Upon entering the city, Jiang Shumiao asserted with certainty that Magistrate Zheng Han was problematic.
"certainly."
With the power of chaos, she can observe the forms of all living beings.
Although it takes a bit of energy, a few good meals will make up for it.
The Great Yan Kingdom spans thousands of miles, and demons may be everywhere. It's impossible to investigate them all one by one; that would take forever.
At that time, the Protoss might even send troops directly.
Fuqu whispered, "As we've traveled along, we've seen people with simple and honest customs, and the people have praised the county magistrate a lot. He shouldn't be an evil demon."
As long as it's not for evil or harming others, Fuqu and Qianli will speak up for their kind.
Wen Zhixuan remained silent.
He still harbors prejudice against demons, but he is not as bloodthirsty as before.
Those who commit evil deeds should be dealt with, those who are stubborn and unrepentant should be killed without hesitation, and those with grievances should be dealt with leniently.
Jiang Shumiao said, "But this Zheng Han is a living person."
Wen Zhixuan spoke up this time, "Then they should be killed."
Qianli subconsciously shrank her neck and took a few steps further away from him, afraid that he might get angry and cut her down with his sword.
Jiang Shumiao was displeased. "You've done evil deeds too, why don't you commit suicide to atone for your sins?"
Wen Zhixuan choked up. Whenever similar things were brought up, Jiang Shumiao would always bring up old stories to stab him in the back.
He said helplessly, “Princess, you have compassion for all living beings, but you should also know that the world has its own laws. Anyone who is reincarnated as a non-human must have been a great villain in their previous life or some other life. Whether they are reincarnated as birds and beasts, or as flowers, grass, mountains and rocks, it is both punishment and atonement. Those who have the opportunity to cultivate and transform should wholeheartedly pursue the Dao in order to atone for their sins in their previous life. But if they rely on their cultivation to disrupt the order of the human world or do evil, they cannot be forgiven. Even if they have their reasons and can be dealt with accordingly, they will still not escape punishment.”
Ling Quchen and Zhang Daowei both agreed with this statement.
Cause and effect are cyclical and predetermined.
Just as there are distinctions of rank and status in the human world, those who are extremely wealthy and powerful must have performed great deeds in their past lives. Those who are destitute and impoverished, however, all have sins on their conscience.
Only then can balance be maintained.
Jiang Shumiao naturally understood this principle.
She simply disliked Wen Zhixuan's attitude and tone, finding them too arbitrary and lacking in human touch.
"Let's go to the government office first and get to the bottom of this."
Wen Zhixuan nodded in agreement.
Their group was quite eye-catching; each of them was good-looking and had an exceptionally outstanding demeanor, naturally attracting attention.
There were also two beautiful children.
It's strange that they're dressed so richly, yet they don't hire a carriage.
When we arrived at the government office, we found it to be quite lively.
Fuqu hurriedly went forward to inquire, and returned after a short while, saying, "The aggrieved party is an old woman who is accusing her daughter-in-law of being unfilial and mistreating her parents-in-law, and wants to divorce her."
Qianli asked curiously, "Under the laws of the human world, does a man need to go to court to divorce his wife?"
Fuqu said in a low voice, "It's because her daughter-in-law wanted her dowry back that things went to court."
Jiang Shumiao was shocked. "Doesn't the law of our dynasty explicitly state that dowry is a woman's private property, and even if she dies, it belongs to her children or is returned to her maternal family? This family is already divorcing his wife, yet they still want to seize her dowry. Is the word 'shameless' tailor-made for them?"
She was furious and, taking advantage of her short stature, forced her way in.
