Gourmet Girl: Becoming a Royal Merchant Started from Selling Buns
Chapter 112: There is always a mountain stronger than the other
Su An only felt his scalp relax, and before he could react, the secret guard rushed into the group of strong men, punching with the left and kicking with the right.
I don’t know how strong the force was, but anyone who was hit by a few moves from the secret guards would soon faint from the pain while wailing.
In a few seconds, the dozen or so strong men were lying on the ground with bruises and unconscious.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Sun Ming tried to run away, but was kicked sharply and fell flat on his face, losing two of his front teeth.
Without waiting for him to scream, the secret guard tied him up and gagged him, then picked him up and threw him in front of Su An.
"Mmmm--" Sun Ming looked at Su An, his expression filled with fear and shock.
"Be quiet!" The secret guard coldly stepped on his face again and crushed him to the ground in disgust.
Su An opened his eyes wide, and through the upturned and beautiful eyebrows of the secret guard, he could tell that it was a woman.
"Wow! You're so handsome, sister!"
That skill just now, that dazzling display, that dancing dragon and phoenix.
Just like that, it fell from the sky!
An Wu was also stunned. He didn't expect Su An to be so... so straightforward?
Facing Su An's sincere admiring eyes, her face covered with black cloth showed heat, and she coughed shyly: "Ahem, Miss Su, you can call me An Wu."
"This person is trying to harm Miss Su. I can't make a decision on my own. I have to take him back to the master for punishment!"
"You're awesome. I'll listen to you." Su An nodded with a smile, looked at Sun Ming who was crying out in vain, and kicked him again to vent his anger.
"You are crazy, there is always someone stronger than you, you are stupid!"
An Wu's face turned red again. It was Su An who was proud, but why was she so embarrassed...
I heard An Yi say that it was a demon that could bewitch people, and it turns out that it has some tendency to do so.
An Wu's face was burning with anger, and he quickly carried Sun Ming back, while Su An followed happily.
Sun Ming was quickly brought before Fu Zhun.
After learning what had happened, Fu Zhun's dark eyes darkened, and his sharp and cold gaze fell on Sun Ming.
"How do you know that the person who sued is Su An?"
When the master interrogated him, An Wu immediately untied the gag on Sun Ming.
Sun Ming knew he had hit a wall. He broke out in a cold sweat and lost his arrogance. "I, I don't know. I heard that girl had caused trouble in the granary, so I guessed..."
Fu Zhun's eyes grew darker, and his voice was chilling as he spoke, "Grain prices have increased, and many people are causing trouble. You're just a greedy grain merchant, and you don't have the ability to see through things like that."
After he finished speaking, he closed his eyes slightly and ordered, "He's still stubborn. Pull out his tongue first."
Su An on the side couldn't help but shrink his neck.
She knew that this was the procedure for the interrogation, but she still had to sigh that when Fu Zhun spoke with a cold face, the intimidating aura around him was really not to be underestimated.
Sun Ming's face turned pale, and he swallowed his saliva furiously and said, "I'll tell you, I'll tell you! I bribed Li Si, the bailiff in the county government office. He told me that the girl who filed the complaint was called Su An, so I took people to follow her all the way. I just wanted to vent my anger!"
"I confessed everything, please spare my life!"
Fu Zhun indifferently raised his finger and tapped the armrest: "Take him away, cripple his limbs, and hand him over to Lin Yong for sentencing."
"Then arrest those merchants who disrupt the market and send them to the county government for punishment."
"Yes." An Wu accepted the order and dragged the screaming Sun Ming away.
Su An blinked, still not coming back to his senses.
Is this over?
Is it that easy? ?
If she had known what Fu Zhun said, why would she have run around outside for most of the day?
She rubbed her aching legs and sighed, "I never thought these businessmen could bribe even the yamen runners. Money really makes the world go round!"
Hearing this, Fu Zhun looked at her, his expression softened, but he shook his head: "I'm afraid it's more than that."
"If you can bribe one, you can bribe the second. This is an internal matter of the county government. Let Lin Yong investigate it himself."
Su An thought of Lin Yong's busy and overwhelmed appearance, and sighed for him in his heart for two seconds.
Perhaps it was because the county magistrate was so impartial that he would spare no effort in investigating and verifying any case of a lost chicken or a theft of two taels of silver, so he was unaware that someone had infiltrated his area.
Su An didn't want to miss the satisfying scene of punishing the unscrupulous businessman, so he went to the county government office despite the pain in his legs.
"Sun Ming, you attempted murder in the street and led the charge in defying orders and arbitrarily raising grain prices. You are sentenced to immediate execution. Take him to the market and behead him in public!"
When she arrived, Lin Yong was dealing with Sun Ming.
Under normal circumstances, Sun Ming might not have needed to be executed if he was charged with attempted murder.
But the world is in chaos now, and Lin Yong is in urgent need of killing a chicken to scare the monkeys!
"As for the other grain merchants under your command, they have been faking compliance after the grain order was issued, selling inferior goods as good quality, and selling dog meat under the guise of sheep. Considering that they are first-time offenders, all their property will be confiscated and they will be punished with fifty strokes of the cane and executed immediately!"
The people surrounding outside cheered excitedly.
"Well done! These unscrupulous scum, who profited from their wealth without mercy, finally got their comeuppance!"
"Humph, they exploited us ordinary people, they deserved to die!"
Everyone was very excited and followed the team escorting Sun Ming, throwing rotten vegetable leaves at them.
Su An also felt that he had let out a lot of anger and felt very refreshed.
Lin Yong came down the hall and saw her, and hurried over: "Miss Su, please thank the prince on my behalf. Thanks to the prince for arresting these black-hearted merchants, the grain prices are finally under control."
Su An nodded, looked at Lin Yong's exhausted face, and asked with concern: "Why execute Sun Ming so soon? Did they find out all the spies?"
Mentioning this, Lin Yong's face turned much uglier, with a hint of ashenness.
When Sun Ming was brought here, he was covered in wounds and was terrified.
Without waiting for his interrogation, Sun Ming spilled all the information to save his life, and finally claimed that he knew the concubine in his house and asked him to show mercy!
He followed the clues and discovered that his concubine was in collusion with Sun Ming, and many servants in the mansion had been bribed!
"The spy has been identified. Bring him up!"
Lin Yong spoke, and a trembling woman and four or five yamen runners or servants were brought over in an orderly manner.
They were tied up and had cloth stuffed in their mouths, so they could only whimper and beg for mercy.
Especially the woman in the lead, she was born with the appearance of a beautiful girl from a small family. As soon as she was brought up, tears began to fall from her eyes, looking at Lin Yong intently.
Lin Yong simply glanced at her, then clenched his fist and looked away. "Alas! To be honest, this woman was once my concubine. I never thought she would have an affair with a dishonest businessman, repeatedly leaking government affairs, and this time, she almost harmed Miss Su."
"Bringing them here together to deal with them together is also a way to give Miss Su justice."
Su An was stunned for a moment, and looked at Lin Yong in surprise and disbelief.
This... Lin Yong can actually speak out this kind of private matter with a green head in a fair and just manner?
A man of God!
Just as she was wondering what Lin Yong would do, she heard him sternly shout, "Beat these traitors to death with clubs!"
