How did I, a mere son-in-law lying down, become a "Fenglang Juxu" (a legendary martial art

Liu Shan asked Xiao Kuihua, "Now, do you have anything else to say?"

With a towel stuffed in her mouth, Little Sunflower could only make "woo woo woo" sounds.

Liu Shan nodded in agreement: "Very good, it's a good thing to admit your mistakes."

Little Sunflower rolled her eyes in anger.

Soon after, Officer Han brought over a wooden box.

The box wasn't big, and it didn't look heavy.

Liu Shan opened the box and rummaged through it.

After a while, he found a neatly folded letter.

Liu Shan didn't rush to look, but asked instead, "Is this all of Peony's belongings? What about the silver and jewelry?"

The old woman answered softly, "All the jewelry has been pawned for silver, and the silver has been used to bury Peony."

Liu Shan said dismissively, "Do you think I'm a fool? Or do you look down on the government office?"

The old woman remained silent.

Liu Shan didn't want to waste words on this kind of person, so he directly ordered, "Tian Fugui, continue."

Tian Fugui smiled excitedly. The acupuncture points he used were all theoretical, but now that he had live experimental subjects, he was overjoyed.

This time, the old woman held out longer than before, enduring two full injections before finally revealing the truth.

The silver left behind by Mudan amounted to five hundred taels, which the nanny took back to her hometown to use for her son's wedding.

After a moment's thought, Liu Shan ordered, "Take her to sign and affix her seal, then punish her according to the law, and recover the money as well."

The two constables immediately obeyed and escorted the old woman away.

Only then did Liu Shan open the letter and read its contents.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Liu Shan paused for a moment, then ignored him.

"Ohh Ohh ohh!"

Liu Shan looked up. "You admitted your mistake? If you had done this earlier, nothing would have happened. You wouldn't have had to suffer like this."

"Officer Han, untie her."

Little Sunflower, now free, glared at Liu Shan and declared, "I refuse to accept this!"

Liu Shan didn't even glance at her, and said directly, "Get her out."

The constables immediately carried out the order.

However, to everyone's surprise, Little Sunflower actually knew martial arts.

Although it was just some basic, rudimentary skill, it was already quite extraordinary for a courtesan.

"Hmm?" Liu Shan looked at Xiao Kuihua twice, not expecting that this young girl was not very good at kung fu at such a young age.

"If they resist arrest, take them back and put them in jail."

As soon as she finished speaking, Sunflower's eyes immediately cleared, and she stopped resisting, standing obediently in place.

Although she was young, she understood that once you were in a prison, you had no control over your own destiny.

"I refuse to accept this!" she hissed.

Liu Shan originally intended to say, "If you're not convinced, I'll beat you until you submit," but suddenly, a name made him change his mind.

"I, Ye Ping, refuse to accept this!"

Liu Shan smiled and asked, "Your name is Ye Ping'an? Which 'Ye'? Which 'Ping'?"

Little Sunflower blurted out: "The night is peaceful, the night is peaceful."

Liu Shan's gaze immediately sharpened, and he shouted sternly, "You're asking for a beating!"

After saying that, he rushed forward and used the boxing and fighting moves he had learned in his previous life.

"Beat me, and I'll let you go."

Ye Ping'an learned martial arts when he was a child. Although his skills were not good and he only learned some superficial techniques, he learned the bad habits of martial artists quite well.

At this moment, she puffed out her cheeks and used her small and agile stature to wage guerrilla warfare.

However, Liu Shan's previous life boxing style was characterized by light heavyweight agility, so he was completely at ease in his fight against Ye Ping'an.

As long as she dares to launch an attack, Liu Shan will definitely strike first, thwarting her attack halfway.

Soon, Ye Ping'an stopped, realizing that the bad guy in front of her was toying with her.

Liu Shan put away his stance, sat down to read the letter; the amount of exercise he had just done was hardly a warm-up for him.

Although Ye Pingan couldn't beat Liu Shan, he was still furious.

Liu Shan pointed to the seat in front of him and said casually, "Don't just stand there, sit down."

Ye Ping'an was even angrier. This was her private room, wasn't it?

These are a group of wicked people who dare to break into women's private rooms.

Despite inwardly cursing, she still politely asked, "May I ask, sir, what is your official position?"

Liu Shan looked down at the letter, "Clerk of the government office."

Ye Ping'an was taken aback. A clerk? Just an insignificant little clerk?

A lowly official without even a rank, worse than a petty official?

Ye Ping'an's face was full of contempt, feeling that he had succeeded again.

Liu Shan didn't look up, but as if he knew what Ye Ping'an was thinking, he asked, "Do you look down on me, a mere clerk?"

Ye Ping'an was about to tell the truth, but then abruptly stopped herself.

Liu Shan frowned, focusing almost all his attention on the letter.

However he viewed it, the letter was simply an ordinary family letter that Chen An wrote to his younger sister.

There is no hidden beginning or end, and no hidden meaning.

How the hell do we fix this?

Could there be other letters?

However, Liu Shan believed that there shouldn't be any, and that if there were more letters, the blood-written letters with the characters of the birth date and time should have provided clues.

Just as he was at his wit's end, Ye Pingan suddenly whispered, "The blacksmith shop in Jinhua County."

Liu Shan was taken aback for a moment, then asked, "What did you just say?"

Night is as peaceful as a proud little peacock, raising its head and looking down at people with its nostrils.

"What a big booger."

"what!"

Ye Ping'an broke down; she was devastated. How could the person in front of her be so rude?

He really is a bad guy!

She pointed to the constables around her, "Tell them to leave, and I'll tell you."

Liu Shan suddenly spoke up: "The blacksmith shop in Jinhua County?"

Ye Pingan went crazy. Is this guy sick?

Why ask again when you clearly heard it?

Liu Shan pushed the letter in front of Ye Ping'an and said in a commanding tone, "Explain in detail the pattern in the letter, how you discovered it. If you explain clearly, I won't hold you responsible for peeking at the secret letter."

"you you you……"

In the end, Ye Pingan compromised and honestly recounted the whole story.

Liu Shan then realized that Chen An had indeed hidden his thoughts in the letter.

However, unlike ordinary acrostic letters, Chen An hid his thoughts in the first character of the second sentence, the second character of the third sentence, the third character of the fourth sentence, and so on.

At this moment, Ye Pingan cautiously asked, "Is this really a secret letter?"

Liu Shan nodded.

Ye Ping'an's face immediately turned deathly pale; clearly, she realized the seriousness of the situation.

Having obtained the necessary information, Liu Shan immediately stood up. "Officer Han, take this girl with you, let's go back to the government office."

Ye Ping'an did not resist; she knew it would be futile.

She placed her hopes on other people.

As soon as Liu Shan and his men arrived at the backyard of Lou Wai Lou, they were stopped.

A young master, accompanied by a dozen servants, blocked the back gate, looking as if his lair had been raided.

The young master clasped his hands and asked, "My name is Fang Hao, the owner of Lou Wai Lou. May I ask which esteemed person is handling a case here?"

Liu Shan didn't recognize him, but the owner of Lou Wai Lou was definitely not an ordinary person, and certainly wouldn't give a lowly clerk like him any face. "Thank you for reading and for your votes, dear readers!"

Especially for the readers who followed the story to the very end!

May everything go smoothly for you in the new year, and may all your wishes come true!

Wishing you wealth, love, and lasting good fortune!

I also hope that "The Son-in-Law" can be successfully completed.
