The Female Assistant of Wei Yuyan Shuangfei

After a night of clouds and rain, the fresh air filled Laigu County with golden light from the morning glow, as if it was about to witness an earth-shaking change in Laigu County.

Cao Yue fastened Cao Zhen's belt, and then put her arm around his waist, saying coquettishly, "My husband! Today, you will definitely encounter many obstacles when the court opens. My husband was promoted by Mr. Xie, and we will all prosper together and suffer together. My husband cannot be immune to this."

Cao Zhen lowered his head slightly, kissed Cao Yue's forehead gently and said, "I see. I've been nagging you all night. You have panda eyes. Go get some sleep!"

"I am waiting for my husband to come down from the yamen." Cao Yue loosened her arms as she spoke, bowed and said, "I wish my husband success in his endeavor."

"Okay!~"

Cao Zhen replied with a smile, his tone full of determination without hesitation.

He picked up the sword next to him, and just as he went out, he saw Song Zhen and a group of prisoners waiting outside the yard.

"Captain Cao!" Song Zhen stroked his hands, then looked at Cao Yue behind Cao Zhen and said, "Morning, sister-in-law."

"You two! After today, the situation in Gu County will definitely change. I wish you two a safe return."

"I would like to borrow your good words, sister-in-law."

"Go back!" Cao Zhen waved his hand and led Song Zhen and a group of prisoners to the county government office.

On the other side, in the government office.

Zhao Zhen and Yan Shuang were having a meal when they saw a servant walking quickly towards them and bowing to them.

"Sir! Just now, the county government sent someone to report that the court will open at 3:45 today. Captain Qi is requested to come out."

Zhao Zhen waved his hand to signal the visitor to leave, then looked at Yan Shuang with a playful smile and said, "Kejun! If this matter is settled sooner, we can return to the capital. If you have nothing to do now, why don't you go and take a look?"

"All right!"

"Kejun still understands me."

Zhao Zhen nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Qi Yue and said, "Captain Qi! You just need to follow Lord Xie's instructions."

"Yes!~"

While Qi Yue was speaking, he looked at his master again, and said with a hint of worry, "Master! I cannot pay attention to what is happening outside after I go to class. Please do not get too close to the crowd. After all, there are too few guards at the moment, and it is difficult for me to guarantee your safety without you."

"You talk as if you can guarantee my safety just by being by my side." Zhao Zhen couldn't help but sneer.

Qi Yue's flattery failed, he touched his nose happily, then bowed and saluted before hurriedly leaving the government office and heading towards the county government office.

As soon as the third shift of yamen runners arrived at the yamen, Sun Cheng ordered them to go out and beat drums and gongs to publicize that at three quarters past noon today, the case of the corpse hidden in Zhang's house, the case of the Ten Murderers in Mangdang Mountain, and the case of the county lieutenant killing an imperial official would be heard.

The three cases were more shocking than the last, which set off a wave of enthusiasm in Laigu County. Thousands of onlookers had already surrounded the government office.

“Squeak!~”

The gate of the county government's courtyard opened in response, and a bailiff looked at the huge crowd in front of him and couldn't help swallowing.

"Brother Cha! Has it started? Let us in quickly so we can see more clearly inside."

"Yes! Let us in quickly. We are the first to arrive today."

"......"Everyone was talking at once.

The yamen runners were a little scared when they saw this scene, but due to the pressure from the head of the court, Sun, they calmed down and said in a deep voice: "Since there is limited space in the hall, your Excellency has ordered the following people to enter and listen in."

The crowd instantly fell silent, and the yamen runner also moistened his throat and said loudly: "You can enter from the three townships and seven villages."

As soon as the bailiff finished speaking, he saw several old men being escorted forward by a group of strong men. After being confirmed by other bailiffs, they were let in.

Among them, Cao Shuang, the head of Caojiazhuang, was the most proud. He was supported by several people and walked in the front. After all, it was Caojiazhuang that gave birth to Captain Cao.

"Yuelai Inn, Jixiang Silver Shop, Xuanhe Winery..., Jihonglou, Xinglefang. The shopkeepers of 20 shops are here, and you can come in if you come."

Just as the bailiff finished speaking, dozens of people squeezed out from the crowd, each presented a seal to confirm their identity, and were led in by the bailiffs beside them.

The crowd suddenly became noisy, and the bailiff quickly reached out to comfort them, saying, "Everyone...everyone please be at ease. It's okay if you can't get in. The gate of the county yamen is open today, and you can see and hear the process of Mr. Xie hearing the case."

The crowd wanted to argue for a few words, but when they saw the six bailiffs guarding the door were about to draw their swords, the noisy crowd fell silent for a moment.

Zhao Zhen, who happened to be there, saw this scene clearly. He couldn't help but feel unhappy and said, "Kejun! If you had known that Miss Xie was going to do this, you should have asked her for a few places."

"Young Master! This is the county government office. Don't you realize that the identities of the people entering are problematic?" Yan Shuang said with a wry smile.

Zhao Zhen did not understand the deep meaning of Yan Shuang's words, and said with a hint of dissatisfaction: "What identity? Is their identity higher than mine..."

"Two young masters." The bailiff stepped forward and bowed as he spoke.

"What's the matter?" Yan Shuang took a step forward and blocked Zhao Zhen's sight with his body, with a hint of defensiveness in his words.

The yamen runner naturally sensed Yan Shuang's hostility, and hurriedly leaned over and said, "Miss, let me wait outside. If Master Yan comes, lead me into the inner courtyard through the side door."

"Look, Miss Xie is the most considerate." Zhao Zhen had a double-standard expression, which made the servants next to him unable to bear to look at him.

The bailiff led a group of people and successfully entered the inner courtyard through the side door. As soon as they entered the inner courtyard, they saw twenty or thirty people of various shapes and sizes tied to the pillars nearby.

Zhao Zhen took a quick look and couldn't help but shuddered and asked, "Who are these people?"

Song Zhen, who was sitting next to him, raised his eyes and looked at Zhao Zhen. He said without hesitation, "He is a prisoner now, but he will soon become a dead man."

"This is really too tragic." Zhao Zhen urged the bailiff to lead the way quickly with a look of disgust on his face.

Although Zhao Zhen's expression showed disdain, he was also terrified in his heart. On the other hand, the guards had already lost their minds, and only Yan Shuang's expression remained calm.

It was nothing more than the fact that these twenty or thirty people looked so miserable. Not to mention their disheveled hair and dirty faces, their legs alone were already wrapped in gauze stained blood red.

Han Qi, the only one who still looked somewhat human, did not receive any special treatment, but his feet were bound by a chain weighing ten kilograms.

These people had difficulty even walking, let alone escaping.

However, what they didn't expect was that all these operations were handed over to the Fuwei Escort Agency by Xie Shuting.

At first, the escorts were reluctant, but after several encounters with the bandits, they realized that this method was very effective. Not to mention the deterrent effect, it was very effective in preventing the enemy from escaping.

Even if the enemy retreats, these soldiers with injured legs would be a burden if they were carried along, but not carrying them would fail to demonstrate their righteousness.

As a result, every time the Fuwei Escort Agency was escorting a caravan, if they passed through a territory inhabited by bandits, everyone would tacitly agree not to harass each other.
