"Bah!" The gavel sounded, and Mr. Ji shouted: "Whoever dares to make noise and hurt others in the courtroom will be punished with fifty canes."

Those who wanted to help were too scared to move and knelt back obediently.

Shen Wan let go of the old woman's hand, knelt down again, raised her hands and said to Magistrate Ji: "This old woman has hurt people in the court, despised the king's law, and treated you as nothing. Shouldn't you deal with her?"

Hui'er's face was scratched with blood. We can't just let it go. Those who hurt others must pay the price.

Mr. Ji frowned, looked at the old woman's age, and hesitated. According to the law, anyone who makes a noise in the court and hurts others will be dealt with according to the severity of the case.

Cao Dian immediately cupped his hands and said, "Grandma Yang lost her temper in the court because her grandson had her legs broken. She saw her enemy get excited and she lost her temper in court. She doesn't know the rules in the court either. Please look at Grandma Yang's age." Damn, please forgive her for not knowing the rules."

"Widow Shen is so cruel. Grandma Yang is so old, but she still wants the prefect to punish her."

"My grandson had his legs broken. He was so angry that he took action in the court. It is understandable."

"That's right, that's right. It's said that those who don't know are not to blame. This Widow Shen is too intolerant."

"If she was tolerant, she wouldn't beat the elderly and children."

The people standing outside the court looked at Shen Wan who was kneeling in the court with disdain, and they said each other one by one.

Hui'er was so angry that her lungs were about to explode. She covered her arrested face with a handkerchief and thought bitterly, couldn't these people just tell the other side what happened and then make a conclusion?

Why should their wife be scolded like this when she is such a good person?

Shen Wan doesn't care what others think of her or say about her at the moment. She always believes that the truth can't be false, and the lies can't be true. Lies will always be exposed. So what she has to do now is to let the arrest The old lady who hurt Hui'er's face was punished.

"Is it okay to not follow the rules when you are older?" Shen Wan seemed to be asking Cao Dian and everyone else.

Cao Dian: "...Don't Grandma Yang know this rule?"

"Oh -" Shen Wan stretched her neck and raised her voice in a drawn-out voice. "It turns out that you can break the rules if you don't know them! Then if I don't know that murder is illegal, does that mean I'll kill you? Not guilty!"

Cao Dian: "..."

Shen Wan said seriously: "The court is a sacred place, representing justice and the dignity of the law. But if someone makes a noise in the court and hurts others, this is contempt of the court and trampling on the law. How can it be because of ignorance? , because he is old, he can be exempted from the punishment he deserves. If he is exempted this time, next time someone makes trouble in the hall, knowing clearly that he cannot do that, but saying that he does not know, must he be exempted in order to be fair? ?”

"If everyone follows suit, who will fear this majestic and holy court and the law?"

Everyone in the hall was stunned by Shen Wan's impassioned speech and fell into silence.

These words simply spoke to the hearts of Master Ji and Master. Yes, the court is such a place. Whether it is the court or the law, one must have awe.
