On the outskirts, a group of people chimed in...
In an instant, chaos erupted...
Mr. Cui shouted loudly: "Deputy Sir, this woman is my wife, and was unjustly insulted. In my moment of panic, I protected her. It is in accordance with both reason and the natural order, my lord..."
Li Yi, the Deputy, scanned the scene with his sharp gaze, having a rough understanding, and his eyes settled on that woman: "Right or wrong, this woman can clarify with a single word! Tell me, are you the wife of this gentleman?"
The woman was about to speak, but suddenly the strength around her throat tightened, and she only managed to say one word: "I..."
Then fell silent.
The Deputy was furious: "Release her!"
Suddenly, a loud shout erupted from the crowd: "This Deputy maliciously favors the dastardly Cui Family, on what grounds can right or wrong be decided by one woman's word?"
