Laifu didn't dare to breathe, "Master, even if they run again, they can't get out of Jiangnan. You are the lord of Jiangnan. Let your men investigate carefully. They will be found within three days."

Magistrate Lin was furious, his chest heaving up and down. He didn't say anything for a while, but Laifu said a few more words, his heart pounding.

"Go to the station!" Magistrate Lin shook his sleeves, and the sound of hurried footsteps spread far away, and Laifu followed him and retreated.

The station was silent. Chang An had already changed out of his bloody clothes and put on ordinary guard equipment. He deliberately smeared his face with mud to hide his true face.

I just received the order from the master this morning, telling him to stay calm in Chang'an and stay in seclusion for the time being, waiting for the prince to send him.

In the westernmost tent, Li Ce heard the heavy footsteps outside. He opened his eyes, and the next moment he met the eyes of Magistrate Lin who walked in.

"Master Lin, you are well." Li Ce greeted him cheerfully. He looked behind Magistrate Lin, but did not see Gu Siyuan.

"Not one will be left alive."

There was contempt in Magistrate Lin's tone. He had never looked down upon these bandits before, they were a bunch of low-class people who were just digging for food.

At the end of the day, he was tricked by him. If he hadn't reacted in time, he wouldn't have known what the situation would have been.

Li Ce laughed twice when he heard the sentence was pronounced. Since he had become such a heinous person and had done many things that went against his conscience, he knew that such a day would come sooner or later.

The rabbit dies and the dog cooks, and the situation changes.

"Master Lin, the higher you climb, the harder you fall. If you think about the sword in your hand, you have to see if it will hurt you..."

Laifu stepped forward quickly and covered Li Ce's words. The unfinished words were forever blocked in his palm.

A faint smell of blood filled the tent.

——Li Ce is dead.

Chang'an took advantage of no one's attention and opened the curtain to take a look. His heart sank, and he quickly looked away, pretending that nothing happened.

Magistrate Lin wanted to kill them all. He had no way to retreat. He could no longer surrender to Gu Siyuan. Even if he surrendered, death would be waiting for him.

The people in Xu County were unaware of the changes in the sky above their heads. The blood stains on the pier that day had already been washed away by people in the dark of night. Except for the lingering weird smell in the air, ordinary people had no idea about the upcoming turmoil. Know.

A group of people put up portraits in the city with great fanfare, looking for Gu Siyuan and his party.

Qin Zhongwan was dressed as a peasant woman in coarse linen clothes. Her originally fair face was deliberately darkened several times and was dotted with fine pockmarks.

At first glance, it just seems a bit ugly.

She squeezed the bamboo basket in her hand tightly. The portraits were clearly hers, Gu Siyuan, and Mr. Zhao. Qin Zhongwan didn't dare to stay here any longer. After looking at it for a few times, he turned around and left.

"I'm here to deliver food."

"Knock, knock," Qin Zhongwan knocked on the door of the small courtyard twice. He heard a familiar voice inside and opened the door.

Gu Siyuan stuck out his head and pulled Qin Zhongwan in.

As she walked, she opened the cloth covering the bamboo basket, and inside were several coarse-grain steamed buns.

Coarse grains are three cents cheaper than white flour buns, and they have been eating them for two days.

"We don't have much money, and we can't sell the things we have on us. We can't even afford steamed buns."

I don't know how many spies were stationed by Magistrate Lin in the city to search them secretly. Qin Zhongwan also saw a group of people knocking on every door openly to search for suspicious persons.
