Yinzhen calmed the bitterness in his heart, then looked at the young man and said to him, "Tell me your case. If you are in the right, I will naturally not let you be wronged. Under the emperor's nose, it is still a place where reason prevails."

He said this with a calm and composed expression, which was very convincing.

The boy in the wheelchair was somewhat moved by what he heard.

Upon hearing this, the surrounding people also began to chatter amongst themselves.

“What this young master says is right. Under the emperor’s nose, and with His Majesty’s benevolence, no one dares to disregard etiquette and law. If you have any grievances, just speak them out.”

"That's right, that's right. Don't worry, although we are just ordinary people, we can still speak the truth in court."

...

The people spoke very sincerely and honestly, and although their credibility remains to be seen, it was indeed touching.

The boy then slowly began to speak.

"My surname is Mo, my given name is Mo Chenyu, and I'm from Shandong..."

Mo Chenyu learned carpentry from his elders at a young age. He could play with wood with great skill. Once, he went to Jiangnan with his uncle to work for a wealthy family, and he caught the eye of the young lady of that family.

Mo Chenyu was oblivious to love and, being completely absorbed in his relationship with the girl, naturally refused. Later, somehow Yang Huaidan, who was in love with the girl, found out about it.

This Yang Huaidan is the wealthy young man who blocked him today.

At that time, Mo Chenyu had no idea that he would provoke such a person, so he was naturally unprepared and was lured to a secluded place where his legs were broken.

After learning the reason, his uncle quickly took him back to Shandong, since although his family was a well-known carpenter family in Shandong, they dared not run into officials.

Mo Chenyu had already resigned himself to his bad luck with his leg. Although he was obsessed with woodworking, he also knew that if he continued to fuss over it, with the power of Yang Huaidan's family, they could easily wipe out the entire Yang family.

After he resigned himself to his misfortune, Yang Huaidan married the young lady he admired. When the Mo family learned of this, they regarded it as a thing of the past.

Mo Chenyu himself didn't care anymore. A year passed, and Mo Chenyu's leg couldn't be cured. All the doctors said that he would never be able to stand up again in his life.

He gave up. Despite his youthful appearance, he was actually twenty years old. During the year he lost his leg, he made a wheelchair that could move automatically by hand.

He came to the capital this time because he heard that the Ninth Prince of the current dynasty was good at business, so he came to seek refuge with him. After all, no matter how good the wheelchair is, they still need to be alive to do this business.

Mo Chenyu was cunning and had already arranged a meeting with the Ninth Prince, but Yang Huaidan, who had come to the capital for some unknown reason, found out about it and then directly persecuted the middleman that the Mo family had found.

Having heard about the wheelchair's wonderful uses, he wanted to take it for himself. Mo Chenyu naturally refused and tried to avoid it, which led to the scene on the street today.

After Mo Chenyu finished speaking, everyone around him was deeply moved, and their gazes toward Yang Huaidan were like knives.

Whether Yang Huaidan was genuinely stupid or had powerful backers, he became increasingly arrogant, saying, "So what if I did it? You don't actually dare to arrest me, do you? Let's see who dares."

Mo Chenyu's words indirectly proved that Yang Huaidan was indeed Cao's grandson.

As soon as Yang Huaidan finished speaking, Mo Chenyu said with a stern face, "Thank you all for saving me today. There is no need to offend people for the sake of a useless person like me. If others suffer because of me, then it is my fault."

After he said this, the surrounding people couldn't help but sigh at the boy's thoughtfulness. It was such a pity that such a good child was "ruined" by a spoiled brat.

However, what he said was not wrong. Although it was under the emperor's nose, those officials had many ways to make people speechless.

After asking his question, Yinzhen's gaze toward Mo Chenyu began to look a little strange. After listening to so much from him, he seemed to be a smart man. How could such a perceptive and intelligent person allow a spoiled brat to block his way?

If what he said is true, that he was tricked and had his leg broken without his knowledge, and now that he has come to the capital, he will naturally be cautious and careful. What he did today seems a bit deliberate.

These are just Yinzhen's guesses, and it's also possible that Mo Chenyu was indeed unlucky.

However, having such bad luck at Wangyue Tower, Yinzhen couldn't help but overthink things.

Tong Cheng'er was indignant upon hearing this. What kind of people are these! They bully others with their power and dare to act so recklessly, as if they want everyone to know that they have committed crimes.

Tong Cheng'er: "Don't worry, today I'll see who dares to act arrogantly under the guise of power in the capital. His Majesty is benevolent and will certainly not tolerate such despicable behavior."

After she finished speaking, Yang Huaidan burst into laughter: "I'll be waiting."

Upon hearing this, the young man looked at Tong Cheng'er, scrutinized her carefully, his expression changed slightly, then returned to normal, and no one noticed his unusual behavior.

He said with a rather helpless tone, "Thank you for speaking up for me, young master, but it's really unnecessary for me to offend anyone."

Upon hearing this, Tong Cheng'er felt genuinely sorry for the person, but also recognized that he was indeed a kind-hearted individual. Even at a time like this, he still knew how to think of others; even a saint wouldn't be more considerate!

"Don't worry, your grievances will definitely be redressed."

After saying that, she glanced at Yinzhen.

Yinzhen nodded.

If there is a real injustice, then of course one should seek justice. But today's events are just too coincidental. He didn't tell anyone about his whereabouts, so people like the Mo family shouldn't be able to find out about him.

It looks like something that just happened by chance.

Perhaps he's overthinking it.

At this moment, the officials from the yamen arrived.

The person at the head of the group walked up to Yinzhen and Tong Cheng'er, knelt down and said, "This servant greets Fourth Master."

Because Tong Cheng'er was dressed as a man, the man didn't point it out directly, but only greeted Yinzhen.

Yinzhen: "Get up."

"Thank you, Fourth Master."

"You should know what happened. Take the person back and interrogate them thoroughly. I don't want any coercion or bribery. Also, protect this Young Master Mo."

The officials in the government office all looked respectful upon hearing this, but they felt extremely annoyed inside.

They had already heard about the matter on their way here, and they had a good idea of ​​right and wrong, but... well, sometimes in officialdom, you can't just act based on right and wrong.

They were just low-ranking officials running errands in the government office, but even these low-ranking officials knew that the emperor's wet nurse's grandson was not someone to be trifled with.

The crowd noticed something was amiss. The people in the government office were treating him with such respect; could it be that they had some kind of powerful background?

The official from the yamen replied, "Yes, Fourth Master."

Although no one knew who the Fourth Master was, they were certain that he was someone of great importance.

Yang Huaidan noticed something was wrong with the situation. How could the officials really dare to arrest people? Back in the Jiangnan region, no one dared to do this.

Before coming to the capital, his uncle repeatedly told him to be more discreet, as there were many people in the capital he shouldn't mess with. He remembered this and didn't mess with anyone in the capital, but rather with people he could definitely afford to offend.

It feels like I've kicked a hornet's nest!

Yang Huaidan couldn't help but feel uneasy.
