Chapter 111 Li Caiju Confession
Chapter 111 Li Caiju Confession
Li Caiju was really a tough guy. She used five or six kinds of torture instruments and was bullied by five or six people, but she refused to reveal a word.
It was not until she was threatened with burning both sides of her face that she began to get scared. Then she was threatened with killing her two children. Only then did the vicious woman finally break down and tell her everything she knew.
Seven or eight years ago, someone found her and helped her get rid of Zhou Cheng and become the richest person in Lincheng, allowing her to do whatever she wanted in Lincheng.
In other urban areas, as long as she can accomplish what the other party asks, she can be allowed to be appropriately arrogant and domineering, as long as it is not a big deal.
So she poisoned Zhou Cheng's original wife to death, and she became his principal wife. With the help of noble people, Zhou Cheng's business grew bigger and bigger.
Then Li Caiju secretly pushed more and more women to Zhou Cheng. An old man, no longer the handsome and suave man he used to be, was not worthy to be with her at all.
When Zhou Cheng was addicted to women, Li Caiju intervened in the business, took the opportunity to seize power and became the real boss. Zhou Cheng was angry but dared not say anything.
He knew that the person behind Li Caiju was not a simple person, so he could only turn a blind eye and pretend that he knew nothing. Anyway, he had already hidden a lot of money.
His eldest son will not be harmed, as the couple have different intentions.
In recent years, she has had close contacts with other wives of officials and wealthy businessmen, and she has to report any news she gets in a timely manner.
No one doubted that she was the one who arranged the spies, and many former minor officials have now become high-ranking officials.
She knew everything about the officials' families. She met Zhang Shurou three or four years ago.
At that time, Shangguan Yan was just a small deputy general, but he was able to work beside the general and obtain first-hand information.
Zhang Shurou is the great-granddaughter of the old lady's cousin in the general's mansion. She is deeply loved by the old lady. Five years ago, she stayed in the mansion under the pretext of accompanying the old lady.
Zhang Shurou's real purpose was not to be a concubine, but to marry Shangguan Yan. However, Shangguan Yan didn't even look at her, so she had no chance of becoming his wife, let alone a concubine.
Li Caiju agreed to help her on the condition that she could provide useful information and win over Shangguan Yan to work for the noble.
Zhang Shurou knew very well that she could not get close to Shangguan Yan at all, and it was impossible for her to find out any information, let alone win Shangguan Yan over.
It happened that Shangguan Yan came back a few years ago, but Li Junlan still avoided her. She found Li Caiju and got the drugs given by the noble.
I don’t know if Shangguan Yan drank too much or Zhang Shurou gave her too much drug, but Shangguan Yan slept like a dead pig and couldn’t get anything done.
Zhang Shurou could only pretend that the matter was settled. Afterwards, with the help of the old lady, she naturally became a concubine and could also help the old lady manage the general's mansion.
She was the most popular person at the time. On the surface, the old lady was the one in charge of the general's mansion, but in private, the servants only followed Zhang Shurou's lead.
Li Junlan became less and less visible, and Zhang Shurou almost forgot about her.
It was not until Shangguan Yan was granted the title of Great General of Protecting the Nation that Zhang Shurou realized that she had to become the general's wife in order to have more opportunities to meet more noble people.
So she contacted Li Caiju again. When Li Caiju learned that the wife of this great general of the nation was actually her sister Li Junlan, whom she had looked down upon and even hated since childhood.
She was so jealous that her heart ached. Since Zhang Shurou wanted to get rid of Li Junlan, she was happy to see it happen and gave Zhang Shurou the secret medicine of Xiyue that was provided by the noble lady.
This medicine is colorless and tasteless. If there is no antidote within seven days after poisoning, the person will die. I didn't expect that bitch Li Junlan was so lucky that she couldn't die. It must be because Zhang Shurou was useless. Maybe the dosage of the medicine was not enough.
