"Are you trying to force an old woman like me to death?"
Mrs. Shen burst into tears and looked at Yang Zhao with disappointment. "Ah Zhao, Li'er and I have already said that if you can't tolerate that lowly concubine, just sell her off. Why would you have to go to such lengths just for a concubine?"
"Do you know that beating the drum without permission will result in death?"
"You are so confused..."
After saying this, Old Lady Shen tearfully recounted the whole story of what had happened today to Lord Pei. "Sir, this is all my fault. It was because I failed to properly manage my own inner house that such a fatal mistake occurred. I beg you to be lenient with your punishment, your grandson's wife..."
"How shameless!"
"Yeah, I've seen shameless people before, but this is the first time I've seen someone so shameless. It's really an eye-opener."
"I've said before that the Shen family is rotten from the root. Look at this old lady's face as she throws dirty water on her granddaughter-in-law without blinking an eye. It's really disgusting."
"If Lord Pei hadn't already interrogated the servants who gave false testimony, Madam Shen would have been divorced and left with this dirty water on her back... A divorced woman's fate is like being torn to pieces by a white silk thread. This Shen family is truly cruel."

They all gave false testimony at the Shen family before.
"Why are they here..." They are all servants of the Shen family. When were they brought here? How could she not know?
Shen Li had noticed it long ago.
He even noticed Emperor Wenyuan, whose bright yellow robe was visible above the high wall...
And at this time.
He also saw the military officers dressed in armor and official uniforms, accompanied by their wives, walking out of the crowd, as well as the Minister of Revenue, Lord Wang, Doctor Li...
In a flash.
Shen Li suddenly figured something out. He suddenly looked at Yang Zhao and his face turned pale in an instant.
At this moment, Yang Zhao straightened his back, raised his eyes to look at the high wall, and said loudly, "Your Majesty, I want to sue the Shen family for five crimes. The first is marriage fraud, the second is favoring a concubine and killing the wife, the third is plotting to murder important officials of our dynasty, the fourth is causing the people to become displaced, and the fifth is deceiving the emperor..."
