When Jiang Shi was brought down, he was stupefied.

The court didn't have a verdict on her crime. The trial today could only be considered as the preliminary hearing. It was impossible to be hasty about the verdict on a case involving her life.

He stood there without saying a word, as if he had suddenly aged ten years. He did not speak, did not support his wife who was crying until she could not breathe, and did not care about the various gazes around him. He just stood there silently.

Furthermore, the Jiang Clan was actually the daughter of the former Lord Su's daughter. Even if they didn't die at the age of a hundred, there would still be news about them.

The Sun family needed to be pacified, and the Li family needed to be pacified as well. Although he had the courage to go against Senior Officer Li, it was not a long term plan. Money was still more important than anything.

After everyone had dispersed, Liu Wei was the last one to leave.

When Liu Wei left, she held Xiaoli's left hand and Sun Ke's right hand as she brought the two children to eat.

He chose a bun house, and when he was done with the bun, Little Sun could use her red eyes to look at Xiaoli: "Big brother Xiaoli, where's my mother?"

Xiaoli did not answer, she only helped her lay out the chopsticks and bowls, and also used a handkerchief to wipe her nose before she said: "Eat first, we'll talk after you're done eating."

Sun Ke obediently asked, "After I finish eating, Big Bro will bring Ke'er to find Mother?"

Xiaoli said again: "Let's talk after eating."

Sun Ke thought that Xiaoli had agreed. She sat obediently and waited for the steamed buns to be served.

When the buns came, Xiaoli saw that Sun Bun could probably eat it himself, so she didn't help her. Instead, she went over to Mother's side and asked in a low voice, "Mother, what do we do next?"

Liu Wei broke open a bun made of soy sauce and handed it over to her son while stuffing half of it into her mouth. "What do we do about what?"

Xiaoli said: "Oh Sun Ke, just now when we were about to leave the hall, Madam Sun's servant girl came to me to ask for someone. I specifically took a look at Madam Sun's expression, as if she wanted to eat someone.

Liu Wei did not want Sun Ke to return to the Sun family either. She chewed on a bun and swallowed it, then said slowly: "Before the case is over, Sun Ke is considered one of the witnesses. After we finish eating, send her to County Official Song for arrangements."

Xiaoli's heart ached for County Official Song: "Will you not accept the County Magistrate Song?"

Liu Wei shook her head.

Xiaoli asked in doubt, "Mother, are you that sure?"

Liu Wei said: "He is a good official."

Since they could imagine Sun Ke's situation, then naturally, the Song County's County Magistrate, who was also very clear about Sun Ke's background, could also think of this as well. As a parent, it was impossible for the Song County Magistrate not to do work, so he would properly arrange for Sun Ke to be handed over to him.

Seeing that his mother was so serious, Xiaoli felt relieved. He turned around and reminded Sun Ke to eat more.

Sun Ke originally could not eat much, but seeing how passionate Xiaoli was, he stuffed another big bun into the bowl, and another half a bowl of soy milk.

When she was done eating, she felt her stomach bulging and could not help but yawn. If she ate too much, she would feel a little sleepy.

Liu Wei carried the child and let her lean against her shoulder as she said, "Go to sleep."

Little Sun didn't have the habit of sleeping after a meal. She was very shy and hung on Uncle Liu's body. She didn't close her eyes and just quietly played with Uncle Liu's buttons.

Liu Wei brought her to walk on the street for a while, but in the end, she was too young. After a while, she could no longer control herself and she fell asleep little by little.

Seeing that she had fallen asleep, Liu Wei turned the corner and brought her back to the yamen.

When he arrived at the yamen, there was no longer any County Magistrate Song to be seen.

In fact, after expending a great deal of effort to send Steward Sun and Grand Officer Li off, County Magistrate Song immediately got off work. However, before he got off work, he warned Grand Master not to be in a hurry to leave.

Therefore, when Liu Wei returned to the yamen, she only saw Master.

Liu Wei handed the sleeping grandson over to Grand Master, who carefully received the little girl and said: "Don't worry, Lady Liu. We will take good care of her."

Liu Wei nodded, pulled Xiaoli who was beside him and said: "Then we'll be leaving first. After being busy for two days and one night, everyone is tired."

The Grand Master nodded to her.

Liu Wei took two steps forward, but the Grand Master seemed to have thought of something and called out to her again: "Miss Liu."

Liu Wei turned around: "Is there anything else?"

The Grand Master gave an embarrassed smile and weakly reminded, "During the second trial and the final trial, do you want to come earlier?"

The smile on Liu Wei's face froze, and she explained: "The interrogation later on should just be a formality. Before the second instance, everything that should be asked, drawn, pleaded guilty, everything should be done properly in the prison …."

The Grand Master interrupted her. "No, you should still come."

Liu Wei frowned.

Grand Master took out his trump card. "County Magistrate Song said that you wouldn't pay if you didn't come."

Liu Wei: "..."

… ….

In the end, Liu Wei still compromised. After bringing her son out of the county magistrate's office, she specially turned around to glance at the county magistrate's entrance, and then said to her son: "Remember, do not receive this kind of extra aid from the yamen."

Xiaoli asked curiously: "Why?"

Liu Wei gritted her teeth, "She's stingy and meddling in other people's business. She already agreed to send the after-sales insurance and an interrogation document, but she's still insisting on it. It's really unpleasant."

Xiaoli grudgingly muttered: "Forget it, County Magistrate Song is pitiful. They probably won't even go to trial, Mother said that they should first have the Jiang clan confess their guilt in prison before the second instance. They probably don't even know what to do."

Liu Wei clicked her tongue: "There's nothing that I don't know about that, Jiang Shi's current situation is a complete failure, if I were to question her now, as long as I speak more seriously and speak more harshly, in just a few rounds, she will admit defeat."

Xiaoli pouted: "We know, but County Magistrate Song doesn't know. In their county's yamen, there isn't even a single official executioner, so they don't understand anything."

Liu Wei thought that would make sense, but she was still depressed: "I feel like I've lost out on this transaction."

Xiaoli laughed, cheerfully shaking her mother's arm, and said in an optimistic tone: "New environment, new personnel, treat it as a discount promotion."
