“Lawless, she’s really lawless!”

The scholar in blue was so angry that his face turned red, and a few veins popped out on his forehead.

The other two scholars at the same table were also filled with righteous indignation.

They were all scholars, and they hated those things that bullied men and women the most.

Scholar Han sneered and mocked, “Like father, like daughter. Gu Ce’s daughter is indeed his daughter. She’s ruthless!”

The young woman who was full of praise for Second Lady Gu just now was in disbelief. She directly asked Scholar Han, “Are you serious? Is Second Lady Gu really Gu Ce’s daughter…”

“It’s true!” Scholar Han’s voice seemed to be squeezed out of his teeth. His expression was solemn, and his eyes were bloodshot.

He sat upright on the bench, one hand clenched into a fist on the table, his thin body tense as a fully drawn bowstring.

“By the way, Second Lady Gu must be Gu Ce’s daughter.” The old man beside him said angrily, “Not long ago, I heard that the Gu family’s daughter was going to overturn Gu Ce’s case. I thought it was just a rumor. Now it seems that there’s no smoke without fire!”

“What?!” Scholar Han exclaimed in disbelief. “She wants to clear Gu Ce’s name?!”

“Because of Gu Ce’s fault alone, tens of thousands of innocent people died in Yangzhou. For this, not only did our Great Jin compensate, but we also cut off the Yellow Water Ocean to give to the State of Yue in exchange for a peace treaty between the two countries.”

“Gu Ce is the biggest sinner of the Great Jin!”

“Even if I burn his bones and scatter his ashes, it will be difficult to absolve him of his sins!” Scholar Han gritted his teeth and couldn’t help but slam the table angrily.

The few classmates exchanged glances. The scholar in blue comforted him, “Brother Han, my condolences.”

A middle-aged tea drinker beside him seemed to have understood something and asked casually, “Judging from Brother Han’s accent, he seems to be from Yangzhou?”

“I’m from Tailing City in Yangzhou.” Scholar Han’s voice became even more hoarse, and his eyes were bloodshot.

A few of his classmates at the same table looked sympathetic.

They all knew that Scholar Han’s home was in Tailing City. Nine years ago, when the State of Yue’s army raided Yangzhou, Scholar Han was studying in the Bailu Academy and escaped a calamity. However, his family all died in Tailing City.

Scholar Han’s eyes turned even redder. He raised his head and finished the tea in his cup in one gulp, revealing some indescribable grief and indignation.

Nine years ago, before he left home for the academy in the first month, his parents, brother, sister, sister-in-law, and brother-in-law were still chatting happily.

In just three months, Tailing City and the surrounding villages were empty. His parents, brother, sister, sister-in-law, and brother-in-law had all died, and he had become a rootless duckweed. From then on, he was alone… His younger sibling hadn’t even been five years old when she died!

That year, after the State of Yue retreated, he also returned to Tailing City once, only to find that the entire village was empty.

Everyone was dead!

Everyone he knew was dead!

A wave of emotions suddenly covered him and drowned him…

He was filled with anger and sorrow. He gritted his teeth.

If Gu Ce was still alive, he really wanted to eat his flesh and drink his blood. However, Gu Ce was dead. He had died nine years ago and his bones were incomplete…

When they heard that Scholar Han’s home was in Tailing City, everyone was enlightened. They immediately guessed that most of this scholar’s relatives had died in the war nine years ago.

Everyone looked at Scholar Han with sympathy.

The scholar in blue patted Scholar Han’s shoulder and said, “This Second Lady Gu is just a little girl. How can she overturn the case just because she wants to? Most importantly, it depends on the court.”

The others echoed.

Until a strange voice suddenly sounded. “As the saying goes, it’s easy to do things if there’s someone in the court. Second Lady Gu has someone in the court.”

Everyone couldn’t help but look at the owner of the voice, a square-faced middle-aged tea drinker.

“Who?” Someone blurted out. “Could it be Imperial Duke Wei? I heard that Second Lady Gu saved Imperial Duke Wei’s life!”

“Wrong, wrong!” The middle-aged tea drinker sneered and shook his head.

Seeing that everyone’s gaze was on him, he said, “It’s the Eldest Prince.”

“The Eldest Prince?! How is that possible!” The scholar in blue felt that it was impossible. “Back then, the Eldest Prince went to the State of Yue as a hostage because of Gu Ce’s mistake. He stayed there for an entire eight years!”

The person who hated Gu Ce the most should be the Eldest Prince.

“Then you don’t know.” The middle-aged tea drinker took a sip of tea and said slowly, “This woman from the Gu family is impressive.. She charmed the Eldest Prince and is his darling!”
