Chapter 2049: The Minister of Revenue Amasses Wealth

When they heard the words "Minister of the Ministry of Revenue", Chen Changli and Wan Shufang were startled and their eyes were filled with shock. They couldn't believe that the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue would do such a thing.

He is so ambitious that he wants to control the officials in the court. What on earth does he want to do?

"Changli, this matter is probably difficult to handle. It involves the imperial court and too many people."

As soon as he finished speaking, the county magistrate immediately pulled Chen Changli's trouser legs and tried to survive: "As long as the master and his wife can spare my life, I am willing to tell you everything I know!"

"You won't die until the matter is investigated." Chen Changli glanced at him calmly and kicked him away: "An Yi, take him back and lock him up first."

"My subordinate understands."

An Yi saluted and took two secret guards with him to tie up the county magistrate and take him away. The county magistrate was still making a lot of noise, and An Yi was annoyed by the noise, his eyes darkened, and he knocked the man unconscious.

He breathed a sigh of relief, finally being able to take it back easily and quietly.

Soon, Niu Jinzhi also learned that the county magistrate had been arrested. Knowing that the situation was hopeless, she completely collapsed and hurriedly ran to Wan Shufang's yard to look for someone.

When Wan Shufang saw Niu Jinzhi, she didn't want to see her at first. However, the fat and clumsy man was surprisingly agile at this moment. She immediately stood in front of her and knelt down to beg.

"Madam, please let me go. My father has used me as a tool since I was young and turned me into a poisonous body. I have never had freedom and have never been treated sincerely." She cried miserably. As she spoke, she kowtowed to Wan Shufang, her face covered with tears and snot.

She was really afraid that she would be implicated if the county magistrate was arrested.

"Madam, I am also a poor man. Please spare my life."

Hearing these words, Wan Shufang pursed her lips with a complicated expression. She lowered her eyes and looked at Niu Jinzhi. Although she sympathized with her experience, she could not forgive her for killing so many innocent men.

Besides, it was true that the county magistrate was at fault for turning her body into a poisonous one, but it was Niu Jinzhi's own decision to bully women and men and only harm good-looking men.

Thinking of this, Wan Shufang sighed and shook her head helplessly: "Instead of coming to me to beg you, you might as well run away. I don't have the time to spend looking for you."

"But now that you've come to me for begging, I can't just sit back and do nothing. I should seek justice for those men who died unjustly." As she spoke, Wan Shufang waved her hand, and An appeared in an instant.

When Niu Jinzhi saw the man in black, she suddenly felt that she had been fooled. She stood up tremblingly, turned around and wanted to run, but was knocked unconscious by An Yi's palm.

To deal with the Niu family father and daughter, it is more practical to knock them out.

"Ma'am, how is she going to deal with this?"

"Take them to the prison and lock them up together. I need to discuss the rest with Chen Changli."

"Yes, ma'am."

An Yiben wanted to carry Niu Jinzhi away directly, but found that he couldn't lift her. He wiped the sweat off his forehead awkwardly and silently called two more secret guards.

Niu Jinzhi was big in stature, so they almost had to carry her to prison.

When Niu Jinzhi woke up, she found herself in prison. Despair was all over her face and she huddled in the corner and cried.

Suddenly, an irritated male voice came from the other side, scolding her mercilessly: "Shut up, ugly thing, you are making so much noise, do you know that?"

"You...you are Ayuan?" Niu Jinzhi couldn't believe it. She pulled the iron gate and saw the man opposite her. The man turned his head.

That face engraved in her bones instantly made Niu Jinzhi overjoyed, but at the same time she was worried: "Ayuan, how come you were also arrested? Are you okay? Did they beat you?"

Her series of questions were originally out of worry, but it made the ugly man very upset. He looked at her with a sneer: "Niu Jinzhi, you are really as stupid as a pig. Even now that you can't protect yourself, you still only have men in your eyes and heart?"

"If it weren't for the money you gave me before, who would want to have anything to do with an ugly person like you? Now you are no longer a daughter of a rich family, you have no right to talk to me."

The man looked at Niu Jinzhi with disgust. He knew some inside information about her arrest this time, so in his opinion, it was because of Niu Jinzhi's family that they ended up like this.

He hated Niu Jinzhi to death!

Niu Jinzhi still didn't understand the situation. She stepped back in shock and murmured, "Ayuan, what are you talking about? Didn't you say you wanted to marry me and that you loved me the most?"

"Idiot, I was just trying to coax you. If it weren't for your money, I would have vomited for three days if I kissed you like this. You're so ugly and disgusting."

Seeing the disgust and contempt in the man's eyes, and the undisguised malicious insults in his tone, Niu Jinzhi instantly felt disheartened.

She understood everything, and tears flowed down her face uncontrollably. She cried and then laughed, and she seemed like a madman.

Due to the change in her emotions, the toxins in her body began to take effect. The pain came over her and Niu Jinzhi curled up on the ground with cold sweat on her forehead.

"It hurts, it hurts so much, why... why do you treat me like this, why doesn't any of you treat me sincerely..." She was filled with resentment, but could only huddle in the cold cell, struggling to endure the torture of the recurrence of the illness.

Her body was in so much pain that she couldn't help but beg for mercy again: "Wan Shufang, Madam, please save me and cure this poison for me."

In Niu Jinzhi's subconscious mind, Wan Shufang knew that she was poisoned and could help Chen Changli remove the poison from the Black Water Pill, so she must be able to save herself as well.

But no matter how much she begged, Wan Shufang never came.

the other side.

Chen Changli and Wan Shufang had already collected evidence of the crime. After discussion, they decided to escort the county magistrate back to Yongzhou City and hand it over to the emperor for a decision.

One day when the evidence was sent up, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue also learned the news and became anxious. He hurried back home and summoned the assassins he had trained.

"You, take twenty people immediately and kill Chen Changli and Wan Shufang for me. Don't let them live and make up stories in front of His Majesty." The man had a sinister look on his face. After giving the order, he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the assassins leave.

Although the emperor knew about this matter and had seen the evidence, as long as Chen Changli and Wan Shufang were unable to come forward and deceive the emperor, he still had a chance to defend himself.

By then, the court officials will help him and he will definitely be able to overcome the difficulties.

late at night.

The assassins followed the instructions and sneaked into the residence of Chen Changli and Wan Shufang, but before they could find the two, they were surrounded by dozens of secret guards.

The assassins looked at each other and immediately realized something was wrong.

"Oh no, we've fallen into a trap!" The leader exclaimed. Just as he was about to bite the poison, he suddenly smelt a fragrance at the tip of his nose and fell limply to the ground.

Seeing this, An Yi chuckled. Fortunately, they were well prepared and brought cartilage powder with them. Now, the people didn't even have the strength to die and could only be caught by them in one fell swoop.
