The fragrance of medicine is alluring, the farm elder sister is cool and cool

Ye Xiuying was held down and could only cry out weakly, her heart almost breaking into pieces. Wen Qingcheng gritted her teeth and said nothing, only glaring at the county magistrate viciously.

When the Wang family saw Wen Qingcheng being beaten, they smiled with glee on their faces.

"Sir, she has fainted." The bailiff stopped what he was doing and checked Wen Qingcheng's breath. She was still breathing, but had fainted.

"Qingcheng—wuwuwu." Ye Xiuying knelt down beside Wen Qingcheng and cried.

"Wake her up. This is just to teach her a lesson. Young people don't know respect and inferiority."

Aunt Ruan, Ruan Sanlang, Li Hongxiu and others outside the yamen all had painful expressions on their faces. Faced with power, they were powerless and could only watch Wen Qingcheng being beaten.

When the county magistrate was about to give the order to continue the beating, a bailiff ran up to him and whispered in his ear. The county magistrate raised his eyes in surprise, nodded, and waved his hand to let the bailiff go first.

"Suspend the trial. Keep a record of Wen Qingcheng's punishment for now." After saying this, the county magistrate hurried to the back hall.

After the county magistrate left, Ye Xiuying ran over and said, "Qingcheng, how are you?"

Wen Qingcheng lowered her head slightly and took a deep breath, "Mom, I'm fine."

"You said you were fine, but you fainted from the pain." Tears fell from Ye Xiuying's eyes, hitting Wen Qingcheng, but her heart felt as if it was pierced by thousands of arrows.

Wen Qingcheng has been practicing the qigong breathing method from her previous life for some time. She is now twice as strong as an average person and can withstand blows twice as well.

However, she didn't expect that the beating in the yamen would be so severe that it almost broke her bones.

About a quarter of an hour later, the county magistrate returned, along with him came a man in fancy clothes who was less than forty years old. He walked in a square step and exuded awe-inspiring majesty.

The county magistrate walked behind the man with a flattering look on his face, inviting him to sit down. The county magistrate secretly wiped the sweat from his forehead.

I thought: What day is today? Why did these two great gods come to the county government at the same time? The second master of the Zuo family is a wealthy man in Tongji Prefecture. Even the prefect treats him with courtesy. He actually came to the county government in person and asked him to judge Wen Qingcheng not guilty?

The county magistrate looked cautiously at the man in fancy clothes next to him. If it was possible that Mr. Zuo knew the Wen family, then why did this Marquis Wu'an suddenly come to their small county and insist on participating in the trial and asking him to judge the case impartially? Could it be that the Wen family also had a relationship with the Marquis' Mansion in the capital?

At this time, Chuyi had already climbed over the wall from home and rushed to the back hall of the county government office, where he was reminiscing with Zuo Erye. Zuo Erye originally wanted to have a drink with Chuyi, but seeing Chuyi alone here, his heart flew to the county government office.

Master Zuo had already arranged all the connections, and Wen Qingcheng would soon be acquitted, so he said goodbye to Chuyi.

In the court, the bailiff saw that the county magistrate had returned and Wen Qingcheng's punishment had not yet been completed, so he asked, "Sir, you have already been beaten with 15 boards, do you want to beat her with the remaining boards?"

The county magistrate accepted the bribe from Zuo Erye, and Wu Anhou was listening nearby. He immediately changed his tone and shouted at the yamen runner: "Asshole! Why don't you leave now?"

The bailiff was somewhat confused by the scolding. He stole a glance at the county magistrate, then quietly retreated, secretly cursing in his heart that the county magistrate had taken the wrong medicine today.

The county magistrate picked up the gavel and slammed it lightly on the table.

"Just now, this county went to the back hall, and the coroner gave the latest evidence. Wang Laowu did die of a ruptured spleen, and it had nothing to do with the acupuncture treatment of the Wen family woman. Now this county has ruled that Wang Laowu's death was purely accidental, and Wen Qingcheng is acquitted."

The county magistrate's words stunned the Wang family, as well as the people who were listening to the trial outside the yamen.

