Xiao Hanzheng knew that Mo Qingling was not a person who was greedy for merits.

He could take credit for this, but he felt that Mo Qingling was not suitable to be involved too deeply.

After all, Mo Qingling's foundation was still too shallow.

Even with the protection of the emperor and the crown prince, it was easy for someone to set up a trap to deal with him.

Therefore, it was more suitable for the emperor to send someone else to investigate and deal with it.

Mo Qingling placed the things back into the wooden box and held them in his arms.

He instructed the bailiffs lead, "Bring all these people back to the county yamen and ask for their identities and home addresses. Inform their families to come and pick them up."

The bailiff lead replied respectfully, "Yes!"

Then, the group of people were brought out of the basement.

When they saw the sunlight outside, many of them were so happy that they cried, especially the youths and girls.

Eldest Young Master Wu was pinned to the ground by two bailiffs with their fork rods.

When he saw them bringing the people out, his expression did not change much.

However, when he saw the wooden box in Mo Qingling's hand, his expression changed completely, and cold sweat broke out from his back.

He only had one thought in his mind. They actually found this. It was over!

Mo Qingling looked at Eldest Young Master Wu and instructed the bailiffs, "The Wu family poisoned Tongsheng Shi and tried to silence him after they were discovered.

"Take all the men of the Wu family back to the county office and lock them up.

"The women are grounded in the Wu residence and are not allowed to leave."

"Yes!"

Hearing Mo Qingling's words, Eldest Young Master Wu suddenly raised his head and looked over.

He did not expect Mo Qingling to arrest them for this crime.

Did that mean that after Mo Qingling saw the things in the wooden box, he did not dare to offend some of the higher-ups, so he was prepared to reduce a major problem to a minor one, and then a minor one to naught?

He could not help but be optimistic.

Mo Qingling saw his expression and guessed what he was thinking.

He shook his head speechlessly.

He just did not want to alert the enemy.

Soon, Eldest Young Master Wu and the servants of the Wu family were all taken away.

The thugs were temporarily locked in the basement.

They were waiting to be brought back to the county office at night to avoid exposing themselves or causing the people to make wild guesses.

Master Wu, who was leading the other bailiffs to Fourth Son Shi's room to interrogate him, was also taken away.

The other males of the Wu family were also taken away without leaving a single one behind.
