Chapter 303 - The Liu Couple’s Suicide



Shangguan Han thought of a possibility and shook his head repeatedly. “Impossible. That’s too bold.” he thought.

Song Jingchen said directly, “The officials. Their inner residences.”

After some training and guidance, these girls would enter the residences of the officials. They were either concubines or maidservants. At the very least, they were good at gathering information.

Which official didn’t do anything shameful in private? With the evidence gathered by these spies, it was equivalent to holding onto the lives of those officials.

If the perpetrator was bold enough, he could even have planted one or two women in the Emperor’s harem.

It was laughable that Emperor Chong’an was wary of Shangguan Han, but he did not know that he was already surrounded by wolves.

Back in Anyang County, in order to wake Fan Mingyuan up and not hold him back, Song Jingchen asked Rooster to give him a fake certificate, but he didn’t expect it to match this place.

In fact, he was in a hurry to find Shen Yijia back then and had long killed everyone. He had also cut off all clues, so how could he find any hints?

However, it seemed that the two groups had the same goal. It was possible that they had the same master.

This way, he wasn’t technically lying to Fan Mingyuan.

Far away in Anyang County, Fan Mingyuan heard that the person sent by Emperor Chong’an had already left. Just as he heaved a sigh of relief, he felt a chill down his spine.

Unsettled, he double-checked. “Are you sure he’s gone back?”

It was said that the emperor was far away. Anyang County was now under his control.

As soon as the people sent by Emperor Chong’an arrived, he received the news. Song Jingchen had already written to remind him.

Therefore, he had already made arrangements. Emperor Chong’an’s men had been here for nearly half a month. What they saw was what Fan Mingyuan wanted them to see.

The Grandmaster suppressed his laughter. “Don’t worry, my lord. That person hasn’t returned for the past two days. No one has been coming or going in Xiagou Village recently.”

This was the first time Fan Mingyuan had done such a thing after being an official for so long. He strangely felt very excited.

He felt ashamed of his thoughts and said cautiously, “Let Xifeng be crippled for a few more days.”

What Liu Deyi knew was limited. He could only hope that the people at the foot of the mountain could capture the two monks.

The monks of Jing’an Temple did not expect someone to do such a wicked thing right under their noses.

Looking at the girls and children who had been brought out, they chanted Buddhist chants and took the initiative to settle them down.

However, these girls were afraid when they saw the man and did not let anyone approach. In the end, they still thought of a way.

They gave the girls a separate courtyard to clean up and live in.

Mo Yuan checked on them. Fortunately, these people only suffered some superficial wounds. It was inevitable that they would leave scars. At least their lives were not in danger.

The injuries on their bodies were easy to treat, but they could only rely on themselves to overcome the psychological trauma.

Shen Yijia followed Liu Piaopiao to the temporary prison.

“Stop. There are criminals locked inside. No one is allowed to approach.”

“Let me in and see my parents. I’ll only see them once.” Liu Piaopiao cried and begged.

The guards watched coldly from the sidelines, unmoved. They were also from Xunyang City. They had seen many families fall apart because their children were lost.

They had sisters in their families too. They could not sympathize with these people when they thought about how their sisters would be harmed one day.

They hated the Liu family as much as they used to be grateful to them.

“Please, let me in…”

Liu Piaopiao ignored the long saber in front of her and was about to barge in when she was pushed roughly by the soldier. She fell to the snow in a sorry state.

Shen Yijia pursed her lips and went forward to help her up.

When Liu Piaopiao saw her, she grabbed Shen Yijia’s arm tightly. “Can you ask them to let me in to see my parents?”

“It’s useless. Even if you see them, you won’t be able to save them.” Shen Yijia let Liu Piaopiao pull her along with a straight face.

The news had already spread, and many people knew about it. Even if Shangguan Han wanted to spare their lives, he had to see if the citizens of Xunyang City agreed.

Moreover, Shen Yijia would not help. In her opinion, the Liu couple deserved to die.

Those girls reminded her of the people captured by the research institute in her previous life. She thought of Da Hua and herself.

The difference was that the people in the research institute valued their special abilities. These people valued the bodies and looks of those girls.

For whatever reason, they didn’t deserve to be forgiven.

Liu Piaopiao wiped her tears and choked. “I know, I know. I just want to see them one last time. I beg you, help me, okay?”

Shen Yijia glanced at her, pried her hand away, and turned to leave.

Her beautiful husband was here. She had just seen him.

Liu Piaopiao slumped back down dispiritedly. Looking at Shen Yijia’s back, hatred flashed across her eyes, but no one noticed it.

“Do you want to help her?” Song Jingchen held Shen Yijia’s hand to warm it up.

Shen Yijia tilted her head and asked, “Can I?”

She didn’t understand their process very well, afraid that she would make things difficult for Song Jingchen if she agreed easily.

Song Jingchen rubbed her head dotingly. “If you want to, you can.”

It was just a meeting.

“Then let them meet,” Shen Yijia said gloomily.

She did not have many friends. Liu Piaopiao probably would not want to interact with her again in the future. She would take it as repaying her kindness.

Song Jingchen glanced at South Wind, who understood and immediately made arrangements.

They were originally here to have fun. Who would have thought that so many things would happen overnight?

Song Jingchen didn’t want Shen Yijia to let her imagination run wild, so he brought her back to her room to rest. No one saw a messenger pigeon fly out of Jing’an Temple.

The night passed uneventfully. The two of them were woken up by a commotion. At this moment, the sky was starting to get brighter.

Song Jingchen frowned. Before he could ask, South Wind’s voice came from outside the door. “Master, the Liu couple set themselves on fire.”

It was unknown where they got the lighter from, but when they realized that something was wrong and wanted to rush in, they realized that the doors and windows had been bolted from the inside.

The water in the temple had to be brought in from elsewhere, so there was no time to put it out. Everyone could only block the source of the fire so that it wouldn’t affect the house beside them.

“They’re smart.” Song Jingchen sneered.

If the two of them did not die now, what awaited them when they returned to Xunyang City would be the anger of the commoners.

Shen Yijia was no longer sleepy. The two of them changed and got out of bed.

It was unknown when the snow stopped. Other than the traces left behind by the fire, everything else was white.

Liu Piaopiao knelt in the ruins in thin clothes and fainted a few times from crying. Everyone present were men. No one would sympathize with her because she was a member of the Liu family. Even if she wasn’t, no one could help her as men and women had to keep an appropriate distance from each other.

The monk of Jing’an Temple stood at the side and chanted the Buddhist scriptures with a compassionate expression.

This was the scene Shen Yijia saw when she arrived. The sound of chanting echoed around her.
