"I won't dare to do it again. Please, let me go." Chen Chao was so scared that he squatted on the ground, holding his head and not daring to face Lan Zhi.
Everyone was shocked! It turned out that Shen Chao really did it.
"I can't believe that this handsome man like Shen Chao could do such a vicious thing."
"Yes, it's a pity that Mr. Lan's daughter was killed by him." Someone sighed.
"Didn't he just deny it? Why did he suddenly change his mind? It's really strange."
"Maybe he suddenly felt guilty." Someone replied.
There were many people in the crowd who were just there to watch the fun.
Father Lan's eyes were red. He grabbed Shen Chao by the collar and said through gritted teeth: "It was you who wanted to marry her in the first place, why didn't you treat her well."
"At least let her live."
He felt extremely sad that his beloved daughter was treated like this.
Shen Chao was immersed in fear, and even when Lan's father pulled him, he didn't react at all.
Lan Zhi looked at her father's tearful face and felt extremely regretful. She cried, "Daddy, it's all my fault for not listening to you. I am an unfilial daughter."
But Lan's father couldn't see this scene.
Old Madam Shen rushed to Lan's father, pushed him away, and shouted, "Stop it! How dare you grab my son? It's your daughter who has to marry my son because she wants to die."
"Your daughter deserves what has happened to her. It's because she couldn't even give birth to a son. My son has his reasons for doing this."
Hearing this vicious speech, Lan's father was so angry that his chest hurt and he almost fell down. His hand trembled as he pointed at her, "You..."
"Master, you have to hold on." Lan's mother hurriedly supported Lan's father and helped him calm down.
Lan Zhi wanted to go forward and hold him, but her hands passed through his body. She was extremely anxious.
At this time, Qiu Er walked directly towards Old Madam Shen and grabbed her hair from behind, "You damn old woman, you are the one who bullied our young lady. I will beat you to death."
"Someone come quickly, hold her for me." She still thought they were in the Shen Mansion, and everyone had to listen to her.
Qiu'er was very strong, and seemed to be seeking revenge for her young lady, so she grabbed Old Madam Shen's hair and pulled it.
"Someone's going to kill someone." Old Madam Shen screamed in pain.
Old Madam Shen brought this upon herself and deserved it. No one was willing to step forward to help her.
The scene was chaotic for a while.
Finally, Prefect Lin couldn't stand it anymore and ordered the bailiffs to pull them apart.
"Someone, come and pull them apart quickly." He didn't want anyone to die in court.
Several yamen runners pulled Qiu'er and Old Madam Shen apart.
Seeing that it was Qiu'er who was pulling her hair, Old Madam Shen angrily scolded: "You bitch, you are as lowly as your dead lady."
Qiu Er was so angry that she almost rushed over again, "Who are you calling a bitch?"
"You bitch, I'm calling you that." Old Madam Shen cursed so vigorously that she didn't even notice what she said.
The people around burst into laughter after hearing this, and Madam Shen's face looked extremely ugly.
[Hahaha, Qiu'er not only protects her master, but also says such interesting things]
[Look at this old lady Shen, her face is red with anger]
Lan Zhi was stunned by this scene. She didn't dare to confront Old Madam Shen directly before, but now Qiu'er would actually do this for her.
"Quiet, this is a court, not a place for you to fight." Following Mo Linyuan's eye signal, Magistrate Lin decided to end the case.
My lord, I am doing what you said. When the time comes, please say a few good words for me in front of the emperor. Prefect Lin looked at Mo Linyuan.
But Mo Linyuan didn't buy his trick at all and didn't even glance at him.
Prefect Lin had no choice but to resolve the matter as soon as possible.
"Chen Chao, you plotted to murder Lan, do you know your crime?" Prefect Lin slammed the gavel with great momentum.
Chen Chao stared at Prefect Lin with a dull look, then slowly knelt down. "I admit my guilt."
He didn't dare to deny it because Lan Zhi was still staring at him.
Prefect Lin stroked his beard and said, "Come here, take Shen Chao away and put him in jail. He will be executed at 3:30 pm tomorrow."
It’s over, it’s really over now, Shen Chao thought.
After a while, the bailiff walked forward, picked up Shen Chao from the ground, and dragged him away.
"My son, my son, what should I do after you leave?" Old Madam Shen fell to the ground, crying heartbreakingly.
Qiu'er said to Lan's mother, "Madam, Shen Chao has finally been arrested. The young lady can rest in peace now."
Lan's mother wiped the tears from her eyes with a handkerchief and looked at Lan's father beside her: "Master, did you see that? We finally avenged our daughter."
Father Lan nodded: "I have been looking forward to this day for a long time, and finally it has come."
Among the crowd watching the excitement, someone shouted, "Good catch, Shen Chao killed someone, he should be executed."
"Yes, this time it was thanks to our little princess who was very observant that the bad guys didn't get a chance to take advantage of us."
Everyone nodded in understanding.
If it weren't for the little princess bringing the token, the case would have been successfully solved.
[I really don’t deserve it, even though I helped Lan Zhi]
[This is also her own contribution]
However, she was so happy to hear everyone praising her like this.
Mu Nanyan couldn't help but smile, her face was full of smiles.
"Ah, the little princess is smiling. It seems that she agrees with us."
"The little princess is only half a year old, and she is so smart and clever. She is a blessing to our Nanzhao Kingdom."
When Prefect Lin heard the discussions of the people, he wiped his non-existent sweat. Fortunately, he was very obedient and did not make a wrong judgment. Otherwise, he would have almost lost his official hat.
After the case was over, everyone walked out of the yamen.
Just as Mo Linyuan was about to step out, Lan's father called him back, "Sir, please let me have a word with the princess."
