Chapter 317: Eliminating harm for the people
Yu Jiuer held her forehead and advised: "Eighth Princess, you are about to get married, but you still have another man in your heart. How are you going to deal with it in the future? Don't get deeper and deeper!"
"Let's take it one step at a time! After all, I am happy now. From now on, let the memories accompany me for the rest of my life!" The Eighth Princess sighed softly, her expression lonely. She raised her head and forced a smile to Yu Jiuer.
"Sister Yu, thank you for helping me delay the days of reaching Miaojiang. I am really happy. Even being besieged by Gu people feels good. For the rest of my life, this is the motivation that keeps me alive!"
Yu Jiuer's nose was sour, and she held her hand and sighed, "I can't help you much, it's just scratching the itch through the shoe, drinking poison to quench thirst! You sacrificed yourself for the peaceful coexistence of the Great Dong Dynasty and Miaojiang, what does it mean for me to do this for you?
However, this time the Miaojiang poison has spread to the border town. I don’t know how long this peace can last. I hope your sacrifice is worth it.”
Jun Mo and Shang Buqun ordered the guards to take the bully to the inn and interrogate him overnight.
The bullies whose fingers or hands were severed screamed in pain.
The innkeeper, the waiter, and many other people were standing outside the lobby door, looking in. When they heard the bully's shouts, they angrily cursed:
"You also feel pain? You have chopped off so many people's hands and feet. Don't they feel pain?"
"My son owed you a month's rent, and you chopped off his legs. Now he's lying on the bed half dead. You deserve this!"
"This is retribution. Kill them! Get rid of this evil for the people!"
......
The people were filled with righteous indignation and threw rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs at the bullies; splashed foot washing water and urine on them, and even threw stones.
The guards had no time to stop it, and the hall was already in a mess.
Jun Mo had no choice but to order the guards to ask the excited people to leave first, otherwise there would be no way to conduct the trial.
All the people were driven out of the alley by the guards and could only listen to the trial from a distance.
Jun Mo asked sternly: "Who did you get the poison from?"
The one-eyed bully wailed, "Ouch, it hurts so much, I advise you to let us go, otherwise General Liu, the border town commander, will not let you go! Just wait for your death!"
"Don't worry! It will be General Liu's turn soon!" Jun Mo said in a cold voice. He raised his hand and stabbed the one-eyed bully's thigh with his sword without hesitation. "If you don't tell the truth, it will be more than just a minor injury!"
"Ah!" The one-eyed bully grimaced in pain. "If you offend us, you won't be able to leave the border town! Just wait for me!"
Jun Mo glanced at the other bullies with a cold look, his eyes fierce: "No one is willing to confess, right?"
The bullies are silent!
Jun Mo sneered and with a gesture, the guards brought ropes and hung up all the dozen bullies.
The lobby on the first floor of the Shangjia Restaurant was instantly filled with "cured meat", and the people who saw it from afar all applauded.
"Cut off your flesh piece by piece for me. I want to see how long they can keep their stubbornness." Jun Mo gave the order coldly.
"My king? Who are you?" The one-eyed bully finally realized the danger.
Shang Buqun waved his folding fan and said coldly: "You don't even know the famous Prince Jing? You deserve to fall!"
"Prince Jing?"
All the bullies showed horrified expressions, unable to hold back any longer, and begged for mercy, "Prince Jing, please spare us! We were also instructed by someone. It was General Liu, the border city garrison commander, and his accomplices who brought the poisonous insects. It has nothing to do with us!"
They never dreamed that they would be punished for molesting two women on the street?
Jun Mo then asked: "Besides those Gu masters outside, how many Gu masters do you have?"
The bullies looked at each other and spoke at the same time, but their answers were inconsistent: "One hundred", "One thousand", "No more!"
"Your Highness, since they are all disobedient, why not castrate them first and then interrogate them!" Yu Jiuer's voice came from the corridor on the second floor.
Jun Mo rubbed his forehead, and Shang Buqun said bluntly: "Is this what you, the Princess of Jing, should say?"
