The eldest princess remained calm. Firstly, it was not appropriate for her to reveal her identity at this time, and secondly, she wanted to see if Old Madam Yun and Madam Su would pull her out in a moment of desperation.

And Madam Sun, she must have known her own identity.

Will they leverage their influence at this crucial moment?

After thinking for a moment, she took Yueyue's hand with one hand and stroked her belly with the other. "Mother is tired and can't stand for long. Let's go back to the carriage and wait."

Looking at her mother's slightly protruding belly, Yueyue reluctantly followed her mother.

Madam Yun looked somewhat disappointed as she watched the mother and daughter leave.

The constables in front had already raised their sticks high, and it looked like they were about to strike Xiao Youran.

Xiao Youran finally made up her mind to first deliver a bolt from the blue, smashing down the "Clear Mirror Hanging High" plaque hanging in the county government office to intimidate people.

The county magistrate wouldn't listen to the Yun family's arguments at all. On the way here, she had heard from her great-aunt that this County Magistrate Feng was the husband of Yun's sixth aunt.

No wonder, they've made up their minds to deal with that whole family!

At this point, saying anything more is useless!

Suddenly, Madam Yu scrambled to her feet and threw herself at Xiao Youran, crying, "Don't hit her!"

Then Li rushed over and stood in front of Jiang Youchen, saying, "If you want to hit someone, hit us! They're just children!"

Jiang Youchen's eyes suddenly reddened. Her aunts, actually... had always been quite kind to them, right?

At this moment, Yun Manwan also threw herself at Su Shi, "Don't hit Aunt! Aunt and the others came to Taizhou for our sake, hit me instead!"

Su: ...

Why does it feel so strange to be protected by this little niece?

The people outside exclaimed, "The Yun family is truly kind and righteous."

Upon seeing this, Old Madam Yun couldn't help but wipe away her tears.

Seeing the Yun family so united, Magistrate Feng was furious. "Pull them apart! Pull them apart! You're disrupting the court proceedings, beat all six of you!"

The bailiffs stepped forward and pulled the three men apart one by one, then pressed them down one by one onto the execution bench.

They lined up in a row, and Xiao Youran was the first one.

The bailiff in charge of administering the caning raised his stick first, then brought it down—

Just then, a loud crack was heard as something struck the baton that the constable had raised high, shattering it into pieces! The constable was also forced to stagger backward by the force of the impact.

At the same time, a deafening roar echoed from the sky!

With a creak, something wobbled.

"Quickly, get out of the way!" The people looked up and saw that the signboard above them was about to fall, so they quickly moved aside.

Then, the nails on the plaque finally came loose and fell from the top of the government office. With a crack, it fell to the ground and split in two.

Upon seeing the "Mirror Hanging High" plaque, someone exclaimed in surprise, "Oh my, it's the 'Mirror Hanging High' plaque!"

"This plaque was struck down by the heavens! Could it be that there's some great injustice involved?"

"Exactly! That's twenty strokes of the cane right off the bat, and those two are just children! A few strokes and they'll be dead!"

Madam Yun shouted from outside, "Injustice! Heaven has opened its eyes!"

The people then shouted twice, "Injustice! Heaven has opened its eyes! Injustice! Heaven has opened its eyes!"

The people inside the hall were already stunned by the bailiff's actions, but then a thunderclap struck, knocking down the plaque that read "Mirror Hanging High." Everyone's heart skipped a beat.

The chatter of the common people and the shouts of Old Madam Yun reached the hall, and the officials inside were even more frightened.

Especially County Magistrate Feng.

He was somewhat guilty about what happened today. He had repeatedly confirmed with his wife that the Yun family and the Su family mother and son who had come to the Yun family were just ordinary people before he agreed to this scheme.

He was just thinking of finding some excuse to beat the Yun family a few times, then ordering the cloth shop to be returned to Manager Liu, and that would be the end of it, as a way to vent his anger.

Even if Magistrate Sun were to arrive, he probably wouldn't refuse to give him face over such a trivial matter.

That's why when Madam Sun arrived, he righteously and sternly refused to let her in.

Aunt Yun and her little niece arrived at the yamen just as a bolt of lightning struck the sky with a loud crash, as if it had struck the eaves of the yamen.

Squeezing to the front of the crowd, she didn't see Wen Yuanbai, who had just been pushed through the door by Nan Zhuo. Instead, she saw a plaque with the words "A Clear Mirror Hangs High" lying on the ground under the door, broken in two.

She gaped in astonishment.

Completely forgetting about the two gaps in his front teeth.

Then a cold voice came from inside the door, "County Magistrate Feng has such a big official air. He wants to beat people for no reason. Even Heaven can't stand it. Even on a sunny day, it will send down a thunderbolt to warn the world. I think there must be a huge injustice in this case."

The speaker was Wen Yuanbai.

Xiao Youran raised her face and showed her big white teeth to her senior brother, Da Bai.

It's not bad that a senior disciple suddenly appears out of nowhere, is it?

Hmm... next time in such a critical moment, if she shouts into the little notebook, "Please, Senior Brother Da Bai!"

Could he fall from the sky?

Then he looked at himself with a blank expression, wondering why he had suddenly appeared there.

At that moment, he must have been thinking, "Who am I? What am I doing? Why am I here?"

Hahaha……

Uh... I got distracted.

Jiang Youchen tried to get up, but was still being held by the constables, so she had to look up and say, "Senior brother, we have really been wronged!"

County Magistrate Feng was initially taken aback by Wen Yuanbai's words and didn't know how to respond. But upon hearing Jiang Youchen's voice, he snapped out of his daze and immediately slammed his gavel, shouting, "How dare you! Who is this troublemaker who dares to obstruct my judgment?!"

Wen Yuanbai snorted coldly and nodded at Nan Zhuo.

Nan Zhuo raised his hand and waved.

A dozen or so armed guards rushed in through the door, their uniforms looking even higher than those of a county magistrate.

However, Magistrate Feng has served in Wufeng County for decades. In his earlier years, he had some ambitions, but now that he has reached this age, he is just waiting to retire in a few more years. Since he is already in his hometown, he doesn't even need to submit a memorial to return home.

As long as he doesn't commit any capital crimes, isn't he the one who calls the shots in Wufeng County?

Besides, today's matter is nothing more than making those people from the former Marquis of Yun's mansion suffer a little. It's not a big deal.

Thinking of the former Marquis Yun, he felt extremely pleased!

Back then, Yun Lao Si looked down on him so much. Even though his son inherited the marquisate and enjoyed a few years of prestige, wasn't he still stripped of his post and exiled?

His family sent him back to his hometown, which gave him this opportunity to be tempered!

He would be letting down God's arrangement if he didn't teach them a lesson!

He had heard of this young master Wen, but his true identity had never been revealed. A person without desires has nothing to fear. Even if royalty were here today, he wouldn't be afraid.

Oh no, no, no, as long as he doesn't mess with that living devil, he's not afraid of any royal relatives or nobles.

So he simply stood up and gave a perfunctory bow, asking, "What advice does the young master have for me?"

Wen Yuanbai said coldly, "I dare not presume to offer guidance. Didn't Heaven already provide guidance just now? How can you, sir, turn a blind eye?"
