Xiaoman nodded: "Okay, let's wait until tomorrow!"
Time passed quickly and it was the next day. Bai Jia had brought Baoer to the gate of the government office. After looking at Baoer, Bai Jia walked forward.
He took the big drum and started beating it. This drum had never been struck since it was set up, but it actually struck today and the court session began soon.
The prefect came out and frowned when he saw a woman with a child. "Who is this person? Tell me your name."
Bai Jia knelt down directly: "I am the eldest daughter of the Bai family in Kyoto. This is Baoer, the son of the head of a village. Today I brought him here to appeal for justice."
Baoer looked at the prefect in front of him and told him his story. The people outside were furious when they heard it. It seemed that everyone knew about Li Ruming's affair.
It is true. Li Ruming has a very bad reputation, otherwise, he would not have not married at his old age, because there is no family worthy of his status.
They were unwilling to marry their daughters to him. Now that they heard that he had done such a thing, they all started shouting and demanded that Li Ruming be severely punished.
But they didn't know that Li Ruming was already dead. The prefect certainly didn't know about this and just glanced at Baoer and Bai Jia.
"Someone, go and ask Li Ruming to come to the court."
The owner of the Li family was very angry these two days. His son had been dead for almost three months, but the family had not held a funeral because of financial difficulties.
Now the prefect is simply looking for death. Some people are so bold as to sue the people who have left their home. In a fit of rage, the head of the Li family actually brought people to the prefect's office in person.
As soon as he entered, he saw Bai Jia and his eyes widened immediately: "Bai Jia, it's you, give me back my son's life."
Bai Jia dodged it immediately, looked at Patriarch Li, and sneered, "Patriarch Li, are you going to kill someone in front of the adults?"
"Your son has done so many evil things. Even if he is dead, he deserves it. And you are not good people for leaving home!"
"During this period, something happened to your Li family and the Li family, right? The crazy money-making these days has made the people of the entire Ice City suffer."
"They even said it was the government's idea, and let the emperor take the blame. How audacious!"
Bai Jia glanced at the prefect as he spoke: "I wonder what the prefect has done in the past few months? Has he sent out officials to help collect taxes?"
“Where does your tax money go?”
Looking at Bai Jia, the prefect frowned: "You are just a young lady who is out for fun, it is better not to ask too much about these things!"
At this time, Baoer had already stepped aside, because there was nothing for Baoer to do now, and only Li Ruming's affairs were made public.
Moreover, the head of the Li family has also appeared in the picture, so Baoer has retired successfully. What happens next depends on Bai Ziyan.
Bai Jia laughed when he heard what the prefect said: "So the prefect is saying that you were indeed involved in this matter, and now you are threatening this imperial envoy to stop interfering in this matter, right?"
When the prefect heard what Bai Jia said, he burst into laughter: "Miss Bai, you really make me speechless. How dare you pretend to be an imperial envoy?"
"The instructions we received did not say that there were any women among the imperial envoys."
Bai Jia said, "Really? You blame me for your ignorance?"
The prefect laughed at Bai Jia's expression and said, "Women are so naive. Now that they know that I have joined the Li family."
"I am just a person. Now that I have revealed my identity, do you really think you can do anything to me?"
Bai Jia was silent for a moment. The prefect thought he had hit the mark and became even more proud: "I was looking for you everywhere!"
"I didn't expect that you would be so stupid as to stand up on your own, especially under such circumstances? How come you think you are a savior just because you see something unfair?"
"Come here, arrest these two people for me. They dared to pretend to be sent by the court and framed Master Li. Their crime is unforgivable."
"Kill him immediately! Take him away and execute him instantly!"
Bai Jia immediately smiled and looked at the prefect. The prefect felt a little uneasy when he saw Bai Jia's smile, but he couldn't remember what it was for a moment.
"I really don't know what to say to you, sir. Have you become so ambitious? Is it your right to sentence someone to death?"
"Do you really think you can arrest this imperial envoy just because you want to? Brother Bai, how long are you going to watch the show? Don't you see that they have already taken action?"
This time, Brother Bai shocked the prefect: "You have an accomplice?"
Bai Ziyan came out at this time, smiled at the prefect, and took out a gold medal: "Look at what this is? Impersonating an imperial envoy?"
"I think the prefect's heart is really getting bigger and bigger. Come on, arrest all the people in the prefect's office! Also arrest the people in Li's house and those who left home."
When the head of the Li family saw this scene, he was shocked. You know, he came here in a rage and didn't bring many people with him. Now he couldn't escape even if he wanted to.
