The minister was so frightened that he fell to his knees, kowtowed repeatedly, and begged Shen Yunxiao to revoke his order. Cold sweat oozed from his forehead and he banged his head heavily on the ground.
"Your Majesty, Lord Zou did not mean to do this. After all, Miss Lu previously worked as a caregiver for the Ye family, raising children, and no one had ever heard of her making such a contribution. This is why Lord Zou misunderstood. Please forgive him this time!"
