I meet all the requirements for becoming a god in this world!

next day

Yong'an County Government Office.

Early in the morning, Cheng Laiyun and Qi Dazhuang got ready and set off on the official road in Yong'an County.

The Xu family's cloth shop was about half an hour's walk from the Yong'an County government office, but the two of them ate as they walked, and it took them more than an hour to complete the journey.

This was the first time Cheng Laiyun had seen people coming and going in the county since he had transmigrated, so he walked slowly.

The hawkers' cries could be heard early in the morning.

There were vendors selling soy milk, vendors selling morning vegetables, and children nestled under their parents' arms, still half asleep...

"Come and try this, my sister made it herself."

After being comforted by both Qi Xinxiang and Cheng Laiyun.

Qi Dazhuang was very confident about today's courtroom confrontation.

He had a stuffed steamed bun in his left hand and a yellow pastry in his right, his mouth stuffed full.

"I won't eat it."

Cheng Laiyun glanced at the pastry that Qi Dazhuang had already taken a big bite of, pushed it away, and looked ahead.

He had just come from that place a few days ago.

Yong'an County Government Office.

By this time, many people had gathered around the county government office.

As soon as the two entered the crowd, they heard a dense murmur of conversation.

"Old Qi's daughter has a flirtatious figure and doesn't look like an honest person."

"If you ask me, she's right. A few days ago, I wanted to ask a matchmaker to marry her off to my eldest son, but she refused outright. Ha, if it weren't for Wang Po revealing her sordid deeds, I would have really thought she was a good match."

"Exactly, that woman has a sharp tongue; now I know, it must have been trained by that lover!"

Shh, keep your voice down, someone's coming!

"..."

Cheng Lai stared expressionlessly at the people dressed in coarse cloth.

really.

There are always these fools in every era.

He can still tolerate it.

Qi Dazhuang, who was standing to the side, had red eyes from anger.

With a "thud," he smashed the steamed bun in his hand onto one of the men's heads.

"Dare you say another word?!"

He shouted it out, and his voice was so loud it made people's ears go numb.

At the same time, his aura pressed down on these people.

He had already reached a high level of cultivation, and coupled with his height being two heads taller than normal, his mere presence caused a chill to run through the surrounding area.

Those people were terrified by the shout and turned pale.

"My sister is innocent. If you dare to insult her again, my fists aren't for nothing!!"

Qi Dazhuang's honest eyes widened in surprise.

His voice, after the loud shout, was eerily hoarse.

As he spoke, he stomped on the ground, smashing the blue brick floor to pieces.

After witnessing this scene, those people dared not speak even more.

"Alright, Dazhuang, the court is now in session."

Cheng Laiyun coldly surveyed the group of ignorant people, not wanting to waste any more words on them.

Justice resides in the hearts of the people; after the court hearing, they will change their minds.

"Hmph!" Qi Dazhuang snorted coldly and headed towards Cheng Laiyun.

The two walked together toward the county government office.

Yong'an County is nestled against Qinglong Mountain.

There were also commercial giants like the Xu family's cloth shop, whose business spanned the entire Qingzhou region and developed rapidly.

It is already a well-known large county.

The size of the county government office is a testament to this.

After passing through the ceremonial gate, you enter the main hall.

However, cases are usually not adjudicated here.

The actual place for trial is to go through another door to reach the second hall.

The second trial was usually not conducted by the county magistrate himself.

The cases were handled by the chief clerk, county constable, and other high-ranking officials.

After all, the county magistrate is the supreme ruler of the county, and unless it is a major case, it can usually be solved by the county lieutenant or clerk.

The county magistrate had no interest in dealing with cases like Qi Xinxiang's, which involved annulment of an engagement.

They entered the second hall.

Looking around, Cheng Laiyun saw that a team of constables had already surrounded the main gate of the courthouse.

There was no one in the main seat, clearly indicating that Magistrate Wei Xianjun had no interest in this kind of case.

