The female bandit never imagined that Zhu Yunwen, the young man in front of her, was actually the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty.

This really frightened her, because the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty was a very powerful figure known throughout the entire Ming Dynasty.

At this moment, he has almost completely taken control of the entire Ming Dynasty, and his status and strength are unimaginable.

Yet this very person was robbed by him? And robbed by him twice?

It's all rather unbelievable. That's why this female bandit felt how terrifying the situation was.

She even felt her legs go weak, and could only look at Zhu Yunwen in fear and say:

"Are you the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty?"

Zhu Yunwen nodded and said, "That's right, it is me. Why don't you believe me?"

The female bandit was really incredulous, after all, it was hard to imagine how the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty could appear in such a place.

And she even robbed me twice, which is unreasonable and shouldn't have happened.

Besides, is the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty really that good-tempered? He was robbed twice by me, yet he didn't cause me any real harm?

Now, all I'm asked to do is go to the government office and go with them to give a testimony.

This is somewhat unreasonable.

Zhu Yunwen, however, put his hands behind his back and said:

“I have no reason to lie to you, and whether you believe it or not, you have to come with me, so stop talking nonsense.”

"You really are the grandson of the Ming Emperor..."

The female bandit seemed to have some certainty and asked a question, to which Zhu Yunwen simply smiled.

The poise and elegance he exuded in every gesture were something that very few people could possess.

In that instant, the female bandit also sensed a terrifying aura that was difficult to look up to.

That kind of imposing aura that makes people feel unattainable.

Only that legendary, famous grandson of the crown prince could possess such a thing, right?

Thinking of this, the female bandit, whether her legs went weak or something else, slowly knelt on the ground.

Then she said, "This humble woman was blind... I did not recognize Your Highness, please forgive me."

Zhu Yunwen waved his hand:

"Get up. I'll say it again: come with me to the county government office and act as a witness in some matters."

As for your involvement with bandits... considering that you didn't harm anyone and were cooperative, we will not pursue the matter further."

The female bandit breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

She then slowly stood up, and after standing up, she secretly glanced at Zhu Yunwen.

I hadn't looked closely before and hadn't noticed, but now that I've taken a quick glance, I realize that Zhu Yunwen is truly handsome and exceptionally brave.

Zhu Yunwen looked at the female bandit and spoke again:

"From this day forward, you must never be a bandit again. Do you understand?"

The female bandit nodded quickly and said:

"I understand, and I will never do such a thing again."

Zhu Yunwen then smiled with satisfaction:

"Although you are mountain bandits, you have never done anything bad. Moreover, you have a strong sense of righteousness, know how to make choices, know how to distinguish right from wrong, and have a higher bottom line than ordinary people. I admire this."

Therefore, after this incident, if you are willing, you will serve under me.

The female bandit and the other bandits were extremely excited. They never imagined that they would be praised by the Crown Prince and even be singled out by him to do things for him.

This is like my ancestors' graves emitting auspicious smoke! Something I never dared to dream of has actually come true.

From now on, I'll be too embarrassed to say I was a bandit, since I've been following the Crown Prince.

That concludes the matter here.

So Zhu Yunwen took the female bandit and the other bandits and went straight back to Nahekou County.

They were then placed in a secluded residence in the city.

This residence is difficult for ordinary people to find, and it is not easy to expose one's identity.

After finishing all this, Zhu Yunwen returned to the county government office.

In the room, Zhu Yunwen prepared to have a cup of tea before going to sleep.

Zhao Qingzhu, standing to the side, looked at Zhu Yunwen and said:

"Your Highness, we now have some evidence. If we let these bandits point to that middle-aged fat man and then interrogate him, we will be able to learn from him that the mastermind behind him is Old Master Sun."

"If that resolves the matter, will we proceed with the trial tomorrow?"

Zhu Yunwen laughed:

"No rush, this is just a clue. Besides, the time is not right yet, so there's no need to expose them now."

After speaking, Zhu Yunwen looked at Zhao Qingzhu with admiration:

"It's not bad that you can figure out some of the logic and connections in this."

Zhao Qingzhu chuckled smugly after being praised.

And so, another two days passed.

At Old Master Sun's residence, Old Master Sun frowned and looked at the county magistrate's registrar sitting below, saying:

“I had someone do this two days ago, but two days have passed and I haven’t heard anything from them.”

The registrar frowned: "Could it be that they haven't started yet?"

Old Sun shook his head and said:

"Absolutely not. I know how fast and efficient they are. They shouldn't be dragging their feet like this."

The registrar was silent for a moment before speaking:

"Perhaps Elder Sun could write another letter and ask that fellow what exactly happened?"
