After being reborn, I was won over by the heartfelt words of my loyal bodyguard.

Chapter 393: Begging for mercy

After they told Prime Minister Xu about the matter, he was naturally furious. He never expected things to develop to this point.

He kicked all of them. After being kicked, they all knelt down and begged for mercy, but there was nothing they could do.

“Drag them all down and give them twenty strokes of the cane, then lock them in this dungeon. We’ll make that plan after Miss wakes up.”

On the other hand, in the Princess's residence, Gan Luo had naturally offended Xu Jinxin. Gan Luo found Xu Jinxin's actions somewhat unbelievable at this time, never expecting her to do such things. It truly surprised Gan Luo.

"I never imagined that Xu Jinxin would have such a big argument with the Prime Minister here, and almost lose her chastity. It's quite amusing to me. Has Xu Jinxin already been taken back to the Prime Minister's residence?"

Gan Luo naturally questioned the man in black in front of him. The man in black told Gan Luo that he had found the man. Gan Luo then pondered whether or not to go and see the man.

After much deliberation, Gan Luo ultimately decided not to go see this person.

"Alright, alright, I won't join in this fun. After all, I still have some things to take care of. How is Young Master Shangguan doing lately? There are still people following him around."

Unexpectedly, the man in black told Gan Luo that someone had been following Young Master Shangguan, but they didn't really know who they were. They were just thinking about what to do next.

"In that case, let these people follow them. Anyway, I believe the truth will eventually come out, and one day I will catch them all. The only thing I am certain of right now is the actions of that official."

This official, who was actually a third-rank official, had acted so rashly, which showed his dissatisfaction with Shangguan Mufeng. If he were satisfied with Shangguan Mufeng, he wouldn't have done such a thing.

"Go and summon all these people from before to me. I want to ask them some questions."

These people are naturally the ones hiding in the shadows, and while they appear to be this official's men on the surface, they are not actually his.

Gan Luo's task now is simple: to get these people to put on a grand show for him. He has already sent people to investigate where their families are. The investigation revealed that their families are being held in a dilapidated house on the outskirts of the city.

Next to this was a rather luxurious courtyard. Some people were locked in dilapidated houses, while others were locked in the courtyard.

More importantly, there are many people guarding this place, and it will definitely take some time to rescue them all.

Even if Gan Luo came to this courtyard, he might not be able to rescue them all, since everyone here is a very powerful person.

They were all talking at once, discussing the matter.

"At this moment, I really want to know when I can leave this place. After all, I've been here for eight or nine days. If I continue to stay like this, I feel like I'm going crazy."

Staying in this place is genuinely a bit boring. Besides, I haven't experienced anything new, and everyone just stands there like wooden figures, which is quite numbing.

The men in black around them observed for a while, and then they realized that the men were really insane because they had tied all these people up with ropes and made them eat like dogs.

Gan Luo happened to arrive at this place, and these people were about to greet him when, unexpectedly, Gan Luo made a shushing gesture.

"I naturally hope that you can stay here for a day, that is, during this day, see if these people will take turns to rest and be replaced by the next batch of people."

They all did exactly as Gan Luo had instructed, and stayed there. They were all very curious whether the men in black knew that their families had suffered such treatment.

If they knew their families were here, they would have tried to rescue them all.

It was at this moment that Gan Luo decided to meet this official.

Gan Luo then returned to the Princess's residence. Upon seeing Gan Luo's return, Lin Fengmian immediately draped a mink cloak over Gan Luo's shoulders.

Gan Luo then led Lin Fengmian to the official's home and gently knocked on the door.

The butler naturally didn't realize who Lin Fengmian was.

It was at this moment that the butler, clearly growing impatient, began to speak. "Where did you come from? Let me give you a piece of advice: you'd better leave right now, or our master will be furious, and you'll be in for a world of trouble!"

The steward's fierce appearance displeased Gan Luo, who looked up at him with a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes and drew his sword without hesitation, placing it against the steward's neck.

She stabbed the steward in the abdomen at that moment, and the steward fell to the ground, but Gan Luo's sword did not hit a vital spot.

"The thing I want to tell you now is not to court death here, otherwise I will definitely send you to the Yellow Springs."

The topics they were discussing here had undoubtedly been overheard by everyone else in the mansion.
