Chapter 98 The Woman Tied to Chains

Liu Yanyan had a simple breakfast in the carriage. When she arrived at the yamen, it was already open, but the fog at the door had not yet dissipated, making it look a little eerie.

Liu Yanyan raised her eyebrows, wondering if she had come too early! Why was there no one outside? She took Liu Wu to the yamen and saw a yamen runner standing at the side of the door, yawning, looking very sleepy.

When Liu Yanyan walked by, the yamen runner perked up and said, "Master Liu, you're here really early. It usually takes another half an hour for Zhang to arrive. You can come later tomorrow."

Liu Yanyan nodded and smiled and said, "Okay, thank you for your reminder. I will arrive later tomorrow." After that, she walked towards the yamen. It was too early, and the yamen was shrouded in heavy fog and looked eerie.

Liu Yanyan took a look at her red official uniform, plucked up the courage to walk to the courtyard on the right, pushed open the mahogany door with branches, walked straight to the backyard, calmed down again, and carefully read the files.

Liu Wu stood guard at the door, holding a knife, and stared quietly at the locust tree in the yard.

Until noon

Master Zhang walked to the backyard and said to Liu Wu, "Meals will be served in the yard on the right. You and your servant should go there early. If you are late, there will be no food." After that, he walked through the archway on the right and went straight out.

After Liu Wu bowed, he turned around and was about to knock on the door, but Liu Yanyan opened the door and said, "Let's go, we'll have dinner."

Liu Wu nodded and followed behind.

Liu Yanyan saw that there were many people in the dining courtyard, and a trace of impatience flashed across her eyes. She found an empty table and sat on a stool next to it. She said to Liu Wu, "Liu Wu, go get some food and eat here."

Liu Wu looked around to see if there was any danger before walking in and standing at the end of the line.

Liu Yanyan sat on the stool awkwardly, looking at the people busy around her, feeling a little uncomfortable. When Liu Wu came back with the meal, Liu Yanyan looked at the rice and a few meat dishes in the big bowl, closed her eyes, struggled for a while to pick up the chopsticks at hand, and said to Liu Wu, "Sit down and eat next to you, don't starve."

Only then did Liu Wu sit at the table next to him to eat.

Liu Yanyan withdrew her gaze and looked at the food in the big bowl. She prepared herself mentally before she started to eat. The food was a bit greasy, but not particularly bad. She couldn't eat anymore after eating half of it. Liu Wu consciously helped the young lady to take away the dishes and chopsticks.

Liu Yanyan looked at the people around her and relaxed when she saw that no one noticed her. After Liu Wu put away the dishes and chopsticks, she walked towards the yard next to her. She didn't meet many people along the way. It seemed that people only gathered together when they were having meals.

Zhang, who was walking behind, smiled. "Master Liu, the food here is delicious, isn't it? This is the best food in this area."

When Liu Yanyan heard this, she stopped and said with a smile, "It's delicious. I'll have a treat in the future. Where is Lord Zhang going now? I'll go with him to broaden my horizons."

Manager Zhang smiled and said, "You take a look at the files and the law code first. I'll bring people to pay a return visit and see how they are doing now. You don't have to follow them, so as not to scare you." Your father is here to cause trouble for me.

When Liu Yanyan heard this, her eyes lit up. If there was no case, it would be fine to go and see how they were doing now! But if there was no divorce, how could they live well? "Master Zhang, I will also go with you to broaden my horizons. With Liu Wu and Liu Liu protecting me, nothing will happen."

Only then did Zhang Zhushi say reluctantly, "Okay, don't be afraid, they dare not disrespect you." Anyone who dared to disrespect officials would have gone to hell long ago.

Liu Yanyan nodded happily. Finally, she didn't have to stay in the yamen all the time to read the files.

Director Zhang led the yamen runners out of the yamen and got on the carriage in front. Liu Yanyan's carriage followed behind, going further and further away until they arrived at the manor of a wealthy merchant in the western suburbs of Beijing.

As soon as Manager Zhang's carriage arrived at the gate, the servant at the door hurriedly opened the door, bowed respectfully, and led the person into the courtyard.

Liu Yanyan, Liu Wu and Liu Liu followed behind Zhang Zhushi. When they saw the exquisite courtyard, they couldn't help but nod their heads. This family seemed to be very tasteful. The garden, rockery and lake had everything. It was indeed elegant.

When they arrived at the main courtyard, Director Zhang sat in the main seat in the main hall, and Liu Yanyan naturally sat in the seat below him.

Wang Yaozu, a wealthy man, came running over, wiped the sweat off his forehead with a handkerchief, and bowed respectfully, "Greetings to the two adults. May I ask what brings me here this time?"

Zhang said calmly, "As usual, I came to your house to find out about your wife's situation. Please ask her to come out!"

Wang Yaozu clenched his fists nervously and pretended to be calm and said, "My dear, it's great. I'm playing with the kids in the backyard now. How about I bring my dear to see you later?"

A cold light flashed across Master Zhang's eyes, and he said to Wang Yaozu, "It's okay. Lord Liu and I will just go to the backyard to take a look." After that, he walked straight to the backyard. Liu Yanyan also followed him to the backyard with a gloomy face.

Wang Yaozu followed behind and tried to stop them, but was stopped by the yamen runners.

Along the way, they met several beautiful concubines, but they did not meet his wife, Wang Li. Finally, the group saw Wang Li lying in the woodshed in the backyard, with an iron chain around her neck, dying.

When Liu Yanyan saw Wang Li's miserable appearance, her face turned pale with anger. She stepped forward to help her up, walked to the side, and came to a servant's room.

Zhang arranged for the yamen runners to call in a doctor, then looked at Wang Yaozu fiercely and said, "This is what you promised solemnly in court. You will sincerely repent and live a good life with her! This is your promise!"

Wang Yaozu stammered, "How could a woman sue her own husband? She made me lose face, I must teach her a lesson! I didn't kill her, I just beat her a few times! I was still very good to her." I heard that several people secretly poisoned their wives, I don't know if it's true.

Liu Yanyan looked at the weak Wang Li in her arms, turned her head and looked at Wang Yaozu angrily and said, "You are really so kind! You don't care about your wife's life or death, you are really shameless!"

Zhang, the supervisor, watched Liu Yanyan get angry, and had no intention of stopping her. He looked at Wang Yaozu with a bad face, "Is it true that if we hadn't come, your wife would have been beaten to death by you! Your wife is not a slave you bought, so why bother? You can beat her up if you want, and kill her if you want! There is no law anymore!"

Wang Yaozu turned pale with fear, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. He glanced at his wife on the bed and knelt down with a plop. "Wife, please wake up soon! Your husband really likes you too much and doesn't want to hurt you at all! I just can't accept that you want a divorce, and I just want to teach you a lesson. Wife, please wake up soon!"
