life in Xiongfeng Village. They spent the whole day doing three things: eating, sleeping and listening to music.

She had already inquired and found out that it would take at least a month to get here from the capital.

If County Magistrate Wang really sent someone to ask for a new secret letter, it would take two months to get it back and forth.

Although it is quite comfortable to live here for two months, it is inevitable that complications will arise over time, so I am afraid I have to think of some other ideas and find a way to trick the salt out as soon as possible.

Otherwise, if the county magistrate of Jialiangcheng sent someone else, she and Bai Shu would be exposed on the spot.

But she didn't expect that as soon as she had this idea, the opportunity came to her door!

One morning, Bai Shu came running back from outside:

"Boss! This is terrible! These guys have captured a woman. They say she's been hanging around for a while and is a spy! Should we go check it out?"

Careful work?

Lin Shanjuan was stunned, thinking that maybe County Magistrate Wang had sent someone again?

"Don't go yet. If we appear too active, it will inevitably arouse suspicion. It's better to have a legitimate reason..."

Bai Shu nodded. The two of them sat in the room trying to come up with a good excuse when a runner knocked on the door.

"Master Chen, Master Zhang, our boss has captured a female spy. I'm here to ask you to go and see if she's the thief who stole the letter."

It was like a pillow being given to someone when they were sleepy. The two of them smiled at each other, clapped their hands, and got up to leave. Now, even if they left in a hurry, they had an excuse.

The letter-stealing thief has been caught, why don’t you hurry up?

The three of them rushed to the main hall in a hurry, and Zhao Biao, who had stopped them at the foot of the mountain, was looking at the woman in an obscene manner.

Lin Shanjuan quickly confronted Bai Shu and hinted him to stop. This kind of mean guy really made people want to beat him up, and she was afraid that she couldn't control herself.

"Brother Zhao!" Bai Shu hurriedly called him. Hearing the voice, Yue Liu turned around and took a look. Seeing that the two men had completely become one with the bandits, he was shocked.

This Huang Yue is really not a pushover! Not only does he hang around in brothels, but he's also on friendly terms with bandits!

She had been waiting outside for a month, and there was no movement after the two men went in. She suspected that their identities were discovered and they were arrested.

In order not to delay important matters, she revealed some flaws and allowed herself to be captured on purpose, intending to take this opportunity to sneak into Xiongfeng Village and conduct a thorough investigation.

More than half a month ago, she had received a letter from Xihe, saying that General Xu had been sent to pick her up. He would probably arrive in the next few days. By then, with the help of both inside and outside forces, this small Xiongfeng Village would not be able to hold her back.

But now these two people are not only standing here, but also become a group of thieves. It can be seen that she still underestimated Huang Yue.

Zhao Biao walked over and said, "Brother is coming over here too. First, check if this woman is the one who stole the letter."

Bai Shu pretended to be cautious and walked around to the front of Yue Liu.

Lin Shanjuan took a look and was sure that she had never seen this person before, but the one who was sneaking around the gate of Xiongfeng Village must have been eyeing the salt, so he must not be a good person.

She was just hesitating whether to hint to Bai Shu to point out that it was the right person, when she saw Yue Liu nodding slightly at her in a very suggestive manner.

?

"Brother Zhang, is that right?"

Lin Shanjuan nodded obscurely, and Bai Shu's desire to perform was immediately aroused. He slapped his thigh, indignant:

"You, a female thief, really dare to come here! Thanks to Brother Gong's meticulous thinking, he caught you! Tell me! Where is the secret letter!"

Village Chief Gong happened to come over and heard this. He was delighted by the praise, and even happier because the person he caught was indeed a female thief who stole the letter.

The sooner we find the secret letter, the sooner we can transport the salt. This is a matter of making a fortune, who wouldn't be enthusiastic?

"Brother Zhang! Is this the female thief?" he shouted as he ran.

Bai Shu turned around and clasped his fists: "That's right, Brother Gong, I saw it clearly, it was definitely her!"

Lin Shanjuan maintained his mute character and kept whining, which made Yue Liu full of suspicion.

How come I haven’t seen the mute for a month?

Since you want me to identify you, I'd like to see what your plan is.

Village Chief Gong looked her up and down. Yue Liu had a cold demeanor and said nothing.

"My dear, if you tell me the truth, I can give you a quick death. Otherwise..."

Yue Liu remained unmoved and remained silent.

Seeing this, Bai Shu reminded him in time and pulled Village Chief Gong aside:

"Brother Gong, I think this thief must be your enemy. He's a tough nut to crack. If he's pushed too far, he might commit suicide. It's better to hand him over to us brothers. We have many ways to interrogate criminals!"

I have to say, when he looks ferocious, his expression is really ferocious.

Lin Shanjuan was too embarrassed to look and turned away.

As soon as the village chief heard this, he agreed. Yamen runners interrogating prisoners—that was exactly what they were supposed to do! Besides, these two guys were definitely not fake. They'd been living with me for a month, drinking and listening to music with me every day. I couldn't be more relieved to leave the job to them!

"Alright! Let's do as Brother Zhang says! Send this woman to Brother Zhang's room, and bring all the torture instruments with her as well!"
