Chapter 166: 166



166 Trial

Li Yu looked at the thieves on the ground in frustration and said calmly to Zhou Jia and the others, “Everyone is tired. It’s simple if you want to know what’s going on. We can interrogate them when the sky turns bright and it’s lively outside. Everyone is tired at this time. Go and rest!”

Ruyi looked at Li Yu in confusion. “Young Madam, why wait until dawn? Why don’t we interrogate them now?”

Li Yu smiled at Ruyi. “It’s dawn. When we interrogate, it’s fine even if there’s a big commotion.”

Zhou Jia nodded and said, “That’s right. It’s late at night, and the slightest noise will spread far. Go and rest. Let’s talk about it at dawn!”

Ruyi looked at Chang Gui and the others on the ground. He rolled his eyes and took out two incense sticks. He chuckled and said, “Young Master, Young Madam, go up first. I’ll let them have a taste of the incense.”

Zhou Jia smiled and said, “Don’t overdo it. If they become too foolish, you won’t be able to get anything out of them.”

Ruyi put down a knockout incense. “Okay, I’ll light one.”

After Li Yu and Zhou Jia left, Ruyi waved the incense in his hand and smiled at Zhao Cai. “Zhao Cai, last year, Young Madam lit the incense and shaved off High Scholar Ye’s eyebrows and hair. Do you want to shave off those two vicious women too?”

Zhao Cai imagined Old Madam Zhou and Huang Jiaoyu’s bald appearance and laughed. “Don’t be in a hurry. Let’s go after Young Master is done.”

Ruyi nodded and joined Zhao Cai. They tied Chang Gui and the others to a pillar in the cellar, lit the incense, and stuck it in the cellar. They left the cellar, covered it, and locked it.

The next day, Li Yu asked Zhao Cai to drive Zhou Jia to the Four Seas Bank to hand over the note. She brought Ruyi to the entrance of the cellar. After the smoke in the cellar had dissipated, the two of them went down.

Chang Gui and the others in the cellar lay quietly on the ground. Ruyi took a ladle and splashed water on Chang Gui’s face.

“Which bastard splashed me?” Chang Gui cursed in a daze. In the blink of an eye, he remembered that he had been caught by the Eldest Young Master’s family last night.

Chang Gui carefully cracked his eyes. He narrowed his eyes and saw Ruyi and Li Yu standing in front of him. Only then did he accept the fact that he had been captured.

With a sad face, he begged, “Brother Ruyi, tell Eldest Young Master to spare me this time! I won’t dare to do it again.”

Ruyi looked at him coldly. “This is our Young Madam. Answer her questions honestly. If Young Madam is happy, she might spare your life.”

“I will definitely tell you the truth.” Chang Gui couldn’t help but nod. He turned around and saw Young Madam looking at him coldly. Chang Gui subconsciously turned to the side and didn’t dare to look at Li Yu.

Li Yu knocked Chang Gui with the dagger in her hand. The cold dagger gently brushed past Chang Gui’s neck artery. Chang Gui’s neck hurt.

Li Yu stared at Chang Gui and said coldly, “You better tell me the truth. If you hide anything, I’ll hang you up and drain your blood.”

Chang Gui’s entire body stiffened. He didn’t dare to move; he felt his neck would be slit open if he moved. He looked at the extremely cold Li Yu in fear and couldn’t help but say, “I’ll say it. It was the Madam of the old residence. Yesterday, she called me over and gave me a thousand taels of silver. She asked me to find someone to destroy you in front of Eldest Young Master before killing him. Then, I’ll…”

Chang Gui spilled everything. Li Yu thought to herself, Vicious woman, let’s see who’s destroyed!

Ruyi endured the anger in his heart and recorded everything Chang Gui said so that he could press his handprint.

Li Yu asked again, “Do you know the truth about Madam being framed back then?”

Chang Gui shook his head and said, “Young Madam, I’m not sure about this. We have to ask the old lady and madam at the old residence.”

Seeing that she could not get anything else out of him, Li Yu covered Chang Gui’s mouth with a rag and broke his leg. Chang Gui fainted from the pain.

Li Yu instructed Ruyi, “These few people might still be useful. Don’t injure them. I’ll leave the remaining few to you to interrogate. You have to record them all. Also, when he wakes up, ask him where his family lives now. Invite his mother over to explain what she knows.”

“Yes, Young Madam.” Ruyi waited for Li Yu to walk out of the cellar and start interrogating Qi Hu, Jiang Shuncai, and Haozi.

Qi Hu and the others were still very tough at first. But after their arms and legs got dislocated by Ruyi, and their mouths were blocked, they were in so much pain that they could not shout. They trembled in pain and broke out in cold sweat.

Ruyi looked at them and said, “Are you talking? Chang Gui has already confessed. Tell me honestly, as long as it matches Chang Gui’s confession, I’ll reattach your arms and legs. Otherwise, you’ll be crippled for the rest of your life!”

Qi Hu and the others nodded desperately when they heard that. After Ruyi took out the cloth in their mouths, they obediently confessed.

Ruyi waited for Chang Gui to wake up. She asked where he lived and went to his house. He knocked on the door and someone quickly opened it.

Ruyi bared his white teeth and smiled at Granny Yun. “Hello, Granny Yun!”

“Ruyi, you…” When Granny Yun saw Ruyi, her face turned pale.

Ruyi looked at her and said coldly, “Granny Yun, long time no see! Have you been well? Did you sleep well at night? Didn’t Madam stand in front of your bed to ask you why you helped the wicked?”

Granny Cloud tried desperately to close the door. “I don’t know,” she shouted. “Don’t ask me.”

Ruyi whispered in Granny Yun’s ear, “You don’t know about your son, Chang Gui, do you? Let me think. Shall I cut off an ear or a finger and send it to you?”

When Granny Yun heard this, she was terrified. She pounced in front of Ruyi and took a few steps back. She asked with a slight tremble, “What did you do to my son? That has nothing to do with him. Please let him go.”

Ruyi looked at Granny Yun and said, “Let him go? You have to come with me and explain what happened in the past to the Young Master.”

Granny Yun gritted her teeth and said, “Alright, I’ll go with you, as long as you let my son go.” Ruyi got into the car with Granny Yun and walked towards Ten Families Alley.

Zhou Jia and Zhao Cai had already returned from the Four Seas Bank. When they saw Li Yu, they asked, “Yu’er, how’s the interrogation?”

“Take a look!” Li Yu handed their confessions to Zhou Jia with a dark expression. Seeing Li Yu’s angry expression, Zhou Jia comforted her. “Yu’er, don’t be angry. I’ve long experienced the viciousness of those two people. It’s not worth it to hate such vicious women.”

Li Yu looked at Zhou Jia with heartache and said, “I’m not angry. I’m worried that you’ll be angry.”

“Let me see.” Zhou Jia had long understood that those two people would not show mercy to his family. When he saw what Chang Gui had said about Huang Jiaoyu instructing him to destroy Li Yu, he was so angry that his entire body trembled. “Vicious woman, I’ll go find them.”

In a fit of anger, Zhou Jia rushed out with the confession. Li Yu stopped him and said, “It’s not the time to look for them now. Ruyi has already gone to Chang Gui’s house to look for that woman. It’s not too late to go after getting that woman’s confession.”