"Sanlang, did I hear it right? The county magistrate changed Qingcheng's verdict to not guilty?" Li Hongxiu still couldn't believe it.

"He's acquitted, that's great, this is what it means that good will prevail over evil." Ruan Sanlang was also surprised and happy.

Wen Zhuo said, "It's really the blessing of our ancestors. In this world, people should always follow reason. Qingcheng gave Wang Laowu an acupuncture injection, which saved his breath and allowed him to see his family for the last time. This is a good deed, and it will definitely be rewarded."

Li Hongxiu was agitated. "That's right. Everyone in the surrounding area knows that bachelor. He bullies men and women. When he was young, he teased and bullied the elderly and robbed them of their money. He was born a bad seed. Now he fell to his death. It's God's retribution."

Inside the hall, Ye Xiuying was the first to react and quickly knelt down to thank him: "Thank you, Master Qingtian, thank you, Master Qingtian."

Hearing Ye Xiuying's voice, the man in gorgeous clothes sitting in the hall was suddenly struck by lightning and stood still. When he saw her face and met her tearful eyes, he was overwhelmed with emotions, as if he was in a different world, and was surprised and happy, and the love they had in the past came to his mind.

Although the man in fancy clothes looked excited, he was trying to restrain himself. He knew that now was not the time to recognize each other.

When Ye Xiuying looked up to express her gratitude, she vaguely saw her deceased husband Wen Liang.

But the man who was listening in the hall was wearing a gorgeous brocade robe embroidered with delicate silver thread patterns, and a purple gold crown on his head inlaid with sapphires. The whole person was shining with a dazzling light, making people dare not look at him directly. How could it be her husband Wen Liang? Ye Xiuying lowered her eyes and dared not look again.

The man walked down the steps step by step and came in front of Ye Xiuying and Wen Qingcheng. Their eyes met, and the man in gorgeous clothes in front of him had eyes full of longing and affection.

Ye Xiuying couldn't believe it. Is this... is this really her husband? Is this rich young man in front of her really her husband?

The man didn't say anything, but looked at Wen Qingcheng, who was lying on the bench, with blood stains on her back. The man in fancy clothes had a look of pain in his eyes, followed by a raging rage, and turned to look at the county magistrate angrily.

"Do you want to impose such severe punishment when trying a case in your county court?" The voice was not loud but extremely authoritative.

The county magistrate made eye contact with him, met those murderous eyes, and lowered his head instantly.

"My lord, I know I was wrong." The county magistrate was worried. What was the relationship between the Marquis Wu'an and the Wen family? Why did he react so strongly when he saw the Wen girl being beaten?

Ye Xiuying looked in disbelief at the man in gorgeous clothes who was called the Marquis. She felt sad. He was indeed not her husband Wen Liang. He was actually a Marquis, and her husband had died in a drowning a year ago.

When the Wang family members saw that the marquis from the capital had arrived, the county magistrate dared not ignore the evidence and make an arbitrary sentence. Knowing that they could not blackmail the Wen family, they could only consider themselves unlucky and leave in dismay.

Wen Qingcheng saw that the Wang family was about to leave, and struggled to climb down from the bench: "Wait a minute, I want to sue the Wang family for provoking trouble, framing others, and slander!"

When the clear voice came out, the man in fancy clothes in the hall was stunned. He looked at Wen Qingcheng intently until he was sure that the voice was indeed coming from her mouth. He was surprised and happy for a moment. She had never been able to speak since she was a child, and now he could hear her voice, how could he not be excited.

As soon as Wen Qingcheng finished speaking, everyone in the Wang family panicked. What was going on? They had already stuffed the money into the government office and bribed the government officials, but there was no way they could get anything done. Not only did Wen Qingcheng not say anything, but why did the situation suddenly change? Did Wen Qingcheng want to sue them?

Old Lady Wang stared at Wen Qingcheng emotionally: "Whoever is looking for trouble, it is only natural for me to seek justice for my son."

"Sir, you have to do something for me. My brother died tragically, and now our family has to face a lawsuit." The third son of the Wang family knelt down and kowtowed.
