The prefect lady was no longer arrogant, her eyes were filled with tears of fear, just like someone who had been captured.

"I am the prefect's eldest lady!"

"I know, but no lady like the prefect should treat people like they are not human beings."

Three of Miss Han's four men came back, and one of them went to settle the rescued people.

Seeing this scene, he first confirmed that Song Tingran was fine, and then started to rescue people.

"Mother!"

Song Leyu, Song Changyue, Song Can, and Song Lingjia all threw themselves into Song Tingran's arms. Chang Yuqiao's arm was slightly injured, but it was not a problem.

"Miss Song, it's better to leave quickly."

"Okay, tie this prefect eldest lady to a wooden stake."

The prefect wanted to run, but her arms kept bleeding and she had no strength left.

Before the servants of the Han family could take action, those who were innocently kidnapped had already taken action.

He directly clasped it on Miss Magistrate's injured arm with a very rough movement. The rope was tightly tied around her body, making it impossible for her to move at all.

"I am the prefect's lady. If my mother finds out, she will definitely kill you!"

Song Lingjia kicked her in the stomach. Feeling that it was enough to relieve her anger, Song Lingjia kicked her again.

The other people who were captured came over one after another and returned the torture they had suffered.

At first, the prefect's voice could still be heard, then she was begging for mercy, and then there was no sound, and it was hard to tell whether she was dead or not.

Xiao Yuchen carried Gu Yan on his back the whole time, and everyone climbed up the ladder from the wall and escaped.

The sun had risen, and the servants of the prefect's family got up to work and discovered this scene.

On the street, the prefect sent someone to stop Song Tingran and his party.

"Okay, you bandits, you dare to attack the prefect's house at night while I am investigating the case at night, let me capture it."

Obviously, the prefect wanted to have a good reputation, so he stayed out all night pretending to be working hard. Now that he knew what happened at home, he was so angry that he wanted to kill Song Tingran's family on the spot.

"Who dares!" Song Tingran held up the blessing token, and the officials were in a dilemma.

"A token is nothing. The emperor is guilty of the same crime as the common people when he breaks the law. What's more, they are bandits. This is the evidence in the prefect's house. Take it!"

Song Tingran stood at the front, protecting his family members at the back.

Gu Yan raised his head hard on Xiao Yuchen's back and said: "I am from Furong Town. I was kidnapped by the evil man like the prefect. He imprisoned us homeless people and claimed that they had been properly resettled. Just for her good name.”

The people on the street also started talking about it.

"The Wang Ermazi on our street was rescued by the prefect and has never been seen again."

"Look, isn't that the beggar on the street in front of your house? Why is he covered in wounds..."

The voices of discussion continued, but the magistrate continued to issue orders regardless of it, and said that anyone who talked nonsense again would be suspected of being an accomplice and taken away together.

The people are naturally afraid. They are all people with families and families, and they dare not mess with officials.

When other people who were rescued from the prefect's house saw this situation, they bravely stood up and denounced what the prefect had done.

The scene was very chaotic, even people who had been rescued for the first time came over.

With Song Tingran and his family in the middle, the officials were helpless and the situation began to get out of control.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way! Lord Zhang Xuanhua, the Minister of Rites, is here!"

Song Tingran looked over and saw that Zhang Xuanhua was the protective umbrella above the prefect.

The people knelt down one after another, but Song Tingran did not kneel down when he took the blessing token. Such a corrupt official was not worthy at all.

Zhang Xuanhua also glanced at Song Tingran and was a little surprised to see the blessing token, and then asked the prefect and everyone to get up.

"Master Magistrate, you are tired. You have caught a suspected bandit. Go back and have a good rest. The rest will be left to me."

"Yes, my lord."

The prefect got on his horse and prepared to leave, and Zhang Xuanhua's people also cleared a way.

Song Tingran knew very well that she couldn't leave. The investigation into the magistrate's house had not been completed. Who knew what else was inside? The evidence would be destroyed when she returned.

"Master Zhang, the prefect cannot leave. She is suspected of kidnapping homeless people, torturing and brutally killing them. There are witnesses. Please be careful."

Master Zhang looked at Song Tingran again and said: "There is not enough evidence for this matter. I will send someone to investigate carefully. However, it is up to you to think about the crimes you have committed and explain honestly."

"What? Are you trying to protect the prefect, Lord Shangshu? We have been framed as bandits and will be taken away without evidence. The prefect is able to leave despite having evidence of persecuting the people. What kind of logic is this!"

The rescued people were resisting with all their hearts. Zhang Shangshu picked his ears and didn't pay attention at all.

"Take them all back and investigate them carefully."

You must not follow him. This Zhang Xuanhua is more terrifying than the prefect. He goes in and comes out without his life.

"You two, take the children and find an opportunity to leave."

Song Tingran was ready to resist, and the others left first, but Xiao Yuchen, Chang Yuqiao and the children disagreed, saying that no matter what happened, the family would stay together and never separate.

Miss Han came over with her servants and stood by Song Tingran's side.

"Are you going to rebel? You are openly confronting the court officials!"

Zhang Xuanhua was obviously angry. This was the first time he had encountered such a thing in so many years as an official.

The prefect added more and more jealously and said, "Sir, just take all these people back and put them in jail. There is no one who is dishonest."

"Well, take them all back."

The civilians and soldiers pushed each other at this moment. Song Tingran took advantage of the chaos and shot Zhang Xuanhua's horse in the leg.

The horse was frightened and ran wildly, and many officials gave chase.

Many roadside stalls were overturned.

A girl with good martial arts skills stopped the frightened horse, rescued Zhang Xuanhua, and then stood aside.

Zhang Shangshu raised his eyes, knelt down directly on the ground, and said respectfully: "See Mr. Jing Zhaoyin, why are you here? You didn't say anything in advance. I'm a low-ranking official. I'd better be ready if I'm a low-ranking official."

"I was just passing by and happened to meet this matter. Is it okay for Mr. Zhang?"

Zhang Shangshu wiped away the cold sweat and kept kneeling, thinking about the strategy.

Song Tingran looked at it from a distance, was that person Chen Xiangyin? Did she invite Jing Zhaoyin?

Lord Jing Zhaoyin understood the situation and brought everyone back to the Shangshu Mansion. She sat high up, with Zhang Xuanhua and the prefect standing beside her.

"Song Tingran, if you want to sue the official, you should be punished by the 20 people first, but you have the Blessing Token, so this can be offset."

"Thank you, Lord Jing Zhaoyin."
