The Princess's Deadly Daily Life
Chapter 107 What kind of monsters are you?
"Your Highness, spare your life, Your Highness, spare your life!"
The person sitting on the seat was furious, while the cooks below were trembling in fear and kowtowing and begging for mercy.
When Li Xixiao saw that all the thieves had been caught and tied up without missing a single one, he secretly vented his anger on behalf of Amber and Chu Yiyi.
"How many people have you abducted?" Li Xun said this word by word while gritting his teeth, his palms clenched so tightly that the muscles in his palms bulged slightly.
This was the first time that Li Xiying saw his fourth uncle so angry. It seemed that the evil deeds of these people had made his fourth uncle so angry that he could not control himself.
"We were blinded by greed and only abducted that young girl. We will change our ways and never do the same again!" The man with the kitchen knife was sweating profusely. After making eye contact with the other chefs, he tried every possible way to make excuses.
The young lady they were talking about was Wei Yu.
Last night Wei Yu told Li Xiying that she was willing to be the bait to lure out the thieves, and then Li Xian responded from a distance and appeared in time to protect her from being harmed.
Li Xi was angry and scared. He looked around but didn't see Wei Yu. He didn't know if she was injured.
If she had to gamble Wei Yu's innocence because of a few evil thieves, she really shouldn't have done that! Li Xiying couldn't help but look at her fourth uncle, who was furious. She couldn't help but feel even more regretful. Why did she let her heart be blinded by greed? If she lost her wife and her army, wouldn't she be willing to die?
She took the whip, walked up to them, and shouted angrily: "If you are caught, just say there is only one. If you are not caught, how many are there? Tell the truth, or I will whip you!"
When they looked up and saw Li Xiying, they whipped him. Suddenly, the man with the kitchen knife was kicked in the chest. Before he could see who was trying to steal him, he was kicked in the face again. In an instant, blood gushed out of his nose.
The rest of the people in the pit were not spared. By the time they reacted, they had fallen to the ground, with the women's shoe prints of varying depths on their faces.
"Open your dog eyes and see who I am." She grabbed the man with the kitchen knife by the hair and forced him to look at him in horror, just like she was dragged by him to the haystack last night.
At that time, these people saw that she was resisting fiercely, so they beat her up with fists and feet, kicking her all over her body...
But now they know how to judge the situation and dare not even fart, but just kowtow and beg for mercy.
Li Xiwei whipped them a few times and made them raise their heads.
Everyone had a swollen nose and face, torn skin and flesh, and their teeth were chattering, but Li Xiying felt that this was far less than one-tenth of the damage suffered by the victimized women.
When they saw that Chu Yiyi was also the one who beat people, they could only grit their teeth and deny that they had hurt her. "Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Spare me! I have never seen this crazy woman before. She framed us. You saw it too. She started beating and kicking us. How dare we provoke her?"
“Really?” Chu Yiyi pointed at the man with the kitchen knife, her fingers slashing through the air one by one, “A few days ago, you showed up at the door of the guest house, knocked me out and took me away when my maids and servants were not around. When I woke up, if I resisted, I would be beaten even more cruelly and... insulted!”
"The evidence is solid, and the government will come to capture them alive soon. The law states: 'For those who engage in human trafficking, the principal offender must be sentenced to death by hanging, while the accomplice shall be given a lighter sentence.' If you confess the truth and give out the main culprit behind the scenes, perhaps you can get a lighter sentence." Although Li Xun was angry, he still refrained from taking their lives, but just said with a hint of meaning.
The shopkeeper who was locked in the side room was dizzy with hunger at this time. In the past two days, Li Zhen had not been in a hurry to interrogate him, but was just waiting for this moment.
The cooks looked at each other, and the man with the kitchen knife was about to grit his teeth and hold on. After all, this little evidence could only be considered an attempted crime, not irrefutable evidence.
