Chapter 569: Your Wound
Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Gu Chaoyan said this without bending herself, as she stood there with back straight.
She had just been hit five times and she was at the verge of collapsing, but she looked very resolute as she had her eyes upon the Officer.
The Officer was shocked. He had no idea who Elder Miss was suing when she walked into the office. He had thought that she was defending those refugees, but never her dowries!
The laws of the Saint Divine Land were stated clearly. It was written that girls should have their dowries, while the husband’s family should not be involved.
The Elder Miss of the Gu Family had a mother who passed away when she was still little, and the Elder Miss was the only child left. So it was totally reasonable that Elder Miss should have the dowries.
And that was so for all women. However, laws were one thing, but most of the time, it was the public comments that had the power in that era.
There had been a few similar cases in the past…
Some girls did get the dowries back, but they had to bear the name of not having filial piety to their father and get disdained by her husband’s family until they passed away in pity.
That was what happened to ordinary people when they tried to sue their father. What about the Elder Miss?
She was going to marry Lord Huai, and she was going to be an active figure in the noble families of the whole capital.
She was someone who would not possibly sue her father for the dowries. Probably that was what the Old Master of the Gu Family was thinking, thus being so fearless, but… The Elder Miss had hit the drums.
It was a behavior ordinary girls would never have done, however, it got done by the Elder Miss instead.
The Officer, who had not understood the behavior, now understood everything. He looked at Gu Chaoyan in admiration!
The Government Office in the capital was different from that in the county, and the Officers of these two places were in charge of different things. The Officer in the capital Government Office was always in charge of some small errands of the civilians, since there were officers everywhere.
However, today… the Officer got totally fired up inwardly!
“Elder Miss, I will take your case and will review it fairly and justly, please be assured!” the Officer said attentively.
Gu Chaoyan threw a look at him.
The Officer’s eyes were sparkling. That surprised her a great deal – this was an ambitious Officer with a goal of life!
Gu Chaoyan nodded.
The Officer continued, “One more thing, Elder Miss, you have to be aware that your case has to be reviewed in public, any problems with that?”
“No.” Gu Chaoyan answered.
She had come to sue Gu Zhenkang, so she had nothing to fear or to show. The case could be reviewed in public!

“You have just been hit, please go home to take a rest. We will review the case the day after tomorrow, and we will send staff to bring you here,” the Officer said.
“Yes.” Gu Chaoyan answered.
When she was about to leave the Government Office, she bowed to the Officer as a way of showing respect, even though she, as the future Princess Consort, did not have to do that.
The Officer responded to the bow as well, then Gu Chaoyan left.
As she went back to the wagon, Sword One said concernedly, “Elder Miss, please let me check your wound!”
