"Miao Hongye, you may not know, but Miao Village no longer exists. From the moment you stepped into the county government office, the imperial guards secretly went to Miao Village and captured all the bandits. So you have no right to talk back to me here!"

"What? The imperial court secretly sent soldiers to the Miao village to encircle and annihilate them?" Miao Hongye was dumbfounded.

"That's right! Otherwise, why do you think I would dare to treat you like this?"

Rong Sheng was also stunned. How could the imperial court send people to suppress the bandits in Miao Village so quickly?

System: "This is the power of your future husband!"

"Future husband?" Rong Sheng's gaze unconsciously turned to Gu Beiyi, just as Gu Beiyi's eyes also fell on her. Rong Sheng didn't care whether Rong Dong'an would notice, and asked in lip reading, "Gu Sanniu, did you send people to besiege the bandits in Miao Village?"

Gu Beiyi clearly saw the question in Rong Sheng's eyes and the words she uttered. He hesitated for a moment and then nodded.

Holy crap!!

My future husband is so powerful? He can command soldiers? Who is he...?

But now was not the time to discuss this matter, so Rong Sheng suppressed all her questions and silently looked away, focusing her gaze on the scene in the courtroom.

At this moment, the magistrate ordered the bailiffs to separate Qi Weiwu, Miao Hongye, and Du Qincai, forbidding them from continuing to make a scene, and the scene immediately quieted down.

After things quieted down, the magistrate asked Gu Daniu and Gu Erniu, "Do you brothers know that you are not Gu Changqing's sons, but Qi Weiwu's sons? If you don't want to suffer physical pain, you'd better tell the truth! Otherwise, open your eyes and see how miserable Qi Weiwu and the others are."

Gu Daniu and Gu Erniu: "..."

Gu Daniu: "Your Excellency, I know. I've known since I was a child that we are not Gu Changqing's sons, but Qi Weiwu's sons! It's just that my mother said that Miao Hongye is too vicious and cruel, and that her father is a bandit. She told us to behave ourselves, otherwise we brothers would have already returned to our ancestral home!"

Gu Daniu was the kind of person who thrived on chaos, so how could he miss such a good opportunity? Therefore, he told everyone everything.

Gu Erniu was initially hesitant, but after thinking about it carefully, he realized that Gu Changqing was so timid and incompetent, while Qi Weiwu was so capable and was the village head of Shanggui Village, making him many times better than Gu Changqing.

So Gu Erniu said, "As I know, when I was a child, I often went with my older brother to Shanggui Village to look for our biological father!"

"Very good!" Zuo Li was very satisfied!

If Gu Daniu and Gu Erniu knew about the wicked things Qi Weiwu and Du Qincai had done, they wouldn't have said those things.

Unfortunately, they didn't know that their words had sent Du Qincai and Qi Weiwu to the deepest hell, the very depths of hell.

Qi Weiwu and Du Qincai looked ashen-faced and said nothing more. Things had come to this point, and no matter how eloquent they were, it would be useless.

The magistrate has gathered all the evidence, and the Miao village has been besieged by government troops. Whether or not they succeed, they cannot escape.

So from then on, no matter what the county magistrate asked Gu Daniu and Gu Erniu, they ignored him.

But Gu Daniu and Gu Erniu were getting increasingly puzzled, because Chai and Hui hadn't told them everything. The courtroom was so noisy; Zuo Li could tolerate it for a while, but not forever. So Chai and Hui hadn't told them about Gu Sanniu yet.

Therefore, both Chai and Hui were terrified when they heard Gu Daniu and Gu Erniu say these words!

Even a fool could tell that when they got home, their brothers would beat and berate them mercilessly, and the days ahead would be anything but pleasant.

"Very well! Gu Daniu, Gu Erniu, you brothers are very sensible. Now, let me ask you again, is the reason why Gu Sanniu became a jinx related to your parents, your biological parents?"

"Of course he is! Everyone knows what kind of person Gu Changqing is. How could he possibly do such a thing?" Gu Daniu said, then quickly covered his mouth, realizing that things had gone wrong.

But it was too late!

Because Zuo Li then directly judged the case, concluding that Du Qincai and Qi Weiwu had conspired to kill Old Master Gu, beat Gu Changqing's sister to death, kill a child, and use the deaths of others to frame Gu Sanniu.

This cleared Gu Sanniu's name and completely washed away his infamous reputation as a jinx!

"I never imagined things would turn out this way. It's all because of that vicious woman, Du Qincai, and Qi Weiwu. If it weren't for them, how could the Gu family have suffered so much? Old Master Gu wouldn't have died of illness, Gu Changqing's sister wouldn't have been beaten to death, that poor child wouldn't have been drowned, and Gu Sanniu wouldn't have carried the stigma of being a jinx for twenty years!"

"They should be beheaded or exiled, so that even in death they will regret all the wicked things they did while alive!"

"If Grandpa Gu, Gu Changqing's sister, and that poor child have spirits in heaven, they must torment and frighten them in their sleep, making them never have peace! Otherwise, it would be a disservice to their tragic deaths!"

"Oh, Gu Sanniu is so pitiful! Just because Du Qincai and Qi Weiwu were having an affair, he saw it and his life was ruined! Fortunately, his name was cleared, otherwise Gu Sanniu would have carried the bad name of a jinx for the rest of his life!"

Seeing this scene, Rong Sheng was overjoyed. Now that Gu San Niu no longer had the bad reputation of being a jinx, she could spend more time with her future husband.

It wouldn't upset anyone, so at this moment, Rong Sheng was extremely excited, her eyes shining brightly.

They were of one mind; Gu Beiyi thought the same thing.

But Rong Dong'an's mood became complicated and heavy. He decided that when he got home, he would have a good talk with his four sons and tell them to pay attention to Gu Sanniu. It would be best to find a way to drive Gu Sanniu out of their house so that he would not appear in front of them and make them feel bad.

After convicting them, they didn't immediately make them sign anything; instead, they brought the old gambler to court.

Once inside the courtroom, the old gambler became utterly cowardly. He answered every question the magistrate posed truthfully, based entirely on information given to him by the man in black, ensuring he didn't expose them. Thus, the old gambler's appearance completely shattered the Gu family's spirits.

Du Qincai, in particular, collapsed at this moment, as if she were about to be executed, unable to utter a single word.

I was filled with regret!

But it's too late to regret it now.

It was all too late.

After the crimes were established, Zuo Li threw everyone into prison. As for the punishment, it had to be reported to the imperial court for a decision, because the nature of the crime was too heinous, and Qi Weiwu and Miao Hongye had an inextricable connection with the bandits of Miaojia Village. This matter was not something he could decide on his own.
