Everything in the world has a cause and an effect. Chen Yi used to bully men and women by relying on Duke Lu's mansion, and now he happens to take the blame for Duke Lu.
Shen Yi's face was as pale as paper. He knew that this time, Tian Zhen was going to destroy him.
Shen Yilai confessed his guilt, but Zhou Yang didn't believe it at all. He insisted on investigating it thoroughly.
But the people sent out were still one step behind Duke Lu, and the officials who transported the goods all said that they were deceived by Shen Yi.

At first, He Zhengchu didn't bother with them, just a few words of warning, telling them not to joke with him. But the young masters of the aristocratic families in the capital didn't take it seriously, and some still did what they wanted.
One day, Guangjibo's son Lu Fang teased He Zhengchu again, "Zhengchu, if you put on women's clothes, you would be more beautiful than the top prostitute in Yanhaolou."
Someone bumped into Lu Fang and teased him, "Lu Fang, why are you staring at Zheng Chu every day? Could it be that you also admire Zheng Chu?"
