General, the lady escaped again

"Ji Changqing, do you admit your guilt?" The magistrate turned around and looked at Ji Changqing with a gloomy face. He slammed the wooden stick and the yamen runners also had gloomy faces.

"I...I...I...I am her biological father, that's for sure! She should raise me..." Father Ji replied while shaking.

"Bold Ji Changqing, you actually dare to quibble. You have already written the severance letter, don't you know that once it is signed, you two will no longer have any relationship, she will no longer live in your Ji family, and you will have nothing to do with each other whether you live or die? And you still dare to accuse her of being unfilial in front of me? She is an unrelated person, how can she be unfilial! You are just making fun of me!" The magistrate saw that Ji Changqing still did not know his mistake, and immediately said angrily.

"Sir, I... I won't sue... I won't sue." Ji Changqing said tremblingly. It was too late to withdraw now.

"Do you think this government office is your home? You can come and go as you please? Come here, take him away, beat him with thirty sticks and then put him in jail." The magistrate said angrily. Two yamen runners immediately stepped forward and took Ji's father away. Soon, they heard Ji's father's screams.

"Mrs. Ji, you are innocent and can leave." The magistrate said to Mrs. Ji.

"As for you, the crime is not yours, and you can leave." The magistrate did not hold the stepmother guilty, but let her go.

"Your Excellency is very observant. I thank you very much." After bowing to the magistrate, Ji Xiaou turned and left. Li Hao, who had been waiting at the gate of the yamen, immediately rushed up and looked at Ji Xiaou worriedly.

"Brother, I'm fine. The one who is in trouble is Ji Changqing." Ji Xiaomu said with a smile.

"That's good, that's good. I was scared to death. Fang Chen didn't lie to me." Li Hao breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fang Chen?" Hearing this familiar yet unfamiliar name, Ji Xiaomu was stunned. What does it have to do with him?

"Hey, didn't you see Fang Chen? I met him on the way and told him about you, and then he said that you would be fine and asked me to wait at the door." Li Hao replied, "Otherwise I would have rushed in and told the adults that you were not guilty."

Ji Xiaomu didn't expect that Fang Chen was actually involved in this, but when she thought about the magistrate's attitude towards her, it seemed a bit special and he always gave her the opportunity to speak.

Fortunately, Fang Chen stopped Li Hao from rushing into the government office, otherwise he would have to go in as well. "Brother, don't rush in directly next time. That's disrespectful to the government office. Even if you're innocent, you'll be beaten with a stick and locked up for a few days."

"...Really? Fortunately I didn't rush in." When Li Hao heard that he was going to be beaten with a stick, he was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, nothing happened.

Otherwise, his wife wouldn't be able to see him.

No wonder Ji Changqing screamed so miserably just now, it turned out to be because he was beaten with a stick.

"Woo..." Suddenly, a crying sound was heard behind them. Ji Xiao'er and Li Hao turned around and saw their stepmother Zhu Juan crying and shaking. She must have been frightened just now, thinking that she would be beaten with a stick too. She didn't dare to make a sound for a while. Only after leaving the yamen did she dare to cry.

"Let's go." Ji Xiaomu turned her head and didn't look at her again. She had brought this upon herself and she should suffer the consequences.

"Okay, let's go home quickly! Dad and Mom must be worried sick." Li Hao said, Ji Xiaou nodded, and the two of them hurried home.

After the two left, Fang Chen came out from the dark alley and looked at Ji Xiaomu's back, with an inexplicable light flashing in his eyes...

I thought I had let it go, but I couldn't deceive my heart. When I heard about her situation, I couldn't help but rush over.
