The woman seemed to have just noticed Chen An and his group of awe-inspiring people, and couldn't help but wonder, "Xing'er, who are they?"
"They are nobles from Fengshen Sect. Sister-in-law, what happened to my brother?" Xing'er's eyes turned red with anxiety.
Then, a little boy ran out and said, "Aunt, aunt, my father was captured by bad guys. They said he stole the treasures from the immortals."
Chen An didn't expect that he would come at such a coincidence and actually encounter such an old-fashioned act of bullying innocent people.
When Xing'er's sister-in-law heard that Chen An was a noble from the Fengshen Sect, she immediately ran out and knelt before him: "Immortal, please save my husband. He has been wronged. I am just a commoner. I don't even know what immortal things look like, how dare I steal them?"
Xing'er's eyes were also red, and she called out in a pleading tone: "Your Majesty..."
At this moment, Duan Chi frowned and whispered, "Your Majesty, our Fengshen Sect and the government have always kept their distance from each other. Moreover, the government has its own laws, and they will not listen to us. The Sect Master has issued a strict order not to interfere in the affairs of the government, and the government is also not allowed to interfere in the affairs of our Fengshen Sect."
Unexpectedly, Duan Chi's reminder made Chen An's eyes light up: "What will happen if I take care of it?"
Duan Chi was stunned. Why did it feel like the monarch became excited after he said that?
Duan Chi had no choice but to say, "Your Majesty, the government has its own rules. They won't listen to us, even if Your Majesty comes in person."
Duan Chi almost said that even Chen An's status as a monarch would not be of any use.
Chen An inexplicably asked again: "Is it the master's strict order?"
"Yes, it's the master's strict order." Duan Chi nodded, and suddenly he had a bad feeling in his heart.
Especially seeing Chen An's bright eyes, Duan Chi said nervously: "Your Majesty, this absolutely cannot happen. Once a precedent is set, it will be out of control!"
Chen An, however, had a serious expression on his face: "Duan Chi, is this simply a matter for the government? Xing'er is from our Fengshen Sect, and Xing'er's brother is half a member of the Fengshen Sect. This is our Fengshen Sect's business. Let's go and ask the government!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Xing'er's red eyes immediately shed tears of excitement.
Staring blankly at Chen An, he felt even more ashamed, especially when he remembered that he had once sued Chen An!
Now, Chen An wanted to help her righteously, and for a moment, Xing'er couldn't stop crying!
As for Xing'er's sister-in-law, she immediately kowtowed repeatedly: "Thank you, Immortal, thank you, Immortal..."
"Okay, get up and go to the government office!"
Chen An waved his hand, turned around and got into the chariot.
Xing'er, her sister-in-law and nephew followed behind the sedan chair.
Duan Chi had no choice but to lead the team to the Longan Garrison, which was the official agency of Longan Town.
…
Outside the garrison, Chen An's team has arrived.
Xing'er took her sister-in-law Liu Guihua to the drum outside the garrison, picked up the drumsticks, and started beating them.
Bang bang...
The sound of the drum was so loud that it immediately attracted countless people to watch.
Liu Guihua knocked and cried, "It's unfair... It's unfair to me... It's unfair to Yang Gui!"
If it was an ordinary person beating the drum, the guards would probably have driven the person away.
But today, the guards of the garrison rushed in to report, because the people who appeared outside the garrison looked not to be trifled with.
There were dozens of sword-wielding guards riding on purple leopards, looking very majestic.
The chariot in the middle, as luxurious as a small house, already shows the extraordinary status of the person inside.
What's more, the carriage was pulled by two dragon horses, which were rare and exotic beasts that were rarely seen by the princes and nobles of the Tianyue Dynasty.
Soon, the gate of the garrison opened.
A fat man wearing the official robe of the Tianyue Dynasty walked out from inside, accompanied by a dozen guards.
Wu Taizhang, the garrison commander of Long'an Town, was somewhat annoyed. He was sleeping soundly when he was woken up by the sound of drums.
"Who are you, how dare you beat the drum!" Wu Taizhang shouted angrily.
Liu Guihua was about to kneel down and protest, but Xing'er, with Chen An as her backer, pulled Liu Guihua back and said, "Sister-in-law, don't kneel. We are here to protest and seek justice!"
Common people like Liu Guihua felt inferior to officials, and even when being pulled by Xing'er, their legs felt weak.
"Sir, I am Yang Gui's wife. I am here to speak up for my husband. He has been wrongly accused!"
Liu Guihua's voice was trembling and she seemed afraid.
Wu Taizhang looked at Liu Guihua with a cold expression: "Yang Gui's case has been investigated and there is no injustice. You are here to cry out for injustice and disrupt the rules of the government office. You will be punished with twenty strokes of the cane!"
Chen An had been sitting in the sedan chair, watching the movement at the gate of the garrison, when he heard this.
Chen An frowned and convicted Liu Guihua without asking any detailed questions!
Seeing that Liu Guihua was about to be held and beaten with a stick, Chen An said coldly: "Duan Chi, bring that garrison commander over here!"
Although Duan Chi felt embarrassed, he still passed the order on.
Immediately, several divine guards rushed forward.
The powerful cultivation of the Imperial Divine Guards is far beyond the reach of the few guards in the Garrison.
Wu Taizhang was pulled directly to Chen An's chariot.
Bang!
With a dull thud, Wu Taizhang was kicked to his knees in front of Chen An's car.
Chen An looked at Wu Taizhang coldly from the car window: "The governor is so majestic."
At this moment, Wu Taizhang panicked. He really thought that the people from Fengshenmen were just watching the show.
"I dare not. I, the garrison commander, make impartial judgments. Even if I appear to be awe-inspiring, that is the majestic law of the imperial court. Please understand, sir!" Although Wu Taizhang was panicked, he was not very afraid. After all, he represented the imperial court!
Chen An smiled slightly, "I think you made a mistake in your judgment. Please review the Yang Gui case and I will observe!"
Wu Taizhang's expression changed slightly: "Sir, are you from the Fengshen Sect?"
"That's right." Chen An nodded.
"The imperial court and Fengshenmen have always done their own thing and have not interfered with each other. Your Excellency has broken the rules!" Although Wu Taizhang was kneeling on the ground, he was neither humble nor arrogant. He did not think that the people of Fengshenmen could interfere in the affairs of the government!
Chen An had already walked down the mountain. Looking at the onlookers, he clasped his fists and said, "I've heard that the people around Fengshen Sect have suffered countless injustices and hardships. I, the Sect Master of Fengshen Sect, have often blamed myself for not protecting the people around us. Today, the Sect Master has mercifully ordered me to come down the mountain to inspect. If you have any grievances, please tell me in detail, and I will definitely seek justice for you!"
When these words were spoken, Jiang Yan and Duan Chi were stunned. When did their leader give such an order!
