"Let's go, I will return with you to the Court of Judicature and Revision," Zhou Weiyuan said. Zhou Weiyuan walked steadily towards the Court of Judicature and Revision.
Inside the Court of Judicature and Revision, the atmosphere was solemn and dignified. Zhou Weiyuan stood before the court, facing the judge of the Court of Judicature and Revision, with several stern-faced officials beside him.
"Zhou Weiyuan, do you plead guilty?" The voice of the judge of the Court of Judicature and Revision was authoritative and powerful, echoing in the hall.
Zhou Weiyuan furrowed his brows and replied firmly, "What crime am I being accused of?"
"Someone reported that you embezzled public funds and accepted bribes, and there is sufficient evidence," the judge of the Court of Judicature and Revision said coldly.
Zhou Weiyuan replied in a deep voice, "I have not committed any illegal acts, nor have I colluded with any suspects. If the Court of Judicature and Revision wants to convict me, they need to present sufficient evidence."
"Hmph, I, Zhou Weiyuan, am honest and upright. I have never embezzled public funds, nor have I accepted bribes." He stared directly at the Court of Judicature and Revision judge, his gaze firm and unafraid.
"Is that so? Then what about this evidence?" The Court of Judicature and Revision judge sneered, slamming a thick stack of documents onto the table, bringing them into Zhou Weiyuan's view.
He calmly flipped through the pages, his eyes scanning each one carefully. Every page recorded his "crimes," yet he felt no turmoil within. Looking at these so-called meticulously forged pieces of evidence, he scoffed. "These so-called pieces of evidence are nothing but slander," Zhou Weiyuan said coldly.
"Oh? What evidence do you have to prove your innocence?" the judge of the Court of Judicature and Revision asked with raised eyebrows.
Zhou Weiyuan replied calmly, "The innocent will clear themselves. The Court of Judicature and Revision only needs to uncover the truth behind the false evidence to know the facts."
The judge of the Court of Judicature and Revision sneered, "Innocent will clear themselves? With just this empty talk, you have no substantial evidence. We can only make a judgment based on the evidence we have."
Zhou Weiyuan fell silent for a moment and said, "The innocent will remain innocent!"
The judge of the Court of Judicature and Revision sneered and waved his hand, saying, "Take him away and execute him on a chosen day."
Zhou Weiyuan was taken down by the officials on either side, offering no resistance or defense, simply accepting this sudden fate quietly. He was led out of the main hall and escorted to the prison.
At this moment, Zhou Yanqing finally discovered the imposter Yang Yuruo.
Zhou Yanqing was shocked and angry. The person in front of him was clearly a fake Yang Yuruo. He loudly questioned, "Who are you? Why are you pretending to be Yuruo? What have you done to Yuruo? Where is Yuruo?"
At first, the imposter Yang Yuruo wanted to deny it, but seeing that Zhou Yanqing had already seen through her identity, she knew she couldn't hide it anymore. She sighed and said, "Actually, I was forced to pretend to be Yuruo. The real Yang Yuruo has been kidnapped by my master. They threatened me that if I didn't impersonate her, my family would be in danger."
Zhou Yanqing Upon hearing this news, he felt extremely worried. Zhou Yanqing clenched his fists tightly, his eyes burning with anger, but he knew he had to stay calm at this moment. He told the imposter Yang Yuruo: "No matter who your master is, I will not let them go. As long as you tell me the whereabouts of Yuruo, I can guarantee the safety of you and your family."
However, the imposter Yang Yuruo did not know where Yuruo was. The imposter Yang Yuruo looked helpless, shook her head, and said, "I don't know. I just want to keep my family safe."
Upon hearing this response, Zhou Yanqing's anger grew even stronger. But he knew that his anger was useless at this moment, and he needed to stay calm and find a solution. So, he took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down. Then, he turned to the imposter Yang Yuruo and said coldly, "You can go. I will send someone to ensure the safety of you and your family."
The impostor Yang Yuruo was taken aback by Zhou Yanqing's decision. She expressed her gratitude, saying, "Thank you, thank you," before turning and leaving.
Meanwhile, the real Yang Yuruo had just woken up in a small room. She groggily sat up in bed, looking around in confusion and realizing she was in a completely unfamiliar room. The furnishings were new and seemed carefully arranged. Outside the room, there were dense trees, and sunlight filtered through the leaves, filling the room with a faint fragrance.
Yang Yuruo rubbed her eyes, trying to remember what had happened yesterday, but her memories were hazy. She only remembered her father handing her a cup of tea. She began to feel uneasy and tried to push the door, only to find it locked and impossible to open.
Yang Yuruo became increasingly anxious and began to search for another exit in the room. She found a window in one corner of the room and hurried over to it. However, to her disappointment, the window was also sealed shut and couldn't be opened.
Yang Yuruo's mood gradually turned to despair as she realized that she seemed to be trapped in this room, not knowing why her father would lock her in here. She started calling for help, hoping that someone would hear her voice and come to her rescue.
Suddenly, a voice sounded, "Miss, stop shouting. The master said that you should stay here for a few days, and after three days, you will naturally be let out."
Yang Yuruo was startled by the sudden sound. She peeked through the crack in the door and saw two servants guarding outside the room.
"Why did my father lock me in here?" Yang Yuruo asked the servant at the door with confusion.
The servant replied, "Miss, the master didn't give a reason, he just told us to watch you and make sure you don't wander around."
Yang Yuruo was full of confusion and incomprehension. She didn't understand why her father would do this. She tried to gather more information from the servants, but they were unaware and only faithfully carried out the master's orders. Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and as the door slowly opened, Yang Yuruo immediately saw the face of her father, Yang Wenchang. At the sight of her father, a surge of confusion and incomprehension flooded Yang Yuruo's heart, and she urgently asked, "Father, why have you locked me up here?"
Yang Wenchang looked at his daughter and said in a serious tone, "There's no reason for it!"
"Father, there must be a reason for your actions, right?" Yang Yuruo became increasingly puzzled by her father's behavior.
Yang Wenchang looked at his daughter with a determined look in his eyes, "You don't need to ask too much. From now on, you just need to stay at home and be at ease."
"What do you mean stay at home? Wasn't I supposed to marry Brother Yanqing?" Yang Yuruo asked.
Yang Wenchang said coldly, "You don't need to get married. Zhou Weiyuan was arrested three days ago and was executed yesterday."
Yang Yuruo's face turned pale as she looked at her father in shock. "Dad, what are you saying? uncle Zhou was executed?"
Yang Wenchang nodded and said, "He brought trouble upon himself and chose this path. In the future, don't think about marrying Zhou Yanqing anymore. Your father will find you a good match."
