Nothing happened that night. Song Jinxiu did not go to court the next day. She had breakfast in a listless state and prepared to go to her sister's amusement park.

This girl is smart. After seeing the layout of the club, she also learned to run an amusement park.

She bought the houses around the teahouse, with a large patio in the middle where children could play with a wooden horse, a slide, and bumper cars wrapped in sheepskin.

Surrounding the courtyard are the teahouse, shadow puppet theater, pastry shop, buffet restaurant and theater.

With a ticket price of only 200 wen per person, you can come in to listen to operas, watch shadow puppet shows, listen to books and drink tea. Of course, tea is charged separately.

Two hundred wen is not a small amount of money for ordinary people, but this is the capital city, and most people who can make a living in the capital city are not short of money.

Moreover, the whole family can find a place they like when they come here.

Children especially like shadow puppetry. "Journey to the West" is performed every day. The children never get tired of it. They are not satisfied with watching it once and they all clamor to watch it over and over again.

Children who have watched it many times can explain the plot to first-time viewers in detail and are proud of it.

The theater is a favorite among women and the elderly. The latest rehearsals of "Romance of the West Chamber", "Dream of Red Mansions", "Mother-in-law's Embroidery", etc. also satisfy the interests of different groups of people.

The storytellers in the teahouses performed one novel after another, such as "The Sentimental Swordsman", "The Twins of the Red Lotus", "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer", etc., and the seats were almost always full.

Therefore, the amusement park's business is also quite good. Song Jinfang is now also a small wealthy woman.

Song Jinxiu led Su Chuan and Yingchun out of the house. As soon as they arrived at East Street, the carriage was stopped by someone.

"Princess, I feel wronged. Please help us!"

It turned out that a father and daughter were kneeling in front of the carriage and crying out for justice.

Song Jinxiu lifted the carriage curtain and looked over, frowning and saying, "If you have any grievances, go to Jingzhao Yin. This princess is not an official of the Ministry of Justice."

The kneeling father and daughter were stunned. The man said, "We are ordinary people from Weixiang. We risked our lives to come to the capital to appeal for justice. If we go to the Jingzhao Yin, we can't afford the thirty lashes. We hope that the princess will show mercy."

Are you trying to take a shortcut?

Song Jinxiu glanced at him and said, "If you report this to me, I'll punish you with fifty lashes of the cane. Are you still going to report me?"

Humph! This man looks quite strong, but he can't even bear thirty blows. What kind of injustice could he have suffered?

If people went to Beijing to complain about trivial matters, how busy would the government offices in Beijing be?

This is East Street, and there are so many people watching around. She doesn't want to break the Cangwu laws.

Besides, if this precedent is set, everyone will come to her for big and small grievances, and she will be exhausted to death.

She was not the Justice Bao of Kaifeng Prefecture, nor was she responsible for redressing grievances and judging cases. What she wanted was to consider the overall situation, stabilize the people's hearts, and revitalize Cangwu.

But now her whole heart is on the Saint of Southern Frontier. She has to protect the emperor's safety and guard against that woman secretly plotting against important officials in the court. She is already very tired and has no time to care about the trivial matters of ordinary people.

So let's leave the matter of redressing injustice and judging cases to professionals.

Song Jinxiu has never been a saint and never puts herself in a difficult position.

She rested her elbows on the car window, supported her head with her delicate hands, and looked at them lazily, "If you can't bear it, then go back to your county government office. If the county government doesn't accept the case, or the trial is unfair,

According to Cangwu law, we should appeal to higher authorities step by step."

The girl choked, then wiped away her tears and asked tearfully, "Princess, if you can take on the case in Xing County, why can't you take on ours? Besides, our grievances are related to you, Princess."

Song Jinxiu narrowed her eyes.

She did not make the case of Li Cuiya's family in Xing County public, but sent people to handle it privately.

This girl actually knew about Li Cuiya's case. She must be either a fellow villager or someone was instigating her to do so.

"Then I can't intervene. This involves me, the princess, so I have to avoid suspicion."

Song Jinxiu glanced at the girl and said, "However, since this is related to this princess, you must be punished by being beaten."

She glanced around and said to a young man watching from the outside, "Hey, Cui Yougui, go to Jingzhao Yin. Someone has filed a complaint here. Let them handle it impartially."

Cui Yougui was stunned. He was Cui Zixuan's brother and a student of the Imperial College. He didn't expect that Dr. Song, the princess, still remembered his name. He couldn't help but feel a little flattered.

"Yes, Princess, don't worry. I'll leave this matter to my students."

The father and daughter looked at each other, their faces showing anxiety.

"We won't sue anymore. We won't sue anymore."

They didn't want to file a lawsuit in the first place, but were instigated by someone who said that if Princess Kang Le took the case, they would get more compensation.

But they were not willing to be beaten for such a small amount of money.

Cui Yougui glared and said, "No, this is related to the princess's reputation. Since I have received the princess' order, I have to do it.

In the carriage behind the crowd, Cui Zixuan snorted angrily, "Humph! This piece of trash."

My own words have never been so effective.

Originally this was just a minor incident and Song Jinxiu didn't care about it.

However, before they had gone far, a pair of sisters came and blocked the road to complain, accusing the bully of stealing their bride and forcing their old father to death.

Song Jinxiu looked up at the sky. Could today be the day to file a complaint?

Song Jinxiu looked at the pitiful couple kneeling on the ground crying, and they were indeed very beautiful.

But your father was forced to death, and you still didn't forget to flirt with the young masters watching the fun. Are you sure you rejected the bully's attempt to steal your bride? Instead of throwing yourself into his arms?

"In broad daylight, in the open, yet they are forcing a bride to marry and oppressing innocent people. Princess Kangle, please stand up for this helpless couple."

"That's right, it's so pitiful. Ladies, don't worry. As women, the princess will definitely do you justice."

Song Jinxiu looked at the people around her pointing and talking, and some young men who were kind to women came to help the two women. The two women stood up reluctantly, but they were shaky and almost had to rely on the men to stand steady.

Song Jinxiu sneered in her heart, but said seriously, "It's really hateful. Zhu Beichen, have your people take them both to the Imperial City Department and have a thorough trial of this case."

"Yes."

Su Chuan frowned, "Princess, why do these two seem so awkward to me?"

Yingchun said, "These two women must not be from good families. How can girls from good families rely on men? They are shameless."

Song Jinxiu glanced at the two of them with admiration, "Yes, these two women's behavior is obviously that of prostitutes."

"A prostitute? Then what they said about the bully stealing the bride, can't that be false?"

Su Chuan immediately became alert and looked around.

Even if she didn't understand, she knew that something was wrong today.

Song Jinxiu shook her head. "It's okay. The people in the Imperial City Bureau are not pushovers. I believe they'll find out the result soon."

The amusement park is right on East Street. From a distance, Song Jinxiu saw that the entrance of the amusement park was crowded with people.
