Chapter 314 Princess, please calm down. I was negligent.
It was almost noon when Yu Da came back.
She walked up to Chu Zixi, bowed respectfully, and said, "Master..."
Chu Zixi nodded, "Xiaobai said you sent the other children home? Aren't they in a nearby village? Why did you take so long to come back?"
Yu Da sighed helplessly and explained to Chu Zixi: "Master, I didn't encounter any trouble after sending the six children home. However, when I sent the last child back to Liba Village, the situation became complicated.
The villagers mistook me for a child trafficker and held me tightly. I was afraid of hurting them, so I didn't dare to do anything rashly.
The child was so frightened that she refused to speak, which made the villagers of Liba Village more convinced that I had taken the child away. According to the villagers of Liba Village, ten children in their village have disappeared, and they are all girls.
I suggested that they go with me to the government office to report the case, but they said that Li Ping and his wife from the village had gone to the government office to report the case a month ago and had never returned.
No matter what I said, they refused to believe me and even asked me to send the other ten children back. In the end, I had to work very hard to escape from Liba Village.
Chu Zixi frowned and asked in confusion: "Since so many children are missing, it is impossible that only one or two families reported the case? Why didn't the government pay enough attention to it?"
Yu Dadao said, "Master, according to Qian Youwang, he sent people to guard near the Jingzhao government office. Once a citizen went to report a case, they were taken away and killed. As for the children kidnapped from other counties, he doesn't need to worry because they can't be found in the imperial city."
Chu Zixi's face was as gloomy as water, and her eyes were flashing with anger and murderous intent.
She clenched her fists tightly and said through gritted teeth, "Qian Youwang!" This name was like a devil, making her want to tear him into pieces.
Chu Zixi hurried to the hall. As soon as she stepped through the door, she heard an annoying voice coming from behind.
Qian Youwang shouted, "Who are you? Don't you know that I am the second young master of the Qian family? My Qian family is the richest in the imperial city. As long as you let me go, I can give you as much money as you want."
Yu San raised his foot and kicked Qian Youwang hard, knocking him to the ground.
Qian Youwang let out a scream and curled up in pain.
“Ah…” Qian Youwang’s screams echoed in the air, making people feel a sense of pleasure.
Qian Youwang trembled and asked, "Who are you?"
"Yu Er, go back to the imperial city and buy some food for those children," Chu Zixi ordered.
Yu Er responded and turned to leave.
Afterwards, Chu Zixi walked in front of Qian Youwang and kicked him in the crotch. Immediately afterwards, a heart-wrenching sound was heard. Qian Youwang's eyes rolled back, and he foamed at the mouth. He fainted from the pain.
Qian Youwang's men looked at Chu Zixi with horror on their faces. They could never have imagined that such a beautiful woman in front of them could be so cruel.
Chu Zixi looked at them expressionlessly and said coldly: "Yu Da, Yu San, tie these people up, and let's go back to the Imperial City. Leave those children to Yu Si."
After Yuda and Yusan looked at each other, they answered in unison, "Yes!"
Chu Zixi took Jun Bai's hand and walked out of the Qian Mansion's villa and got on the carriage. Qian Youwang and his men were tied up in the back of the carriage.
As the carriage started to move, the people behind could not keep up and had to be dragged along, with screams of agony heard all along the way.
Qian Youwang had already fainted from the pain, but because he was being dragged and his body rubbed against the ground, he woke up in pain.
However, not long after, he was once again tortured by the severe pain and passed out, and this happened repeatedly.
The carriage entered the imperial city. Many people watched this scene, talked about it, and followed the carriage.
The carriage slowly drove to the front of the Jingzhao government office and finally stopped. Chu Zixi gently took Jun Bai's hand and walked down from the carriage together.
At this moment, many people had followed Chu Zixi's carriage to the Jingzhao government office. They were whispering and talking, full of curiosity and confusion about what was happening before their eyes.
Chu Zixi led Jun Bai towards the Jingzhao government office. A bailiff stepped forward and asked, "Miss, are you here to report a crime? Or for other matters?"
Chu Zixi turned around and pointed behind her, only to see Yu Da holding a rope tightly in his hand, with a group of terrified people tied to the other end of the rope.
She said righteously, "Of course I'm here to report a crime! Qian Youwang is so cruel that he kidnapped young children and locked them up in the Qian Mansion. He then provided these poor children to rich people with special fetishes for them to play with. He also killed many children. In addition, he prevented the parents who lost their children from reporting the crime and even killed them to silence them!"
The yamen runners heard these words and their eyes widened in shock. The Qian family again? A murder case just happened in the Qian family. Qian Duoduo killed his half brother with his own hands. The evidence is irrefutable. He has been imprisoned in the prison and is awaiting his fate. And now, another terrible incident has occurred. The Qian family is really committing a sin!
Upon seeing this, one of the yamen runners immediately ran into the yamen to report the matter.
When the people around heard this, the discussion became louder, and many of them notified their neighbors who had lost their children.
When Chu Zixi walked into the court, Jingzhao Prefecture Prefect Mu Shan immediately recognized Chu Zixi and hurriedly walked down the court, bowing and saying, "Your Highness pays respect to Princess Zhaoyang!" Upon hearing this, the other yamen runners all knelt down and said, "Your Highness pays respect to Princess Zhaoyang!"
"No need to be polite."
Chu Zixi walked to the side and sat down, "Bring him in."
Yuda and Yuer dragged Qian Youwang and his men into the lobby.
Mu Shan's face looked ugly. He had just heard what the yamen runner said: this man in the Qian family was really not a human being.
After listening, Chu Zixi frowned, looked at the people on the ground, and said coldly: "You said that this child was abducted and sold to Beidi, do you have any evidence?"
Chu Zixi looked at Mu Shan, a trace of displeasure flashing in her eyes: "As the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture, you were totally unaware that the people had lost their children?"
Mu Shan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said quickly, "Princess, calm down. It was my negligence."
