Invincible Divine Destiny Selection System

Though Li San was a servant, he was a servant of the Prime Minister's Mansion, which set him apart from other servants.

Moreover, accustomed to wielding power with Li Yu, he wouldn't ev yield to minor noble offspring, daring to lift a hand against them.

"Teach him a lesson."

Li Yu spoke nonchalantly, feeling displeased by Chu Yuan's demeanor.

"Yes, young master!" Li San advanced with large steps, wearing a sinister grin: "Heh heh, it's the young master's order. Boy, you are in for bad luck!"

In the momt he finished speaking, Li San raised his large hand, ready to strike. One slap from him could twist anyone's mouth out of shape.

"Bug off!"

Just as Li San's slap was about to land, a glint of cold light shone from Chu Yuan's eyes.

With a smack, the crowd saw that instead of Chu Yuan receiving a slap, the young man had lifted his hand and smacked Li San, sding him rolling on the g.

"You!"

Li Yu's expression changed. Li San was his servant, so to slap Li San was equivalt to slapping his own face. After all, you have to watch the master before striking a dog.

"Well done!"

Chu Xiaoniang applauded cheerfully.

"Good, good, how dare you assault my man. Fine th, boy, who are you? If you're brave ough, state your name."

Li Yu was raged. Originally intding to take action, he gave a cold smirk, "Hmph! We'll settle our score later, but first there's a matter to deal with. You claim that I forcibly bought your Liu Family's mansion. I am not the kind of person to act without reason. I'll give you a chance; let's go to court and let the prefect pass judgmt on this."

"Go to court!" The old man's face changed dramatically: "We can't go!"

"It seems like you're feeling guilty." Li Yu was not in a good mood.

"No worries, we'll accompany him to court and see how the Judge decides. Rest assured, I refuse to believe there's no law and order in the Imperial City. Geral Liu was a loyal and patriotic hero of Dawu. After the death of such a loyal official, how could his family be subjected to humiliation? If others won't stand up for him, I will."

Chu Yuan's expression did not change.

"Th come with me to the governmt office."

Upon hearing Chu Yuan's words, Li Yu felt mocked. Ev though law existed, it was not within his power.

The Imperial City's governmt office was imposing and attracted a large crowd of people at this time.

Inside the governmt office of the Imperial City, a large number of bailiffs gathered, and sitting in the highest position was a dignified middle-aged man, Song Ying, the governor of Dawu, an important minister of the court.

Being able to hold the position of city governor implied a high level of martial prowess.

This kind of small matter usually could be simply handled by a few bailiffs, but today, it involved the sixth son of the Prime Minister. He had to give him face, treating the matter seriously.

"Governor Song, how have things be lately? I have a matter I need you to arbitrate."

Li Yu looked at Song Ying and laughed, "I still believe in the rule of law in the Imperial City. The Governor is the person in charge of the laws; he'll definitely make a fair judgmt on this matter."

"Within the Imperial City, it is my duty to handle this matter. Ev if the young master Li didn't mtion it, I would have handled it fairly."

Sitting above at the court, Song Ying also felt a headache coming on.

He had already guessed that the sixth son of the Li family had provoked some trouble again, and he had to resolve it, causing him to sigh inwardly.

Although the status of the governor of the Imperial City was higher than that of other counties, at the foot of the Emperor, there were too many ministers whose power and status surpassed his. Many matters needed to be considered, making it less comfortable than being a governor elsewhere.

"Who is the defdant? State your name."

"This one is the steward of Geral Liu Tian's mansion," the old man trembled as he spoke.

"Geral Liu Tian?" Thought Song Ying, his face changing slightly as he remembered the former Geral of the Divine Martial Army.

The Divine Martial Army had become a taboo topic in Dawu.

"Governor Song, here's the situation: I took a liking to the Liu family's estate and bought it using silver. However, the Lius accepted the paymt but refuse to recognize the transaction. On the contrary, they've be making a fuss, claiming that I forcefully occupied their property.

I thought that since Geral Liu is no longer with us, I would do a good deed by giving a little extra to take care of them. But unexpectedly, they are persistt in their ways and ev hired someone to hurt one of my servants. I had no choice but to ask the Governor for justice."

Li Yu sighed as he told the tale. Although he was a prodigal, his ability to weave schemes was formidable. With a few words, he painted himself as the victim, and the Liu family as the villains.

Song Ying's brows furrowed, he did not believe Li Yu's one-sided story, "Do you have proof?"

"The proof naturally exists." On his way to the governor's mansion, Li Yu ordered someone to bring the title deed, "The deed is right here, in black and ."

"Indeed, there is a deed of transfer, so are there still problems to be settled? The Liu mansion now belongs to Li Yu per this agreemt."

With a glance, Song Ying tried not to escalate the situation, "If there are no disputes, the agreemt should be upheld."

"I.... I dare not," the old man gritted his teeth.

"Thank you, your honor, for upholding justice."

Li Yu looked triumphant. Compared to him, the old man was too weak. Immediately after, he said, "There's another matter here. One of my servants was assaulted. Is there law and order within the Imperial City? Is there divine justice?"

"Violce is forbidd within the Imperial City."

Song Ying saw Li San, whose face had swoll like a pig's, and shook his head, "Bring the attacker here!"

Dealing with this trivial matter made him annoyed. He'd better hurry up and sd Li Yu away, as the currt political situation was incredibly unstable.

"You dare to swagger in front of the Governor, not ev kneeling down?"

Li Yu watched Chu Yuan slowly stride into the court, reprimanding him.

"In the Imperial City, at the foot of the Emperor, it seems that the rule of law does not exist anymore, ev lowly villains dare to make a stir. Liu Tian was a loyal official of Dawu, he sacrificed himself for the country. It is heart-breaking that his descdants have to dure such treatmt. Part of it is due to my lack of vigilance."

Chu Yuan and Chu Xiaoniang slowly approached, their gazes resting on Song Ying sitting on the high platform. He spoke calmly, "Governor Song Ying, is it your inttion for me to kneel?"

"Still arrogant?"

Li Yu sneered continuously.

"Who are you?"

Song Ying suddly heard the voice, his face turned gloomy. He had just picked up the teacup from the table wh he got a good look at the face in front of him. His hand trembled, the teacup overturned, and his legs quivered.

"Governor Song, sitting high up there today you seem very imposing. Li Yu brings a deed and you immediately close the case. It seems that being the governor is pretty easy. As the former Geral of the Divine Martial Army, all matters pertaining to Liu Tian should be reported upwards. This is a serious matter and not to be concluded casually."

Chu Yuan spoke slowly. His every word drove deep into Song Ying's heart.

"You dare to make such unreasonable assertions in front of the governor. This is absolutely preposterous." Li Yu exclaimed, "Lord Governor, this kid doesn't kneel upon seeing you. I suggest the bailiffs beat him until he kneels. Only th can we demonstrate the law of our Dawu."

"Shut up, just shut up!"

Song Ying almost roared.

Seeing Song Ying's reaction, Li Yu was somewhat startled. He defded the governor. Where had he made a mistake to upset him so much?

"Today, I heard someone shouting, 'Is there no law in Dawu anymore?'."

Chu Yuan continued.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! This servant deserves death!"

In the d, Song Ying couldn't stand it any longer. He hurriedly ran down from his high platform and knelt in front of Chu Yuan, chanting, "Long live the Emperor! It's this servant's fault, it's my dereliction of duty. Please forgive this servant, Your Majesty. At the foot of the Emperor, there is certainly law and order!"
