When the soldiers guarding the city saw these suspicious prisoners, they immediately arrested them and sent them to the government office. The old master did not even need to torture them. They would be wholly accounted for with a slap of the gavel.
Fortunately, Ji Shuisheng and the others were faster than these prisoners. They had already passed them, and the government only discovered these prisoners.
Fortunately, they met a high-ranking magistrate. He judged that the person who kidnapped Xing Ruhai would not go to Jingshi Dao and must have run south, so he sent people to chase him to the south.
The killed government runners were also dug out, and more than a dozen corpses were placed on the ground.
This could be considered a significant case in the Great Xia Kingdom. Because Xing Ruhai was kidnapped, the Wan Clan quickly received the news. They then blamed this matter on the Emperor.
