Capítulo 608: Clue (3)

"We've asked the old people in their neighbors and learned from them that after the families of the five of them became rich, they returned to their hometowns one after another.

Song Jingchen rubbed his temples. Actually, the old prince was also a witness, but he couldn't convince the public with his bad deeds.
