"Prefect, please take a look."

After Li Wuzi finished speaking, he handed the IOU in his hand to the prefect.

The prefect pretended to look carefully, and then his eyes fell on the young woman again.

"You have also seen that I have already produced the IOU, what else do you have to say?"

"This IOU is fake!"

The young woman gritted her teeth and looked at the catcher with resentful eyes.

At this moment, she understood everything. What IOUs are, they are just excuses.

These people have obviously been targeting him for a long time, and all of this is just a trap set by the other party.

After thinking about this clearly, a look of despair flashed across the young woman's cheeks.

Because she suddenly realized that if the other party had premeditated it, she might be doomed this time.

Thinking of this, she subconsciously looked at Susu who was hiding behind her.

Although the child Su Su is not old, she is very sensible sometimes. Just like in the courtroom at this moment, this little girl was surprisingly quiet. She grabbed the young woman's skirt and said nothing. Her little face was still tense, and she looked a bit cute.

"You said this IOU is fake, do you have proof?"

The Lord Magistrate looked at the young woman and asked in a deep voice.

"I……"

The young woman opened her red lips, and for a moment, she didn't know what to do.

The IOU itself was fake, how could she prove it?

Unless...unless you compare your fingerprints.

Thinking of this, her eyes lit up slightly.

"If you don't believe it, Lord Magistrate, you can compare the fingerprints."

When the prefect heard this, he sneered and shook his head.

"This handprint is nothing more than a certificate. What can be compared with it?"

"It's you, do you want to default on the debt? Although I, seeing you as an orphan and a widowed mother, feel pity for you, but there are laws in Da Zhou, and we must act in accordance with the laws."

Hearing this, the young woman's heart felt cold.

She smiled bitterly and suddenly asked:

"In this case, I wonder if, Lord Magistrate, you can grant me some time. As a woman, it is not easy for me to come up with so much money at once."

"More time?"

The prefect frowned and glanced at Li Wuzi.

Li Wuzi immediately understood and asked:

"You little lady, don't think that I don't know what your plans are. With your current net worth, how can you have hundreds of taels of silver?"

"I would like to advise you, please be obedient and meet that adult with me. Maybe that adult will be in a better mood and it may be possible to forgive your debt."

When the young woman heard this, a look of despair flashed in her eyes.

At this moment, Yang Dong, who had been watching for a long time, slowly said:

"What you are doing is probably not in compliance with Zhou's laws, right?"

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of both the prefect and Li Wuzi changed.

The Lord Magistrate snorted coldly, glanced at Yang Dong and asked:

"What does this have to do with you?"

"Who are you and why do you appear in court?"

Li Wuzi was on the side and immediately opened his mouth to explain to the prefect:

"Master Magistrate, this person is the one who commits murder in public! He is the concubine of that young lady. He deliberately stepped forward and injured many debt collectors."

"Okay, I didn't notice it. It turns out that you are the most vicious person!"

"Come here, take down the criminals!"

Before he finished speaking, Li Wuzi led several detectives and walked up to Yang Dong.

However, before they could speak, Yang Dong casually took out a Xichang secret agent's token from his arms and threw it in front of their faces.

"Look carefully. If you want to accuse me, I'm afraid you are not qualified."

Li Wuzi looked confused and took the token and only glanced at it. The next moment, he stood frozen on the spot.

When the Lord Magistrate saw this, a flash of astonishment also flashed in his eyes.

He picked up the token and looked at it carefully for a moment, then his face was filled with horror.

"Get out of the way! Who asked you to bring this adult here?"

The Lord Magistrate glared at Li Wuzi fiercely, but after all, the other party was his confidant, and he was not willing to give up easily.

So he smiled at Yang Dong and said:

"My lord, we have flooded the Dragon King Temple. This is all a misunderstanding. You see..."

"Misunderstand?"

Yang Dong sneered, but his face suddenly sank.

"In the courtroom, right and wrong are confused. How can these things be explained clearly by a simple misunderstanding?"

"If you don't tell me the cause and effect today, I will definitely not let you go easily."

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the magistrate and Li Wuzi changed.

The Lord Magistrate pondered for a moment, but Li Wuzi beside him could no longer sit still.

He glared at Yang Dong fiercely and said coldly:

"Boy, let me tell you, don't think that because you have Xichang behind you, you can act arrogantly in front of me."

"Do you believe it or not, I can make you walk around without food with just one word?"

"Then you should tell me!"

Yang Dong glanced at Li Wuzi disdainfully, and then his eyes rested on the prefect.

"Why, as the magistrate of the capital, do you need to be at the mercy of a policeman now?"

When the magistrate heard this, a look of hesitation appeared on his cheeks.

On one side is the adult, and on the other side is the Xichang secret agent in front of him.

Both sides are not easy to mess with, especially the Xichang spies. I heard that Mr. Yang behind them is deeply favored by His Majesty.

Thinking of this, the magistrate said in a deep voice:

"Little brother, listen to my advice. The water in this matter is very deep. Even if you have the support of Xichang, you'd better not go too far."

"If you believe me, this matter will be revealed. If you like this little lady, you can take it away by yourself. However, I don't have to say anything about this money, and I have nothing to do with it."

When Yang Dong heard this, he took a deep look at the prefect.

He didn't expect that there was a big fish hidden behind this seemingly ordinary incident.

But that's fine. If we catch this big fish early, it will be easier to run the capital.

Yang Dong pondered for a moment and was about to speak when he saw the young woman suddenly walking in front of him.

"This young master has been very helpful, and I am extremely grateful."

"It's just that after all, this is the slave family's own business. Frequently troublesome young master, the slave family is deeply uneasy."

As she spoke, she took out a piece of nephrite from her sleeve and placed it in front of the prefect.

"Master Magistrate, may I ask if you recognize this jade?"

"How do I recognize this officer?"

As the magistrate spoke, he planned to push Nephrite away. But the next second, an unnatural expression flashed across his face.

"Where did your piece of nephrite come from?"

"It's just a gift from an old friend. I dare to ask, sir, how should I handle this matter?"

The magistrate pondered for a moment and said:

"Just leave this matter to me."
