Chapter 1856: Gu Yundong Is Here
Editor: Henyee Translations
The group quickly left the market and turned into a small alley outside before stopping.
Old Madam Yang heaved a sigh of relief and asked worriedly, "Shuitao, is the vendor alright?"
"Don’t worry, he’s fine." Tong Shuitao had followed Gu Yundong for so long. Although her temper had become domineering, she was not completely brainless.
If she dared to make a move, she could guarantee that nothing would happen.
As expected, when the officers rushed to the scene, they saw more than ten stall owners lying on the ground and wailing.
One of them pointed in the direction Tong Shuitao had left and howled, "Master, it’s that woman just now. She beat us up like this."
The others also started talking at once. It was so noisy that the officers had a headache.
However, since these dozen or so vendors could make a name for themselves in this area, they naturally had some connections with the officials in charge of this market.
When two of them heard their complaints, they turned around and wanted to chase after the criminal without a word.
On the other hand, the officer who had spoken to Gu Yunshu earlier could tell that something was wrong. He pulled the two officers back and asked the stall owners with a frown, "You just said... the Yang family’s old lady? Which Yang family?"
"Who else could it be? It’s the famous Yang Zhifu from our county."
At the mention of Yang Zhifu, the expressions of the officials suddenly changed.
Just because these vendors were not well-informed did not mean that they did not know.
The news about Princess Yongjia of Yang Zhifu’s family spread among the officials.
When they heard that there was a princess around, they even became careful and diligent.
Otherwise, their boss wouldn’t have heard that someone was causing trouble and sent a few officers in one go.
Hearing the words of these small vendors, the officers were almost angered to death.
The few officers looked at each other and tied them up without a word. "How dare you cause trouble in the market? Come to the government office with us."
The vendors were stunned. They had already been beaten to the ground and could not get up. Now, they were tied up one by one.
"W-What’s going on? Master, we’re the victims. That person hit us and even overturned our stall. Master, we’re innocent."
"What do you mean by victims?" The messenger raised his hand and hit him on the head. "How dare you insult Princess Yongjia’s biological mother. It’s already a light punishment for them to teach you a lesson, but you don’t know how to repent. Come with us and repent completely before you’re allowed to come out."
"Princess? What princess?"
The onlookers were also at a loss. They looked at the outcome of the small vendors in shock and inexplicably panicked.
When the officers saw this, they were afraid that these people would still offend others so easily, so they simply spread the news to them.
As soon as the officers finished speaking, everyone was speechless.
Yang Zhifu’s granddaughter was actually a princess!
Not only had he found his daughter who had been missing for many years, but he also had a granddaughter who was a princess. His grandson-in-law was also a capital official.
Wouldn’t Yang Zhifu’s family be rich in the future?
So what if his assets were gone? So what if his son was unfilial? So what if he was chased out of the house and could only stay in the small courtyard?
Weren’t they enjoying life now?
In the future, not to mention ordinary people like them, even the county magistrate had to be respectful to them.
Jealousy made them outraged.
However, these people did not know that the princess they were talking about was behind them.
