She is still coveted by others in the Yi family.

On the other side, two old men landed in the capital in a carriage, looked up at the tall buildings at the city gate, and sighed,

"The capital city is just different."

The driver had a scar under his eye and snorted coldly, "The capital is naturally different from your country.

Remember what you are here for. Don't waste my master's efforts to send you all the way here. If you fail to accomplish your mission, the land you mortgaged will never be recovered."

The two old men looked at each other helplessly and quickly replied, "Don't be angry, sir. We will be obedient. You must protect our fertile land. Without it, my daughter won't be able to get married!"

"Who told her to go gambling?" The driver flicked the whip in his hand and pointed in a direction.

"Go straight there and you will reach a vermilion gate with two stone lions at the door and a big drum next to it. Do you know what to do with the rest?"

They have repeated this countless times on the way, including how to beat the drums, how to complain, and how to reach the ears of the gods.

What expression and how should I cry to gain sympathy?

It has been rehearsed long ago.

"I know, I know. Don't worry, I will be right." The two old men nodded and repeatedly assured that everything would go smoothly.

The driver said with a dull face, "You will suffer a little for this matter, but His Majesty will reward you when the truth comes out. When you return home in glory, your daughter will marry any man.

The opportunity has been given to you, take advantage of it.”

The driver finished talking and drove the carriage back into the crowd. The two old men were unfamiliar with the place and were at a loss on the busy streets of the capital.

The old man accidentally bumped into a foreigner on the shoulder. He looked up and saw that he had deep features, strange eyes, and was tall and strong.

Seeing that the man was full of ill intentions, the two old men were so scared that they dared not say a word.

Fortunately, the foreigner frowned and turned away without causing any trouble to the two old men.

However, this move also made the two elders realize that Beijing was not easy to mess with, and one of them even backed off.

"Do we really want to do that... He sounds nice, but I feel that if we really file a complaint and offend her, we may not be able to go home."

The other person thought of his own difficulties and gritted his teeth and said, "But if we don't do it, our fertile land will be taken away by the casino. How can we survive? Your Majesty has been deceived. If he knows the truth, he will definitely not ignore it."

The two of them, struggling and supporting each other, walked to the agreed vermilion gate.

They did not recognize the words on the door, but they were very familiar with the large drum that was as tall as a person beside the door because it had been mentioned countless times.

The two old generals wanted to get closer, but were stopped by the guards, "This is an important place for the court, old man, please don't stay here."

"I'm not staying here. I have something important to do..." The old man pointed at the drum, his voice trembling, "Beat it for me a few times."

The guard stopped him again, "You can't knock casually, unless there is a serious grievance, otherwise the consequences will be serious."

The old man glared, "If I want to knock, then there must be a great injustice! Go away! I want Master Qing to make the decision!"

The guard couldn't stop him and had to let him go, but he still tried to persuade him, "I've been guarding for many years and I've never seen anyone get a good result after knocking. Old man, take care of yourself."

The old man paused only for a moment before taking a few steps forward and picking up the hammer. As the drum sounded, it indicated that someone was risking his own life to impeach a court official and asking His Majesty the Emperor to uphold justice.

The guard looked at the two old men, not knowing whether to admire their bravery or feel sorry for their final fate.

"What? Impeach me?"

Lou Xiao pointed her index finger at herself, "Or are they two old people?"
