An eight-year-old kid emptied his scumbag father's warehouse and followed his grandparents into

The day after the medicine disappeared,

Early in the morning, Heizi came running over and said, "A man died in the back. He was the prisoner that County Lieutenant Yan and his men were escorting."

The Jing family members were a little stunned after hearing this. Those escorted prisoners could only stay in their own team and it was impossible for them to walk to the front in the middle of the journey. That couldn't be the person who stole the medicine. How could he die at this time!

"Lao Bei, please help me take a look. That man was still alive and well yesterday and didn't look like he was sick. How come he died after waking up from a sleep?" The person who ran over was one of County Magistrate Yan's men. They were the ones who were taking care of that group of people.

Xiaobei naturally didn't dare to refuse since the officer had given the order. He didn't want to refuse at this time either. He was just worried that he had no reason to run back. It would be best for him to go and see what was going on.

The deceased was a man in his thirties. His mouth and nose were clean, there was no sign of vomiting, and his skin was very fair. The prisoner sleeping next to him said that he didn't hear a single groan from him in the middle of the night. He just passed away quietly.

However, looking at his frowning face when he died, he seemed to be in some pain before dying, but there was no sign of poisoning.

"This man should have had a heart disease, but if he hadn't been subjected to any major stimulation, the heart disease would not have flared up." Xiao Bei's words were just a guess. After all, nothing could be seen on the surface. He was definitely not poisoned by their fitness pills. And the only person who could have made someone follow him thousands of miles to be assassinated on the way to exile was probably no one else except those who were dealing with the General's Mansion.

After returning, Xiaobei told everyone his guess truthfully, which disappointed everyone. They thought they would soon find the culprit! Unexpectedly, it was just an accident.

Later, after an investigation by County Lieutenant Yan, it was revealed that the man had indeed argued with several prisoners after dinner the previous night, and that some physical contact had occurred. He had sustained no injuries at the time, but his face was flushed with anger and he was speechless. Therefore, the officers tacitly accepted Xiaobei's diagnosis, concluding the case as a result of a relapse of his heart condition caused by the shock, and similarly hastily buried him.

After waiting for another two days, there was still nothing unusual in the crowd. Not only did no one die from poisoning, but there was no one showing any symptoms of poisoning.

"Could it be that they didn't even try this 'good' medicine after stealing it back?"

It's really strange. They all acted so realistically. There was also Jing Yongcheng, a man who was about to die but stood up after sleeping for just a few days. This shows that the effect of the medicine is extremely obvious. How could someone resist such temptation and steal the medicine and hide it away!

What they didn't expect was that this bottle of medicine played a key role in their subsequent revenge, but they were kept in the dark from beginning to end.

……

At the end of November,

We entered Chenzhou City around noon.

While queuing to enter the city, a major event occurred that shocked the entire Chenzhou city, and we were forced to stay here for another two days.

They walked and stopped here and there. Those who knew them thought they were going into exile, while those who didn't thought they were traveling. Anyway, when they felt too tired, they always had a reason to rest for a day or two.

"Going into the city, going into the city, everyone line up."

"All prisoners must line up in two rows, and must not fight over anything. Follow the officers in front of you and enter the city one after another."

"All civilians entering or leaving should stay back and wait until the criminals enter the city before passing through."

The officers swung their whips in front of the onlookers with great power and majesty, full of official authority, and their shouts rose one after another.

The prisoners lined up in order and slowly moved forward close to the right city gate. Master Liu walked in front, and the Jing family prisoners escorted him closely behind. There was a small distance between each group of prisoners.

The crowds of onlookers in Chenzhou far outnumbered the prisoners; such a bustle might not happen once in years. Most of the people were discussing what crime the prisoners had committed and where they had been exiled.

There are also many lustful men who specifically look at the women in the crowd, commenting on who is tall, who is plump, who is fairer and prettier. Even the little girl is speculated by them about how beautiful she will be when she grows up, which is so charming.

Being stared at like monkeys by these people, Jing Chunxi and his family couldn't help but quicken their pace. With so many people and so much noise, it was too easy for something to happen in this narrow doorway.

Scarface had already entered the city gate and stood there counting his number. Seeing that everyone else had gone in, he led the troops a hundred feet ahead before shouting loudly from the front: "All prisoners, stay where you are. Wait until everyone else behind you enters the city before continuing forward."

Since we are a group, it is natural to wait a while.

The other officers escorting them were on high alert as they saw too many people were watching. They all held their sticks horizontally to prevent the crowd from getting close, and some of them cracked their whips to drive away the onlookers. They also prohibited the prisoners from talking to the people, and would whip anyone who disobeyed their orders. Although they were few in number, their intimidation was great.

Normally, they would arrive in the city or at the post station quite late, sometimes checking in after dark. But today, they arrived in Chenzhou City at noon, which is why so many people gathered to watch.

The prisoners had long been accustomed to the curious, sympathetic, pitiful, and contemptuous looks of the people; most of them no longer cared, their natural arrogance having long been polished to a shine. They were born to be seen, and a few more glances wouldn't make them any less proud.

But the officials and the police were troubled by the outspokenness of some people, and their words were truly infuriating. Fearing that a careless prisoner might cause a conflict with the crowd and lead to bloodshed, they simply wanted to enter the city as quickly as possible and accommodate them.
