“You…” Lei Yangqiu’s face changed dramatically, a wave of anger surging in his chest, “Wang Shouzhe, you are just making nonsense accusations.”
“The accusations are real, but whether they are nonsense or not, naturally, depends on discernment.” Wang Shouzhe said leisurely, “The second point is not a matter of dissatisfaction, but I, Wang Shouzhe, deeply question the integrity and professional standards of a Councilor like you. You know, we, as members of a Prominent Family, have the right to oversee the actions and laws followed by the Councilor.”
“A Councilor should adhere to the Da Qian law fairly handle cases. Let’s see what exactly you have done?”
“What about this Councilor has not been fair?” Although Lei Yangqiu was furious, he vaguely felt something was wrong.
Wang Shouzhe was vehemently upright, and loudly said: “In the Da Qian law, there are natural steps for adjudicating a case. Firstly, you used your power to oppress and directly blocked the self-defenses of the two untried suspects.”
“Secondly, without any questioning or listening to their confessions to verify if the crime was consistent with the investigation, or inquiring if they had accomplices or any puppet-master in the background, or if the case had any hidden aspects, or even if there were any old cases that were not dug up yet, you concluded they were the unforgivable criminals. I am interested to see how you write up your closing statements. This kind of professional ethic, as an Officer-In-Charge, is something I, Wang Mou, cannot agree with.”
“Thirdly, you hastily decided the case without any trial, which is inherently irregular. I really didn’t expect that you would indirectly hint and subtly threaten the suspects, who were not sentenced yet, to commit suicide. There are only two explanations for this. One, is that you’re afraid that more people will be implicated during the trial of the suspects. Two, you’re very impatient about this matter and are trying to hastily conclude this case. I, Wang Mou, am deeply afraid of either of these two possibilities.”
“Today, you’ve hastily dealt with the bloodline relations of Liu and Zhao clans like this. Tomorrow, you might subjectively convict members of my Wang family. I, Wang Mou, am quite scared.”
“You…” Lei Yangqiu’s face went as red as a tomato, angered to the point of stepping back a few steps, with his eyes wide open, “Wang Shouzhe, you dare to make accusations out of the blue.”
A wave of overwhelming oppressive aura enveloped Wang Shouzhe.
“What a powerful official aura you have.” Faced with this force, Wang Shouzhe remained unfazed, the oppressive power of the Spiritual Platform Realm is mostly a psychological deterrent for those lower in the food chain. The amount of Divine Mind Power it contained could not harm him with his seventh level of Vital Energy Refining Realm strength.
Seeing Lei Yangqiu exerting the oppression of the Spirit Platform Realm, The Old Ancestor expected to step in front of Wang Shouzhe to help him out, but he didn’t expect him to be utterly unfazed, causing him to admire his grandson even more.
He had to admit, everything his grandson said made a lot of sense. Lei Yangqiu’s methods were clearly not up to the standards of a Councilor mandated by Da Qian.
He had a hunch that with his grandson’s capabilities, Lei Yangqiu was likely to be in trouble. His grandson was not one to make empty threats.
Even the Old Ancestor felt some sympathy for Lei Yangqiu. This fellow was, after all, a respectable Spiritual Platform Realm cultivator. He was forced by Wang Shouzhe to take action against the Liu and Zhao families first, using him as a tool to carry out the murder.
After using him, Wang Shouzhe immediately started to disengage, like trying to get rid of a dirty piece of toilet paper after wiping himself.
Not just the old ancestor thought this way.
Members of the Wang family, the Liu siblings, all felt that what Wang Shouzhe said made sense. Either Lei Yangqiu was not capable of holding the position of a Councilor, or he had some malicious intent and had some deep connection with the Liu and Zhao families.
No matter the case, him holding the position of Councilor in Ping’an Town was a disaster.
Around a thousand spectators, who in the beginning thought that Lei was a good Councilor for handling the case, had their hairs stand on end and felt chilled after hearing Leader Wang’s analysis.
