The moment this person arrived, the crowd burst into an uproar. Now that the victim and the person who had been framed was here, faced with ironclad evidence, his legs gave way and he fell to his knees. Before Liu Changsheng could use his punishment, he had already confessed all of his crimes.

As this man's surname was Liu, his family name was Liu, and since he had no real work to do, he did not have a stable source of income, therefore, he often stealthily made friends with others to extort money, and after a while, he also became famous in the capital's hoodlum world. He also had some little hoodlums around him, which they all called him Third Brother Liu, and since he did not have any regular income, he consulted with his little brothers, and found out that the only thing he was proficient in was playing with money. As it was opened privately, without being reported to the government, without being qualified to operate it and without paying taxes, they were afraid of being caught. As a result, the gambling office was opened in the Eastern Slum District, where the city guards were too lazy to patrol, near the homes of the dead. Earlier, he woke up a few families in the middle of the night and tried to reason with them because the gambling house was too noisy. What kind of person was Liu San? Naturally, they did not want to take this risk. In the end, the few of them discussed and decided that when Liu San opened his stall the next day, he would bring his catchers to catch someone.

The catcher looked at the scene and saw that the whistleblower was right. Moreover, there were still dozens of taels of silver on the table that he had not collected in time. As soon as he felt happy, he gave them some. Then he took the money and left with the guards. After wandering around for so many years, Liu San naturally knew that money could cause trouble. He immediately gave the 100 taels of silver that he had taken away when he was in a mess to the leader and also promised 50% to 50% of his profits from the gambling den. Only then was he able to safely leave and also asked who gave them the news.

He was so angry that he swore to himself that he would tear these people into a thousand pieces! However, after following them for a few days, he realized that their work and rest were completely different. If they tried to take revenge one by one for too long, it would inevitably expose their flaws. However, the heavens had given him a chance. It turned out that after the few of them received the silver from the constable, they all subsidized the family's income.

However, they felt that it was a pity to hand it all over just like that. They agreed to go to Luo Lingwei's hotpot restaurant together to have a taste of the famous, secret, young, and tender lamb pot.

When Liu San found out about this, he immediately made meticulous arrangements. First, he went to the pharmacy to buy arsenic and sleeping grass, then he called a few of his younger brothers over and took the opportunity to knock them out after they had finished eating the lamb pot and drank the wine until they were completely unconscious. Then he used the funnel to feed them some soup with arsenic, and after feeding them a jug of wine to cover the smell of the soup, they dragged them to the side of the road.

The few of them were already drunk. Now that they had been given the bewitching soup, they felt even more drowsy and dispirited. All they wanted to do was go home and rest, but they did not know that their lives were at stake.

However, when they returned home, they walked unsteadily and reeked of alcohol. They thought they had drunk too much and did not expect too much, so they fell to the ground and died. In order to cover up the truth, Liu San used the remainder of the Bewitching Soup to make the few people he helped faint and hide them in a abandoned house, setting up the illusion that they had died in battle. Just as he was arranging all this, Gao Da happened to be passing by. Liu San knew that Gao Dazhi was an unskilled thief. In order to prevent Gao Da from finding out anything, he told him that there was a business to be done at the east side of the city.

This was the reason why Ye Lianhe mentioned that Gao Dazhi had followed them in right after their deaths.

After everyone heard Liu San's words, they were shocked to the point of sweating cold sweat. They thought to themselves, "This scoundrel is actually so cruel and merciless, killing seven to eight people in a row." Gao Gao was also extremely afraid. If he did not pay attention to anything when he intruded into the broken house, he would have been lying there today with his stomach cut open.

These words could fool others, but it could not fool Ye Lianhe and Liu Changsheng. They all knew who was behind all of this. However, because the responsibility was too great, if the two of them were dragged out, it would most likely incur the wrath of the people. At that time, if there were any riots, it would inevitably become a bloody scene.

Therefore, Nightingale turned a blind eye to this. Hearing that his relatives had died in such a ridiculous manner, the victim couldn't help but gnash his teeth at the murderer. If it weren't for the bailiff stopping him, Liu San would probably have been eaten alive by these victims.

"What a thief!" The Son of Heaven actually dared to kill someone! He still dares to bring trouble to the Duke's Mansion! It was an unpardonable crime, a heinous crime! Today, I will sentence you to forty big shots before making a decision! "You aren't convinced?" When Liu San heard this, his eyes were filled with panic as if he was looking for someone.

Liu Changsheng naturally knew who he was looking for, he quickly ordered the bailiffs to come forward and hit the board, Liu San was crying and screaming, Liu Changsheng's heart was not good, he quickly ordered people to cover his mouth, and a few bailiffs immediately started beating him up, the 40 boards went down, and when he looked again, he was no longer breathing.
