After marrying the hunter, he became more and more abnormal

Chapter 377: Front Edge (46)

At this moment, Feng's family.

Liu Baolian was enjoying the service of her maid complacently and eating snacks and fruits that only nobles could have. The corners of her mouth were raised high and she couldn't suppress them no matter how hard she tried.

After today, the thorn in her heart can finally be removed. That little bitch Liu Ze will be completely trampled into the mud by her and she will never be able to get up again.

"Haha~" Liu Baolian couldn't help laughing in delight. The maid who was massaging her legs asked her sweetly, "What good news has happened to the fifteenth concubine?"

"Happy event?" Liu Baolian raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "Of course it's a great happy event..."

However, before she could finish her words, a servant rushed in, shouting, "Oh no! Oh no, Fifteenth Aunt! The Madam is leading two officials over here!"

Liu Baolian was displeased and was about to scold the servant for spoiling the fun, but when she heard the official coming, her heart skipped a beat and she sat up. "What did you say?"

The servant gasped and repeated, "It's the officials, Fifteenth Aunt, it's the Madam who brought two officials with her!"

After hearing this, Liu Baolian's pupils suddenly contracted and she even forgot to close her mouth.

Did they miss the mark?

"No, it's impossible."

She planned so carefully, how could she fail?

Yes, that's right...it's impossible to fail. Maybe it's because of something else.

Liu Baolian's expression changed again and again, and the handkerchief in her hand was even pulled out of shape. After forcing herself to calm down, she turned her eyes to the servant and asked him in a deep voice: "Did you hear them say why they came to my place?"

"I don't know." The servant shook his head.

"Sister, there is no need to ask him. Let me tell you, your good deeds have been exposed. You'd better surrender and go with the official." A high-pitched female voice sounded.

Liu Baolian turned pale, and when she turned around, she saw Madam Feng and the officials walking in. Fear flashed in her eyes, but she still refused to admit it and said, "Sister, you really like to joke. I can't guess what you are talking about."

Madam Feng curled her lips and didn't want to waste any more time talking to her. She raised her hand and said to the two officers beside her, "Sir, this is the person you are looking for, Liu Baolian."

"Thank you, Madam Feng, for leading the way." After thanking her, the official walked straight towards Liu Baolian, "Liu Baolian, please follow us honestly."

Liu Baolian, who was bluffing, panicked and began to hide. "I am Master Feng's aunt. If you want to arrest me, Master Feng will never agree!"

An officer sneered and looked down upon her: "The one who wants to arrest you is the county magistrate. If you have any objections, go and tell him yourself. Take him away!"

Liu Baolian was terrified and refused to leave, but was finally forcibly taken away by two officers.

Mrs. Feng stood there and watched until Liu Baolian's screams gradually faded away. Then she snorted coldly, left after saying "not presentable enough".

Liu Baolian was quickly taken to the court.

As soon as she came in, she met the young man face to face. The young man smiled at her slightly, and Liu Baolian felt cold all over her body instantly.

She hastily looked away, but caught a glimpse of Du Dazhuang and Ning kneeling on the ground: "!"

"Your Majesty!"

Liu Baolian was forced to kneel down.

"Bang!" County Magistrate He had a very bad first impression of Liu Baolian. He slapped the wake-up stick hard. The sound was so loud that it seemed like it hit Liu Baolian's body, causing her body to shake violently.

"The one in the hall is Liu Baolian!" County Magistrate He looked down at Liu Baolian with a stern face.

Liu Baolian was trembling with fear. She subconsciously looked at Master Feng standing next to County Magistrate He. Tears welled up in her eyes and she called out "Master" in a trembling voice.

Upon hearing this, Magistrate He and Master Feng both frowned, while the young man secretly bit his lip, trying to hold back his laughter.

Is Liu Baolian's brain completely rusty? She actually dares to ignore the official's words.

Because of this small detail, County Magistrate He's attitude towards Liu Baolian became even colder.

"Do you recognize them?" County Magistrate He pointed at Du Ning and the other man.

How could Liu Baolian admit it? "I usually stay at home to take care of the kids and never go out. How could I possibly know them? If you don't believe me, ask my master."

Master Feng: “…”

Magistrate He glanced sideways at Master Feng, who immediately replied that he was not very clear about the affairs of the rear house.

The relationship was clearly cut off, and Liu Baolian looked deeply hurt and couldn't believe it.

County Magistrate He doesn't care about this.

"You still don't admit it! Du Dazhuang, Shi Ningshi, you two speak up!"

Du Dazhuang obeyed the order and told Liu Baolian all his plans. Ning also went on to say that she hated Liu Baolian for treating her as a pawn, so she started to curse her and even wanted to hit her.

Of course, taking action is impossible.

Facing the accusations of the two men, Liu Baolian still refused to admit it. As she hesitated, the officers who went to find Sheng Gu and arrest Du Dazhuang's accomplices came back to report.

Regarding the poisonous insect, the grandfather and grandson of the Xie family requested to see a doctor, and the doctor invited from the government office also checked it, and it was indeed the same kind of poison.

As for Du Dazhuang's accomplices, there were eight people in total. Among them, the young man saw the three who were leading the charge in the pharmacy. A smile flashed in his eyes. Needless to say, they must have gone back to report the news and were then detained by Xiang Yang's men.

These people were extremely angry when they found out that Du Dazhuang had confessed everything, but at this point they couldn't help but admit it, so they just confessed everything truthfully.

Liu Baolian shook her head like a rattle, saying that she didn't do it, and that these people were slandering her. She even said that this was a play directed and acted by the young man himself, because the young man had always held a grudge against her and was taking revenge on her.

County Magistrate He did not expect that even with irrefutable evidence, Liu Baolian was still unwilling to admit it, and even turned the tables and pushed the blame onto the victim for what she had done!

"Good, very good! Come here, give me fifteen lashes of the cane! I want to see how hard she talks!"

"No! Please spare my life! I really didn't do it! I am innocent..."

"Unfair? Are you saying that I have wronged you? Beat me! Beat me hard!" County Magistrate He sneered repeatedly. He still didn't believe that he couldn't punish her.

Liu Baolian was dragged out and put on a long bench. She was so terrified that she screamed at the top of her voice: "Master! Master, help me! Master, save me...ah!"

Snap—Snap—Snap…

The boards fell on Liu Baolian's buttocks one after another. She screamed in pain, howled like a ghost, and begged for mercy with a pale face.

The young man watched coldly.

After the beating, Liu Baolian was dragged in by the officers and lay powerlessly on the ground.

County Magistrate He asked again: "Liu Baolian, do you admit your guilt?"

"...I know, I know my crime..." Liu Baolian said weakly with her eyes half closed.

"Did you ask Du Dazhuang to find Shi Ning? And asked her to put the curse on Shi Liu?"

"No, no... I only asked Du Dazhuang to find someone who was about to die of illness. It was him... he said he had a candidate." Liu Baolian turned her head and pointed at one of the eight people.
