“They’re just a bunch of lowly people. Have the guards chase them away.”
The clerk said anxiously, "It's not just the deceased's family members, but also people from Yulin Academy. There are at least a hundred of them. How can we possibly drive them away?"
Wang Zheng was immediately furious.

The advisor explained,
