.Who would have thought it would be exposed so quickly! At this point, there's no choice but to fight with all my might!Liu Biaotou was the first to charge in, just as the people inside rushed out. At...The jailers turned back to look at the door. One of them said, "It's alright if there's nothing. The key ring was taken by the boss. Wait until tomorrow morning and we'll bring it out then."

Upon hearing this, the wealthy young man perked up immediately. He pulled out a die and invited everyone to gamble a few rounds...

They played until the middle of the night, everyone was too tired to keep going, and finally fell asleep on the table.

In the innermost cell, the driest spot was covered with a straw mat, topped with oilcloth to keep out moisture, and finally a thick quilt.

Jiayì and Lao Huáng lay side by side, covered by a blanket, snoring soundly and sweetly.

In the corner across from them sat a thin man with a sharp nose and cheekbones, looking like a thief.

At this moment, everyone couldn't help but feel sleepy, but his eyes were still rolling around restlessly.

Perhaps to confirm his safety, he carefully got up.

Oil lamps flickered on the distant wall, casting a dim yellow light.

He borrowed the light, glanced at Jia Yi and Lao Huang who were asleep, and instinctively held his breath.

Then, she took out a small porcelain bottle from her tangled hair and sprinkled some powder near Jia Yi and Lao Huang.

After a while, he tentatively kicked the feet of the two people. Seeing no reaction, he bent down and pulled out a knife from under their shoes. He gritted his teeth, trembling as he slashed towards Jia Yi's neck...

Instead of sleeping as he should, Lao Huang suddenly widened his eyes and kicked him away with one foot.

The thief slammed against the wall, howling in pain. His cry woke everyone else in the prison.

Old Huang rushed forward and slashed wildly, until the thief was half-dead. He then rummaged in the thief's mouth and pulled out a venomous fang. Finally, he gave the porcelain bottle and dagger to Jia Yi along with it.

Jia Yi had already sat up and started watching the show when Lao Huang began to move.

Being in danger, how could he possibly have no precautions

Besides, Father had already sent a letter to him in the daytime!

This thief is leaving so many empty cells to go into this one Only a fool wouldn't see that something is fishy!

At this moment, he took the thing Lao Huang handed him and smiled, "I'll add you a chicken leg tomorrow!"

Lao Huang scratched his bald head, grinned and lay down, almost instantly falling asleep again……

A few guards awakened in the distance cautiously approached, smiling nervously and asking, "General Xiao Li, what's going on"

Jia Yi tossed the things in his hands and sneered, "If my memory serves me right, neither Lord Prefect nor the imperial court has sentenced me to death, have they"

"How could this sudden intrusion have happened A thief snuck in at midnight, drugged me with some kind of medicine, and then held a dagger to my neck, intending to slit it! What on earth is going on"

What medicine

Cut the throat!

Several guards heard this and their legs went soft, their faces immediately paling.

Especially the wealthy son who was locked up with the bandits, almost pissed his pants.

A jailer took a long while to recover his senses, hastily waving his hand. “No, no, General Xiao Li, it must be a misunderstanding! Even if you gave us a hundred guts, we wouldn't dare harm you!”

"Please wait, we will report this right away and make sure you won't encounter such a situation again!"

After that, he quickly assigned tasks to several of his brothers.

Some went to the jailer's house to deliver messages, some went to the county government's back yard to report, and even more went to the Earl's Mansion...

Since Jia Yi's incident, Li Laoer and Li Zhensheng have been taking turns living at Earl's Mansion, just in case something happens, outsiders can't find them.

Tonight, Li La Er missed his son and drove Big Brother home to look after their mother. He stayed behind.

Upon receiving news from the magistrate of Beijing, he immediately set out to go there.

On the way, Li Lao Er encountered patrolling city guards. He directly reported his affiliation with the Earl's Mansion and openly explained the reason for his visit to the Jingzhao Prefecture prison.

The patrol officer heard that Li Jia Yi was assassinated in prison and without hesitation, immediately cleared the way and even escorted Li's carriage to the Jingzhao Mansion jail.

A private soldier, getting impatient, grumbled a few words. A junior officer heard him and whipped him around in circles with his riding crop.

"You idiot! Do you know who Li JiaYi is He's the one who kicked the hell out of the imperial uncle!

"

"Do you know why the magistrate of Jingzhao took so long to make a ruling He was waiting for the Hailan Army. Li Jia Yi is a hero who killed pirates!"

"He's in trouble, and you dare to stop the Li family Are you tired of having your head on your shoulders Do you want it chopped off"

The squad leader scolded the soldier in a low voice, and the rest of them quickly persuaded him before they went on patrol again.

When Li Lao Er came in, word spread throughout the prison. Not just the jailers who were used to staying in their cells, even the Prefect himself came.

Upon seeing Li Er, everyone awkwardly bowed. The Magistrate said, "Lord Elder, we troubled you to come out at this late hour..."

Li Laoer scowled and snorted coldly, “My son is about to be killed, how could I not come If anything happens to him, as his father, I should at least collect his body!”

"My lord, you flatter me! You flatter me!" The magistrate wiped his sweat nervously, cursing inwardly.

He was originally sleeping soundly with his concubine when suddenly disaster struck from the heavens. He had to rush over and listen to others' sarcastic remarks. Where could he go to reason

The warden was even more nervous. He had taken many benefits from the Li family and had given special instructions to Lu's son, all for the purpose of taking good care of this young General Li.

As a result, now people are under his very nose, almost killed him, he really can't explain it...

"What on earth is going on Speak up quickly!" Li Lao Er glanced at his son in the cell, and the half-dead thief, impatiently said: "I want to hear it. The Emperor hasn't issued an order yet, who dares to plot against my son!"

The magistrate looked toward the prison cell. The jailer's face was awkward, and he then looked at the several night watchmen.

One jailer couldn't escape being caught, so he bravely stepped forward and explained what happened. At the end, he didn't forget to exonerate himself.

"That… sir, it's really no wonder we are like this."

It was the rich son who put that thief in General Xiao Li's room!

"The boss isn't here either, and we don't have the key. We can't move the thief to another room, so we just thought about dealing with it for one night and bring him out early in the morning. But then something happened..."

The jailer was not stupid, his eyes rolled and he took over the conversation. "Aiya, I was fine when I had dinner, just drank a cup of tea that Fugi brought me and my stomach went bad."

"And this thief was also sent in by riches and honor..."

Everyone instinctively looked at Fu Guier, their faces full of certainty. They all knew tonight's events were this kid's doing.

The young master's face was as white as paper, his legs gave way, and he collapsed to the ground.

"I'm not, I just... I was wronged..."

He was so scared that he nearly died, and his words became incoherent.

But the magistrate was inwardly relieved. He immediately ordered, "Tie him up and interrogate him at once!"

Several jailers immediately pulled on the ropes, skillfully tying up Fu Gui like a pig for slaughter.

Although we often drink and gamble together, we get along well.

But at this point, no one could reminisce about the past anymore..., come to me and your sister. With all our family gone, only you siblings remain in Xin Du. You must look out for each other more!”"Don't worry, brother-in-law, I know." Li Yong replied sullenly.At th...
