Even Xu Sanguan, who was standing next to Ning Ye, was having a hard time suppressing his laughter. After all, Ning Ye looked rather comical, not to mention that it was perfectly clear that Ning Ye wasn't injured at all.
As soon as he entered the courtroom, Ning Ye lay down on the ground. Before Mahmud could even speak, Ning Ye was already wailing and crying, "My lord, I am in such a terrible state! These Turks not only smashed my shop and stole my things, but they also beat me up like this. My lord, you must do me justice!"
Mahmud's eyelids twitched. Why did this man look so shameless?
He already knew from his companions that Ning Ye wasn't injured at all, so who was he trying to impress with this pitiful look?
Even if they pretend, so what? A simple check will expose them.
After finding it amusing, Wang Mingyuan naturally realized the situation and was utterly baffled as to why Ning Ye had pulled such a stunt.
"What kind of behavior is this, shouting and yelling in court? If there is a real injustice, I will naturally uphold justice."
Ning Ye immediately began to cry, his voice sounding like a cuckoo weeping blood. It was a mystery how he managed to utter such words in such a strained voice.
Anyway, after all the procedures, Ning Ye was definitely the victim, and these Turks were the real bastards.
Wang Mingyuan cleared his throat and said, "Mahamu, Ningye, you two have conflicting accounts. How am I supposed to proceed? There are no witnesses or physical evidence whatsoever. Are you trying to make things difficult for me?"
Mahmud cupped his hands and said, "Sir, it shouldn't be too difficult to tell who is lying about this matter. Just check whether the injuries on these people are real or fake, and I believe the truth will come out."
Wang Mingyuan glanced at Ning Ye, his eyes seeming to ask, "Kid, do you have any backup plans? You might die if you get checked out."
Ning Ye simply blinked twice, as if to say, "Don't worry, it's all good."
Since that was the case, Wang Mingyuan immediately ordered people to examine Ning Ye's injuries. However, after the white cloth was removed layer by layer, it was discovered that Ning Ye did indeed have injuries.
Moreover, judging from the appearance of the injury, it was not light at all. Even Mahamu was surprised and hurriedly stepped forward. But no matter how he looked at it, he could only conclude that Ning Ye's injury was indeed genuine.
Now it was Xu San's turn to be dumbfounded. After all, Ning Ye had only asked him for a room before coming in, and even the white cloth was brought by Ning Ye himself.
But Ning Ye was all smiles and full of energy when he walked with him, and he didn't look injured at all. How come he was covered in injuries after coming out of the house? Even if he hit himself, there were some places he couldn't have hit.
Wang Mingyuan didn't care what was going on and directly rebuked, "Mahamut, your men have gone too far. Beating our people like this on our own land, I don't think your delegation came here with sincerity."
Mahmud quickly said, "Sir, this kid might have deliberately let someone beat him up, but ours is genuinely injured. How could the injuries on his body be fake?"
"Since neither of you can produce any evidence right now, I think it's best to end this here for today. If either of you can produce evidence, then come back to me. Otherwise, I don't have that much time to waste with you."
Wang Mingyuan ran away very quickly, not giving Mahmud any chance to speak before turning around and slipping away.
Mahmud's hands, hidden in his wide sleeves, clenched slightly. Could it be that he had really been deceived? Had his men not told him the truth?
His gaze swept over the people around him, then settled on the unconscious Turk on the ground. With no idea what was going on, Mahmud could only head back home.
After Mahamu left, Ningye jumped up from the ground, showing no signs of injury whatsoever.
Because Ning Ye's injuries were just a disguise, but the disguise was so sophisticated that it was difficult to detect with the naked eye unless the wound was cut open with a knife.
It was only at times like this that Ning Ye would properly thank his system.
Ning Ye dusted himself off and said, "Master Xu, I think everything's fine now. I'll be going now. Call me if you need anything else."
Xu Sanguan pulled Ning Ye aside and said, "No, what's wrong with you? Are you injured or not? If you are, don't try to tough it out."
Ning Ye immediately threw a punch, saying, "Don't worry, these few Turks are no match for me. I'll just make a show of it so you can explain yourselves."
"You're quite something, kid. No wonder the adults think so highly of you. If you're all right, then go back now. But keep up the act when you go out. Behave yourself for the next few days."
"Don't worry, I'm not that naive. I know exactly what to do."
Ning Ye left the county government office looking like he had suffered greatly. Only after he walked out did Xu Sanguan realize that this kid probably had more than just a plan.
They were fine when they came to the county government, but they turned out like this when they left. What are the people supposed to think?
If Wang Mingyuan doesn't stand firmly on Ning Ye's side in this matter, his reputation in Qingyuan County will probably be irreparable.
Upon returning to the mansion, Ning Ye immediately summoned Wang Wu and instructed him to strengthen security around the area in the coming days, ensuring that the Turks had no opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
As it turned out, Ning Ye's arrangement worked, after all, two people sneaked into the mansion that very night.
However, the reason these two were able to sneak in was because Wang Wu gave the order to let them in alive. Otherwise, they could have been subdued the moment they entered Qingmei Village.
The two headed straight for the inner courtyard, their goal clear: to find Ning Ye.
Unfortunately, when they reached the lobby, all the lights suddenly came on, and they realized that they were surrounded by a huge crowd, with people looking at them with mocking expressions as if they were watching a joke.
The two were dressed in black, and even a fool could tell what they were there for.
