Baili Jia Jue only took a glance at Magistrate Liao before he s.h.i.+fted his gaze away. He then walked in front of Helian Wei Wei like a real advisor and said slowly, “Lord Wei, I hereby request to summon the witness that the yamen found into the hall.”

Helian Wei Wei looked at the wicked smile on the man’s face and she too curled her soft lips up, “Permission granted.”

Baili Jia Jue turned around and his slender legs stood straight with eyes as dark as the night. The pressuring coldness swept over everything, “Men, bring in the two stewards from Yan Manor.”

As his voice subsided, four figures appeared together outside the yamen and every one of them was in black clothing. Their physique was so similar and with a push, the two stewards fell forward!

Yan Dazhao’s expression went pale instantly!

“Why are you fellows here? Hurry up and get the h.e.l.l back to the manor!”

The two stewards’ faces were swollen and bruised beyond recognition, their lips were quivering in pain and there were tears in their eyes. They too wanted to go back.

But the men behind them were scarier than a demon!

After the two stewards were exposed to bribing the witnesses, not only were they beaten up, their families too were under tight surveillance. If the two of them refused to appear on trial, the men would go after their families!

Even if they really wanted to go back, they were afraid to do it!

As Yan Dazhao saw the two stewards were frozen on the spot, he quickly strode over and grabbed the arm of one of the two!

“Yan Dazhao!” Helian Wei Wei suddenly shouted and stopped his actions, her voice was clear and powerful, “What are you trying to do to the witnesses? Don’t forget that you are standing on yamen grounds. Even if someone is supporting you, you should not cross the line.”

She was looking at Magistrate Liao when she said those words.

Embarra.s.sed by her stare, Magistrate Liao’s face turned sour in front of the public. He had no choice but to shout at Yan Dazhao, “Where are your manners? Come back!”

“But…” Lord Yan still tried to defend himself.

Magistrate Liao’s look deepened. He glared at the man fiercely before turning to Helian Wei Wei and said, “Lord Wei, do I need to remind you again? Due to the profound relations.h.i.+p between you and Liu Yin, you are not suitable to continue the trial or judge this case, please hand over the things that you’ve investigated and let the other lords from the provincial capital to make the decision.”

“The profound relations.h.i.+p between Liu Yin and I? What relations.h.i.+p is that?” Helian Wei Wei’s glare was cold and she casually continued, “Besides, Magistrate Liao, didn’t you see the witnesses who are kneeling there? You did not ask what they know yet you kept protecting Yan Dazhao with your authority and trying to stop me from continuing the trial. I think it is very obvious now who is the one with a selfish intention here!”

After hearing Helian Wei Wei’s words, someone from the civilians added loudly, “Lord Wei is right! Lord Liao is the one with selfish intentions!”

“That’s right! It’s so obvious that he is protecting Yan Dazhao! Are they somehow relatives, Yan Dazhao and Magistrate Liao!?”

The power of united villagers should not be underestimated. After the first one voiced his opinion, the others followed in a single voice!

Maybe it was because of what Helian Wei Wei had said earlier.