They were soon caught. Looking at these people, Bai Ziyan laughed: "So? Are you still catching people so proudly now?"
"You families are so bold that you dare to collude with the government to oppress the people. I will arrest you all now. Don't tell me that you have no evidence."
"I have been very busy these past few months. I have collected all the evidence."
Bai Ziyan turned around and looked at the people outside: "Everyone, I will count the money you have embezzled during this period and confiscate the property of the Li family and the Li family."
"Then we will return them to their respective families! As for the Li family and those who have left their homes, we will arrest them all and take them to Kyoto for the Emperor to deal with!"
This can be regarded as a kind of killing a chicken to scare the monkey! And Bai Ziyan thought that what he was doing now could be regarded as meritorious service! Thinking of this, he felt relieved.
At the Li family, Li Zichun kept yelling, "Let me out now! I want to find Bai Zhen!"
By this time, the head of the Li family had already received the news and knew that the mansion had been surrounded. However, they had not found out when these government troops entered the city.
Thinking that the Li family might be in trouble this time, the head of the Li family was not worried, because in Kyoto, the Li family still had a way out! But the head of the Li family was very worried.
Leaving home was also involved, and the previous plan was completely useless. The more I thought about it, the more incredible it seemed! After thinking for a while.
The head of the Li family still made a decision, which was to send Li Zichun away first, because things in Kyoto were full of variables and no one could predict what would happen now.
Li's family is also involved, so the Li family's incense should be kept! The head of the Li family came to the place where Li Zichun was imprisoned and looked at Li Zichun.
Li Zichun saw his father coming and shouted, "Dad, please let me out! I want to find Bai Zhen!"
Patriarch Li looked at Li Zichun and sighed, "Bai Jia is an imperial envoy sent by the emperor, as is Bai Ziyan, and Bai Zhen should be one too."
"Now our Li family and the people who left the family are about to be sent to the guillotine by these three people. Are you sure you still want to go find Bai Zhen?"
Li Zichun was stunned and looked at his father: "What nonsense are you talking about? Zhenzhen is so stupid, how could she possibly be an imperial envoy? Don't talk nonsense."
Patriarch Li was stunned for a moment, looking at Li Zichun who looked incredulous, and sighed: "Chun'er, leave, hide your identity and live a new life."
"Remember, don't go look for Bai Zhen. If you go look for Bai Zhen again, your father and mother will die with regrets. She is the murderer who killed your people."
Li Zichun was very puzzled and looked at the head of the Li family: "Dad, you are lying!"
Seeing that Li Zichun was still a little bit unbelieving at this time, he sighed and said, "Dad can only send you away. You are not young anymore."
"Remember, you will be the hope of the Li family from now on. Go!"
He knocked Li Zichun unconscious, then looked at the shadow that appeared beside him and said, "You and my Li family originally had a deal. Now you just need to take my son out of the Li family."
"Even if the deal is done, you don't owe my Li family anything."
The black shadow didn't say anything, he just carried Li Zichun away. When Li Zichun was leaving, a group of people rushed into the Li family.
They were all captured because they already knew they were going to be sent to Kyoto, and the Li family also planned to go to Kyoto, so they just regarded it as being escorted for free.
All the members of the Li family and those who had left their homes were captured, locked up in a prison van, and sent to Kyoto together. Bai Ziyan and the other two were all going to leave.
Bai Zhen searched among the Li family members, only to find that Li Zichun was nowhere to be found. She couldn't describe the feeling in her heart, but she seemed to be relieved.
Mrs. Li also glanced at Bai Zhen: "Miss Bai, who are you looking for?"
Bai Zhen curled her lips and said, "I'm looking for Li Zichun. Your Li family is really capable. Since you can let him escape, that's good. It saves me from being embarrassed."
Mrs. Li was stunned for a moment: "Aren't you going to send someone to look for him?"
Bai Zhen just smiled and said, "So many Li family members are enough."
After saying this, Bai Zhen left. However, this sentence stunned both the head of the Li family and Madam Li. What message did this sentence convey
Weren't the Li family members arrested for oppressing the people? What do you mean by "so many Li family members are enough"? What exactly does the emperor want to do
Could it be that they already knew about Li Ziqing's actions and planned to use them to threaten Li Ziqing? Thinking of this, the head of the Li family couldn't help but change his expression.
Bai Jia looked at Bai Zhen and said, "You have repaid Li Zichun's kindness to you. If something like this happens again, you know the consequences."
"I can't protect you either!"
Bai Zhen blinked her eyes and said, "Oh, don't worry, sister. I understand. Are you going to take this little baby to Kyoto too?"
