Zhao Huan felt this way, and I believe that everyone who lived through an era with traitors shared this sentiment.

We all work together to survive in this cruel world, to reproduce, and to live a better life. We've worked so hard to be stronger and better than others.

But because of you, the traitor, we might all die! All our efforts might be in vain!

These days, Zhao Huan has been trying hard to restrain himself.

He tried his best not to personally go to Wu Min with a knife and kill him with one blow.

He kept waiting, waiting to see if he could find any new traitors through Wu Min.

He wants to wipe them all out, preferably eradicate them completely!

He couldn't disturb Wu Min. After the Jiaozi case, Wu Min was like a frightened rabbit, keeping a low profile and remaining silent, doing nothing.

Zhao Huan was very patient, observing the situation closely, much like a wolf observing its prey.

Until this day, something happened in Tokyo, which at first was a very small matter.

At first, no one paid attention, but the small matter quickly turned into a big one.

What's up?

Xu Bingzhe's wife, who was serving as the Prefect of Kaifeng, was cursing in the street!

Who are you insulting?

She cursed Shangguan Hongru's daughter, Shangguan Qingyan, calling her a filthy bitch who seduced her man.

If it were just an ordinary shrew cursing in the street, that would be one thing. After all, Tokyo is such a big city, housing prices are so high, and the cost of living is crushing. Ordinary people face a lot of pressure in their lives, so it's understandable that they would vent their frustrations.

But this shrew is the wife of the acting Vice Magistrate of Kaifeng!

The position of Acting Prefect of Kaifeng is equivalent to a third-rank official position!

A court official, the chief administrator of the capital!

His wife was actually cursing in the street!

Even the government can't make a judgment on this matter.

The patrolling officials in the capital tried to stop her, but were scolded and, upon learning her identity, dared not move.

Finally, the Imperial Guards intervened and "invited" Zhang Yue'e back.

The wife of the acting prefect of Kaifeng did not even give face to the Imperial City Guards, scolding them and threatening them.

But the Imperial City Guard is the emperor's personal army. Even if you are a prince or prime minister, if you offend the Imperial City Guard here, sorry, you'd better go back to your place!

Not going back?

Tie him up!

After Zhang Yue'e was taken back to the Imperial City Guard, she was slapped ten times before she finally calmed down.

He Liming was eating a steamed bun when he saw his subordinate beating a woman, and he couldn't help but want to stand up...

He applauded his subordinates and shouted, "Well done!"

Zhang Yue'e was somewhat bewildered after being beaten, as she had never been beaten before.

She burst into tears, crying, "You're all bastards! You're all bastards! That damned Xu Bingzhe! When you were taking the imperial examinations, you said you'd be good to her for life, but now that you're a high-ranking official, you're flirting with that vixen!"

What a typical scumbag!

He Liming couldn't help but shake his head. How come the Imperial City Guard is now in charge of everything these days?

He really wanted his men to send the woman away so she wouldn't disturb his breakfast.

But this woman happens to be Xu Bingzhe's wife, and this matter has already involved court officials, so it should be handled by the Imperial City Guard!

A guard from the Imperial City Guard said, "It's perfectly normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines!"

"Pah! Xu Bingzhe, that shameless bastard, wants to divorce me and marry that shameless little vixen! Shameless!"

The Imperial Guards looked at each other and decided it was best to send the woman back and let Xu Bingzhe handle it himself.

Although it involved officials appointed by the imperial court, it was ultimately a family matter.

As she spoke, Zhang Yue'e even started to cry.

This crying disturbed the men of the Imperial City Guard.

A beautiful sixteen-year-old girl was crying, which made people feel sorry for her, and everyone was willing to step forward to offer her warmth.

Even if she's a beautiful woman in her twenties, no one will mind.

But Zhang Yue'e...

Zhang Yue'e continued cursing: "Xu Bingzhe, you bastard, how many things have I hidden from you! I've never told anyone about your embezzlement of government funds! Even when I caught you writing a letter to collude with the Jin army last year, I didn't mention it a word..."

Suddenly, everyone in the room was stunned.

He Liming almost choked to death on the half-eaten steamed bun he had just swallowed.

He quickly grabbed the water and gulped it down.

Without a word, the three Imperial Guards immediately grabbed Zhang Yue'e and dragged her into the small room next door like a pig being slaughtered, and began their interrogation.

I thought it was just Xu Bingzhe's family matter, a small thing that would pass and at most become a laughing stock.

At most, He Liming would say to the emperor that Xu Bingzhe was not morally upright and had no integrity, and that he was going to abandon his wife.

I believe the emperor wouldn't say anything. As long as the laws of the Song Dynasty aren't violated, the emperor wouldn't bother with the family affairs of his ministers.

But I didn't expect the plot to turn so quickly; even novels wouldn't be written like this.

Suddenly, the focus shifted to Xu Bingzhe's embezzlement of government funds and his collusion with the Jin army!

The smell of the steamed bun in He Liming's mouth hadn't even dissipated yet, so he quickly tidied himself up and began the interrogation.

He took a chair and sat down.

Upon seeing this imposing atmosphere, filled with murderous intent, Zhang Yue'e was immediately frightened and calmed down.

He Liming waved his hand and said, "What are you doing! How are you treating Madam Xu! Let go! Apologize to Madam Xu!"

He Liming added, "Xu Bingzhe is truly a scoundrel. As far as we know, he won't divorce you because it wouldn't sound good if word got out. He'll try to murder you!"

"Don't believe me? Ask them! Isn't that right?"

The subordinate beside him nodded hurriedly: "That's right, Xu Bingzhe is a scoundrel!"

Zhang Yue'e looked at these people with some fear: "How did you know?"

“We are the Emperor’s personal guards, and Xu Bingzhe is a court official. How could we not know?”

"Think about it, he's a third-rank minister, the acting prefect of Kaifeng, how prestigious is he? Doesn't he have any shame? Divorce you? If you make a scene with him, and it gets back to the court, how embarrassing will that be!"

"I'll kill you by accident, like choking on your food, choking on your water, or falling and dying while walking!"

"Then, in his grief, he mourned his beloved wife, and everyone thought he was a devoted man!"

"After he finished crying, he turned around and married that person, who was it again, Shangguan Qingyan. Shangguan Qingyan became the mistress of the house, and then he used your money to beat your child! As for you, you're already dead, buried alone in the ground, rotting away!"

Zhang Yue'e was terrified. She had been too scared to speak by the Imperial City Guard, but now, after hearing He Liming's words, she was furious.

That damn scumbag!

You dare to play dirty tricks on me!

I'll kill you first!

He Liming saw hatred in Zhang Yue'e's eyes.

So you can offend anyone, but never offend a woman.

When a woman is angry, she won't reason with you.

P.S.: Still asking for your votes!!!
