Chapter 491: Suppressing Wei Wei?

Governor Chen wanted to go out but was afraid that the timing was inappropriate.

If he stayed, it would leave those fools on the path to their doom!

Governor Chen rubbed his swollen temples and unconsciously looked at His Highness’ face.

A single glance caused chills to rise from the bottom of his heart.

At that moment, he knew that his old subordinate was beyond saving. It might even drag him, the governor of three provinces, down.

In the great hall, Helian Wei Wei released her clenched fists and coldly chuckled at Old Master Yan, “Yan Dazhao, your capability of turning facts the other way around is really beyond imagination.” As she spoke, she stared right ahead with her burning eyes. “Since everyone is so curious as to why I am so concerned about Miss Liu Yin’s matters, I will now tell you the reason. When I first came to Fuping County to accept my official duty, I saw two big fellows dragging a lady into Yan Manor. The lady was crying her lungs out but no one dared to step up and stop them. Now let me ask you all, if Miss Liu Yin was really fond of Old Master Yan, why didn’t she enter Yan Manor happily but was dragged into it?”

The crowd went silent after hearing what she said.

“S-She stole silver from Yan Manor! That’s why I sent my men to capture her,” Yan Dazhao explained anxiously!

Helian Wei Wei then looked at him with a teasing gaze. “Yan Dazhao, if you really married a concubine who loves you the same, why would the concubine steal your silver? Based on your claims, Yan Dazhao, aren’t you a generous person?”

“I, I… She was tempted by money!” Yan Dazhao guiltily puckered his lips. “This woman of easy virtue might have hooked up with an Adonis and felt that the silver I gave her wasn’t enough, so she wanted to grab more to spend it with another man!”

“Yan Dazhao, you! Why don’t people like you drop dead!” Liu Yin shouted her lungs out.

Everyone could see her pain, the civilians were looking at each other and their gazes at Yan Dazhao showed doubts and anger!

Yan Dazhao was not bothered at all, instead, he seized the opportunity to attack Liu Yin. “My lord, please control this crazy woman. She has always hated me, I am really afraid that she would hurt me. Look at her, she looks like she wants me dead.”

The imperial officers from the provincial capital cleared their throats but said nothing, they only reminded Magistrate Liao with a gaze, signaling him to tell Yan Dazhao to control himself.

Magistrate Liao also knew that it was not good to stir up a ruckus, so he was about to stop Yan Dazhao.

However, Helian Wei Wei smirked, without delight in her eyes, “Yan Dazhao, you are really the most shameless person that I’ve ever seen. How could you simply accuse people with a fake story? I really want to see who gave you the courage to do so!”

“I don’t have that kind of courage.” Yan Dazhao glanced at Helian We Wei coldly. “Did you forget, Lord Wei? Someone has proven that I was framed just now, why are you now accusing me of making up stories to frame others? I think you are the one with a problem, Lord Wei.”

Upon hearing what he said, Liu Yin turned around and looked at the person who knelt on the ground. “Xiao Cui, do you guys really plan to let Lord Wei be a scapegoat for your sake? Who was the one who begged Lord Wei and asked Lord Wei to right the wrongs for our justice? Have you all forgotten?”

The girl named Xiao Cui quivered, her head lowered even further down as if she dared not speak at all.

Chen Liang wanted to leave the place so badly but when he arrived earlier, his boss told him to observe from aside without causing trouble.

But now, would he just simply stand aside and watch those sh*tty imperial officials set up his boss to such a muddled state?

“It’s enough Lord Wei, don’t try to think of ways to defend this Liu lady. If they really think that the betrothal money that I gave was too little, I’ll just have to give more.” As he spoke, Yan Dazhao with his bloated stomach looked down at Liu Yin arrogantly. His voice was filled with disdain as he said, “Tell me, how much silver do you want?”

Liu Yin bit her lip until it bled because of the harsh insult.

Yan Dazhao showed more and more smiles on his face, his eyes were filled with mockery when he looked at those people.

They are just a bunch of poor people yet they wanted to fight him.

They would simply overturn their own testimonials just because of some petty money!

Moreover, he had slept with two to three of their daughters!

“How about 50 silver? Is it enough?” Yan Dazhao mocked as he extended his hand and counted two silver notes before he tossed them at Liu Yin’s face.

Helian Wei Wei suddenly squinted her eyes; her voice was as cold as ice, “Yan Dazhao, I hereby warn you if you don’t stop now, I will make sure your entire extended family and clan will be buried with you.”

“Lord Wei, are you feeling bad?” Yan Dazhao laughed, “Oh right, I remembered that Lord Wei did not come from a good background either. I bet you have never seen that much silver either right? Do you want me to show you more, Lord Wei?”

“It is not necessary.” Baili Jia Jue who was quiet throughout the whole trial spoke softly. He calmly glanced at the ones who were kneeling on the floor and then locked gaze with Yan Dazhao, “Lord Wei will never be interested in your petty money.”

Yan Dazhao was confused as to why he would feel such pressure from a mere private advisor. The feeling of suffocation as if someone was strangling his neck made his scalp numb, yet he had to proceed according to the agreed plan. So, he persistently said to Helian Wei Wei, “After talking so much, how can Lord Wei prove that everything you’ve done for Liu Yin is not because of your private affairs? Is it really good for a county magistrate to handle a case like this?”

“Yan Dazhao is right.” Magistrate Liao seized the moment and said with a heavy tone, “Lord Wei, please temporarily let go of this case. It is to avoid suspicion of tipping the scale to favor your relatives. Why not decide after the other lords have carried out their investigation and see whether you can still stay in Fuping County?”

Helian Wei Wei looked asquint at Magistrate Liao, her eyes were glaring sharply. “Lord Liao, now the defendant is Yan Dazhao, not me. Besides, Liu Yin and I are clean. We have just known each other for two days, what kind of private affairs can we have? You are stopping me from working without any solid evidence? Lord Liao, have you considered the consequences?”

Consequences? Magistrate Liao chuckled coldly, “I think it should be you, Lord Wei, who should consider the consequences. Telling you to pause your work is what the people wished. Moreover, didn’t someone said that their previous accusation was to frame Yan Dazhao? Don’t be so greedy, Lord Wei. Be careful that you might not be able to round this one up!”

“My lord.” Bali Jia Jue sounded so cold that it felt like his breath was white. He then fixed his icy gaze on Magistrate Liao.

The look was extremely cold!

It froze Magistrate Liao and at that very moment, Private Advisor Long’s figure looked extremely familiar yet he was unable to recall the place he saw someone so similar before…
