Subsequently, Zhao Guang was certain that Yu Laosan had truly been imprisoned, thus ridding the area of a major scourge.
However, Zhao Guang really didn't know what happened afterward.
Although Yu Laosan always schemed against others, setting traps to get people addicted, he was merely the one setting up these traps. He had never touched the drugs himself, not even handling them.
Therefore, even when someone developed an addiction, no one could catch Yu Laosan red-handed with any evidence.
Everyone knew that he was related to these drug issues, but since he technically didn't take action, he was considered a victim too.
Because of his approach, when it finally came to sentencing, Yu Laosan, despite desperately trying to slander himself, was only sentenced to twelve years. No additional time could be added on.
Always thinking of ways to reduce his sentence, Yu Laosan was probably the first man who actively tried to increase his own sentence.
