Madam Lu angrily said, "Go ask! You've buried all the blood and bones of the Earl's family in there. After you die, if no one is there to see you off, just let the wild dogs drag you away and eat you."
Xie Zhaozhao coldly asked the old lady, "Do you know what His Majesty ordered us to come to the palace today?"
