The first person who came up to chat was a young man with his servants.

"Little brother, why are you traveling alone? It's very dangerous. Where are your family members?"

Seeing that the young man's eyes were still clear, Yi Chen reluctantly replied, "My family is following behind and will catch up soon."

"Oh. Since you have your family with you, little brother, I'll take my leave."

"Goodbye." After seeing Tie Hanhan off, Yi Chen thought carefully. It seemed quite incongruous for "he," a young boy with red lips and white teeth, to walk alone.

However, she didn't think much about it. She just came out to shop and would go back after a while. Why should she think so much?

But she was still too naive. As she approached the city gate on her white horse, she was stopped by a mother and son.

Looking at the old woman in front of her, who was smiling like a wolf grandmother, and the middle-aged man who claimed to be her son, Yi Chen wanted to say, "Am I really that stupid?"

But before Yichen could say anything, the middle-aged man suddenly reached out and grabbed the reins of the white horse. The old woman burst into tears and said loudly, "Grandson, you can't run away from home. If you leave our family, how will grandma and your parents live?"

"Yes, yes!" At this moment, a middle-aged woman came out from nowhere and grabbed Yichen's calf and refused to let go.

Yi Chen: She now believes that she has encountered human traffickers, and that it is a gang that commits the crime.

Seeing this family of three putting on a show, the crowd that had just been entering and leaving the city in an orderly manner all stopped and looked over here.

Some people even smelled the gossip and quickly gathered around to watch the fun.

The soldiers guarding the city gate were stunned for just two or three seconds before coming over to drive the people away.

"If you have something to say, go home and tell them. Don't block the city gate and prevent everyone from entering or leaving."

"Hey, hey, don't worry, Master Jun, we'll leave now."

After hearing what the soldiers guarding the city said, the middle-aged man pulled his white horse and was about to leave.

Some people even automatically made way for them.

Just when the three men were grinning and thinking that their evil plan had succeeded, Yi Chen swung the horsewhip in her hand at the three men, and one of them was hit exactly.

"Ah~" the three of them screamed at the same time.

The onlookers were all shocked.

The middle-aged man was showing his vicious face. He pointed at Yi Chen and cursed: "You unfilial and rebellious son, how dare you hit me."

"Yeah." Someone next to him echoed.

"You traffickers actually dared to impersonate my father. Aren't you three afraid of having your entire clan exterminated? And you bunch of onlookers, have you forgotten your own family? Could a family of this worthless bastard have produced someone like me?"

The boy's voice alerted everyone, and everyone's eyes turned to the four people.

At just one glance, some people saw the trick.

"This young man looks like a beautiful girl. He was born into a wealthy family. How could he be born by these two ugly people?"

There are many smart people in this world. After hearing the young master's reminder, they immediately realized that this was a group of human traffickers.

Seeing that they had failed today, the three traffickers tried to escape. Yi Chen saw this and shouted to the onlookers, "Catch these three and send them to the county government office. I will reward you."

When they heard that there was a reward, all the men, regardless of age, reached out to take the reward.

The three traffickers were quickly apprehended. With someone leading the way, a group of people escorted the three traffickers towards the county government office.

The trafficker wanted to protest his innocence, but a bunch of rotten vegetable leaves were thrown in his face.

Yi Chen: Unity is strength.

When everyone arrived at the gate of the county government office, the gatekeeper came over immediately to ask what was going on.

When he heard that three human traffickers had been caught, the bailiff immediately went in to report to the county magistrate.

At this moment, even if Yichen wanted to leave, she couldn't.

The crowd was so enthusiastic (who would let her go without a tip?).

When Magistrate Feng entered the court, the bailiffs shouted, "Mighty!"

The lobby, which was noisy just now, suddenly became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Then, Yichen saw people kneeling on the ground all around her.

Yi Chen looked around and saw that besides the yamen runners, there was also an elderly man with a thin face standing there like herself.

In this situation, the yamen runners all understood that those who did not kneel when meeting the county magistrate were all people with merits.

They recognized the older man; he was this young master...

Just as the yamen runners all set their eyes on Yichen, Yichen, with some difficulty, bypassed the human-shaped obstacle under her feet and approached County Magistrate Feng, saying, "Aunt Grandpa~"

When County Magistrate Feng heard the young man standing next to him calling him, "Aunt Grandpa," he was stunned.

After he rubbed his eyes, he took a closer look and saw that the young man in front of him with red lips and white teeth was Yi Chen.

County Magistrate Feng hurriedly stood up from his seat and wanted to bow.

"Aunt grandpa, no need to be so polite." Yi Chen hurriedly stopped him.

"Your servant Feng Yongshou greets Princess Jiahui."

Everyone present was stunned when they saw the county magistrate salute the young master.

I heard County Magistrate Feng call the young master "Princess Jiahui."

The three human traffickers were so frightened that they fell back and lay on the ground, unable to get up.

Some people were also whispering, "No wonder the young master... no, the young princess said that anyone who impersonates her parents will be executed along with their entire clan."

"Who? Who is so bold as to impersonate His Royal Highness Prince Rui?" County Magistrate Feng's words frightened the three human traffickers to death.

Yi Chen didn't want to let them go, so she told County Magistrate Feng what happened at the city gate.

Magistrate Feng: "This is outrageous. Come, punish him severely."

The human trafficker who had just been strangled awake fainted again from fright.

However, when the yamen runners' boards fell, they all woke up, followed by deafening ghost howlings.

After one man was beaten with thirty sticks, he stopped screaming.

County Magistrate Feng asked them to explain how many people they had abducted, but the old woman was quite stubborn and refused to say.

But her son and daughter-in-law were not as tough as her and confessed immediately.

The daughter-in-law had a very good memory. She told the whole story, including the number of times she had participated in the trafficking, how many people had been trafficked, and where they were sold to.

Everyone listened carefully, and when they heard that they had actually trafficked so many people, they immediately became angry.

This time, Yi Chen didn't need to organize anyone. Everyone was firing on all cylinders, some were using their hands, some were using their feet, and some were even using their mouths when they got angry.

The thief woman might be old, and she couldn't bear the beatings and fainted.

The yamen runner next to her was experienced and quickly woke up the thief.

This time, regardless of how the three traffickers begged for mercy, County Magistrate Feng slammed the gavel and said, "The three traffickers will be temporarily imprisoned."

Then he asked the captain to take the detectives to look for the person in the place where the human trafficker said.

Look for the ones that are nearby first, then the ones that are far away.