"Princess Jing? Hiss!" The bullies gasped and regretted their actions so much that their intestines turned green.
Why did he have the bad luck to tease Princess Jing when he could tease anyone else? Isn't this just jumping into the fire pit?
Dead!
Yu Jiuer shrugged and shouted to the crowd, "I'm bored so I'm going to give you some advice. If you men don't like to use this trick, I have other tricks.
I have an itch medicine. If you sprinkle it on people, they will feel extremely itchy. Even scratching their bones won’t stop the itch. I also have ‘Laughing Pills’. Give them one pill each. I guarantee they will laugh until they go crazy and can’t stop. I also have ‘Bone and Flesh Powder’. If you take it, you will feel truly heartbroken…”
Every time Yu Jiuer said something, the bullies' faces became uglier. Finally, someone couldn't hold it anymore and cried out loudly, "I confess, I confess everything, just give me a quick death!"
Soon, all the bullies surrendered.
According to their account, there are as many as 4,000 Gu masters in the border town?
Who knows how many other places in the border areas there are near the border town!
Those who were poisoned by the Gu were all young and middle-aged men of the Dadong Dynasty, who were once the pillars of the people's families.
Several bullies said in unison: "We just bought the poison from the border town commander and planted it on them. We don't know how the poison got to General Liu!"
Shang Buqun asked: "How many of you participated in the creation of the Gu Man?"
"There are only twenty or so people from our Border Town Alliance, no one else!" The bully knew that the game was over, and confessed everything in a dejected manner.
"How can we detoxify these poisoned people?" This is the question that Yu Jiuer is most concerned about.
"We don't know how to solve it either! But as long as we don't whistle, they will be no different from animals, without any feeling. We can feed them with some porridge every day!"
Yu Jiuer felt sad when she heard this.
After eradicating this alliance, the people cheered with excitement, and kept shouting: "Prince Jing is awesome! Thank you, Prince Jing, for eliminating this evil for the people..."
Yu Jiuer frowned and said, "I seriously suspect that Miaojiang wants to control the border through poison and then erode our Great Dong Dynasty step by step."
Shang Buqun snorted coldly and said, "Whether it is true or not, we can go to the mansion of General Liu, the border city garrison commander, and we will know, right?"
He and Jun Mo looked at each other and nodded at the same time, planning to press on with the victory and visit General Liu overnight before he noticed anything.
When leaving, Jun Mo told Yu Jiuer: "We are going to settle accounts with General Liu. You and Min'er stay in the inn and don't leave!"
Yu Jiuer nodded.
Shang Buqun suddenly asked her: "Can you give me some of your itching medicine, laughing pills, and bone and flesh powder?"
Yu Jiuer touched her forehead and winked at him, "Hey, this, this! You know it!"
Shang Buqun widened his eyes. He felt that his brain was not enough in front of her. How could he be fooled by her and even believe it?
Jun Mo sneered. His wife was always good at fooling people.
Not long after, the two men who had prepared their things disappeared into the dark night with a dozen guards.
Yu Jiuer and the Eighth Princess waited in the inn for five days before Jun Mo and Shang Buqun returned.
Yu Jiuer asked anxiously, "How is it? Did General Liu confess everything?"
"He has no choice but to confess!" Jun Mo looked tired. It seemed that they had been investigating the case non-stop these past few days.
Yu Jiuer came over and massaged his shoulders with great insight: "Is there an antidote for the poison? Who allowed the poison to flow into the Great Dong Dynasty?"
"There is currently no antidote for the poison. After we go to Miaojiang, we may have to stay there for a while to find an antidote!" Jun Mo rubbed his brows and continued.
"General Liu and others also bought from Miaojiang merchants, but fortunately not much has flowed in. I have ordered all the people involved in the case in the border town to be escorted back to the capital to be dealt with by my father. Those poisoned people can only be kept for now, and they can only wake up after taking the antidote!"
"I hope this is not a conspiracy of the Miaojiang court, otherwise it will be embarrassing for the Eighth Princess to marry into Miaojiang!" The more Yu Jiuer thought about it, the more frightened she became.
