My Father Is Definitely Possessed-Chapter 369 - 202: Lu Shiran Ran Away from Home

But this one turned out fine after all, he actually stood against them!

"Why are you looking at me?" Li Hengsheng noticed the people in the Inspection Mansion were all staring at him, frowned, and said, "Lock him up!"

"Ah, yes!"

Everyone hurried to imprison Mu Haoming in the dungeon.

In the dungeon.

The empty dungeon had only one room with people, which was where Mu Xiong and those underlings from last night were.

Mu Xiong was detained here, but he wasn’t the least bit panicked.

He merely looked at the two guards with a cold sneer.

"You two scoundrels, let me go while you still can. If you wait until people from the Mu Mansion arrive and then release me, I’ll break your legs!"

At this moment, the two guards were trembling with fear; they were genuinely afraid of the Mu Mansion!

"Master Xiong, please don’t make it hard for us. We’re just drawing a salary. If we let you go, how will we support our families?" 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

One of the guards spoke almost in tears.

"Hmph, once we’re out, your families can reunite in hell." Another member from the Mu Mansion sneered coldly.

"It looks like the time’s about right." At this point, Mu Xiong looked at the sunlight coming from outside and smiled, saying, "My people from the Mu Mansion must have already arrived at the Inspection Mansion. Soon, the cell door will open, and it will be your judgment day!"

"No way?" one guard said to the other.

At that moment, the prison door suddenly opened.

This scared the two guards into a shiver.

"Hahahaha!"

Everyone burst into laughter.

"They’ve come to rescue us," Mu Xiong also said with a smile.

However, at this moment, two guards came down, supporting a person, and said to the two guards, "Come over, lend a hand, and lock this person in the cell, keep a strict watch!"

"Uh, yes."

The two hurried forward.

Wait.

How come this person looks so familiar?

"Isn’t this Mu Haoming from the Mu Mansion?" The two were shocked.

How did he end up like this?

At this moment, even Mu Xiong and others recognized the familiar person. When they realized it was Mu Haoming, they were utterly astonished.

How did Mu Haoming get captured and put in the dungeon?

Mu Haoming’s strength was at the Postnatal Peak!

How could he have been beaten like this?

The two guards, seeing this, also chuckled and said, "This guy caused a huge scene at the Inspection Mansion and was beaten into this pathetic state by our Inspector with just one move. You all missed quite a spectacle."

"One move?"

The two guards couldn’t believe what they were hearing.

"You’re talking nonsense!" Mu Xiong also exclaimed in anger.

A Postnatal Peak being defeated by a Postnatal Perfection in one move.

Who’d believe that?

He admitted Li Hengsheng’s strength was formidable, much better than his, but to say he could defeat Mu Haoming, that he couldn’t believe.

Yet how to explain the current situation?

Now the two guards felt more confident.

With even Mu Haoming captured, what does a little Mu Xiong amount to?

Wu Santong and his men posted the tax exemption notice where notices were usually displayed.

Seeing an announcement being posted by the Inspection Mansion, many citizens around were curious but dared not approach to look.

Once Wu Santong and his companions finished posting and left, the crowd quickly gathered around.

The worry was etched on their faces.

For they thought it must be yet another new tax imposed by the Inspection Mansion.

Current taxes were already driving them to despair.

"What’s written here, what new tax are they imposing now? The new Inspector has just taken office, and he’s already imposing taxes again, how are we supposed to live!"

An illiterate old man sighed softly, wearing a worried face.

But quite a few literate people pushed forward to take a look, and the more content they read on the notice, the more surprised their expressions became.

"What? Another tax?"

Someone couldn’t help but ask.

A young man who looked like a scholar exclaimed in shock, "It’s not a tax notice, it’s actually a tax exemption notice!"

"What? Flour tax?"

The old man exclaimed, "Wasn’t there a rice tax before? How come now there’s even a tax on flour!"

"Not flour tax, it’s tax exemption!"

The scholar excitedly stepped forward and said, "The notice says, starting today, various miscellaneous taxes are exempted. Besides the necessary normal taxes, all other taxes are abolished!"

The crowd was immediately abuzz at this statement!

How could this be?

Amid the crowd, one man frowned deeply after reading it, then turned and quickly left.

The entire Tushan City erupted in excitement that day.

The commoners were all discussing the tax issues.

Meanwhile, the Mu Mansion and the Hua family were furious!

The Hua family heard that Li Hengsheng not only did not increase the land weight tax as they requested, but also canceled all the taxes proposed by the Hua family before!

This enraged the head of the Hua family, Hua Xianggu!

After hearing the report from his subordinates, Hua Xianggu felt Li Hengsheng was deliberately against their family.

Initially, Hua Zheliu spent thirteen thousand taels of silver at the Inspection Mansion, which Hua Xianggu found strange. After secretly discussing with the Mu Mansion, he realized they had been played by Li Hengsheng.

But Hua Xianggu didn’t mind too much. In his view, Li Hengsheng was nothing but a greedy little man, and he was inclined to let it slide, but to his surprise, after taking the money, he was still going against their Hua family!
