It turned out that what her mother brought was not a document of severance of engagement, but a document of divorce!

This divorce document is much more useful than a severance document, and it can completely sever their relationship with the Li family!

Jiang Xiaoxiao looked at Jiang Wei, then at the man kneeling beside her with a disfigured face, and suddenly understood why her mother had disappeared for a whole night...

At this moment, County Magistrate Lu's face turned pale and he clenched his teeth.

Mr. Sun standing next to him glared at the two elders from the Li family viciously, as if he wanted to skin them alive.

He never expected that not only would the people hired by Zheng betray him in court, but they would even hide the divorce agreement from the Li family!
At this moment, the two elders of the Li family were trembling and lowering their heads, not daring to say a word.

In fact, they don't remember when the divorce agreement was signed...

But the fingerprints on it were indeed made by them.

Magistrate Du, who was standing by, saw the old couple sweating profusely but with a puzzled look on their faces, and sneered, "Why, you can't remember? I was there when you pressed your fingerprints on the divorce agreement, and I saw it with my own eyes."

Hearing this, the two elders of the Li family remembered the day when they went to the Jiang family to catch the adulterer before being driven out of Yuhe Village...

Could it be that day when they were knocked unconscious...

"It seems that you remembered it." Jiang Wei sneered at them, then took out a document from his arms and said in a sonorous voice: "I want to sue the two elders of the Li family for conspiring with the Sun family to frame me, maliciously fabricating facts, and secretly sending people to steal the soap formula of my Jiang family... This is my complaint."

As Jiang Wei made his accusations, the people outside the court finally understood that the Sun family had deliberately colluded with the two elders of the Li family to frame and falsely accuse the Jiang family, who had already severed their ties and divorced, in order to obtain the soap formula.

"You, you are talking nonsense!"

Mr. Sun was so angry that his face turned red. He shouted as if he was trying to cover up something: "Jiang, you are spreading rumors to confuse the public. You must have evidence for what you say, otherwise I will sue you for slander and defamation!"

"Evidence?" Jiang Wei gave him a cold look, "You want evidence, I have plenty."

After saying this, she raised her hand and Aunt Wu walked into the court.

She walked to Jiang Wei, knelt on the ground, and cried, "Lord Sun, I'm sorry, I didn't steal the Jiang family's marriage severance document as your wife ordered. This is a reward from your wife, I will return it all to you..."

As she spoke, she took out from her bosom the two silver notes with a face value of one hundred taels that Zheng had given her.

Everyone leaned over to look, and saw the logo of Sun Family Bank on the silver note.

In order to prevent Aunt Wu from taking the money and running away, and to prevent her from not providing evidence of the crime, Zheng deliberately gave her silver notes that could only be exchanged for money at the Sun family's money shop.

Unexpectedly, he ended up shooting himself in the foot.

Magistrate Du glanced at the banknote in Aunt Wu's hand and snorted coldly, "Mr. Sun, this banknote can't be fake. Your family used money to bribe the people of Yuhe Village to frame the Jiang family. It's all true. Why don't you admit your guilt?"

"me……"

Now even Mr. Sun was speechless and could only look at County Magistrate Lu who was standing beside him for help.

The veins on Magistrate Lu’s forehead were throbbing.

With all the evidence before him, he couldn't find any words to object.

"This case is very confusing, and some facts have not yet been clarified..." He lowered his voice, his eyes rolling, "How about this, first put the Jiang family and the Li family in jail, and I will find out the truth of everything and then interrogate them..."

"Lu Kun, what do you mean!" Magistrate Du stood up angrily, "The truth of the matter is clearly in front of us, why do you want to postpone the trial? Are you trying to bend the law for personal gain?!" "This is Qingping County, everything is up to me." Magistrate Lu said, "Sir Du, I have my own decision on the cases of the Jiang and Li families, it is not your turn to command!"

"You——" Magistrate Du was so angry that his fingers were shaking.

He had never seen such a shameless person!
Jiang Xiaoxiao frowned at this moment.

Obviously, Magistrate Lu's shamelessness was beyond her expectations.

How can such a person who is partial and unjust be a parent official of the people?
"Come here, take them to jail!" Magistrate Lu completely ignored Magistrate Du's obstruction and gave an order, ordering the surrounding yamen runners to come forward.

However, at this moment, there was a sudden noise outside the court, and countless officers and soldiers emerged like a tide, instantly surrounding the entire court.

Magistrate Lu was stunned for a moment, and immediately asked Magistrate Du next to him: "Is this the person you sent?!"

County Magistrate Du was confused: "These are not my people..."

Moreover, these officers and soldiers were all wearing armor, holding red-tasseled spears, and had solemn expressions. They were not at all the elite troops that a mere county magistrate like him could have.

At this time, County Magistrate Lu seemed to have noticed the armor on these soldiers. He was shocked for a moment, and hurriedly went down to the court and greeted them, saying, "May I ask who you are..."

A man wearing the uniform of the Imperial Guards and carrying a sword slowly walked out from among dozens of officers and soldiers. His face was solemn and indifferent, and his voice was extremely oppressive: "I am the right commander of the Imperial Guards. I came to Qingping County on the orders of the President to assist the daughter of Prince Duan in handling the case!"

County Magistrate Lu was stunned by the prestigious official titles that popped up one after another.

Commander in Chief of the Imperial Guards, isn't this a special army within the palace that specifically protects the safety of the imperial city? Why would they come to his small Qingping County?
Also, that Prince Duan... is he the younger brother of the current emperor as he knows him...

County Magistrate Lu swallowed his saliva and trembled as he spoke: "May I ask who is the daughter of Prince Duan..."

He looked around and saw the imposing right commander of the Imperial Guards stride forward and come straight to Jiang Xiaoxiao. He bent down and said respectfully, "Miss Jiang, Princess Duan asked me to say hello on your behalf."

Jiang Xiaoxiao: "...Sister Wanwan?"

The right commander nodded and said, "After you left, Princess Duan became ill from missing you. Prince Duan has informed His Majesty that he has decided to adopt you as his goddaughter. Now you are Prince Duan's daughter."

Jiang Xiaoxiao: “……?”

The air was stagnant for a moment.

Everyone present was in disbelief. This little girl was actually the daughter of Prince Duan? !

Oh my God, why does she have so many backers?
At first, the magistrate of Yong'an County personally stepped forward to protect him, then the right commander of the Imperial Guards stepped forward, and finally the Prince of Duan...

"She, she is just a little girl, how could she be the daughter of Prince Duan!?" Old Master Li next to him made a horrified sound.

His unbelievable face seemed extremely distorted and hideous, and his hoarse and unpleasant voice was particularly conspicuous in this quiet atmosphere.

The right commander frowned and looked at Mr. Li with an extremely oppressive gaze: "Are you questioning this commander?"

The sword-wielding guard beside him even shouted coldly: "How dare you! How dare a commoner like you address the daughter of Prince Duan like that? How many heads do you have?"

After saying this, he looked around with a cold and stern gaze and said, "Miss Jiang has an identity token bestowed by Prince Duan himself. Who among you dares to question her identity?" (End of this chapter)
