Seeing that everyone was hesitating to move forward, Chen Yunyou stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Sir, apart from me, many students who came here today were unable to take the college entrance examination because of Yang Ji's selfishness. I beg you to order compensation for the losses of these students!"

"Not to mention the ten years of hard study, how much energy and money it takes, just the expenses of coming to the capital city are a huge expense!"

"On the way here, I also asked everyone. They all ranked high this time. If it weren't for this disaster, they would have a good chance of passing the college entrance examination. Some of them even sold their family's land to raise money!"

"Sir, now that they have missed this college entrance examination, I am afraid they will no longer be able to participate in the next one. I beg you to order Yang Ji to compensate these students for their losses so that they will not have to return home in disgrace!"

Li Zhifu couldn't help but sit up straight, "Have you thought about how to compensate?"

Chen Yun looked to the student who was leading the group behind him. That person immediately stepped forward and took out the compensation documents that he had prepared long ago.

Li Zhifu took a look at it, then handed the compensation document to County Magistrate Yang, "Master Yang, please take a look. Do you have any comments?"

Yang Shi suppressed his anger and took the compensation document. Looking at the large amount of money on it, veins on his forehead throbbed with anger.

He gritted his teeth and was about to refute, but the master beside him pulled his sleeve.

The lawyer shook his head at him, signaling Magistrate Yang not to be impulsive, and at the same time signaled him with his eyes to look outside.

Magistrate Yang followed the direction of his advisor's gaze and saw that the students outside were very excited.

Their faces were filled with anger and dissatisfaction, and at this moment, just a fire could lead to irreversible consequences.

The master stepped forward and lowered his voice and said, "Sir, you should know that this is not the time to worry about money."

"Those students are very emotional. If we confront them head-on, it will only make things more difficult. The most urgent task is to try to appease these people and save the young master's life."

Magistrate Yang suppressed his rage and bowed to Prefect Li, with a hint of helplessness and compromise in his voice: "This is all because of my son. We accept the punishment!"

The expression of Magistrate Li looked better now. If he was unwilling to compromise, cause trouble for him, and let these students make trouble, then he would not have to care about his threats.

Seeing that the other party was willing to admit the punishment, he immediately slammed the gavel.

"Yang Ji, you designed to prevent students from taking the college entrance examination, which indirectly caused the death of one person. This crime is intolerable. Now that the evidence is conclusive, I sentence you to be expelled from the status of a student and exiled to Mobei as a warning to others."

Then, Magistrate Li turned his gaze to Doctor Xu: "Doctor Xu, as a doctor, you should save lives and heal the wounded, but you disregarded human life and caused innocent people to be harmed. I sentence you to fifty strokes of the cane and ten years of hard labor to atone for your crime."

As for the servants, although they were only accomplices, they could not escape responsibility.

Li Zhifu, "The rest of the servants will be caned fifty times and serve five years. I hope you can learn from this and stop being accomplices to the evildoers in the future."

After hearing the verdict, County Magistrate Yang wanted to argue for his rights, but when he heard the cheers of the students in front of the government office, his face finally turned visibly green.

He knew that the situation was hopeless and that arguing further was pointless.

The most urgent task is to deal with the officials above him. At this time, he has already started thinking about how to make his son suffer less!

Most of the students accepted the punishment given by Magistrate Li, but some of them were still dissatisfied.

But no matter how unwilling they are, they know this is the best outcome they can strive for!

A group of people came out of the government office, and the student in the lead bowed to Chen Yun and said, "Thank you, Brother Chen, for speaking out for justice. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to get compensation so smoothly today!"

Chen Yunyou, "You are too polite. I am just stating the facts. The fact that this matter was resolved so smoothly is due to the fair enforcement of the law by the prefect. We should all thank the prefect!"

Everyone said yes again and again.

After the greetings, Chen Yunyou and his group continued walking towards Liuer Hutong.

On the way back, Song Xile told her husband about arranging for Yonggui's family.

"Since I promised him that I would settle his family in the city, I must fulfill my promise. Now he lives outside the city. I want to settle his family in the city after the college entrance examination results are announced."

Qian Feng, who was standing by, heard Song Xile's narration and said quickly, "Sister-in-law, why don't you leave this matter to me? My family is in the city, and it's easy to arrange a family there."

Song Xile, "Will it be too much trouble?"

Qian Feng said indifferently: "What's the big deal? Besides, my sister-in-law promised that person because we were drugged, which is related to me. Just tell me where the person is now, and don't worry about the rest!"

Seeing him say this, Song Xile no longer insisted and told him the address.

After all, as Qian Feng said, Qian Feng's home is in the provincial capital, so it would definitely be more appropriate for him to make the arrangements.

As soon as the group returned to Liu'er Hutong, they saw Butler Qian waiting at the door.

When Butler Qian saw his young master, he immediately ran up to him with a smile, "Young master, the college entrance examination is over now. The master asked me to take you back home!"

Qian Feng didn't want to go back. "Why rush? I'll go back after the college entrance examination results are announced!"

Butler Qian stamped his feet and said, "Oh, my young master, please don't embarrass me. The master has told me that you must move back today!"

Chen Yunyou looked at the old butler who was trying to please him, and patted his friend on the shoulder.

"Your family is in the city, so it's understandable that you didn't go back during the exam period. But now that the college entrance examination is over, it's a bit unreasonable if you don't go back!"

Seeing his friend say the same thing, Qian Feng finally compromised.

He suddenly invited, "How about you stay at my house for a few days?"

Chen Yunyou said, "Brother Song is not fully recovered yet, and Xile still needs to check his pulse every day. You go back first, and we will go to your house to ask for wine on the day when the results are announced!"

Qian Feng was also happy when he heard this. He clapped his hands and said with a smile: "It's settled. Don't refuse when the time comes!"

Chen Yunyou smiled and said, "Definitely!"

There were only two of them, and no one expected that the accident would happen so suddenly!
