The three large words "Fair and Impartial" were prominently displayed in bright red lacquer, hanging high above the public court. Below, a weary-looking county magistrate, his official robe loosely draped and misaligned, sat at his desk with his hands clasped.

Chapter 236: Soul Reaping
The candlelight flickered, casting shadows across the large guest room, which felt somewhat cramped due to the sheer number of people present. Most of the External Agents officers stood with solemn expressions, while the five Golden Guards seemed indifferent in comparison—two of them even yawned repeatedly. The reason for this sudden gathering at such an hour was none other than the middle-aged man lying on the bed. That man, named Yang Peng, was part of the External Agents Unit B. While patrolling…-

"Mr. Gu, do you believe that for these refugees, dying in the wilderness is fair?" As he spoke, a faint smile flickered across the blue-robed man's face. Gu Ning'an shook his head. "Not at all. What they have suffered is beyond their control—there is no question of fairness or unfairness. If blame must be assigned, it falls on those in power within the Great Wu court, for they are the ones who have cast these people into endless suffering."
