Chapter 378 - 375: Kowtow to Thank for the Grace_1
The translation of the provided Chinese text into English is as follows:
For those owing a life, Bai Qingyan also said that later, she would ensure that Lord Zhou provided justice for the deceased.
Bai Qingyan opened the ancestral hall to punish the Bai Clan members who bullied the people of Shuoyang. News that some victims had reclaimed their ancestral homes or received equivalent compensation spread like wildfire through Shuoyang City.
Those victims who initially doubted Bai Qingyan would really punish the Bai Clan members spread the news eagerly.
Soon, more victims arrived. Even elderly people with graying hair, holding the memorial tablets of their sons and daughters-in-law, came to seek justice from the Princess of Zhen.
More and more people gathered in front of the Bai family’s gate. Those who received compensation were all grateful to Bai Qingyan for her great kindness and kowtowed to express their gratitude.
The faces of the elders of the clan, whose grandchildren were involved, grew increasingly grim. Even those Bai Clan members who usually kept to themselves and did not partake in wrongdoing were frightened by the scene and began to glare at their own children and grandchildren, questioning if they had caused any trouble outside.
The commotion in the Bai Clan’s ancestral hall was so immense that the women who had been waiting for news at home couldn’t stay put. They hurried over, stood in the courtyard, and watched their children anxiously through their tears.
