How could Su Wan allow the matter to end so easily? She arched a brow and then spoke to the official without giving face, " Oh, so you could hear us? I thought that with the lack of reaction, your ears were filled with oil."
The official flushed in embarrassment, the quarrel was so loud how could they not hear? Of course, they could! But they did not want to come out as neither of them thought that it was worth getting mingled with commoners. The official and his colleagues thought that Su Wan and the two men would leave after getting scolded by Lai Baihu, who would have expected that this woman would compare them to the Emperor and say such heavy words.
She was right. Even the Emperor did not turn commoners away from the imperial court, so who were they to turn commoners away when they came to ask for their help? By showing disdain towards commoners weren't they acting above Emperor?
