God's Daughter, Queen of Miraculous Medicine

Chapter 294 Prince Wang’s Retribution

The county magistrate gave an order: "Hit him!"

Several yamen runners took up boards and started beating Prince Wang. After a few blows, Prince Wang cried out in pain, "Stop beating me, stop beating me, I confess, I confess!"

The county magistrate snorted coldly: "Speak!"

Prince Wang panted and said in embarrassment, "I, I just don't like Lu Tianyu. He actually wants to marry Lin Wan'er. I like Lin Wan'er, so I want Lu Tianyu to be detained and unable to participate in the provincial examination, and to be revoked of his title of scholar, so that he can't compete with me for Miss Lin."

Lu Tingyan shouted angrily: "You bad guy, you want to frame my brother just because of this, it's too much!"

Liang Yu also glared at Prince Wang: "How dare you act so recklessly for your own selfish desires!"

There was an uproar in the court, and everyone accused Prince Wang of his shameless behavior.

"This young master Wang is usually domineering, but I didn't expect him to do such a thing now. It's so abominable!" An old man was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.

"That's right, looking at his expression, he must be feeling guilty." A woman nearby echoed.

"Humph, this kind of person should be severely punished. He should not be allowed to do evil again." A young and strong man clenched his fists.

At this time, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted: "Young Master Wang, relying on his family's wealth and power, can he do whatever he wants? Is there any law?" Everyone responded, and the scene became more and more chaotic.

When Prince Wang in the court heard the accusations from everyone, his face turned very ugly.

He shouted loudly: "You troublemakers, stop talking nonsense. Believe it or not, I will make my uncle pay for it." When Prince Wang said this, the people in the court looked at each other, and the atmosphere became a little subtle for a moment.

A brave young man stood up. He looked directly at Prince Wang without fear and said loudly, "Do you think you can scare us by bringing up your uncle? You have done many evil things and you deserve to be punished."

Prince Wang's eyes widened in anger, and he pointed at the young man and cursed, "Who do you think you are? How dare you criticize me? When my uncle comes, you will see what will happen to you."

At this time, a woman in the crowd said worriedly: "It is said that the uncle of this prince is an official in the court and has great power. If he really comes to support this prince, what should we do?"

An old man next to him sighed and said, "Alas, is there no justice in the world? This prince committed such a heinous crime, yet he can still threaten us by relying on his uncle's power."

Xiao Yi then said, "Wasn't that person sent by your uncle? Now that he's gone, will he still help you?"

Prince Wang's face changed, and then he pretended to be calm and said, "You are talking nonsense. Uncle Liang must have gone to help the reinforcements."

He prayed silently in his heart, hoping that his uncle would come to rescue him in time. However, Xiao Yi's words made his confidence begin to waver.

At this moment, the county magistrate slammed the gavel and shouted, "Silence! No noise is allowed in the court."

Everyone immediately quieted down and looked at the county magistrate nervously.

The county magistrate slammed the gavel and said, "Mr. Wang, you are a rich man, but you don't know how to cultivate yourself and practice virtue. Instead, you do such an unjust thing. It is really abominable! Today, I sentence you to the crime of framing the scholar and sentence you to thirty strokes of the cane and one year of labor to repair the city wall to set things right!"

When Prince Wang heard this, he collapsed to the ground and said, "Sir, please spare my life, please spare my life!"

But it was too late to beg for mercy. The bailiffs carried out the caning without mercy, beating Prince Wang until he cried for his parents.

Lu Tianyu stepped forward and said to the county magistrate: "Thank you, sir, for clearing my name."

The county magistrate smiled and said, "Mr. Lu, this is my duty. Fortunately, the truth has come out and you have not been wronged."

Lu Tingyan also ran over: "Brother, this is good, the bad guy got the punishment he deserved."

Lu Tianyu touched Lu Tingyan's head and said, "Yan'er, don't worry about this anymore."
