Ryan Cui's facial muscles twitched so violently that Xie Ying was frightened. She took him into her arms, rubbed his chest and comforted him, "The censor has not come back yet, and it is not certain whether Mr. Cui's case is true or false, or whether it is a frame-up. Besides, it is also a rule for officials outside the province to take some silver from the local area. I don't think Mr. Cui will go too far, and the inspector will not ask too strict questions. I will naturally watch the people below in the Zhenfu Division and use leniency in the punishment, so as not to hurt your body..."
Last time when Ryan Cui's stepmother committed a crime, he was the judge who exiled Xu to Fujian; now the father of this family has fallen into his hands again, and it is another big case. He really feels that he has a lot of bad luck in his fate, and he is suspected of harming his relatives - not only his relatives, but now even his father-in-law!
He felt quite sorry for Ryan Cui and turned his head slightly, not daring to look at his face.
He also didn't see the smile that Ryan Cui finally couldn't hold back, nor did he see the regret that Ryan Cui couldn't help but show when he said he would give a lenient sentence.
Ryan Cui took great effort to suppress his excitement, turned his face towards him, and said solemnly: "I have also read the laws, so I don't know how strict the court's laws are. If my father really has never made a mistake, I believe that the emperor and you will clear my father's name. If... if my father has indeed violated the laws in Yunnan, I can spend all my family wealth to atone for my father's sins, and I can't ask you to bend the law for my family's affairs."
