The hot sun was in the sky, but it did not dissuade the commoners who were watching the commotion outside the Imperial Capital.
In fact, more and more people came to watch.
Even if they couldn't squeeze in, it was good to stand outside and listen.
It was clearly just a small matter of raising a mistress and losing some face. Those who didn't know better would think that something big had happened.
In the hall, Xuanyuan Ce sat on the left. Behind him stood Shen Yijia and Chu Feng.
Thanks to him, Shen Yijia was cleared of suspicion. Moreover, with Xuanyuan Ce as her backer, Lord Cai did not dare to ask her to kneel again.
The Shen siblings stood opposite them. As for Shen Pingxiu, he was carried to the back office for a doctor to treat him.
For the sake of her son, Madam Zhang refused to admit that she was Shen Pingxiu's mistress, but she refused to say anything else.
