Su Shiba had a frigid aura around him as he glared at the magistrate with killing intent. The latter had never seen such a gaze before. He muttered, "Sh-she's the princess?"
The magistrate was terrified as he looked at the young lady holding the token before him. As the magistrate, he knew about Princess Ruobing's death. He also knew that Lan Ruozhu had acknowledged another as his sister, making her a true princess.
Furthermore, Su Binglan had recently lived in the deceased royal's mansion and had an excellent relationship with the prince. The magistrate also heard that Su Binglan had helped many people and was loved by many.
The magistrate did not take the news seriously when he learned of Su Binglan's identity. After all, he never thought she would visit such a remote place as Yang County.
The magistrate was frightened and guilty. His heart almost jumped out of his chest. Meanwhile, the surrounding commoners were just as shocked.