But the man washing vegetables was obviously guilty. He ignored the look on the man with the kitchen knife's face and could not help but said, "Yes, there is a principal offender! It's Manager Liu. We have listened to him all these years. We did whatever he told us to do. We cooked in the tavern during the day and made contacts with traffickers at night..."
"Yes, business is getting harder and harder in this world. Abandoned babies can be seen everywhere, but young ladies are hard to find!"
So they cried and complained about everything, and before they knew it, they had told everything. Little did they know that there was a man behind them who was tied up and gagged, watching them expose him, Manager Liu.
Shopkeeper Liu was so hungry, exhausted and angry that he wanted to rush over and tear their mouths apart!
Li Jian saw that the time had come and signaled the steward to untie the cloth tied around the shopkeeper's mouth. His mouth was split open by the cloth, leaving deep wounds. He was finally able to move his tongue, and he began to curse with a snarl in anger: "You traitors, I've been so good to you all the time, but you sold me out so easily. What good can you get? We'll all die together!"
While he was cursing, Li Xiying discovered a clue.
She approached the shopkeeper Liu and saw a layer of skin on the side of his face. At her signal, the steward immediately tore off the skin, peeling off one side together with the middle part of his face.
Everyone was shocked, including Li Zhen, who saw that his face was rugged and jagged, his mouth was crooked and he didn't look like a human.
"See if they are such people!" Li Xiying said, and several servants rushed forward to tear off the face of the chef.
Sure enough, after a short while, the ground was covered with fake leather.
Those scammers looked weirder than each other, and just looking at them made one's stomach start to well up.
"Who are you?" Li Zhen slammed the table and shouted angrily upon seeing this.
Chu Yiyi was even more dumbfounded. Amber, who had been trying hard to endure the discomfort, had fainted from fright and had to be carried back to Langfang by Li Xixiao. The other maids didn't dare to look over there again.
"What kind of monsters are you?" Li Xiying asked in surprise.
"We are not monsters, we are just poisoned! We...we are originally from Yanqi, and we came here just to make a living!" The Dicai man burst into tears and his heart collapsed.
"If you really want to make a living and don't harm good women, you wouldn't have ended up in this situation." Li Xiying said this and suddenly remembered the person who came to see her last time disguised as a maid from the prime minister's mansion. Naturally, she was also one of their accomplices wearing masks.
"The art of disguise is truly miraculous."
After the traffickers gave up their accomplices, they signed and sealed their accounts, admitting to all the crimes. Soon, government officials came in person to escort the prisoners to prison.
Chu Yiyi got beaten and vented her anger, but the damage she suffered could never be undone, and she couldn't kill them in a bright and clear world; but when she heard that if it wasn't hanging, the worst that would happen was exile thousands of miles away to serve in the army, she no longer had any objections.
Li Xixiao looked at the face skin on the ground, picked it up and took a look at it, and was really surprised.
It looks like animal skin, but what animal skin can be so realistically similar to human skin?
The palace steward saw through it with his all-seeing eyes, picked up a piece and felt it, then said in confusion: "This skin looks like the skin of a pig, that is, a black pig. Although the hair is black, it turns white after being scraped off! However, the craftsmanship is amazing. These skins must fit the skin, be thick where they should be thick, and be extremely thin where they should be thin so that they are not broken, so that people can hardly see it. It really tests the craftsmanship!"
As he said this, he touched the back of the mask and smelled a faint smell of fish glue. After some analysis, Li Xiying realized that there were people with such needs.
It is really puzzling that they try every possible way to pretend to be normal people, but after becoming normal people they choose to do those evil things.
Just when he was about to express his feelings to his uncle, he suddenly met his fierce eyes. Li Xiying thought that he was still angry, so he kindly helped his uncle to sort out his emotions and laughed, "I didn't expect that in less than a day, all the accomplices could be captured!"
"Is it gratifying?" Li Xuan's expression remained unchanged, which made her feel weak.
It was at this time that Li Xiying realized that her fourth uncle didn't seem to be angry just because of the crimes of the human traffickers. It seemed that a little bit of his resentment was directed at her, his niece...