She was so angry that she couldn't sleep for several nights. She had originally gone to the general's mansion specifically to see if she was dead, but she didn't expect that bitch to be living so comfortably. She didn't get any good results in front of the general's mansion.
She was in a bad mood during that period. The old man in her family took in more and more concubines. If she had not lost her feelings for the old man, she would have killed all those concubines.
I was in a bad mood and went shopping, and I actually met a delicate woman. If I was in a good mood, it would be fine, but the person next to her was the man she didn't want before.
It would be a waste not to beat the person who bumped into him, just to let the man know the consequences of forgetting her. He has been the prefect of Lincheng for two years, and he knew that she was in Lincheng, but he pretended not to know and did not know her.
He said so nice things back then, that he would marry her in this life. But now he has a wife and children, and he has forgotten her a long time ago. It's a pity that she still occasionally thinks of how stupid he was back then.
Yes, she was unwilling, jealous, and angry. She sent someone to bribe the maid to poison the woman. Cheng Rui did not deserve the love of others because he was a hypocrite.
Li Caiju laughed wildly when she said this.
"That woman must be dead, right? Cheng Rui, you deserve it!"
"You are talking about the wife of Prefect Cheng, right? She is not dead and is doing well!" The lawyer answered while taking notes.
"What did you say? She's not dead? Impossible, absolutely impossible! I saw her drink the whole cup of tea." Li Caiju stared at the master with her eyes wide open.
"What does it have to do with me if you don't believe me? Tell me who gave you the poison!"
"Tell me, tell me why she didn't die? Tell me, who saved her? Cheng Rui? Cheng Rui loved her so much? Didn't he love me? He loved me!" Li Caiju grabbed her hair with both hands and talked to herself.
"Didn't the wife of the General who Protects the Nation also survive? Coincidentally, it was your sister, the wife of the General who Protects the Nation, who saved Madam Cheng." The lawyer frowned at this crazy woman, a stupid woman who couldn't even live a good life.
"Impossible, the noble said that there is no antidote for this medicine."
"What noble person? You just believed what they said. Now they are alive and well.
Tell me! Who is this noble man and how did you meet him? "This woman is so naive.
“The noble only asked me to meet him in a private room in Juxing Tower, and we were separated by a screen, so I didn’t know who he was.
The only person who knows the handover is a man with a scar on his face, sometimes a sissy man.
I have already told you everything. I really don’t know anything else. Please don’t kill my children.”
Li Caiju knelt on the ground and kowtowed continuously. After the lawyer wrote the last word, he asked Li Caiju to sign it, then handed the transcript to the man sitting in the darkness outside the prison.
The man stood up, took the transcript and walked out of the prison. In the light of the lantern in front of the door, he looked at the transcript on the paper and sneered. The person behind this really thought that their Ministry of Justice was a decoration.
He was so crazy that he placed pawns, spies, and bribed servants and concubines in all officials' homes. Everyone knew that if you could place orders, so could others?
However, others are just observing. What they want is to know themselves and their enemies, rather than killing people at will. This person does whatever he wants and does not care about the people of the world.
"Husband, it's going to rain soon. Our family is waiting for you to come back for dinner." The woman's gentle voice seemed to melt people's hearts.
"You came even though you knew it was going to rain. It's so windy, and you didn't even put on more clothes. Look how cold your hands are. Eating is not a big deal. I'll be back late, so I can just heat it up when the time comes."
"Husband, have you forgotten? Today is your birthday! It's summer now! I don't need to wear so many clothes. Last time you asked me to wear them, I got a small rash all over my body."
"It's better to have a little rash than to be sick. Birthdays happen every year." The man kissed the woman's face. He believed that there was a kind of cold that his wife was afraid of.
"Husband, there are so many people here!" The woman shyly buried her head in the man's arms.
“It’s not like they haven’t seen it.”
The master looked down at the stone slab on the ground and said, "Today's stone slab looks particularly good."
The jailer looked up at the sky: "The stars are so bright tonight!"
