Wang Shi's Testimony

Gu Qingluan glanced at his momentary hesitation, chuckled, and allowed the three to continue speaking.

This time, Gu Zhicheng didn't interrupt.

After the three finished speaking, Shuntian Prefecture's magistrate followed the procedure and allowed Gu Zhicheng to refute the accusations.

Gu Zhicheng snorted angrily, "Baseless accusations, pure nonsense!"

He lifted his head and looked at the Magistrate of Shuntian. "Magistrate, you've resolved so many cases. Can you really convict someone based solely on a few words?"

The magistrate nodded. "Gu Family Head makes a valid point. Do you three have any physical evidence?"

Twenty years had passed; where could they find physical evidence?

Seeing the three individuals stuttering and unable to provide any evidence, Gu Zhicheng sneered, "Without evidence, it's mere slander. You have quite the audacity!"

He shouted sternly, causing the three of them to tremble with fear.
