The scene fell into an awkward silence for a moment, but it was not completely silent.

Jiang Yingcheng, who was standing beside the court, covered his mouth with his hands, as if trying to hide his laughter, but failed. A "puff puff" sound of air kept seeping out from between his folded hands.

It's even more sarcastic than just laughing.

Wang Qizi's face changed from red to blue, and from blue to purple, and after several changes, it finally froze in pitch black.

He turned his head and glared at the little guy who was laughing more and more "rampantly", and angrily corrected: "He is my father!!"

Wang Qizhi: “…”

This time, his reaction was much faster than before. He realized what he had said almost the moment he finished speaking. However—

"Pfft hahahahahaha——"

The violent little boy's reaction was even faster than his. Before he could correct himself again, a new round of ridicule had already begun.

Several people around were trying hard to hold on, but they broke down the moment they heard the little guy's laughter. For a moment, the sound of "Puff puff puff" rang out in every corner of the court.

Even the heartless little brat turned his head and raised the corners of his lips at him in mockery.

Wang Qizhi: “…”

He was so angry that he was breathing heavily. He turned to face the prefect, like a bull enraged by the color red: "Sir!"

Chu Zian immediately sat up straight, put away the smile on his face, and coughed lightly: "What's the matter?"

Wang Qizi met Chu Zian's gaze with a wooden face. The condemnation in his eyes was angry and powerless, and the whole person even looked a little broken at an inappropriate time.

Chu Zian couldn't help but sit back a little.

Wang Qizhi took a deep breath and said, "My Lord, you seem to have not asked who is in the hall."

Chu Zian: “…”

Thinking back carefully, he seemed to have asked "Who is the reporter?" and then the situation went in a weird direction. He didn't know how it developed into this absurd situation...

He added dryly, "...Who is here?"

Wang Qizi raised his head and chest, and looked around proudly, making sure that the little guys beside him could see the mockery in his eyes and eyebrows. Then he said in a sonorous and powerful voice: "I am the second son of the Wang family in the south of the city, Wang Qizi!"

Chu Zi'an looked at the lawyer who was recording the case with a slightly embarrassed expression.

It’s broken, he doesn’t recognize it.

His doubtful eyes turned back to Wang Qizi, and he suddenly wanted to ask - Do you know who I am? Have you ever seen a prefect like me before? Don't you have any doubts at all? !

He had just taken office not long ago, and it was good enough for him to know the eldest son of the Wang family. How could he possibly know the second son? !

Wang Qizhi didn't know what Chu Zian was thinking. He just saw the other party's expression suddenly changed, and turned around proudly and looked at the opposite side: "You guys are young, I don't want to talk to you--"

"Puff-"

"He even calls himself this young master~" Jiang Yingcheng turned around with a smirk on his face and whispered loudly to his two friends, "Hahahaha——"

Even her father wouldn't call himself that!

Wang Qizi paused for a moment, his anger rising rapidly, and the sound of his teeth grinding could even be heard clearly by the officers guarding the door.

"My Lord... I won't make it difficult for you. As long as you honestly return Wang Fuguang, give me the goods in your carriages as compensation, and kowtow to me and apologize, I will let you go!"

Wang Qizi adjusted his cuffs in a pretentious manner, his whole demeanor was filled with four big words - "a villain succeeds".

Jiang Yingcheng stopped smiling.

The eyes that usually seemed to be lively and could speak were now staring lifelessly in the direction of Wang Qizi.

Although the people being brought to the court were their three half-grown children, she was not stupid.

This man was able to blurt out the terms of reconciliation after gaining the upper hand. It was obvious that he had prepared a draft in his mind long ago and was waiting to see their embarrassment at this moment!

He was even targeting her handsome father!

"Oh, are you angry?" Wang Qizi's eyes had been fixed on the little girl who had been fighting the most vigorously. Seeing her puffing up her cheeks and looking angry, he finally laughed his first genuine laugh of the day, "Weren't you having a lot of fun fighting just now? Why aren't you laughing now?!"

"This kid should have already told you that our Wang family has connections in Beijing."

As he spoke, the corners of his mouth lifted up, revealing a hideous smile: "Come to think of it, your father was really relieved that he left you there alone and went out without even telling you to be careful with your temper before he left."

His body was still aching slightly, but he felt extremely happy in his heart.

These little guys had just dealt such a heavy hand to them in the inn, and those adults also...

Although there was no definite evidence, he always felt that whenever they were about to stand firmly, stones would hit their knees from somewhere, and it was these servants who did it!

Wang Qizi clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.

Today, he will make them pay the price they deserve!

How could the goods in those trucks be enough? Even if they were asked to kneel down and beg for mercy, what would happen? !

As long as Wang Qizi doesn't give in, these people will just be like fish at his mercy, and he can do whatever he wants! !

Jiang Yingcheng's fingertips and teeth began to itch slightly, and his eyes kept roaming around the courtroom, trying to find another stick that was handy.

【turn up--】

"Wang Qizhi."

"I don't recognize the second son of the palace," Chu Zi'an, who had been silent for a long time behind the desk, finally spoke, "but I do recognize some justice."

He ignored the astonishment on Wang Qizhi's face and looked behind them: "Are you witnesses to this case?"

Behind the crowd, the innkeeper who came over and the guests who came out to watch the excitement looked at each other and leaned forward together: "To answer your words, sir, we are the witnesses of this incident."

The shopkeeper's base was in Xiyuan City, but the guests came from all over the country and only regarded this as a temporary resting place. They were not afraid when they heard the words, and they pieced together the whole incident one by one.

"We all saw it! It was this prince who brought a group of thugs into the room of those little guys, and that's why they fought back!"

"That's right! They were so cruel to such a small kid. If it was my child, I would beat them to death, not to mention hitting them!!"

"That's right! They're still asking for compensation, bah! You're such an old man, but you don't even care about your dignity!!"

Wang Qizi's face became darker and darker as he was criticized. He no longer had the cheerful look he had just now. He suddenly shouted, "Shut up, everyone!"

“You, you——”

"enough!"

Chu Zian spoke with authority, interrupting Wang Qizi's impotent rage. He reached out and picked up the gavel on the table, raised it high, and tried to control the situation in front of him.

[Wow——this prefect is quite upright! ]

[If my father saw this, he would be very happy! ]

Chu Zian's movements suddenly froze in mid-air: "..."

Father what, what emperor?!
