The younger sister-in-law falsely accused the sickly uncle and ran away with the baby

Shen Zhiheng narrowed his eyes slightly, unable to hold back any longer, and stepped forward, saying to Liuguang, "Take these three people who are disrespectful to the goddess away!"

Liuguang immediately agreed, and in an instant, a group of black-clad guards appeared in the dark and surrounded the three people.

The old man with a good memory recognized the man and knelt down quickly, "Greetings, General Shen! May the General be well!"

Seeing this, the others also knelt down.

Yu Ruyue looked at Shen Zhiheng's angry eyes and felt helpless.

Zhou Huan recognized the person instantly.

"You...you're not..."

But before she could finish her words, someone stuffed a handful of dirt into her mouth and took her away.

Wei Dong and Wei Chen saw Zhou Huan being taken away and immediately struggled to stop him, "Let me go, little girl! You liars!"

"Let me go, my lady! My lady is pregnant with my child! If the captain knew about this, he would definitely not let you go."

The guards next to them grabbed a handful of mud and sand and stuffed it into their mouths. These people struggled but could no longer utter a complete sentence.

Lin Yihao looked at the people kneeling on the ground and sighed, "General Shen's reputation is still the greatest. I, the prefect, stood up to support the people, but I was still called a gigolo!"

The kneeling people were horrified. They had never imagined that this young scholar could actually be their prefect!

Rui Niang opened her mouth in surprise. She didn't expect that she would be so lucky! ?

Yu Ruyue walked over with a smile on her face. "Don't underestimate yourself, Lord Prefect. The people of Qingtian Prefecture are certainly grateful to you from the bottom of their hearts."

"That's right! I suggest that when the prefect returns, he set up a tent outside the government office to specifically handle cases of intentional harm within families. He can then send some yamen runners to publicize this issue. All the counties under the jurisdiction of Qingtian Prefecture will follow suit, so that those men and women who are suffering deeply in their families can have a way out."

Lin Yihao nodded in agreement. "That's great! I'll go back and get to work on it now."

When the people heard this, they all cheered, cheering that they had such an honest official who cared about the people.

Rui Niang felt so happy when she saw the three people being taken away!

She looked at the prefect who left in a hurry, and felt that life was full of hope.

Although this shop was the last dowry left by her mother, if giving it away could bring her own liberation and the liberation of other women in the same situation as her, then her mother would probably think it was worth it if she saw it from heaven...

Suddenly, a slender white hand, holding the blood-stained golden hairpin that was broken in two, was handed to her.

"Wei Rui! Don't be sad. If your mother in heaven saw you, she would be extremely worried. This golden hairpin and the shop are her last act of help to you!"

Shen Jiaojiao also hurried over to comfort him, "Fortunately, we have these things your mother left behind, otherwise we wouldn't be able to test people's hearts."

Qin Wanrou nodded in agreement, "Your parents probably know that you are weak-willed, so they've been watching from heaven and want to help you."

Rui Niang looked at the golden hairpin beside her, and tears flowed uncontrollably. She held the hairpin tightly in her hand and placed it on her chest, as if this would bring her closer to her parents.

Because she used too much force, the protruding carvings on the gold hairpin pierced her hand, and blood dripped onto the ground, which was extremely glaring.

"Mother! Father! I am such an unfilial child!"

As she cried, she pounded her chest with the hand holding the golden hairpin. Her desperate and painful cries made everyone present tear up...

Yu Ruyue and others just watched and accompanied them quietly.

After Rui Niang finally vented all the grievances and pain she had endured over the years, she felt as if the huge rock pressing on her chest had finally been overturned.

She wiped her tears with her sleeves, remembered her promise, and kowtowed three times to the three people in front of her.

"Me! Wei Rui! Thank you all for your help."

"I'll keep my word. I'll give this shop to you as a token of my gratitude for your kindness."

Yu Ruyue quickly helped the man up. "I really want your shop, but don't worry, I won't let you suffer any loss. The most urgent thing is to pack up quickly, close the shop, and then go to the government office! Resolve this matter once and for all."

Wei Rui nodded firmly, "Okay! Once I finish this matter, I will definitely repay you well."

"Besides, those two bastards don't deserve the surname Wei!"

"I will never allow them to continue to insult this family name."

Yu Ruyue and the other two looked at her determined gaze and felt happy for her.

The few people came here and achieved their purpose, so they didn't stay long and followed the woman to the government office.

In Qingtian Prefecture, inside the high gate on the east side of the city, a burly old man with a full beard heard the servant's report and was so angry that his beard almost stood up. He picked up the tea bowl beside him and threw it hard, splashing the tea in the bowl onto the guard's side, soaking a large area...

"These two stinky brats, who haven't even grown all their hair yet, are actually riding on my head. When I was on the battlefield killing the enemy, they didn't even know where to use their urine and mud."

"Isn't it just a woman being beaten and scolded in the street? What does it have to do with them? Besides, that woman was the man's wife. Even if they beat her to death, it was justified. These two brats are really meddling in everything."

"You actually don't take me seriously? Do you really think I'm afraid of them?"

Captain Sun's confidant beside him quickly advised, "Captain! Don't be angry."

"We are now on their territory. We must be patient and never forget the important task that the Protector of the Country and His Majesty sent us here to perform."

"Isn't it just a shortfall of money? If we can accomplish that task, His Majesty will surely reward us."

"Furthermore, your brother-in-law is indeed a bit arrogant, and the eldest son is also too domineering. The commander should persuade them more. If something really happens and those two get hold of something, we might be punished before we can accomplish anything."

Captain Sun took several deep breaths and slowly suppressed the anger in his heart.

"You are right. I cannot let such a small matter ruin His Majesty's plan."

"However, I have tried many times to enter the Yu Mansion, but failed!"

"I went up the mountain to see it before, and it was just a group of ordinary people."

"I don't know where the so-called goddess is hiding."

"By the way! Who was following General Shen today?"