The person in charge of this case was an elderly man standing below the main seat.

The old man was dressed in brocade robes and had a shrewd look on his face.

This man was none other than Zhou, the third-in-command of Yong'an County.

He served as an official in Yong'an County for longer than the county magistrate.

The people naturally recognized him.

Cheng Laiyun's attention was not on him, but rather he squinted at the people kneeling on the ground.

The first one on the left is none other than Sister Xinxiang, whom I met just yesterday.

On the right is Wang Po, who tricked Sister Xinxiang out of her jewelry a few days ago.

Looking further to the right, there was a middle-aged man. From what the people around him were saying, Cheng Laiyun also had some impression of the middle-aged man.

He was a lawyer sent by the Tian family to handle the annulment of the engagement.

"Wang Guizhi, you claim that Qi Jiaxinxiang is lewd, dissolute, and has ruined her reputation, and that she is already four months pregnant. Is that true?"

The clerk, Zhou, was already showing signs of impatience. He glanced at Granny Wang and asked a question.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Laiyun already had a sense of the progress of the court proceedings.

She frowned and looked towards Granny Wang.

"Your Excellency, everything I said is true. The day before yesterday on Tongfu Street, I saw with my own eyes her leaning between two men, letting them grope her all over, and she even seemed to be enjoying it."

"Ugh, how disgusting! Even now, thinking about it still shocks me. In all my years, this is the first time I've ever witnessed such a morally reprehensible thing!"

As she spoke, Wang Po's words became harsh and stern, and she appeared to be a chaste and virtuous woman.

These words were spoken.

The onlookers erupted in a clamor.

Everyone looked towards Qi Xinxiang.

Discussions and debates continued unabated.

Cheng Laiyun was so angry upon hearing this that his knuckles turned white from clenching his fists. One can only imagine how angry the person involved must have been.

But he didn't lose his mind; he firmly pressed down on Qi Dazhuang, who was already on the verge of a violent outburst, with his left hand.

"Calm down," Cheng Laiyun said, taking a deep breath to suppress his anger.

At this moment, Qi Xinxiang's chest heaved with breath.

Her phoenix eyes, like two sharp blades, pierced straight through the old woman, her finger trembling as she pointed at her:

"Blood, you're spouting nonsense..."

Her lips turned pale with anger.

"quiet!!"

The scene was noisy, and Zhou, the registrar, shouted impatiently.

"Bang bang bang!!"

The constables' batons clattered against the ground, making a buzzing sound as the earthquake struck.

Suppress all the noise.

The courtroom fell silent once more.

Clerk Zhou stared at Granny Wang:

"Do you know that if anything you say today is even slightly false, your tongue will be cut out!"

Granny Wang trembled.

Hesitating for a moment, she opened her mouth, gritted her teeth, and banged her head on the ground.

"Your Honor, everything I have said today is the truth. If there is even the slightest falsehood, I am willing to accept punishment!"

"Fine!!" Clerk Zhou had long since lost his patience; he raised his hand and looked outside:

"Please have a midwife examine Qi Xinxiang!"

"We'll know everything once the test results are in!"

Soon, the midwife invited by the yamen shakily entered the courtroom.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, they walked towards a small hut at the back.

Qi Xinxiang followed the midwife into the house.

The entire courtroom fell silent once again.

Even some ordinary people couldn't help but crane their necks to look into the house.

They clearly wanted to know the result as soon as possible.

Cheng Laiyun couldn't resist and immediately activated his [Hearing All-Seeing] ability.

After he focused all his attention on that little house.

A slight rustling sound came from inside the room.

Before long, the midwife was heard murmuring:

"This young lady is still a virgin, how could she be four months pregnant?"

Then came Sister Xinxiang's aggrieved voice:

"My mother-in-law should make the decisions for me."

"Don't worry, I prayed to the gods before I left home."

……

Hearing these words, Cheng Laiyun finally felt relieved.

A cold smile played on his lips as he looked at Granny Wang kneeling on the ground.
