Chu Shuyu roared through gritted teeth, wishing he could tear the two people to pieces immediately.

"Lord Chu, isn't that a bit unfair of you? Intentional murder? Oh dear! That's a capital offense! Lord Chu, are you just going to condemn us like that?"

"Hehehe... What a fine Dali Temple Vice Minister! I am the third son of the old Zhenguo General's family, and you dare to spout such nonsense and slander us!"

If they were ordinary citizens, wouldn't they be allowed to distort the truth like this?

"Chu Shuyu, you must have a lot of wrongful convictions on your hands, right?"

Chu Yunzhou sneered, his eyes filled with mockery.

As soon as he finished speaking, the way people around Chu Shuyu looked at him changed.

"My God! How terrifying! This is blatant slander! We all saw what happened to the Chu family! This Lord Chu didn't ask any questions and directly tried to frame the direct descendants of the Chu family! No wonder the Chu family was struck by lightning; they must have done too many of these kinds of false accusations!"

"Exactly! It's no wonder that someone so young could push someone into the water and kill them!"

"How could someone like that be allowed into the Dali Temple? It just goes to show how corrupt and filthy the Dali Temple is!"

"I really hope the imperial court can send someone to investigate and take charge! Aren't they cracking down on corrupt officials right now? They should hurry up and investigate at the Dali Temple!"

"That's right, that's right..."

Chu Shuyu listened to the discussions and coldly surveyed the crowd.

Those people immediately shrank back and dared not say another word.

Since ancient times, the common people have never fought against officials; they have an innate fear of those in power.

"Ha! You say I'm wronging you? Then let me ask you why you entered my Chu family for no reason? Our Chu family has always been peaceful and prosperous. How come our Chu family has become like this after you came?"

Seeing that the onlookers had stopped talking, Chu Shuyu continued to stare at Chu Yunzhou and Chu Qingchuan and questioned them.
