"Big brother, kill him and we'll break out!" one of the robbers shouted.

Wang Wenzhou smiled calmly, gently pushed aside the swords and knives in front of his chest, and said indifferently, "You are all able-bodied people with hands and feet. In Hanshan County, even if you go in and out of the city gates several times a day, you will not starve to death. Why do you want to become bandits?"

"Hehe..." Li Feiqing laughed, "Sir, being a robber is just our job. We rob people based on our skills. Stop talking nonsense! Just tell us clearly, will you agree to our conditions or not!"

"Hmph! Since that's the case, I won't stand on ceremony!" Wang Wenzhou snorted coldly.

"Haha..." the robbers laughed.

Wang Wenzhou's expression changed, and he suddenly transformed into a superhero, slapping the nearest robber across the face. The man screamed and flew away.

Wang Wenzhou nodded with satisfaction. This extra's acting skills were quite good; he could be properly trained.

"You're asking for it!" Another robber swung his broadsword at Wang Wenzhou.

Wang Wenzhou dodged the broadsword by sidestepping it, and kicked the man, sending him flying.

"Brothers, get him! Kill him!" Li Feiqing shouted, pointing at Wang Wenzhou.

The onlookers from Hanshan were stunned. Wang Qingtian was truly a man of both literary and martial prowess. He fought against more than a dozen bandits single-handedly and did not lose ground.

Wang Wenzhou waved to the constables and shouted, "Brothers, go! Arrest all these robbers!"

The constables swarmed forward, displaying great bravery in front of the Bai family. In no time, all twenty robbers were subdued.

"Clap clap clap..." The onlookers, surnamed Bai, burst into enthusiastic applause.

"Wang Qing is skilled in both literature and martial arts, a truly capable ruler!"

"Wang Qingtian's actions in eliminating evil and protecting the innocent are a blessing to the common people!"

The people shouted from the bottom of their hearts, and Wang Qingtian's noble image was once again deeply etched in the hearts of the people of Hanshan.

Although Zhang Jiao was unaware of the details, she was well aware of Wang Wenzhou's skills. She rolled her eyes at Wang Wenzhou, walked over to Li Feiqing, picked up a piece of his flesh, and asked fiercely, "Was this the play Wang Wenzhou made you act in?"

"Officer, I don't understand. What do you mean by that?" Li Feiqing shook his head.

"Hmph!" Zhang Jiao snorted coldly, twisting the meat in her hand violently, and said fiercely, "You still dare not tell the truth!"

Li Feiqing was sweating profusely from the pain and dared not hide anything any longer. He quickly begged for mercy, "Officer, please spare me! This is all Lord Wang's doing!"

"Hmph! I knew it!" Zhang Jiao snorted and quickly ran over to help Wang Wenhua up.

"Big brother, are you alright?" Zhang Jiao asked.

"Sigh..." Wang Wenhua sighed softly and said calmly, "Sister-in-law, my elder brother is fine. I have to thank my fifth brother for risking his life to save me today."

"Heh!" Zhang Jiao sneered, "Big brother, you've been fooled. These robbers were all hired by Wang Wenzhou. They're putting on an act. I suspect Wang Wenzhou hired people to beat you up because you opposed him marrying that bastard."

Wang Wenhua tilted his head and gave Wang Wenzhou a cold look.

Wang Wenzhou cupped his hands to the onlookers and said, "Everyone, please disperse. The thugs have been subdued. I would like to remind those who intend to do evil: do not reach out, or you will be caught!"

"Wang Qingtian is mighty!" The people flattered Wang Wenzhou enthusiastically.

"Thank you so much, Lord Wang, for saving me!" Zhao Fengmin cried, tears welling in her eyes, as she threw herself into the hero's arms.

"Minmin, it's alright, don't be afraid!" Wang Wenzhou smiled and gently stroked Zhao Fengmin's hair, comforting her.

"Hmph!" Liu Rushi snorted coldly, turned around and left. Wang Wenzhou, you're a fat, ugly, lecherous liar!

"My lord, you were so brave just now! I was so afraid you would be hurt by the villains." Zhao Fengmin smiled and pressed her face tightly against Wang Wenzhou's chest, speaking softly.

"Minmin, be good!" Wang Wenzhou patted Zhao Fengmin a few times, taking advantage of her.

"My lord, I'm still scared! I think I'll have nightmares tonight. Please stay with me tonight, my lord. Only by your side will I not have nightmares." Zhao Fengmin looked at Wang Wenzhou with deep affection. Since ancient times, beauties have loved heroes, and Lord Wang is both a man of letters and a warrior. Zhao Fengmin wished he would devour her right now.

"Minmin, be good. I still have to hear this case later," Wang Wenzhou said, gently patting Zhao Fengmin's head.

It's not that Wang Wenzhou doesn't want to sleep with top-quality girls; the key issue is that he's not interested in any other girls besides Liu Rushi. Plus, he's a bit of a chauvinist and hates seeing girls cry.

"I'm really scared! Please let me stay by your side!" Zhao Fengmin's eyes sparkled as she looked at Wang Wenzhou in a coquettish manner.

"Okay, okay!" Wang Wenzhou couldn't stand the pleading anymore.

"Hmph!" Wang Wenhua walked over and snorted coldly.

"Brother, are you alright?" Wang Wenzhou asked with a smile.

"When did our silly fifth brother become so skilled? He used to trip and fall flat on his face all the time. If it weren't for his rescue, our eldest brother probably wouldn't be in any danger, right?" Wang Wenhua said sarcastically.

"Hmm?" Wang Wenzhou frowned. Logically speaking, the act he just performed shouldn't have given him away.

"Wang Wenzhou, you are the dignified magistrate of Hanshan County. How can you be so disgraceful as to embrace a brothel prostitute in public?" Zhang Jiao cursed viciously.

"Who's the little bitch? Sir, she's bullying me!" Zhao Fengmin said, tears welling in her eyes.

"Jiaojiao, you're a police officer now, don't keep calling people 'little bitches'! That's so disrespectful!" Wang Wenzhou said irritably.

"Hmph!" Zhang Jiao glared fiercely at Wang Wenzhou. You fatso, you're a pervert!

"Brother, you've been frightened! Go and rest. I still have to go back to the yamen to try these criminals," Wang Wenzhou said with a smile.

"Fifth Brother, Eldest Brother is fine too, I'll go back to the yamen with you. These wicked villains must not be let off lightly!" Wang Wenhua glared fiercely at Wang Wenzhou, thinking, "Silly Fifth Brother, let's see how you keep up this act."

“Brother, you’re too frightened, there’s no need to go to the yamen. Don’t worry, I will definitely not let them off easily!” Wang Wenzhou couldn’t let Wang Wenhua go along and cause trouble. He was the one who had hired these “thugs,” and he couldn’t bear to punish them severely.

The four talented scholars, who usually disliked Wang Wenzhou, were deeply grateful to him for his help today and came over to express their thanks.

Ma Deyun cupped his hands in thanks and said sincerely, "I thank Lord Wang for his righteous rescue!"

"Thank you, Wang Qingtian!" This was the first time Yang Shan had genuinely addressed Wang Wenzhou as Wang Qingtian.

"Thank you!" Sun Feng and Lin Qing expressed their gratitude sincerely.

Wang Wenzhou smiled and waved his hand, "You're too kind! This is what I should do!"
