The Comeback of the Charming Farmer's Wife Chapter 2181 - 2183: Cui Yong, Your Child Is Here

Just that there is another child being held hostage, otherwise Lele, with his cleverness, could have escaped on his own.

"Has he sent another ssage?"

"Not yet."

"Do you know where he lives?"

"I know, in the broken temple outside the city." This detail was naturally cleared by Ye Er.

Upon hearing this, Ye Yi imdiately kicked him, "Are you out of your mind? Knowing where the young master is, how can you not go and rescue him?"

"It’s not that I won’t save him!" Ye Er was equally exasperated, "You have no idea how despicable Prefectural Magistrate Cui is. He hasn’t just captured our young master, there are several more children, and these children aren’t all kept in one place but chained in pairs, surrounded by a circle of firewood drenched in tung oil. It’s easy for us to rescue the young master, but once he moves, those people will kill the children imdiately. The young master disagrees with us acting recklessly."

"Are you stupid? Why should we care about other people’s children? Our responsibility is our own master."

"Enough, stop arguing." Ye Zi’an spoke up, "Lele is right in not allowing action because if you move, unless you rescue all the other children, even if one dies, it will be used against him and in the future."

"Alright, we’ll head out in two hours." Ye Zi’an thought for a mont and added, "First, let’s get Prefectural Magistrate Cui’s two legitimate sons out. Also, have soone prepare water and hide nearby."

These people have already set the execution for the beginning of next month, so Prefectural Magistrate Cui naturally needs to act now. He has to preserve a thread of the Cui family’s bloodline.

But does such a person even deserve to have a bloodline? After ruining countless families’ children, do they still deserve their own bloodline?

The broken temple outside the city is always a good hiding place.

Prefectural Magistrate Cui naturally would choose this place.

"Cui Yong, your child is here!"

At the broken temple, Ye Zi’an spoke directly of his intentions, startling Cui Yong.

"Tsk tsk, I thought Marquis Changning was so selfless, but it turns out he’s just ordinary."

"Bah!" Ye Yi sneered, "If you weren’t so despicable and didn’t capture so many children, would our Lord Marquis act like this?"

Looking around, two children sat tied together on the ground, surrounded by a circle of firewood, the sll of tung oil perating the air.

Counting them, there were ten children tied up, arranged in five piles, with each pile watched by two people holding torches, while Lele was held close by Prefectural Magistrate Cui.

"Ha, they’re just little bastards, so what if I captured them?" Prefectural Magistrate Cui sneered, "Release my sons, or else I’ll burn these little brats."

"Give the person in your hand first." Ye Zi’an pulled over Prefectural Magistrate Cui’s two legitimate sons, "Free my son and I’ll give you one son, remove the firewood from the other ten children and I’ll give you the other son. Otherwise, today, I’ll risk losing one son, just to ensure the three of you die here."

"You!" Prefectural Magistrate Cui gritted his teeth, "No, send both my sons over, then I’ll let your son go. As for the other children, they’ll only be released after we leave the Liangchuan Prefecture."

"What if I say no?"

"No?" Prefectural Magistrate Cui imdiately shouted, "Light the first pile of wood for ."

Just as Prefectural Magistrate Cui’s n were about to ignite the fire, suddenly several people erged from all directions, each carrying a bucket.