Yes, is it good to have such a Councilor who disregards the country’s law, acts recklessly, and hastily closes cases? Today he can randomly deal with the Liu and Zhao families, tomorrow he can arbitrarily deal with the Wang Family, and the day after tomorrow, he may start slaughtering the common people in his jurisdiction.
A Councilor should maintain peace and comfort in his area.
Now everyone was afraid. Who wouldn’t fear such a Councilor with no respect for the law?
With purposeful guidance, the public discussions grew louder and were filled with more and more agitation. Everyone felt that there were big problems with Councilor Lei.
The growing noise of discussions reached Lei Yangqiu’s ears, causing his heart to sink gradually. The public opinion was boiling.
Even the clansmen of the Liu and Zhao clans and even the old ancestors Liu Zhide and Zhao Bojun, were sneering without the least bit of sympathy for Lei Yangqiu’s predicament. Instead, they had a sense of schadenfreude.
Lei Yangqiu, Lei Yangqiu, did you imagine this scene when you were dealing with us just now?
Seeing that the situation was about right, Wang Shouzhe immediately sneered with a bowing of his hands, saying, “Commander Lei, I experienced your power. But this Changning defense is not monopoly of Celestial Lei Family.”
“This matter, I will record in detail from beginning to end, make several copies, one to be sent to the prefect of the First Capital City, one to the Purple Abode Academic Palace, and one to the Longzuo County Commandery Prince’s Residence. Right and wrong will be judged by the adults. I won’t believe in this fallacy. There must be a place in our great Da Qian Land that will stand for the people. If that doesn’t work, I will appeal to the national capital.”
“Brother Shouzhe is right, I also think that Commander Lei is not quite fit to lead one side,” Liu Ruolei spoke passionately as she stepped out, “I will entrust this letter to the Purple Abode Academy to Old Ancestor Xuanfu.”
“Thank you Sister Ruolei for your strong support,” Wang Shouzhe thanked with a bow, “Although my Wang family also has some connections to the Academy that can handle such matters.”
“Could it be… Bing?” Liu Ruolei exclaimed with joy, “Has she forgiven my grandmother?”
“It can’t be said, it can’t be said.” Wang Shouzhe vaguely alluded to Master Binglan, not daring to lie directly, just in case it got to Master Binglan’s ears, trouble would ensue.

And sure enough, Liu Ruolei laughed, “Since Brother Shouzhe already has a plan, I won’t meddle. With her around, the Academy will surely react.”
Lei Yangqiu was truly shocked, he suddenly felt an intense chill in his heart.
With Wang Shouzhe’s words, no one around him was on his side. If the command post of the First Capital City was alerted and an envoy was dispatched to investigate, he feared that no one would speak out in his favor.
Furthermore, Wang Shouzhe’s words were not mere threats, how could he survive an investigation?
As Wang Shouzhe said, Changning’s defense was not solely under the control of the Lei family. His family had spent a lot of effort to put him in this position. If it devolved into a family dispute, he would be the first to suffer.
Wang Shouzhe, this boy’s ability to control the situation was terrifying!
At that moment, he quickly retracted his aura and looked at Wang Shouzhe with an amiable expression, giving him a salute, “Brother Wang, could I have a word with you?”
Wang Shouzhe returned the salute and gently refused, “Commander Lei, you jest. We have no quarrel. Please, speak your mind publicly.”
Lei Yangqiu was furious, but was held firmly in their grip, and his life’s prospects were now completely at their mercy.
At that moment, he no longer cared about his dignity, and said with a ingratiating smile, “Clan Leader Wang, in your opinion, what should I do? Rest assured, I swear I will not make things difficult for the Wang family again.”
“Commander Lei, my Wang family has done nothing against the law, so why do we need your oath not to create trouble? At this point, I can only offer you one piece of advice,” Wang Shouzhe bowed.
“What advice?” Lei Yangqiu asked with a sinking heart.
“I suggest you save some face for your family,” Wang Shouzhe finished, turned and walked away.
What?
Wasn’t this the advice he had given Liu Shengze and Zhao Jinda earlier?
“Wang Shouzhe, you…” Lei Yangqiu, enraged, spat out a mouthful of blood.
